Successful business men who are in shape to handle this proposition have the matter under consideration. We are urging this in order that the farmers may be able to secure lime in small quantities at time convenient to them, which is not possible under present arrangements. The soils of the country ,ure in dire need of lime if a successful diversification of crops is to be carried on. C. L.

I am working in close co-opeivation with 1-5. Barnwell, the negro agent. We have sufficient acreage to insure carlot shipments. If the project is successful this year we will go into it on a very large scale next year. The potatoes will be shipped through the South Carolina Sweet Potato Growers' Association. .J. D.

Approximately 1,500 bushels have been sold to over 100 farmers at a saying of 60 Tents per bushel or a total saving of almost $J)00. This will practically save the county appropriation for my work, which is only $1,000. We wi-11 get planted an enormous acreage of velvet beans this year, as my work is being followed by others.

Page ON LACK OF EVIDENCE Absence of Motive Seems to J Have Favored Mark Strick- | ltiiici ana utncrs in Trial J. J. Sarvis was found guilty of disposing ot property under lien and was sentenced to s25 line or thirty days on the public works. The Stnte vs. Mark Strickland, J. S. Strickland and Walter Shelley, in which the defendants were charged with assault and battery, with intent to kill, was tried on Wednesday evening of court week. C. F. Page, the prosecutor, testified that he was called out and shot by some men at the gate; that he was hit and .-laid in bed for a time from the effects of the wounds. On cross-examination he said that on the Sunday night before he bad shot at someone in the road at his place. W. J. A .vers heard the shot at Page's place and went there. The doctor examined Page. Witness followed the tracks of a vehicle and described where the trail led. There was no other trail made there after the rain. Witness saw a part of a horse collar, along the route. W. R. Gainis went over to Page's house that night after the shooting. He helped to track a buggy to the crossroads and there the buggy had turned. Down there some distance they found the collar. Witness followed the trail of the buggy to where the buggy was driven up under a shelter. This was at George Shelley's. The gear was there, except the collar. Next morning went back with rural police and found Mark Strickland gearing up the mule. The mule had sore shoulders and showed signs of having been driven. Talked with Strickland and lie said he had been coon hunting the night before. The buggy was the same buggy he had seen the night before. O. I. Blanton testified to about the ~ wil nn. u'Iim (not ifinil ."><1111*: an uiic ? u in. ivunwi before him on the stand. He was with them when they followed the buggy tracks. J. K. Floyd went down to C. F. Page's that night and followed the tracks of a buggy down to Steplin's crossroads; traced the tracks to George Shelley's and found the buggy under a shed. lie found a number <<! gun shells near the edge of the road near an oak tree there. Will O&Ctsey was at Shelley's, fixing a truck arid Mark Strickland got some red No. 8 shells f'*om witness the evening before the shooting. On cross-examination he said that in his opinion 'lie empty shells, one of which he saw, had not been fired from Strickland's gun, going by the sign of the plunger on the he; id of the shell. Smith Worley lived near Mr. Page's. He was called by Hud Shelley on the telephone the night of the shooting. This closed the testimony for the J state and the court directed a verdict or the defendants, on the ground that the proof was insufficient. LOOKOUT ASKED FOR NEW WEEVIL A weevil has been found in Stone county, Miss., in considerable numbers, which is injurious to potato, tomato, and turnips.

If you take calomel today you'll bo cick and nauseated tomorrow; besides, it may salivate you, while if you take Dodson's Liver Tone you \?ill wake up feeling great. No salts necessary.
