Soft Irvine, such as used for sewing
sacks, seems to be the best material for
tying bundles as it holds them without
mutilating the straw
Each bundle should be carefully
labeled with the name of variety, when
planted, date harvested, locality, name
of grower on exhibition, yield (if deter
mined) and other particulars which
would be of interest.
All leaves and imperfect stems should
be removed as it makes the bundles of
clean straw very attractive and pays
where time can be taken to do it. Some
exhibits may be just the heads with
enough straw to tie into bundles
All grains should be dried and stored
in dry place and should be kept away
from the light as much as possible. To
protect from dust and abrasion when
packed or stored the tops of bundles
should be wrapped tightly in muslin
which may be fastened by a few stitches
with sack needle and Irvine
la drying grain place in a shady place
where there is as much breeze as posi-
bic. Then collect and tie into bundles
aud keep as directed above.
Threshed grain can be exhibited in
different wars. A most convenient way
is for an exhibitor to show his grain in
bottles of the same shape and size.
Grasses may be collected and cured in
the same way as the grains, except that
more care must be taken in drying so as
to prevent heating and molding.
Specimens of grasses or grains,
whether native or cultivated. must have
the following characters if they are to
attract attention:
l. They must be ample, otherwise
they either escape notice or they are
criticised as Insignificant
2. They must be neat in form, must
make harmonious unit in the general
scheme of the exhibit.
3 The form of the specimen must be
such as to bring out the various charac-
ters which constitute its value
A. They must retain their natural
chars cters, such as color, form and fiex
Utility, in so far as possible
In selecting specimens, look for unity
in color. condition, ripeness, size and
general appearance. Bundles should
not be less than 3 inches in diameter,
nor more than 8. Several specimen
bundles should be prepared and the best
one exhibited
In regard TO vegetables, will say that
any late varieties should be planted
inside or in hot beds as soon as possible
and transplated later. This is to insure
maturity by the time of the fair.
Any fruits that are to be exhibited
should be given special care SO as to
obtain as good specimens as possible.
Other exhibits that have to be made
by hand or the like should be CON-
menced as soon as time will permit so
as to give amble time for completion.
All stockmen who expect to exhibit
should now begin TO keep his eye on his
stock so as to give the good ones bet
ter chance and have them In the right
for exhibition by the time of
the fair.

WOMAN GETS HARDEST PENALTY.

Evelyn Thaw has had the woman's
luck. One of the men is dead and
the other in a madhouse, but the
woman lives to suffer more than the
torture of mind of the one living,
and to long in vain for the rest of
the one dead. The best that a bad
woman can get is always worse than
the worst that a bad man gets.-St.
Louis Globe Democrat.

The City Cousin.

He's my own cousin, Mamma says;
but my! he's awful green!
Because he's always lived in town and
80 he hasn't seen
So very many things. He said he
never MIXED COW.
And all the grass he ever saw was in
yard till now!
He never gather roasting ears, and it's
the first time he
Threw up stick to knock down nuts
and ate 'em of the tree!
And he don't know where honey grows
and never learned to swim!
My! would hate to be that old and
not know more than him!
When he is home there amt creek
and 80 he never goes
A-fshing, and he hasn't got suit Of
real old clothes,
The kind you have to have to fish;
he says he can't 60
Barefoot with Us because the grass and
weeds would hurt his toe!
He won't chew slippery ELAN bark or
/. beeswax; he's afraid. -. -
Of it because he told US that he don't
know how it's made;
And he won't dig up angle worms be-
cause they wiggle so;
never saw the place heliyes, but my!
it, must be slow!
He don't know what spring-board is,
and hasn'b'got a bat
That you can dip drink up with-he
never heard of that!
And if it's raining in the woods he
hurries up to get
Back home because he's so afraid he'll
get his straw hat wet.
One day,we killed garter snake
they don't have them in town
And he don't know the tail won't die
until the sun goes down!
And be is sorry that he never came
down here the more
He thinks of all the things he's earned
Il. be didn't know before!
Still, suppose he has to live some
Where, but it must be
An awful thing to live so long and
never climb tree.
Or plug watermelon when you think
it's ripe, or wear
The kind of clothes that you can rip
and do not need to care;
Or drive into the creek Or sit upon the
bank and get
Your back all freckled up and burned
until you feel it yet
When it is time to go to bed! He
never learned to swim!
Ny! I would hate to be that old and
not know more than him!

University Notes.

Special to The Dispatch:
Columbia, Dec. 7.-There are en-
rolled, this year, at the University OF
South Carolina, 320 students. OF this
number eight are from other states,
40 new students and seven from Lex
ington county.
Except for the class games that are
to be played now soon, the football
season closed on Thanksgiving day
with a game between Carolina and
the Citadel. The next to open will
be the baseball season. In the mean
while the students will be kept busy
in basketball, tennis and track work.
The two college publications-"The
Carolinian" and the "Game Cock"-
are in fourishing condition.
The Game Cock is published weekly
by the two societies and contains all
the campus news. The Carolinian,
published once a month, is filled with
poems, essays, short stories and the
like. This magazine is gotten out by
the student-body and is always read
with interest by each student.
There has been added to the Uni
versity course Of lectures, given ev-
cry Thursday by one of the professors.
This is, indeed, quite an improvement
and besides being enjoyed by all who
attend, is very instructive and benef-
cial.
There are, also, new ,courses being
offered in engineering and a special
course in road construction.
The two societies-the Clariosophie
and the Euphradian-are in excellent
condition. Each has enrolled several
new members and is doing some splen.
did work. .
Perhaps the most beneficial thing
on the campus is the new lecture
room building, finished last year.
This building has twelve large lee
ture-rooms, and is well heated and
lighted: There is, in course of erec-
ton, new building for sciences, BIZ
ology, geology, chemistry and phys
les.
The greatest need for the university
at present is that Of new dormltories
and new gymnasium. The dormito-
ries are crowded this year, most Of
the rooms hsving three in them.
The University, as whole, is &C
complishing splendid results and with
the completion of the new science
building, new dormitories and new
gymnasium, will compare with any in
the South. J. F. Wingard, '12.

Washington, Mar. 22.-As the buffalo

save the Indian race from extinction

To Remove Cause Of Disease.
Alarmed at the excessive mortality
among the Indians from tuberculosis
ways and means of effectually combat.
ing the disease among them have been
devised. There will be concerted
effort on the part of all connected with
the Indian service for the removal OF
the causes of the disease for educa.

disease Backed with adequate funds
and with a corpse of fighting medical

Live in Unsanitary Surroundings.
Almost beyond belief are the wide.
spread ravages from tuberculosis
among the Indians. Just about 20
years ago when the white man under.
took to civilize the Indian tuberculosis
was unknown among that race. Today
the Indians are dying off at the rate
of 900 per annum. OF all the tribes
none seem to be so susceptible to the
onslaughts of tuberculosis as the Sioux
Indians in South Dakota. Only last
year nearly 1000 members of this tribe
we're afflicted with the disease. To a
change from primeval surroundings
when the Indian roamed at will
through the wilds of the forests to his
present mode of living more than to
any other cause, may be ascribed the
reason which he so easily is victim
