The Mileage Bill.

No legislation as TO mileage books
may be expected at this session OF
the general assembly, the house hav-
ing disposed of the matter finally
for this year by adopting, Thursday
afternoon, motion of Mr.. Rembert
of Richland, to continue the senate
bill, requiring the pulling of mileage
by train conductors, until February
/, 1912. This ought to be the last
of this bill. 1nasmuch as the rail
roads sell these mileage books at d
greatly reduced price they should be
allowed to prescribe rules that will
simplify and cheaper their handling
by the conductors.

tLeaEes Money to Churches.

2s.2 The will of Mr.. John Keitt Wan
5namaker, whose death was reported
In The Times and Democrat a few
days ago.. was probated Wednesday
at St. Matthews. His large and val
liable real. estate holdings were we'll
known, but his cash values In diff
ferent banks was great surprise
to the general public and leaves his
fortune at considerably bisser fig-
ure than was anticipated. His only
son, Of course, WILL get the bulk of
his property. Besides minor be-
quests, the Methodist church Of ST..
Matthews gets $4,000 and the Bap-
.tist church $1,000. He talked his
business to no one and made no pre-
tentions to wealth during life, ex-
.cept the indulgence in fine horses
and mules, which was his hobby.

brief department recently established

Want to Vote in Liquor.

The members of the legislature
from Barnwell county made an effort
to have a bill passed by that body
to permit the holding in Barnwell
county of an election on the question
whether dispenssries shall be rees-
tablIshed there, without waiting un-
til four years shall have passed since
Barnwell voted Its ten dispensaries
out. It is said that Barnwell coun-
ty has had considerable trouble with
"blind tigers" since it went dry, and
it is thought the people will vote in
the dispensary again as soon al they
get chance. We would not be sur
prised If an effort was made to re-
establish the dispensaries in Orange
burg county.

GOOD SUGGESTION.
Subscriber Suggests That We Have
Farmers Hog Contest.


Editor Times and Democrat:
Why not have Farmers Hog
Contest in County and State. l De-
,lleve it would be of great benefit as
the hog is so important on the farm.
In 1909 my wife put pig in the
yard and kept it there until 1t was
butchered at II months old. It
weighed 6s4 pounds gross. That en-
couraged her to try another one and
last year she put another one in the
yard when it was five months old
and kept it there until butchered on
the 7th Of December it was one year
and five months old and it weighed
1852 pounds. The farmers do not
know what they could do until they
try. I don't see why every farmer S
wife doesn't try a yard pig. These
pigs were, raised on. corn meal and
never put in pen.

Fix Up the Farm.

The Farm Journal says: "We see
no logical reason-do you?-why a
prosperous farmer should put all his
money in The bank and let the repair
Of farm buildings, fences, ETC., be
neglected. Money and time are we'll
spent in keeping up farm buildings
and fences. It's all right to save
something, as we go along, for a
rainy day; but there is more pleas
ure for the whole family in a small
er bank account, and in having
things kept neatly-to improve
rather than to deterioate."

LOCUST ARE COMING.
Seventeen.Year Breed Will Make
Appearance Soon.

-.a -s .- y. -
A letter from Washington to The
State says alI;the States east OF Ale
gheny mountains, from New Eng.
land and New York south to South
Carolina, are to, be visited this year
by the 17-year, locusts, according to
a bulletin issued by the department
Of agriculture. In addition to the
17-year kind, a brood Of 13-year To-
Gusts is expected this year in the
lower half of the Mississippi valley
extending southwark from middle
Indiana and Illinois as far eastward
as central Tennessee and westward
to Kansas and Oklahoma. 4
The Agricultural department has
records of the visitation of the II.
year variety for almost two cen
turies.. 1t has been reported in Con
necticut regularly every = years
since 1924 and in New Jersey since
1875. while !, almost equally long
records. have. been kept in other
States in the territory affected. +:
gAt the last appearance in 1S9aa
careful study of the 17-year locds;
was made in New Jersey and New
York, but some of the records OBJ
tanned in Southern States were
doubtful, especially in North Caro-
lima, because .;of the simultaneous
appearance of brood Of l3-yea1
locusts, which are mistaken in many
localities for the 17-year kind. The
bulletin says:
sIt is therefore very desirable thai
all observers in South Carolina re,
port occurrences this year of the IT.
year locusts to clear up these doubt
full records"
There seems to be some doubt as
to whether the brood will reach az
far south as South Carolina, al
though some scattering 1ocusts may
at least be expected. In the pas
they, have been reported in large
numbers at regular periods of Il
years In all the States east of the
Alleghenies as far south as soutf
Carolina, while scattering insects
have been reported in .weste IN Penn
s-lvania, northern West Virginia
Ohio, Indiana and lower Michigan.
The agricultural departm Is II
receInt of many Inquiries as tt
whether the locusts may be expected
this year and the circular Is issueo
in reply to them and for the pu1'
pose of securing reports on the al
pearance of the locusts as means q
increasing the present knowledge o1
them.
