FINE SPIRIT.

The Herald and News sticks to its
slogan, Let the people rule" which
has been announced time and again IN
these columns.
The people have elected E. D. Smith
to succeed himself in the United
States senate. We bow gracefully to
the voice of the people and Mr.. Smith
Shall be our senator too if he will
permit it. There was scarcely ever
any campaign placed upon lower
plane than the oneSwhich mas just con-
cluded. Be it said to the credit to
Senator Smith he kept we'll out of the
filth and mire, but there were others
there to do the work. We hope we
1aey never again have such a cam
,paign in South Carolina.
We take pleasure in quoting the fol-
lowing paragraph from an editorial in
the Columbia State the day following
the election. 1t is in tie right spirit
and just the spirit that should con-
troll all of US at all times. We must
continue to dwell together in the same
State and We had better dwell togeth-
er as brethren all loving their State.
The State says:
"The nomination OF Senator Smith
for second term by a decisive ma
jority over his three opponents is not
a cause for any of the Democrats OF
South Carolina to gloat over any of
their fellows. Hae majority o. the
members of both factions are entirely
sincere and honest in their advocacy
of their respective fayorites and the
duty Of our people is to harmonize
not to accentuate, their differences
AS The State has repeatedly said, all
of US must dwell together in the State
We love and it is the part of com
mon sense to work together for its
progress"
That breathes the right spirit anG
We believe That it is the spirit that
will find expression in the minds and
hearts of very large portion Of
both factions of the party Let US al
work together for the good of South
Carolina. And Let the people rule

spidero Are Not insects.

The spider is not an insect, though
probably nine people out Of ten would
class it under this term. With scor-
pions and mites. spiders form class
in the animal kingdom known as arach-
nida. This name is derived from a
mythical parsonage called Arachne, the
daughter Of a purple dyer of Lydia
who was tabled to have challenged
Minerva to trial Of skill in spinning.
So indignant was the goddess at this
act of boldness tt4at she forthwith
transformed the hapless challenger
into a spider. presumably in order tnat
she might have IL best possible op-
portunity of practicing the art on
which she prided herself so much,
Spiders differ from insects in five main
particulars. Their eyes are simple in
stead of compound. they have eight
legs in place Of six. they do not pass
through the metamorphoses which are
characteristic of insects. they have no
antennae. and their breathing is accom-
pIished by means of organs which COM
bine the functions Of lungs and gills
instead of by tubes peryading their
bodies. These points Of distinction are
sufficient to determine tie fact that It
is impossible to class spiders as insects.

The Newberry Delegation

News of July II, 1914D
News and Courier
Here is an editorial from the Able
vile Medium which ought to strike
home in Charleston:
I'm Newberry the present members
of the legislature have all announced
for reelection. Newberry has one of
the strongest delegates Of any coun-
ty in the State 1t exercises more in
fiuence in legislation than that Of
Spartanburg, though Spartanburg has
three times as many members Of the
house as Newberry. 1t is more power
full than the Charleston delegation,
taoug Charleston has four times as
many Representatives as Newberry.
There's reason.
'Newberry's delegation consists OF
Geo. S. Mower, Arthur Kibler, and c..
T. Wyche These are veteran legisla-
tors of marked ability.
when the counties of the State
send such men to Columbia to repre-
sent them in the legislature, and keep
them there for long years, the county
will be we'll served, and the State
will profit.
"Abbe7ille county has men VINO are
the equal in ability of any. We trust
they will offer for the legislature, thus
giving the people the opportunity to
vote for them.
There is at this time only one can
! didate for the house in Abbeville
county. He is of the type of which we
speak, Abbeville will honor itself in
electing him
The Medium is mistaken as to it's
figures Charleston having only nine
seats in the house of representatives
or three times the number to which
Newberry is entitled; but is it wrong
as to it's deductions?
The next meeting Of the general as
sembly will almost certainly be one of
extraordinary activity. Is the metrop-

RED P0lLEO COWS
AS MILK PRODUCERS

One of the most interesting contests
ever conducted in any country between
breeds is now going ON at the Jean
Duluth stock farm, which is located
ubout nine miles westward from Du-
luth. writes Professor Thomas Shaw
in the National Stockman.
The average results obtained in milk
and butter fat from the two breeds
for the years 1908. 1911 and 1912. i'll
which the records are complete. show
that the Guernsey cows gave 114.1
pounds more milk per COW than the
Red Polls and produced 431 pounds
more butter fat per COW. The Red
Polled heifers produced Al pounds
more milk than the Guernsey heifers.
but the latter produced on the aver
age 27.7 more pounds of butter fat.
One item in the comparison is lack
ing-that is. the beef production. The
demand for the Red Polled males has
been such that none of them have
been grown for beef. But it is not

came from this herd in 1913. 1t has
now to its credit twenty official rec
ords that average 396 pounds Of butter

COW completed her last yearly record
Dec 27. 1913. She gave 13.16O.6
pounds Of milk. which gave GO3.8
pounds of fat. the equivalent Of 724.5
pounds of butter. This record makes
her the champion producer Of the
breed. In four consecutive years she
has produced 1,SO7.6 pounds OF butter
fat, a record that has not been equaIed
by any COW of any breed in Minnesota,
and Minnesota is looked upon as
leading dairy state. In this herd Is
also Jean Duluth Beauty 31125. which
as hcfcr gave 10019.S pounds OF
milk and 1926 pounds Of butter fat
This gives her first place in the
worlds records for Red Polled heifers.
She was bred on the farm. Mr.. George
r. Grout, the manager. states that ten
cows from this herd in the 1913 ad-
vanced registry have 4OO.2 pounds OF
butter fat to their credit.

For Improving All Roads From Back

". G. Hutton in the Farm Progress,
Augustus adding to the great Appian
way until no less than twenty-nine
surprising highways radiated from the

themselves out of the hub deep situa-

PERMANENT ROAD WORK.

II you have any influence in
the kind Of road work done in
your county use your effort to d
have the work done permanently.
Kansas spends much money each
year replacing temporary cul-
verts and bridges and in working
over grades. 1t should be the
practice to make any extensive
improvements or alterations only
after securing the advice Of
competent highway engineer.
The temporary employment of
such an official is quite practical
BILE, and the returns will be many
hundred per cent OH the outlay.
The loss Of bridges and cul-
verts in relocated and graded
road is generally heavy. Most
constructions, even if found in
fairly good condition, are totally
destroyed by removal. A con-
spicuous exception is the cor
rugated iron pipe. When made
from high purity iron these cul-
verts are but slightly affected by
rust and can thus be rightfully
classed as permanent improve
ments, but they are also ideal for
a temporary location. as they
suffer no damage in being dug
out and relaid. Brick, stone or
concrete should be employed only
where the location is fixed for
all time and where also an absO-
lutely rigid foundation can be Sc
cured.-Kansas Farmer.

struggling through excellent roadmak-.
ing material ever since they had the
strength to struggle against anything.
And now Missouri men have banded
themselves together to bring about q
reversal Of masterhood. What has so
long held the upper hand is to be sub
dued and made to serve. Mud is to be
transformed into dirt-and. be it
known. dirt makes good roads.
Mud. so far as its service on the
highways is concerned. is to be ban

into furniture. and they are known
among men as trees no longer: trans

which bears no hint of the beggar. so
why not mud into good roads?
But this transition is not to be the
work of moment nor in response to
the passing of wand over impassa-
ble highways. 1t is to come as re-

At this meeting was organized the

organization which will have for one
Of its chief duties the bettering of all

not dedicated to any special highway

purpose Of educating the people Of the

One of the chief notes on which the

the possibilities of the earth roads of

fact was due to the mishap alluded

the time and did not see his victim
until he had knocked him down and
run over his bicycle.
The wheels OF the machine passed
over the body OF young Schultz with
out injuring him. although a new suit
Of clothing he wore was torn and lac
Grated in consequence. The bicycle
was practically destroyed and new

were almost pulled from his feet
