Take Money Says Martin.

Columbia, May 10.-Supt. O. B.
Martin has written an open letter on
the refusal of the Willis school in
Marlboro county to receive dispensarv
profits. He holds that money can be
returned to the state. He writes the
authorities: Referring to your re-
cent request to be advised on differ
ent points as to the refusal Of the
trustees Of Willis school district to ac-
cept dispensary school funds, it seems
to me that those requests were rath-
er previous. I did not know at first
that these trustees had spent all of
their three mill tax, poll tax, local
tax and dispensary funds and made
an overdraft of $23 before they re-
fused to accept the said dispensary
funds. In view of the fact that they
had an overdraft, which is contrary
to law, and in view of the fact also
that l think such collections are al
ways in order, I thoroughly approve
OF the action Of the trustees in taking
up collection. I think that money
can very well be received under sec
ton l178, code Of laws, of South Car
olina, 1902, which provides for q
"Grant, devise, gift or bequeath. It
looks rather silly to have had such
commotion over hypothetical case,
but [ hope the dispensary authorities
will soon make such handsome ap-
preparation as will give us a real case.

go. b. Martin.

Case of Sad Disappointment.

The phone in the office of down
town establishment devoted to dry
goods and various articles of feminine
apparel rang sharply and the head
bookkeeper responded. The voice Inc
heard was a feminine voice. It was
somewhat indignant and it began
conversation without preliminaries.
"Those bones you sent up are alto
gether too large,' said the voice. II
told you [ wanted small bones. This
is my little dogs birthday, and I
wanted to give her some nice, duint,
little bones as special treat. And
here you have sent up some great
enormous things, only fit for a St.
Bernard. My poor Flossie, with her
dainty little teeth, never enid man
age them in the world, and size and I
are both awfully disappointed"
81 beg your pardon, madam,' said
the bookkeeper in astonishmenl, "but
I am afraid you have runy up the
wrong place. This is not market,
and the only bones we ever se:.d out
are the kind that come in corsrrs. -

Occupying the position of the first
nation Of the world as a producing
people, we are almost parsimonious
i'll the appropriations which go to
build up farming interests.
With farming interests more ex-
tensive than those Of benighted Rus
sia, we spend less than one-third the
amount expended by that country for
agricultural purposes. A compara-
tive statement of the amounts spent
by the leading powers shows this gov
ernmcnt up in very bad light. Russia
spends $25,000,000 annually; France,
$0,OO0,000; Austria, $9,275. 900; Hun
gary, $9,400,000; while the United
States, with its vast area and diversi-
fled farming, calling for The most sci
cntific methods, spends less than ST.
100000. Such has been the yield of
our virgin soil, no matter how I'M
scientific our methods, that the gov
ernment for many years overlooked
the necessity Of establishing an ag-
ricultural department worthy Of the
name.
From the formation of the govern
ment the demands of agriculture have
been forced, inch by inch, upon the
unwilling ears Of congress. There
was not even an agricultural bureau
until 1889; and after that time, even
to the year 1889, owing to inadequate
appropriations, it was little more than
bureau. In 1880 the real life of the
agricultural department began, and
with it began new era in American
farming.
1t is q mistake to consider the agri-
cultural appropriation a gift to the
farmers. It is, in fact, but loan,
for which the nation is indirectly re-
imbursed a hundrcdfold. 5&

Long Hair and INSANITY.

Attention was called to physical
manifestations Of insanity by Profess
sor A. r. Loren, Of the University OF
Berlin, in clinic before the students
Of Jefferson Medical College.
"Insanity," he said, "the careful
student Of physical manifestations
will often notice, is productive Of a
luxuriant growth Of hair. In some
cases Of the female insane this growth
is so abundant that a mustache and
beard develop. Another peculiarity
sometimes noted is an abnormal
growth Of the ears; very often they
stand out almost at right angles from
the head. The eyes take on an un-
usual glitter.
"We cannot account for these Pc
culiarities," continued the professor,
."bnt they are 80 apparent that + do
not believe any student Of insanity
can afford to neglect them.''
DR.. Loren is one Of the greatest spe-
cialists in the study Of insanity in the
world. He is on a tour Of America
and obligingly accepted the invitation
extended by jefferson college to stop
over long enough to lecture before
the students Philadelphia Record. z

Dairying is growing industry. The

Dalrying is growing industry. The
proceeds from this source during the
year 1905, were, in round numbers,
$3.50, 100000, and the demand far ex-
ceeds the supply. With the possible
exception Of the corn crop, no single
farm product reaches this stupendous
amount. The south could easily add
at least 80 per cent to this amount
without the loss Of single dollar
from it's present sources of revenue.
The government could not spend mon
ey to better advantage than in en-
'couraging this industry there, and in
instructing the people in its proper
management.
For agricultural purposes I favor
the most liberal appropriations. The
products of the soil, and that which
goes with the ordinary farm, consti-
tute the basis Of our wealth; all else
is but so much margin on the crude
products. What blood is, coursing
through the veins and arteries of the
human system, that the farm pro-
duct is distributed through the great
railroad lines Of this country. Each
carrier in its composition the life-sus-
tanning essence.
The various farm products Of the
United States last year aggregated the
stupendous sum Of $G,415 100000,
and each year brings an increase of
over $250,000,00O. Literally we feed
and clothe the world, furnishing, us
we do, more than 80 per cent. of the
grain, still larger per cent OF the
meat, and fully so per cent of the cot
ton Of the world. In the past six
years the farmers have secured q bal
ance of trade amounting to $685.
100000.
The government is year by year
"lcngthening it's cords and strength
ening it's sta kes." Is it not the part
of wisdom to lend every encourage
ment to that which constitutes the
basis Of its strength, if not its very
life7 Surely. "there is q giving that
enrichcth and a withholding that i'm
poverishcth. -
Although agriculture stands incom-
comparably first in the production of
wealth, it occupies the lowest place in
the scale of appropriations. A state
ment prepared by Senator Allison,
covering the average annual appropri-
ations as we'll as the aggregate appro-
priations for various purposes for the
past six years, will doubtless prove of
interest, and hence give it here:
