The report says that home economics
are now recognized course of study In
all agricultural colleges 10 which wo-
men are admitted. Thirty-one state
universities offer regular courses in
home economies, and most Of the pri-
vate and deuominatioual colleges and
universities now offer similar mstruc-
tion. So important has the subject be-
come in state public school systems
during the past two or three years that
now practically every state normal
school has course in home economies
for prospective schooltcachcrS.
Summer schools are coming to play
an especially important part in home
economics teaching. The bureau Of ed.
ucation received announcements from
1872 schools that were Offering courses
during the summer of 1911; in 1918 the
number reporting had increased TO
go, and n still further increase Is al
ready assured for 1916.

In cooking ana suggestions for the
teaching of sewing in the grades, with
lists of equipment and references for

In home economics has been prepared

ENROLMENT FfETY LESS.
Little Decrease in Club Enrolment
Since 1914

A comparison of the total club en-
rollment for Sumter county for 1916
with that OF 1914 shows a decrease of
fifty names on the club rolls. In view
OF the fact that it was generally re-
ported that the enrolment this year
would not be as heavy as in 1914, this
shows very small decrease for sum
ter county
In the city the enrolment in each
club was increased, while in the ru-
raj precincts fourteen clubs had a de-
creased enrolment, while seven clubs
had an enrolment larger than two
years ago. A comparison of the en-
rOllment of 1916 with that Of 1914

EXTENDING WAREHOUSE.

Mr.. c. G. Rowland is enlarging his
cotton warehouse on the eastern edge
OF the city. adding four partitions to
1t, each one Of which will hold be-
tween 1000 and 1900 bales of cotton.
With the additions which are now well
under wav. the warehouse will be
capable of holding about $500 bales
OF cotton. With the additions which
are being made and further additions
which are contemplated in the future
the warehouse will gradually be en-
iarged' to house $4,000 to $4,000 bales
of cotton.
The construction of this warehouse
and others I'm the city will no doubt

storage to Sumter from surrounding

ANTIQUITY OF THE HOG.

The two most important and most
intimately associated products of In-
diana are corn and hogs. A French
statistician with a newly sharpened
pencil and sufficient leisure once fig
ured out that the product Of single
SOW with only six young at time will
amount in ten generations to about
6,500,000. or course. he left hog chol-
era and other diseases out of the cal
culation. The Chinese claim to have
bred and domesticated the hog 1000
years before the Christian era. The
ancient Egyptians knew the hog, and
this animal is depicted on their monu-
ments. The use OF the meat Of the
hog was prohibited by the Jews, as It
was considered that in hot countries
It produced skin diseases, says Indi-
annapolis News. The Moslems under
Mohammedan law are also prohibited
from using pork. The hog was un-
known in America until introduced
from Europe by the early navigators.
In the South American forests are
great droves of wild hogs, the descend
ants of hogs brought over by the
Spaniards. When it is taken into ac-
count that the ordinary female swine
will produce twice every year, and
usually eight to twelve at birth, one
cannot help but wonder that the mar
ket price should be as great as 1t is.

A portable hammer for use in drill
ing holes in concrete, brick or stone
or for removing scales, paint or rust
from tubes or plates, has recently been
devised which uses magnetic clutch
to obtain the striking action. The ap-
paratus consists of hollow sleeve
about which is the magnet winding;
the ends of the sleeve form the poles
Of the magnet. A loose plunger oper-
ates within the sleeve. The center of
the sleeves is largely cut away and
the plunger normally occupies posi-
ton spanning this center opening.
BY means of motor the sleeve is
reciprocated, thereby throwing the
plunger back and forth by means of
the magnetic coupling Of the two.
