REPORT OF VISIT TO THE
CLARENDON COUNTY JAIL
Made May 18th, 1921, By Assistant
Secretary Brearley.

The sleeping arrangements at the
Clarendon county Jail are most un-
satisfactory. Fourteen men are now
supposed to sleep upon four small
cots in a cell block only about 7'x15'
~. Not a single mattress was in
evidence and but few blankets. One
man stated that he had to sleep on the
floor with another prisoner and that
the two of them had only one blanket
for both bedding and covering.
The only bath tub for the use of the
prisoners has a hole in it and cannot
be used without floodinC the cell and
and leaking into the ia rs quarters
below Consequently nor. of the men
low confined have had a bath since
tEey were committed. At the time of
thus visit one prisoner had not bathed
IN seven weeks.
These conditions mean that any per-
son sent to this Jail will suffer more
severely before he is convicted than
he will in the same length of time up
OH the chain gang or in the state
penitentiary. In the sight of the law
a man is presumed innocent until he
is proven guilty. The Clarendon iail
should be made a place where an in
nocent man can be confined without
endangering his health and possibly
his life

COTTON ACREAGE
SHOWS REDUCTION

Reduction in Cotton acreage 1921,
3O.73 per cent.
Reduction use commercial fertiliz-
ers, SLIT per cent.
Abandoned acreage after planting
1921, 4.95 per cent.
Total acreage planted 1921, "a $685.
4S6 acres. Based upon 1920 yield in
dicates crop of 9,142,O98 bales.
Deducting IL per cent additional
for reduction SLIT per cent in use and
grade of commercial fertilizers for
1921, will indicate production of
7,558,365 bales.
Allowing deduction Of 42.73 per
cent account acreage reduction and
commercial fertilizers and adding
4.95 per cent for abandoned acreage
after planting in 1921, making a to-
tai OF 1853 per cent, the production
for this year based upon 1920 yield
would be 6,905.075 bales.
With acreage reduction 3O.73 per
cent and IL per cent deducted account
commercial fertilizers making a total
of 42.73 applied to the last five years
average production of 11,8O8, ,389
bales, the estimated yield for 1921
would be 6,762, ,664 bales.
The abandonment of cotton acreage
planted to date will be very material
ly increased due to bad stands and fin
ancial inability to cultivate the crop.

MARION WOMAN
TO BE OBSERVED

Marion, May 31.-The case of Mrs.
Lizzie Jones, charged with the poi
soning of her husband, was postponed
today until the fall term of court in
order that she might be placed under
observation at the South Carolina
State hospital DR.. James E. Boone;
alienist from Columbia, made a cur
sorry examination of Mrs. Jones yes
terday and was of the opinion that
she was mentally deficient but did
not care to make a final diagnosis
until he could make an extended OBJ
,servation of her case.
Mrs. Jones complains of lengthy
spells of sleeplessness an densuing
physical exhaustion She states that
for weeks at time she is affected
this way and that prior to the death
of her husband she had these spells.
Her emotional tone has been low, it
is said, and she has looked upon her
coming trial almost with indifference
She has not seemed 70 be depressed
over the possible outcome of her trial
and often appeared in happy frame
Of mind.
Sheriff j. V. Rowell states that
Mrs. Jones will be taken to Colum-
bia either tomorrow or the next day.
Papers for her transfer are being
prepared.
Jim Ammons, alleged to have given
Mrs. Jones the strychnine, with which
to poison her husband and to have
incited her to administer the Cdose
was also not brought to trial today
He is held under So, 500 bail
At the time of the alleged killing
of her husband, Mrs. Jones admitted
without hesitancy the administering
of the poison. Physicians of this city
are divided in opinion as to her san
ity.

WELFARE MAN VISITS
JAIL AND CHAIN. GANG
REPORT OF VISIT TO THE
COUNTY CHAIN GANG
Made May 10th, 1921, BY Assistant
Secretary Brearley.

Except for poor disposal of sewage
the Clarendon County chain gang is in
as good condition as it was last wear.
when it was ranked as fourteenth
among the counties of the state. Last
year the soil buckets were emptied in
to pit and covered with earth every
day, but this year almost no sanitary
precautions are taken and the refuse
is empticd on the ground near the
house in which the chain gang was
encamped.
Act 352, Acts of 1914. requires that
prisoners with good behavior shall
have one tenth Of the sentence deduct
ed as reward for their conduct.
Clarendon is one of the six counties in
the state that fail to observe fully the
provisions of this lG~ in spite Of the
fact that the act states the penalty
Tor non-performance shall be impri-
sonment for not less than thirty days
or a fine of not less than one hundred
dollars.
Some of the other improvements
needed at this camp are: the giving
OF fresh vegetables occasionally to add
variety to the bill of fare; the aboli-
tlon of the disgusting habit of allow
ing more than ono man to wash in one
cuo OF water; the purchase of more
bedding and the more frequent wash
ing of that now in use.

PUBLIC HEALTH NOTES
BY THE COUNTY nurse

Mothers do not torture your babies
with heavy clothing this hot weather.
The cooler your baby rs kept the bet
ter it is for him and the less liable he
IS TO nave summer complaint Two
garments Of very thin material are
sufficient-a slip and napkin.
The baby conference at Turbeville
last Wednesday was splendid. While
there were not as many babies as they
had hoped to have, still the interest
was great and because of the smaller
number, Miss Moore was able to give
each mother individual instruction in
the care of her baby. This is some
thing that every mother appreciates.
All were interested in the exhibit
which included the proper and i'm
proper kinds of food for children as
well as for the family, the kind Of
toys to use for babies, and baby Kill
lers--tea and coffee, coca-cola, pare
goric, peanuts, bananas, candy, pick
les and pacfiers. The play pen which
the boy scouts of Summcrton made
was also shown, and home made
Kiddy Koop. The committee was un-
trlnG in their work and the nurse
again wishes to thank her chairman
and his helpers for their faithfulness.
ned at Gable June 3rd. These confer
ences require great deal Of work on
the part Of the nurse and her COM
mittee. Every home in the commun-
ity where there are children is visited,
and the aim of the conference explain
ed, the time and day for the confer
ence, and if there are any who have
no way of transportation, some mem
Der of the committee provides way.
1t takes week Of hard work to get
ready for one of thc"e conferences and
Miss Moore and her committee are
more than anxious for every family
in the community to have the benefit
of a free examination of the young
children VINO are under school age.
If there is any community which
would like to hold a conference, the
nurse will be glad to have information
to that effect.

MARINE STRIKE STILL IN FORCE

Washington, May 3l.--Dcmands Of
the marine engineers for clause in
the proposed agreement with the
shipping board providing for the re-
mstatomcnt of the men who left
their ships during the marine wage
controversy prevented settlement
of the shipping strike today, Sccre-
tary Davis announced after series
of conferences with both parties.
Later he visited the White House but.
no statement was made concerning
his discussion with the president.
The secretary will confer with the
engineers again tomorrow, it was an
nounced, but tonight he said he felt
that he had exhausted every means
of setting the dispute and unless the
present tentative agreement was
signed, he would devote no more time
to the matter.
Under the terms Of the agreement
already approved by Chairman Ben
son of the shipping board and said
by labor department officials to have
been ratified in referendum Sunday
by union locals, the matter Of rein
statement was to be left to an un-
derstanding that each would be set
tied in fairness to all parties con-
cerned.
Secretary Davis conferred with
both the engineers and shipping
board officials today and also kept in
touch by telephone with the Ameri-
can ship Owners association, who
were in session in New York. He
later announced that the association
would be in session again tomorrow
and that there was yet a chance of
their agreeing to the proposed terms.
In such an event, he added the agree
ment would in his opinion yet be
signed by all parties.

FRENCH SENATE
SUPPORTS BRAND

Paris, May 81 (By the Associated
Press 1.-The senate today voted con-
fidence in Premier BRAND in connec-
tion with the reparations settlement.
The vote was 277 to 8.
The question of confidence arose
during the discussion of the budget
expense recoverable from Germany.
The Radical Socialist, NJ. Hery, pre-
sented motion that the decisions
taken at the London conference be
referred to the finance and foreign
committees. He not only objected to
France foregoing a balance of 12,-
900 marks on May I, but also to
Frances acceptance of a 0per cent.
reduction in her claims.
NJ. BRAND, in asking for a vote of
confidence, said he would not be the
one to adopt a policy which disre-
garded the agreement the allies had
reached at London and which sought
to obtain from Germany greater
amount than the reparations commits
sion had awarded. If the Ruhr were
occupied in ap attempt to collect more
from Germany, the premier declared,
France must be called to arms, and
he would not be the one to do it.
Suppose such a policy were ac-
cepted," he said, "then there would
no longer exist either treaty nor
reparations commission and the en-
tire world would utter cry of
amazement."

Mr.. Hanks, proprietor of the Moving
Picture theatre, has kindly granted

crowd for this show as the people
generally ore manifesting much eager
ness to get all the possible informa-
tion on this vital problem of our pre-
sent day agriculture.
This picture shows the different
types of machines used for applying
the poison and should be of interest
