An old Glamorganshire farmer,
weIl-knOwn for his philanthropic
.propensities, was lacking somewhat

local MethOdists to subscribe towards
a new chandelier for the chapel, he
thrust his hand into his pocket with
a goOd-natured remark, and, pulling
tout a sovereign, replied:

s'It is an ill wind that blows no
one any good," and, although the
great war is too terrible to contem-
plate in it's fullness, if it has driven
an economic fact home to the South,
it has given us some benefit in return
for the loss it has caused in our cot
ton crop. The Manufacturers Rec
ord, in it's last weeks issue, says
that the percentage in number OF
hogs in South Carolina is 120, com
pared with 100 in 1914, at the same
date, September first. This is not
only interesting, but is cause for ]u'
bilance. South Carolina has been IN
the habit for years and years Of send

can be raised right here at home, ano
it has remained for great Worlc
war to impress this on the State with
enough force to cause the people tt

We wonder how many hunters
know the amount of game the laws
allow for days sport. The follow
ing is the number allowed in this
State: Five deer in a season; 25
quail (partridges), two wild turkeys,
25 doves, IL woodcock a day. The
fellow who boasts of killing hun
dred doves in single days shooting
perhaps does not know that he has
violated the States game laws
that is if he really. bagged that
number. Which reminds one of the
Joke about the fellow who bOasted to
a stranger. that he had killed $50
quail that day. Said the stranger
"Guess you don't know who you are
talking to. I am the State game
warden, and it is against the law to
bag more than Is quail in one day.

shots into his body as he crossed the

to his own home before he gave way

Mrs. Godfrey testified that she had
broken a gun belonging to her hus-

keep him from killing himself with
it. She says she has no idea why
her husband should have wanted to
kill Hanna, unless it was because he
was in debt to him.

COTTON WAREHOUSE LAW.
Manning and McLaurin Working To-
eether to Strengthen Law.

gether to strengthen LAW
Columbia, S. c., Sept 25.-Gover'
nor Manning and Warehouse Com
missioner McLaurin, held lengthy
conference in the governors office a
few days ago, discussing the ad-
vantages of the State warehouse sys-
tenn and the legislation necessary to
perfect the law governing it. . No
statement was given out after the
conference, but it was learned that
both Governor Manning and Commits
sioner McLaurin are agreed that GER
tain defects in the law should be
remedied and that there was prac-
tically complete agreement between
the governor and the warehouse com
missioner as to what is best to be
done in perfecting this law that
means so much to the cotton produc-
ing interests of South Carolina. 1t
is likely that Governor Manning
and Commissioner >>McLaurin will
hold frequent conferences on. this
matter before the legislature meets
in January and the results of these
conferences will probably be en-
braced in message from the COVER
nor to the legislature during the
early cart of the next session.
The following editorial from the
Yorkville Enquirer of September Fl
refers to this subject:
GAS result of a conference be-
tween Governor Manning and Ware
house Commissioner John L-McLau-
rim, it develops that Governor Man
ming is not secretly hostile to the
State warehouse system, as was le-
ultimately deduced from published
remarks recently attributed to him.
1t is quite clear that if there should
be regulation providing that mana
gers of State warehouses should be
absolutely disinterested parties,
neither owners of the warehouses
nor of the cotton stored therein,
there could easily develop a situation
very different from that under
which all present progress has been
made. But from the reports of the
conference referred to it appears that
the governor is most sincerely So
licitous of developing the warehouse
system along lines that will work to
the interest of the producer of the
cotton first, and the public general
ly second. The conference referred
to-, we understand, developed that
there was practically complete agree
| ment between Mr.. McLaurin and Mr.
Manning as to what shall be done
| and the outlook is that such recon-
mendations as the governor shall see
proper to make to the general as
sembly with regard to improving and
strengthening the warehouse system
will be made only after complete
agreement between the governor anc
the warehouse commissioner.
