I Interesting Budget From Salters.
Salters Depot, Nov. 28.?We hav<
had some warm, unseasonable we^thei
the past week, but it is much coolei
to-day. Sunday was a day of regulai
summer time thunder clouds, with
rain which was much needed.
Oats, wheat and rye look fine. Th(
largest crop of field peas has beer
made in this section this year thai
has been made in ten years or more
and have been gathered.
Mr. J. H. Montgomery, who had the
misfortune to lose a large iyirt ol
his saw mill by fire a short time ago
is about ready to saw again, having
made about all necessary repairs.
Mr. and Mrs. D. T. Hamilton o<
Florence spent Friday night with relatives
here.
Mrs. J. M. Sires, Jr., and little
daughter, of Charleston are visiting
Mrs. Sires' mother, Mrs. Mattie Ferrell
of this place.
Mrs. Mattie Ferrel, Mrs. J. M. Sires,
Mrs. J. M. Sires, Jr., Mrs. Mary N.
Sparks, Mrs. Carrie Douglas and Mr.
J. D. McCullough motored to Sumter
Friday and spent the day with friends.
Misses Winnie Davis, Leila Ferrell
and Jennie Salters returned to Olanta
Monday morning after spending the
Thanksgiving holidays at their respective
homes here.
We are very sorry to note that
Mrs. H. W. Shealey, who has been
in Charleston the past month undergoing
treatment, died Friday at Baker's
Sanatorium and was taken to
Columbia Saturday morning for interment.
We sympathize deeply with
the bereaved family. Rev. and Mrs.
Shealey have only been on this charge
one year.
Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Boswell have
moved to Kingstr^e. Mr. Boswell
came here nineteen years ago, relieving
Mr. W. Salters as depot and express
agent when the station was
changed to a telegraph office. He
has always been ready to help in any
f AA fnmn onr]
enterprise UCUCHVK'4 w wiv
community and while we hate to loss
these good friends, we feel that it
will be to their best interest to reside
in Kingstree.
Mr. R. S. Burrows will occupy M*.
Boswell's former residence here. We
welcome these good folks to our town
Thanksgiving day passed off quitely
here. A good many hunters were
out shooting birds.
Mr. Edd Layton of Florence spent
Thanksgiving with Mr. A. R. Mosely
and enjoyed a bird hunt.
Mr. Douglas of Charleston spent
Thursday with relatives here, hunting
Mrs. Daisy Sparks of Clieraw, is
visiting Mrs. May Sparks this week
Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Richardson have

Notice to All Ex-Service Men.
The attention of all ex-service mer
is called to the fact that after January
1st, 1922, no Government Insurance
can be reinstated. The time
is short and every ex-soldier is urge*
to think earefullv before he a.llows
his insurance to lapse altogether.
Insurance may still be reinstatec
by the payment of two months premiums.
It is also necessary to b<
examined by a physician. Doctors
, have recently been appointed in different
sections who are to give the
examinations free of charge.
No other Insurance company is
able to be so lenient with its policj
holders. Any insurance man can tel
you that government insurance equals
and, in many respects, surpasses all
other kinds of insurance.
Further information on this subject
and the necessary blanks for application
for reinstatement may b(
obtained from the Red Cross office

THEIR PROGRESS.
i "
Florence, Nov. 29.?Co-operative
marketing of truck crops has been j tc
taken up vigorously by the farmers C;
. of Williamsburg county. James N. T:
McBride, development agent of the at
Seaboard Air Line, reported today Y
. upon returning to headquarters in lii
Florence, after a trip through > that qi
county. He states associations are di
being forme^ especially for beans 2'
and English peas. Four such asso- at
, ciations have been formed recently, st
. he reports, and are in operation now. bi
Hemingway has organized, electing c.i
D. G. Huggins as president and J. cv
F. Bushart as secretary*. This organ- c?
ization will control between 250 and n(
300 acres of early beans and peas, ca
, Trio has organized with J. W. Moore vr
as president and J. H. Salters as sec- di
retary. They will have a large acre- p?
age of truck as Hemingway. Salters oi
Depot has its association, of which oj;
J. N. Sheppard is president Greely- at
ville is perfecting her organization, co
These four associations will control sc
nmKoVil v nc mnrh as 1.000 acres of I
truck, Mr. McBride believes. to
Leading truck growers of Williams}
burg pli.n to organize each market, ag
as a Iocf.l shipping association. Then cc
each local organization will become wi
associated with all others on a com- tr
, modity organization basis. The plans re
have met with much success up to co
, the present. The form of contract su
is similiar to the one which is being
used now for cotton and tobacco. The
work is being pushed with the expecta,
tion that the majority of the acre,
age will have been contracted before
I the planting season next spring. ]a
I Both the South Carolina Extention q

ment of the Seaboard Air Line are m
much interested in this work and are ^

Dear Sir: In a statement recently
ued by Thomas W. Tannor, specist
in cotton marketing, with the
ited States Department of Agriture,
he has the following to say:
'A series of experiments concfucted
ently by the Bureau of Markets
1 Crop Estimates have shown that
bale of cotton placed out in the'
;n, flat on the ground with no covng,
was damaged to the extent of
) pounds at the end of eight months,
other bale placed on edge, with no
ther attention, lost 167 pounds,
bale on edge and turned over once
week, lost 110 pounds. A bale
ced on timbers off the ground and
ned over once a week, lost 49
inds, and a bale placed on timbers
i covered with tarpaulin lost but
pound 3. A warehouse bale of coti
during the same period lost only
>ound.
n traveling over the dicerent couns
of my district, Florence, Marion,
rry, Dillion and Williamsburg, I
md hundreds and hundreds of bales
; in the open. Very often I stop
1 ask the farmer why>he lets his
ton remain out in the open? His
ily generally is that if costs too
ch to store it He does not realize
it it is costing him several times
re to keep his cotton out in the
?n than it would cost to store it
a warehouse.
It the present price of cotton a
mer can store his cotton on his
n plantation for something less
in $1.57 per bale per year. That
if he places his warehouse under
: State Warehouse System. Or he
i take his cotton to a town warelse
and the storage will be someng
like $6.00 per year. In either
ie it would be a great saving to the
mer. Storage includes insurance,

WOMAN POURS OUT
STORY TO CRYSTAL
I . ; *
MISS CLARKE, DEVOTEE OF OUIJA
BOARD ON TRIAL FOR
MULDER.
I . .
The jury hearing the case at Orlando,
Fla., of Lena M. T. Clarke and
Baxter H. Patterson, charged with
the murder of Fred A. Miltimore,
Monday heard the woman's story re1
cited under the spell of a crystal,
i Unique in the annals of jurisprudence,
the woman, an announced dei
votee of the ouija. had the crystal
steadily before her in order that she
could concentrate, as it was explained.
She held Miltimore responsible foifthe
theft of $38,000 from the West Palm
Beach postoffice in 1918 which reflected
on her brother, Paul. Her attempt
to cover this shortage culminated in
her taking $32,000 from a registered
package late in July of this year.
When postal inspectors waxed warm
in their investigation she came to Orlando,
accompanied by Patterson, in
search of Miltimore. As to the killing
of the man she suffered a lapse of
memory. Her testimony exonerated
Patterson as to having any part in
the actual slaying. ^ '<J
Miss Clarke, who occupied the stand
for more than two hours, told the
same story she had given in a signed
statement shortly after Miltimore's
body was found in her room at a local
hotel. She mentioned Joseph K
Elwell, murdered New York sportsman,
as having loaned her $38,000 in
1918 because of his friendship for her
brother. To repay him she was forced
to start on a career of doctoring
the accounts. Her mention of Elwell's
name shortly after her. arrest
caused a flurry in police circles because
of the fact that Elwell's assassins
have never been arrested. It
was quickly established, however, that
the woman had not been north of Atlanta,
Ga., since a young girl.
Her testimony in regard to the theft
of $38,000 from the postoffice disagrees
with that of Postal Inspector
W. B. Brandon, who told the jury
Saturday of his investigation into the
postoffice irregularities. These irregularities
began before she assumed
charge as postmistress, he testified,
but there was neyer a shortage of
t>no AAA TU? .kn<^nMo Via gai'H AT
$OOjW/V. I I1C OllVl ?kv
elusive of the $32,000, totaled approximately
$5,000.
As Miss Clarke neared the end of
her recital of events daring her interview
with Miltimore in her room she
took a flight into matters of spiritu- >
alism. She remembered giving the
man a drug, she testified, but from
then on her mind was a blank until
she met Patterson in the hotel corridor
and together they went to the office
of Chief of Police Vestel.
State's witnesses have testified that
no trace of a drug were found when
an examination of Miltimore's viscera
was made.
Miss Clarke climaxed her testimony
with the assertion that "Aunt Sara"
taught her to read and write before .
she was born.
