SUMMING UP THE EVIDENCE.
Many Walhalla People Have Been
Called as Witnesses.

Week after week has been pub

ple-kidney sufferers-backach vic

many forms of kidney, bladder or
urinary disorders. These witnesses
have used Doan's Kidney Pills. All
have given their enthusiastic appro-
val. It's the same everywhere. 3O,-
900 American men and women are
publicly recommending Doan's-al-
ways in the home papers. Isn't it a
wonderful, convincing mass of proof?
If you are a sufferer your verdict
must be "Try Doan's first"
Here's one more Walhalla case:

JACK JOHNSON GIVEN A YEAR.
Also Fine of 81 ,OOO--AsISs Time to
Prepare Writ OF Error.

Chicago, June 4.--Jack Johnson,
negro heavyweight champion, to-day
was sentenced to one year and one
day in the State prison at Joliet and
fined $1,000 for violation of the
Mann white slave" act.
Sentence was pronounced on John
son after Federal Judge Carpenter
had denied a motion for new trial.
Johnson obtained two weeks time
in which to prepare writ of error,
and the bond of $4,000, on which
he had been set at liberty since his
conviction, was allowed to stand.
Half dozen deputy United States
marshals, who had grouped them
selves around Johnson in anticipa-
ton of resistance when the prison
sentence was given, 1T the room
when Judge Carpenter announced
that the fighter would continue tenn
porarily at liberty.
The sentence TO the State prison
is owing tc the crowded condition of
the Federal prison at Leavenworth
Johnson left the court room declar-
ing that he would not give up his
fight.
Judge Carpenter in passing SEN
tence said
THE circumstances in this case
nave been aggravating. The life of
the defendant, by his own admis-
sions, has not been a moral one. The
defendant is one of the host known
men of his race, and his example has
been far-reaching."
The court denied request of
counsel for Johnson that the negro
be allowed to serve the term in the
CITY Bridewell instead of the State
prison.
Johnson was convicted May 10 ,f
having PAID for the TRANSFORMATION of
Belle Schriber from Pittsburg. Pa.
to Chicago.

TWELVE GOOD REASONS WHY
You Should Sow PeaS---And Then
Sow More Peas.
Progressive Farmer.) }


l. They are fairly good human
food.
q. They are one of our most nutri-
tious feeds for stock.
8. The De , alone are worth from
$5 to $40 per acre.
4. Cow pea hay is easily worth
$40 per ton. The yield varies from
one to three tons per acre.
5. If left on the land and turned
under, the vines are worth from IS
to SIS per acre as fertilizer.
6. The roots and stubble are worth
from 50 to 81 per acre as fertilizer.
z, The vines, roots and stubble
furnish humus vegetable matter)
something nearly all soils are def
Cient in.
S. This humus helps to make the
land cultivate easily; absorbs and
holds moisture that will aid a crop
to continue it's growth during a
drouth, and furnishes the conditions
necessary for the existence Of bene-
ficial bacteria that enable plants to
get nitrogen from the air.
9. The shade Of pea vines helps in
the formation Of valuable nitrates in
the soil.
10. Pea vine roots are good sub
soilers. They go to considerable
depths, opening up the earth so air
and water can make deep soil.
IL. Cow peas fit in well in nearly
all systems Of rotations Of crops.
They are well adapted to growing
among corn and after small grain
harvested In the spring.
IL. Peas get some Of their nitro
gen from the ali, free of cost to the
farmer. Nitrogen in commercial fer
tilizers costs about 20 cents per
pound.

VALUE OF GROWING COW PEAS.
Iron and Brabham Varieties q Neces-
sity Where Cotton Wilt Occurs.

Clemson College, May 31.-Spe-
cial: Every farmer in South Carolina
recognizes the necessity of growing
cow peas, but few seems to realize
the value Of planting a good variety.
Some Of the most progressive farm
ers in the State, who exercise great
care in the planting Of the best vari-
eties OF cotton, corn or oats, pay no
attention whatever 10 their COW peas.
If we would get the best results from
a field of COW peas 1T Is equally as
necessary that we plant good seed of
one of the best varieties.
From our experience during the
past two years in our work with the
farmers Of the State, we feel no hesi-
fancy in recommending the Iron and
Brabham as probably the best varie-
ties Of cow peas for this State. Both
of these varieties are too well known
for discussion here. The fact that
they have proven almost universally
satisfactory in different parts OF the
State is sufficient proof OF their grow
ing and keeping qualities.
Iron and Brabham COW peas have
special advantage over common va
rieties in that they are resistant to
both wilt and root-kpot diseases,
very prevalent in the eastern section
of this State as well as in other
Southern States No common variety
OF COW peas should be grown on land
infected by these diseases, because
the trouble is increased by their
growth. The eel worms, which cause
root-knot, and increase the loss from

Hog Cholera and Its Control.

CThis Is the fourth of series Of
press bulletins on hog cholera. Pre-
ceding articles described symptoms
and post mortem LESSONS of cholera,
also the manner in which the disease
spreads.)
Sanitary Measures for Control.
When cholera exists in a neighbor-
hood every hog owner should estab-
lish a strict quarantine on his indi-
vidual premises. No one except the
person taking care of the hogs should
be allowed near the fields or pens
where healthy hogs are confined and
this man should not, under any con-
d1t1ons, visit premises where there
are sick hogs,
Dogs and buzzards should be con-
sidered dangerous and should be
guarded against. The buzzard is
undoubtedly one of the most common
carriers Of the disease, and it Is un-
fortunate that these scavengers are
protected by law in some sections of
the State.
All new hogs should be considered
infected and should be isolated until
sufficient time has elapsed (three or
four weeks) to prove their freedom
from disease. Hogs purchased from
distant points should be protected
by injection with anti-hog cholera Sc
rum before shipment, as they are apt
to be exposed to the disease en- route.
When cholera exists on adjoining
farms hogs should be protected by
injection with antiJhog cholera Sc
rum. 1t Is also the duty of all citi-
zens to see that the State law rela-
tive to proper disposal of carcasses
Is strictly enforced.
To Prevent Spread of Cholera.
The sudden death of one or two
hogs should lead owners to suspect
cholera. Caerful examination of the
carcasses should at once be made,
preferably by veterinarian, and the
carcasses should then, be deeply bur-
led or burned.
If the LESSONS found on post NOR
TEN examination are characteristic
or cholera, a strict quarantine should
be established and all healthy hogs
should be moved to new lots or pens
until they can be protected by injec-
ton with anti-hog cholera serum.
Pens and lots that have been occu-
pied by sick hogs should be thor
oughly disinfected. The lots can best
~ NicihiSStSu Ny plo"luS-Uuo re-
fuse should first be cleaned up and
burned or buried. Pens, feeding
troughs, ETC., can be disinfected with
3 per cent solution of compound So
luton Of cresol, per cent carboic
acid or other satisfactory disinfect-
ant Carcasses should be immedi-
ately burned or buried. This is now
required by State law.
Anti"hog cholera serum, when in
Jected alone, gives immunity for
from four to eight weeks, but this
immunity becomes more permanent
when injected hogs are exposed to
infection, therefore some prefer to
turn injected hogs back on to. infect
ed premises for a week or two be-
fore disinfecting.
Under existing conditions in this
State hog raising would be very
uncertain proposition were it not for
the fact that hogs can be protected
from this disease by the use of Sc
rum. Information relative to anti
hog cholera serum will be given in
the next article.

Women, it seems, for the most part
are governed by the same influence all

proper persons to make and execute

Again, If equal rights were given the
