average amount of thirty-six places

The percentage Of possible sunshine
ranged between So and %, averaging
about ~ for the State, which IL about
the usual.
The winds were generally light south
easterly the entire week, except that
on two days they were variable.
Cotton does not appear as promising
as heretofore, due to rust having ap-
peared in places, and there are many
reports of shedding both leaves ana

badly and its condition has deterior-

Tobacco curing continues, and wher-

to be OF superior quality.
The condition OF the rice crop contin.

better than for many years past, except
In Georgetown county, where it is pos
sibly below an average.
Sorghum cane is generally fair

stated whether this was due to faulty
cultivation or dry weathcr-likely Of

The following is the report of the
weather bureau for the week ending

While in the main the crop pros
poets continue promising, they have
become greatly diversified throughout
the State, and in u few counties are in
a critical stage owing to the droughty
conditions that prevail. During the
week just past there were no severe

dersCorm of the 25th (Thursday) that
blew down corn and shook much unripe
fruit from the trees there was another
windstorm over the same section on
the 28th Sunday, but in both in
stances the injury done was compare
lively light.
The temperature for the entire week
was seaoonable and satisfactory, being
somewhat higher than usual during
the first part, and q trifle below during
the latter part. The range of temper
ature was greater than during the
week previous, owing mainly to cooler
nights. The maximum over the entire
State ranged between 81 and 80, the
highest temperature, as usual, oc
Cured in the interior; /; the minims
ranged between SO and 78, having beer
coolest at night in the interior.
The highest temperature reported
was OS on the 24th at Cheraw and Nc
| Coll; the lowest 58 on the 28th at Bates
burg. The moan temperature of the
week for the State was about 81, ant
the normal for the same period wa
approximately 81.
The controlling factor on crop condi
tions was rain or the lack of it. Their,

COINS. The Philadelphia mint has a
wonderful collection Of coins. Among
other curiositics it includes hat is
believed to be the oldest piece of metal
money ever made, which was mintcd
in Egnia about 700 years B. g.
Dates on coins were unknown up to
400 years ago. The very early coins
bore designs only on one lace.
OF all coins that ever existed, the
smallest in value was the mite, :"
such as tho widow in the Bible dropped
through the s'Ot Of the poor-box. The
most valuable coin in the collection
described, is II Chinese piece worth

Twice day their temperature IS
taken. and frequently their pulse also.
They are taken out daily for exercise,
and they are weighed once a week.
Their general health is watched over
with the greatest care by trained
veterinarians
The horses selected must be perfect
~ healthy, but may have slight de-
formities and blemishes. which, al
though detracting from their value for
other purposes. do not in any way in
jure the purity of their blood or di-
minish their ability to furnish anti
toxin. Having selected then a num-
Der of horses, we begin by injecting
small amount, say one-half of q cubic
centimeter item drops, of the toxin.
which, when injected to the amount of
oDe-tenth Of cubic centimeter, is suffi-
Gent TO kill half-grown guinea pig
in thirty-six to forty-eight hours.
From day to day the horses are OBJ
served. as soon as the temperature has
fallen to the normal and the local
swelling has subsidized, slightly larger
dose of the toxin is injected. Thus
crease in size, and frequency until, in
the course of three to five months. we
are enabled to inject the less sensitive
horses with thousands times the orig
inal dose, without its producing any
local or constitutional symptoms.
When we can introduce from two hun
dred TO three hundred cubic cent?
meters OF strong toxin into the horse
without producing serious symptoms,
we can feel pretty certain that the
horses blood contains anti-toxin in
sufficient amount to be used Tor heal
ing purposes.
The horse is prepared for bleeding
by having the skin of the neck over
the jugular vein shaved. cleansed with
soap and water. and as thoroughly as
possible disinfected. To obtain the
blood we use small canula about one.
fourth of an inch in dia meter, having
a sharp pointed end. To the opposite
end Is attached a rubber tube of mod
crate size, about two feet in length.
At the end of this a small glass tube
six inches long is attached To receive
