LITTLE DEMAND FOR SNAKES.
RattIers Now Bring Only Eight Cents
a Pound, According to Dealer m,
in the Reptiles. "

The rattlesnake catchers of the
Brownsville, Texas, district are going
through a period of severe depression,
as live snakes at present are bringing
only 8 cents a pound, according to Z.
Gilbert Pearson, president Of the Ma
tional Association Of Audubon Soci-
eties, who has just returned from the
work Of stalking out proposed l3O,-
OOO-acre tract in the southern tip of
Texas as q game and bird sanctuary.
The greatest rattlesnake establish
ment in the world is maintained near
Brownsville by q dealer named King,
known as "Rattlesnake King" He had
more than 100000 rattlers In stock
during December, Mr.. Pearson said.
These are sold to geological gardens,
snake charners, circuses, naturalists
and snake lovers all over the country,
but the demand has recently become
low. Many Mexicans earn their living
catching rattlers and are glad to get
even 8 cents pound for them.
Mr.. Pearson's mission was under
taken at the request of the depart
ment of agriculture for the purpose,
of mapping out great game preserve
in the extreme south Of Texas, where
a stretch of sandhills exists on which
are found between twenty and thirty
species Of birds, including game bros

Denied His Lord.

Rev. DR.. Abernethy of Washing
ton, who opened the Disarmament
conference with prayer, is no doubt
sorry now that some other minister
of the gospel did not have that "hon-
orr" for he is catching it'' from all
sides, and justly, because, in obedi--
ence to some one "higher up"-Gov.
Cox says it was Lodge-he "deleted"
the name of Jesus Christ from his
prayer-out of respect for the
presence of followers of Confucius
and Mohammed in the conference.
That was spectacle for men and
angels, wasn't it? DR.. Abernethy is
sorry enough now for his weak COM
pliance with some slack-twisted
Christiaan's request or suggestion;
but he has not the manhood to ac-
knowledge his error. On the contrary
he tries to defend it by such spe-
cious arguments as. any Christian
man ought to be ashamed of; such as
"I am willing to bear the entire re-
sponsibility for it myself"-which he
will have to do, anyhow, for it would
be no excuse to put the blame on his
prompter-that would make his own
case worse because the bare sugges-
tion of leaving "Christ" out of his
prayer ought to have been so repug-
nant to his feelings as to make it ut
terly impossible. So he did it, not un-
thinkingly, but deliberately. AS one
has expressed it he "denied his Lord"
as Peter did. But he has not shown
Peters honesty; his sorrow comes not
from genuine repentance for his de-
NAL but from the revulsion of feel
ing that has manifested itself in the
hearts of others-not sorrow for his
act, but sorrow for the way Christian
persons regard it.
He attempts to defend himself by
such sophistry as this: 81 believe that
1 can pray in the name of Christ with
out mentioning the word" Of course
he can. There need not be any word
at all in prayer iso the
hearts sincere desire, uttered or un-
expressed" but neither DR.. Aber-
nethy nor any other person can de-
liberately and publicly suppress the
name of Jesus Christ "out of cour-
tesy" to Buddhists and Confucianists,
or anti-Christ of any name or nation,
without by that act denying his
Lord.
If DR.. Abernethy had acknowledg-
ed his wrong there might have been
some respect and sympathy for him.

Green Sweet Potatoes.

Clemson College, April 10.-The
growing of sweet potatoes for early
market, to be sold "green" in July,
August and September Especially
july, instead of being placed in
storage for later sale as "cured" po-
tatoes,is matter well worth consid-
ering by those farmers who can grow
early potatoes, suggests the Exten-
tion Service in calling attention to
the report of committee appointed
recently by Director W. W. Long 20
draw up policy for developing the
sweet potato industry in South Caro-
lima. That part of the policy commit
tees report which deals with green
potatoes is as follows:
"Where climatic and soil condi-
tions warrant, there is an opportu-
nifty to grow early sweet potatoes for
shipment green in July and up to Au-
gust 10. But it must be remembered
that a large volume of early sweet
potatoes is shipped from North Caro-
lima and Virginia, commencing about
the first of August, and that on ship
ments to Eastern markets South Car
olina will have to compete with the
above mentioned sections in August
shipments.
"The majority of markets prefer
to buy green sweet potatoes packed
in standard barrels. The other con-
tainers are the bushel hamper and
the standard crate.
ga minimum car is considered to
be around 500 bushels or $50 bar
rels. The shipper should be certain
that he has carload of potatoes be-
fore attempting car lot shipment"
In, order to get potatoes ready for
July and August shipment, it is nee
essary to plant early, and while it
may be that comparatively few grow
ers will be able to ship green pota-
toes this season, the possibilities of
this phase of marketing potatoes
should be kept in mind. Growers who
can not ship in car lots Individually
may be able by cooperating with
neighboring farmers to make up car
lot shipments.

ulo Salvation Army. New York City
has $500,000 drive on for their
work. The chairman of the commit
tee, Mr.. James Speyer, is head of the
banking firm of Speyer G. Company.
Mr.. Speyer is also one of the vice
presidents of the Association Against
the Prohibition Amendment.
When the newspaper reporters in
formed Commander Evangeline Booth
that Mr.. Speyer was "wet," she
said: "Mr. Speyer is an old and es-
teemed friend Of the Army, but l
think he will have to change his views
if he is to continue as chairman of
our drive. Our stand with respect to
prohibition is what it has always
been, absolutely tee-total."
Because of this consistent attitude
the "wets" are trying to punish her.
She refuses to recede, and will stand
regardless of costs. One of New
York's great politicians who has the
power to do what he says, has practi-
cally threatened to withdraw the Sal
vation Army's permission to solicit
in the streets, on the ground that this
utterance of Miss Booth is 'spolitics. I"
Miss Booths address is 12O West 14th
Street New York City.
We cannot and must not forget the
splendid work of this organization
during the war days. Then they sacri-
fl ed and rendered glorious service
for the brave men at home and on
foreign fields. The thirty organiza-
tions that are opposed to National
Prohibition are certainly desperate
when they resort to such measures.
Let every ex-service man that appre-
ciates the services the Salvation
Army rendered during the great
World War, send encouragement to
Commander Booth. Fair play must
win.

Endorse Swearingen For Gov
ernor.


That John E. Swearingen, state su-
perintendent of education, would
have no lack of backing in school cir
cles should he cast his hat into the
gubernatorial ring this summer was
made clearly evident at the meeting
of county superintendents of educa-
ton held in this city.
The resolution which was adopted
almost unanimously by the county
superintendents of education, has
Just leaked out and yesterday when
Mr.. Swearingen was asked about it
he expressed the wish that nothing
be said about it, as he has yet made
no announcement that he would run
for governor and he said he feared
the schools might suffer from the ru-
NOR.
1t has been the custom of Mr..
Swearingen for number of years to
assemble the county superintendent
of education in Columbia soo1. after
the close of the meeting of the legis-
lature, so that he might discuss with
them the new laws which had been
passed with regard to the public
schools. These. meetings have been
found very helpful and have been
well attended. This year every county
in the state, except about IL, had its
superintendent of education at the
meeting.
1t is understood that at one of the
conferences a county superintendent
arose and proposed that the meeting
of superintendents go on record as
Endorsing Mr.. Swearingen's candida
cy for governor should he enter the
race.
At the time Mr.. Swearingen was
in the chair and he at once ruled the
motion out of order and it did not
come to a vote. Later during the
meeting, when S. j. Wall, superin-
tendent of education of Marion, took
the chair, the matter was again
broached, and the resolution was
adopted heartily. Since Mr. swearin-
gen had not announced any intention
of running for governor, it was
agreed, according to rumors on the
street, to make no mention of the
resolution through the public prints
lest the schools should suffer.
When Mr.. Swearingen was ap-
preached yesterday and asked about
the rumor, he was found willing to
talk about the schools of the state
and their prospects, but would say
little as to the possibility of his run
