Sunday School Bulletin Issued
by University.

Columbia, June 27.-A complete
study of the rural Sunday school and
its problem, with an outline of organ
ization and suggestions for the ad-
ministration of rural Sunday school
is contained in a bulletin just issued
by the University of South Carolina.
The bulletin was written by G. E.
Kepley, as his thesis in the Depart
ment of Rural Social Science for the
degree of Master of Arts. The Fore
word is by Prof. Gee, head of the
Department. 1t is for distribution and,
will serve as great help to Sunday
school leaders.
The facts and suggestions contain
ed in the bulletin were gathered by
Mr.. Keple. is a complete survey made
by him of the rural Sunday school.
This bulletin gives brief history
of the Sunday school movement, dat
ing from the organization of the
first school, in 1889 by Robert
|Raikes. It's study of the organization;
of the modern rural Sunday school
begins with the committee on educa-
tion of the modern purpose of which
is to map out the course of study to
select teachers and to supervise the
course of study; and covers in detail
the work of the officers, the organi-
zation of the departments, the adop-
tion and use of a program and set
of standards for each pupil, and the
kind and quantity of equipment, in
cluding the school building. The bull
|letin also discusses the Importance Of
proper leadership and other means
for making the Sunday school eff
fective.
The Sunday school, the bulletin
shows, is community builder and is
of immense Importance to the rural
communities. It's teachings from the
Bible are closely associated with the.
beauties of nature and the poetry of
country life, and its training for
leadership meets the greatest of all
rural problems.
There are fifty million Americans
living under rural conditions. Nine
tenths of the ministers are from the
country and two-thirds of the Sum
day schools are rural. The solution
of the rural problems depends large
ly on making religion vital to the
man of the country and this needs,
the efficient Sunday school. q
The bulletin is being distributed
to persons throughout the state by
DR.. Reed Smith, director Of the Uni
versity Extension Department.

Worlds Largest Deposit of
S 81. Rock Salt.

Vast quantities of rock salt lie less
than half mile beneath the surface
of the earth in the United States. In
New York, Ohio, Michigan, Penn
sylvania, West Virginia, and other
states, and probably in the world, is
that which extends from Northern
Kansas across the west end Of Ok
lahoma, the panhandle of Texas, and
!: Southeastern New Mexico to Western
Texas. The area underlain by these
great .Permian salt deposits is not
far. from 100000 square miles, ac-
scording to the United States Geolo-
sgical Survey, Department of the In
terror. The limits of the deposit, es-
.pecially to the northwest and south
east, have not been ascertained, but
in general the area of thick salt ex-
tends fully $50 miles from northeast
to southwest, and is fifty to 150
miles wide. The thickness and the sue
cession of the beds are variable, but
700 feet is reported in one hole, and
i'm many places the aggregate is more
than 800 feet. On the assumption of
an average thickness Of 200 feet OF
salt, the gross quantity in the area OF
nm nm square miles is so large,
about so,ooo,oOO billion tons, that
che present needs Of the United
states (about 100000 tons Year,
can be supplied for millions Of. years,

Bee Industry Growing.

Clemson college, June 25.-South
Carolina farmers in general and es-
pecially in, certain Piedmont counties
are taking greater interest than ever
before in bees, as may be illustrated
by an account of progress in oconee
and Anderson counties, where the
bee specialist of the Extension Ser
vice has many calls in promoting the
work.
In Oconee county "Bee Week" was
observed recently under the leader
ship of County Agent George R.
Briggs and Extension Bee Specialist
E. N. Provost. Nine demonstrations
were held with total attendance of
"a beekeepers, and great interest was
shown in all the demonstrations. Ia
old box gums were discarded and re-
placed by modern hives. An example
of the value of the work done is in
the experience of Mr.. Davis Martin,
a farmer of Oakway, who two years
ago transferred his bees under the
specialists direction into two modern
hives and has this year obtained
about 800 pounds of first class hon
ey. This product figured at 80 cents
per pound makes a good showing for
SO small an investment in money and
labor. Additional value is attached
to the demonstrations held during
"Bee Week" because of the fact that
lit will be easy for those who attend
ed the demonstrations to continue to
transfer their own and their neigh
bor's bees into modern hives. The
beekeepers of the county are organic
ed into a county association with
three divisions to cover three distinct
sections of the county.
In Anderson County good progress
is also being made in bee work and
this county now holds the record for
bees in South Carolina with over
Is 5000 stands in the county. Many of
these stands have already been trans
ferred to modern hives and others

Wants Prisoners to Support
Selves.

Washington, June ga short
time ago Senator Dial took up with
Attorney General Daugherty the
matter of purchasing farm lands to
be utilized by inmates of various pen
itentiaries, his idea being that the
convicts should do more work and
thus become more self-sustaining. To-
day he received letter from the at
torney general, in which, discussing
conditions at the Atlanta and Leav-
enworth penitentiaries, ne said:
sWithout doubt the same economy
will be effected at Leavenworth as
was at Atlanta, when we acquired a
farm at the penitentiary. The whole
question of employment of federal
prisoners is now being given earnest
attention and consideration, and it
is hoped that the department will be
in a position to make some definite
recommendations to congress in this
respect in the next year"
Senator Dial believes that every
thing possible should be done to
utilize the services of these convlcts
in order ethat they may help to sup
port themselves and be less OF tax
ON the people.

are being transferred. The county has
a well organized beekeepers' asso-
ciation with a good membership all
over the county. Monthly meetings
are held at which problems of various
kinds are discussed and often lectures
given by some leading authority on
bees.

American Extravaganza.

American Extravaganza.
Politicians have great deal to say
relative to the difficulty of compet-
ing with the pauper labor of Europe.
To this one thing is charged many
of our economic difficulties. AS a
matter of fact, is not American ex-
travagance the primary cause for so
many of our troubles? BY extrava-
eance we do not mean the purchase
of luxuries when money is plentiful,
although individually and as nation
we would be, better off if we increas-
ed our savings account when oppor-
tunity offered. We mean that, we are
extravagant in production; in the use
of our lands; in the destruction Of
our natural resources; in our man
ner of work and in our way of liv-
ing. We are extravagant in distribute
ing our products and even in the use
of the English language.
The agricultural industry contin-
ues to lead all others in the number
engaged and in volume and value OF
its product. 1t is the most important
of industries and is conducted with
less consideration of approved busl-
ness principles and rules than any
other. It has been producing indus
try without sales department. This,
perhaps has been the chief obstacle
in the way of its prosperity. But,
there are some things about produc-
ton which every farmer should con-
slider. The cost of production could
be lowered in many Instances by a
little. planning and more system. Of
ten times the margin between profit
and loss depends on taking of the lit
tie things about the place. Farmers
who take the opportunity on rainy
days to put their machinery in order
are ready to go into the field the first
bright day and frequently this ad-
vanced preparation makes and saves
a crop. Fixing a gate at the right
time takes but few minutes, while
letting it go sometimes costs many
dollars in destroyed crops by loose
running stock.
The American farmers, many Of
them, are extravagant in their acre
age. They try to put into crop more
land than they can properly prepare,
cultivate or harvest. AS a result they
receive smaller returns from large
acreage than they would have receiv-
ed from half as much. Every farmer
knows that his plowing should be
done at the proper time; that it
should be done in a certain way; that
his seed must be of the best and put
into the ground at the right time,
and that constant and good cultiva-
ton is necessary to the production of
a maximum crop of quality products.
Yet, how many farmers are able to
do these things at the right time?
Under our large farm system it can't
be done except at the expense of
much hired labor, and as result we
cover great deal of ground in a
skimpy, haphazard way without re-
ceiving adequate returns for labor
and investment.
The small, we'll cultivated and
properly managed farm generally
produces a greater income than the
farm of large acreage which does not
receive proper attention. Communi-
ties in which small, well cultivated
farms predominant are generally
prosperous.-Farm & Ranch.
