Accidents in Berlin
Have Increased 100 Percen,

Berlin, Feb. 13.-The fact that
street accidents in Berlin have in
creased 600 percent since 1913 has led
to the suggestion that one of the
causes may be the apparent effort to
put American "pep" into the city's
everyday life. One newspaper writ
er asserts Berliners have become too
busy to greet friends in passing, that
the spirit of hustle is disturbing the
general routine, and that the citizens
on the whole are growing nervous.
He deprecates 'the attempt to make
Berlin street life look like Forty.
Second street and Broadway"
Official reports say most of the ac-
cidents are due to speeding automo-
biles and careless pedestrians, "who
step off the sidewalks and walk the
streets in every direction without
once looking to see if they are in the
way Of vehicular traffic."
There is no ordinance regulating
pedestrian traffic. Even at the more
crowded intersections the people
cross cross the streets at will, TAX
ing their chances with automobiles
street cars, omnibuses, trucks, and
horse cabs.
There are no traffic policemen in
the Teuton metropolis, but it has
been decided to, establish such a
force. In the meantime the "Securi-
ty police" ore -4Sairg this duty. 'ssss..
The bicycle habit Is very popular
with all classes, and particularly
with the police, who ride in squad
formation. 1t is not uncommon to
see man rugged out in top hat and
evening clothes riding his "bike" to

sage of the billalso is advocated by

Washington, D. c., be eliminated
A copy of resolution unanimously

In addition to authorizing an expen-
diture of $16,OO0,000 for hospital fa
cilities the bill provides that all con-
struction work shall be under the di
rection of the supervising architect
of the treasury who in the past has
had charge of all hospital activities.
Advocating immediate legislation
authorizing an appropriation of $16,-
100000 to be Immediately available
and to remain available until expend
ed,' the disqualification board declared
in its resolution "that it is the sense
Of this board, and it so recommends,
that all hospitals hereafter erected
shall be constructed Of freproof
type, and that the location and nature
thereof, whether for the treatment of
tuberculosis, neuropsychic or gen
eral medical and surgical cases, shall

struction of new hospitals or dispen-
saries or in the alteration, remodeling

manner in which such construction,
alteration, remodeling or repairing
may be done and he Is authorized to
require the architectural, engineering,
constructing or other forces of any
Of the departments Of the govern
ment to do, or assist In any such

Hog Sale at Clemson College

Clemson College, Feb. 9.-The ami
NAL husbandry division of Clemson
College sold here at public auction on
Wednesday, February 8, a. bred sows
at an average of S51.25. The sale in
cluded Ia Poland Chinas and 80 Duroc
Jerseys, the average for the two
breeds being practically the same.
Most of the hogs were sold to farm
ers in the upper part of the state, the
majority goingto Anderson and Green
vile counties. T. D. Wood, of Foun-
tain Inn, was the largest buyer, his
purchases amounting to ten. Only two
were sold to an out-of state buyer.
Tom Graham, Columbia auctioneer,
conducted the sale with the assistance
of Prof. l.. V. Starkey, chief of the
animal husbandry division, and
Messrs. w. j. Sheely. e. G.. Godbey,
w. d. Salmon, and S. D. Wins, live
stock specialists of the division. There
was an attendance of probably 200
farmers from various Piedmont coun-
ties.
This was the first of series of hog
sales, which the animal husbandry di-
vision will hold from time to time,
with the primary purpose in view of
enabling farmers who desire good
foundation stock to buy at reasonable
prices under an absolute guarantee of
satisfaction by the college. Such
sales, therefore, are m the interest of
service to the farmers rather than
profit to the animal husbandry di-
vision. The visitors, even those who
did not buy, were greatly proiited
through the opportunity of seeing the
college herds and getting good ideas
about purebred livestock.

"The Lost Leader"

Senator Kenyon, accredited and ad-
mitted Farm Bloc" leader, sick a.
heart over "Newberryism." piqued,
disillusioned, tired of the Senate and
politics, yields to the Administration
lure Of a Federal judgeship, and the
Senate places that have known him
for eleven years will know him no
more.
Predictions that the Farm Bloc"
will now break down and blow up
with a loud bang are in order. Not
yet. 1t is blow, of course, but other
leaders have been pressing the some
what slow, cautious and always con.
servative Kenyon. His resignation
may prove a bad turn for a countr!
facing a class conscious bloc just now
beginning to taste blood. His sue.
cessor may not be as sound always
as Kenyon or as sane and cautious
There will be n successor, and tht
movement Kenyon headed will move
along TO its appointed end. That
may be two years or it may be NOR:
than two. That depends upon the
grievances that created it and the
conditions that bred these grievances
When farm prices level up and other
prices level down, the storm will be-
ending and the political ground-swel
only will remain.
The movement is bigger that Ken.
yon. who was no more than it's sena.
torial spokesman and fgurehead. 1,
is bigger than any man in it. The
stubborn wielders of the sickle anc
the snicker-snee viii find anothe,
chieftain. He may be Capper, whose
ambitions have been challenging Ken
yon. 1t Nigh be Norris or, as politi
cal charts change, it may be some
Democrat, for this movement cuts
square across both the old parties
One thing is sure: the movement
will find leadership or make it.

.iumor Possessed by
Late Viscount Bryce

Tampa, Fla, Feb. 13.-The sense
of humor possessed by the late Vis-
count Bryce, formerly British Am
bassador to the United States, who
passed away recently in England,
was strikingly illustrated at ban
quet rendered the statesman here
some years ago by the Tampa Boar:
of Trade.
The orchestra at the hotel where
the banquet was held was composed
of Tyrolese, none of whom could
speak English. William B. Powell,
formerly widely known middle west
ern and eastern newspaper and ad-
vertising man, then Secretary of the
Board of Trade, was charged with
the preparation of the musical pro-
gram and he undertook to instruct
the orchestra leader that when the
POSTMASTER did the honors to Great
Britain and the Ambassador and the
assemblage arose and lifted glasses
for the toast, the orchestra should
play "God Save the King" To be
certain that the leader understood his
instructions Powell whistled a few
bars of the British national anthem.
The auspicious moment arrived.
The toastmaster feelingly spoke of
the cordial relations between Great
Britain and the United States, pro-
posed toast to the mother country
and her ambassador, the company
arose-and the orchestra burst out
with "There'll Be A Hot Time In The
Old Town Tonight"
The guests were. struck dumb and
all eyes turned toward Mr.. Bryce.
That gentleman began to laugh. He
laughed until the tears streamed
down his face.
When the orchestra concluded it's
rendition of the air so popular with
the Army and Navy during the Span
ish-American war the party applaud
ed loudly and the musicians, feeling
highly honored by the acclaim, played
it again.
Mr.. Bryce was so greatly amused
at the incident he took steps to see
that the newspapers in Great Britain
recorded it and from that source it
went all over the world.

HIGH SPEED FARMING

Director Of New Methods Of

Chicago. Ill. Aug. IA reason
for the marked increase In high

was given by Guy H. Hall. director OF
the National Institute OF Progress
sive Farming, today. as result OF
study OF figures from the Central
Experimental Farm OF the Dominion
OF Canada and OF the Oklahoma Ex-
pertinent station.
THE necessity for the use OF

these figures when II was observed

the very time wheu the other farm

must do everything at once. as II
were, and the only way he can do 1t
is with the most modern mechanical
aids"
At the Oklahoma station, accord
ing to Mr.. Hail, plowing was done at
three different dates July 10. when
the ground was in the proper state
OF moisture; August Is, when II was
hard and lumpy; September III.
when 1t was dry and cloddy. Each
plot was seeded September is. The
Yields were July 10. Sl3 bushels OF
wheat: August Is, 2s.5 bushels OF
wheat; September IL, 1853 bushels
The station concludes "earlu plow
ing for wheat is profitable and II
wheat follows oats. the soil should be .
plowed Immediately after the oat
crop is harvested.
In the Canadian experiment, de-
lay OF one week in seeding wheat
resulted in 20 percent decrease: OF
