DISEASED TEETH
4 MENACE TO HEALTH

That the mouth of almost every in
dividual is unsanitary is no longer a
question of doubt. 1t forms an ideal
medium for the propagation of all
forms of bacteria.
1t is Of just the right temperature,
contains at all times the necessary
moisture and atmosphere, and the
ideal food elements in which to devel-
op a culture of almost any germ. So
that we have in the mouth an ideal
medium for the propagation of pneu-
monia, diptheria, tuberculosis, ty-
phoid, meningitis and the germ of al
most every other contagious and in
fectious disease.
Such a mouth. is not only a menace
to the child that possesses it, but
those germs are breathed out, coughed
out and sneezed out into the home
the school room, the cars, the thea
tres, and each of such mouths is a
menace to an entire community.
A child with defective teeth and
an unsanitary mouth, besides the con-
tagious disease is menaced by such
troubles as glandular enlargements
tonsilitis, adenoids, all pulmonary and
intestinal troubles, and many cases of
mania have been traced directly to
the infection and irritation of the
trifacial through cavities in the teeth.

AS WE SEE 1T.

We have pushed along the "buy-a-
bale" movement. We have urged ev-
cry one who is able to hold a bale to
buy one and hold it, thus keeping cot
ton off the market as long as possible
The movement has assumed wide pro-
portions and has done some good But
the fact is, this sort of thing is but a
makeshift. 1t is remedy but not a
cure. A man in agony often swallows
some temporary remedy, knowing
that it will not in the least ward off
the serious operation which will fol-
low soon or late. The pain may be
allayed but the cause is not removed
and until that occurs the pain will re-
cur at intervals and with fearful vio-
lence. The cotton grower must find a
cure. Remedies in plenty are to be
found. What is vastly better and what
must be found is a cure. The govern
ment's money to move crops, the laws
demands to reduce acreage and thus
cut production are not much better.
These too are remedies and not cures.
The real cure lies in another direction
The farmer himself is the docto: in
the case; his salvation must come
from within mot from without. lie
must operate upon an entirely differ
ent idea. Cotton must be made his
secondary crop. He must raise out of
the ground his staples of life first
and raise for the few actual needs
outside of his own resources. He must
build up his soil by planting clover
and other legumes. He must raise
fruits and vegetables and learn to
live at home. We believe he is rapid

BROWNING SUGGESTS WAY
TO CUT COTTON ACREAGE

Mr.. Editor: The great war in Eu-
rope has disorgaEized all business to
a greater or less extent. 1t has been
specially destructive to the cotton in
dustry, which is not only the basis of
wealth in the South, but furnishes to
the United States, her favorable bal
ance of trade with the rest of the
world
The business men, not only of the
South, but of the entire country, have
shown THERE appreciation of this
grave situation in the "buy- -a-bale"
movement and many other ways.
The governor has called the gen
eral assembly in extra session, to ad-
vice means, if possible, to avert the
calamitous conditions now confront
ing the cotton producer.
Under these circumstances it seems
to me that at the meeting to be held
October 1st, at the various county
seats, some definite plan should be
agreed upon and submitted to the
general assembly for their considera-
ton. I would suggest something
along the following lines:
That a license be placed upon each
acre of cototn planted in this State
for the season of 1915, that for the
first eight or ten acres per work
animal, the license be almost nomi-
nal, say 1Oc per acre; that for all
this specified amount, the license be
made practically prohibitive, say SIC
per acre.
Allow me to say that | am not the
first to publicly advocate this plan
for while | was considering it's fea-
sibility, / saw an article in the press
by Mr.. Gruber of Walterboro of
which the above is a synopsis, and
have no desire to deprive him of the
credit of first advocating it.
| would put teeth in this law and
make it effective in the following
manner-that the delegation to the
general assembly shall recommend
to the governor one citizen from each
school district in the State, where
cotton is grown, whose duty it shall
be, between the first of June, 1915
and the first of July of same year., to
inspect each and every field of cotton
planted in his school district, estimat-
ing, or if necessary, measuring the
same. He shall also ascertain the
number of work animals kept by each
producer and report his findings in
full to the county treasurer, not later
than July 18th, 1915. The county
treasurer shall then proceed to enter
it on his books under the heading
"Cotton license for the year 1915,'
and this license shall be collected as
the other taxes are collected. For the
pay of this school district Inspector, |
| would recommend that thew receive
about So per day for not more than
ten days, and an additional $40 for
necessary travelling expenses and

TRAGEDY OR COMEDY?

Life to many is a sort of huge joke
"a comedy. Such individuals are
never serious, never weighed down
with responsibilities. They throw off
responsibility like ducks back sheds
water. Such individuals would carry
their umbrellas so as to allow a fol
lowing pedestrian to punch out his
eye and upon such situation exclaIn,,
Il did not mean to do it," There is :.
disposition on the part of many par
ents to train their children in the idea
that life is a funny comedy; nothing
is to be taken seriously; nothing is t1
be considered reverently. The trLth
is, life Is tragedy. From the cradle
to the grave it is struggle, battle

DE PALMAs. NEW CAR.

Ralph De- Palma arrived in New York last Wednesday after a some what exciting getaway from Germany with the new German car which he is to drive, in races this season. The two time winner of the Vanderbilt Cup was quite elated over the fact that. he got the car on the water in the nick or time, for a few hours delay might have prevented its coming to this coun- try. Ralph may drive 1t in the Van derbilt and Grand Prix races at the Eanama-Pacif1c International Exposf- <tion next winter. If De Palma can win another Vanderbilt Cup rece the famous William K. vanderbilt, IT,, tro- pf1y will become his permanent prop erty. Should De Palma decide not to drive the Mercedes in California he may be seen on the new racer which the Vauxha11 company in England is building for him. This, of course, de- bends upon war conditions a few months hence.
 Fortunately for the vanderbilt Cup, Grand Prix and other race meets scheduled for the season, many of the foreign speed creations are in this country at present.

 America practically holds the key to the food market of the world to= day, and. with a bumper crop, and war prices the returns from the food products of our soil will make a new Ihigh record.

WRONGFUL DEATH.4In re Bren

WRONGFUL DEATH.-In re Bren- nan's Account, Supreme Court, Alp pellate Division, Second Department, 145 New York Supplement, 440, gives clear-cut statements of the New York law concerning causes of action aris- ing outsof wrongful death: "A cause of action for the recovery of da1na- ges for the pecunfary injury resulting from death is purely a statutory one. Stuber vs. McEntee, 142- N. Y.,@20o, 36 N. D. SIS. It is not founded upon the violation of any natural right known to the common law. It is new cause of action, which is wholly distinct from and not a, revivor of the cause of action which, if he had sur yived, the decedent would have for his bodily injury, Hence, as a general rule, no action will lie for 8 wrong committed out of this state which resulted in death (Whit- ford vs. Panama Railroad Co.,, supra); authorizes a recovery upon grounds substantially similar to our own, the courts of this state will entertain such action in a. spirit of comity This cause of action is in the nature
 of property right arising out of the interest which one has in the life of another upon whom one is or may be dependent or to whose services he is entitled. It is 'pecuniary right; right having the essential attributes ", away compensation is due.' When, subsequent to the commencement of the action, but before the recovery of judgment therein, the sole next of kin of the injured person died, the action did not abate, because that right of action was the property of the beneficiary which was not forfeit ed by his death, but became part of his estate This right of action be- longs to the persons named in the statute as the benef1ciaries of the benef1ciaries of WAndocumentUJenL proceeds of the judgment, and not to the administrator. Hence payment of a sum to one who was not one of the benefciaries named in the statute, in full settlement of the claim for injury, has been held not to bar a subsequent action by him the ad-
 ninistrator of decedent to recover for such injuries for the benefit of the next of kin (Stuber vs. McEntee, su- pra), while payment to one who was sole next of kin of a sum in settle ment of such claim did bar a subse- quent application after his death to set such compromise aside. This action is not brought to recover for personal injuries done to the bene- fcfaries, although arising out. of | personal injury to another. Hence negligence of the sole next of kin which contributed to the injury if not irnputatle to the decedent, is not a bar to Hthe action"

ILLUMINATING THE GDARE.

"A large number of appliances. have been put upon the market recently to meet the, demand for means of elinin- attng the dazzling glare of automobile head lights" said George H. Peck, of The Peck G. Lines Co.,, distributors in this territory for the Haynes. Smear ing grease or securing soap on the lenses will keep the driver from run ming into conflict with city ordinances, but such an expedient is only tempor- ary at best. Some devices provide shutters that can be thrown across the lamps. These are usually operated electrically and may be controlled from. the dash. In a few instances, the en- | tire Tense is frosted. In either case the absurd situation is encountered in that a high candle power lamp is used at all times, and, in securing less H. lumina ton, it is partially covered up while the current consumption remains the same.
 "A connraon method of cutting down the glare and reducing the illumination l with dimming mechanism is to switch coils of resistance wire into the lamp circuits in order to cut down the voltage. Though the desired. result is obtained, the resistance coils cause an extravagant use of the battery cur rent.
 -'tThe Haynes Automobile company. Kokomo, Ind. has come forward with a unique solution of the problem in l1AO AcE -NIoS0i oV 1@hSIAL, SIX CeT IlaC IS | being put on the market for the 1915 season. The annoya11ce from the glare in both city and country driving is eliminated by the use of two simple devices The head light bulbs are frosted on the upper half only, SO that the rays reflected upward are diffused and softened. thus eliminating the ob- jectienable sblfnding effect on drivers o1 passing cars in the country. The rays Il reflected downward through the cleal glass of thesbulbs are projected straight
 ahead onto the road.

THE SPARK PLUG.

Many motorists cannot obtain max imun efficiency from their cars sin1p- ly for the reason that while they may be using a good make of spark plug, it may be of a type or shape not adapted to their particular motor. A R. Mosler, spark plug expert, says that to obtain maximum efficiency the points of the. plug should be located properly in the combustion chamber. Oftentimes plugs are used with too short a shell, so that the plug itself does not protrude a. sufficient distance into the chamber, and in other cases the plug is too long.
