of Clemson on their investigation Of
the complaints made against the col
lege and it's management is printed In
full elsewhere. More than one charge
is admitted to be true, but explana-
tions are given which are likely to
prove satisfactory. One of the most
serious criticisms made Of the man
agement of the institution seems TO
have been overlooked. We refer to the
condition Of the farm as represented
by farmers who attended the state in
stitute. Some of them stated that the
farm is anything but a model one
that, for instance, the lands have not
been properly terraced and are wash
ing into gullies in consequence. This,
as we'll as all other matters brought
to the attention of the college author
tiles, will no doubt be carefully looked
after in the future.

cent agitation of matters pertaining TO
sanitation of the watershed from which
the town draws its supply of drinking
water, the authorities are now pub
fishing In handy form the laws bearing
upon the subject. AS soon as they are
ready, which, it is hoped, will be in the
next few days, Mr.. Louis Kerr, the
sanitary policeman, will be charged
with the duty Of placing a copy in the
hands of every family living on the
watershed of Long Creek from the in

headwaters Of the stream. This step
