HOW TO NAVE MORE MEAT
NEXT FALL IN THIS STATE

The present live stock situation
brought on by the European war
and other causes will suggest of
the enterprising farmer in South
Carolina the advantage of in
creasing his live stock produc-
ton this winter. High prices
for meat products will undoubt-
edly prevail next spring owing
to the shortage of cattle in the.
grass belt which have gone into
the feed lots this fall, the out
break of foot and mouth disease
in the beef producing States
with the resulting uneasiness
among the feeders in that sec
ton, and the tremendous demand
for food supplies which will un-
doubtedly come from the warning
nations of Europe.
These conditions offer oppor-
tunities in live stock production
for the South Carolina farmer,
not only for a profitable enter
prise. but also for the permanent
solution of some of his knottiest,
agricultural problems.
Any activity which the farmer
attempts should be in the nature
of a gradual development and
growth with view to producing
enough meat for home consump-
ton and a small surplus, rather
than plunging into it suddenly
on a large scale. He should con-
serve the best breeding stock on
the farm which may be avail
able, instead of consigning it to
the pork barrel or the butcher,
and should procure a pure bred
size of the proper type with
which to grade up his herd until
good, marketable stuff is being
produced. In this manner the
farmer can gradually grow into
live stock production with a
small outlay of money, and can
market his surplus while high
prices are prevailing. Beef and
pork can be produced to ad-
vantage in South Carolina and
the times offer opportunities
which should not be overlooked.
Pork production especially is a
profitable enterprise, yielding
maximum returns in short
time, with a small outlay of cap
ital. The development of beef
production on the farm should in
all cases be accompanied with
establishment of permanent pas
lures.
interest in the breeding of live
stock has developed very rapidly
in South Carolina and in several
counties live stock associations
have been formed for cooperation
among members and for discus
sion of live stock problems of
common interest. These organi-
cations have already been of
great value to the communities
in which they exist, as we'll as
to the individual members. They
have been organized in Oconee,
Anderson, Greenville, Spartan
burg, York and Calhoun counties
and Greenwood county is about

bills she put back the card OF instruc-
tons with them and locked the box.
Ii was not until later that she real
lied what she had done. Oh, If only
she could remember the com binationl
she knew the first number, 16. but
try as she would, she could not recall
she tried various numbers-but it was
useless.
She shrank from the thought Of
having to admit TO Warren that she
had been so careless. Now that things
had gone so smoothly since his return,
she dreaded anything that might an
noy or irritate him.
And she shrank, too. from so often
appearing at a disadvantage. Every
foolish or incapable thing that she
ever did-somehow he always knew
of it. and always in way that made
it seem worse than il really was. And
yet if she did anything exceptionally
well, anything in which she showed
unusually good management or capa-
bility, those things somehow never
came before him.
\ Curious Fatality.
Ever since she had been married il
had been like this. Always she had
appeared to him in worse light than

fore him. or that he did not imme-
diately know il. 1t seemed almost
like a curious fatality.

Of the box, she wanted TO put it off as
long as she could. But she knew she
would need some money the next day,

MEN ORDERED To
GIVE Up CLOTHES
Accused Are Found Not Guilty
But Remain in Jail Because
They Have Nothing to Wear.
Found Garments.

Because Frank Koos and Frank
Tarby were clad in clothes which
they had no right even on being ac-
quilted on a charge Of stealing them,
county officials found themselves in a
quandry Friday afternoon when they
came to turn the two men loose fol-
lowing their acquittal on a charge of
larceny
The men showed that they found
the clothes in a ditch beside the road
where it was presumed they had been
thrown by the thief. They had
promptly donned the new garments
and given their old ones away Fol-
lowing their arrest they continued TO
wear the clothes but when they were
freed Friday the owners Of the clothes
wanted their property. If the late
prisoners complied and restored The
garments they would be in no condi-
ton TO enjoy their freedom while
refusal on their part to restore the
property would not look we'll under
the circumstances. County officials
solved the problem by demanding the
men to jail although there was no
longer a charge against them. They
viii be given clothes Saturday and re-
leased
Special Judge Fred Woodward pre-
sided over the trial which was con-
tinued from Thursday. The defend
ants waived a jury and the judge
heard the case. The two men can
thank theire own testimony entirely
for their freedom. When the state
had finished its case the evidence
against the men, although entirely
circumstantiaL was so strong that a
verdict of guilty seemed probable.
The men told straight forward stories
and apparently were in every respect
truthful. Instead of denying that the
goods were in their possession the
men told how they had found them
on the side of the track and how
they had carried them away.
Both attorneys, Montgomery for
the state and Atty. Elmer Peak for
the defense, made cOnvicing pleas
and Judge Woodward in declaring his
verdict remarked that the case
seemed strong for both sides. He
thought that the So days imprison-
ment was punishment enough for
carrying the goods away If they
found them on the track The men
had already served almost two months
in the county Jail. He added that the
stories told by the defendants were
evidently true as the men did not
have the manner of perjUrers and the
fact that the men seemed to be honest
also Influenced him.
