laat part of the game, when Aiken
retained the lead by a coal and a
foul by Camden. The team work
of both teams was remarkable, n
large crowd was present, and the
game waa exciting.
During every minute of the game
a brilliant play was pulled off by
both teams, which came In for con
siderable applause. One minute the
ball would be near Aiken's gosl post

At the regular monthly meeting
of the City Council last Monday
night, a committee was appointed
to look into the advisability of es
tablishing a central slaughtering
pen, and to report at ? the . next
meeting. Council waived the usual
1100. carnival license for tbo Adams
Amusement Company, which wishes
to show here during horse show
week, as part of the proceeds will
go Uy tho fire department.
Mayor Braslngton in a speech be
fore the voters recently said that
he was in favor of a central slaugh
tering pen, as It is possible now to
butcher and sell diseased cattle.
He said that he thought the slaugh
tering pen would cost the City
about $8,000.

Clemson, B. C., March 4. ? Now
is the* time to get rid of the trou
blesome cut-worms. Do not wait un
til they are ruining your stand of
cotton and corn and then attempt
to control them; . for then/ there is
little that can be done. In the
fields where they did damage last
year, plow the laud deep (his spring
for the worms which are going to
give you trouble are now in little
rounded cells in the soil, dug out
for their protection last fall when
cold weather came on. This deep
plowing will turn many of the
worms under so that they will nev
er be able to get to the surface to
do any damage. Not all of them
will be killed in this way. Exper
ience has shown that it is a good
plan to follow this up by an addi
tional measure. About planting
time, in cle^r* weather, cut any
fresh, green material which may be
about the place, preferably clover,
and dip this Into a barrel of poison
solution, made by dissolving one
pound of Paris green (the substance
that is used foi* killing potato bugs) !
In fifty gallons of water. In the
late afternoon, scatter this poison
~ " '
ed vegetation lightly over the worst
Infested acres so that It will not
wilt too quickly. Th? starved cut
worms, having had no food all the
winter, come out at night and eat
I this greedily, and are poisoned. De
fer chopping tho cotton or thinning
the corn as long as possible; for
the greater the amount of food the
worms can get, the quicker they
will mature, change into a "candle
fly," and cease to trouble" the crop'
Frequent shallow cultivatl&n, as
cloae to th-j young plants as can be
done' without injury to them, also
proves a check to the work of these
pests. The best permanent way,
however, to hand? them is^y rota*
ficnl cf cropn, practicing deep fan
plowing, thorough spring preparatlo
and' by keeping the land covered In
winter with some cover crops, such
as rye and vetch, or better still,
crimson clover, if it can be grown.
Such steps as theso will rid the
land of the cut-w'onns and at the
same time this extra cultivation will
Improve the land. 4
The problem in the garden is a
somewhat more difficult one, but
the same methods apply. An im
portant point to observe is to put
plants badly affected, such as cab
bage, as far away from . ibflr last
year's place of planting as is prac
ticable.

WkM at o mr Jaet meet
!?< to prepare ud read t paper
on **Troaa end TU<*?? Beat Buiit4
to This Sect ton," X told you that 1
knew very little aboet them. Since
then 1 have ttouKn ?v< |; the matter ,
and conclude that thla la a vast j
'subject, too large to he handled in
a abort paper and by one so poorly _
equipped. jHowerer. as I am in ful ,
sympathy with the alms and ob-,
Ject for which thla L*aagne was first
organised , I feel constrained to
act. in the language of Browning?
"Aspire. break bouifde. 1
say; Endeavour to be good,
and better still, And beet. Bnp
cese la naught, and endea
vours all,"
My "endeavour" will be In a]
plain untechnlcal and desultory way ;
what would the Garden of Eden !
have been / without trees? Then, i
perhaps, certain of our progenitors!
may not have been tempted and to j
fall. The Israelites during their ?
wanderlnga, when asked for a song, i
"hung their harps upon the willows,
and wept when they remembered j
Zlon." Evidently there were trees |
in those daya. It is said that the,
last words of the Immortal Jaeksonj
were "JLet us cross over the r!ver j
and rc-at unuer ine sbur.^ of the,
trees." What did he mean? a$e
we to conclude from his known re- j
Ugious fervor that he bad visions
of the beautiful and umbraegeous
trees In the Celestial City? Tim?'
bers from the cedars of Lebanon
were used In the construction of
Solomon's temple.
So we see that trees occupy quite '
a niche In the history of the world, j
They are God's own handiwork,
and should command - our highest
regard and kind attention.
Now, more particularly to the sub .
Ject matter under cohsideration ?
Someone has said, "Grow those
treee Indigenous to the soil." Howj
are we to know such? lima history
or tradition told us who built the
mounds? No. The Indians when
asked by the -first white man re
plied, "We found them here." Yes,
and we found many different kinds
and varieties of trees here. Many
trees have their story or legend In
regard to origin, etc. I have often
heaad that the weeping willow was
first brought here by some one who
was traveling in Europe and on
visiting the tomb of the Great Na
polean plucked a sprig and from
that they h&ve spread. I know full
wfcli from practical experience that
they grow readily from cuttings.
The weeping willow is quite an or
namental tree, but like some people,
rather top-heavy, and easily blown
over by Btorms. I like evergreen
trees. How refreshingly they break
the dull gray monotony of the leaf
lees forest in winter ? giving life,
variety and beauty to the landscape.
