THE OIL MILL.
The suggestion has been made
to us that the scheme to organize
a cotton seed oil mill be commenced
on the building and loan plan, and
we think the suggestion a good one.
The plan would be something like
this: Organize a company with a
capital stock of, say $50,000. The
shares will be worth $100 each;
the stockholders to pay $1.00 per
month per share. At the end of
twelve months this would give
$6,000 to commence work on, which
- would be amply sufficient to buy a
suitable site and erect all uecessary
buildings. The machinery could
then be easily purchased on credit,
or sufficient money to buy machinery
could be borrowed at a low rate
of interest. The greater the profits
of the mill, the sooner the stock
would reach its par value, aud this
plan would enable every clerk and
salaried man in town to take some
stock. We think favorably of the
plan, and commend it to those interested
in the enterprise. Let's get
to work on some basis, for an oil
mill here is a necessity, and it would
bsa paying investment. We believe
the mills in South Carolina pay an
average dividend of 33 per cent, and
the same rate of profit could be
made here with a well equipped and
well managed mill.

What "the governor of

It would no doubt be a money
saving idea for the county commissioners
to establish a poor farm, and
it would also insure better care for
the paupers. Those who are able to
do light work could then do something
to help pay for their keep.
The present plan seems to us to be
very unsatisfactory, and is one
.followed by very few counties, most
of them having a poor house and
farm.

The people of Bamberg owe it to
themselves and the town to vote a
tax sufficient to run our graded
school ten months in the year and
to erect a school building that will
be an ornament to the town. The :
present tax and bnilding are totally
inadequate for the needs of the
school. The trustees have done the ,
best they could with the funds in i
hand, and the one thing needful
now for a first class graded school
system is money. Au election will

Pen Sketch of Man.
As a sample of what an old maid
can do with a pen we submit the
following: "Man is a two-legged
animal that chews tobacco and walks
on the forked end. Most men are
bom, we never heard of but one
that wasn't, and he was made of
mud, just for a sample. Man's life
is full of disappointment, growls (
and corncob pipes. He goes forth
like a lion iu the morning and leaves
the wood for his wife to chop, and
in the evening he sneaketh home ;
with his pants ripped, and raises
cane about hard times. He has la
grippe on road working days, and
walks twenty miles to a circus. ,
He will chase a jack rabbit four
miles through the snow, and then '
borrow a horse to ride half a mile
to the post office."

It is reported that the Walhalla,
S. C? Cotton Mill with a capital
stock of $100,000, has made already
this year $16,000 and has about
$10,000 working capital.
A new mill is reported from
Raleigh, N. C. It will be built on
the Neuse River, S miles frjni
Raleigh. It will contain 10,(00
spindles and looms to man in act are
brown sheeting. Ed. Lee and C. G.
Latta are the parties interested.
Concord, X. C., is to have another
cotton mill, which will he located
northwest of the town just above
the Buffalo Thread Mills on the

Concord, is the principal promoter
of the new enterprise. The capital
stock will be $100,000.
D. J. Carpenter, proprietor of
the Xewtou, X. C., Hosiery Mills,
which is one of the best managed little
mill in the state, has all the orders
he can fill for two months ahead.
The present capacity is 150 dozen
per day, but will have soon to be increased,
as he makes a very superior
grade, and once a customer, a customer

Every cotton mill in Greenville,
S. C., seems to be on the boom.
Within the last few weeks new machinery
has been placed in all the
mills, and more is coming. The
cotton mill industry is one of gen
erai interest to every umzeu.
Through the abundance of money
distributed by the cotton mill people
every business house is practically
sustained. Stop the mills and
you place a "for rent" sign on
many doors, and drive business
away from the city; "you decrease
your population and almost make
beggars of good, substantial men.

A Heart Rending Accident.
The family of Mr. S. P. Wells, oi
Wells, in the lower portion of the
county was suddenly plunged last
week in the depth of a great sorrow,
caused by the accidental death of
their youngest son and child, Bertie,
a bright handsome lad of thirteen
years. The lad in company with an
older brother and others went on a
hunt on Tuesday night of last week.
After being out sometime the dogs
"treed" a coon or 'possum, and prep
arations were being made by the party
to secure the game. Young
Wells was standing on a log with a
gun in his hand, Some how or
other he slipped off the log and the
gun was discharged, the load of shot
taking effect in the unfortunate
young man's face. He was immediately
taken home by his companions
where he lingered until Wednesday
afternoon when his young
spirit at half-past six took its flight
and row awaits the coming of loved
ones on the other side. This is
truly a heart rending accident, and
casts a shadow over the entire community
in which the young man
lived and was greatly loved.?

Remedy for Melon Wilt.
Last week we published an article
in reference to this matter, and feel
I ing its importance to our man}
melon growers we publish the following
article, written by Mr. X. L
Willett:
To those not conversant with
watermelon growing, I will say thai
land cannot be planted with safeh
in watermelons for more than om
year for fear of the melon vine wilt
When this attacks a vine the who!
vine dies. The ground, once innocu
luted with the wilt fungas, is unfi
again for growing melons. Instance
nfp known wlif>rp melon wilt land
la}r idle for seven years and unti
pine sapplings as big as one's thigl
had grown up, and yet when thes
trees had been cut down and th
land planted once again in melons
the vines 011 the land were killed b;
wilt.
The United States goverment ha
sent its various agents out to stud;
the wilt problem; but the meloi
growers have not it seems beei
greatly helped thereby.
One of the finest melon areas ii
the South lies along the Port Roya
railroad below Augusta. But s<
much of this land has been used tt]
and is now subject to wilt, that it i
computed that in two years more
all of the new lands on the road am
contiguous to the road will have beei
exhausted for melon culture. Land
on the South Carolina and Georgia
and Charlotte, Columbia am
Augusta railroad are in as bad or ;
worse condition than those 011 thi
Port Royal road. Indeed most 0
the large buyers and growers 01
these roads migrated some two yeari
ago to jpionua anu. cHium vxcuigia
The culture of melons is mucl
now like that of turpentine tree cut
tins:. The melon man rents for i
year or two lands in Florida, ant
also in South Georgia. When thi;
time is up he rents other lauds. Hi
thus escapes the wilt.
Possibly the most successfu
melon grower today on the line o
the Port Royal Road is Mr. Pi nek
ney Brown, at Averill, S. C. Mr
Brown has got fairly rich in thi
business. His melons in New York
carefully sorted and with his bran<
on the car, will sell at a good figur
when other cars will not. Now Mr
Brown, being an intelligent gentle
man and a student, became alarinei
the past year for his future. In tw
more years he saw that his avocatioi
at his home place would certain!
be gone, if something were not done
p He studied fungi in all their phases
1 The result of his study was a scien
tific formula as a preventive fo
wilt.
Mr. Brown experimented las
season with this formula on te
! acres. It proved, I might say,
' perfect success; as only two hills i
; ten acres had the wilt. Mr. Browi
is almost besides himself with jo
1 over his probable . discovery. I
means not only much to himseli
but much to all growers along th
' Port Royal road and to growers i
other districts, and also to the rail
1 roads contiguous to said lands.
There is reason, too, to fear tha
the melon wilt is extending to othe
plants. A remedy for one mean
' perhaps a remedy for al1. Since Mr
Brown's remedy is the result o
scientific research, and since land
frequently wholly fail the secorn
year through wilt, and since onl;
two hills were attacked in ten acres
I do not question that it is probabb
that this gentleman has found, ir
truth, a remedy.
The cost per acre of remedy, Mr
Brown says, is from $1.00 to $1.2'
an acre. Under the application o:
the remedy, too, Mr. Brown's vinei
grew larger and were greener anc
the fruitage lasted longer, thai
where the application was not made
It has therefore a genuine value out
side of its being an antidote agaius
wilt.
Mr. Brown has not made publit
his formula?he tells me. All tha
he says as yet, is that he immerse!
his melon seed in the preparation
and also puts on his checks anoihe)
preparation that can be bought ii
any country store, and the total cos
is as above. Mr. Brown thinki
that he should derive some persona
benefit from his discovery, and i
con not blame him at all.
Mr. Brown is not alone in hii
testimony. The shipping house it
New York to whom he ships, main
railroad me.., and a large number oi
melon growers, came to see his field
It created a sensation along the whoh
line of railroad. Of course, this it
only one year's expeiiment. MiBrown
would not guarantee that h<
has an absolute lemedy. But no'
only himself, but many other:
interested in melons, do firmly believe
that his remedy is a correct and j
i sufficient one.
If so, 110 discovery made in tin
past year will mean more to tlx
I melon shipping South, and will b(
of greater value than will MiBrown's.
His Life Was Saved.

of Hannibal, Mo., lately had a wonderful
deliverance from a frightful
death. In telling of it he savs: "1

Probably you use it? S
Nearly everyone does, and If so yoif^- ?'
know all about how far superior it is tt p
either baking soda or baking powder* *
Leaven
is the latest advance in baking prepara
tions, and it you aon t use it you saouia.
It Is Better Than Soda
because it will make biscuit just right
every time. No more yellow spots or ^ soda
taste.
It Is Better Than Baking Powder
because it is half as strong again and
- one heaping teaspoonfu! will do the
work of two rounded teaspoonfuls a*
the best baking powder ever made.
It Don't Spoil
but is so prepared that with ordinary
care it will retain its full strength fot
years. We do not have to pack it in
tin cans like baking powder, and thi*
saving enables us to give you bettef *
value for your money than you ev?f
had before.* jgmB
