GOES DOWN WITH SHIP
Chauffeur Ends Life Beeause OF Fai''
ure/to Save Car. .s


A chauffeur may have code OF honor
similar to that of the traditional sea
captain, as was discovered by Georges
Menier when his motor car was oadiy
damaged. M. Mcincr had gone to "a
suburb in his new automobile and, de-
Gliding to remain. there, ordered ms
chauffeur to take the car back 70
Paris. Later in the day his brother,
driving along the road In his own care
found nj. Menier's automobile SMASH
ed along the roadside and abandoned.
Failing to find the chauffeur ne
went to the next village, where he as
contained the man had been there and
departcd, leaving a letter addressed
to his employer which read: "Sir: You
entrusted a new motor car to my
charge. I have not been able to keep
il undamaged. I shall not survive
this dishonor."
The letter went on in the form OF
a will in which the chauffeur asked
the permission of: his employer to pe-
queath, his savings, amounting to
about $3.50, to his young daughter OF
seventeen. The body of the chauffear
was found later in stream near the
village. =,
Another curious feature is the 'fact
that because the chauffeur in this let
ter admitted his responsibility. the
owner of the automobile will be iun-
able to collect insurance, as according
to the French law. the admission OF
the chauffeur releases the company of
it's obligations.

SOUTH CAROLINRN FARMS
Agricultural Faets and Figures of Un-
usual Interest,"

usual lntcTesI't
A recent investigation conducted by
r. b. Hare, agricultural statistician Of
the bureau Of crop estimates, United
States department OF agriculture. rel
ativc.. to food rcquircments:i :in south
t-CdrTrITT, SHOWS the following Average
quantities Of fcod Stuffs consumed
per person per month: II pounds Of
flour: pounds Of pork (catcn or uti-
liZcd in 'cooiing); pounds of other
meat: IA pounds of sugar Gnclnding
that used in cooking, canning pre-
serving fruits. etc) 16 cgGs: and {
gallons OF milk including cream and
whole milk.
II is Observed from the report that
81 per cent. OF the wheat flour con-
sumcd last year was grown within the
statc. while G3 per cent Of the meat,
81 per cent Of milk and butter con-
Sumcd were produced within its bor-
ders.
1t appears that each person within
the state consumes an average Of ID.
pounds ni flour annually. Therefore.
if We have Il population of 1,G9O,D00 il
will require approximately 5,1OO,0oo
bushels OF wheat TO supply our yearly
needs. The total production for the
state in 1920 has been estimated ut L.
7S5$bO bushels, or about 100000
bushels less than our annual require
mcntS.
The average pork requirements per
pc"s0E is shown tu be about ST il,oundS
annually. I'm other words it will re-
ruirc one hog netting 16S pounds to
supply the necCs Of two persons each
year. or il will take about $4,000 OF
such hogs 10 meet tho states annual
requirements. However, should the
hogs net $50 pounds each the number
could he reduced To about 100000. II
would he OF interest to know which
would be r1nrc economical for the state
rs i whole TO raise 100000 hogs net
ting $50 pounds each or $4,000 hogs
of 1GS pounds each.
Further observations made from this
nvc%ti tiralion are to the effect that the
average distance Of I'LL furmS in tho
state from market. is approximately I
! miles. and the average size load from
farm To market is 1879 pounds, the
average size load from market to farm
being 1922 pounds.
The average nu:?lbcr OF days spent
annually per farm in hauling produce,
fertilizers, etc. to and from market Is
| estimated ut ~ days. or Il little less
than . per cent. uf all work days. inc
total number Of motor trucks in the
state used exclusively for farm pur-
poses is estimated ut 1.S33 and the
n;nhcr OF farm tractors at 1856.
Mir. Hare states that another inter-
rStinE feature of the investigation us
| shown by the tHbulatcd results of Il
large nr:mhrr of reports of ta"mer:;
! :rcm AL sections of the state. is that
only 81 per cent. ui the amount OF
commercial fertilizers used in 1920
will he used in 1921. However. Il very
large percentage of the last years
crop of cotton seed will not he sold
M exchanged for fertilizers. as has
! been the prHctivr hcretuforc. but Will
he put lack on the farm from which
| they were obtained.
