an ideal place for our purpose and we can
obtain title upon the payment Of $9,0 900.
Now to establish this Institution upon q
permanent basis we must have two funds.
First, about $3.50 per month at present for
current expenses-this will enable us TO
care for fifty children. Second, we need
SO, 900 for the purchase money and besides
should have a steadily increasing perman.
ent fund for enlargement, as the needs OF
the institution arise. $1,000

the selection Of directors at large from all
sections Of the State, who will cooperate
with the local board In locating children

Rescue 0rphanage.

The Rescue Orphanage is an organiza-
ton, duly chartered by the State OF South
Carolina, and located at Columbia, S. c.,
which has for it's object the ~rescuring and
caring for and rearing Of children who are
not eligible for admission to the various
UNCONVENTIONAL O~rphangeS OF the State,
and the education OF them along three
lines, moral, physical and spiritual. to the
end that they may become useful citizens.
That there is q great need for such an in
stitution is evidenced by the fact that In
Columbia alone, there are known to. be
more than two score white children living
in immoral surroundings, some OF them III
the care Of negro women.
The Rescue Orphanage is controlled by q
Board of Directors, business and profess
SiOnal men of, various religious denomlna
lions and of no UNCONVENTIONAL affiliations,
but all with one purpose in view, viz; to
see that no white child in the State shall be
allowed to grow to maturity without an
opportunity to become a good citizen.
Up to the present the management has
been able to take only a fraction Of the ap-
~plicants twenty for lack OF means to de-
fray expenses; to accomplish the most
good at the least per capita cost, we should
be able to care for not less than fifty.
We have acompetent superintendent and
q teacher with wide experience in kinder
garten work, but like every one else con-
nected with the institution, they are max
ing sacrifices for it; their salaries being
barely enough for the most economical liv-
ing.
A band OF Columbia women have under
taken to clothe the children by soliciting
gifts of material from merchants and mills
and making them up into garments.
Such money as has been expended has
beer furnished by the directors and a few
outside friends.
We are occupying premises, upon which

bond: always true To principle, honor and
integrity; his whole life is al unanswera-
BILE argument to the faintcst whisper

ExTERMIRATING TICKS
BY VACATIkG PASTURES.
A Pasture May be Freed Of Ticks by
Keeping all Stock Off Of II from Sep
tember 10 July |.

The month OF August lends itself well to
the eradication of cattle fever ticks where
a pasture rotation plan is used. BY vacat-
ing a pasture during this month and keep
hight vacant until July l of next year 1t
may be freed of ticks, and il no tick-infest-
ed animals are allowed to enter after July
the pasture will remain free. The United
States Department Of Agriculture advises
farmers in the tick region to take advan-
tage of this favorable time 50 far as prac-
ticable.
Pastures from which live stock is remOv
ed fora sufficient time become free OF ticks
by q process of starvation, us the ticks can
not live to maturity If they are unable to
get upOn animals. The time required for
all ticks to die after the stock has been re-
moved from infested fields and pastures
varies considerably, depending on climate,
season, and weather conditions. EXpc-
rience has shown, however, that the period
from September l to July l is sufficient,
and this appears to he the most convenient
time.
The advantage of vacating a pasture for
the period named is twofOld. Not only Is
the pasture freed from ticks, but its disuse
during that time will probably cause less
inconvenience and expense than at any
other season. and it will be benefited by the
rest and will have a better growth OF grass
the following summer. In come sections
where pastures are utilized throughout
the winter. to vacate would probably neces-
state feeding the stock, unless the farmer
is situated so that he can keep his stock on
one pasture while another pasture is kept
vacant. But it is also true that beginning
with September there will be a more alum
dant supply Of rough feed about a farm
which can be utilized. August is a most
favorable month for making a start TOWARD
freeing premises OF ticks by the method
suggested. ,
The animals should of course be free OF
ticks when they are again turned on the
pasture in July. Where the owner has ii
small number of cattle, greasing or spray
ing them with Beaumont crude petroleum
is q good way to rid them of ticks. When
the number Of cattle is large or When Il
dipping vat is convenient it may be more
practicable to dip them.
Full information as to how to get rid of
the ticks. including directions for the prep
aration Of dips and sprays. may be obtain
ed free upon application to the Bureau OF
Animal Industry, Department Of Agricul-
ture, Washington, D.. c.
