Almost 30,000,000 hampers nre used annually, but because of the different shapes and sizes of these hampers, It Is practically Impossible for a pur chaser to know Just bow much he Is Retfin? wt.pn he buys a bumper of produce, the department says. It Is estimated, for example, that one-third of the so-called half-bushel hampers manufactured today are short oj ens ure. Twenty different sizes of round stave baskets are In general use, whereas six would be sufficient. Approximately 20,000,000 of those round stave baskets are manufactured annually. A similar situation prevails with regard to so called market baskets or splint bus- Editor Beaufort News. have read Dr. Davis' letter of week to the Beaufort News and vill have to commend hi.n on it for I see things just liks he does.

He thinks he has added another star in his crown when he got the bill through the legislature to allow our county cjnimissiuners to sell more bo;rJ3 ovar us without putting it to a vote of the people.

Many basket manufacturers are striv ing to put out nn artb'ie which will stand up under heavy use, but there are also many baskets of poor quality on the market, it is pointed out. The investigations brought out the fact that 13 styles ; stave baskets, vsiryi quart to 24 quarts, n about 40 sizes of cabbage crates, about 20 stylos of celery crates, IsO lettuce crates or boxes, and ."0 stylos and sizes of hampers, although u relatively few standard sizes would satisfy all the demands of the trade.

Adoption of federal "For if God spar ed not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to Hell and delivered them into chains of darkness to be reserved unto judgment."

My. friend I cant but think in common use that God will overthrow this county if something aint done soon. ! Now my readers I want to say a little more about when Mr. Chadwiek was chairman of the board. Ke built the new court house with this low valuation on property that I have mentioned in my letter1 and made but very little change in tne property as long as he stayed one of the county commissioners.

BNti NEW TEXTILE DIRECTORY SHOWS GROWTH IN SOUTH Washington, D. C. March 14 The 1925 Textile Directory of the South ern Railway System, just issued, shows that, notwithstanding the fact that 1924 was a year of general de pression in the textile industry throughout the world, the remarkable growth in the South again enphasiz es the advantages of this territory for textile manufacturing. Thi3 directory lists 1,015 plants operating 13,006,246 spindles, 257, 45 looms and 43,473 knitting ma chines located at point3 served by 'Southern Railway lines at the end of j 1924. j In all of the Southern States there are now 17,359,420 spindles, or 45.82 per cent of the total machinery en gaged in the spinning of cotton in the ; United States. There was a net in-j 'crease of 612,374 spindles in the South in 1924 and a net decrease of. Prune, Spray, Fertilize, to Rejuvenate Orchard eise. Many fanners have had time lo turn to their orchards once more this win ter, some of them for the first time In many years, and they are asking about what they should do to rejuvenate a rundown orchard, to bring them more fruit without much expense. The first consideration in such cases Is pruning to rid the trees of dead and extra growth. The second consideration Is to spray at least enough to rid the trees from fungous and other disease, part- ! ly to increase yields and partly to ' give larger and better fruit. The third consideration, then, Is to , build up the soil. This can be done in j a single year, by the application of j eertiiin soil fertilizers not the least of I which Is manure. But a more eoo- noiiiKal and much more tjp. by siurtlng on a program of building up for several years, by the use of oul : 1 vtitiun and legume crops. Of the legumes, alfalfa has given good re sults but Is sometimes hard to start. Clover has also been a good short time builder. But the best of all seems to be sweet clover. Where a pasture sod has been es tablished in the orchard. It Is bettor to cut the hay and leave It for a mulch. This is hard to do, however, county commissioners new, but I can say this about Mr. Chadwiek that he done more for the county to save the people than any of the rest. Now my friends I understand that Mr. Wright is going to leave the county in July. As far as my part he could have left four years ago. What do you think about it I hops they will get one just as good or bet ter or worse. I would like to hear from some one Don't be afraid to say what you think about the management of this county. We had better live more for God than we do or I feel like that the end of time is not far off I could say more but I will close. Let me hear from some one else. From your friend, E. L. McCAIN.

"Just before my . . . camei on," said Mrs. Lambert, "I would ache all over. My feet, my toes, my arms, hands, head my whole body seemed to be in one awful pain. I would grow so nervous that I could not hold a cup in my hand. My husband would have to hold my coffee for me to drink. Last fall I was in such a bad condition that I had to spend about three days in bed every month. It seemed to me that I was on my last go-round." Then one day, said Mrs. Lam bert, she happened to read about Cardui and the experiences of some women who had been helped by it I felt that Cardni might help roe if I triad it," she continued, "for I had been suf fering with similar troubles to those mentioned there. I had heard of Cardui all my life and ' I knew many women who said they had been helped by it. The very next day I began to take it. "Very soon after, I began to notice my improvement. I kept on till I felt like a different woman. I gained in weight from 98 pounds to 115 and felt better j than I had in years. I took six j bottles right along and found it a splendid tonic. My suffering was partly due to a run-down condition and the Cardui stimu lated my appetite and helped me to gain the strength I needed. . . . I take a bottle every now and then, even now, just as a tonic to keep up my strength, but I am in better health than I have been in for years." All druggists sell Cardui. Try it m C. H.
