RoyalR. Graham Of Georgetown, to-

in court an operation for Mrs. Clvdc
Cassldente, of Denver, chat would
make it impossible for her to bear
any more children, declaring he only
told a reporter that such an order
might be entered under certain cir
cumStances.
AFTER the case had been ad
Jorncd," said the Judge, "I did re-
mark to reporter that an order di-
recting such an operation might be
entered if an investigation disclosed
conditions that would make it neces-
sary and if the consent Of the parties
concerned could be obtained, but as
to forcing Mrs. Cassidente to submit
TO such an operation, that was

LIQUOR REVENUE
STILL VERY LARGE
SS2,O00,O0 Taken in by Government
Last Year. All From Legal
Sourccs-Morc Than Onc-fourth
Amount Collected When Prohibi-
tion Was Not Effective.

Washington, Nov. 2S.-With ma
tional prohibition in effect, it might
naturally be assumed that the rcve-
nue. OF the government from alcoholic
liquors would be very small.
Under the law, the only permissible
manufacture or sale of Intoxicating IL
quors is for medicinal, sacrifcial, and
manufacturing purposes, all within
strict limitation and regulation.
Nevertheless, during the last fiscal
year, ending June 80, 1921, internal
revenue was collected by the govern
mcnt on Intoxicating liquors to the
extent Of over $S2,OOO,O00. This is
more than fourth of The internal rev
enue collected from Intoxicating H.
quors in the fiscal year, 1917, when
prohibition was not in effect.
The comparison shows that the
United States is consuming legally. or
certainly under legal forms, much
larger amount Of alcoholic liouors
than would be assumed by the avcr-
age citizen Bootleg liquor traffic.
OF course, is unlawful and escapes all
taxation.
Inquiry today brought forth the ad-
dltlonal fact that Uncle Sam collected
81 100000 during the calendar wear Of
l92o IN customs duties on imported
alcoholic beverages. The revenue from,
that source, however, has fallen in
much greater proportion than the in
tcrhal revenue on liquors. Before ma
uonal prohibition went into effect tbc
customs duties collected in a wear on
imported alcoholic beverages ran from,
Sl3,o00,00O to $19,0OO,OOO. It would
appear from this that we are maxine
IN our own country large propor-
tlon Of the liquors which are non
contraband now than we were before
we adopted national prohibition, But
the surprising fact is the extent of
the legal liquor revenue under tho
prohibition amendment and Volstcad
extensions.

HARDING REBGKES

propriatc $250,000,000 for rcdemp-
ton and reclamation projects in
the United States, and in SO doing
rcbukcd Senator McNary of Ore
gon and Representative Smith of
Michigan, who had strivcn for a
measure in which the South would
have no possible benefit. TO the
entire committee, which visited
him today asking that he recon-
mend the passage of the bill in his
llrst. message to congress in regular
session he expressed his approval
OF the substitute in which the
south was given consideration. He
heSItated, however, to agree to rec
ommcnd the appropriation because.
as he said, he did not know exactly
what state the treasury would be

before Judge Graham, sitting in the
Juvenile court here, Saturday on com
plant of Denver social workers to
show cause why her children should
not be removed from her custody, the
complaint alleging that the Cassi-
dente home was filthy and that the
children had been neglected and were
under -nourishcd.
At the hearing, one Of the witnesses
a medical student, stated he believed
the only remedy for conditions in the
Cassidentc home would be stcriiz-
ing operation for the mother, as, ac-
cording to the witness, the woman
was bearing children too fast. There
are five Cassidcntc children, the old
est eight years old and the youngest
about year old.
Discussing the case after it had
been given wide publicity. Judge
Graham said:
"As to the justice or advisability
OF such an operation | do not care to
comment. Certainly there is no law
that would permit such a ruling"
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1921-11-30

There is every reason to believe,
however, that the bill as agreed
upon will eventually be enacted into
law Similar legislation has trans
formed western areas from des-
erts into garden spots, and swamp
and overflowed lands in the south
are today twice as extensive as un-
redeemed lands in the west. What
has been accomplished in the west
may be accomplished in the south,
the committee contended and with
such contention the president agreed;
at any rate, he took the position that
every section, during his administra-
ton, must share in an equality of op-
portunity

MAKE FARM sELF-SUPpORTING
Produce Staple Food and Feed Crops
for Landlord. Tenants, and
Livestock

Clemson College, Nov 29.-"Under
boil weevil conditions it is considered
extremely important for each farmer
to raise as nearly all of the staple
food and feed crops as possible to
supply all needs Of the landlord, the
tenants, and the livestock. A survey
which was made of South Carolina in
1920 reveals the fact that this state
does not produce enough syrup to sup
ply the needs Of the rural population
OF the state by something like 3,OOO,-
600 gallons; that there is a deficit of
wheat Of more than 100000 bushels,
of hay of over 100000 tons, of hogs
OF 229, 900; and that we do not have
dairy cattle enough to supply the
needs of the rural population by 24O,-
O00. 1t was found also that there
were number of counties in the state
which did not produce corn enough to
supply the home needs.
"All of these things can be grown
at home much more cheaply than they
can be purchased from other sections,
and producing them should not inter-
fere with the production of staple
cash crops buC should round out a
well balanced cropping system. On
any farm on which good rotation
is followed for the purpose of build
ing up the soil fertility of the land and
maintaining system of diversified
agriculture, all of these crops can be

SUBSTITUTE CORN PRODUCTS
FOR BEANS, POTATOES, RICE

In view of serious shortage this
year in potatoes, beans, and rice, 9th
er starchy foods will be needed to take
their place on the label. The United
States Department of Agriculture
points out in conenction with this
situation that there is an abundance
of corn, and that not enough of it
is bein gused for human food, al
though it may, to a large extent, take
the place of the other three products
in the diet Corn products are not
exact equivalents fol potatoes, beans,
or rice, but may be used in combina-
tion with vegetables to supply maxi
mum of nourshment at low price.
There is opportunity, particularly
in the, Northern States, for an in
creased use of such products as hon.
my grits and corn meal. Specialists
in corn utilization state one reason
corn meal is used more in the South
ern States than nthe North is that
it is made only from sound grain
properly cared for, and has fine
flavor which justly gives it popularity.
