Home Canning.

Clemson College, S. c., May 10
Every farmer should have small
canning outfit for use in preserving
fruit and vegetables for winter. An
abundance Of canned products OF
this sort adds comfort and health
to the family, and often there Is
enough surplus to give nice little
income. It is seldom that canned
fruits and vegetables Of fine quality
fail to command a good price. With
a good fall garden one does not SO
much feel the need of canned vege-
tables, but, there are a great many
of the tender sorts that will not
grow at this season and must De
preserved in cans Think also of the
number of fruits that may be can
ned. Even where oneahas neglected
to have a good orchai there are IN
most localities an abundance OF
blackberries, blue berries, huckleber-
ries, grapes and cherries growing
wild. In case enough vegetables
have not yet been planted to furnish
a surplus to can, it is good time
row to make up the deficiency. To-
matoes, snap beans, lima beans,
sweet potatoes, and other vegetables
may yet be planted for canning dur
ing thc late summer. Anyone IN
terested in canning should write the

FEWER DOGS WANTED
Pigs VIII Do More For Country.

To the Editor of The State:
In the worldwide effort now being
made not only TO increase but to con-
serve the food supply Of the world
any idea that may even to only d
small extent aid in producing the
desired results should be submitted
for consideration. The following
suggestion may be of some value
not only in the present emergency
but may have permanent good
effects. It is suggested that all
worthless dogs, whether cur or thor
ough-bread-and-meat, be forthwith
abolished. If theresare any statistics
regarding the number of dogs in
South Carolina and In the country at
large they are not available to the
writer, but he is confident that III
the aggregate their name is legion
and not one in a thousand is of any
real value and all of them require
and obtain food that should be de-
voted to some useful purpose. 1t Is
further suggested that for every dog
that is abolished, a pig be substituted.
If this idea appealed to some MIL
lionaire who desired to express his
patriotism in a practical way or If
it was acted upon by some patriotic
society or association appreciable re
suits could no doubt be speeol1y uU-
tanned. AS a starter, say in South
Carolina, only $4,000 would provide
$1,000 for each county which could be
turned over to the Judge OF probate
Or other officer who could spare the
time and who felt disposed to aid no.
only his country bit his county and
for each dog turned in an order to It's
owner could be given on hos raiser
for 81 pig. The hog raiser could
exchange the pig for the order and
present the order to the proper
county officer ard get the 50. Many
a poor person getting a well bred pig
in this way would keep it and raise

It should nestle cozily near the family
porch In a close, comforting, compan-
ionly sort of way as II ever ready
to rest and to inspire by It's beauty
and it's perfume. The seats should
be in just the right places and be
easy, comfortable and inviting. A big
generous crows nest, easily reached
by a little spiral stairway winding
round the trunk Of some favorite tree,
furnishes a rare retree.. on drowsy
summer afternoon. Some seemingly
waste spot where nature has been a
bit rebellious and unconventional can
be converted into a wild garden.
where the ferns grow freely and the
brilliant cardinal flower adds its fine
touch of color, and stepping-stones
zig-zag across the boggy spots.
No country home is complete with
out the picturesque addition that wa
ter gives A fountain and pool IN the
Garden helps a little; tree-lined
brook purling in the afternoon sun
shine or in the cool Of the twilight
hour means more, but the best effect
can be secured often by a pond made
by damming the waters or brook
fed by many springs This gives ex-
panse Of water with possibilities OF
the delight Of a boat lazily moored
to some tree in the shade or the JOY
OF q real swimming pool, cool and
sheltered on the sultriest days.
The grounds of country home
should never suggest limitation-no
sharp abrupt turn where one feels
there is nothing to do but to go back
over the same way. The little gate
at the end of the path opens on some
foot-worn path to the woods; from
the rose-bowered pergola one catches
a glimpse of the pond to be reached
by crossing the little bridge over the
brook; from each successive point
one seems progressively in touch with
all, in a spirit of free companionship
with nature, Of calm and rest and
sweet content, with no thought Of lin
itation. This means the fullest reall-
zation of JOY of the grounds OF a
country home inspired IN their max
ing by the true spirit.

KACKET PALMER
TO DIE IN JUNE
Slayer Of Sergt. Franklin Sentenced
to Death.

The State
Orangeburg, May 10-Mackey Pal
mer was today sentenced by Judge l..
W. Bowman to suffer death by cleo
trocution on June 20 for the murder
Of Policeman H. H. Franklin on
March 9, 1917. His codefendant,
Clinton Kennedy, who was tried on
a charge OF accessory before the fact,
was found guilty with recommends
ton to mercy, which means he will
get life imprisonment. Sentence has
not yet been passed upon Kennedy,
his attorneys having given notice that
they will make motion for new
trial
The trial of the case against Palmer
and Kennedy was begun yesterday.
Kennedy was represented Dy counsel.
Palmer had none, and the court ap-
pointed two able lawyers of the Or
ange5urg bar to defend him. Mackey
Palmer did the shooting that caused
the death of Sergt. H. H. Franklin.
It was proved that Clinton Kennedy,
a negro barber, advised Palmer to
shoot any officer who attempted to
arrest him.
On various occasions prior to the
shooting Of ,Sergt. Franklin, Mackey
Palmer entered and stole money from
the home of Mrs. NJ. C. Dibble, where
he was a servant. After being sus-
pected, he made his escape and was
later arrested in Georgia and brought
back to Orangeburg. He was made
a trusty by the county jailer and he
perfected an escape, taking at the
time magazine pistol, and three
chambers of steel shells, which was
the property of the jailer. 1t was tes-
titled that Palmer spent that night
with Kennedy and that Kennedy
counseled and advised him at that
time what to do in case any one en-
deavored to arrest him. Palmer
made a statement to the sheriff in
the presence of Kennedy that he
would not have killed Sergt. Frank
lin had Kennedy not told him to do
30.
Immediately after sentence Aackey
Palmer was taken to Columbia,
where he will be kept until June ~
when he will be electrocuted under
sentence of the court. Palmer b Il
negro and is about Is years Of age
The court room was l.iled to Ca
pacity with oniookers through the
trial. The verdict Of the Jury was
we'll received and the people of Or
angeburg are glad no lynching took
place in the case and that the law
was allowed to take Its course.

his brush into the color on his pal
cite, held 1T poised in air. He looK-

Constable smiled and nodded. Then
the brush quickly descended IN SID

painting seemed suddenly transform
ed: It glowed with life, the isolated
elements blended in new relations,
and, as If by magic. what Constable
had sought Ia vain was realized and
completed by a single touch OF Turu-
er's brush.
The grounds Of many a country
home. where money has been spent
freely, are vaguely unsatisfying to the
owner, and they require but slight
change by the touch of the genius OF
some expert to transform fhe place.
Sometimes many changes are neces-
sary. many which have been toreseen

their grounds or improvements Of the

in the location Of some element, as
of a garden, or a misiudgment as to
size, form or color. The units may
IN themselves be beautiful but they
do not combine into beauty, for beauty
is largely a matter OF proportion and
relation.
Sometimes the cutting down OF a
single tree may be the Turner stroke
that reveals new beauty in view.
A driveway changed in the direction
of its approach to the house may
seem to add infinitely to sense OF
seclusion and privacy, or winding Its
way sympa.hetically may be made to
give suggestion Of large estate to
grounds comparatively small. At
each turn along the drive the view
is caught from a different angle sug-
gesting ever new charms, all studied
with such care that no thought OF
care Is suggested.
The house and grounds Of coun-
try home should be considered not as
separate pictures. but as single

MARKETING
ASSOCIATIONS TO BE
ORGANIZED

Clemson College, S. c., May 10
The director OF the extension division
is advocating the establishment In
several towns in the State OF cooper :
ative marketing associations for the
nurpose Of marketing the standards
ed farm products Of the farmers. The
plan OF organization Is as follows.
That fifty individuals will sub
scribe $500 each: that the capital
stock will, therefore, be $4,000,
with the provision that the stock
cannot pay over per cent. interest
to the stockholders; that there Will
be no salaried officials other than
the Board of Directors who viii De
paid for their services when attend
ing meetings; that the marketing as
sociation employ a trained market
Tag agent who is familiar with mar
ket conditions and who understands
the standardizing and grading OF
farm products. The marketing agent
viii be the only paid official Of the
organization.
The association will keep on hand
auoh supplies as are necessary tor
the farmers to use in standardlzlng
Their products; that the profit on
these supplies will not exceed 1u
ner cent; that the marketing agent
will at all times instruct the farmers
how to standardize and grade their
products; that the association Will
not buy any product that is not Of
fered in a marketable condition and
has been graded and standardized.
For instance a farmer brings IN
eggs. The association will not buy
the eggs If they are dirty, unwashed'
small and large mixed, Of different
colors and not in cartoons, nor Will
they buy grain for instance unless
the grain has been graded and stan
dardized and put up in a marketable
condition, and this principle will ap-
nly to the handling of all products.
This association will serve two
purposes. First, it will offer the
highest possible price to the farmer
for his products because there will
he very little expense attached to
conducting the business as the stock
can only pay 8 per cent. Second
il will be a means of educating the
farmer. as to how to standardlze anu
grade his products and the necessity
for doing the same.
It will be necessary to employ b
trained marketing agent. 1t would
not be sdyisable to employ a bus
mess man simply because he had
been successful in conducting his
ows business, for there Is an edu-
cational feature connected with this
proposition that requires the en-
blowing of an expert in marketing
Who has given great thought and has
investigated the subject OF grades
cIassifcations and standards.

Displacing the telegraph, the tele-
hone is to be used for dispatching
trains on the entire line Of the
Southern railway system between
Washington and Atlanta, 64s miles.
Between Washington and Spencer,

be organized and this work will be
performed under the jurisdictio. OF

Charlotte.
When this work is completed, the
Southern will have continuous train
dispatching and message circuits be-

these two circuits will also provide a
third or phantom circuit for talking
purposes and a simplex telegraph
circuit between the Offices at Wash

CoNFEREES. FINALLY
ARRIVE AT DECISION
Within Two Weeks After President
Signs Bill, Registration VIII
Begia.

Washington, May 1o.-The long
deadlock of senate and house con-
ferees on the seiectiTe draft military
bill was broken today with agreement
On compromise measure under
which a great war army would De

men between the ages Of 2l and 80,
inclusive.

Roosevelt's proposed volunteer d.
vision for service in France. written
into the bill by the senate and de-
Tended stubbornly by the senate con-
ferees. finally was thrown out On the
insistence of committeeman represent
ing the house. In return the house
yielded to the senate's proposal Tor
prohibition at military posts.
The conference report is expected
to be given approval BY both sensse
and house within 8 few days ana
within two weeks after the president
has affixed his signature registration
of those eligible for conscription Will
be under way tnrougout the coun-
try. Some States already have select
cd their registration boards and the
war department has erected a vas,
and intricate war machine for assign-
ing and organizing the conscr1pts.
They will be assembled at training
camps in September.
Satisfactory to Administration.
The compromise bill is understood
to be generally satisfactory to the al
gninistration and to the army genera
staff, on whose advice the original
measure was framed.
The most imoortart change made
in congress was IN the age limit, fixed
M the staff at 19 to Is, inclusive. The
senate made them 81 to q and che
house 21 and 40. The ages named
in the conference agreement at Il
and 80. inclusive, making the draft
applicable to all men under 81.
Although there has been no direct
authoritive expression from the
White House regarding the Roosevelt
volunteer proposal, administration
opposition has been inferred from the
fact that no provision for volunteers
was contained in the bill as sent to
congress from the war. deoartmenr
With the Roosevelt proposal the
eonfe-ees also threw out senate
amendment under which three reg1-
nents of volunteers could have been
enlisted for service on the Mexican
5o-Ier
The section dealing with exemptions
from draft was rewritten in part BY
ths conference committee and pro-
vision was made for hearings in e1-
e,uption applications before local
civil tribunals with the right Of ap-
peal to a second tribunal and fnall,
to the president.
Two Refused to Sign.
Two of the house conferees refused
to Sign the conference report Rep
resentatfve Anthony OF Kansas would
rot accept It because the Roosevelt
amendment was stricken ont. Repre-

not agree to the prohibition amend
ment, contending that 1t reflected on
