The speed of the coyote is great md has often been the subject of omment, but I think it has been )verrated, says Ernest Thompson ^eton in Success. After collecting lata of various kinds, such as aeual known records of dogs and lorses, also the comparative records )f dogs and hares, of hor.-es and !oxes and wolves and hounds and mtomobiles, I have attempted a cale of comparative speeds: Blooded race horse covers a mile in about i m. iu a. Prong horned antelope 1 m. CO s First class greyhound ? m. 0 ? Jack rabbit 2 m. 10 s Common fox 2 m. 20 s Northern coyote 2 m. 30 3 Foxhound 2 m. 40 & American gray wolf 3 m. 0 Many hunters would set the kil fox or swift above the greyhound especially for a short race, but ] have had no personal experience with the species in a chase. Th< little prairie cottontail can, I be lieve, get away from the swift in i hundred yard dash. They canno keep it up for long, but their ini tial velocity is incredible and baf fles the eye. Not a leg, not a rab bit is to be seen?nothing but i white streak acroes the prairie, til it promptly disappears in some bui row. What actually counts in the rac is, as usua^ the trifle more spee that each animal can command. For cxampjp, the gray wolf make 050 yards to the minute and th coyote about 700. But thoee flft yards make all the diHerence ? twcen living and dying. That lift yards' margin is probably the fool hold on which the whole coyote rae has been built tip. It is a well known principle the the special development of an an mal is its most variable pari Thi the peculiar bell in the throat of raooee varies enormously, the bi of the long billed curlew, the nec feather of the ruff, the spots of tt ocelot, the white bands of the stun.' the horns of the elk, are so varie that rarely two are found just ahk Speed is one of the peculiarities < the coyote, aa it is of the greyboua and we muet therefore, look f< peat variation* of rate. I have ? lected an average for my caicul tione, but there kit occasional ind viduala, coyote* of rare gifts, who speed and endurance would p them very near the top of our seal Al m IvMhig Party.

Georgetown,November 29:? The home of Mrs William N Jacobs was the scene of unusual gayety on last Wednesday afternoon. She was the hostess to her friends at a euchre party given in honor of her sister. * Miss Barbara Jacobs, of Kingstree. The quests drew their score cards of shamrock leaves and were soon engaged in the interesting game of four-handed euchre. Miss Anna Johnstone was awarded the first prize?a beiu* ? r; tiful veil pin of hammered gold. Miss Jacobs and Miss Ervin each received a guest's prize, a set of shirt waist pins. Miss v Kale Morgan won the booby, a bisque doll. Miss Edith McFall drew the consolation, a Japanese free hand painting.

Our rate of exchange at the mill is 1500 lbs. of meal for one ton of seed. It is a conceded fact cotton . seed meal is a-cheaper and k more effecthe fertilizer than cotton seed. . According tov chemical analysis of each 886 pounds of cotton seed meat, k are equivalent to 2000 pounds of cotton seed, but owing to the superior mechanical 0 condition of meal, it is safe to aeeume that 800 pounds of meat *j are the full equivalent to one ton. s' \ of cotton seed, therefore, wbat1 ever excess above 800 pounds of f meal thejfarmer gets in exchange for a ton of seed is so much clear [ profit to him in comparison with [ using the ton of seed directly as a fertilizer. You can readily see that bv excbaDPin? vour seed with us you realize nearly 100 , per cent on the transaction. Bring your seed to us and not make the mistake of getting inferior meal elsewhere in exchange. Our meal is open for inspection. Samples sent on application. Yours, * tSouth Atlantic Oil Co., By Geo.
