One of them will beat Orangeburg, where $50,000 was subscribed in 50 minutes at a business men's meeting a few days ago. The other packing-house will most likely be established in Greenville, ;i? the proposition has had the endorsement of the Chamber of Commerce. and a committee has been sent to study the pnckinir-house at Moultrie, Ga, A number of the individual members of the Chamber of Commerce have practically pledged stock subscriptions if the investigation shows that the proposition has a reasonable. chance of success. C (). Allen ' m<l \V. H.

The spirit of a meeting ' 1 held to-day indicates that there will t he no trouble in securing the neces- j jary stock subscriptions. t The hog census of the state was i [ conducted under the personal super- ( t vision of W. W. Long, state demon- i tration agent, and superintendent f of the extension work of Clemson t college. Mr. Long got reports from piratically every school district in the i t state through the county demonstra- t f tion agents, and asserts that the statistics are the most reliable and ac- ^ i curate ever collected in this state, j i They show that there were killed ? for home use In the state last fall j 64 2,629 hogs, and that 2*0,708 were { sold, making a total of over 870,000 , ! hogs. The census of 191 rt gave South f l Carolina 421.973 matured hogs. Mr. , Long's census gives estimates that . there will be 324,<109 hops for the j market this year, , The demonstration agents will as- < sist the packing-houses by encourag- , ing the farmers to raise more hogs t and better hogs, and a government , expert to assist, the business men in | the commercial a?Pprts of the mans- ( i gement of the packing-houses will probably be secured. The demonstration workers are ln' terested In the proposition In order to provide a market for the hogs t raised by the farmers, thus enabling - them to fortify themselves against I the approach of the boll-weevil. ' j FLY POISON DANGERS | Most fly poisons contain arsenic ? I "in deadly and rapid poison. In view! r of the extent to which such poison is' ^ kept in saucers about many houses | during fly time, let us boar in mind 4 that the pranks of children never J cease. In the past two years seven ty-two nasea are on record of children 1 ( being poisoned by playfully drinking , the contents of saucers set out for 1 flies. j Some of the children died, but 'j most of thorn, having prompt medical | treatment, recovered. Michigan now #] has a law regulating the sale of flyr' poisons. Hut a matter of this kind la often successfully coped with if the attention of intelligent people la simply called to the danger. We a ar(t not condemning fly poisons, but simply urge care In keeping th?m out V of the reach of youngsters. d' CAIW OF THANKS r! -j Wo wish to thank our many i friends for their kindness and symgjpathy shown us during the Illness n'and death of our beloved one, John I T.

In many a strenuous dissertn- ma ion he has visited his mighty scorn ,jir ipon the "doctorine." the mere orger of platitudes, in other words. he mere thinker.

That a niollyeod- ^ lie could accomplish this, with ease, jy the mere force and correctness >f his ideas, with no flourishing of he big stick, and accomplish it more . iTectually than all the Roosevelt ian ^ duster ever did?-that was Intolerible. But Wilson did not stop here. He ?ut through a remarkable, construe;ive program. The demand for tarifT 111 eduction and for reform of the bang- ' . is 11 ng system was just as insistent dtirng Roosevelt's administration as in ,irr {Vilson's. Vet. Roosevelt, the eouva- s,il *eou?. was afraid to attempt the to-n*r. and Itorsevelt, who does things, left i even thought about attempt- ,s|j ng tlie latter. And those were only i part of the achievements of the ' Wilson administration. That a mere WM doctorine should thus accomplish practical results, that a milk-and- f '' water weakling should manifest the m" highest courage?that l? unthinkahte "ll to a Red Rlooded person ',u sei Worst still, when the Huropean ^ complications promised relief, when it seemed almost inevitable that the school-teacher would plunge the nation into trouble and dishonor. Wilson maintained a strong hold on common sense and putrotism. He con- m tended consistently and continuous- ric ly for our rights under international l " law. Germany resisted, hesitated. "u and finally yielded every point. Austria blustered and backed up. The "n man who could not do things main- ^u' tallied every right and achieved every ' desirable result, up-to-date, which -4 the most successful and mo?t oxpensive war could have accomplished, o and did it without heroic posturing. 51 Of course the Red Itlooded could | J not stand for so egregious a wrong. ?? t was "doing things'" in a way that o hlngs could not he done, and hy a lerflon who could not do them, while 9 'he only Person * ho really knew how nd could, had nothing to do with It.
