Lockhart Junction, May 12.?The weather continues dry and cold, bad stands of cotton in this section, wheat and oats are needing rain. Mr. Jack McKinney has the finest volunteeer oats I have seen, also some real fine vetch and oats mixed, $owed in the same field ,and if it rains soon he will make a good yield. The picnic at the Gault school was well attended, a very large gathering from several sections of the county and some visitors from Cherokee county all enjoyed a good dinner. Violin music was furnished by Messrs. T. B. Kelly, D. C. White and R. B. Gault. The young folks both young ladies and men had a fine game of baseball which was very interesting. As thev had a playing: on each side, and they sure did play well and enjoyed it, as it reminded them of how they used to play. After the dinner we had three good speeches by Rev. W. H. Arial, of Jonesville, and F. E. Hodges, the Methodist preaches, of the Kelton circuit and Hon. H. C. Little, who is our next Supt. of education. They all made able addresses. This picnic was given in honor of our teacher. Miss Sallie Cunningham, of Liberty Hill. Her school closed here last Friday. Miss Cunningham has resigned and will teach in some other section. We will speak for the P?-J trons of this school and being one of the trustees we regret to give her up for she has taught for us two sessions and has given perfect satisfaction. We wish for her much success wherever she mav irn. and mon*r good wishes follow her. Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Scott of the New Hope section visited Mta.

C. & O. railroad at Irwin, Tenn., visited the family of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Moss, the VYCcrv jum passed. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Jeter, Jr., of Union, were visiting his parents and relatives in Santus Sunday. Mrs. Geo H. Oetzel, of Union, made a call upon some of her old friends in Santuc last week, and incidently, the mother of the writer, whom she used to spend summer with when she was a school girl. Miss Clara Gilmore, who has been teaching near Beanfort, came home this week for her vacation. Mr. I.abon Whitlock, railroad agent, has been transfered from this station to Alston, and Mr. Ellis is now agent in his stead. Master Earl and little Miss Irene Jetcv, now of Sedalia, are spending some time with their grandmother, Mrs. H. C. Jeter. The railroad painting force was here last week, and renewed the paint on the section house, the depot, etc. l am glad that Vox has written again for the Times and hope he will continue from time to time, at least. I always liked to read his articles. He and I were always sort of chummy anyway, he and my father wore in the war together for a while down on the coast, and I heard father speak of him. And I like all of the brother pencil pushers, and more especially when I am well acquainted with them. I saw Tele 5 COUNTY phone passing through here on his way home from Columbia. The train gave me time to shake his hand and have a short talk. What Gov. Blease says about laws delays may be in a great part true, as to lynch laws, and as to lawyers defending negro brutes, or any other kind as to that, let us say bad character whom the lawyers know, may also be true, but again let us say the abuse of the pardoning power by an unscrupulous man, turning out all of the worse characters, is far worse. It is the most brazen cM&k or gall that that sort of a man should ever say anything about enforcing laws, and when laws are enforced tears down the court's work. mi ? ? * i nree men, a uerman, a r rencnman and an Irishman, were discussing once, the nationality of those things which infest the human body and causes sickness, I believe professional men call them microorganistrfs, etc. The Irishman claimed them to be Irish because they were named mike (being microbes.) The Frenchman claimed them to be from Paris, as they were Paris-ites, and the German said they were from Germany, being a germ (an). Well let them have it so, but if colds come from a germ, a microbe or a parisite, and each is of a distinct "nationality," I think the whole team of the foreigners get on to me in one night without giving me any warning for .ifee? had me aroused before day with such a sudden cold that for a while I thought it (or they) were entirely foreign to me, and I was feeling^entirely too bad for Sunday. I believe I had as soon a witch would ride me. Hadn't you Mr. Editor. The clerks and the merchants have commenced to close up at six o'clock and people, especially farmers, if they need anything touching their business, they must hustle around and quit work earlier to go to the store, or they are out. There is some amusing incidents connected with the six o'clock closing in the past. In one instance the stores would close, and the merchants and clerks would sit on the doors until dark, but they would not sell you anything Once a man rode three mrfca to-the store to trade, and got theM about 5:30 o'clock, and another customer being ahead he had to wait a ujfrlle, then he got a cake of soap, a i^ckage of soda, a pound of coffee* 26 cents worth of sugar, a 10cenfc plutof tobacco, and turned to of bacon and a HHRmnt they closed at six; and y>Be hid to go home, and next day had! to stop plowing and ride the thri ? miles again each way, to get son (thing for his people to eat After that, he always went in the morning, for he made more time to ^ ait an hour and a half for them to i et up, so he could trade. V ill you answer me and tell if this is a repetition of the spring and sun ner of 1911? It is so dry down this way that very few seeds will gen inate, and then plants won't gro^. There is not much cotton seed to be planted, the farmers were much earlier this year, but much corn is to bl- planted, and what is worse, much land that has not been touched with a plow, and it is very hard to plow well. Land was very troublesome to prepare this year, and the greatest part of it was very roughly prepared. Harrowing land is a great benefit, and I believe that about every man tries to work too much land, at least to the amount of that which he has not time to harrow well, for I do not believe there ever is an acre of land prepared well with only one plowing, no matter how good the plowing is done. We have too much to go over. At the begining of the season this year, land hardened rap idly, and I had some which broke up cloddy, but in a few days we had some good rains and then I ran an "Acme" harrow over the roughest places, and when the land was "laid" otT that portion felt almost like walking on a carpet compared with the other, and held the moisture so much longer. It is moist now. I believe we don't use the harrow enough, or the plank drag. Then this year is a record breaker as to temperature. The first week in May the temperature was 96 to 97 degrees, maximum, and the morning along about tO, with a range of from 40 to 46 degrees, the greatest daily range that I ever saw at this season of the year. ^ Farmers are about scorched before ; aid behind, and the dry weather ^ about i mnniy tut; smuu grain t ?p. 1 could make a comparison, lliut it might not be interesting. la Foley's Kidney Pills repm your confidence in their healing a?|l curative qualities.
