GAME ASSOCIATION
WOULD WAR ON PESTS

The Pullman Game Protective as
ISOLATION held its regular monthly
meeting in the city hall Monday
evening. The association went on
record as favorable to the Inaugural
ton of campaign on predatory ami
mails, rodents and birds and petit
toned the county game warden to
take steps toward arranging for a
contest among the eight game as
sociations of the county. 1t is pro-
posed to conduct the contest on d
point basis, giving a certain number
OF points for coyotes, squirrels.
hawks and other destroying pests,
the local association scoring the
greatest number of points during the
contest to be declared the winner.
1t is believed that the contest would
go long way toward Kidding the
county of destructive pests. Such a
plan has been followed in Columbia
and Garfield counties for several
years with great success. The To-
cal association also laid plans for
the enforcement of the game laws
during the open season on Hunga-
rian cartridges, October 16 to No

der case, now being tried at Twin
Falls, Idaho, when it became known
Sunday that Lester H. Thornberg,
vocational student at the State
College, is sought as character
witness in the case. Mr.. Thornberg
denies intimate acquaintance with
the Southland woman, stating that
he knew her only as an employe
of a restaurant in Twin Falls while
he was there and had met her once
at dance. He states a willingness
to go to Twin Falls as a witness il
he is called, but is of the opinion
that his testimony would not have
enough bearing on the case to war

The producer who thinks that he has

Best Cows are Cheapest.

1t is economy to keep good cows
1t is better to keep none at all than tc
feed and care for small producers
Why spend dollars worth of time
and feed on cow that only returns
SO cents? Yet many farmers in the
Southwest are doing that very thing,
To prove in concrete manner
why best cows are cheapest, testing
association in Missouri county made
some experiments, the result of
which should convince every farmer
who reads that it is economy and
good business for him to either re-
place his low producing animals with
better ones, or else join a purebred
sire association and breed for more
profitable results.
In the demonstration referred TO it
was learned that cow producing g.
900 pounds of milk and 400 pounds
of butter fat did so on feed cost of
17k cents per pound. Cows produc-
ing $500 pounds of milk and 300
pounds. of butter fat sent the price
up to 21 cents. The feed cost per
pound of fat for cows averaging A.
428 pounds of milk and 200 pounds
of fat was 1913 cents while for cows
averaging 2,239 pounds of milk and
100 pounds of fat the feed cost was
37.3 cents per pound.
The average cow in the Southwest
is 100 pound butter fat animal. The
owner of an average cow produces
butter fat at a cost of approximate
ly 81 cents per pound. Being an av-
erage cow, there must be large
number of even less merit as there
are many better animals. Does it pay
even the owner Of an average cow
to keep it? If it does not, what about
the owner of cows below the aver
age? The average Texas cow is said
to produce products of gross value
of $39 as compared with s1O0 for
the average Wisconsin cow. That ex-
plains why dairying in Wisconsin is
profitable and in Texas SO many lose
money.
Southwestern farmers must learn
to produce economically. They can
do this by keeping better animals and
by producing greater tonnage of bet
ter quality products per acre. An
acreage reduced to a size which will
permit proper care of the soil and
good cultivation at the right time,
and enough livestock of the better
kind receiving their support from the
farm, will bring the average farm
to basis where profit may reason
ably be expected.-Farm & Ranch.

Health Institute Held in
January.

Columbia, Dec. 3.-Colunbia has
been selected as on of the score OF
cities in the United States in which
will be held this winter week OF
Public Health Institute Work. This
is a noteworthy innovation and Co
lum5ia has been distinctively honor
ed. In the fall of 1920 there was held
in Washington an institute on So
4cial Hygiene and the control of We
nereal Diseases. This was attended
by more than 600 persons from all
sections of the United States.
So much interest was manifested
and so strong was the demand for a
REPETITION or continuance of the ma
tional institute that it was decided to
carry the institutional work nearer to
the people. 1t is compliment to the
activity of South Cardinals leaders
in the program of health that this
city was selected as the seat of an
institute, the only one between Mem
.phis, Tenn, and Charleston, S. c.,
and between Washington, D. c., and
Jacksonville, Fla. The institute will
bring to South Carolina as lecturers,
men and women of national reputa-
ton, and at the same time use will
be made of some of the brains and
talent of our own state. The an
nounced dates of January 9-14 and
DIR. j. Adam Hayne, State Health
Officer. will be the director of the
institute.
The actual work of setting up the
program is being left largely to DR..
C. V. Akin, U. S. Public Health Ser
vice, in charge of venereal control
work in South Carolina. DIR. Akin at
tended the national institute last
year, has a vast enthusiasm for the
work and is giving much attention to
the details of this winter school,
for doctors and others interested in
health promotion.
Topics to be Discussed.
Some of the subjects to be discuss
ed at these Institutes, for there will
be certain uniformity in the pro-
gram in the 20 cities fortunate
enough to be selected, will be as fol-
lows:
Tuberculosis, three lectures, early
diagnosis, treatment Of advanced
cases, and ultimate solution of the
problem.
Child Hygiene, six lectures, in
cluding prenatal, infancy, pre- school
mental hygiene, school hygiene, in
fant feeding, etc.
Nutrition in Health and Diseases.

Is the Best Policy.

This old time adage about honesty
is variously interpreted, but how
ever applier or for whatever motive,
if closely adhered to, most satisfac-
tory results are obtained. Some per-
sons accept the truth of the adage be-
cause they have a sensitive con-
science. They are inherently honest
and would suffer in peace of mind
should they yield to temptation of
tricking or knowingly cheating an
other. Others have found that as a
business proposition honesty in deal
ing pays dividends more regularly
than deceit.
1t is often said that there are
tricks in all trades, but under modern
conditions this does not necessarily
mean dishonesty. The expression is
generally applied to some technical
feature of business or some more
efficient way of performing some
mechanical operation.
Business men and business insti-
tutions are successful only when
their service is of such nature that
repeat orders are received with reg
ularity. Every contract made with the
consuming public must be carried out
both in spirit and to the letter. 1t is
the only way they can win and retain
the confidence of those upon whom
they depend for business. Millions of
dollars are spent in perfecting their
service. and this is true whether they
deal in professional matters or sell
merchandise. The confidence of the
public Unnecessary is to their continued
success. For this reason an advertised
brand of merchandise of proven mer-
it is always in good demand.
Now that producers and in this
case we mean farmers, are endeavor-
ing to deal more directly with the
consumers, it is we'll for them to
adopt as a slogan the adage, "Hon-
esty is the best policy" Many farm
ers, like many business men, are in
herently honest, but it is presump-
tious to say that every farmer is
square and above the petty tricks
used in deceiving and cheating GUS
toner. This class should consider the
policy of being honest from busi-
ness standpoint. The question of fu-
ture profitable relations with GUS
toner is often of greater weight in
determining a course of procedure
than conscience. The wise man will
decide on being honest, if for no 9th
er reason than that it is more profit
able in the end.
The producer who leaves his cot
ton out in the open because he thinks
it will gain weight from the rains

Should Develop Hog Industry.

Clemson College, Dec. 2-Twenty-
seven counties in South Carolina are
not producing sufficient pork to feed
even their. rural population, accord
ing to the animal hllsbandrymen Of
Clemson College, who are urging the:
conservative development of the hog
industry in this state as farm condi-
tions will justify, as the meat bill is
one of the biggest items in the gro
cery bill of the average South Caro-.
lima family. Four hogs averaging $50
pounds each will supply pork for the
average family of five. The farm
should produce this pork supply.
All feeds for hogs, save possibly
a little tankage, should be home
grown. 1t takes approximately ten
bushels of corn and sixty pounds of
tankage to produce 150-pound pig.
If the average family requires four
hogs, then it will take forty bushels
of corn and 24O pounds of tankage
to product these hogs. If buttermilk,
soy bean pasture, rape pasture, or
corn and velvet bean pasture is avail
able, it will not be necessary to buy
tankage. A splendid way to fatten
hogs is to turn them on corn and vel
vet beans and let the hogs do the har-
vesting.

that the effects of this institute will

Sale of Christmas Seals.

Among 100000 persons killed by
tuberculosis in the United States last
year nearly 1000 were South Caro-
| linians. This point, with other facts,
is made known in a statement made
yesterday by Rev. Hugh R. Murchi-
son, campaign director of the Christ
mas Seal sale in this state.
: Rev. Mr.. Murchison gives as the
official estimate of active cases of ,tu-
berculosis in South Carolina 10000.
During 1920 there were 1914 deaths,
yet there are only 160 beds to care
for patients. With only one bed for
every 100 active cases the people of
the state are being asked what is to
be done with the 80 cases out of eV-
cry 100 who through lack of treat
ment, either dies or continue. the
spread of the dread disease through
out the remainder of the population.
Death calls $4,000 children under
5 years of age each year in this coun-
try. More than SO per cent of all chill
dren are infected with tuberculosis
before they are 10 years old, and the
percentage increases until at 1S years
it reaches it's maximum of from 60
to 80 per cent.
One of/the aims of the South Caro-
lima tuberculosis association, states
Mr.. Murchison, is to seek out and re-
cord all cases of tuberculosis and to
provide treatment as matter of pro-
lection to the rest of society who
daily are endangered by the germ
which. kills thousands of the best cit
izens. The prevention and cure of
the disease depends large upon the
sale of the health bonds and Christ
mas seals.-Charleston American.
