MEETING HELD OCT. 5 TO
DISCUSS ONION CULTURE
Farmers Getting Ready to Plant Va-
rious Kinds of Track.
^ ■ V
Willistcn, October ^ 11.—(Special.)
—A meeting of farmers was held in
Kennedy’s Hall at Williston on Wed
nesday, October 5th, for the purpose
of considering onions as a market
crop for the coming season. Ad
dresses were made by Messrs." Aud-
ley Hill, E. F. Jackson and J. C. Mc-
Auliffe, of Augusta. Much interest
was manifested and thei*e will likely
be a considerable acreage of this
crop. It was stated by Mr, Hill that
off of an acre of. onions grown on
his farm he realized $330.00 last
year. Mr. Hill is a wholesale grocer
of Augusta who handles a quantity
of vegetables. The fact was also
stressed that, owing to dry weather,
the onion Wop of the United States
has been curtailed, making a scarcity
of this commodity, and consequently
prices are high and the probability
is that this condition will continue
until onions now planted come on the
market> . According to best advices,
this crr/p should be planted at once.
It was stated at the meeting that a
concern in Chicago would contract
for onions, provided * sufficient acre
age would be planted tb warrant
sending a man down on the field.
However, it would be too late to now
consider contracts for this year, as
it is time to get seed in' the ground.
Bulletins have been put out by Alex
ander Seed Company of Augusta and
Hastings Seed Company of Atlanta,
both of which give full information
on onion culture, and if either of
these firths 1* written io they will
send their bulletin, u’hich covers the
ground fully on this crop. Other
seedsmen throughout the South" no
doubt will be glad to supply useful
information a^ong this rubjecV as
well as Clemson College and the
county agents.
Among the out of town visitors at
tending the meeting were Col. Harry
D. Calhoun and Mr. Charlie Brown,
of Barnwell, both of whom manifest
ed considerable interest. Col. Cal
houn presided at the meeting. It
was stated that in California, clear
across the continent, ' that truck
fanners, with no better soil and cli
mate than ours, are getting very
large returns from vegetables and
truck. One case was cited of eleven
acre* having yielded $44,000.00, the
profit for one season being $8,000.
The speaker making this statement
fMr. McAuliffc) stressed the point
that our farmers are playing a los
ing game planting cotton an their
main money crop when there are so
many other crops to be grown with
great possibilities.
In addition to onions, the farmers
of this section are now getting to
gether and getting prices on large
quantities of spinach seed ami it i*
the expectation to havn enough of
this crop early next Spring to load
a car a day.

Ulmers, Oct. 1.—This entire com
munity was shocked on last Mon
day morning to learn of the death
of Mrs. Essie Weekle’J, wife of John
F. Weekley. The suddenness of her
death greatly added to the sadness
of the parsing of this belovedwo-
man. Immediately prior to her
death, Mrs. Weekley wa* apparently
enjoying the best of health. She re
tired on Sunday night in her usual
jovial spirits and was discoverd dead
the following morning about 6 o’
clock when she was called by her
husband.
Mrs. Weekley was a consistent
Christian and a regular attendant
of the services of the Mizpah Metho
dist church of which she was a mem
ber. Only the afteraoon before her
death, she with other members of
the family attended service* at h«>r
search. She wa* the daughter of«
Jeff 4. Craddock and Mary Ann My-
rick Craddock, her family being
widely connected and well known in
Allendale and Bamberg counties and
throughout the lower section of
South Carolina. She wa> in her 54*h
year. Her marriage to Mr. Weekley
took place in January, 1888, conse
quently they had lived together a
most happy married life of over
yeafw. Mts. Weekley wan in the
truest sense a oevoted wife and
mother. The funeral sendee* were
conducted by her pastor, the Rev.
Mr. Peeler, of Olar, on Tuesc*.
ternoon. at the Great Saltkehatchie
Baptist church in Ulmers, after
which the remains wen- laid 10 rest
in the Gt. Salkehatchie cemetery
near Ulmers. A very large number
of kindred, neighbors and friends
gathered at the church and ceme
tery in token of their esteem ami af
fection. The entire community will
jlceply mourn with the surviving
members of her fam:*y: Her husband,

the announcement that men of the
Old Hickory Association, veterans
of the Thirtieth Division, which
three years ago was pounding away
at the German strongholds in France,
‘will again march in review before
General Pd-shii^? at\ third annual
reunion, to be held in Nashville,
Tenn., on November 4 and 5. In
fact, it is probably, that Marshall
Fouch, Generallissimo of all the
Allied armies, who ha* been invited-
ed tj accompany General Pershing
to Nashville, will also be in the re
viewing stand.
The parade of the veterans, how
ever, will form but a part of the
full reunion program. Men who
billeted in French villages or battle
field shelters three yars ago will
find the homes of Nashville opened
to them. Plans have been made to
house and care for not less than ten
thousand veterans and more if they
should come.
Convention sessions will be held in
the Auditorium, with a capacity of
seven thousand. Dances and other
social features enough to give every
man who comes an opportunity to
enjoy himself are being arranged
for by the hosts of the occasion, the
citizens of Nashville.
Separate headquarters for each of
the regiments of the Division will he
established in Nashville, and in the
billeting arrangements it ia planned,
as far as possible, to put men out of
the same outfit* in the same section
pf the city.
There will be all sort* of op
portunities for the eld timer* to
get together and “fight the war”
which started on the* Mexican border
for some, at camp Sevier for others,
and ran all the way «cioms the sea*,
over the Hindenhurg Line, through
the Argonne, into Belgium and
Luxemburg and home again.
In the course of its training and
traveling and fighting no Division in
the American Army made a more
creditabk* shewing than ^iid the
Carolina and Tennessee t~oopv The
achievement of the division in flrat
smashing the great Hindenhurg de
fense sy*t‘*m at Bellieourt, across the
St. Quentin Canal Tunnel, is one of
the outstanding achicveement* of the
wui, while the artillery brigade,
operating separately -»n the St.
Mihiel, Argonne and Woevre sectors,
took rank as one of the most ef
fective artillery outfits of the army.
Reduced Railroad Rate*
Railroad* have granted a reduc'd
rate of one and one half fare* for
the lound trip to mem!>er* of the
Division s Association. Member*

Nashville, (laying the full fare, and
but beat results will be had usually

son College N ’ horticulturists. The
seedlings however, must become
well established before very cold

cember and January. If the tops are

Onion rows are laid off 12 to 15
inches apart and the seed planted
in the drill, with an ormaary seed
planter. From 4 to 5 pounds of

spring when the oniofis are large
