LAST FRENCH SOLDIER

Weeks Action Indicates Allies Plan

,brrespoudence Of the Associated Press.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.
LONDON. February 9.-within the
present week the last French soldier
will leave Belgian soil, and the defense
on this part Of the extended western
battle line will be left in the hands of
the BeIgians and English. This is re-
carried here as an indication that the
allies do not intend to make any for
ward movement In the region Of the
flooded User.
Recently the French brought the
largest part of their African army to
Newport. where it reinforced the
French marines and Alpine chasseurs
holding this gateway to Calais
! With the assistance of the Belgians
st. Georges was captured and some
advance made in the san,l dunes along
the Belgian coast, but 1t Is evident that
| no further advance is likely at this
time in that region.
Some Criticism From Belgians.
While it is felt by the commanders
of the allied forces that the sadly de-
pleted Belgian army. with the assist
ance OF that section of the English
army occupying Belgian soil. can keep
the Germans at bay. the action of the
French IN wlthofaWins tneir troops mas
met with some criticism from Belgian
officers, who feel that they are again
being left to bear the brunt of the
most disagreeable fighting on the west
ern line.
They lack enough men to give their
soldiers frequent relief from the
trenches, where, on account of the
aearness of the water TO the surface.
conditions are worse than anywhere
else on the battle line. Strategic ne

fare at court still simpler.
As early as November the eo-called

tatoes. usually served in their Jackets.
Often, however. only cold meat and po-

fare is of spartan simplicity. The
chief change consists in thick soup.

total must be added inconvenience,
encouragement, and the impossibility
of improving pure-bred animals to
improve the grade of the herd.
At the end of 1914 there were 81
dipping watts in operation in South
Carolina. These were all provided by
the stock owners, for tie federal
authorities are prohibited by act of
congress from spending money for the
construction of watts or for the pur-
chase of materials for dipping, except
for experimental purposes. The in
spectors,~ however, can aid in the edu-
cation and demonstration work, as
we'll as in the supervision of the dip
ping. In South Carolina during 1914
there were veterinary inspectors and
12 lay agents engaged in the work.

How To Eradicate
All SuperfIuous Hair

The best means I have ever found
for removing all signs of disfguring
growths of hair on the face, neck,
arms or hands is a new preparation
called Mrs. Osgood's Wonder. I have
recommended it in thousands of cases
and I know personally of its ability
to Danish every hair forever. It can
not injure the skin or complexion and

These figures, however, do not show
the actual cost per mile of freeing
the State from ticks. Much of the
work has been of an educational char
acter and it's results are not yet ap-
parent in the release of territory. With
additional experience and additional
knowledge on the part of the people
of the great annual losses caused by
cattle ticks, the work should go on
more rapidly in the future. 1t is es-
timated that with sufficient funds two
or three years should see the last
tick in South Carolina.
That this will be followed by a tre-
mendous boom in stock raising in the
State can hardly be doubted. AS one
Marlboro county man wrote, "Tick
eradication has put new life into cat
tie raising in our country" Another
man in Greenwood county wrote, Il
lost $4O0 or $500 in the ticks myself
before l knew what it was. The money
spent for tick eradication is money
we'll spent Cattle that sold here for
8 or 4 cents on foot now sell for from
5 to 1-2 cents right here on the
farm Such estimates Of the losses
from ticks are probably under, rather
than over the truth. Some time ago
the department of agriculture sent a
number of representative. stockbreed-
ing farmers a series of questions on
the effect of tick eradication in their
neighborhood. From these replies it
appears that the average milk produc-
tion increased about IA Of the total
yield; that the weight was increased
about 1-5; that the loss from Texas
fever had been totally stopped; and
that the quality of the cattle had i'm
proved about IA One Louisiana far
mer wrote that his herd of cattle was
worth double what it mad been before
the ticks were eradicated. In addi-
tion to these facts, it. must be remem-
bered that the hide of a ticky animal
is on the average, worth $126 less
than that of healthy one Thus, the
tick costs the cattle owner money in
a large number of ways, and to this

Beaufort, June 24.-C-arles Handy,
only son of Mr.. and Mrs. c. H. Handy
of Cat Island, near Beaufort, was
instantly killed last night about $50
o'clock by being thrown from his
motorcycle. The young man was only
20 years of age His father is prom
inent trucker of this county, having a
large plantation on one Of the neigh
boring islands.
1t seems that the young man was
coming to Beaufort from Port Royal,
town five miles away On his ma
chine and met a buggy containing
two negroes, and in trying to pass
them lost control of his motorcycle
and was thrown against the shaft Of
the vehicle, one end of the pole pierre
ing mis- right side. There were no
witnesses to the accident except
these negroes, but II is tnougnt Inat
it was entirely an accident. Some
passersby a short while after brought
the news to town and a physician
was hurriedly rushed to the scene, but
it was too late, and tine body was
brought to town.
A particularly sad feature of the
case is that neither of the young
mans parents is here, both being in
Baltimore on account o. the illness
of the mother.
The funeral arrangements will not
be made until tie father arrives.
Mr.. Handy is survived by his par
ents and two sisters, Misses Indiana
and Minerva Handy.

PROGRESS IN TICK ERADICATION
More Advance Made Last Year Than
at Any Time Since CamIlign
Began.

Washington, June 28.-Better prog
ress was made in tick eradication in
South Carolina during 1914 than at
any other time since the work began
in 1902, according to information re-
Gently compiled by the department Of
agriculture. Two thousand and fifty
three square miles of territory were
released last year, making total OF
10,668 in the State. Nearly 10000
square miles remained at that time
infected, but in March of this year, the
counties of Chesterfield, Marion, and
Florence were freed.
This progress, it is said, has been
made possible by the very satisfactory
cooperation between the federal de-
partment and the State authorities.
State funds have been furnished by
appropriations by the legislature. Tue
appropriation in 1915 was the same as
that for 1914, viz $4,000. The coun-
ties, however, do not contribute any,
thing directly, although in 1913, ST.
083 was contributed by individuals.
The following table shows the amount
of money expended by the federal gov
ernment, and the State since the work
began:

Notes From Nashville.

By agreement the teachers at the
various summer schools are to ex-
change ideas and pass them on to the
folks at home through the newspa-
pers. To Peabody college for teach
ers, Nashville, Tennessee, came on
Wednesday of last week Miss Eliza
beth Neel,. Miss Ola Brown, Mr.. c. M.
Wilson and Miss Sadie Goggans. The
trip out was uneventful except for the
mirth and acquaintance with other
teachers WHO were going to Chicago
university.
To be met at the station by Mrs.
Browne and her daughter was a great
er treat than we expected. Misses
Brown and Neel were placed in the
girls boarding hall, Wesley, and Mr..
Wilson went to Kissan hall. Miss Cog
gans went to the little bungalow
where Mrs. Hettye S., Browne, Miss
Sibyl Browne and she are house
keeping. We Newberry people usually
meet at lunch at the college cafeteria
N the halls, at classes, and in the dor
lnitories many pleasant acQuaintances
lave been formed especially with
South Carolinians. On the faculty
here are many from our State, DR..
L. P. Chamberlayne and DR.. Josiah
Morse of the University of South Car
olina, DR.. Henry N. Snyder president
of Woford college who made the first
talk at open hour, Miss Sibyl Browne,
student at Teachers college, New
York, and Mrs. Hetty S. Browne, prin-
cipal farm school, Winthrop college,
whom many people will remember
from her visit to Newberry county
Teachers Institute last year.
From those and many other instruc-
tors the four Newberrians had to
select three teachers. ALI of US took
Mr.. w. K. T&te's course in teaching

Neel have chosen also manual train
ing because they realize that the coun-
try child especially should be trained
to use mind and hand. Mr. Wilson
seems especially interested in the
study of agriculture which is certainly
of vital importance to rural people.
Miss Goggans has elected English
grammar because it is the subject that
is least understood in the schools OF
our county. The observation Of Mrs
Brownies country school reveals more
clearly every day that country chill
dren should get in school the funda-
mental subjects through their activi-
ties that center in the home and the
farm garden. In Mr.. Tate's class
where a dozen States are represented
by superintendents, supervisors and
teachers the value of a county schoo,
map with district lines surveyed was
discussed as real economy; for the
