-u* ‘•V DAIRY BUSINESS IS » GIVEN GREAT BOOST REV. F. W. CARNETT AND WIFE KILLED Cow Btlotifcinji to R. M. Crooby, of Colleton County, Give* Birth to Three Calves. Walterboro.—That the cows in this iodine ridden section have become im bued with the desire to increase rapid ly the herds of dairy cows in Colle ton County, is attested by the fact that Thursday nitfht a cow belong-ing to R. M. Crosby, of Walterboro, route 5, gave birth to triplets. The only rjiscording note in this phenomenal birth rate is the fact that all three of the calves are of the masculine gen der. They are reported to have a full lease of life, are lively and living the life of all normal calves. Doubtless these calVes and their mother will be the center of attraction at the fair next fall. Legal Advertisements IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES, Rev. Frank W. Camett, 'several years ago pastor of the Williston Bap tist church, and his wife were killed recently in Oklahoma as the result of an automobile accident. The accident occurred the first part of January, but the news only reached this section a few days ago, when Mrs. Camett’s father, the Rev. D. P. Montgomery, wrote friends in Williston telling of the sad occurrence. No details of the accident were given, other than the fact that Mr. and Mrs. Garnett’s car was wrecked while traveling from Tulsa to Siloam, Okla. Mr. Garnett was killed instantly, while Mrs. Gar net died two or three days later. As no hope was entertained for her re covery, the body was held uriil after his wife died, and the two were in terred together. Two sons survive them. FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF SOUTH CAROLINA.

POWER COMPANY LOOKING AHEAD (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) of these several companies, was char tered by the secretary of state under date of October 31, 1928. The revamping and simplifying of the financial structure of the enlarged company, under the management, and with the assistance of the Southeast ern Power company, proceeded with the result that there are now provided ample means and plans of the con stantly increasing new capital require ments where justified with which to provide facilities to adequately sup ply the power needs of a rapidly de veloping territory. , The connecting up, coordinating, standardizing and unifying the exist ing facilities and operations of the several companies in the merger were accomplished, thereby rendering a more convenient^ adequate and econo mic service, at the same time con serving the capital already invested in facilities. Fiacilities were provided for extend ing electric light and power to com munities not heretofore served, and also for the more intensive develop ment of the territory already supplied. Stronger Financially. The financial structure of the new company, formed through the merger of the several companies, has been greatly simplified and burdensome and cumbersome restrictions in the long term leases and securities of the sev eral companies have been eliminated. Before the consolidation, due to such restrictions^ it was exceedingly difficult for some of the companies to obtain adequate sums of money re quired for extensions. The removal of these restrictions and the more di versified business of the enlarged com pany enables it to secure its capital requirements on a reasonable and com petitive basis with other power pro ducing utilities. This is advantageous, not only to the customers of the com pany, but to the stockholders in en hanced values. Business and Territory. The territory served by the company embraces about 9,000 square miles in thirteen counties in South Carolina, beginning with McCormick County in the southwest, and extending from this point to the coast; between the Santee arid Savannah rivers, including some of the best agricultural sections in the Edisto, Charleston and Beau- Tort areas, and the great cotton manu facturing sections known as the Horpe Creek Valley in Aiken County, as well as the large fertilizer, asbestos, oil refinehes ard other industrial plants in the Charleston area. The company supplies power direct ly or indirectly to more than 60 com munities in this section of the State, including Charleston, Aiken, Beaufort, Denmark, Walterboro and Granite- ville, all of which are growing and offer exceptional advantages for in dustrial expansion. The electric load, consisting of the domestic, commercial and industrial needs of the territory, having an es timated population of 450,000 is wide ly diversified. ' Sale of Stock. Customers ownership: During the year the company continued its policy of offering its $6 preferred stock within the tei;iitoVy served. This stock is offered to citizens of South Caro lina who are seeking a dividend pay ing investment. Money invested in this stock remains in and aids in the development of the State. Promotion of/new industries: The company continued ita policy of co operating with the Chamber of Com merce and other agencies in the ter ritory in advertising the opportunities offered to manufacturers. Representa tives of the company spent consider able time in the east and other sec tions in an endeavor to interest manu facturers in the many advantages of fered in the company’s territory. We believe a continuation of this work will ultimately result beneficially, both to the company and to the sec tion of South Carolina served by it.

The beat known “anti knock” fuel is ESSO, the Giant Power Fuel. It is ac knowledged by engineers to be in a class by itself—a gen- M4 uine “anti-knock” fuel, spe cially made for uae in high compression motors, and in motors that are carbonized from long usage.
