DANGER OF MODERATE DRINKING.


Twenty years ago medical science
discovered that the white blood cor
puscles are the guardians of the body,
defending 1t against disease germs. It
has been proved that even alcohol
through Its narcotic effect paralyzes
these defenders and makes them pow
erless to destroy the invading foes
this even after very minute doses Of
alcohol. Moderate drinkers are, 1t is
we'll known. prone to diseases Of the
liver This is because alcohol inter-
feres with its functional duties. Physio-
logical science tells us that the liver
destroys much Of the poisonous waste
matter generated in the body. When
alcohol is taken into the system the
liver, 1t seems, goes to work to elimi-
nate that first The power Of the liver
being limited, some of the other work
is left undone, waste matter returns
into the blood and disease is the re
suit.

SOUTH CAR. FOR EDUCATION.

Columbia, Sept. 10.-The fight fol-
compulsory education has been won
in South Carolina. This is one Of the
significant results of the recent pri-
, mary election.
Richard I. Manning, goVernor-nom-
mate, fayors local option compulsory
education. John G. Clinkscales ia
vored statewide compulsion, and
Mendel L. Smith was in favor of the
township compulsory law. Mr.. Smith
and Mr.. Clinkscales received many
votes and Mr.. Manning has been cleo
ted. There is no doubt as to where the
people of the state stand on educatio a
and the prediction is made that SO
kind of a compulsory law will be
passed at the next session OF the
eral assembly.
Many of the members Of the gen.
eral assembly have been elected on
compulsory education platforms
The time seems ripe in South Caro-
lima for compulsory legislation.
Richard 1. Manning realizes that
he has a big job before him. It is
the biggest job ever tackled by a
governor of this state. He is prepar-
ed for the job and will have the CO.
operation and sympathy of prac-
tically every member Of the house
and senate. Mr.. Manning viii recog-
nize no faction or party, except the
democratic party He is going. to be
the governor of all the people and
there is not man in South Carolina
who will be denied hearing.

FARMER NEEDS CHEAPER MONEY

DR.. H. @. Alexander, president of
the North Carolina Farmers union.
contends that cheap money is the
great need of the farmre, some scheme
by which the farmer can get money
direct from the government, or some
other source, at low rate of interest
While he admits the benefit of the fed
eral reserve bank system in stabilizing
the financial conditions of the country,
he holds that it does NOT meet the i'm
mediate needs of the farmer because
by the time it goes through the hands
OF the national banks, who hold it and
who pay per cent for it, the farmer
can not get the money for less than
eight per cent interest and generally
has to pay more than that for it. With
this view of the situation, he will de-
vote his energies to devising soma
plan or enable the farmer to get mon
ey at a lower rate of interest, both to
meet the present emergency and to
meet the requirements of the future

VIRGINIA SOLVES PROBLEM OF
PROWLING SHEEP-KILLING DOCS
Legislature Makes Owner of Worth
less Dogs Subject to Fine of $50;
Encouraging Sheep Industry.

The State of Virginia at the recent
session Of its legislature has passed a
novel dog law, which it is believed
will enable that State to raise sheep
successfully on a large amount OF
waste land heretofore idle. This law
makes it a misdemeanor punishable bq
a fine of $50 for the owner to allow
his dogs to run at large in the country.
This waste land, while entirely suit
able for sheep raising, was not well
adopted to cattle, for the reason that
winter feed in those districts was too
high to make the wintering of beef
cattle profitable All that stood in the
way of profitable sheep industry was
dogs, which were kept in large num-
bers in the shanty settlements. These
dogs, which were rarely fed at home,
lived on the young game during the
spring and summer and preyed on the
sheep whenever they were not watch
ed, and especially in winter.
The old dog license Jaw merely
meant that dog was commonly So a
year hungrier for sheep. The gem
eral law permitted a sheep owner
whose flock had been ravaged to sue
the owner of the dog, but commonly
the owner owned nothing but dogs and
the sheep farmer could not recover
Moreover, if the sheep owner shot a
stray dog on his premises, the owner
Of the dog could sue the farmer for
damages. The farmers of Virginia
grew tired of having their waste land
idle and finally induced the legislature
pass the accompanying dog law. This
law, when adopted by county, makes
it misdemeanor for the owner of a
dog to allow that dog OF his own pro-
perry unless he is with the dog. In the
case of incorporated villages and
towns the law permits the licensing of
dogs, but makes it a misdemeanor for
them to be alone outside of the incor-
ported limits
The indirect effect of this law is to
allow any farmer to shoot lone dog
on his property. The owner of the
dog, before he can bring suit for dam
ages for the killing of the dog, necessa-
rilly must establish proof that the dog
attlarge and thus subject himself to a
fine up to $50.
Although the law was passed very
recently, number of counties have
signifed their intention of making it a
county rule, and in these counties own
