These boys have been taught how

been prejudiced against scientific ag-

from the work of scientists, when

College of Agriculture will point with
pride to the corn club results as one

Fifty-nine boys of Chattooga county

county q boys averaged 81 bushels

In Tattnall county 81 boys averaged

WHAT COTTON TO PLANT
IN WEEVIL TERRITORY
r. J. H. DeLoach, Professor Cotton
Industry.

Query-What variety or varieties
are most resistant to the boil wee.
Gil?
No accepted conclusion has ever
been reached that there is a variety
resistant to the weevil.
The big boil, early fruiting varieties
are best, not because of early flower
ing, but because of the quickness in
maturing from flower to fruit. The
advantage of the short period from
flower to fruit is that the forage pc,
riod of the weevil is thus reduced. 1t
eats only the cotton boil and lives
only six or seven months. BY reduc
ing the forage period to the briefest
possible time, the greater the proba
bilities of starving the weevil.
The hot suns rays kill the weevil
and the okra leaf variety has been
especially recommended because the
sun light penetrates the plant thor
oughly. Rows planted north and
south, allowing the suns rays to fall
directly between, are an advantage for
this reason.

World Full of Happily Married

displayed before-the remissness of
man when it man when it comes to
remembering birthdays and annivers-
aries, and above all the way the brute
will stay out at night when he ought
to be at home-the easy mark" he is
for other women and all that sort of
thing, is absolutely right as regards
many, many men-also the men who
are so ungallant as to complain IN
public print of the cruel way they are
"nagged" at, the strange preference
their wives exhibit for bridge to their
society, the utter ignorance most
brides display when it comes to house
keeping is it should be done-the "eX-
travagance of women" and all this
sort of thing-no doubt they are right
as regards many, many women.
But the great truth is that it is
never fair or just to throw all the
blame on either sex, for it is not a;
all a question of personality. The
world is full of good women and good
wives-also there are many good and
devoted husbands-and when it comes
to the matrimonial miseries it is ofte.i
the fault of the man as the woman
and vice versa And so the period
icals are certainly wasting much
printers ink if their object is to dis.
cover which sex is the one chiefly al
fault. 1t is after all entirely ques-
ton of the individual and the indiyid-

not waste time by trying to decide tn,
question as to which is the most &c
blame in the majority of cases-tht

If anyone should pick up the lead

a: once be struck with the fact that
every one of them carries article at.

with the poor afflicted women of this

thing they should do, and how inva"-

boils with Indignation to think Of
what we women stand and with regret

And so it goes until one thinks OF
the line from Omar where he Heard
great argument about it and about

we can argue about it and about

dian maidens in the cavalry division
o. the Womans Suffrage pageant here
on March 3. This is said to be the
first time Indian women have taken
part in the nation wide movement for
extending the franchise to women.
In Dawn Mist's troop will be ten
maidens, all selected as being the
most representative of their tribe. All
will be dressed in the tribal ceremon-
ial costumes and be mounted in In

Elaborate Indian bead work.

ment, succeeded in obtaining the CO.
operation of Louis w. Hill, son Of

fen. While in Washington the Indian
girls will live in their own tepees on
camp ground provided for them.

is taking large proportions. 1t is be-
lieved at suffrage headquarters that

The agent first searches for letters
or documents giving possible clews to
relations. Many have travelled under
assumed names, for good and suffici-
ent reasons of their own. Their C..

detailed report accompanies the pack
age. 1t is filed away and the package
goes to the uncanny store-room.
There the articles remain until
claimed-abont once in every 100 in
stances-or, as is more often the case,
until the available space becomes
cramped Then, after brief period
of advertising, they are sold at public
auction and the work of collecting be-
gins all over again.
These sales occur about once N
every two or three years. 1--WE dare
not advertise detaided descriptions of
any effects; that would give crooks a
chance to patch up relationships, y
says DR.. Butler. Later, bona-fide
relative would come along, would put
in claim and would have a good
damage suit against the government.
A 15-cent knife, of no use to you Or
me, would be invaluable to the mother
who gave it to her son who disap-
peared years ago."
One package contains the not very
valuable estate of an old Confederate
veteran, who, disappointed at the out
come of the war, went into exile in
Rio de Janerio. Another. that of del
Senior Smee-eth," who suddenly ap-
peared in small Spanish town, spent
his money there lavishly for several
years, and then committed suicide. He
left three large silver Spanish dol
lars, few bronze 2-cent pieces, a
diamond scarfpin, a pair of gold CUT
buttons and a silver-handled pocket
knife. What drove him to Spain will
probably always remain mystery.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

l hereby announce myself candi-
date for Sheriff OF Sumter county to
I'LL the unexpired term of w. H. Fea-
gin, deceased. If elected, Mr.. Jack
Slappey, of Plains, Ga, will be my
deputy.
Since entering the race for sheriff
many voters have requested US to add
a third man to our ticket, who would
be jailer, without any other duties, on
ly look after the Jail and prisoners.
After giving the matter careful con-
sideration. we have decided that sum-
ter county is now large enough, and
the care of the Jail and prisoners i'm
portant enough for some one to be on
duty there all the time. Therefore, We
wish to announce to our friends and
voters generally, that if elected, MIR. j.
B. Nicholson will be jailer, and give
his entire time to that important posi-
ton.
We will appreciate heartily the
support of our friends and the voters
generally. Respectfully.

UNsoUND FEED.
w. M. Burson, Professor Veterinary
Science.

Numerous reports have been receiv-
ed from various parts of the state
of the death of horses and mules of
a disease known in some section
as meningitis in others blind
staggers'' and in others as stomach
staggers." Symptoms usually re-
ported are loss of appetite, dull
ness, sleepiness, blindness; in
many instances a staggering gait and
great bodily weakness, and in some
instances fits during which they rear,
plunge and struggle violently. Death
often occurs in from "a to AZ hours.
These troubles are caused mostly
by poisonous molds such as may &C.
cur on low pasture lands or hay fod-
der and grain. The molds cause de-
struction of nerve tissues and few
cases recover without early expert
medical attention.
Avoid trouble by closely watching
the feed supply, both grain and rough
age and provide fresh, clean water.
At the first sign of the disease call
a veterinarian. If none is to be had.
give salts or linseed oil and large and
frequent doses of salt-peter. Cold, wet
packs applied to the head are some
times beneficial. Moldy feeds are
injurious to all kinds of live stock.

Running in front Of an automobile
at Sixth and DUPONT streets yester-
day afternoon, Grace Geizler, aged
two years and six months, whose par
ents live at No. 1905 West Sixth
street, was almost instantly killed.
The automobile was owned and
driven by the Rev. John ]. Lynch, as
sistant pastor of St. Thomas Church,
at Fourth street and Grant avenue,
who had with him a party of small
children out for a ride. The automo-
bile was rounding the corner at Sixth
and DUPONT streets when the child
ran from the sidewalk directly in
front of the machine. In trying to
avoid the child Father Lynch ran his
car into the curb. Two policemen
standing at the corner witnessed the
accident and accompanied Father
Lynch to the police station.
After the case had been explained
to City Solicitor Daniel o. Hastings,
Father Lynch went his way, as no
charge was placed against him The
young priest was so affected by the ac-
ci6ent that be wept bitterly. He will
appear as a witness before the coro-
