Why Salves Caul Cure Eczema Since the old-fashioned tlioory of cur ing eczema through the blood has boon given tip by scientists, manv different salves have boon tried for skin diseases, But it has been found that Umso salves only clog the pores and cannot ponetrate to the Inner s'.in below the epidermis where the eczema germs are lodged.

Terry's Store Laurens, South Carolina DIVERSIFIED FARMING GIVEN IMPETUS Sumler Hunks nnd Merchants Ottered Prizes for Progressive Farming with (?ratifying Results. Sumter, Jan. 26.?In the beginning of 1912 the City National bank, to stimulate diversified l< rming offered prizes of $200 to be -ontested for dur ing the year. The rules for the con. tests were made by officials of the Farmers' union and the experts of the various agricultural departments, and the contests were conducted under the ausprices of the same. The con testants met yesterd&y and Inhde their reports and the prizes were de clared and awarded. A condition of the contest was that accounts should be kept of the work, and that reports Should be rendered. Fight hundred and thirty-eight and one-half bushels of sweet potatoes was grown on one acre of land by S. .1. White, R. F. D. No. 1, Sumter. The City National bang had offered $100 in prizes. $100 to be given to the farmer in Sumter county who would make the greatest average yield on each, an acre of cotton, an acre of corn, an acre of pens, and an acre of sweet potatoes, and $100 to the framer who would make the most net profit on these four acres. S. J. White won the prize for the greatest net profit. He made 90 8-10 buchels of corn, 2,Olli pounds of seed cotton, ten and a half bushels of peas and 4,932 pounds of cured peavine hay, deducting the cost of fertilizers use.Mr. Whits made $.".20.S7 on the four acres. The most startling fig ures were the enormous profit made on one acre of sweet potatoes. Esti mating the value of the potatoes at the very low price of 46 cents per bushel, he made more than $300 prof it on his acre of sweet potatoes alone. Several of the potatoes weighed u round eight pounds each and one weighed 8 1-2 pounds. T. S. DuBose of Oswego won the prize of $100 for the largest yield, making 2,330 pounds of seed cotton, 129 1-8 bushels of corn, and 409 1.2 bushels of sweet potatoes. M. II. Heck of Sumter made 416 bushels of sweet potatoes and the ma jority in the contest made over 300 bushels of sweet potatoes per acre. J. M. Bradham of Sumter made 106 1-2 bushels of corn, 2,409 pounds of seed cotton. J. W. Odom of Sumter made 6,350 pounds of cured peavine hay on one 1 acre. All of the foregoing records were certified to by two disinterested witnesses with affidavits attached. The City National bank is so well pleasod With the past years coin est that it has offered $300 in prizes for 1913?ISO for the greatest yield of oats and vetch hay on one acre, $."?0 for the greatest yield of sweet pota toes, $7;, for the greatest yield of corn. $LT> for the second best, $7f> for the greatest yield Of cotton, and $2f> for the second best. The cotton is to bo planted after oats and peas, the corn to be planted after cotton, and the potatoes, oats and vetch to be planted without restrictions. A cover crop is to be planted on the acre of cotton in the fall No one can enter the contests without planting at least tbreee of the above crops. Beside this contest which is renew ed for this year, the Bank of Sum ter has Inagu rated another contest for planters, this, too, under the au sprices of the experimental depart ment of Clemson college nnd the de partment of agriculture. This bank has made Its offer for three years, giving $200 for each of the three years. The prime feature of the offer of the Bank of Sumter Is to incourage rotation of crops and the rules that will be fomulated by the experts who will prepare the technical part of the contest will be formed with this in view, and the land that is planted one kind of crop in 1913 will have t? bear another in 1914, and still a third In 191 i5.

There are one church and one school. The church has a membership of 86; the school has an enrollment of about 90. There arc two cotton gins, and two saw.mllls. There Is, also, one grist mill.
