Every week the puper?this paper < any other?has typographical errors and there is always soineouc ready i laugh mirthlessly over it and hold tl paper up to scorn and say a blacl smith could do a better job with bot hands tied, and proceed to bawl out tl editor publicly. And the editor, heir meek In spirit and lowly, grins a suj grin as if be liked it because he knot* the utter futility of explaining. The he goes back to the shop and bites nail in two or eats a wooly worm 1 relieve his feelings; and Anally wo) dere how his tormentors would fee 6hould be turn critic and point out tli typographical errors, so to sjseak, i the make-up of the hilarious one: Jim Boots shaved him self and la: Sunday appeared at church with patch of unshaven whiskers under tl angle of his jaw the size of a grow man's thumb; Sis Stiggins bad her be on crooked and the shoestring on he uu.*itr>h Khnwed thoruirh what little rei hair she had left. The underskirt the belle of the village hung on one sl<] a full Inch below the bottom of li dress; Amrl Toots, one of our bes known city gtnits, walked down tl aisle with long raveling hanging I his coat tall; old Klienezer Stone ha polished the front compartment of h store until he could see his rettectic home while his shoe heels had not ha a treatment since he bought them lu ? summer a year ago and they bore tract and the odor of a barnyard; Billy 1 Damm, who ordinarily dosen't git three whoops for anything and doesn care Who knows it, blushed a rosy re when, walking with his best girl, l produced a washrag from his i>ock< Instead of his handerkchlef; Mb Peachle Peasherlno, who is risln'thlrt; five and near-sighted, wafted a kiss f a traveling man getting on the trai under the Impression that it was In brother who departed from our midi on the same common carrier. As th poet remarks, we are all i>oor crlttei and prone to errors of make-up eve as the sparks fly upward; and all goo and true editors instead of iinpnlin the kit and bhundle on his harpoon t get good and even once for all, wl again next week smile his feeble sui grin when he Is roasted and let it g at that. An editor hasn't much sen* anyway. That's why he is an editor. In a small city like this the vice c rash judgement is altogether too con mon. Where i>eople know nearly a their fellow citizens there are som who are so ungracious and so un-Chh tian as to attribute an evil inotiv when the actions are prompted by tb best of motives, and they are rathe disposed to relish a rumor that reflect against a neighbor. Everybody con mits indiscretions, either wilfully o through ignorance or weakness; be harsh criticism and rash judgement do not help the offender, but shove hh down. The golden rule should be ai plied in such cases. The quite tidility with which a woma will dishwash her life away for he husband and children is a marvel c endurance. Here is the servitude ( women heaviest, no sooner is her wor done than it requires to be done agaii Men take jobs, work on them, finis them, and they are over for good an all. The prospect of ending tliom an drawing pay for the labor is allurin but no such allurements are held < for the wife. She washes Monday til same garments until there is notliin more of them to wash: then they ui replaced by others of new materh just like them, and the rubbing an wringing goes on forever. She mend the stockings with tireless fidelity, tli same holes minding her gaze week afte week, for If there is a "darned" plain a sock "he" invariably puts hi irrepressible toe /brought it.

The same socks, the same wasl ing, the same room every time.

At each point livestock pens are . s< under construction. These cities are ii concentration and Belling points. A : b man raising cattle and hoks will ship e them for market to the one of these ' ii T points nearest to him. The railroads h :s have granted what is known as a sell- i n i- ing-in-transit rate which will help ir greatly in reducing the cost of trans- o portation. In short, the facilities for tl marketing are already here. o Buyers Coming Here. fl W. W. Long, state agent and direc- o 1 tor of extension at Clemson College, has made arrangements with a number of prominent stock buyers of the east- j, n em markets to attend the sales in 0 .r South Carolina. There will be two j sales periods this season, one a mid- !n f winter sale and the other a spring sale, and the buyers will come to n South Carolina on these two occasions c and go from one to another of the cen- p h tral market points. This reverses the ji (1 older order of things, under vhich the s South Carolina farmer shipped his cat-' fj ,, tie to eastern markets and trusted to ^ his luck for what he could get for ! |. them. tl ,e This co-operative marketing plan i fi ^ has received wide attention outside 's '' the state and a number of leading Is '' farm nublications have noticed It fav- |g <1 orahly. It is also considered by the tl Is T'nlted States department of agrlcul- | ?ro ua nnp of the best methods possi- fl T Mo of developing the livestock Industry d of the South. i t Illustrated posters were sent from fi IS OlemFon College late In July urging tl farmers to select their feeders In Aug- v r. ust. In response to this, many people jti y wrote to the college asking where o j feeders could he purchased and ex- C n pressing their intention to buy.

Farmers who have not yet selected leir feeders should do so at once. In (loosing feeders, look for the animal 1th the blocky form. Do not take ingy, leggy stuff with shallow bodies. he constitution of the animal has an nportant bearing on hfs value as a jeder. This is IndicatW by a short, road head, broad muzzle, open nos ils, large heart girth pnd clear eye. ook especially at the hjead, as the reminder of the animal generally correponds to the head. Pick a short, road head. Another important pcjint is feeding apacity. Just as a dairy cow is a lachine for turning feed into milk, o is a beef animal a machine for turnlg feed into beef. Select feeders with ig feeding capacity. Quality, which is Important also, is idicated by general form, fineness of air, size of bone and horn and thick ess of skin. Farmers who have stock of their wn breeding are advised to keep tiem for feeding and not to sell them ff grass this fall. It is profitable to nish cattle. The finished steer is the ne that brings the most money. Care or cattle. The care of feeding cattle la most nportant. There Is much truth in the Id Flemish proverb that "the eye of he master fattens his cattle." Two ion may give their cattle exactly tha a me feed. yet one lot of stuff may dc lueli better than another, merely beausp of the difference in care. One oint to remember is to watch the catle closely for scours. When an animal cours the chances are that it is getlug too much feed or unbalanced feed, inother point to be observed is reguirlty of feeding and watering. LetIng a steer go several hours past its ending time may cause it to gorge itelf to such an extent as to develop erious trouble with Its digestion. In eneral, a safe rule is that the cattle hat are best cared for will fatten best. The feeding of the cattle and hogs or these co-operative markets will be irected by the demonstration and exension forces of Clemson College. The ending will be supervised directly by he county demonstration agents, rhile all special cases will receive atention from the livestock specialists f the extension division of Clemson 'ollege.

CHERA At E\ PETE'S BUSY DAY. _ Mr. Peter Zonal*, who operates the *? Busy Bee Cafe, had a busy day of It last Friday. Things began to get lively with hiiu when he started u long-drawn out one round bout with a fellow citizen. Pete emerged from this scrap more or less battered though still in a fair state of health. But trouble was not yet though with him for a few minutes after when he started to light his gasoline stove the thing exploded, throwing flames in- . to the unfortunate man|s face. He was badly burned and his life seemed threatened for a time. But Pete is again able to attend to business.?Chesterfield Advertiser, 0. e THE NEXTBEST THING TO THE TINE FOREST FOR COLDS IS? '. I)r.
