BUY YOUR SEED EARLY.
Seed Oats, Wheat and Rye to be High
This Fall.
Clemson College, SC. Aug 8?Owing
to the small crop of small grain
^ made this year seed will likely be
v ^ much higher than they were last
year. Already seedsmen are buying
up all they can get in order to get
the benefit of the possible high
prices this fall. As much as $2 per
bushel is already being asked for
seed oats. Those who expect to plant
much small grain this fall should
make every effort possible to get the

paying of higher prices this fall.
Seedsmen are buying now at prices
higher than were paid last year, and
this should cause every farmer who
expects to plant small grain to get
the seed now. By all me&ns there
should be a larger crop of small
grain planted this fall than ever before,
and a big saving can be made
by buying seed now. There are a
number of farmers who will have
ome seed to sell, and by buying from
those nearest home, a saving in
freight can be made. Those who have
seed to sell, should offer them on the
lf.ftil markpt. Plans should be made
now to get in a pood big crop of
small grain, and the seed purchased
as soon as possible.
A Painless War Cure For Burns.
Readers who have suffered severe
burns will be particularly interested
in the new cure that a French physician
has discovered, and is using successfully
to save the lives of soldiers
in the great war.
A soldier from the Somme, says
the American World's Work, was
brought into St Nicholas Hospital,
near Paris, so badlv burned that he
was hardly recognizable as a human
being. Just six weeks later he was
up and walking about, and the only
indication that he showed of having
ever been burned was here and there
a discoloration of the skin. The new
skin that had grown over two thirds
^ of his body was just like the skin
that was there before, except for a
few smudges of dark coloring; but
in the course of a few months even
that will have as even a pigment as
the rest of his skin. There are no
drawn places and no reddened tissue.
No less remarkable is the fact that

first day.
St Nicholas Hospital is full of similar
or even worse cases. In the last
year it has cured 450 case3 of extensive
burns. Itis designated the "hospital
for the badly burned," and a
glance any morning into one of its
dressing rooms shows how thoroughly
its name is justified.
The cure is simple and easy to understand.
A young soldier with his
hands and forearms bandaged is led
in by an orderly and seated on a
stool. A nurse removes the bandages
and the burned skin. She washes off
the pus with a small rubber hose,and
dries the flesh with an electric hotair
drier. Then she brings an atomiser
filled wif-h a hot lirmid. Thisshe
sprays carefully over the hands and
forearms, until they are entirely covered
with a soft, white, waxlike film, j
While that film is still hot. she lays
trip3 of thin cotton batting over it
and paints them with the same liquid
until the whole wound is sealed in
under the drying liquid. Then she
wraps it up in thicker cotton batting.
A week later the hands are covered
with a new, supple skin.
It is jiot quite so simple a matter
when the burns are deeper, but the
process is always the same and does
not vary with the degree of the burn.
The liquid is a combination of paraffin
and resin. Laid on with a brush,
it would be painful, but as it drops
in tiny globules, the patient does not
even feel the fall of the spray on the
flock The tpmnemtnrp nf thin 15
quid, when applied, is 158 degreesF.
It would cause considerable pain if
applied to healthy skin, buton raw flesh
it creates no feeling of discomfort.
An excellent course in military
training under competent instructors
will be offered at the University of
South Carolina next session. This
course will be compulsory for freshfraen
and sophomores and voluntary
for all other students. Guns and accoutrements
have been furnished by
the United States government, and
an army officer will be detailed for
this service as soon as available.
95,
Mr Thompson Moves to Timmonsville.
It will be learned with regret that
Mr W E Thompson, who has been a
resident of Georgetown for the past
ten years, is leaving August first to
make his home in Timmonsville. Mr
Thompson has been head salesman
of the Steele-Moses Company for the
past four years and numbers his
friends by the hundreds. In Timmonsville
he will be connected with
the .Tnhn McSween Company, per
haps the largest firm of that section
of the State and they are to be congratulated
upon securing Mr Thompson's
services.
f
Possessed of pleasing approach,
accommodating, steady and courteous
Mr Thompson easily made
friends and making them kept them.
He is a member of the deacon's
board of the Georgetown Presby
terian church and has always taken
a keen interest in the affairs of that
denomination. He will be missed in
Georgetown and Timmonsville is indeed
fortunate in securing him as a
citizen. ? GergeUnon Times.
Mr Thompson is a son of Mr and
Mrs W H Thompson, near Kingstree.
and his friends in this section
endorse all that is said above.
Up a Tree.
Farmer Brown espied a little boy
industriously collecting apples from*
the topmost branches of his choicest i
tree. With a sly grin he stole back'
to the farmhouse and took a stuffed!
image of Pongo, his greatly mourn-'
ed sheep dog, from the cupboard j
and in a few minutes the stuffed dog j
had been placed at the foot of the
tree.
The farmer then proceeded with
the business of the farm, and the
men wondered why every now and
then he chuckled to himself.
An hour went by, and the farmer
was once more at the foot of the
tree.
"Hullo, there!" he cried. "What
are ye doing up my tree, eh?"
the boy was pale and quivering
with fright; but he had not altogether
lost his presence of mind.
"P?please,sir," he shivered, "thac
great big dog down there," pointing
to the well-preserved Pongo, "he
chased me, he did, all over your
meadow, an' I had to climb this tree
to get out of his way!"? Woman's
World.
Just as others have said,"I do not
see how the Kingstree Furniture Co
can sell better goods for less money."
"There's a reason." I do not
know the tobacco business; I do
know the furniture business. We
have gentlemen in Kingstree that do
know the tobacco business and will
pay you all your tobacco is worth,
