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.

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.

^ To preee typ fruit and vegetable*
for exhibition In order that theV
m*y appear iu their natural *ondk
tlon In a process little understood
by the majority of people. 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 ?
