Oiversifcation Keynote
Of Agents Meeting

Clemson College, July IA spe-
cial feature of the first day of the an
nual meeting of county agents and
specialists Of the Extension Service
consisted of a field demonstration in
busting cotton with calcium arsenate
when various kinds Of dusting ma
chimes were used. So many farmers
were present on Wednesday interest
ed in the same subject that the demon
stration was repeated for the general
public and explanations were made by
Frof. A. F. Conradi, entomologist.
concerning the use of the machines
and the general subject of poisoning.
Prof. Conradi emphasized that fight
ing the boil weevil is matter of year
round battling against the pest; that
neither poisoning alone nor any other
one thing will control the weevil; that
soil must be built up and cotton grown
only on land which will produce a crop
worth saving; that early poisoning
before square formation, whether
with dust, liquid, sweetened poison,
or anything else, is only minor op-
Grafton; and that weather conditions
in midsummer are most important de-
tcrmining factors.
A good part of Tuesdays discus
sions was given to the consideration
of hogs and dairy cows as important
factors in the reconstruction of our
agriculture. In thes discussions it
was brought out that because of our
climatic and soil conditions and our
ability to grow so many kinds of for
ages and feeds there is every heason
why livestock should play most i'm
portant part in our future farming.
Wednesday mornings discussions
centered around the so-called small
interests of the farm, in which it was
emphasized that poultry, bees, small
| fruits, ETC., are worthy of much more
serious consideration than farmers
Rave heretofore given them, and that
these may be made important income
producers.
i Other subjects 80 far discussed
IboNS pSSii Ihe VI UOyS CluU
work, in which it was brought out that
after all the biggest and best of all
farm crops is the crop of boys and
girls, which should therefore have
most careful attention; and the more
effective cooperation with local news
papers in promoting farm progress,
this discussion emphasizing the fact
that the local newspapers are not only
anxious to have county agents and
specialists serve the papers and
through them the farmers as local re-
porters of agricultural news and prog
ress, but that through such coopera.
tion county agents and specialists may
reach larger numbers of people and
therefore do much greater good.

Wood Alcohol

Every patron of bootlegger occa
sionally has a bad moment when he
wonders, if by any chance, the stuff he
has just swallowed puts him next on
the list Of wood alcohol's victims.
Methyl alcohol, commonly known as
wood alcohol, is formed by the de
structive distillation of wood. Also
il can be made from formaldehyde, in
tentionally or accidentally. You OBJ
serve the possibilities of synthetic
hooch made from alcohol that has
been "spiked" with formaldehype or
other persons, by government order,
to make it unfit for beverage pur-
poses.
A teaspoonful of wood alcohol is
sufficient to cause blindness, beginning
with double vision, falling of the body
temperature, loss Of sensation in the
nerve centers, and rythmic convul-
sions.
A drink of wood alcohol causes
blindness 90 times out of 100, and us
ually means certain death, though
sometimes the patient fingers for as
long as year.
Ethyl alcohol-the grain alcohol of
so-called pure whiskey, sought by
many, as the elixir Of youth-consists
Of combination of two atoms Of car.
bon, one of oxygen, six of hydrogen.
From that, take two atoms Of ny,
drogen and one of carbon, and you
have wood alcohol.
Funny, what difference Just u few
atoms make.-Editorial, Steubenvile
(O) Herald Star.

Sweden's Prohibition
Campaign Now Or

Stockholm, July 15.-Sweden's pro
hibition campaign, now at it's height
has become largely battle of stats.
tics. While the "dry" forces point
with pride to the fact that they have
won a victory in the Riksdag wher
that body voted to hold a consulta
tive plebiscite of the "wet" and "dry'
issue on August 81 Of this year, the
-prohibitionists are quoting gov.
ernment statistics and the reports OF
medical authorities.
The reports of the government dis
trict physicians scattered all over the
country are now being received by
the Swedish Medical Board which re-
Gently went on record against total
prohibition. Virtually all of the ply
sicians report that drunkenness APP
pears to be decreasing in their re-
spectivc districts, and that in many
parts of the country home e-brewing is
declining.
The Royal Social Boards latest re-
port shows that during the first quar-
ter of this year inebriety showed a
further decline, there being only s.
285 cases of drunkenness reported
throughout Sweden. The report sets
forth also that during 1921 Norway
and Finland, both prohibition coun-
tries, were more wet in spots than
Sweden with her liquor rationing sys-
tenn Thus during 1921 Sweden's
quarterly reports showed between T.
900 and 5000 cases of drunkenness
while prohibition Norway, with about
half of Sweden's population, had an
average of nearly 5000 cases of in
ebriety offffnses during each quarter.

1t becomes more and more appar
ent that the strike is to involve NOR,
and yet more of railway employees
and may possibly, even probably, GOV
er the entire groups of railway work
ers. The public will, az usual, be the
goat-always is. And murder, inccn
diarism and violence of all sorts vii
be much in evidence. Many of tn,
railways will make determined effor'
today to reopen their shops and We
may expect to read of many acts o
violence and bloodshed. The con
hict promises to be short, sharp and
we believe, decisive.

Splinter of Wood in
Eye Caused Death

Stockholm, July ia splinter of
wood in one eye caused the death of
DR.. Wolfgagn Kapp, the American
born German junker who tried to
overthrow the German republican
government about two years ago, and
who died recently in Germany. DR..
Kapp, who was residing in Sweden
at the time of his injury, neglected it,
and when at last compelled to con-
suit specialist examination of the
affected optic showed that a malig-
nant cancer had developed.
The injured eye was removed but
the cancer persisted, and when DR..
kapp returned to Germany he was
instantly arrested only to be taken to
the hospital where he died.
When DR.. Kapp's intended coup
d'etat failed, he secured false pass
port, fled to Sweden by airplane, and
won the governments permission to
remain in the country on the ground
that he was political refugee. He
was soon joined by his wife AMI
daughter, and the Kapp family set
tied on a beautiful country estate a
Hallekis. Here they spent nearly two
years, undisturbed by the postwar
crisis in world politics.
The Kapps lived simply and un-
ostentatively in Hallekis. Mrs. Kapr
did her own house work while DR..
Kapp attended to the outdoor duties
of the household. Like his former
imperial master, DR.. Kapp in his ex-
lie took up wood-sawing and split
ting, and it was while he was engaged
i'm splitting wood for the kitchen
range that he met with the injury
that led to his death.
During his residence at Hullekis,
DR.. Kapp proved to be anything but
the fire eating Prussian junker he
had been pictured At one crucial
point in the great war he challenged
Chancellor Bethmann-H Hollweg to a
duel, and after peace was restored
he planned to crush the unstable Ger
man Socialist regime with typical
Prussian ruthlessness. He actually
captured Berlin, drove the Ebert gov
ernment to Dresden, and rulel over
the German capital for five days.
Kapp was accused of being a reac-
tionary, working for the ultimate res
toration of the monarchy, but he al
ways strongly denied this.
The Swedes of the Hallekis COM
munity who had supposed DIR. Kapp
to be a roaring Prussian of the most
obnoxious military type, found him
a courteous and charming old gentle
man. He was kindly, democratic and
very social, frequently visiting the
neighboring farms and chatting with
the farmers and their workmen,
among whom he became very popu-
lar. His tendency to mingle on terms
Of equality with all classes probably
resulted from his early American
training, DR.. Kapp having spent his
early youth in New York City where
he was born in 1852. The people
who best knew DR.. Kapp in Sweden
describe him as model neighbor and
a genial gentleman.

Women Resist Passively

Sofia, Bulgaria, July 13.-Wh-r
Premier Stamboulisky conceived the
idea that it would be good thing tc
compel every able-bodied man and wo-
man in Bulgaria to work 10 days a
year for the state, he probably ex-
pected the trouble which has encucd
for he is described as a far-sighted
statesman with an active imagina-
ton. In any event he has entered the
lists to defend the weak spots in his
innovation, and his principal oppon-
ents are the young women of the land
In the first place the young moslenn
women of Bulgaria have refused poin!
blank to do a thing. They cite the
position given them in their homes by
their religion, and refer the authori-
ties to various groups of fathers and
brothers armed with knives, pistols
and rifles, who are violently opposed
to their female relatives donating
their labor to the state. The Premier
has proposed they be deprived of their
vote, and has threatened arrest The
women still resist passIvely. Now
Stamboulisky says they will work fo,
the government, or he will know the
reason why.
September will be interesting, foi
then the 1922 class of women will b.
called to labor without pay in public
buildings, gardens, ct cetera And
the women other than those of the
moslem faith say they will work when
the moslem women do, in the mean
time offering encouragement and sup
port to their belligerent sisters.
There also have been called to the
public gardens, as it were, profession
al men from the cities, men unused
to hard labor whose soft hands daily
attach white collars to silk shirts. In
the beginning they went through the
motions of work, but did virtually
nothing. Why labor when one could
soldier? Then the gang bosses gave
piece work; each man could quit when
his stint was done. AS result two
hours often sufficed for what previous
ly had not been completed in ten. But
little by little the bosses increased the
allotments, and now the inevitable re.
action has set in. The bourgeoisie
are daily complaining of sore backs
blistered hands; bad eyesight; sun
stroke; hunger; thirst, and other han
dicaps.
"These rotten bourgeois don't love
their country, are lazy and incapable -
declared Stamboulisky, exasperated at
not being able to force work out of
the men mobilized.
The law has given risen to many
amusing situations. 1t is pointed out
that Stamboulisky himself has not
done any work. AS cabinet minis
ter he is exempt. Likewise all peasant
field laborers, farmers and city work
men are exempt, and as the popula-
tion of Bulgaria is largely agricul-
tural the law applies mostly to pro-
fessionl men, such as lawyers, den
fists, doctors and shopkeepers.
The newspaper men turned out as
a body and did their work cheerfully;
found that it did them good physical
ly, and then went home to write anus
ing articles based on their experience.
