In another column ofthis weeks issue
i* a news item in regard to the probable
establishment of an ice and cold-stor
age paint in Barnwell. The promoters
of the enterprise recognize the advant
ages that the town has in a geographi
cal way and they are tryingjto find out
ff the business will be a paying one.
Letters were sent to-several gentlemen
in town and have no doubt been an
swered by this time.
The people of Barnwell, however, are
prone to show but very little interest
Ih projects of this kind, snd do not
give outsiders the needed encourage
ment. What is needed is a get-to
gether apirit ajn°ng the business men.
so that when an opportunity of this
kind comes along they will be pre
pared to do what is necessary to land
it. The town already has enough
mercantile establishments. Manufac
turing enterprises, large and small, are
what are needed
We hope that the answers to the
ters sent out by the ice syndicate
meet its approval snd that a plant
be establiahed here.

Only laat season Messrs W M
Hughes and Jno. H Cope gathered two
bales per acre from many acres of
their best lands, snd Mr. Cope gath-
e*ed something like ninety bushels of
com per acre from 25 or 30 seres.
He gathered seventy or more bushels
of oats per acre, and then raised Span
ish pindars on some land that yielded
50 to 80 bushels per acre. He will in
stall a pindar picking machine this fall.
He plants 30 to 40 acres of pindars an
nually, and raiaes from one to two hun
dred head of hogs on his place.-Orange-
berg Times and Democrat.
Fattening hogs on pindars has been
tried very successfully by at least one
farmer In this county. This gentleman
promised to write us sit article or two
on this subject snd we intend to jog
his memory. He proved conclusively
that hogs can be fattened profitably on
this product,—in fact, they were so fat
that he filled every available vessel on
his place with the lard. The meat had
a most delicious flavor.
We promise our readers to try and
get him to fulfill his promise.
The Olympic, a giant ship of the
White Star Line, departed from South
hampton last Wednesday. It is said to
be “unsinkable.” The next day the
Hamburg-American Liner Vaterland
was launched. It is said to be the larg
est passenger vessel in the world, and
its builders declare it is proof against
destruction by icebergs.. The lesson
taught by the loss of the Titanic last
year was a terrible one and it is hoped
that the builders and owners have pro
fited by it and provided the new ships
with an adequate number of life boats.
The most carefully laid plans of men
will miscarry and no one wants to see
a repetition of the Titanic disaster.

My dear Editor—
Your editorial on the Gov
ernor was well taken, covers the
ground well and your complimentary
remarks as to the board. 1 thank you
to much. Words cannot express my
appreciation as to myself. 1 feel so
unworthy of the compliment. I was
not an aspirant to a place on the Board,
but I was urged by my friends to ac
cept and I would have given it biy un
divided attentoin, but 1 trust that it has
all happened for the best interests of
our grand old courity, and 1 am ready
to shake the hands of the incoming
Board and wish them well.
Thanking you again for past favors
and for the^stand that you are taking
against the evils of our country, I re
main,
Yours very truly and sincerely,
J. A. Meyer.

Green OeU For Pig*.
“Will green ost pasture kill pig^' , "|
This question has twen asked the wr iter
hundreds of time There is a general ,
belief or a tradition that green oats or
pasture* will kill young pigs and are
not good for brood sows. When so
many people believe a thing like this, ^
it would »eem that there must t>e some j
foundation for it, but for thirty years 1
ha ve aeen kogs grazed h> the hundreds
on green oats and rye without injury, ,
in fact, to their apparent delight and
the profit of their owners, and, there
fore, I answer that green oats will not
kill pig* But there is judgment re
quired in starting the pigs on the gfeen
oats if they have not beert accustoned
to green feed. When the pig* begin
to die from any cause, if they »rr graz
ing green oata, it is natural for the
owner to *u*pect the green feed,
especially if he has not been in the
hsbit of using oats for grszing snd does
not see sny other cause or reason for
the trouble, but we f^el certain there
is generally, if not always, something
else that must be charged with the re
sponsibility of the pigs' death —The
Progressive Farmer.

Automobilists, Your Attention
We have on hand a supply of the reliable Diamond Edge
Dry Batteries. They test higher than any other battery on the
market at the same price. Ask those who use them. Their ap
proval is better than anything we might say.
We also handle the famous "Polarine” Oils and Greases.
Can you beat “Polarine” at 50 cents a gallon? Get our prices on
this class of goods before buying your next supply.
Number your car with our new automobile letters and
figures. We have just received a supply.
Bicycles and sundries of all kinds.
Wire Screens and Fences
After you have brightened up your home you will naturally
V
want to keep it looking fresh, so we advise your using screen
doors and window's. Aside from that, there is a question of
health that you should consider. We handle the best screens
made'and our prices are no highter than you would pay for-4n-
ferior articles.
It is being constantly demonstrated that a farm that is prop
erly fenced is more profitable than an unfenced place. Where
fenced, fields can be used for pasturing hogs, etc. after the crop
has been gathered, as there is nearly always good stock feed left
on the land. The best fence to use is the “Pittsburg Perfect.”
The wires are welded together, making the strongest, most
durable fence on the market. Even- rod is guaranteed. Prices
right. This fence is made for town lots as well as country fields.
See what we offer before you buy.
