nance which was defeated yesterday
afternoon because the four votes
nee essary TO pass a regulation of that
kind could not be mustered.
Mayor Royal and Commissioner
Gorgas of course, voted against the
measure, the mayor taking the stand
that property owners on section of
the street had petitioned against the
closing of the highway.
The mayor persisted in his stand
despite the fact that City Solicitor ID.
S. SeitZ explained on the floor of
Council a few weeks ago that the
petitioners nor any other property
owners can legally expect or claim
damages as the city is at liberty to
vacate any street 1t sees At. The
solicitor had taken especial pains to
fortify his stand on the subject be-
cause Commissioner Taylor had been
particularly anxious to learn the
legal status he declared.
The Clark act however requires at
least four votes to pass a grading
measure. Consequently for the first
time in the history of the new govern
ment the minority of the '3 to q
Council won out.
While missioner Taylor declined
to discuss his future action, it is said
that he will have the new measure
prepared this week.
Only three votes are necessary to
pass an ordinance to strike street

safe to allow him to live In addi-
ton, DR.. Hornaday said Gunda had
refused food for several days and for
the first time during the weary months
it has been necessary to keep the big
brute chained up, 1t was apparent that
Gunda was suffering.
Little Old Lady, Mourns
Gunda was killed, and little old
lady from the Peabody Home cried all
day because Gunda, murderous and
bloodthirsty in the presence of his
keepers, could caress her no more.
She is known as the Little Old Lady
of the Zoo" this bent, white haired
person whom Gunda loved. For two
years the giant elephant had been
waiting for a chance to gore his trunk
through one of his keepers Yet, dur
ing that time, he never failed to curl
his trunk affectionately about the
dropping shoulders of 85-year-old Mrs
Julia Inglesby Jansen whenever she
visited him.
Now he has gone up to meet Ivan
the brown bear, and Flip, my pet wal
rus" Mrs. Jansen sobbed.
He loved sugar" said Mrs Jansen
reminiscently. When he was younger
he and his keeper would saunter over
to the restaurant for little sweetmeats
Three years ago | told him in advance
about my birthday party, and the fact
that l was going to make all the ele-
plants a present of big chunks of
sugar. What do you think he did &?
He actually told Lazy Sultana and
Teddy what was going to happen,
and they were all waiting for me when
got there.
"He was my friend. What he need
ed was petting and an encouraging
word occasionally. When the summer
months came on he went almost crazy.
But he always loved me and IL
loved him So"
Her voice broke into a wall. She
struggled feebly out In the open for a
last view of the giant elephant, but
she was refused admittance to the
great room where only pile of huge
bones, two or three tons of blackening
meat and can of blood showed what
Gunda had once been.

DO NOT LAY.BY TOO SOON.
Cotton Should Receive Shallow
Cultivation Throughout Growth.

tits wrong to lay-by cotton at an
early date, though many farmers
seem to wish to do that very thing.
Cotton should be cultivated until
many bolls are mature and to lay
by the crop a considerable time be-
fore maturity is to take chances of
suffering heavily from drought.
Shallow cultivation is one of the
farmers most effective ways of saw
ing moisture in his soil. 1t puts dust
blanket over the soil and the mois-
ture is unable to evaporate through
this dust blanket. The blanket, or
mulch, is destroyed when the ground
has baked hard or when it rains and
it must be removed by cultivating
after every rain.
There is no wisdom in leaving cot
ton to shift for itself during the lat
ter part of its growth. If cultiva-
ton stops and the crop is laid-by,
the soil may lose its moisture, a
drought may follow, and the cotton
will suffer.
Clemson College is advising shall
low cultivation of cotton until ma
turity, to prevent loss of moisture
and to help to prevent the fruit
from falling.

May Ask President for Confer.

Plans for marketing the cotton
CROP of the South were discussed at
ar informal conference in Columbia
last Saturday.
The prospects for the South in
the coming crop year are regarded
with optimism" said one of the Off
cials attending the conference, pro-
vided the United States can clear up
with satisfaction certain differences
of opinion between this country and
England over the embargo placed
upon cotton being shipped through
the neutral ports, and provided far
ther the proper support is given by
the regional reserve bank system in
financing the new crop.
AT Lever, member Of Congress
and chairman of the agricultural
committee of the House, acted as
chairman of the meeting. MIR Lever,
Commissioner Watson and T B Stack
house were appointed a committee
to prepare letter to be presented
to President Wilson, expressing the
sentiment of the conference on the
cotton question. MIR Lever will ask
President Wilson for conference
on the situation.
Among those attending the con-
ference were: A F Lever, Commits
sioner Watson, president of the
Southern Cotton congress; Wade
Stackhouse, M D, of Dillon, presi'
dent of the South Carolina Cotton
congress, j Arthur Banks of Calhoun
county, R M Cooper of Wisacky, I
B Stackhouse of Columbia, Walter B
Sullivan of Columbia and John L
McLaurin, State warehouse COM
missioner. William Banks, editor
of The Columbia Record, was elect
ed secretary of the conference.
After the meeting the following
statement was issued:
In view of the fact that the lack
of concert of action might cause a
diversity of views and an attendant
unnecessary depression of feeling
reflected subsequently in the price
it was decided to issue a public state
ment that the interests of the cotton
farmers will be looked after with
the closest attention during the next
few weeks, and if matters do not
shape properly, there will be call
upon the people for an expression in
another form.

"SchooI Farm" Idea Good One

We wish that the teachers, patrons
and committeeman of every school
in the South would consider the
school farm idea. We are convinced
that in thousands and thousands of
schools such school farm could be
established to the great benefit of
the community. The school farm -
which is usually about four acres in
size-has three advantages:
l. 1t aids in teaching agriculture
by furnishing practical demonstra-
ton work.
2. 1t provides funds for the better
support of the school, the cotton, to-.
Eacco, peanuts, or whatever crop is
raised on the land, being sold and
the money put into the school treas
ury.
3. Last, but not not least, the
school quickens and develops the
community spirit. The patrons who
come together to do the work get a
new sense of their oneness and de-
velop an increased sense of comrade-
ship and neighborliness.
1t is now too late to do much with
the school farm idea this year and
we only regret that we neglected to
emphasize the matter earlier in the
season. Next year we hope to begin
advocating the plan in ample time
to get it started in many new COM
munl,ies. The United States Bureau
of Education, Washington, d Z, has
published one or more interesting
bulletins on the subject which we
commend to those interested.-He
