Making two fish hwIwi wh?r? only
one witH tbere to bite Ih the aim of
thu Florence county sportsmen. and j
v they back their desire with a line little
hatchery providing black bans, red
breast and Muck!!! bream for their
waters.
Lust Friday the hatchery whs drained
for the third time and ith young
tlsh removed. Just 50,000 blue gills
and redbreast flngerllngs measuring
from l wo to Ave Inches In length were
gathered and planted in Buitnble
streams. These bream were hatched
r * 1
last summer and have been holvj in
the rearing pond until this time, with
the result that sizeable fish wore released
instead of fry.
The production Of bass has been
Just as successful, Previous plantings
have numbered another 50,000, and
the first year 20,000.
Six places on Lynches river between
Leo and Hudson bridges were
visited by the local river fishermen
and cans full of blue gills and red
breasts released. Plantings w<}ro
made at threu points on Jefferies
creek, and the folks from Black Creek
section came to the hatchery and curried
back fish for several places along
this famous stream.
The Florence county hatchery was
built three years ago hh a Joint project
of the Florence county game and
fish chapter and the Fred II. Sexton
Post No. I, American Legion, with the
aid of the Florence county emergency
relief forces. Five acres are under
water, with three species propagated
-- the black baHH, the blueglll and red
breasted bream. The
cost of the liatchery la plated
at four thousand dollara. If the money
value of the 130,000 flngerllngs ao far
released 1h three cents each, the cost
of the project la almost paid for in
three yours in fish alonef with ttye
plant atill Intact and Improved, and
the purent stock Increased and still
on hand. In these figures the value
of the pleasure given sportsmen by
the Increased llshiness of the waters
has not been estimated.

John (Maussen, Dr. L. M. Dido and
T. Ilakor Haynesworth, Sr., president

Changes In Details
Of New Farm Plan
Cletnson, April 27.?'"Revisions of
t hf? now farm program announced
from Washington during the last ten
days are largely a liberalization of
certain conditions and a rewording to
make certain details clearer," says
W. Hamilton, assistant to Director
I>. W. Watkins. "Those farmers
who attend one or more of the community
or county meetings held by
the county agents during the past
thi'ei- weeks need not be disturbed
over tln-xe revisions, it' the informu
tiou and instructions given in the
meetings are carried out by the farmers,
they will fully qualify under the
revised regulations.
"One of tho changes made in the
revised regulations is that for each
acre left out of a soil-depleting crop
for which an application for a grant
will be militf, there must be on the
farm an acre planted to soli-conserving
crops." Mr. Hamilton explains. It
was previously required that an acreage
equal to 20 per cent of the soildepleting
base be planted to soil-conserving
crops. Under the new ruling
this 20 per cent does not meet
the requirements in certain cases. If
a farmer has a hundred acres of a
soil-depleting base in cotton and he
leaves out 25 acres, lie must now have
an acreage equal to 35 acres planted
to soil-conserving crops, not just 20
per cent of the hundred acres as under
the old ruling.' This change,
however, will not require the planting
of a greater acreage of soil-conserving
crops than the llrst instructions
called for, because under the
revised regulations the soil-depleting
base devoted to the production of food
and feed crops for home consumption
may be subtracted from the total soil
depleting base of the farm and the
minimum requirements in acreage of
soil conserving crops is calculated on
tlie "diftereuco. Corn grown for home
consumption is no longer considered
in arriving at the soil-depleting base
for the farm."
.. The county agents' offices, through
The county and community committeemen.
are this week setting up commodity
headquarters for the convenience
of the farmers in making out
the work sheet that is necessary if a
farmer Is to make luter application
for a grant.
Negroes Uncover Buried Treasure
St. Matthews, April 25.?Yesterday
while negroes wore plowing on Singleton.
the home place of O. Henry
Wienges. one of the negro hands
plowed up a silver dollar, which caused
great deal of excitement. As soon
as the negroes quit work that afternoor
they immediately rushed to the$
spot where they plowed up the dollar
and began their search for more.
During the shuffle 16 silver dollars
and a half dime were found, and all
dated from 1X60 to 1894.
Some of the money was very dark
but others were very shiny and newlike.
During the spare time every
man, woman and child on the place
takes some kind of a digging implement
and hie to the spot for a strike.
New York police are soaking a lira,

REV. JOHN P. GRAHAM
(An Appreciation by Dr. J 0. Dill In
Baptist Courier)
Kurly associations with the same
town will easily draw two hearts together.
At the time of my senior
year at Howard College, Marlon, Alabama,
It/ame to pass (April 27, 1874)
that John P. Graham was born to
Alexander and Mary Goree Graham,
u prominent family of the old town.
He came of goodly atock, for the Grahams
and- the Gorees were of the
choicest of those who made of Marlon
the Haptlst Athens of Alabama.
8o he was bom to the goodly heritage
of a Christian home and a cultured
environment. His father died when
he was quite young, and his early life
was spent with relative^ In Alabama
and Florida.
He was early converted and dedicated
his life to the Gospel of Christ,
"whereof he was made a minister."
His collegiate education was at Stet*
fcon University, at Deland, Florida,
and his preparation for the ministry
at the Southern Baptist Seminary.
Thus he entered well equipped for his
sacred calling when he, at. the age of
twenty-four, accepted the <iall to the
pastorate of Daytona, Florida (18981904.)
It was here on July 7, 1903,
that he was married to Miss Janet
Freeman of Middleton, Conn. Through
all the years of his ministry she was
to him God's holy gift of help.
In 1904 he was called to Walterboro,
S. C., and remained In South
Carolina six years, also serving two
other churches, Four Holes and Pine
Grove, near Walterboro. He then returned
to Florida and for six years
jitn-ved several churches ..at Brooksville
in that state (1910-1916). But
having once tasted of thq brotherly
fellowship in the Palmetto state he
turned a listening ear to a second
call to Walterboro, S. C., and spent
witii them a pleasant pastorate of live
years (19161921.) Jt was at this time
that 1 first met John Graham. He
was at his home In Walterboro. I
was traveling for The Baptist Courier,
and knocked at Ills door. 1 was given
a cordial greeting. We were soon
talking of the good old home town of
Marlon, Ala., and the good people wo
knew there. We were drawn together
as by hooks of steel becuuse we
were from the same town and knew
the same people.
John Graham was a good minister
of Jesus Christ. From the pulpit lie
presented clearly and ftjucibly the
simple gospel that drew sinners to
thi' cross, and lie also emphasized the
ideals of Christian living that made
for a perfect manhood in Christ Jesus.
As a pastor he had the
shepherd heart, and knew how to
sympathize In sorrow and help In
time of need. He both preached and
lived the Christian life. He was of a
kind and gentle disposition, and set
before his community in his example
the best expression of his teaching
nnd his faith. HIb was a strong,
beautiful and triumphant faith in his
Master, and the things his Master
taught him. "His doctrine and his
life coincident was proof he was honest
In the sacred cause." His people
loved him because he loved them.
John Graham gave the best of his
ministry to South Carolina. From
Walterboro he came to the church at
Piedmont in the Greenville Association,..
(1921-1924). Under the guiding
hand*'of God he was then led to the
First Baptist Church of Camden. This
historic and cultivated community he
served for five years (1924-1929).
Fasily he found his way to the hearts
of these people and was much beloved.
Ho was then called to St. Matthews.
where he also served for live
years (1929-1934). All hi all he gave
twenty years of his best ministry, onethird
of his life of sixty years, to
South Carolina. He loved the Palmetto
State, and was beloved hv all
who knew him.
Faced by failing health ho resigned
his work at St. Matthews and retired
to his farm near Hartsville. S. C. But
this was not for long. Slowly he descended
to the river's brink. He lingered
for a time In the care of a hospital
in Columbia. Tuesday, March
the third, was the time of his home
Roing. A large company of his sorrowing
brethren nnd friends bore him
to the Baptist Church in Camden
where wero^ held appropriate services.
His mortal part was laid to rest in
the cemetery at Camden. Let no one
say that John Graham is dead. The
Master he served has said "Whosoever
believeth in Me shall never die."
He never was so much alive as ho Is
today in the habitation of the blent.
li^May I close this tribute with an
expression of prayerful and profound
sympathy for his heart stricken companion,
who must gather up the broken
threads of life and face the future.
I must also ask God's guidance
and blessing upon the daughter and
Ave sops who already have laid hold
of life's task. May they walk in the
way a Godly father hath taught them
by precept and example.

Slain By Soldier
Fayetteville, N. C., April 24.?OrovPritchette,
44-year-old private, was
held In jail tonight after hacking Miss
Ruth Fuquay, 18, of Coats, to death
with nn axe and finally wounding his
wifo with the same weapon.
Pritchette later attempted to slash
himself to death with a razor blade
but his wounds were not serious and
after they were dressed at the Fort
Hragg hospital he was removed to
the county Jail here.
Sheriff M. H. McGerchy said he
found a small piece of brown bloodstained
paper at the Pritchette home
near the Fort Bragg army reservation
on which Pritchette . told of attacking
the women because "my wife i
had not been treating me right."
The note, the sheriff said, was ad-i
dressed to his father and instructed )
him to "collect my money from the i
government."
Miss Fuquay was dead when the
officers arrived on the scene. Mrs.
Pritchette, however, lived several
hours, dying in a hospital.
Thomas F. McMahon, president of
the United Textile Workers of America,
told the convention of the American
Federation of Hosiery Workers,
at Philadelphia, that it would be "political
suicide" for any candidate in
the south to oppose the Ellenbogen
textile bill. ? The
161st anniversary of the famous
ride of Paul Revere was celebrated
at Boston on Monday, the occasion
being the anniversary of the battles
of Lexington and Concord.

in the Gaston county superior
court on charges of reckless driving
und driving a car while drunk.
The house has unanimously passed
a bill for the increase of the army air
corps force from 1,000 to 4,000 planes
within the next five years. The bill
is now up to the senate.
