OAKLAND.
Oakland, Sept. 29.?The farmers
were glad to see the rain last week
which came in such a calm moderate
way?as often quoted, "It was a red
land soaker." Some pea vine hay had
had been mown and was lying on the
ground exposed to the rain, but was
not damaged very much; It is an evil
wind that doesn't blow good to some
one. The ground being thoroughly
wet has given the farmers other employment
besides picking cotton,
which now seems to be a very worthless
product, and that is, preparing
his land and sowing a very large
ac reage in oats and clover, and a few
acres prepared and well fertilized to
be sown in wheat. The South must
raise more food products and less of
the fleecy staple which she has so
long boosted as being her money crop.
The West seems to be the booster this
time, even though the corn crop in
sections of the West is very short
this year. It is demanding a good
price just like our cotton would have
done if there had been only a ten or
eleven million bale crop made. The
1914 corn crop of Missouri alone will
bring the farmers one hundred twen
ty-two and one-half million dollars?
thirty-five million dollars more than
it would be under normal conditions.
This is quite convincing to us that
the price is higher when the demand
greatest. The state of Kansas will
realize one hundred and sixty-five
million dollars for its wheat crop this
year. The above is just one corn crib
and one wheat bin that is very often
illustrated as being the source from
which the South feeds its razorbacks
and multitudes of people.
The cotton crop is being picked and
ginned very rapidly?there is not
very much being held in the seed as
was first suggested as being a good
plan to hold cotton. I believe the cotton
that has already been ginned and
i l ieu back home should be stored
under shelters instead of being exposed
to the weather as is being done
all over the country.
Last Sunday was set apart as Orphanage
day at our Sunday school.
The Connie Maxwell was mentioned
and all responded with a willingness
as was shown by the nice contribution
that was so quickly collected. I
must make special mention of our
flourishing little Sunday school. The
enthusaistic little people of the school
have attended regularly all during the
hot summer and have done a good
work. Five of our little people have
been converted to Christ through this
little Sabbath school and weekly
prayer meetings which we have been
holding during the summer. My dear
Christian friends of the county, bewi
n tne little people while they
are easily influenced. We greatly
need their cooperation in this great
and good work. From the beginning
make them feel that their work is
just as necessary as ours.

1 YOUNG WHITE MAN IS
BRUTALLY SLAIN IN ROAll
Lawton Jackson is Slain by Negroes.
?Accused are Held.
North, Sept. 28.?Lawton Jackson,
a young white man, was brutally
murdered near here yesterday afternoon
about one-fourth of a mile from
, the Calhoun county line, in Orangeburg
county, and Charley Walker and
Sam Dooley, both negroes, are in jail
charged with the killing. Jackson, it
i seems, was driving quietly along the
road and met the negroes who appeared
to be drinking and proceeded
to assault him with the staff of a
buggy umbrella, striking him several
blows on the head. He was also
struck with a pistol.
Jackson walked about f>0 yards to
, the house of a negro by the name of
Burbank where he was cared for. A
physician was immediately summoned
and everything possible was done
but he died about 9 o'clock.
Lawton Jackson bears the reputation
of being a quiet young man.
Charley Walker is considered a
dangerous character, he having been
in court a number of times for violations
of the laws. He was pardoned
by the governor in February last, the
day after he was convicted in magistrate's
court for violation of a labor
contract.
Sam Dooley's reputation is not
good.
Sheriff Salley of Orangeburg was
notified of the\ killing and he in turn
notified Sheriff Hill of Calhoun to go
to the scene of the difficulty, the negroes
having jfone on in the direction
of St. Matthews. Dr. Sturkie and J.
M. Amaker had captured one of the
po??roes before the arrival of Sheriff
Hill and assisted the sheriff in the
capture of the other and they were
both safely landed behind the bars.
Court a woman and she may wori
"bin you. but marry her and she may
defy you.
We cannot blame some men for not
. taking their own advice.

MRS. WILSON S LAST WISH.
Bill Abolishing Worst Slums in Washington
Becomes Law.
Washington, Sept. 25.?Mrs. Woodrow
Wilson's dying wish that the
worst slums in Washington be abolished
finally was realized today when
the President signed the bill clearing
alleys of dwelling places. On her
deathbed Mrs. Wilson expressed the
hope, that the bill would be passed
and both Houses of Congress acted.
Although it differs in some particulars
from the measure as Mrs. Wilson
originally championed it, the President
decided the measure accomplished
its principal purposes.
