The bakery will be ready for business in a few days. Kingnum-Sanders. Om Wednesday evening at the ChiArch of the Holy Comforter was soleonnized the marriage of Miss Mar garet Sydney Kingman and Mr. Gusjtave Sanders. Xiever was the church more beau tiful.' than on this occasion, the dec orations of Shasta daisies and masses of white hydrangea against a back ground of ferns and palms, lighted by tChe soft radiance of innumerable candiles being the handiwork of Mes&ames Archie China, C. B. Yea don ?and L. B. Phillips. While the guests were assembling a duiet was sung by Mesdames Bruce Lyn;tm and John Lee, and also a solo by Mrs. Lynam. At: the appointed hour the opening chortds of the wedding march from Lohengrin were sounded by Miss Louitee Siddall on the organ and as the bridal party entered the beautiful chonus was sung by a vested choir composed of Mesdames John Lee, Bruoe Lynam. Joseph Guthrie, Fow ler. John Morse, Miss Ellen Siddall and Messrs. Hugh Haynsworth. Geo. Warren. Pierce and David Cuttino. First down the aisle came two fairyMike little ribbon girls, Elizabeth Graham and Mary Chestnut Phillips, in frailly frocks of white organdie; then the ushers, Messrs. John Bland ing and Joe Wiggins, W. O. Court right and Harold Lawson. Thie bridesmaids, all wearing gowns of sheerest organdie in the season's beautiful shades, with hats to match, and carrying graceful baskets of Shasta daisies, entered with the groomsmen in the following order: Miss Emma Pinckney, in a lovely blue gown* with Mr. William Califf of Charleston; Miss Marion Moore of Sa vannah, in rose, with Mr. Delgar Dorn; Miss Marion Coker of Tim j monsvil3e. wearing honeydew. with Mr. Teddy Martin of Charleston and Miss Helen Hunnicutt. of Asheville, in delicate lavender, with Mr. Jerome Collier. The dame of honor, Mrs. W. O. Courtright entered alone, wearing gray organdie with a gray hat and carrying Russell roses. The maid of honor. Miss Sadie San ders of Beaufort, a sister of the groom, preceded the bride. She wore a striking dress of jade green with a large jade green hat. and carried an armful of Russell roses. Arranging themselves in a semi-cir cle about the chancel steps, the at tendants awaited the bride, who en tered with her father, Mr. Charles W. Kingman, who gave her in marriage. Never was she more attractive or her girlish dignity more apparent, than in her bridal costume of duch ess satin with silver lace, the court train falling from the shoulders, and the whole costume clouded by the : misty folds of her tulle veil which was caught with orange blossoms and fell to the hem of her gown. She carried a great armful of bride's roses. The groom entered from the vestry ' with his best man. Dr. E. J. Smith of Charleston, and met the bride at the chancel steps where the betrotnal 1 service was read by the rector, Rev. ? J. B. Walker. Then while the bridal chorus was softly sung by the altos ? and sopranos of the choir, the rector ! led the way to the altar rail, follow ed by the bride and groom, maid of honor, dame of honor and best man. There the solemn marriage vows weie ' taken and the couple pronounced man : and wife. To the strains of Mendelssohn's march the bride and groom left the church preceded by the ribbon girls who stretched the ribbons to the door, and followed by the bride's maids and groomsmen. After the ceremony a large recep tion was given by the bride's parents at their home on Washington street. The whole lower Moor of the spacious ; house was thrown into one and deco rated with quantities of cut flowers. The guests were greeted at the door by Mesdames Geo. Shore and Hamp Forester, and invited into the par lor, where receiving with the bride and groom were Mr. and Mrs. King man. Mr. and Mrs. Gustave Sanders of Beaufort, parents of the groom, and Mrs. Burton of Baltimore, a cous in of the bride. In the living room and on the broad piazza punch was served by Miss Jeannette White and Mesdames J. Z. Hearon. Bruce Lynam and W. U. Courtright. In the dining room numbers of candles in silver candelabara gleamed amid the flowers. The table was spread with a handsome cover and lighted by four pink shaded candles in silver holders. In the center was an elaborately iced bride's cake, which, after being first cut by the bride, was served by Mrs. L. B. Phil lins, with other refreshments consist ing of molds of ice cream, fancy cakes and mints. Serving also in the dining room were Mrs. Tom Siddall, Mrs. Evans Bruner, Miss Margaret DeLorme and Miss Lucile Lynam. Assisting elsewhere during the recep tion were Mesdames W. W. Rees, Fowler. Jennings and Williamson of Columbia. In the upper hall were displayed ar; unusually handsome collection of wedding gilts. The bridal couple left on the 9:30 train, the bride wearing a stylish coat suit of gray trimmed with blue, with shoes and hat to match. After a fortnight they will return to Sumter to make their home for a time with the bride's parents. Mrs. Sanders is the younger daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Kins man, and has always mad?- her home [in Sumter. She is an alumnae of ! Brennan College, Gainesville, Ga. Mr. Sanders comes from Beaufort, but for some time has made his home in Sumter where he is a rising young druggist. Among the out-of-town guests at I tlie wedding were Mr. and Mrs. Gus tave Sandeis of Beaufort, parents of the groom, and his sister. Miss .Julia Sanders: Mrs. Robert Glaribourne Burton of Baltimore and Mrs. Wil liamson of < 'olumbia. "Washington bathers wear only pooi excuses for bathing suits."

South Carolina Dairy Products j Clemson College, Juno 14?The aw ful slump in cotton prices has caused many cotton growers to look fur other types of agriculture to take the place partly of cotton, and a number of these farmers have turned to dairy ing. There is probably no other line of farming-which will tit in so well with cotton growing says M. Ii. Tol strup, associate professor of dairying. In fact, many people contend that it would be possible to rvplace one-third of the cotton acreage with dairy farm ing and still produce practically as much cotton as formerly, since the dairy industry would improve the phy sical and chemical condition of the ! soil to such an extent that the in creased yield would counter-balance the reduction in acreage. South Carolina does not produce daiiy products in sufficient quantity to take care of its own needs, yet there are certain times of the year, when there is a considerable surplus of milk especially, which cannot be disposed of. The conditions really . need not exist and could easily be overcome if everybody would adopt the slogan: "Use South Carolina dairy products in South Carolina." Some people have the erroneous idea that they must "cross the river to get water.* and some people think they can get better and cheaper dairy products outside of their own state. Such reasoning is wrong. In the first place South Carolina can and docs produce as good quality of milk as any other state in the Union. \ although at present she can not pro duce it in quite as large quantities. In the second place although some other states may produce milk a little cheaper than we can, when transpor tation charges and the profits of the several middlemen are aded to the price of the out-of-state products, wc can get our own dairy products a.1 cheap as those from other states, and the home product is in freshei condition. We should therefore improve out opportunities in production and manufacturing, so that we may com pete favorably with other states with rapid strides in that respect. Our next step is to improve the mar keting conditions for the home pro ducts of the dairy farm. In this matter we have been behind but there are signs of improvement Dairymen are getting together slowlj but surely and will see to it thai through co-operation their products will be assembled in large enough quantities to insure economic manu facturing of the highest quality pro duct. Then will come proper and efficient facilities for distribution. Meanwhile let us boost for oui South Carolina dairy products, use them in greater quantities, and buy from the outside only when we can not get enough at home. \\lien all of this is done, we shall have added tr the health, wealth, and happiness ot the population of South Carolina.

Old Cannon j Found Buried i Relic of American Revolution Dug Up Near Harleyvillc Harleyviile. June 15.?A large J cannon bearing rh>> inscription, ''1778,' was found in Four Hole:? Swamp near Harleyvillc, a few days ago by workmen engaged in making excavation for road building. The '-annun with several balls of two different >iz"s was buried be neath an embankment near an *> 1 ri bridge on the road from Charleston to Columbia via Harleyville and was pointed in the direction of the bridge. , The year, 177S. is inscribed on the cannon?also other figures, etc., which are not clearly visible owin.^r to the fact that it is very rusty having been buried so long. j Citizens of the community are very [ much interested in the discovery and [ would like to know just why it was left there, but have not succeeded in gaining the particulars. It is interesting to note that this cannon was found not far distant from historic Kutaw Springs where an important battle of the Revolu tion was fought in 17S1. The citizens of Harleyvillc intend having this famous old gun cleaned and placed in position near their rail road depot <>r on the new concrete bridge which will span Four Hob s in this section, and which will in- a part of the national highway how being built. The cannon is at present in the yard of Hon. H. H. Gross of Harley villc. Stale senator from Dorchester county. State Board of Health Needs New Quarters. j Columbia, tine 1>>.?Following re ; ceipt of the request from the trus tees of the University, for the sur j render of the laboratory space in La Conte College by September 1, the I state department of agriculture, com Imerce and industries has about con cluded arrangements for the use of quarters in the Liberty Trust build j ing on Main street, next door to the Liberty National bank building. These quarters will be used, unless it is found that the University can extend the time for use of the laboratory space on the campus. Both the department of agriculture and the state board of health have been notified to vacate the labora tory rooms in LaConte College. The "board of health will consider this j matter at a meeting to be held in Co lumbia at an early date. Or. .1. A. j Hayne, state health officer, stated yesterday that it would mean a large outlay of money to move the health department laboratories, as their equipment is large. It is said that suitable quarters will not be available, i and if they should bo. there would be I j no funds to cover the rental. The jhealth department keeps a large I stock of rabbits and guinea pigs, for' j use in making experiments, and these J are necessary in connection with the i laboratories. ' A conference of officers of the de- j I j I partment of agriculture will likely be held within a day or two. to de I termine what will In- done in regard to the University's "move out order.1' j j Funds Needed by the Telephone \ v j social ion. _ I Columbia.

E. Hewitt and Advised Him Not To Move Back to His Old Home < .Miirion Star). Monday night the citizens of south Marion were rudely awakened, at [about - o'clock, by the firing of many j pistol shots. The trouble was soon < located at the home of Mr. W. E. I Hewitt, who resides at :he old Atkin j son home on South Main street, j It seems that at that hour Mr. ? Hewitt heard a knock a: his door, and I answering same, found a man. pre sumably in disguise, standing at the [front gate. This man addressed Mr. ! Hewitt, in solemn voice, and warned him that he was getting along well enough in the town of Marion and that it would pay him to stay here rather than move hack to the old Hewitt place in the country, near'. ?Centenary. At this time Mr. Hewitt T ! noticed two automobiles, one parked in the street, south of his home and 'the other north of his home. When the lone man had finished his warning to Mr. Hewitt he started toward one of the cars?and then the fireworks began. Many shots were fired, but all into the air. Doors and windows in the neighborhood popped open, but evidently everybody had duties to at tend to at home. Mr. Hewitt, after the cars left, visit ed the homes of Deputy Beverly and I Sheriff Rowell, but as he had abso j lutely no description of either the ! men involved or the cars used the ! officers had no information to act up j on. This was some time after theHr^ I cars had left and by that time they ! were miles away. Mr. Hewitt 'said that they went south, toward Centen-rt. ? ary. q It is not known what the trouble.' ?> with Mr. Hewitt is, that these night riders should fall upon him. _ ?? z ITolonging the Pea Crop. ' {'.itsl - d E Planting peas for a long crop is ?: beocming one of the fine arts of gar-3 s dening and is a matter of selecting--'.: tili- various varieties as well asiU.' planting at different times. The pea.'.'.O now come in very early, the round s seeded varieties such as Alaska, the :r early, the first of the wrinkled va-,-.c rieties. the second early, and the late r"' or main crop. A selection of seed of. v, each class will prolong the season of >i t fresh peas from two to three weeks 3 without planting at different times. There are a great many varieties to 3 select fron; ami it is sometimes a dif- >?:: heult task to gett im right varieties, c as some will do well in one locality ? while they will not be at their best in -y another. It is a wise plan to consult the nearest reliable seed house in - your neighborhood as to the varieties ?best suited for your sootion and then there will lie little chanee to make mistakes. Some of the most highly praised newer varieties may be un- - suited for your section but the seeds man will know and inquiry among successful gardeners of the neigh borhood will be an excellent guide. Peas should not be planted more than two or three inches deep early in the season when heavy spring rains arc likely to pack the soil, but the later plantings when the weather ? is more settled, the soil drier, and less likelihood of continued wet r"; spells, they hould go deeper as tha pea is esscntia?y a cool weather plant and must 'nave a cool root run to do well. Tlmrc is considerable variation in the dateo !' bearing ni the various va rieties and four or five planted at the same time might come into bearing a few days apart. Take notes on the !>eas as to when they were planted iml when the first crop was picked md you will have an accurate guide ? ? regulate successional planting. The tall Or bush peas yield much norc heavily than the dwarfs but the limculty of securing an adequate sup dy of brush for them and the ex >ense of furnishing chicken wire fenc ng makes the dwarf varieties more ?opular with the average gardener.
