AFTER THE FOOD pRoF1TEERs.

The United States government has
indeed given fair warning to the prof
iteers in food, has almost been derelict
in duty in failing to bring action
against those who were suspected of
indulging in practices tending to cut
down the supplies Of products and to
raise prices abnormally. It may be
possible that the profteers considered
thu government was only engaging in
empty threats of what it would do
and, feeling secure in that belief, have
gone on in their nefarious work. At
any rate there are undoubtedly thou
sands Of cases throughout the United
States in which persons are taking sd-
vantages of the helplessness of their
fellows in this time of shortage of pro-
ltuction and are either withholding food
or are pressing the prices SO high as to
be prohibitive except to those of wealth
or very high wages Now, however,
the time of warning is over, according
to- statements made by officials of the
United States department Of justice,
and the period Of prosecution is at
hand. 1t is high time, too. Normal
and natural courses of action have not
resulted in any appreciate relief of
the almost intolerable conditions, but
wholesale prosecutions will do what
the passive attitude could not do,
Wholesale prosecutions win cause the
prices to come tumbling down as the

end Of the continent to the other. Moth

and Embraced by Her Youthful
Leading Man, Experience"

Twenty-odd years ago one of the
most popular women stars on the cir
cult was a dainty little black eyed
lady, with piquant Partisan dialect,
who played the title role in Ia Belle
Marie" for nearly a decade. One sea
son she engaged stalwart, handsome
young leading man by the name of
Andrus, and TO the members of the
company it soon became evident that
he was winning the stars heart in real
life as well as in the play And so it
was that Anges Herndon Became Mrs.
Albert Andrus in private life, and for
20 years they have lived and travelled
together always in the same compan-
iesa perpetual exception to the So
called rule about stage marriages.
A few seasons ago Mr. Andrus was
engaged for the leading role in "The
Bird of Paradise" in which there was
no part for his wife. Nevertheless she
accompanied him on tour and relates
with quaint humor her attempts to
amuse herself outside the theatre while

The audiences in the Barre opera
house have of late gotten into the bad
habit Of starting to leave the hall dur
ing the latter part of the performance,
this being especially true Of the mu-
steal productions when the finale by
the ensemble starts This movement
by the audience is disconcerting to both
the performers and that part Of the
audience which desires to enjoy the
melody to the last minute, the house
being thrown into confusion OF
sounds and the view of the stage being
cut of by those standing by their
seats. The result is that the finale
which is oftentimes the best piece of
the entire production, is absolutely
lost One might. perhaps, overlook this
hurly-burly and mad rush to get out
of the building if the production had
been Of mediocre or really poor class
because there would not be strong in
centive to stay to hear the misery
through to the end; but when the en-
tire presentation has been excellent
and the performers have striven hard
to please the audience with high-class
entertainment it is inexcusable thus &c
turn the cold shoulder on the friends
Of the moment before. Would it not
be more courteous to remain in the
seats until the curtain rings down fol

Better Livestock.

South Carolina is going through =
great change in many respects in her
farming system. During the past
few years, a large number of good
livestock have been introduced into
the State. a large number of these
have been purebred; but when The
entire number of livestock in the
state is taken into consideration, the
percentage of purebreds is very
small.
As South Carolina progresses IN
the production of livestock, she will
naturally develop better care-takers
of livestock, that is breeders and
herdsmen.
A sure and safe way for the av-
erage farmer to get into livestosk
production is TO make use of the ma
tive female cattle, hogs, sheep, etc.
that he has on his farm and breed
them to pure-bred sires of the par
ticular breed that seems to predom-
mate in the grade females that he
owns; or if'the females are only COM
mon ones, he might select a sire OF
the breed that he prefers and use in
grading up his herd or flock.
We have heard the expression
"Grow into livestock instead of go
into it." The above would offer a
good opportunity for increasing the
number and quality Of the livestock
on South Carolina farms, without a
great expense on the part of the be-
ginner.
Few of our farmers realize the
loss that is sustained each year by
keeping about the farm scrub bull,
boar, etc.
We have in mind a farmer in Ala
bama who bought car of approXi-
mately so native cows part of which
were bred to a scrub bull.
After making the purchase, he Sc
cured a purebred beef bull and used
on the INBRED COWS. All the calves
were dropped in the spring of the
year and ran on pastures without any
feed except their mothers milk. In
the late fall these calves were sold
from their mothers side. The calves
by the scrub bull averaged 800
pounds and sold for cents per

never thought of the stunt young
white man about nineteen, who yes

electric wires with all the ensuing
thrills of. the ninth episode Of NOV
ing picture thriller. He was finally
rescued by the fire department and
lodged in the station house.
Late in the afternoon the police
authorities received call that the
clothing house was being robbed by
two men. Lieut.. John J. Healy with
squad, rushed to the place and up
on entering caught colored boy OF
about ten, but in trying. to appre-
hend the other, they met more than
their match.
Rushing up TO the third floor of
the building the young man, closely
followed by the police, took flying
leap out of the window, and grabbing
the live wires with his hands hung
suspended in midair until he recov-
cred his breath and then started to

they were helpless to catch their
quarry the police sent hurry call

arriving sent one of its ladders up

pound; while the calves by the pure
bred bull and out of dams that aver
aged like those bred 10 the scrub bull
averaged 400 pounds in weight and
sold for Z 1-2c per pound-live-
weight. You will note that there was
a difference of $500 per head in
the selling price of these calves and
since the expenses in handling and
raising them are the same per head
this $500 can be considered clear
profit which was realized from the
calves sired by the pure-bred bull
over those sired by the scrub.
If 25 of the above COWS were bred
to the purebred bull, the farmer rea-
lized 25 times or S375.00 more than
he would have if he had not secur-
ed a good bull. This amount was
sufficient to buy an extra good bull,
and remember that he paid for him
self in one year in this case. A good
bull may be used for several years.
Any county in South Carolina
might do we'll to consider the advisi-
bility of trying to save the county a
great loss by eradicating the scrub
sires. Your County Agent and the
Animal Husbandry Extension Ser
vice, Clemson College, S. c., will be
glad to assist you in such move.

Baptist Summer Gathering at Coker
College, Hartsville, 5. c.,
June 1921.

Five hundred Baptist Sunday
school teachers, young peoples lead
ers, Womans Missionary Union work
ers, pastors and laymen will assem-
BILE at Coker College, Hartsville,
June 1921, in the second annual ses-
sion of the Pee Dee Summer School.
President E. w. Skies, of Coker Col
lege, is host of the school and Secre-
tary Thomas j. Watts, Of Columbia,
in charge of Baptist Sunday school
interests in South Carolina, is dean.
The first annual session of this Sum-
mer School held last June was at
tended by large number of persons,
representing churches from twelve
Baptist district associations. The at
tendance this year promises to be
much larger. The Pee Dee Summer
School is real school and is link
in the chain of the great teacher
training and mission study system of
the Southern Baptist Convention.
The school is especially designed to
meet the needs of the churches of
the Pee Dee, Santee, Charleston,
Waccamaw, Chesterfield, Kershaw,
Moriah, Welsh Neck, Florence, Fair
field, Southeast, Orangeburg, Savan-
nah River and Carolina Associations.
The courses in the Pee Dee Sum-
mer School cover wide range of
subjects in the field of Sunday school
education, B. Y. P. U. training, mis-
sions and church activities generally.
There will also be special evening
lectures Of popular nature, though
at the same time educational and cul-
tural. The teachers and lecturers are
as follows: Rev. B. w. Spillman, D.
D., Kinston, N. c., Rev. Frederick A.
Agar, D. D., New York City, Prof.
Leuco Gunter, Colupbia, Rev. Jos.
IT. Watts, D. D., Richmond, Va, Miss
Annie L. Williams, Birmingham,
Ala, Prof. C. E. Schiable, Harts-
vile, Rev. Joseph A. Gaines, Colum-
bia, Miss Bessie Major, Anderson,
DR.. E. w. Skies, Hartsville and Rev
Thos. ]. Watts, Columbia.
Much attention will be given to
Sunday school music and this will
be under the direction of Prof. Ar
thur Stands and Mrs. Stands, Of
Ebenezer, S. C.
The churches throughout the Pee
Dee section will send their teachers
to take the Convention Normal
Courses and in many instances the
pastor and two or three teachers will
go at the expense of the church, as
was done last year.
The students of the Summer school
will board in the beautiful dormitor-
les of Coker College at the very mod
crate rate of $3.50 for the full term
and the only other expense will be
railroad fare and s1.O0 for registrar
ton.

Dillon County Drives Out Scru1

Dillon County Drives Out Scrubs.
Clemson College, May 29-Dillon
county is following the lead made
last month by Greenwood county in
the matter of ridding the county of
scrub livestock. The intensive cam
paign was begun last week by Coun-
~ Agent S. w. Epps and the Ami
NAL Husbandry Division of the Ex-
tension Service under the leadership
OF Mr.. V. w. Lewis. Two days, May
% and % were spent in putting on
the drive, and six meetings, two each
day and one each night, were held
with a total of 2SS farmers and
! livestock men.
The plan of the campaign is to
put only pure bred hogs, cattle and
sheep in the county in place of the
scrub and grade stock now found. So
far as cattle are concerned, a fairly
good foundation to work upon has
already been built through the fact
that in the last two or three years
Is or more purebred bulls have been
placed in the county chiefly through
efforts Of the Extension Service. A
thriving Bull Association exists in
the county with good number of
community blocks.
At the meeting held last week the
livestock specialists of the Extension
Service led discussions concerning
the value of purebred stock, illus
trated with lantern slides showing
good live stock comparison with
scrubs. Time not spent in meetings
was spent in personal visits to lead
ing farmers, who will help push the
campaign.
The fact that this movement for
purebred livestock should find sup
port in one of the foremost cotton
and tobacco counties of the state is
pretty good evidence of the increasing
interest in good livestock which is
developing not only in the Pee Dee
section but all over the state. Last
weeks work in Dillon will be follew-
ed up with return visits from time
to time and with continuous work
by the county agent and his commit
teemen throughout the county and
will be effectively supported by the
newspapers of the county and sec
ton.
