Frost Proof Corn Grown BY Indians.
Maize, or Indian corn, in it's present
form, represents one of the great
achievements of primitive planters,
the North American Indian, says Rob-
ert II. Moulton, in an illustrated arti-
Gle in the June Popular Mechanics
Magazine. 1t came originally, it is
now generally accepted, from south
ern Mexico, and was eaten by the
Maya tribes. At first, it was nothing
but a coarse grass on which were tiny
ears resembling the top of the wheat
stalk. The plant is essentially tropi-
cal and, despite centuries of culture
in the temperate zone is still sensi-
tive to frost.
The tribes of North America saw the
possibilities of the grain an fastened
its evolution. There has been cross
breeding by white farmers, yet, as a
) matter of fact, the corn culture of the
present day is practically as it came
from the hand of the Indian. He has
adapted and modified 1t to various sec
tons of the country by a process OF
careful selection.
Recently it occurred to some scient'
lists that despite the drawback of the
weather the Mandan Indians of the
North were raising corn. An expedi
ton made a study of the agriculture
methods of the Mandans, and 1t devel
oped hat for centuries the farmers, o
the tribes had been developing a hard.
corn. The seed had been selected from
year to year from stalks which show
ed no effect of frost.

night at ii o'clock by G. w. Kinard.
Mr.. Kinard was notified that some

halt and thinking it W; the thief
shot once, the load entered Hairs
stomach.
Hair heard the noise in Kinard's
store and he and several others had
gone to see what was the cause. A
negro, Archie Counts, was found in
the store. Sheriff Blease hurried to
the scene and Counts was taken to
the jail in Newberry.
Mr.. Hair was rushed to the Colum-
bia hospital for an operation.
Only last Friday Hair had return

THE coLoRED CITIZENS
WELCOME coLoRED SOLDIERS
The Fourth Observed in Newberry
BY the Colored People in Wei
come to Colored Soldiers.

The fourth was great day IN
Newberry for the colored citizens.
They extended a welcome home to
the soldiers who had been in the
service either over there or over
here. They began coming in early
in the morning and by noon the
streets were lined with them both in
uniform and civilian clothes. 1t was
an orderly crowd and well behaved
and was so all the day long, not only
in town but at the Helena grove
where the meeting was really held.
The procession formed in Caldwell
street at the Hoge school house and
marched around and down Main
street through the gates with the
motto, "Victory" over the top. The
colored band from Columbia march
ed in front and then the marshals
and followed by the soldiers in uni
form and they marched we'll and in
good order. They were followed by
automobiles with women dressed as
Red Cross nurses, and then the civil
ians followed, and soon the town was
desterted and the crowd assembled
lat Helena where a barbecue dinner
was served the soldiers and picnic
dinner the balance of those who were
present. A speech was made by Rev
|Dr. White of Columbia, and the bes1
of good order prevailed Throughout
the entire day, and when the festiv
ties were over the large crowd wen'
on home in an orderly and proper
manner. We mention this because i
has so often been the case that thl'
day is taken to mean it must b'
rowdy and boisterous and has fre
quently resulted in many casualtie
and deaths. But is was truly SAM
fourth in Newberry. We commen'
the colored people for the manner il
which they carried out their welcom
| to their returning soldiers.

The number of homicides in South
Carolina is alarming, and it is becom-
ing more evident every day that
more stringent laws against pistol
toting must be enacted and must be
enforced. Probably the next legisla-
ture may give some attention to this
subject. Certainly the protection OF
life ought to be an aim as high as
the protection of property. And yet
we have few laws more lenient than
those against the pistol-toters and
the motor speed fends, who are daily
taking their toll of human life, and
few laws more lax in their enforce
ment. In the eyes of great many
people in this country, it appears
that trafice in liquor, or anything
that runs counter to the wave OF
prohibitory reform" that is sweep
ing over the country, is a greater
crime than murder. Something Is
wrong with the perspective. Maybe
however, when national prohibition
gets in full swing, as some fellow
has pointed out, everybody will love
everybody else; the slums will de-
ivelop into flower gardens in which
cute bungalows will nestle; human
nature will be changed; the preach
ers and the anti-salooners will have
to hunt other jobs, and the mlllen
ium will have arrived.
In the meantime, however, it nigh
be just as well to try to build a dan
somewhere that will hold this crime
wave that seems to be outdistanclns
even that other wave, at present.
