Guess I’ll go out alone. Won der if I’ll get a letter from home to day? I ought to do a little washing tonight, but I think I’ll let it go until tomorrow night. I’d like to dance somewhere tonight. Hope Jeff calls. He’s about the best dancer I know. Perhaps he will take me to that new Chinese-American place tonight. Guess I’ll fix up for lunch. By that time it will be twelve. Oh, darn, I forgot my lipstick. Well, everyone tells me I look better without it any way. Must get a new hat. This green looks terrible with this dress. Wonder if I need a coat? It looks sort of cool. Those girls make me tired—always talking about someone. Some service on this elevator. My lunch hour will be up before I get downstairs. That dumb-bell didn’t knok enough to take that cigar out of his mouth. Glad he isn’t my hus band. That man over there is good looking, but he probably knows it and is conceited. I’d hate to marry a good-looking man. Most of them are selfish. Think I’d rather have one not so good-looking. However, I’ll never get married. If I do it will be Jack, because he’s about the nicest man I know. Wonder if he would be willing to move out of the city ? Can you beat that! There’s a dress just like my Irene Castle model. $19.75, and I paid $49.75 for mine. You can’t be exclusive these days no* matter how much you pay for a dress. I’m not a bit hungry today. Think I’ll go down to Allen’s and look at that $1.75 Duvetyn. Two and a half yards would make me a dress. If I buy it I’ll have to borrow seme money. Helen will let me have five—I guess. Gee, what a crowd! I can’t get near a table. That lady will look terrible in that red. Perhaps it isn’t for her. I like this piece a lot. Guess I’ll take it. $1.75 a yard—-two and a half yards will cost about $4.50. Just my luck—if there had been enough in that piece I would have bought it, and I hate to borrow money. Well, guess I’ll go back to the office. Want to leave early if the boss will let me. Mrs. Alah Benjamin spent the week-end with her brother, Mr. T.- R. Adair, near Laurens. Mrs. J. J. Ballenger, of Seneca, spent several days recently with her daughter, Mrs. B. 0. Whitten. The many friends of Miss Florrie Burdette will be glad to know that she has returned home after sev eral weeks’ stay at the Columbia hos pital. INSURE TODAY Bull Convicted at Unique Trial THOROUGH WORK Court of Bovine Justice At tracts Big Crowd in Frank lin County, Pa. in the — Shenandoah LIFE INSURANCE CO. OF ROANOKE, VA. Strong as the OLD DOMINION Strictly a Southern OrganizatUw. Operating Only in the South. E. BEARD . Representative ^Linton, s. c. phone sie (Prepared by the United State* De partment of Agriculture.) Although the live stock of the com munity was , of such good quality that It was difficult to find a worthy “pris oner." the mock trial of a scrub bull recently staged at Waynesboro, Pa., drew an audience of more than a thou sand persons. The advertising club of the chamber of commerce, the Franklin County Farm bureau, and the county agent had charge of arrange ments. The trial was conducted ac cording to an outline furnished by the United 4 States Department of Agricul ture. Preceedincs Realistic. Local legal talent made the court proceedings realistic. The sheriff and his force of deputies "arrested” the hull and otherwise aided In conducting court order. For the convenience of busy farmers the trial was held at 7 o’cjj*ck In the evening. The merchants of Waynes boro held a “dollar day." which was widely advertised, with the scrub-bull trial, as an auxiliary attraction. Twen ty-five hundred card Invitations were mailed and 500 colored posters adver tised the event. The trial- took place on-an electric- ilg'ited platform erected in the hall park. Band music add'd to the enter tainment and the services of the hoy scouts were enlisted to handle the truffle, a dairy-cattle specialist from the deimrtnient of'agriculture acted as expert witness for the prosecution. Court of Bovine Justice. A jury of 12 men tendered a verdict of guilty after hearing the evidence laid before the court of bovine justice. The prosecution showed the detrimen tal effect which scrub bulls have on the dairy Industry, it then described the prosperity and other benefits brought by pure bred hulls and pleaded forcefully for conviction. The defense consisted largely of ora tory aided by music and poetry ns vain resorts to save the prisoner from doom. One witness for the defense failed to Impress the Jury when he testified that the scrub bull was u great labor-saving device. His daughters giving less milk required fewer palls and cans a^id were more quickly milked. How a Clinton Citizen Found Freedom From Kidney Troubles. If you suffer from backache— From uninary disorders— Any curable disease of the U^eys, Use a tested kidney remedy; Doan’s Pills have been tested by thousands. Clinton people testify. Ask your neighbor! Can you ask more convincing proof of merit? Mrs. J. L. McNeill, 87 Musgrove Pills will do and Itaohrdltaohrdltaoh St., says: “I know what Doan’s Pills will do and I am pleased to recom mend them to anyone who needs a kidney medicine. I was subjected to rheumatic pains and my kidneys didn’t act right. My back was pain ful at times, too, and I was dizzy and nervous. I used Doan’s ; PilIs and they made me entirely well.” SEVEN YEARS LATER, Mrs. Mc Neill added; “I think as much of Doan’s Pills now, as I did when I recommended them before. They cured meof a bad case of kidney trouble and I advise anyone sulfer- this remedy a trial.” 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mffs., Buffalo, N. Y. WHAT DO P. S. JEANS DO? I CLINTON, ONE DAY ONLY Cutting Soy Beans for Hay With Common Mower Soy beans for hay may be out any time after the pads are formed and before tunny of the leaves begin to fall. Too early cutting lowers the yield and late cutting reduces the qual ity of the hay. They may be cut with an ordinary mower, allowed to wilt for a day In the swath, and the curing completed In the windrows, advises II. R. Sumner, agronomy specialist, Kan sas State Agricultural college. Harvesting the seed crop should start when half or three-fourths of the leaves have fallen and most of the pods have changed color. This rule will vary somewhat with the season, variety and harvester used. If the crop is allowed to get over-ripe much loss will result from shattering, he says. The beans may be harvested with either a grain or corn binder or a mower with side delivery attachment. Care In handling 4s necessary to pre vent shattering. The crop should be shocked, capped, and allowed to stand for at least two weeks before thresh ing. Si ticking soy henns Is a good practice, says the agronomist Insure New Seeding of Alfalfa by Using Care The first winter is the testing time for a new seeding of alfalfa. Whether the stand comes through successfully depends largely on how well It was es tnbllshed In the fall. The greater the growth, the less likely will th6 stand suffer from winter-killing. The experiences of many farmers have demonstrated that acid phos phate of a high analysis fertilizer ap plication at seeding time is good In surance for the new seeding. Alfalfa Is very responsive to phosphorus fer tlllzel-s. Most soils are deficient in phosphorus. Fertilizer enables the young alfalfa plants to obtain an early vigorous growth. Fertilizer, however, does not make up for poor seed, lack of preparation of the seed bed, or lack of lime. Liming Is Often necessary for best results with fertilizer. Wherever liming Is needed, phosphorus Is quite likely to be needed also. The application of 200 to 400 pounds of fertilizer per acre before seeding thoroughly mixed in with the soy. Is L,one of the best investments that can be made to Insure success with alfalfa. Conserve Soil Moisture by Keeping Down Weeds One of the principal steps In con serving sol! moisture in the garden la keeping down all weed growth. This may he done either by cultivation ot 6y mulching. If a mulching system Is used, from three to six Inches of straw or hay is spread on the suftace of the ground. In addition to preventing weak .growth, n mulch of this kind, serves to prevent evaporation from the surface soil and so conserves the maximum of water. The soil under such a mulch In the college orchard was found to be well supplied with moisture after a month of drought In the summer of UL2L \ Only Big 3 Ring Circus Coing Positively Presented as Advertised THE COLLEANO FAMILY OF AUSTRALIA Special Acts by 11 Famous Artists Direct From the Lon don Coliseum Engagement DOWNIE’^ FAMOUS ELEPHANTS MAXIMO The World’s Greatest Wire Walking Artist Wearer of I)f;umond Medal Presented by King of Siam LONDON COLISEUM EQUESTRIAN SENSATION A Complete Somersault from Ground to Running Horse Miss Hazel Hickey With' her Champion High Jumping Horses.
