terday and takes up some five col
umns. It makes interesting read
ing as to Clemson especially. 1t con-
taius a hot letter from DR.. Nell, a
former president. The Herald and
News will print the report in full
in the next issue as it is probable
that Clemson will be in the lime
light for some time. It is unfortu-
nate that an institution with the
possibilities Of Clemson should not
be able to go on smoothly with the
work before it.
DR.. Nell says, among other things,
that the board Of trustees met too
often. There has been general
feeling among the friends Of the in
stitution that there was too much
trustees interference in the details
Of the management Of the college,
He enumerates the frequency Of
board meetings. Then the board ap-
points special committees who have
minute details Of management to
look after. These matters should be
under the management Of the presi-
dent, and until they are it will be
difficult to get a man who can sue
cessfully run the college. For
while the board even undertook to
take part in the discipline Of the
college. DR.. Nell goes on to show
how the board undertook the man
agement of all details pertaining to
the running Of the college.
DR.. Nell calls attention to nepot-
ism which he says is a serious draw
back to the college. On this subject
he says:
"R. W. Simpson Three sons-in-
law on the faculty.
"W. W. Bradley-A brother on
the faculty.
| 81. E. Wannamaker-A brother
in-law on the faculty; nephew on
the station staff; a niece in the
Office Of the president; a relative in
the treasurer's office.
"W. D. Evans-A son in the treas
urer's office; a son holding the posi-
tion of fertilizer Inspector.
"Alan Johnstone- nephew on
the faculty.
sFThree other members Of the col
lege force are supposed to be related
to trustees by marriage, but I am
not in possession Of accurate infor-
nation on this score. -
DR., Nell thinks the practice of
nepotism has caused much of the
troubles and disturbances at Clem-
son during the administration Of his
predecessors. Since the college was
opened the board have appointed
twenty-one of their relatives to i'm
portant positions in the college, and
there are eleven relatives now on
the force, says DR.. Nell. During the
past eight years Dr.. Nell says the
board have appointed two of their
members to good salaried places in
the college. >.. =

that her children should receive

EVE AS A METHODIST.
A Defense of the Woman in That
First Family Row.


We have always held that man is
too much given to placing the blame
for his troubles on Eve and her
daughters. Therefore, we take off
our hat to the Rev. M. M. Parkhurst
of Evanston, ILL.,, who is inclined to
give Adam the worst of it. He said
in a recent sermon that Adam sinned
with his eyes open, and that so far
as he has been able to learn the
father of the family never repented.
On the other hand, he pointed out
that Eve was self-deceived, and later
repented; that she would have been
taken into the Methodist church had
there been any such uplift institu-
ton at the time. Knowing the long
established Methodist prejudice
against low-necked gowns we incline
to the belief that Ewes wardrobe
would have been against placing her
on probation, but we honor the Rev.
Mr.. Parkhurst for giving her the
best of it in that first family row.
And IGNORING him thus it is with
regret that we conceal a brickbat in
this bouquet. The support of Ewes
daughters to the Methodist and other
churches has been of such import
ance that there is a hint that the
Rev. Mr.. Parkhurst knows where his
bread and butter and beef and straw
berry shortcake and fried chickens
come from, and we are forced to
wonder that Eve has had to wait for
a champion in the pulpit.-Atchinson

MAN GETS THE TARRED END
Must Divide Salary of So Week
With Wife, Who Has Income
of $500 q Month.

It's up to the man to pay his wife s
expenses, and he has got to do it..
That in terse language, sums up the
decision of Detroit court. The
man in the case is an ex-policeman
now running an elevator. His in
come is 81 a week. His wife owns
property from which she has an in
come of $500 a month. They had a
disagreement and separated. The
woman sued for support. The man
went into court and made the plea
that, inasmuch as the woman had
abundant means of her own, he
should be relieved from the burden
of supporting her. The court de-
cided that the wife's means had moth
ing to do with the case; that so long
as the man was her husband he must
support her to the extent of his abili-
ty. 1t was therefore ordered that
the mans 81 a week income should
be split in halves to piece out the
wife's SIS a week income Yet the
suffragettes are claiming that wo-
men get the tarred end of the stick

Asparagus Long Eaten.

Asparagus has been cultivated for
more than two thousand years from
wild varieties found in Natal, ST.
IBERIA and Persia. 1t is enough to
conclude with our friend, the potato.
The cultivated potato is a native of
the Chilean and Peruvian Andes, but
extends in original type as far north
as Colorado, where a wild form is oc-
casional. Wild varieties of the po-
tato exist in many parts all over the
world, but nowhere was it cultivated
before the discovery of the western
continent save in North and South
America

countries, and keeps spreading with
/ the spread of civilization.
From it's original home as ma
tive wild growth in western Asia and
adjacent Europe the cultivated pea
has been taken by man to all Guilt
waited countries. 1t has been Guilt
waited since way back yonder, for
dried peas have been found in Egyp-
tian tombs.
Tomato Recent.
The tomato, wholesome, tooth
some, capable for such a variety of
edible use as it is, was not found
out by man until comparatively re-
cent times. 1t is a native of western
South America, whence it was intro
duced and cultivated in Europe dur
ing the sixteenth century. At first
it's wrinkled fruits were regarded
with suspicion, and it was known to
be looked at as curiosity more than
anything else. Cultivation smoothed
out the wrinkles and developed the
tomato so that in the eighteenth CEN
fury both yellow and red varieties
were known. There are old people,
living today, who relate that in their
childhood the tomato was known as
the ''love apple" and was poisonous
if eaten too much of. In their years
tomatoes were grown because the
plant, the flower and fruit were pref
ty, the same reason as now induces
many in the country to grow the
deadly nightshade, which is a real
poison against which children are
warned.
The turnip is supposed to be a ma
tive of Asia and Europe. 1t has been
cultivated for centuries. The wild
Indian turnip found in Missouri is
said to be remotely kin to the edible
turnip. 1t is the size of a walnut,
and first tasted is sweetish, but in
moment the taster's tongue feels
as though it is pricked by a hundred
hot needles, and he feels like ex-
pectorating for hours afterward. II

One cannot conceive that the origi-
nal turnip was anything in taste like

THEY CAME FROM FAR AWAY
THE ORIGIN OF MANY OF THE
VEGETABLES NOW IN USE.
Home of the Bean in South America
and Beets Grew Wild in Asia,
As Did Cabbage.

As Did Cabbage.
AS a food and relish everyone
knows about the common, everyday
products of the garden. Few know
there is just as good mental relish
and food in looking into the history
and origin of any or all of them.
All our garden products have their
origin in some wild, native growth
that man sometime or other found
was good to eat, and could be made
more so by cultivation, and there is
a surprise when one comes to find
out which came first and then later
in these discoveries, says a writer
in the Kansas City Star.
This bean that we eat in some
form nearly every day, that almost
everybody likes, is comparatively
new as an edible. Our common,
everyday bean is a native of South
America, and was introduced into
Europe, whence it came to this coun-
try during the sixteenth century, and
tivated varieties. The big, broad
bean is the bean of history, and it's
origin is so remote that it is doubt
full. 1t is probably native of south
western Asia and northwestern
Europe. The broad, but not thick,
lima beans, called by some folks
butter BEANS" are a pole variety
that came from South America. Soy
beans, little pea-like beans with hairy
plants, are natives of China and ia
pan, and are as old a cultivated veg
etable as anything else in those long
time countries.
Beets were first found growing
wild in sandy soil near the sea in
Europe and western Asia. The villa
beet still found there is regarded by
authority as the original type. This
wild beet is slender-rooted and has
a taste so different from the beet we
know today that one must consider
the first man who tasted and con-
sidered it possible to develop had
gifts of hope and Imagination far be-
yond ordinary. The beet has been
cultivated since 100000 B. C.
Cabbage in Wild State.
Cabbage, in it's many varieties
has been developed from a single
wild growth called Brasica Olercea
which, in it's wild state, is very re-
mote in appearance from our cab
bage. Kale, cauliflower and collards
come from the same origin. The
principal cultivated varieties of all
these are known to have existed as
far back as the sixteenth century
Cabbage, however, is an infant COM
pared to lettuce, though why a man
would take to lettuce first when he
could have cabbage or both just as

food plant has a record of being eat
en- by Persian kings more than 1000
years ago. The onion has been sc
long in cultivation that it's original
form is not definitely known. In all
probability the onion is a native OF
western Asia, an adjacent part OF
Africa, since it is mentioned in old
Egyptian writings and the Penta-
touch. 1t has spread to all civilized

BIC FIGHT OVER
AHLO ESTATE

Castle & Wilmington have filed objec-
tons to final accounts of A. Hane-
berg, administrator or the estate Of
l. Ahlo, deceased, and exceptions to
the masters report of A. F. Clark
thereon. The grounds are largely
alike in both pleadings 1t is claim
ed that w. R. Castle, trustee, holds
a mortgage from the deceased for
the benefit of the S. N Castle Estate,
Ltd, and has brought a bill in equity
to establish such lien, also to have the
administrator account for certain as
sets upon which the lien is claimed,
also to set aside an alleged fore
closure by H. Hackfeld & Co., Ltd, in
which bill in equity the administrator
is alleged to have procured said fore
closure and the Kaneohe Rice Mill
Co., Ltd, to be incorporated to pur-
purchase the property in his interest,
and that no settlement should be
made until the determination of said
bill in equity.
It is commended that the admins
traitor ought to account for all the
rice and crops of rice grown on the
lands held by Ahlo in his lifetime
which have been taken off since his
decease, and account to the Castle
estate for any sums received from
