CO. !: I * fi REALIZED BOYHOOD DREAM :eW Men Have So Splendidly Re- 1 deemed Early Promises as Did 3 : Late John Burroughs. The first ambition of John Bur- 1 oughs was to be a king, and his secnd, the one which the beloved natu- J alist grew to fulfill, was to be a "Hndr-out of things." His father was In- ' erested in the little boy's dreams, and { ft en talked to him about them. In My Boyhood," his posthumous book >f recollections, Burroughs writes: "I remember riding on his shoul- 1 ler in the downstairs ball, as he ' kipped about with me, and of being ace to face, on equal terms, with the tall lamp, and of telling father that chen I grew up I was going to be a ting, and of father telling me at once hat they hung kings on a sour apple ree. It was always a sour apple tree, lever a sweet one, used for hanging. So I was glad to relinquish the idea if being a king and to become, instead, L 'finder-out of things.' IIow father lid laugh at that!

SAVE THE MELONS Clemson College, June 16.?Many carloads of watermelons are lost annually by South Carolina melons growers through stem-end rot developed while the melons are in transit to market which could be saved with slight trouble and expense by a simple treatment of the stem with Bordeaux paste at the time of loading in the cars. To help melon growers save the big loss during the shipping season now at hand, the Extension Service has issued Information Card No. 21, "Prevention of Stem-end Rot of Watermelons," which may be had free upon request from the Extension Service, Clemson College, S. C., or from the county agents. The card calls attention to the method of treatment, which consists of recutting the stems at the cars and painting them with Bordeaux paste; and to the method of making the paste by using 8 ounces of bluestone and 4 ounces of starch to one gallon of water, this quantity of paste being sufficient to treat two to four carloads of mellons. This home-made paste is easily made according to the instructions given and may be kept a week or ten days if desired in glass or eatrhen vessels. A commercial paste may now be obtained also. 1 _______ WILLIAMS?WINBURN | Mr. Baxter Williams of this section and Miss Ellen Winburn of Darlington county were married Wednesday, June 14.

Y., and tied up traffic on Sarkill's busiest corner. Colonel Johnaon said that in all hia fifty years' experience as In engineer he had never encountered aa stubborn a beast. Nanny held her ground obstinately and butted several persons who attempted tot move her. George Shaw, a motorist of Hackensack, was knocked down by the animal. Then, stretching herself out, she lay down on the track, at the same time keeping a watchful eye on her enemies. Engineer Johnson blew his whistle, autoists sounded horns and some threw stones, but to no avail. Traffic kept piling up. Nobody wanted to drive over the animal At last John Shaw lassoed her and tugged on the rope, only to be butted when she decided to move from the j spot. The rope was fastened to a flivver, the goat was removed a distance of 100 yards and the procession moved on. tTHY ND PLANTS in Lindley Nursery Co., of e endorsement of Clemson ses are dear at any price, uch a small matter to what n, fertilizer, etc., is that a to save a few cents in the omething that will dissap- 11 M 1 west for high grade trees Id have to pay ordering di h me for your fruit trees, assured of complete satis- I .
