THINKS WE LIVE TOO HIGH.
Boston Woman Says Luxury Is the
 Evil of the Age.

| boStOU woman oayS Luxury iS tn Evil of the Age.
 It is wages versus large ideas an,
 not the increased cost of provision
 that make the average householde
 find it difficult to make both end
 meet today, Mrs. Ellen H. Richards O Boston recently said fin a lecture upor
 the Cost of Living and How to Con trol It. at the Teachers college il New York. She told of man whose wife learned to talk about his salary instead of his wages. "When we had wages" she said, there was no diff ficulty in living within them, but with salary we spent everything"
 People spend more money than they used to-" said Mrs. Richards, land one reason is that we have more useful things, like the bathroom, and it is well to be sanitary. They say the cost of living within the past thirty years has increased 40 or 50 per cent, but l contend that it is not so. It is our idea of living that has increased.
 There has been great change in what we women think we need, in the price of hats and gloves and gowns. Our grandmothers-wom of con- fortable means-felt that they were do- ing well when they had three gowns, and a little farther back the men might have had one fine suit of clothes, but they did not think it was necessary to have one for the morning one for the afternoon and one for the evening.
 "If you divide your income so that food will cost one-fourth, rent anoth- CT and operating expenses one-fourth more, there will be left one-fourth for the region of choice.' There is noth- ing that makes one feel so poverty stricken as not to be able to do some thing that we really wish. With mon- ey for the region of choice, we get what we most wiSh-it may be books, travel or even handsome gowns-but something that we really desire. If a lamlly lives up to US entire income, there is nothing to draw upon in case of need, though I class physicians, medicines, dentists and travel for health as fines that we have to pay for neglect of natures laws.
 '"The average family having an in- come of $2,000 or 5000, unless there is an arrangement to save something for the future or something very much wanted, spends it all. The woman's largest expenses are usually sundries. Men have temptations to spend, but not as the women do, with the market, the bargain counter and the house for which to provide, though most houses have three times too much in them. Women are not always wise spend CTS"

The San Jose Scale in South Car.
olina.

The San Jose (San Hozay) scale
is the most pernicious insect pest Of
fruit and shade trees in South Caro-
lima. In some sections the owners Of
trees are cutting them down owing to
the presence Of this insect. The Di-
vision Of Entomology of the South
Carolina Experiment Station has re-
peatedly emphasized the fact in the
press that there is no necessity for
cutting down or other wise Destroy
ing tree merely because it is infest-
ed with San Jose scale unless the
tree is so far gone that It has not
enough vitality left to recover after
the scale is killed. Although one of
the worst insects Of America, it has
been demonstrated over and over
again that the pest can be success
fully and economically controlled.
Fruit growers all over the United
States who are troubled with this
pest are controlling it by the sprays
devised for that purpose. All citizens
Of South Carolina who have trees dy-
ing or who know that their trees are
infested with scale, or who have
trees in an unthrifty condition are
invited TO write TO the Division of
Entomology, South Carolina Expert
ment Station, Clemson College, S. c.
Information is cheerfully given and
no postage is required to insure
reply.

OF JACK RABBITS.
Texas Ranchmen Kill Them By the
Thousand.

It is getting near the season for
lack rabbit hunting in Midland coun-
", says a Midland correspondent OF
be St. Louis Globe-Demeroat. In a
ew more weeks one Of the big annual
punts will take place on some ranch
There the rabbits are particularly
lentiful. The hunt will last all day
md end with barbecue. There will
|be plenty Of fresh meat for the dogs,
the coyotes and the buzzards when
the hunters get through.
TenderJhearted visitors from the
east might be inclined to think that a
hunt in which all the way from 500
to 1000 jack rabbits are killed is
cruel. They are not familiar with
jack rabbits.
The jack rabbit is a peculiar pro-
duct Of the plain. He does not live
where fields are closely cultivated,
nor does he linger around long after
the mesquite is grubbcd, and the rich
sod turned over with a breaking plow.
A wild and care-free life for the jack
rabbit. who also likes a little spice
that comes from invading ranch
,|man's s garden and orchard. The jack
rabbit eats only things that are of
more value when fed to something
else. Therefore. the jack rabbit is a
pest. And as a pest the ranchmen and
.,+e'crS Join hands in getting rid of
hin.

DO Not Rush Cotton on the Market.

Do Not Rush Cotton on the Market.
The Farmers Union urges her
members and farmers generally not to
rush their cotton on the market at
the present prices, which are below
the cost Of production. Every bale OF
cotton being sold is taken from the
producer at $40 per bale less than its
real value. Who is the bear on the
market? Is it not the producer? II
you would refuse to take the price
offered the spectators will have to
give your price. Can you do better9
Certainly you can. The Farmers Un-
ion has been Offered all the money
necessary if we vii! only pr. our
cotton in bonded warehouses. The
Union has a number Of warehouses,
and the Standard Warehouse COM
pany is also in position to store COT
ton and issue receipts. The latter
company can store 10000 bales and
issue receipts which will be negoti-
able at any bank. Arrangements have
been made for carrying your cotton
for you if you will but cooperate. II
further information regarding this IS
desired address the undersigned at
Pendleton, S. C. I would advise any
one putting their cotton in ware
houses to arrange for money for SIX
months at least.
Is it good judgment to warehouse
cotton? I will answer yes, it IS al
ways good judgment to warehouse
any product when it sells below pro-
duction, and conditions will certainly
warrant it now.
AS to the condition Of the present
cotton crop, the weather over a large
portion of the belt is bad, and so are
prospects. Heavy rains are reported
over Texas, Oklahoma and Florida,
and reports Of deterioration from the
cotton belt still come in from every
State, and the world realizes now
hat the crop is short. 1t Will not
more than duplicate our last crop.
There will be no top crop this year,
and cotton is opening prematurely. l
want to urge our farmers to ware
house their cotton and get money on
it to settle their Indebtedness and
market the crop as the world needs
it. By so doing you can get your
price.
It will pay the farmers to remem-
Der that corn is now selling at $l.lo
per bushel, bacon from IL cents to II
cents per pound, ham 18 cents to ~
cents per pound. Real, real farmers
are purchasers Of the above articles
Now, brother, don't grumble when
the specular to offers you 8.75. and y
cents for your cotton. He knows
that you have to pay for the above
articles you have bought to make this
cotton, and you. now have to meet
your obligations. Now, be fair and
don't blame him when he offers you
the present price. Remember that
buying bacon, corn, flour. molasses,
hay, guano, mules and horses is the
cause. I want you to remember that
there is no country where the above
articles can be raised cheaper than
here in South Carolina. The remedy
B for 8.75 and 9 cents cotton is diver
sification of crops. So let me sug-
gest that you write '*diversify crops
this year, and tack it up in the most
conspicuous place about your house,
so that you can be reminded of it eV-
cry day, and then do it, and you can
name your price for your cotton and
secure it for your whole crop. So
! diversity.
