Great Britain and Japan, having

Foreign Land Companies Doing Busi-
mes IN This State.

Several foreign land companies
have recently had agents i'm this State
selling lands or stock in their COM
panies without having complied with
the laws of the State. All such COM
panies are required to deposit a bond
for $4,000 or securities in that
amount with the insurance depart
ment to guarantee the faithful per-
formance of their contracts and to re-
spond to any suits brought. against
them in South Carolina. They are re-
quired to furnish the Insurance Com
missioner with a satisfactory state
ment Of condition. and the insurance
commissioner is required to investi-
gate such companies fully to deter
mine whether or not they are worthy
Of confidence
1t has been brought to the atten-
tion of the Insurance Commissioner
that several representatives of the X.
G. s. & Frisco Emigration Company
of POteau, oklahoma, have been in
this State selling or offering for sale
land belonging to this company. Like
wise it has been brought to the at
tentiOn of the Insurance Commits
sioner that representative or repre-
sentatives of the Southern Orchard
Company Of Knoxville, Tenn, have
been in the State. This company is
said to be Offering for sale lands to
be developed for fig orchards in Jas

In each case the Insurance Com
missioner has taken prompt action
and has notified the companies that
he will have their representatives ar

the law, but it generally happens
that the representatives get out Of
the State before the commissioner
can arrest them or the companies

CANDIDATES IN MANNING.
CLARENDON COUNTY CHAIRMAN
MAINTAINS ORDER.
Jennings Bitterly ExcOriates Mayor
and Police Chief of Georgetown for
Their ActiOn-POllOck Replies to
Appelr.

Manning, Aug. 19.-The campaign
meeting here today was a striking
contrast to that of two years ago,
when the leaders of the two contend
ing factions were both in effect hOwled
down. In his Introductory remarks
this morning. S. Oliver O'Bryan, coun-
ty chairman, announced: It's our
purpose to maintain order today; and
we're not bluffing either" This posi-
tive declaration was effective in coun-
teracting any possible purpose to du-
plicate the Georgetown performance
OF last Monday, when l.. d. Jennings
was not allowed to speak. Each of the
four candidates got a respectful hear
ing. though L. d. Jennings and w. p.
Pollock had numerous retOrts thrust
at them from angry administration
partisans in the audience.
The distinct feature Of the meeting
was L. d. jennings bitter excoriatiun
of w. II. Andrews, mayor of George
town. and the chief Of police of that
city. Both Of these officials sat on the
stage last Monday, speechless and in
active, while the most disOrderly
crowd OF the entire campaign
wrangled and jeered at Mr.. Jennings,
and while confusion and disorder ran
rampant This was characterized by
Mr.. Jennings as an illustration Of the
governors bOasted machine in opera
ton, Mr.. Andrews being a close per-
sonal and political friend of the gov
ernOr. The Atlantic Coast Lumber
corporation was denounced as the one
corporation that had robbed more
people in the State than any other
land that the Yankee officials vote the
operatives as you would drive a herd
Of sheep into a pasture"
Another interesting phase Of todays
hustings was w. p. Pollock's reply to
Louis Appelt, editor of the Manning
Times. who has been criticising Mr.

| foreign and unnaturalized element in
Charleston, which compose a consid-

! Appelt' doesn't know that I'm a South
CarOlinian, and an American citizen
to the manner born, that's his igno-
rance and not my fault" Mr.. Pollock
added.
Approximately 1900 persons at
tended the meeting here today, which
was held in the grove directly behind
the court house. s. Oliver OBryan

The members Of the fire depart

lose one Of their pet coach dogs when
out practising on the hose wagon.
The wagon wheel passed over the
dogs head and Jerry III was no more.
These two coach dogs have been kept

nave attracted quite a lot of attention.
They were owned by Messrs. Herman

HANDLING INCUBAT0RS.

Directions az to the Selection and
Operation Of Matching Machines.
See that the incubator is running
steadily ID the desired temperature be-
fore filling with eggs. Do not add
fresh eggs to tray containing eggs
which are undergoing incubation. says
the department Of agriculture.
Turn the eggs twice daily after the
second and until the nineteenth day.
Cool the eggs once daily. according to
the weather, from the seventh to the
nineteenth day
Turn the eggs before caring for the
lamps.
Attend to the machine carefully at
regular hours.
Keep the lamp and wick clean.
Test the eggs on the seventh and
fourteenth days.
Do not open the machine after the
eighteenth day until the chickens are
hatched.
In setting up and operating an in
cubator follow the directions of the
manufacturer. The equipment of most
incubatOrs is SD subject to change that
particular lamps. regulators, ETC.. can
not be recommended. The lamp. how
ever. should have bowl large enough
to hold enough oil to burn thirty six
hours under average weather condi-
lions, should be easy to remove and
replace, should set absolutely tight in
position. and be at Il convenient height.
An incubator holding sixty eggs calls
for as much time and care as one
holding 800. and for ordinary use a
machine Of at least $50 egg capacity
seems most satisfactory. A fair esti-
mate for poultry farm is to have the
incubator hold as many eggs as there
are hens. provided that about ne-half
Of the flock is to be renewed yearly
and no outside Matching is carried on.
In setting up the machine get 1t per-
fectly level. Do not plane off the door
II it sticks until the machine has been
heated up and thoroughly dried Run
the machine at about 1902 degrees f.
for day before putting in the eggs.
Afterward do not touch the regulator
for several hours. as it takes this time
for the machine to come back to its
regular temperature.
The temperature should remain near
ly even. When the bulb of the Their
mometer rests directly on the eggs the
temperature is usually held at 1O1Ha
to l02 degrees #. the first week. 1O2
to 1903 degrees F. the second week and
1903 degrees #. the last week. while a
hanging thermometer is operated at
about 1902 to 1929 degrees F. the first
two weeks and 1O3 degrees F. the last
week.
The eggs tend to throw off more
heat as they develop. SO that occa.
sionally the regulator needs to be
changed slightly. but 1t should not be
changed any more than is absolutely
necessary. The temperature of the
egg chamber may be lowered by low
ering the fame of the lamp in the mid
die of the day. Regulate the incuba,
tor before opening the door to attend
to the eggs. Most operators attend to
their machines two or three times
daily

and nourishment to feed the young
pigs before birth that the mature SOW
has. and the pigs are smaller ut time
OF birth. She is not likely to farrow
as many pigs at the first litter as she
will In later years. The pigs from the
young sows do not grow as large as
those from the older ones. and there is
tendency to reduce the size Of the
animals raised from them.
In breeding the best is none too good
The mature SOW that has proved her
ability to bring large filters of pigs. In
which there Is large percentage of
good ones, Is valuable animal to
keep. Fecundity is Il desirable chnrac-
teristic. as one does not need to be at
the expense of feeding as many sows
to keep up the supply of pigs as when
they have small filters. The mature
sow has large amount Of blood and
nourishes the pigs well while carrying
them. The pigs are large and strong
at time of birth. often reaching double
the size and weight Of those from the
young sow.
There seems to be an impression that
sows will cease breeding after they
are three or four years old. That is a
mistaken idea. There are cases on rec
ord where sows have bred until twen-
ty-five and thirty years of age. If a
sow skips one season in breeding she
should not be condemned Cows do
the same thing occasionally. and we
think but little of it. There may be
good reasons for such occurrences.

Increase Milk by Dehornina.

Removing the horns of cows lessons
the danger of injury and increases the
production of milk. In an experiment
with ten cows ut the Kansas Agricul-
tural college it was found that for the
first five days after dehorning the
cows lost an average of one+haif pound
of milk day. At the end of the fifth
day they began to return to their nor
NAL flow. and In few days eight of
them were giving a substantial in
crease. The greatest gain was with
driven away from their feed previous
to the dehorning. The two that did
not increase in production were the

MATURE SOWS THE
BEST PRODUCERS

1t is an error quite frequently made
to dispose of the mature sows because
they are heavier and will bring more
In the market than the young ones and
to keep the immature females to breed
from. says w. H. Underwood in Iowa
Homestead. There are several reasons
why the young sows do not do as well
ana are not as profitable us the mature
sowS.
In the first place. the young SOW Is
immature, is growing and is not deveI.
oped IN bodily form. and consequently
when called OH TO produce II litter Of
pigs during that period she is doing
double duty. growing toward mature
size and carrying and feeding the
young ell at the same time. For the
reason that she Is doing double duty.
she has not the large supply Of blood
