AT tin noiw Ti'^?Av (Continued from flrat pa ge.) lie wa? for a large food supply at the least possible cost, and her? lit the Ho u th we could have fresh veg etable* every day In tbe year and therefore would have very little ue?d t or tinned food. On account of the different thing* of which our bodies are made . we need the different, food principle*. Food principles is the name we give to the different kind* of food* we have at* protein food*, carbohydrate*', fats and mineral matter. The pro ton looda are the onea from which we get nitrogen, the muecle build ing element. Dean* have this mus cle building element In a large de gree, for about 90 per cent, is pro tein. Collard and cabbage have only about half per cent of nitro gen, ho when we live on cabbage and cowards all. winter bowman we expect to grow big and v strong? For this reason i( is necessary to have some vegetables in winter be sides cabbage and col lards,' Beans can be planted now and can be gathered and drl&T for win ter use. Beets will mature if plant ed at once, and will b,e ready for fall and early winter use. Spinach can also be grown in winter garden. Miss Peck offered to help the g'.ils with their winter gardening if they would write her. Mr. Carberry, of Greenville, then gave the girls an interesting talk on the growing, spraying and cul tivation of the tomato plants, Mr. Carberry said that the only way to escape the high cost of liv ing was to become a producer. The*4 is an increase of 20 per cent in food production,' and an increase of 21 per cent in population.. For this reason more i ?ople will have to produce their own food. To prevent the diseases so com mon to tomatoes they should never be planted In he Bame place two " years in succession. The seed should be planted In a hot bed and then put into a cold frame so as to harden them before planting out into the fields- The field should be well drained, and the soil medium and light, but any soil seems to suit tomatoes. A soil not", well- drained makee-4nsects and disease more troublesome than they would be otherwise. A little Bordeaux mixture can be used on the plants at first, and also a lit tle air-slaked lime. The fertilizer used should be slightly low In ni trogen and high in phosphoric acid. The plants should be put in a little trench and the top bent up, leaving a stem about 6 or 6 inches long in the ground with about 3 inches above ground.' They should not be planted too close together, so that the air can not circulate free ly between them. The suckers that come in between the leaf stems and the main stem should be pruned out with a sharp knife. " Then the plapts can be staked.. Tomatoes should bare frequent rapid cultivation to form earth mulch. This keeps the plant grow ing longer. ' .Two tomatoes were brought In from Mr. F. H. Arrants* place that showed what Kershaw could do in tomato growing. The largest of these tomatoes which were on ex hibit at the court houfio, weighed 21 ounces. This should encourage every girl in the county to continue her work and Interest the people who are waiting to see if it will be a success. We are glad that there were some farmers, their daughters and sons who .could leave the grass for JuBt one day and spend that in learning how to make better cropB next year. We are also glad to say that there are two mothers in Kershaw county who. are Interested in the boys and girls, and could show that Interest by attending the meeting of the institute. We are sorry tha.t more of the mothers could not be present. l>eath of Mr. Kelly. Mr. M. P. Kelly who left Ker shaw county about 20 years ago to make his home in Oklahoma, died on the 20th of June. Mr. Kelly was about 69 years of age and was a brother of Mr. S. F. Kelly, of Can tey Hill. He served with true loy > alty through the entire Civil war, having rendered active service in thirty-two battles and skirmishes. The burial took place at his home in Oklahoma. ; ramoMAii hkntiow. ? i ItoM of Interest Conoerntoc Cttjr and Ommtf People. ' ' " Mlus Nan Young la vlalttng at DeKalb. ...

'. ^ Speed of Automobile**. The ease with which an automo bile Is driven causes the careless} owner to forget how ponderous ? swift and dangerous an instrument he is guiding. He is running a huge and complicated machine fre quently without the skill or train ing that are demanded as prereq uisite for such occupations. A turn of a lever will increase jthe speed, but unfortunately a quick stop or change of direction is not equally easy. Before he knows it he is running two swift for the wel fare of pedestrians. This may occur without a moment's consciousness of the risk. Moreover, the occupant of an easy running, powerful car is not aware of the speed at which he Is traveling. Good streets and a fine spring above inflated tires con spire to make him overlook how nar row often is the escape of a pas serby. A woman may be trembling for an hour from her leap out of the way, although the rider himself may have laughed at It, In addi tion, all of the small discomforts are unshared in by the occupants. The dust is left behind, and the odor never noticed. If these things do attract his attention, he Judges of them only as the necessary evils accompanying his hurried passage. But a pedestrian may have to en dure an almost continous shower of dust and a stteady gust of foul smelling gas on the rofcd or sitting in the park. ? Richmond Times.

How ever, if one hu the time and lucli nation to take the proper precau tions very little difficulty will be ex perienced In preparing the frtHi. Huccesa lies In the proper selec tion of specimens for preservation. At much, if not more, depends up on the formula used. Never allow Hpcclmeue to become fully mature and, to meet with the best success, they should be placed In th+ pre serving fluid fully two days before thoroughly ripened. The fruits se lected shbuld be In the best possi ble condition and without blemish of any kind. After washing in clear, cold wa ter to remove all dust, dirt, spores or other foreign matter/ place care fully in the receiving Jar. ' Avoid handling the specimens any more than Is really necessary. After fill ing the Jar as full as possible with out bruising the fruit, the liquid should be poured in. Home writers recommend' straining the liquid through several layers of oheese cloth. This Is a gOod plan. Make the lid air tight and place In a dark room at a temperature of $0 to 40 degrees Jft The jars ehqtUd be examined every few days and if found fermenting the liquid should be removed, the fruit rinsed, and new liquid used, varying the propor-l tlon of chemicals. The following formulas have been, used successfully In preparing fruit for exhibition: 1. To vegetables such ad squashes, cucumbers, onions, dissolve one pint] of pure clean table * table salt In every gallon of water used. Allow this solution to sttand twelve hours then strain through several layers of cheese cloth and pour over vege tableB. r ? * *?*? ~ , 1. L ?, 2. For strawberries, raspberries, and currants use clear water-white kerosene, but be sure ' that no wa ter remains on the berries. 3. For - pears, peaches, and plums use one> quart of glucose and one half ounce of formaldehyde to every gallon of water. 4. For apples use one and a half ounces of formaldehyde to ev ery gallon of water. 6. For fruit In general, use one pint of glycerine, five ounces pow dered borax to Jevery gallon . olT wa ter, then after fifteen days add two ounces formaldehyde to eaqk^gfllon for dark fruits, and twO onnoes of sulphurous acid to all light colored fruits. C. C. VINCENT, Associate Prof, of Horticulture. Formerly With Camden. The defeat of Rube Marquard by Chicago Monday -after winning nine teen straight games, 'was of . more than ordinary interest to the people of Camden, due to the fact that he was opposed by Lavender,* of Chica go, who was one of the best .pitch ers Camden had during the State League, when this city won the pen nant. Lavender Is classed as one of the best pitchers in the Nation al league, having won nearly all of his games. "Rube" Benton, who is also one of the best pitchers in the National league, is another old Cam den player. He worked in a cotton mill here and pitched on a fast amateur team the year after the State league went to pieces. Al though he was' only seventeen, he was easily classed as one of the best amateurs in South- Carolina. Jamie Lavender halls from Barnesvllle ,Ga., where he first be gan to break into the limelight as a pltoher. He played on the Gordon prep school team at that place Jxk 1904 and later took up semi-prb ball and finally drifted to the Eastern League, where he was picked up last season by the Cubs. Since his first time out Lavender has been hurling big league Sail and is pro bably the best young hurler that, broke Into the game this season* Why He Was Crazy. The following was contributed by a subscriber who got the clipping from an old ne^Npaper: A man In the Insane asylum gives the following reasons why he is crazy : . "I met a young widow with a step daughter, and the widow mar ried me. Then my father, who was a widower, met my step daughter and married her. That made my wife the mother in law of her fath er In law, and made my step daugh ter my mother and my father my step son. Then my step mother, the step daughter of my wife, had a son. That boy, of course, was my brother because he was my fa ther's son. He was also the son of my wife's step daughter, and there fore her grand son; that made to<* grand father to my Btep brother. Then my wife had a son. $$7 mother in law, the step sister of my son, Is also h|s grandm j<hcr, be cause he is her step sor.'s child; My father is the brother In law of my child, because his bte^ sistc^>4s his wife. I am the brother of my own son, who Is also the child of my step grand mother. I ant my mother's brother In law. My wife is her own child's aunt. My son is my father's nephew, and I am my own grand father. And attteir trying to explain the relationship In our family some seven times ? day to our calling friends for fortnight, was brought here ? came of jny owp f re* will." ^ Mrs. J. B.
