Horse Killed by Electric Wire.

A horse belonging to Mr. Alex.
Ivester, Of the Anderson Cotton
Mile, was killed in peculiar man
ner yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Ives
ter's fifteen-year-o old son, Lee, was
riding the horse, and in some way
the animal came in contact with a
guy wire on an electric light pole
near the cotton mill. The pole, it
seems, had become somewhat sagged
by the wet weather, and the guy
wire was brought very near to the
current wire, though not touching it,
ana, on account of the wet weather,
current of some 600 volts was pass
ing down the guy wire into the
ground. This current is of sufficient
force to kill horse, but will not
hurt a man. Naturally when the
horse rubbed against the wire in
passing, the animal was thrown to
the ground and killed. An clectri-
clan says that if the horse could have
been moved Immediately after being
thrown to the ground it would have
recovered from the shock, but as it
was not moved it was killed. The
boy riding tho horse was slightly
bruised on the leg by the animal
falling on him, but was not otherwise
injured.-Anderson Mail, August 28.

In the lower part of Colleton
county farmers feed horses and mules
on sweet potatoes, and find the
ration as healthy as corn or oats, in
addition to being cheap. The pota-
toes are not fed until mature-after
frost has fallen and they are dug and
housed. They are washed and
sliced or chopped up. At first only
small quantity is given, sprinkled
with salt. The amount is gradually
increased, until they are allowed all
they want. Some combine rice flour
or cotton seed meal with the pota-
toes.

About Clemson College.

Col. L. Larry CAN'T, writing in
recent issue of the Spartanburg
Herald, says:
| see that this year the special tax
on commercial fertilizers amounts to
over $4,000, which money has been
unrighteously taken from farmers
the hardest worked and most indus
trlous class of our population and
given to the support of an eduoa-
tional institution to which not one
farmer in several hundred is able to
send his son. Clemson College has
more money than it knows what to
do with. They are overstocked with
professors, and in order to spend
this surplus cash are every year
erecting needless buildings and in
curing unnecessary expenses. I
have always opposed this fertilizer
tax, for it is special tax levied upon
our farmers, which is as unjust as
unlawful. But if farmers are forced
to pay this money, why not give it
to the maintenance of our country
schools, where the poorer class of
children can reap it's benefits, and
not dump it into the oyerfowing
Golfers of college that only the sons
of few well-to- do men are able To
attend. $4,000 is an enormous
sum, in single special tax, to col
lect from one class of our people a
year. No such special tax as this is
levied on articles used principally by
the rich, for the maintenance of the
South Carolina College and Citadel
Academy. Then where is the Justice
and reason in taxing our farmers to
maintain so called farmers college?

unexposed States was worth almost
its weight in silver, and farmers
were compelled to provide them
selves with corn grown in 1915 for
the seed they used in the spring of
1917. This seed never cost so much,
being difficult to get even at IS per
bushel.
The last month of summer was
ushered in bright and warm, and for
two weeks the now almost frozen
people began to thaw out. It was
the mildest weather of the year, and
just as the inhabitants got fairly to
appreciate it old Boreas and Jack
Frost came along and whitened and
hardened everything in their path.
On the 10th, ice formed quarter of
an inch thick and winter clothing,
that had been laid away for few
days, was again brought forth and
wrapped around shivering humanity.
BY this time the people had given
up all hope of again seeing the
flowers bloom or hearing the birds
sing, and began to prepare for hard
winter.
October kept up the reputation of
it's predecessors, as there was scarcely
a day that the thermometer regis
tered higher than 80 degrees. No
vember was also extremely cold, and
sleighing was good the first week of
the month /; but strange to relate,
December was the mildest and most
comfortable month of the entire year,
condition which led many people
to believe that tho seasons had
changed about. :
Of course, the cold spell sent
breadstuffs to an un-heard-of price,
and it was impossible to obtain. for
table use many of the common vege-
tables, as they were required for
seed. Flour sold in 1917 in the
cities for SIS per barrel, and the
average price of wheat in England
was 81 shillings per quarter.
