ANIMAL HOSPITALS ON FARMS
Quarantine Place Should Be Clean and
comfortahle-Many Young Pigs or
Calves Can Be Saved.

Every farm should have an animal
hospital, where really sick animals
can be cared for and nursed back to
health and where those suspected OF
having some disease or any "off color"
In any way may be put away from the
balance of the herds and focks.
There are many reasons for having
such place. First, there is the con-
troll and check OF contagious diseases
that might be accomplished by
promptly isolating the first prospect
and taking vigorous preventive meas
ures with the balance. Thus many
young pigs or calves that get "a bit off
feed" continue to decline if kept with
the balance Of the herd because OF
their inability to rustic their share
with their healthy, husky mates. If
such are put by themselves and given
special care and food for few days
they are soon back to normal and 90
on without serious setback.
This quarantine place should be
shed or building that is light, clean
and comfortable, and one that can be
thoroughly disinfected. It should be
apart from other buildings and so sit
uated that animals other than those
quarantined cannot have access to it
The control of one outbreak Of dis
ease or the added gains on few
yoang animals will pay for such a

TIE STATE WAREHOUSE,

Last October, the legislature,
called an extra session to furn-
ish relief to the farmers because
OF the ruinously low price of cot
ton passed the State warehouse
bill to enable the farmer to hold
his cotton for a better price.
After emasculating the origi-
nal bill, and appropriating in
sufficient funds to carry out the
provisions of even that compro-
mise with corporate greed and
political hatred-they elected
the father of the original and
better bill, John L. McLaurin,
State warehouse Commissioner.
They expected McLaurin with
insufficient funds-lack of knowl
edge on the part of the farmers
and hostility of banks and cor.
porate warehouses-to make a
dismal failure, so it could be re-
pealed at next regular session.
and McLaurin and the farmers
both got rid of.
McLaurin fooled the whole
bunch, he put the warehouse
system into successful opera.
tion, and the low country farm
ers who benefited by it stuck to
him. When the legislature at
tempted to repeal this, the only
piece of constructive legislation
for the farmers benefit that has
been enacted for twenty years
it cot too hot for them and they
turned it loose p. d. q.
The Commissioner has about
fifty State warehouses in opera
tion-mostly in the low country
and has secured thousands Of
dollars for farmers at 6 per cent
loans on State warehouse GER
tifcates.
But our people up here, don't
know about these State ware
houses and how to get one, and

PRICES FOR THE BEGINNER
Hardly to Be Expected That He viii

II you are a beginner In the poultry
business, you must not expect to sell
your breeding birds for what you gave
for them.
The man you bought from, his repu-
tation, the prizes he has won, the ad-
yertising he does. must count against
you until you have won out as he has
won.
If you have paid $40 for your breed
ing bird, then half that amount is
enough for the beginner to ask. II

will be enough for the present. Be-

ginia justice?" The law has
been sinned against in a most
inexcusable fashion. The peo-
pie who made the laws against
murder and against interfering
with the administration of JUS
tice have seen a small body Of
men treat these laws as if they
not one scintilla Of re.
spect. The enormity of the
crime against the State is dis
tressing, and provocative of an.
ger. Good men want to see JUS
tice done. but they want the law
acting through regularly con-
stituted courts and accepted
medium, to avenge itself. There
is no desire for violence, which
is evil, but there is a very de,
termined desire that this blot
upon the name of the State be
efaced as far as may be by a
prosecution of the guilty men.
In the number of dead men,
in the nature Of the crime laid
at the prisoners door in the
picturesquesness of surround,
ings and of participants, the
killing at Winnsboro differs from
the killing at Hillsville, Virgin
ia. But otherwise the two cas-
es are similar. The principle
which urged the Virginia courts
on to the administration of jus.
tice against the notorious AT
lens, now is crying aloud to the
courts Of South Carolina to
arise and do their duty. The
test is at hand. Have the jur-
ors the courage and conscience
to act as they think they should?
some may say that this is as
|suming the guilt of men before
proving it. This is a technical.
|ity in this case. for all Of US
know very well that somebody
lis guilty. Sheriff Hood did not
start it. Neither did any other
officers OF the law. But some.
body did start it, and several
civilians took part therein. 1t
is a self-evident fact that there
is guilt somewhere. If our ma.
chinery of justice is worthy the
trust reposed in it, strenuous
efforts will be made to locate
the guilty,
Sheriff Hood. a man of reput-
ed and proved bravery is dead.
The killing of this official, whose
death was a patriotic as that of
any soldier on Bunker Hill. at
New Orleans, at the Wilderness
at Gettysburg or at SSantiago-
does not represent merely the
Staying Of an individual. It is
more serious than an inexcus
able killing of a private citizen.
In his body was reposed the
power of law.-that law made
by the people, and that power
reposed in him by the people.
The shots fred at him were

viii such an outrage be for
got? We do not know who is
guilty. But what we wish to
see is a positive effort to locate
the offending parties, and to con
yict them. Is this malice? We
think not. What protection
have we if our laws be left in
the dust for the reckless ones to
trample upon? Only on an ideal
basisc can we afford to acquiesce
passively in an act of lawless-
ness. But we are far from the
ideal, as the Winnsboro tragedy
