HOUSE REBUKE FOR

\ SWEEPING REFORM
Action on Postoffice Bill In
I dicates Ban Will Be
Ii Lifted.
BY THEODORE TILLER.

BY an overwhelming vote the House Is
today on record against the executive
gag" orders which forbid employees Of
the Government service from petitioning
Congress for redress of grievances.
The House adopted with a whoop late
yesterday that section of the Postoffice
appropriation bill which provides that
postal employees shall have the right Of
petition as well as the privilege of affli-
iating with labor organizations or other
associations formed for mutual benefit
The action of the House can apply,
of course, only to the employees Of the
Postofffce Department, since the Post
,office budget applies only to that de-
ipartment, but the action taken is pro-
lphetic and indicates that the gag will
ultimately be removed from the mouths
!of all Government employees.

There are shirt waist boxes galore,
innumerable dress chests and many
improvised receptacles for us in the
woman's room, but the latest novelty
is the result of an ingenious brain,
which conceived the possibilities Of
having a dress box, full length, to
match the hardwood floor in her
room.
A cheap frame was constructed OF
pine, lined throughout with white oil
cloth, the edge glued on the outside.
This was covered with linoleum, a
clever imitation of oak, in two shades.
1t was glued to the outside and the
raw edges were covered with tan
leather strips, held in place with
brass studs. The hinges and lock were
of brass. Two stout straps were
tackled to the inside of the lid, max
ing a good receptacle for holding two
parasols. Ball-bearing casters com
pleted the dress box, and the owner
paid much less for this treasure thar
a fancy one would cost at any store.

The county commissioners will this
year more than ever cause the county
farm, two miles west of Americas, to
prove source of revenue to the
county. To this end the farm lands
will be carefully prepared and highly
fortified, and without cost to the
county, as the work will be done by
convicts when not other wise engage
ed.
There are about ninety acres open
land on the county farm, and this is
rapidly being brought up to a high
state of cultivation, as evidenced by
the splendid crops produced there
during the past two or three years.
Previous to that time the farm, for
merly known as the Poor Farm, >
was given little attention and brought
the county only an insignificant sum
annually in rentals. Then the COM
misisoners decided to go to farming
upon their own account, and the re,
suits attained in the past two years
would have reflected credit upon the
most successful farmer in the county.
Fine crops of corn, oats, peas, pota-
toes and vegetables were produced. In

COUNTY FARM HAS Been MADE
VALUABLE Piece OF PROPERTY
LAND THAT WAS ONCE VERY POOR HAS Been IMPROVED so THAT IT NOV
YIELDS EXCELLENT RETURNS TO The COUNTY

1 oats alone the yield was fifty bushels
| per acre last year.
Much stable fertilizer is hauled
from the county stockade on rainy
| days, and spread upon the farm. In
this manner the Poor Farm" where
once the county's paupers were cared
for, is poor farm no longer.
A few years ago this farm of proba-
bly, 200 acres might have been bought
for few dollars per acre. 1t was
poor" all right, there being no poorer
streak of dirt in Sumter county, but
successful management by the com
missioners with high fertilization, has
wrought a wonderful change and the
Poor Farm" is now a valuable prop
erty
No cotton is grown there, the lands
being utilized wholly for the produc-
sion of food crops. There is no cos
for labor, as the convicts work it at
odd times, and fine crops Ofvegetables
for their consumption are grown on
the county farm. Cabbage, collards.
potatoes, turnips, melons and other
truck which can be used in feeding
the convicts constitute the crops. This
as well may be understood, cuts down
the monthly expense bill in feeding
seventy or eighty convicts. The farm.
besides, furnishes a home for sick
and disabled convicts, who can be bet
ter cared for there than in crowded
quarters.
More attention will be given this
year to raising hogs on the farm aa
meat supply for the convicts. Many
hogs are raised there already, at prac-
tically little cost, as there is a fine
woods pasture for them. with running
water. Hay and corn for the countv's
eighty fine mules is also produced on
the poor farm" to a considerable en-
tent. All this wonderful change has
been brought about within the past
two or three years by the county
commissioners. Not only is the Poor
Farm source of considerable rev
enue now, but its sale value has been
enhanced many times already.
