NEED HAVE NO FEARS
OF DREAD EPIDEMIC
Foot.and.Mouth Disease IL Very Un.
likely to Reach State, Says
Veterinarian.

CLEMSON COLLEGE, Dec. g.
There is very little danger that foot,
and-mouth disease will extend to South
Carolina during the present outbreak.
This statement Is made by DIR. X. o.
Feeley. state veterinarian and head OF
the veterinary division OF Clemson
College, In order to relieve the appre-
tensions O! mnny who have bean writ
Ing to Clemson College for informa-
lion about the disease and the prob
abilities OF its effects, IL any. on the
I'VE stock industry In South Carolina.
DR.. Freeley is OF the opinion that
1t Is safe to say now that there is q
minimum Of likelihood OF the dis
ease reaching South Carolinn during
the present epidemic. He states
that, owing to the excellent work
of the federal bureau Of animal In
1ustry. the quarantine lines have
been rightly drawn. old shipments OF
stock have been traced and precau-
.ionary measures tatefl to the point
where the. men, OF the department.. or
agrlculinre Seem to have the situa-
tion we'll In hand. Owners OF stock
In South Caroline may therefore be
reasonably sure that they will have
no trouble with the dread disease.
From an almost diagonally oppo-
Site angle. however, the fOot-and-.
mouth disease should have an effect
upon the live stock industry In South
Carolina, say the live stock demon
stration agents of Clemson's extern
sion division. The disease and tho
accompanying losses OF .stock and
general uneasiness that Is likely to
prevail In middle western live stock
circles for q tire will be one Of the
causes that will contribute to
1hortage OF meat products next year.
The demand for meat will be COR
'espondingly heavy. The time is
therefore. ideal for the South Caro-
ina farmer to engage more than
,ver before in breeding cattle and /,
hogs.
Clemison's advice to cotton FARM
rs is to grow into live stock.
rather than ."go, into It. 1t is recog-ii
1ized that the process cannot be a
sudden one. At the same time. no
'arn1er will make o. mistake this
winter by raising more hogs than
IN any other year, OF his history. Is,

NURSES WANT
 THE ROMANCE UNFRAMED WOMEN STRIVE TO BELONG TO THE
 RED CROSS.
(By The Associated Press.)


 LONDON, Nov. 23.-Society women are begging the authorities for per mission to go to the front as nurses. In many cases the qualifications of the applicant are small, but she regards being a Red Cross nurse as romantic and fancinating and would go without thinking of the serious side of the matter.
 "Afrectional and emotional nursing" is the way Sir James Crichton-Browne described it in an address before the KensingtOn District Nursing Associ- ation. "There is a good deal of spur ious nursing about this time," he went on to say. "T heard the other day of a fashionable lady who called on a mat ron at a provincial hospital and said: I wish to have a weeks training as a nurse or any terms you like. But cannot give more than a week to it., for want to go to tke front.
 "That sort of thing" said Sir James, "is highly reprehensible, for in no branch of nursing is consummate skill more than in the management of wounds and the wounded. For half baked amateurs to meddle in such matters is to endanger life and limb"

JUNEAU, Nov. 19.-W. R. Rogers, indicted for the killing of N. H. Wix- on, May 23, 1913, went to trial in the district court at two o'clock this after noon on a first degree murder charge. A special venire for forty was issued for the purpose of securing a jury. Attorney o. A. Tucker is conducting the defense.
 The killing of Wixon occurred on Christmas creek mining claim in the Porcupine section back of Haines. There were no eyewitnesses to the tragedy. Self-defense will be the plea of defendant. The coronr's jury ex- onerated Rogers at the time of the inquest.

There are a great many people in Juneau holding stock in the Utah Cop per Company, one of the D. C.: Jack ling Charles M. MacNeill properties. Although the stock went down with a bang when the war broke out, all is not lost, according to the stock author itieS.
 The ability of the company to keep it's costs down even when running, as at present, but 50 per cent of capacity is the all important feature of the rec ently issued report for the September 30 quarter.

Death OF Tom Mathis

A special from Zwolle, La, to the
Shreveport Times under date of Sept.
4, bears the following sad intelligence:
''Tom Mathis, foreman of the local K.
C. S. section crew, was struck by a
locomotive of the Sabine Lumber Com
pany's log train yesterday afternoon,
and injured to such an extent that he
died shortly after reaching town.
1.-THE facts as obtained by your cor
respondent, are that the Sabine Lum-
Der Company's log train was coming
in, over the main line of the K. c. S.
railway with heavy train, Engineer
]. C. Hinson at the throttle. While
coming down steep grade and around
the curve short distance;south of Bay
GU Scie. Mr.. Mathis and his crew were
sighted a short distance ahead, also
headed toward town. Engineer Hin
son blew his whistle, reversed his en-
CINE, put on the emergency brakes and
turned on the sand, in an effort to stop
his train, while Foreman Mathis stop
ped his hand car and made desperate
effort to remove it from the tracks.
Seeing that this was impossible, his
men left the car and sought places of
safety. Mr.. Mathis was still strug-
Cling with the car when the train
struck it.
"The injured man was conveyed to
the Office of DR.. M. Boring, the COM
pany's local physician, where every
thing possible was done for him, but
he lived only few hours, expiring
about 8 o'clock, p. m.
"Mr. Mathis had been here only
about forty-ive days, and was well
liked by those who knew him!
"No blame whatever is attached to
the train crew an account of the un-
fortunate occurance, and why Mr..
Mathis remained on the track and per-
mitted himself to be run over is an un-
explained mystery.
hThe remains were borne this after
noon to Columbia, La, where will be
