Monk's Corner? says Ilenry Gannett*. in "lMaee Names in the United States"Monek's Corner; town in Berkeley county, South Carolina; named for Thomas Monk, a prominent colonial settler." Descendants of Thomas Monk spoil the name Monk. The present seat of' Berkeley county came by its name, it is said, because it was a corner of the Monk land grant more than two hundred years ago. Thomas Monk, as was the custom of the large landowners of the time, had a small plantation near Charles Town. As early as 1735 Monk's Corner was a thriving British trading post, with several "well-kopt taverns" and several well-stocked stores, branches of Charlcstown establishments, doing business with the neighboring plantations. In the Revolution the British maintained an outpost at Monk's Corner. About two miles from Monk's Corner was built the Santeo canal, in active operation a hundred years ago, and a short distance beydnd Monk's Corner was the; old parish church, known nowadays . as Biggin due to its proximity to; Biggin swamp (the church was built on a knoll between the Biggin and, Wadboo swamps). General Francis Marion utilized; Biggin church as one of his hcfl.d-j quarters in the Revolution. His act- j ivities in the region are part of the j history of the trading post of Monk's; Corner. When Monek's Corner be- j ! i ami' the seat of Berkeley county in the middle 'pd's, supplanting Mount j Pleasant, a jail was built arid into this jail, they say, went bricks from Biggin church. The ruins of Biggin aic meager. By the old church is, the grave of Sir John Colleton, bar-J (.net, -f Devon in England and Fair-| lawn in South Carolina owner of a great tract about the Monk property-! So the old records show that Monk's ! Corner" came into being in the years I while yet the settlers were harassed i by Indians and began to bloom when i by the vote of the people it was ehos-) en the seat of moderjt Berkeley* county. The several "well-kept tav-! erns" and well-stocked stores must have enjoyed a lucrative business from the plantations of early days.! In the Monrks Corner neighborhood | are many evidences of the beginnings j of civilization in those parts. Likely its trading area included The Oaks, county seat of Arthur Middleton, 15 miles away. But jwhy Moncks Corner? Why not Monk's Corner? ? News and Courier. Tom Ward la w. a negro who threw down Andrew Ferguson, a white farmer _f>3 years old, and cut his throat, i in a dispute in a field near Abbeville, j was hunted vigorously by 150 officers j and posse, including a battery of the national guard, and bloodhounds. A negro boy described the murder to; the coroner's jury which charged Wardlaw with the crime. Another negro the boy named as another eye witness was held as a witness in the county jail. The sheriff called out the national guard unit to prevent ai lynching, if and when the negro want-l ed was captured. Yesterday after aj three day man hunt, Wardlaw wasj caught in a swamp in Abbeville county by national guardsmen and escort-: i ed to the penitentiary by several soldiers and two machine guns. 1 1 ? ?April Farm Calendar! With Timely Advice; Clo.mKon College, April 12.?Above f JU.OOU cotton plants are nocessaiy per acre, says K. W. Hamilton, extension! agronomist, to obtain maitimiiiii of j land, labor and fertilizer in growing' cotton; therefore close space the! plants. . A* ' To obtain a good stand, Mr. Hamilton suggests further: Prepare a finely pulverized seedbed. Mix fertilizer thoroughly with the soil. Plant 1.5 to 2 bushels of good seed. Cover seed well at uniform depth. Pray for good weather. Suggestions on horticulture are given by A. E. Sehilletter, on agricultural engineering by J. T. MoAlistor, on insects and diseasos by Alfred Lutken. Horticulture Bed sweet potatoes. Sow tomato seed for midseason and late crops.! Sow asparagus seed for plants to set1 next season. Plant tender vegeta-j hies. Transplant tomatoes, pepper, i etc., in coldframe and gradually hard-; en for setting in the garden later. Fertilize fruit trees and start cultivation. Agricultural Engineering Recondition fertilizer distributors I and planters to insure equal distribution of fertilizer and seed. Hill- j drop planters save seed and chopping j labor. Use two-horse cultivators,: equip them to open furrow, distrib-, ute fertilizer and bod in one operation. Lay ofT rows and plant crops! so as to utilize efficiently labor and j machinery. Clean up, repair and paint buijdings. Insects and Diseases Buy materials and have everything ready for the peach and apple petalfall sprays. Remove codling moth bands and rough' bark from apple trees and burn; secure new bands to attach in May. Disinfect watermelon j seed with one to 1,000 solution of! corrosive sublimate. Control fungus) diseases by spraying with Bordeaux. In setting out plants discard all that; show any evidence of disease. Animal Husbandry (Jive suckling pigs 10 days to eight! weeks old all they want of a well-j balanced ration. Give suckling pigs' access to a creep with a palatable! well-balanced concentrate. Plant soy j beans early in April for hog grazing.: Graze ewes with young lambs on pastures not infested with stomach, worms. Feed lambs grain in a creep in addition to their mothers' milk;' only fat lambs top the market. Feed beef cattle enough while on early pasture to prevent loss in weight. Dairying - Continue liberal grain ration, to cows in milk especially. Plant plenty of corn for ensilage and grain for feed for next winter. Save land forj ample soybean or peavine hay. Keepi cows off pasture in early April to | give pasture good start. Remove all i manure and other fly-breeding rubbish from barn lots and premises. Keep salt boxes in pasture filled. Poultry Brood young chicks on clean ranges and avoid carrying diseases and parasites from old stock to chicks. | Feed chicks liberally a well-balanced ration in clean hoppers. Select best cockerels for next year's breeders. Keep old hens laying by providing a laying mash; get more eggs when prices are low. Horses And Autos How times have changed in this fast age. Men used to carefully look over a horse they contemplated buying. They would look at its teeth, listen to its breathing, inspect its action, manner, and in fact, everything. Nowadays when a man goes to buy a car. he merely steps in and steps on the starter and heads for a filling station.?Clinton Chronicle. According to Dr. William Weston, the large iodine content in vegetables, fruit, milk and oysters has given a tremendous ooost to tne live at home" idea in South Carolina. Thousands, said Dr. Weston, managing director of the South Carolina Nat- j ura! Resources commission, are now growing vegetables at home who formerly purchased them.

U.?Seven youthful negroes under death sentenses for uttacking two white girla near Scuttsboro were denied rehear- j rnga by the Alabama supreme court today and their hopes of escaping ?x-j ecution were narrowed down to two possible avenues ? intervention by. Governor Miller or an appeal to th? United States supreme court. May 13 has been designated as the date for their electrocution. That day was set the supreme court last March 25 in affirming the sen-1 tences and it was unaltered by today's decision. Application for rehearings was ' made by Goorgo Chamlee, of Chattanooga, defense attorney, the day the sentences were affirmed. At the same time he announced an appeal probably would be takon to the Unit-j ed States supreme court in event the , petition was not granted. No intimation has come from Governor Miller that he consider intervening. " I He and various state officials, including justices of the supreme court, have received numerous demands for release of the negroes from this country and abroad. Many of the1 . , i ' messages, received by cable, telegraph and mail, were couched in terms of greatest arrogance and some: even threatened the lives of the of-! ficials. Mrs. Gussie G runner, wealthy St. I.cuis woman, left bequests of $200 . mh to 22 saleswomen in Stores of, that city and $500 to another. For .wars .-he had been telling the sales-women "I will remember *y?u in my will," which was taken as just a ! pleasantry, but when her will was filed it was found that she had done what she said she would do. An appropriation sub-committee swung the congressional economy axe hard on Saturday, chopping off more than a million dollars in the fund asked for prohibition law enforcement. The reduction was part of a demand made that <the $124,000,000 state, justice and commerce and labor departmental bill appropriation be cut at least 10 per cent. As a result of the flying machine accident at North Grafton, Mass., last week, Captain Frank Hawks, noted speed aviator, will be out for six weeks. He sustained two fractures of the lower jaw, a broken nose, wounds in the face and gasoline burns, when his machine struck a stone fence as he was making an effort to start on a flight. Seven Italian flyers were killed near Rome Friday when two tri-motored planes fell on the Lonato Posuolo airdrome after a collision in the air. POISON in Your bowels!
