QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

How should 1 treat sweet potatoe!
for disease control before bedding?-
A. H. NJ, Blair.
The best treatment is to soak fo,
lO minutes in solution of one ounce
Of corrosive sublimate to 8 gallons
of water. Farmers Bulletin No.
1859 will give further details concern
ing sweet potato diseases and me-
thods of preventing them.
Is it true that the land could not
take over 100 pounds of nitrate Of
soda on oats?-J. B. G., Yemassee
The information that you have had
that the land could not take more
than 100 pounds Of soda is incorrect.
More than 100 pounds would be Of
some value to you but doubt if it
would be profitable financially, for
It would likely not increase the WELD
d oats enough to pay you for the ex-
ira fertilizer.

CRIME INCREASE IN STATE

A marked increase in crime ir
|, South Carolina, is indicated by the
county jail commitment statistics just
given out by the State Board of Pub
lie Welfare. For the statistical wear
ending June 90. 1921, the total num-
Der of commitments to the county,
Jalls of the state was 1896, an in
crease Of almost 4S per cent over the
year before when the commitments
The dispatch-news. [volume] (Lexington, S.C.) 1919-2001, 1922-04-05
totaled only 1856,

The population Of the county chain
gangs shows a corresponding growth
OF population. In 1920 on the davs
oh "hlch the camps were visited by
! the representative of the board of
puhlc welfare the population was
S15 negro and 50 white men. In
1921, however. the population
showed 1.240 negroes and 200 whites
total growth OF Approximately 40
per cent.
The alarming increase in crime
that these figures show may be at
tributed. in large part. TO the eco
nomic reverses suffered by the neo-
pie Of the state. Money can with diff
ficulty be obtained by justifiable
methods so the unprincipled and needy
nave oftentime resorted to illega
means of getting livelihood. Be- i
sides, the number Of persons arrested |
Tor violation Of the prohibition law !
has swelled the number of commit
ments.
This increase, however, does not
seem so serious when viewed in COM
parisOn with the statistics for other
years. In 1916, for example. Just
tive years previous, the commit
nents totaled approximately 1l.743.
Fhe commitments for 1921 are ac-
ually per cent less than they were
or 1916, even though the 4S per
ent increase over those for 1920 is ,
ute unprecedented.
