HENS EGG-LAYING

Of twelve years. claims James Dry,

Husbandry.
"A sure way to increase egg pro-
duction is by selective breeding based
on annual trap-neSt records" saws

from high record hens to produce high

record Of over 1000 eggs each. the
ancestry of all can be traced to 1000

The best results can be obtained
by not only breeding the best layers
to males Of the best layers. but by
breeding the best breeders TO the best
breeders Judging from the egg records
Of their progeny. While the annual
records are certain criterions the
best two months production is fair
ly accurate basis on which to select
hens Of best laying capacity. and may
prove more valuable in selecting
breeders. as a large number OF eggs
over a short period indicates inherited
ability to lay while environmental
factors may interfere with the neces

duction.

producers decreases the number OF

as the amount OF variation IN the

fowls 10 not decreased by the selective

the new doctrine laid down by the
court will prevent this.
The doctrine of appeals under
which the courts have been laboring,
as laid down in the State VS.. Lee, and
interpreted in subsequent cases, has
led to condition" in the language OF

ais may by successive motions and ap-

Justice Thwarted.
This condition has been confront
ing the law enforcement department
of the government for some time, SO
much so that in several notorious
cases substantial justice has been
thwarted. When Judge Mauldln
granted a new trial to Cliff Hawkins
on the ground of after-discovered
evidence as to his mental condition,
the State, through the office OF Sam
NJ. Wolfe, Attorney General, appeal
ed for the main purpose of having
the case of state VS.. Lee reviewed IN
an effort to have the Supreme Court
ascertain if new doctrine on ap-
peals could not be evolved.
The Supreme Court realized the
gravity of the situation in a time
when crime is rampant, for, IN the
opinion. it uses these words: Per
haps this tribunal was never called
upon to meet a greater responsibility
than that which now confronts it.;
nor was it ever more loudly called
upon to use it's judicial powers in a
proper way to avert deplorable con-
dition. a condition that is not calcul-
ated to enhance respect for law, and
it's enforcement, and which as mat
ter of fact would have contrary ef-
feet. It was never intended by the
trainers and makers of our Constl-
tuition and laws that the condition
referred to should exist and there
must be some legal way to avert it.
We have the opportunity and it
remains to be seen whether or not
we have the disposition and the ab-
flity to point out that way.
Recently the State Supreme Court
adopted what is known as "Rule 3O'
in which it was decreed that frlVo-
lous appeals would not be looked on
with leniency by the court, but the
doctrine laid down this afternoon
will put stop delayed justice and
speed up the execution of the SEN
tences of the courts.

The Greater State Fair.
The WillistOn Way.

The Williston Way.
The much that had been said about
the greater State Fair to be held this
year made one look for something dis
tinctively better though South Caro-
lima has a right to be proud of her
state fair of the past. To those
thousands and thousands who at
tended the fair in Columbia last week
it is unnecessary to say that this was
the greatest of the state fairs. Pro-
badly the most noticeable improve
ment were the several new buildings
and the improvement in the grounds
though the exhibits were better than
ever seen before by us. It would be a
revelation and inspiration to the peo-
pie of South Carolina if the exhibits
of say twenty years ago could be
placed alongside those of today. How
wonderful have been the strides in
the raising of pure bred hogs, cattle,
poultry to say nothing of the pedi-
greed crops of all kinds! Of course, as
in former fairs, more time can be
spent in the steel building than any
where. The exhibits there were
splendid The Pine View, Midway and
other exhibits from Lexington county
were particularly interesting in that
they show the possibilities and bene-
fits from community fairs. In al
most every exhibit could be seen
sweet potato crates made in Willis
ton by the Green Lumber & Crate
Company. These crates could be
spotted by their superior appearance
over other crates. The Pacific Mills
(Columbia) exhibits were very inter-
esting, especially to one who had
been previously engaged in textile
work. 1t would be revelation to
many to know just what these mill
villages of Columbia are doing along
lines of gardening, domestic science.
fancy work, etc. South Carolina, from
mountains to sea, should back up
the State Fair. 1t has much poten-
tial good for all. Out Of this big fair,
there should grow more county and
community fairs. Let's see if Will
liston cannot have Community Fair
another year. What do you say2

Columbia, Nov. 3.-A new doctrine
of appeals on after discovered evi-
dence in criminal cases was enunciat'
ed by the State Supreme Court today
in affirming an order of Circuit Judge
Mauldin granting a new trial to Cliff
Hawkins, convicted at Greenville OF
murder and sentenced to be electro
cuted.
The opinion was written by Judge
Frank B. Cary, of the Eighth Judicial
Circuit and was concurred in by four
Justices of the Supreme Court and the
circuit judges sitting en- banc on Sep
tember l, at which sitting the HaW-
kins case was reviewed. Associate
Justice r. C. Watts dissenting.
The opinion holds that motions
for new trials on after discovered
evidence should be made to circuit
courts or judges when they have
not been deprived Of jurisdiction
by appeals to the Supreme Court
through the handing down of remit
titur by that tribunal; but, if the
case is pending in the appellate court,
a motion should be made to it to sus-
pend the appeal so that the motion
for a new trial can be heard before
the lower court. The opinion likewise
holds that, if the Supreme Court has
already passed on the appeal, and its
Judgment has been remanded to the
lower court, then an appeal on after
discovered evidence must be heard
before the Supreme Court, and if the
cause is meritorious that tribunal
will take proper steps to have the mo-
tion heard by the Circuit Court.
Do Not Return to Lower Court.
Should the date for an electrocu-
ton already have been set, the opin-
ion holds, then an appeal to the
Supreme Court should be made in
sufficient time on the grounds of
after discovered evidence; but, if
time is limited, the Governor can be
requested to extend the date Of the
sentence, upon proper showing, and
the appellate court will hear the mo-
tion anyway, and, should the appeal
be refused, there will be no necessity
of returning to the lower court to set
a new date for electrocution.
The rule heretofore has been that,
should the motion for new trial be
refused by the circuit judge, then an
appeal would be taken to the State
supreme court which must hear it..
Should the circuit court be affirmed
in it's judgment and the appellant be
sent back for re-sentence, he could
then make another motion for new
trial, and again appeal from the re-
fusal of the circuit judge, and con-
tinue this almost interminably, so
much so that the dictum, "a man with
sufficient money to continue hiring
lawyers, if convicted Of murder and
sentenced to death. need never to be
executed" has almost became legal

A change in the personnel Of the ex'

fair was given, Carl Russell was ap-

the law automatically became secre-
tary of the fair association. Mr.. West
having resigned TO assume his duties as
county farm agent of Canadian county,
Mr.. Russell began his task with a
vim, and soon had farmers preparing
crops and herds with the object of
making q big display at the fair. and
the third annual event brought the
association to such favorable notice
that 1t became a fixture for a certainty.
Mr.. Russell continued in this ca

resigned his post was filled by the
present county agent, John w. Simp-

year as secretary.
