roots are good for the uses to which
white potatoes and sweet potatoes are
put. When the government brought
the dasheen over from the Philip

Carolina the dasheen has been a table
friend for nearly 200 years. under the
name of "tanyah."

The newly elected mayor of Ander-

Odorless Cabbage

Some time ago attention was called
to Oregon's crop of the "beetatoe," a
combination OF the beet and potato,
said to be very prolific and Of deli
cious flavor. Now comes the news
that the United States government,
department Of agriculture. has i'm
ported from China q new variety of
cabbage which has wonderful possi-
bilities.
The new cabbage Is not sown until
the first week In August in allowing the
grower time to first raise a crop of
spinach or snap beans on the same
soil. but 1t heads. in November. the
came as ordinary cabbage. 1t is not
rs solid as ordinary cabbage, but the
very delicacy of Its leaves makes II
better for cold slaw and sauerkraut
and 1t is entirely odorless while be-
ing cooked. That sounds mighty
good. We hope that the government
can propagate the production OF the
odorless cabbage without a stink be-
Ing raised by the politicians.
Some time ago there appeared a
news item from st. Paul stating that

quently than older persons. All that
has been learned about the modes of
transmission of certain diseases, no.

taking OF large number Of children
out from their restricted family and
neighborhood relationships and
bringing them into contact with a
much larger group will Increase the
opportunities for infection.
AS regards opportunities for infec-
ton furnished by the school, 1t must
be admitted that while the slate, the
common drinking cup and the roller
towel are fast passing away, suffl-
cient facilities for the transfer OF
disease germs still exist In the friend

And here is dispatch from Utah
showing how that state was helped:

twO-thirds Of the cost of the erec-

that even the densest legislator could

The Inheritance Tax

As far aS we know. the writer was
the only editor in the state who two
years ago appealed for the inheri-
tance tax bill. II came very nearly
being made Il law. There was a gen
eral misunderstanding OF this bill.
just as there has been on the bill to
adopt the Torreons system OF land reg
istration TO this state.
The inheritance tax is almost iden-
teal In principle with the income tax
and is absolutely democratic. 1t
would work a hardship on no one. for.
under the exemptions under the Rem
bert bill. il would require an estate
Of $4,000 to $4,000 before the cx-
cmpliOn wonld apply. And the tax
would bc y mere tritie, perhaps 81 on
the 81 900.
While the tax would IN a way guar

principal object would be to place a
tax on bonds end securities escaping

the bonds safe. but gets no insur-
ance premium.
This tax would in the next % years

Ing any unjust taxation upon persons,

There Is liquor in Anderson county,
but 1t is sold in such q sneaking way
that the officers Of the law cannot
keep 1t down. We believe that the
sheriff OF the county Is a man who
appreciates the responsibility Of his
Office and will break up Illicit liquor
handling in Anderson. whenever he
gets his hands on the violators. But
that is not always an easy thing to do
and requires time and patience, and

There was a big crowd in Anderson
yesterday. in fact there have been
big crowds here all through the
weeks OF court. Under the old dis
pensary there were more arrests for
drunkenness In day than there are
now In a month. And the trouble
about the dtspensary was that so
many would buy their bottles and
wait until they got out into the coun-
