Humphreys was a student under him.
He said in his address:
Just once it was my lot to receive
a severe rebuke from General Lee.
While was an undergraduate my
health seemed to become impaired, and
he had conversation with me about
it, in which he expressed the opinion
that l was working too hard. | re-
piled: Il am SO impatient to make up
the time | lost in the army got no
further. General Lee flushed, and eX
claimed in an almost angry tone: Mr..
Humphreys, however long you live,
and whatever you accomplish, you will
find that the time you spent in the
Confederate army was the most prof
tably spent portion of your life. New

with those OF far distant regions.
Some varieties of seed may be car
ricd hundreds of miles by the wind.
Others, the cocoanut for example. may
drift in the ocean current. But the
presence of some plants can be eT-
planned only on the supposition that
the original seed had been transport
ed by birds.
In the west great areas of rugged
mountain country have been denudec
of trees by forest fires. Soil condi-
tions and inaccessibility make forest
planting either impossible or impracti
cal. Yet the bare slopes increase dan
ger from floors, landslides and ava
lanches. Representative Randall of
California has received the novai idea
of planting by air'plane, scattering mil
lions of seed in the air and trusting to
luck that small proportion will sprout
grow and reproduce.
OF course many seeds will fall on
barron rocks and in unfavorable con-
ditions, but with costs and difficulty of
so great there probably
would be saving in the long run. The
lirplane would take the place Of a
bird in covering the barren spots of the
Bee.

The Absent Voter Proposition

The Absent Voter proposition.-
Among other election reforms which
are promised for the next session OF
the General Assembly, which convenes
in January, is the absent voters bill,
which was introduced last year but
which failed to carry. The bill is faith
cred by Senator Thos. B. Pearce and
by Representative Gerald, both of Col
umbia, who state that they will push
it vigorously through the next session.
The bill would entitle voter absent
from his county on election day to
vote by registered mail
The bill will provide for registra-
ton book for all absent voters, anC
the names of such voters would be
certified by the county board of elec-
ton commissioners to the various pre-
cinct registrars. The elector would be-
allowed 20 send in his vote on the dAE
of election, duly certified before no.
tary. The votes would be mailed IN
by registered mail and would have
to be opened by the precinct mana
gers before o'clock in the afternoon
of the election dav. Such mailed votes
would be subject to challenge as are
any other ballots.
In addition to this bill, there VIII
probably be other election measures
before the next legislature. Member"
of the state democratic executive COM
mittec have stated that they expect 10
have introduced a bill to abolish the
Australian ballot system. They state
that it is too complex and that this
compleXity allows irregularities to get
in. This statement from members OF
the Democratic committee was called
forth after the recent contest of the
congressional election of the Sixth dis
trict. Chairman John Gary Evans, OF
the committee, has been quoted as
saying that he is in favor of such leg

FIVE MILLION FOR SCHOOLS
Annual School Revenue Reaches High
est in History.

est IN f1iSIoTy
The Forthcoming statistical report OF
the state superintendent of education
to the legislature, covering the scholas-
tic year July /, 191S-June 80, 1919,
will show total available school fund
of $5,19O,7l2.S2. For the first time in
the history of the states educational
system the annual school revenue has
exceeded $4,000, 100000. The total
school fund reported for the scholastic
year 1908. 1909 amounted to $2,S45,-
647.72. The gain during the last ten
years is, therefore, $2,745, ,065.1O. The
total school fund for the scholastic
year 1913-1914 was $500, ,13O.45. The
gain during the last five years is, there
fore, $1,570,5S2.17. The gratifying
growth is a direct result Of the uni
versal interest Of the people. The in
creased funds have been secured main
ly through local taxation stimulated by
legislative appropriation.
School taxes arc partly constitutional
and partly statutory. The constitution
Of 1895 levics on each citizen above
twenty-one years of age, except Con-
federate Veterans, a district poll tax
Of $1.O0. The constitution also requires
the levying in each county of tax OF
three mills upon each dollar of prop
erty. The proceeds of the three mill
constitutional tax are held in the coun-
" treasury and distributed to the
schools of the county upon the basis
of enrolment. The statutes provide
four school taxes. statutory levy
varying from $3.50 to $1.OO must be
paid for each dog. Under Section l142
of the Cole local tax of eight mills
for ordinary expenses may be voted in
any district The High School Law
permits the voting of an additional
high school tax of four mills. The gen.
eral bond act authorizes any district to
vote school bonds up to four per cent.
OF its assessed valuation. Special acts
relating to individual districts or to in
dividual counties authorize local taxes
amounting sometimes to twenty mills.
| 1t is interesting to note that all statu-
tory school taxes are purely local.
The general assembly in Section II
Of the appropriation bill makes thir-
teen specific appropriations for speci-
fic activities in the schools. These
thirteen appropriations make up the
various items of state aid. In Il con-
siderable numbcr Of counties the lesis-
! lative delegates have put in thc'r
county supply bills definite amounts
for the county schools or county
school lcvics ranging from one-fourth
mill to one mill. These scattered
county appropriations constitute the
county board fund which. in mcst in
stances, is distributed III the discretion
of the county board of education foI
the improvement of the schools.

BIG FOOD SURPLUS.
Herbert Hoover Says There is Plenty

herbert HooVer says | mere is Plenty
Of Food In America.
Sixteen to twenty million tons of
food more than necessary for Ameri-
can consumption will be the yield from
this years crop, Herbert Hoover form
or food administrator, told a house
war Investigating committee last week.
He said the continuing high retail
prices were due largely to the "appal-
ling psychology of the public to buy
expensive things"
Speculation by thousands of people in
anticipation of big demand from Ger
many also was blamed by Mr.. Hoover
for advancing prices. He said large
stocks were accumulated by the trade
on the assumption that export trade
to Germany would be opened soon af-
ter the signing of the armistice. IN
stead CT buying the Germans tightened
up their BELTS" he said.
Discussing the pending federal cold
storage law limiting storage of food
products to one year. Mr.. Hoover said
he did not think the law comprised
the critical point" OF preventing a
cold storage receipt from being used
as : speculative document" adding

hands.
