WELL, 1T LOOKED SUSPICIOUS
But What Prohibition Officers Thought
Was "Stlll" Was Really Some-
thing Quite Different.

State and federal prohibition officers
were silent concerning recent expert
ence, when they swooped down on the
shack of John Finn Of Sherbourne
mountain to raid what was supposed
to be giant still.
Finn. a Russian. was nowhere to be
seen, but ut the rear Of his clearing
was a rough, conicnl stone structure,
about six feet high Its chinks filed
with clay. Under 1t cracked log
fire, while from its top issued smoke
and steam.
One still-hunter pried open the
small iron door, thrust hand into
the steam-filled interior and emitted
a shrek.
"A laigl" he cried. "A human laig
And it's alive!"
From the doorway emerged first the
foot, next the "laig," and then body
Of John Finn. clad only In the muddy
mantle. Of innocence.
., t'tyatSsstty' doin'7" was fired at him.
"Takin' BATH" he answered In
broken English.
Finn explained he had built himself
Russian bath, obtaining the steam
by letting cold water drip on heated
stones.-Rutland (Vt) Dispatch in

May Get Treasure From Ocean.

A ships treasure buried for 1870
years has now, It Is thought, been To-
Gated. Anyway, the East India COM
pany's ship GrosvenOr, which foun.
dered Off the coast of Pondoland, South
Africa, in 1882, with $S,573,85O in spe-
Gle, numerous gold and silver ingots.
and precious stones, including an al
most priceless parcel Of emeralds on
board, has now been located. The
Gro:'venor Bullion syndicate has been
organized and survey work is already
proceeding. The consulting engineer
in the operation confirms the report
that the ship. which Is said to lie In
from 18 TO rs feet Of water only, Is
intact from keel to deck. A 90-foot
tunnel from shore to ship Is proposed.
A large silver Spanish coin bearing
a worn date that appears to be 1922.
lighter silver coin which appears to
be Indian and small gold piece on
which an, image may be fairly dis
cerned have been obtained from per-

MAXI FARM sHLF-suppoRr1Na.
Produce staple Food and Feed Crops
for Landlord, Tenants, Stock.

Clemson College, Dec. 1.-"Under
boil weeyil conditions it is consid-
cred extremely important for ach
farmer to raise as nearly all Of the
staple food and feed crops as posi-
bic TO supply all the needs Of the
landlord, the tenants and the live
stock. A survey which was made Of
South Carolina in 1920 reveals the
fact that this State does not produce
enough syrup to supply the needs Of
the rural population Of the State by
something like 100000 gallons;
that there Is deficit of wheat Of
more than 100000 bushels; of hay
Of over 100000 tons; Of hogs Of
$4,000; and that we do not have
dairy cattle enough TO supply the
needs Of the rural population by
24O, 900. 1t was found also that there
were number Of counties in the
State which did not produce corn in
sufficient quantities 10 supply the
home needs.
at home more cheaply than they can
be purchased from other sections,
and producing them should not inter
fere with the production of staple
cash crops, but should round out
well-balanced cropping system. On
any farm on which a good rotation is
followed for the purpose Of building
up the soil fertility OF the land and
maintaining a system of diversified
agriculture, all Of these crops can be
grown economically and to good ad-
vantage"

DON'T KILL "BUGS'


The following letter was recently
received by S. *. Dendy. Sr., who
has handed it to us for publica ion.
1t will be recalled that we published
not long since statement regarding
the preservation Of the partridges as
a means of combating the boil wee
vii. The letter follows:
Dear Uncle Sam:
i. read IL The Keowee Courier re-
Gently that a man at West Union
pleads to spare the partridges, and
to herd them in the cotton fields to
eat the boil weevils.
That man is behind tho age. The
partridge is grainivorous bird
subsists on grain and seeds. We have
had boil weevils here for years, and
you may kill and dress thousand
partridges and you never find a boil
weevil in ones craw Gin Texas.) The
South Carolina partridge may be a
carnivorous bird, but Texans don't
think so.
Lou Gordon died here at 2 o'clock
this morning. Phoned Clarence Har-
ris and Kathleen at Mckinney to
come and conduct the funeral. They
got here at 7 o'clock this morning.
We are invited out into the coun-
try to J. B. Gantt's (Julian knows
him) to eat a "'possum and tater
dinner Though we have slight
blizzard this morning l think we will
tackle it, as l have not tasted pos
sum for more than fifty years.
My man made only one bale Of cot
ton this year on thirty acres. Ths
boil weevils destroyed the cotton all
over the most Of Texas.

HER AFTERNOON QUITE BUSY
Violet Grace, Hot&svsr, Had intervals
OF Leisure, and Took Advantage
OF All Of Them.

Violet Grace dressed to 60 shopping.
Last OF all she powdered her, nose.
She went first to certain store. for
1t was having sale, but she didn't
see bargain in the whole store, so
she left. She paused moment at the
ribbon counter and powdered her nose.
She stopped at the blouse shop. She
simply had to have blouse soon. But
they had nothing that appealed to- her,
50 after powdering her nose she went
out.
She visited We baby shoppe to see If
she could find little gift for CamiIle's
baby, but everything was so frightfully
expensive that she decided to make
something to give. She powdered her
nose at the doorway. There was such
a good mirror there.
Feeling weary, she had cup Of
chocolate and some waters. The choc-
olate was not very hot and the
whipped cream looked mussy. She re-
solved She would go somewhere else
next time. Those tea shops deteri-
Grated so after they had established
q reputation. She powdered her nose
before leaving the table.
1t was early to 60 home, so she
thought she might as well see n pic
ture. She was disappointed IN 1t, how
ever, and she went out before It was
altogether finished. She powdered her
nose again In the rest room.
She boarded street car for home.
She wished she did not have to walk
two blocks when she got Off, but there
was no help FOR. II. She powdered her
nose and nllghted.
The afternoon was over.-Katherine
