of this genus. They grow even well
on high dry pine land, but are not
adapted to wet soils. They form
beautiful specimen plants in a much
shorter period than even our common
Cabbage Palmetto. Stable manure or
Mr.. Painters special brands for this
class of plants induce them to grow
very vigorously. | can cOnscien-
tiously recommend these palms to all
lovers of beautiful and ornamental
plants Reasoner Bros. grow quite
collection of the different kinds and
they are cheap. They are easily trans
planted even in large state In this
case all the fibrous roots surrounding
the trunk at its base in dense, net-like
masses should be saved as much as
possible.
| can not vouch for the correctness
of the botanical names as given in
the foregoing. | have since years tried
to make a speciality of the botany of
the palms but found the literature on
the subject quite insufficient. DIR.
Udo Dammer of the Berlin Botanical
Garden, makes a speciality of the study
of the garden palms and he has re
quested me to send him flower spikes,
leaves, fruit and photographs of the
specimens, but usually | found it inn
possible to furnish the latter and the
preservation of the often very huge
flower spikes is very difficult. DR..
O. f. Cook, Tropical Agriculturist of
the United States Department of Agri-
culture, is also much interested in the
subject, having published already eX-
cellent descriptions of the palms OF
Porto Rico. Very likely he may in
time clear UP the chaos of names
that now exists, and to determine the
different kinds which adorn our gar
dens.

will act as an antidOte for the poison
of the most venOmOuS snake. That
was what he took when the Georgia
snake bit him and hundreds of people
in the South to whom this remedy has
been given report a successful trial
in snake bite.
A man who hunted great deal
in the mountains of North Georgia
always carried a pocket full of alum
and if one of his dogs was bitten by
Il rattlesnake he would pour alum
down the dogs throat, and the ami
NAL would go on in the hunt The
theory Of the action of the drug is
that as soon as the alum reaches
the stomach the bile gushes out of
the bile tubes into the intestines and
no doubt regurgitates into the stOm-
ac. which is irritated by the presence
of the alum.
This leads an Atlanta physician to
say that piece of alum the size Of
the finger. chewed and swallowed
seems to be a perfect cure for the
most poisonous snake bite.

A Florida Apple Orch ard.

There are quite q number. of the
friends of Mr.. A. "A. BOggs, of Co
cOanut Grove. who are aware that he
owns an apple orchard i'm North Caro-
lima. but few have an idea of its
great extent.
Mr.. BOggs' orchard is located i'm the
fine apple-grOwing section of Western
North Carolina and he goes there
every fall to superintend the shipping
and sale of his crop.
\ few days ago the third series OF
farmers institutes were held in
Raleigh, and i'm connection with them
a writer i'm the Wilmington Messenger
says:
Professor Hume, who was in
charge of one of the parties of insti-
tute conductors. visited a number of
A. BOggs, at Waynesville, which COW
ers 20 acres, and which is the larg-
est and finest bearing orchard i'm the
state, the trees being about 20 years
old and embracing % varieties. Mr..
BOggs sells his fruit i'm the south, in
carload lots, and is now getting from
So to $4 for it. His trees are in first
class condition. and are loaded with
fruit, in fact the limbs of many near
ly reaching the breaking point. His
crops will probably reach 5000 bar
rels. Professor Hume says that sec
ton and the Brushy Mountain section
of North Carolina have no superior
for apple-grOwing, and that after a
while this will he the most noted ap-
pie region in the country Miami

Cure for Snakebite.

Though we have heard of but few
people dying from snake bite since
we have been in this state, still they
do happen occasionally. 1t is well to
be prepared for all emergencies. The
NaldOsta Times prints an account of
We give it for what it is worth. 1t
certainly could do no harm to carry
some alum with you when going into
the woods, if it is not as effectuaI as
it is said to be, it will not do any
harm to have it and give it a trial,
while waiting for the doctor, though
as IA rule the doctors are helpless in a
case of snake bite.
The Times last week printed an
article detailing the suffering under
went by Mr.. Henry Fender, OF near
Adel, who was recently bitten by a
rattlesnake, and telling of the rem
edieS he employed. The articles
were reprinted in a number of state
papers and has served to bring to
light numerous remedies for snake
bites. One of the simplest and most
vOuched for is the alum treatment.
The Savannah Press states that
the drinking of a strong solution of
alum water is almost a sure cure
and Savannah physician has sent
the same paper a scrap book, in
which the alum theory is more thor
Oughly developed.
The story is told in this article that
something over thirty years ago a
rattleSnake crawled out from under
Il Georgia farm house and instead
of killing it, one of the party who
detected the reptile asked permission
to try an experiment. So he stepped
out, pulled off his boot and sock and
kicked the reptile in the mouth with
his naked foot. OF course the reptile
bit him Oh the foot. The man went
behind the house, swallowed something
and returning pulled off the other
boot and sock and made the snake
bite the other foot. Once more the
wounded man retired behind the
house, took something in his hand,
came back, killed the snake, put on
his boots and resumed his seat among
his astOnished friends. The crowd of
course begged him to tell them what
he took when he went around the
house. He said that when out on the
Rocky mountains, where there are a
great many rattlesnakes, people carry
alum i'll their pockets and as soon as
bitten they break off and swallow a
piece of alum the size of a nut 1t

PAY FINE
Four Plead Guilty to Con-
spiracy in Chicago Court.
HAND IN SUM or $4,000
Accepted Rebates from Railroads in
Violation of Law-One Almost a
Nervous Wreck from Mental
Suspense.

Four officials of the Schwarzchild &
Sulzberger Packing company of Chi
cago were fined an aggregate of $751;
900 by Judge Humphrey in the Unit
ed states district court at Chicago
Thursday. The fines followed a
plea of guilty to indictments charging
conspiracy to accept railroad rebates
The defendants were: Samuel E. Well
Of New York. vice president of the
company; B. S. Cussey, traffic man-
ager; Vance D. Skipworth and Charles
E. T0dc; assistant traffic managers.
Mr.. We'll was fined $4,000, the other
three $4,000 each =
With the entering of the plea, the
declaration was made that unless at
least one of the cases is Immediately
settled, the life Of Samuel We'll, who
is vice president Of the company, and
is one of the defendants, is in jeop-
ardy. He is said ITO be nervous
wreck, and fears were entertained for
his life if he had been allowed to: con-
tinue under the strain of trial
The plea was, entered, it is declar-
ed, after a complete understanding
had been reached between counsel
for the defendants and Attorney Gen
eral William H. Moody.
While in Chicago, the attorney gen.
eral was apprised of the condition of
Vice President We'll, and, it is said,
agreed to the entry Of plea of guilty,
with the understanding. that the jail
provision oe the law under which the
Indictment was returned should be
waived and merely a fine imposed. The
same concession was made in ths
case of the other three defendants.
The four defendants were charged
with unlawfully combining and agree.
ing to solicit rebates for the schwarzs-
child & Sulzberger company from rail-
road companies. Charges were mace
that the defendants conspired with
each other in presenting supposed
claims for damages, which were in re
atty claims for rebates.
During the sentence the court room
was absolutely still, and the defend.
ants were visibly affected. At the last
word of the court there was a general
stir, a. buzz of conversation, and 1t
was necessary for the court crier to
rap for order.
Meanwhile the check for the pay
ment Of the fines was quickly made
out and the four Schwarzchild & Sulz-
berger officials stepped out of the
court room free men.

MILLER's DATES CANCELLED.

Presence Of Negroes in His Company
Objected to by Southern Cities.
Several days ago when Polk Mil
Ter, the noted entertainer was pre-
pairing to leave his Virginia home for
Atlanta to appear for the benefit Of
the First Baptist Church, as the first
of a number of entertainments to be
given by him in Georgia and South
Carolina cities, he was notified that
on account of the requests of local
managers of cities where he was to
have appeared all his dates had been
cancelled. The reason given for the
cancellation was that the patrons Of
the Alkahest attractions did not wish
to go to see an attraction where ne
groes had part.
While in Atlanta Miller spoke with
deep feeling of this action of the Au-
reau. The principal part taken by the
negroes in his company is the quar-
tet. Mr.. Miller stated that he had
these negroes along in order to Illus
trate phases Of the life of the southern
darby, and that il had never occurred
to him that he would offend any one.

TILLMAN CALLED A LIAR.
Strenuous Political Meeting Pulled OF
At 5atesburg, South Carolina,
With Usual Trimmings.

At Batesburg, Lexington county, S.
c., Saturday, was held the most ex-
citing political meeting in the Palmet-
to State since the stirring days of
1929.
Senator B. R. Tillman and Colonel
John B. Towill, member of the state
board of dispensary directors. FLASHED
in debate and for several minutes the
scene in the opera house, which was
filed to overlooking, was one of in
describable confusion.
According to the published adver-
tisement for bids for liquor" said SEN
ator Tillman. mo bids for less than
s1.5O for X will be considered"
Advancing from his seat in the aud.
fence, Colonel Towill, in voice filled
with excitement and emotion, said:
Senator Tillman, that is false; you
know that is not so"
Great applause followed this state
ment, mingled with shouts for Till
man and Towill.
During the cheering and confusion
Tlllman turned to those seated on the
platform and said: Where is the
mayor? Where is the mayor?" Quick
ly facing the audience, which was
upon it's feet and apparently struggling
toward the stage, he stood as if a
marble statue. Cries of "sit down;
be quiet, go back to your Seats" were
uSered by those on the platform and
some of the auditors.
Hardly had quiet been restored
when the aged Rev. Mr.. D. M. Padgett
of 1Saluda arose and Intercepted Till
man as to his attacks upoa the
preachers, which resulted in another
stormy scene, and the noise made II
impossible to record the warm colo
guy, which ensued.
Senator Tillman bitterly assailed
the newspapers naming the News and
Courier, but The State in particular,
for their attacks upon him.
"That hell-hound in Columbia, who
is editor of The State, has told enough
lies on me to build a railroad of cross
ties to hell" declared Tillman, in one
OF his heated moments. Tillman paid
his respects to former Senator John
L. McLaurin, saying that he consid-
cred it am insult to be invited to
speak with him.
