Cotton

Columbia, May .26-Plans for the
erection of warehouses for cotton in
ali parts of the State are being sent
out from the offices of the State
warehouse system in Columbia, and
already about one hundred ware
houses, IN addition to those already
in operation within the State ware
house system, are urder contempla-
tion and soon to be constructed. These
one hundred warehouses, to be erect
ed, .ane distributed all over the. State,
practically every. county being repre-
sented IN the list
The warehouse commission is furn-
ishing without cost plans, and specifii-
cations for the construction of the
warehouses which will be part Of the
enlarged State system, These plans
are approved by the Southeastern In
Ispection and rating bureau and the
rates of insurance obtained are the
lowest to be had, it's stated.
8 There are two kinds OF. warehouses
for which the State warehouse COM
mission is furnishing plans. One is a
community warehouse, Of cheap con-
struction. It is estimated that the
erection of these warehouses will cost
about 81 per bale to be stored. The
rate of insurance: is 1.57 u The 9TH
er type is designated for county use,
to- be of permanent construction;
equipped with sprinkler system and
fire-proof in every detail. These ware
houses. 1T lis estimated roughly, will
cost about ten dollars for every bale
OF capacity: The rate of insurance
for this class of building is tS to 20.
The plans of the warehouse COM
mission is that these more permanent
warehouses are to be used as assem-
bling places, in the county seats or
larger towns. OF the hundred new
warehouses bing planned, there are
q. dozen Of this assembling type. One
Eof. these, already incorporated, is at
Dillon. and will cost $4,000.
/ There are now 10000 bales Of cot
ton stored in the warehouses OF the
State system.
nJuiy 18th campaign for ware
houses will be started viii be started
in the state, the. warehouse board, the
cotton association, the State and ma
tional departments Of agriculture and
Clemson College, cooperating in the
movement, which is intended to urge
the importance Of building cotton
warehouses. There will be meetings
| in5all the counties in the interest Of
| this campaign.

Anole-irish Tunnel.

Not only is it thought that the long
talked-of tunnel between England and
France will be constructed at no re-
mote date, but there is also talk Of q
tunnel between England and Ireland.
This would restore to a slight extent
theageographical union that existed be-
tween the two countries in one geologi-
cal age thousands and thousands OF
years ago. Great Britain and Ireland
were then separated only by great
valley.
It Is proposed to carry the tunnel
from some point On the coast Of Lam
eashire to the nearest point In Antrim
or down on the Irish coast, a subma-
rine length of. "a miles. One of the
great benefits Of the tunnel would be
that it would shorten the transatlantic
journey by at least 48 hours It would
also help the Irish cattle trade and the
shipping of perishableg goods, especial
" fish, to English markets. Estimates
Of the cost of the proposed tunnel vary
from $50 100000 to $4,000, 600.

OPERA SUCCEEDS BULL FIGHT
Famous Arena In Mexico City Will No

Slaughter.

The Teatro el Toro In Mexico City,
once one OF the most pretentious OF
bull fight arenas, is now the home Of
grand opera as a result Of President
Carranza's decree that bull fights
should cease. Interspersing grapd
opera, dancers and concert artists
have appeared in the arena and it is
stated that these various forms OF
amusement will be offered until some
definite action Is taken as to the fu=
tnre Of bun fighting. q
It was In this arena that what is
said to be one Of the NEST remarkable
spectacles In the history Of the sport
was staged. A. bull, El Bonito, known
as one Of the fiercest. fighters, on being
brought into the arena charged and
killed three horses and injured as
many men without being touched by
the estoque Of any matador.
As the, bull stood believing def
ance. and with no one apparently wills
ing to attack him, Miguel Ballo, a
picador who was spectator in one
Of the boxes, leaped unarmed into the
inclosure. In his outstretched hand he
carried two Jumps Of sugar, which he
nonchalantly offered to the bull. The
animal suddenly ceased its believing
and q few moments docilely licked
the sugar from Ballo's hand. The
lattet returned unharmed to his box

nation has gone on sugar debauch,

soft drinks, in addition to the essential
supply for household purposes. The
results of this debanch are now max

sssrd instant and reprodaced IN this
issue q point in the contro-
|yersy oversthe proposed Gamers Fer
~ Bridge that merits serious con-
|sideration. A public highway TO be
worth what 1t costs must serve a
large number of people. and the high
way that serves the greatest number
of people most conveniently is more
valuable than the one that serves a
less number less conveniently. On
the face OF the statements made by
Lower Richland it appears that a
strong case has been made out in IA
for Of a Sumter to Columbia highway
via WedgsGedd and Eastoyer rather
than by way Of Stateburg and Car
sner,s ferry. The Wedgefeld-Eas
over route would certainly be more
convenient, serve a larger population
and be less costly to Richland county
than the Gamers Ferry route. On
the other hand the Gamers Ferry
route would serve practically as many
people in Sumter county as the
Wedsefeld route and would be less
.costIyIto Sumter county, for the road
from Stateburg to the swamp IS now

the Wedgefeld route would necessi-
tate the construction of three or four
miles OF road through a hilly and diff
.fcult country between Wedgeheld and
the river swamp. The construction
OF standard highway, with easy
grades, from EFedgefeld to the swamp
would be an expensive proposition.
as any one who is familiar with the
country between Wedgeheld and the
Camden Junction will admit.
The more one considers the Car

stronger becomes the conviction that
