taking aboard of her cargo and was an
chored in the deeper water at the mout h
of the creek, to take a few more ties on
deck, when the freeze came and held her.
1t was thought that she was safe. but

Classification of Prints.

"How are the finger-prints classified"
"Originally they were divided into nine
different classes, but it is now generally
recognized that there are but three main
types and several varieties of each type,
with an occasional combination of two
types, or nondescript form. Hence. we
have divided all Impressions into four
classes, known arches, loops.
whorls and composites. The arch is the
simplest. in which the lines on thel
finger run parallel in the form of an arch,
with the apex toward the top of the
finger. The loop. which is the most COM
mon variety, has a hairpin shape, with
the lower point slightly curving upward.
The whorls are irregular double loops,
and circular lines spirals. The relative
frequency of the various patterns is in
round numbers. loops 90 per cent. arches
) per cent, whorls, accidents and COM
posites 30 per cent. The fingers on the
same hand always differ. The greatest
variety of patterns is found on the fore
finger: the least variation on the little
finger; whorls are most frequent on the
thumb and ring finger. loops on the mid
die fingers and arches on the forefnger."

improvements at Chicora College.

The interior of the dormitory, the
parlors, halls and recitation rooms of
Chcora College are undergoing much
Improvement. A number of carpenters
have been at work on the different
rooms for several days and the building
will present quite an attractive appear
ance on the interior when the work is
completed.
The floor of the entrance hall has
been raised on level with the parlor
doors, the back hall separated from the
front and the walls beautifully calci-
mined. Last summer large addition
was made to part of the building and
this additional room was soon taken up.
This summer the prospects are much
brighter for larger attendance than
last year. Applications from new pu-
pills are being received daily and the
number of applicants at present cx-
needs anything in the past at the same
date. Last year the college had an at
tendance of two hundred and eight but
the number for the coming session will
exceed this by far.
The trustees recently purchased that
piece of property facing Pcndlcton
street. Heretofore the college has
been cramped for room but this lot will
give them ample space.

The Ten Commandments,

At an early period it was found nee
essary TO evolve from the mass of ethi-
cal teaching a few general rules for
living called ''The Ten Command
mcnts," by which a man could be moral
without going through course in the
ology. Just so in order to instruct the
average farmer how to successfully
conduct his farm operations so as to
secure a greater net gain from the
farm it is necessary to first deduce
from the mass of agricultural teach
ings few general rules of procedure
They are called "The Ten Command
ments of Agriculture, by the practice
of which man may be good farmer
in any State without being a graduate
from a college of agriculture.
TIE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF AGRICUL-
TURE.
Q) Prepare a deep and thoroughly
pulverized seed bed, well drained; break
in the fall to the depth of 8, 10 or IL
inches, according to the soil, with i'm
plcments that will not bring the subsoil
to the surface; (the foregoing depths
should be reached gradually)
(2) Use seed Of the best variety, in
te'igcntly selected and carefully stored
(3) In cultivated crops give the rows
and the plants in the rows a space
suited to the plant, the soil and the eli
mate.
(D Use intensive tillage during the
growing period of the crops.
(5) Secure high content of humus
in the soil by the use of legumes, barn
yard manure, farm refuse and CONNER
cal fertilizers.
(6) Carry out systematic crop rota-
tlon with winter cover crop on south
crn farms.
(O Accomplish more work in day
by using more horse power and better
implements.
(8) Increase the farm stock to the
extent of utilizing all the waste pro-
ducts and Idle lands of the farm.
Coy Produce all the food required for
the men and animals on the farm.
QO) Keep an account of each farm
product in order to know from which
she gain or loss arises.

Rabbits in Australia.

In 1852 two rabbits were imported
into Australia from England. These
arrivals in that continent now number
billions and are great pest. Five rab-
bits eat as much grass as one sheep.
From 1878 to 1883 the Australian gov
e>snment paid out $5,888, OILS as bounty
for the noxious animals at the rate of
25 cents each, and from 1883 to 1886
$4,000, 600 for the same purpose. For
some years the rabbits died by millions
owing to the drought, but since 1904,
with the rainy seasons increasing, they
have again come into notice and bid
fair to become as great pests as in the
past.
A Laurens county housekeeper has
has sent the following excellent recipes
which appear in the Farmers Union
Sun:
TOMATOES, CORN AND OKRA CANNED
TOGETHER.
Gather all your vegetables in the
morning and can the same day; they
keep better when fresh. Scald, peel
and cut all hard places from the toma-
toes, then measure four quarts; add to
these tablespoon salt, but no water.
Cook for half an hour. Cut corn from
the cob, measure two quarts, add to
this one pint boiling water and salt to
taste. Cook for one hour Use only
tender oltra; cut in small pieces, meas
urc two quarts, add to this one pint
boiling water and salt to taste. Cook
for half hour or just barely done, then
put all together, tomatoes, corn and
okra, and cook for 20 minutes. Use
quart jars and have them ready, tops,
rubbers and cans in hot water; fill the
cans brimming full and run a knife to
the bottom to let out all air bubbles.
Screw tops very tight and set the cans
upside down to see if they leak. If
any should leak they will not keep.
When entirely cold wrap old newspa-
pcrs around each jar and put away in
dark place. / seldom lose a jar when
directions are carefully followed.
TO CAN BEANS.
Gather fresh in the morning, string
and break in short lengths. Measure
one gallon and put into enough boiling
water to cover them well; boil fast for
one hour, then add to this level table
spoonful salycilic acid (the powder, not
liquid. Cook 20 minutes longer. Then
proceed with hot cans as in above recipe.
TOMATO CHUTNEY
TO four quarts peeled tomatoes add
tablespoon level full of salt, one pint
vinegar, one-half teacup sugar, three
pods red pepper cut in small bits, and
six good size onions sliced. Add mixed
spices to taste and cook for 80 minutes.
Can as above directed.
