To Keep Hogs Healthy.

No one should attempt to raise
hogs unless he is willing to give
them good feed, good care, and pro-
tect them in every way possible
from disease. Worms, hog cholera,
lice, and canker sore mouth kill
large numbers of hogs throughout
the south, especially little pigs.
To prevent worms, keep the fol
lowing charcoal mixture before the
pigs all the time:
Charcoal, l bushel.
Hardwood ashes, bushel.
Salt, 8 pounds.
Air slaked lime, s pounds.
Sulphur, 4 pounds.
PuIverized copperas, 9 pounds:
First mix the lime, salt and sui
phur thoroughly, and then mix in
the charcoal and ashes. Dissolve the
copperas in two quarts Of hot water
and sprinkle it over the whole mass,
mixing thoroughly. Store this in a
barrel under shelter, and keep some
of it in an open shallow box where
the hogs can get it AS they wish.

German Cruiser Entrapped.

1t appears that the German Cruiser
Prince Eitel Friedrich is entrapped at
Newport News, where she put in a
week ago for repairs. The report is
current that there are several English
warships off the Virginia coast await
ing the departure of the German ves-
sci, just as the American fleet awaited
the departure of the Spanish fleet
from Santiago harbor. While, of course,
we are all neutrals, norminally, if not
neutrals after the Woodrow Wilson
type, yet since this same German
cruiser unjustifably destroyed the
William P. Frye, an American sailing
vessel, we would secretly rejoice to
hear that the English dogs of war had
devoured the German cruiser.
Furthermore, it seems rather strange
that we should allow German vessel,
or even one from the Allies, to come
into one of our ports for repairs and
depart at will after confessing to hav-
ing sunk one of our merchantmen. 1t
appears to us that it would be meet
and proper for this government to hold
the Eitel until proper reparation has
been made for the unwarranted de-
struction of the William P. Frye.

Should Outlaw Pistols.

Of the scores upon scores of homi-
cides that occur annually in South Car
olina, it would be interesting to know
what per cent. of the mortal wounds
are inflicted by pistols. We do not be-
lieve it would be an extravagant esti-
mate to say that at least rs per cent.
of homicides result from pistol wounds.
When the prohibition law is ratified by
the people, reducing to minimum the
carrying of the bottle in the hip-pocket,
would it not be well to enact pro.
hibitory law so drastic in terms with
reference to the carrying of pistols on
the person that this death-dealing
weapon will always he left at home, il
