about flvii weeks when the end came.
Everything was done that willing

He was a loving nusband and a
devoted father, and lias ever mnde
his life one of pence and nappiness,
and his home a comfort for .ill * ho
entered It. °
Mr. Yon leaves a surviving wif»
three children, a mother, and a host
of relatives and frienda to iaojrn
their loos.
O. then what raptured greetings.
Oa Canaan's happy shore?
What knitting severed friendship up.
Where partings are no more.
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle.
That brimmed with tears of late.
Orphans no longer fatherless.
Nor widows desolate.
A friend.

NEED OK COLLETON FARMERS
Ko: :nei Collet coin n Urges eur Farm
ers to Employ Export Farmer.
Clemson College,'Jan. 13—Special;
What Is Colleton going to dq about
this new movement being taken up
by other counties? No doubt your
readers have seen through the col
umns of tho newspapers that Green
ville has employed a man who la well
grounded in agriculture, and Spar
tanburg is going to employ one, to
help the farmers of these counties
solve the many and difficult prob
lems confronting them. In the hus
tle of every day life today, whbro
every autn la for himaelf, the farm?
or doea not have much time to de
vote to experiments on his farm. But
with these men It la different? they
are to give all of their time to this
rad of work. •
The duties of these men are to vis
it the farmers of these counties and
show them how to use up-to-date
methods on their plantations. These
men work along the same lines as
does the county farm demonstrator,
except these agricultural agents give
all of their time to this work, then,
totnhey are graduates of agricultural
colleges and have had some exper-
ieme along experimental lines of
work. They are to try and help the
farmers outline experiments, and
show him how the science of agri
culture works out in practise.
For five-days these agricultural
agents travel over the county from
farm to farm, trying to show the
farmers how to prepare- his soil for
planting, how to do some mixing of
fertilisers, what kind of fertiliser to
use, and how to cultivate and use
cover crops or answer any other
questions that may come up.
Last year Colle.ou made some
iplcndid yields tu toiton and corn,
but can she not do better?
There are yet my fellow citisens, un
told wealth for the farmers of Colle
ton lying dormant in the soil. Just
because we are practicing the same
methods of farming p.actlsed by our
fatbars. Now is the opportune time.
I^t’s'be up with this forward move
ment and he doing. But how are
?ho people to hear lest there be a
nreacher? The time is at hand now
\ hen we need more than one preach
er. One demonstrate; cannot reach
very farmer, neither can two. but in
•nlon there is strength, two can do
more than one.
Now comes a question. Hou is
this man going do be paid» I can
r M you of Spartanburg and Oreon-
■ ille s plan. The Chamber of Com
merce got busy and by popular sub
scription raised most of the money.
Now seems like this would be a nice
place and time /or the farmers un
ion of Ccnleton to gel nupy.
.Now My. Editor,, I would like to
hear some discussion on this sub
ject. it should reach tne heart of ev
ery farmer in Colleton.
F. W. Risher.
His Stomach Trouble* Over.
Mr. Dyspeptic, would you not like

is to assure you that it Is not alto
gether impossible. If others have

a great improvement would be made in the condition of horses and
other animals if juft the proper remedy were used when they became
ill or injured. If your horse could talk he would ask you not to use
any external remedy containing alcohol because it filings and tortures
his flesh terribly. ‘ Some liniments have alcohol and other fiery
ingredients which only inflame the skin and tissue without fitrilting
down to where the pain lies. Beware of such liniments. The great
humane, quick-adtion remedy is MEXICAN MUSTANG LINIMENT.
Made of oils, without a drop of alcohol or other torturing element, it
soaks straight to the hone and muscle. It soothes the wounded parts
and is comforting while the healing work is progressing. Mexican
Mustang Liniment is what you want because it

Liniment has been doing its wonderful healing work for 65 years.
The amount of money it has saved livestock owners is incalculable.
One man writes that he was about to kill his valuable hor^e because
