I attended the Sunday School con- ^ mention at Mt. Tabor on the 28th. jn :here was a large attendance. Mr. It. W. Adams, the township superin:endent, deserves much praise for his jood and faithful work. He never rails to have a pood convention and he / s doinp a pood work in bis township. I was in Cherokee county last week. ^ \ttended the Sunnyside school comnencement, which was real pood. There were seven praduates from this school. It is one amonp the best schools I know of in the rural dis- y :ricts. While in Cherokee county I stopped it the hospitable home of Mr. Ren McCullouph, who lives between Broad , ind Pacolet river. I spent the nipht p with him and his kind family. The a, lext day Mr. McCullouph showed me iround. We went down to the river C( ind saw where Pacolet river emptied j)( nto Broad river. There I saw some f( fine bottom land prepared for corn. rt Oh, I forgot to tell you we had some fish to eat while w$ were over tl thpr* as well as other good things. Mr. McCullouph and some of the [lands on the place had just caught a basketful of fish and, you see, I hap- k) pened in at the right time. 1,1 Well, I never finished telling of my tr trip to Charlotte in my last letter. k( There were other parties who went w from Jonesville in their autos. Among a] them were Messrs. Ha;r Webber, D. B. Free, Reuben Lindsay, Eddie Mc- a] Whirter, W. F. Webber. Also Mr. Clarence Lipford, carrying Messrs. H. o; F. McWhirter, Dr. H. T. Harnes, Dr. ir G. W. B. Smith and Walter Hames. u There was a sham battle and it was G1 fine?composed of three regiments of c< infantry, six companies of artillery. They shot 40,000 rounds. Nobody p killed of course, for this was a sham w battle. There were 700 automobiles there. I said to some fellow when 1 y came back to Jonesville that all the automobiles there had ever been made v were there. f: Mr. A. H. Gossett sent me a copy f, [>f The Union Times published in 1884. 0 His father, Mr. H. W. Gossett, was a k subscriber at that time and Mr. R. tl M. Stokes was the editor. This is the tl eldest Union Times that this writer r, has seen. This paper then was called rhe Weekly Union Times, only a little iifference to what it is now. R. MacBeth was sheriff at that time. I see :wo weddings that took place at that 7 :ime, which names I remember, Rutch snd Lee married at the bride's fathsr, Mr. B. W. Lee, in Bogansville si township by Rev. M. H.

Moxy. m ei SEND FOR THE c( AGRICULTURAL YEARBOOK, h] We earnestly urge every wide- ^ iwake Progressive Farmer reader to j Irop a postal to his congressman or ^ United States senator saying, "Please send me a free copy of the United states Department of Agriculture Yearbook for for 1915." It is just >ff the press, and full of valuable in'ormation. K| When the writer was in Ireland four f( pears ago we reminded our readers -s ;hat while the Department of Agrimlture there gave farmers much in- H] 'ormation about rural cooperation, our n] )wn American Department had never ? ssued a single bulletin on this im!>ortant subject. Since Secretary of Agriculture Houston came into office ? ie has remedied this condition, we are a {lad to say; and the new Yearbook D ?ives proper recognition to all three phases of the rural problem?"Better ORTUI s come as pleasan derful shopping eve osc Saturday Nigl :s. You are always gains at SEE Next Door to I irminfj, Better Business, Better Liv- i C." The first article fnllnutin<? cretary's report is on "The Coopative Purchase of Farm Supplies"; hile kindred articles discuss "A Sucissful Rural Cooperative Laundry," low the Department of Agriculture romotes Organization in Rural Life" id "How Hawaii Helps Her Farmers ^ arket Their Produce." g We mention only these articles relive to rural cooperation and market- ^ g. There are also many valuable 2 tides on farm practice, while the <10 { iges of maps showing crop acreage, f elds, live-stock conditions, etc., etc., * l state1-, forms an especially valuable s ature. Readers who take our advice, ^ sk for the Yearbook and read it, will . ank us for this reminder.?The Pro- 1 ressive Farmer. jMANGLING A WORD. 1 S /hy "Comptroller" Is Used Instead of j the Correct "Controller."

Hint money, wedged the false and |1 erverting letter "p" with an "in" be>re it into a perfectly good and corset ly formed word. In late I. a tin the word is "contrarollator." The keeper of the king's rol's, le payroll and other accounts, was the j rotulator." To guard against the posble dishonesty of that olticial the ng appointed an auditor to check up ~ Is accounts and called him the "co^ nrotulator"?that is, tlie counter roll | wiwr. ivrom contrarotuiator" tbe ord 1ms come into modern languages. lwnys without the offending "p." In French, Spanish, Italian, (lorman ad Russian we have the word "con ol," meaning tlie keeping or auditing f accounts, and the title of the olilcer i those languages is spelled always _ ithout the "111" and the "p." When ur commissioners to the Paris peace inference in 1808 used the word "con ol." meaning political control of the hilippines. the Spanish commissioners 'ere puzzled; they thought our repre?ntatives were speaking of matters of nnnce. But the word "comptroller," with its icious spelling and implication of a ilse etymology, is imbedded in the = ?deral statutes and in the constitution f the state of New York. All the ing's oxen could not pull it out against le Boeotian indifference and inertia of lose who. if they would, might corset the blunder.?New York Times. JAPANESE GARDENS. heir Abri Is Always to Repreeent Nature In Miniature. Every Japanese house of any preten Ions must have a garden. The cost f one is invariably reckoned with the itimates for house building, being sunllv est iimi t oil nt iinn.tnnMi !?/? f the house. The Japan Magazine dls of the procedure: When the niwnshi (landscape garener) gets the contract for a garden e first makes a model that is. a ininiture garden embodying every feature int the tinal product will have. The rst thing to be done in laying out the arden is to select the place for the ike or pond and excavate it. The artti thus obtained is utilized for the _ [instruction of an artiilcial bill ami Iso for a small island, both of these J 'atures being considered necessities, ext in importance is the placing of le stone lantern; then comes an artisc bridge to the island. Next comes ie placing of trees, rocks and stones ith due consideration for the appear nee of the garden as a whole. Japanese do not place much value = i a new garden, age being of far i renter importance. It is not until a | >w years have passed that the garden considered at its best, for tbe stones ~ nd tree trunks must be moss covered . nd tbe whole must give the appear- ~ nee of nature's rather than man's ^ ork. E Tbe garden is not laid out according t< ? any scientific plan. It is rather a latter of Instinct and experience, the j Im of the artist being to represent s store in miniature. ? r NflTY I t news to the mt. ?
