A good disinfecting spray Is made
at home in this way: In one gallon OF
kerosene dissolve one pound Of nap
thaline flakes. Let it stand for day
or SO before using, giving it a good
shake from time to time. A box paint
ed on the inside with this may be used
to put lice infected fowls in, covered
with burlap cover, and left for
awhile. This is a good treatment to
give a turkey hen when taken from
the nest and before she is to be shut
up with her brood, to scatter trouble
over them. She may be kept IN for
eighteen or twenty minutes.

GROWING SiIaae Corn.

Although planting corn four inches
apart in the row for silage has given
the greater yields, the Ohio agricul-
tural experiment station recommends
spacing the plants ten inches apart be-,
cause Of greater convenience In han
ding the crop. AS a five year average
the four inch spacing has yielded
about two tons Of green corn per acre
more than the thinner planting, but
the stalks are often so slender that
they fall easily In storms and are diff
cult to harvest when so crowded.

Chicks In Summer.

Placed on a fresh range, chicks will
find bugs and worms and require less
feed. The edge Of the cornfield is an
ideal place for summer chicks. Here
are some essentials for making summer
chicks grow well: Provide shade. Put
the brooder or coop under tree or else
make small artificial shade. Spade
the ground under the sunshade to give
the chicks place to shuttle.

SENTIMENT IN GERMANY

Bcrne, Oct. 31.-Signicant as to
the spirit that prevails in some cir
cles in Germany is the latest issue of
the koenische Vodkszeitung, always
supporter of the claim that the Ger
man people are behind the annexa-
tionists and want no peace but one
bought with the sword. 1t says:
eff one rides on German railroads,
if one goes to the cafes and public
places of the big cities where one
meets our soldiers coming from or
going to the field, one can hear again
and again words and sentences from
the socialistic press that actually are
great danger for the determination
to hold out, for the unity and unani-
nifty in the army and behind the
and to see it through
d "In all these phrases of the social
democratic press there recurs over
and over again the one that the war
is being conducted only for the big
fellows that those who wish for our
fatherland an honorable peace that
shall assure future development are
paid by the big industrials' or 'are
serving capitalistic interests that the
'annexationists' alone are responsible
for the third year of war and posi-
bly, the coming war winter. All the
ISLANDERS circulated 10 supernuity
about war makers and sannexation-
lists are bobbing up again"

OAKDALE COMMUNITY FAIR

The various Combmunity Fairs BE-
ing held over our county under the
supervision of our efficient demon
stration agent Miss Katherine Rich
ardson, seems to be of great interest
and are showing the coming genera
tion what has been and what can be
done by cooperation. Now every
community is clamoring for more edu-
cation caused by just such meetings
as was held at OakdaIe. From an
agricultural standpoint we feel that
we have made good, but from an edu-
cational view we feel that there are
many more rounds to the same old
ladder.
Now for the benefit of those inter-
ested am going to name some of
the old relics exhibited at the Oakdale
Fair: Silk Beaver worn by Mr..

they are both willing to teach and
help us with our poultry troubles.
The Fair Association has offered
$4,000 or $4,000 in premiums for the
poultry exhibit. 1t is to be hoped we
will show our appreciation of this by
each one of us doing our bit to make
the Poultry Exhibit at the Fair in

to save you coops and space. 1t will
save him much worry and the Fair
Association money too, if they know
how many coops will be needed Don't
go off fishing or visiting, and then
knock some one else if your Fair is
not as good as the Orangeburg or

had done your part Clarendon Fair
could have been the best in the State.

which reminds me of Napoleon,
and the "Corsican Paryenue" was no
less an emperor than his imperial
successor. Napoleon wanted to rule
the world, but he died a speck on a
rock in mid-occan far from the
magnificence, flash and glitter of his
self-made pomp. Had the kaiser been
satisfied with reasonable amount Of
power the world would not now be
convulsed with blood and death. If
the teachings of history are true then
we will soon hear the despairing sigh
of another broken hearted world con-
querer, and the kaiser will go to join
his cousin, the czar of all the Rus
slams on the frozen PLAINS of Siberia.

sides dying in space no larger than
from here to Cheraw, all that one
mans ambition should be gratified.
The trains are no longer placarded
"On to Paris" but baffied, beaten and
out-fought at every point growing
weaker every day while the enemy
grows stronger, with no hope of vic
tory, suddenly he falls back crying
out for peace before an outraged peo-
pie, as occurred in Russia, hurl him
from his throne in outer darkness. 1t
Will end like circle IN the water so
far as he is concerned, but the great
God does not intend that ten million
men in all the countries of the world
shall die in vain. The guns of Ver-
dun sounded the death knell of mon
archy and when the war is over the
people will rule in every country on
the face of the globe. God will never
permit the marrow to be drawn out of
the very bones Of the nations that
Prussian junkers may fatten. When
this war ends it means a new dispen-
sation. The human race will be ele-
waited as whole or we will be syept
again into darkness where few trib-
ute-eXacting tyrants will exploit the
balance of mankind as :; matter of
fright. 1t was centuries filled with
self-seeking despots that gave the
world one thousand years known as
the Dark Ages. The envy and sell
fishness Of this present age is build
ing on the plains of Flanders, and

permanent peace in this world until
all the nations remember the doctrine
taught by Christ that love is natures
best builder. There are but two ma
tlons in this war whose hands are alb
solutely clean. France is fighting for
self preservation and the United
States for an ideal Like the cru
sader of old who with no thought of
self, fought to rescue the sepulchre
of the Lord from the hands of the in
fidel, so the United States has no
purpose except to make the world
safe for democracy. Our nation typi-
fies the constructive power of the
golden rule, which alone can save
civilization from extinction. The day
of Armageddon is upon US. God is
sitting out the hearts of nations be-
fore his judgment seat. 1t has been
foretold from the beginning. The
Bible has whole chapters referring to
period when for time satan is
unclaimed and has full power upon
earth. Through all the ages this day
has been dimly seen by poets of Ar
mageddon, where the brute nature of
man engages in the final battle with
his immortal soul and the brute is
finally overcome. The soul triumphs,
and then is the dawn of thousand
years of "peace on earth and good
will towards men," But, oh, my
