Near the conclusion OF the "Fertiliz-
CT and Economy Day" meeting in tho
court house on Saturday the follow
ing resolutions were introduced by J..
9. Dunbar and endorsed by those
present:
Whereas. The state cotton ware
house system Is a friend to the agri-
cultural interest of South Carolina.
and will do more to aid the cotton
planter In getting remunerative
prices for the output OF his labor than
any other agency now In existence,
and.
whereas. an effort has been made
In the present session Of our legisla-
ture to repeal the act whereby the sys-
tenn was inaugurated. that 1t might
be destroyed. anu
Whereas. We believe the influence
brought to bear on it's opponents in
the legislature originated with the
cotton spinners and spectators, whose
purpose Is to take the farmers cotton
as IL Ia forced on the market, at ru-
inuous prices, thereby reaping large
profits at his expense;
Therefore. Be II Resolved. That we,
the farmers OF Sumter county now in
session. do indorse the State ware
house system and will i'm the future
give no candidate for the legislature,
whether he be for the upper or low
er branch of that body our support,
unless We know him to be a friend to
the system. and we call upon the
farmers all over the State to stand
with us in the principles herein enun-
ciated.

HOG CHOLERA SPREADING.

Fealey to Plan Campaign Against
Disease.

Columbia, Feb. 13.-Cholera threat
ems many herds OF hogs in South Car
olina, according to w. w. Long. State
agent in charge of the federal farm
demonstration service and director of
the extension work of Clemson COL
lege.
Mr. Long said yesterday:
Il am especially anxious about the
hog cholera situation in this State.
There is more hog cholera now than
there has been for several years. 1t
is matter of great concern to DR..
Fealey, the State veterinarian, and we
propose to have a confere >ce Tuesday
at Clemson college to begin an active
campaign to overcome it. The farm
ers should be exceedingly careful to
see that their herds are not in any
way brought in contact with diseased
animals, and would advise that they
write to the State veterinarian at
Clemson college for instructions as to
how to care for their hogs. so as to
prevent an otbreak Of this terrible
scourge. There is no remedy for hog
cholera. The injection of serum is
simply a preventive and the fact
must not be lost sight Of that i'm
munity from the injection of serum
will last only from three to eight
weeks"

Land Registration.
News and Courier.

News and Courier.
The Torrens land registration sys-
tenn has advanced a step in this State.
Today the house passed the bill pro-
viding for the introduction Of a sys-
tenn along this line beginning in May,
1916. The vote was practically unani-
nous, although many of the members
were frank to say that they did not
fully understand the details and scope
Of the legislation. BY vote of SO to
the bill was ordered to a third read
ing and will go to the senate with the
approval of the house. The bill was
vigorously pressed by it's joint authors,
Messrs. Rogers, of Dillon; Harris, of
Greenville, and Carey, of Pickens.
While there was no pronounced op-
position to the bill, Messrs. Toole, of
Aiken, and Noise, of Sumter, thought
the measure was defective in certain
particulars and that it ought to be
remedied before it's enactment. The
house. however, declined to make any
material amendments except that the
law should not become effective for
a year, which was the suggestion of
Mr.. Cothran, with view of allowing
the statute to go on the books and
next year pass amendments, if these
were necessary, which would give
ample opportunity for everyone to
study the statute.
Under the provisions of the bill
any one desiring to get a certificate
must apply to the Circuit Court, and
after giving notice to all interested
parties and upon a proper showing to
the court, a certificate is issued which
is clear title if the court so decides
up to that point This certificate is
numbered and recorded, and all
mortgages, liens or trusts on the par
ticular piece of property are record
ed upon the same page and in con-
nection with the same numbered GER
tifcate. so that all transactions from
the date of the granting Of the GER
ificate are easily found and must refer
to the particular certificate issued by
the court.
The bill makes it discretionary as
to whether, land owners should Sc
cure such a certificate and there is
nothing mandatory that it should be
secured. Under the terms Of the law
a committee of lawyers in each coun-
ty is to prepare the abstract of title
and secure the certificate from the
court, the idea being that everything
back Of this certificate when it is once
issued is covered by the issuance Of
the certificate granting a clear title
which is fully described in the rec
ord at the time the certificate is au-
thorized by the court 1t is urged that
such a certificate would be much more
readily negotiable and involve a mini
mum Of expense in case of transfer
and subsequent examination Of titles.
