Some Typographical Errors.
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. Ever;
morning the rooms are put in orde:
only to be in the wildest disorder b
the time night falls. There are n
jobs, each one dilTerent, no terms, n
pay. The same socks, the same wasl
ing, the same room every time.
A young woman in Gibson City, Illi*
nois, has resigned her i>osition as ed
2 teacher in the public schools for the th
purpose of going as a missionary to ik?
^ Africa. Why should she go so far lol
ir when Chicago is so near, and where uii
there are more heatherns to the square "1
= yard than there are in Africa to the qu
twelve square mile. Strange ideas of
missionary work these school mui-^

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

South Carolina farmer shipped his cat-' fj

lg farmers so to arrange their fiances
that they can feed some cattle
his fall and winter.
How to Select Feeders.
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.

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.
