ANNOUNCEMENTS
For Sheriff.

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
Ia 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-
Isideration, 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 .here all the time. Therefore, we
wish to announce to our friends and
voters generally, that if elected, Mr.. ].
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.
Advt. G. S. GARDNER.

SUDDEN CHANGE TO clio.
YER MAY BLOAT CATTLE

With the coming OF spring when
cattle are changed from dry feed to
pasture, to avoid serious loss it is
necessary for the farmer to watch
carefully for bloat, according to the
veterinary department of the Col
lege of Agriculture Of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin.
Bloat is form OF indigestion due
to the excessive formation and ac-
emulation of various gases in the
paunch or rumen The attack is es-
pecially apt to occur when cattle
Ire suddenly changed from hay
diet to green clover or alfalfa. 1t is
most often seen during warm, wet,
weather, or when heavy dew or rain
moistenS the foliage.
The chief symptom of bloating is
sudden distension in the left flank,
which swells up and appears as tight
as drumhead when thumped with
the finger Relief must be immedi-
ate, if suffocation is to be avoided,
and consists in providing an artifi-
cial outlet for the gas by tapping"
the animal This is best accomplished
by inserting a trocar and canula in
TO the most prominent portion OF the
swelling. To prevent further gas for
nation administer drench of two
ounces of turpentine in a pint of
raw linseed oil or a quart of new
milks
AS a prevention avoid turning the
cattle out until the dew or rain has
Tried off In addition, giving full
eed of dry roughage, such as the
animals are accustomed to, just be-
'ore turning them out, will be found
nelpful in preventing this trouble.

Man Discharged Because Mind WsS

John Gustafson of Osceola, a for
mer section boss for the 500 line,

of evidence that his mind was fail
ing, stabbed himself in the mouth

The little difference of opinion that
existed over the state exhibit at the
Panama Pacific international exrosi
tion in San Francisco in 1915 appears
to have been settled The assembly
has already passed a bill providing
for an exhibit at the exposition, the
amount to be spent being specified at
SIS, 900 Indications are that the bill
will be passed in the senate, although
it may be amended to increase the ap-
preparation as some of the senators
feel that the amount specified is
hardly large enough to make an ade-
orate display.
1t is the plan to make the exhibit
largely agricultural. Farmers Of the
state will be we'll represented, and
the university may exhibit some of
its best products.
