HENS FOOLED BY LIGHT e

c
It probably was a mean trick to \
play on the hens and a violation t
of the principal of the eight-hour
day, but university scientists have \
proved that by electrically lighting {
the henhouse it is possible to make \
a hen produce 40 per cent more 1
eggs. c
The test was made at a Western j
university during the three months' i
period of November to January
last. At that time of the year the {
sun is not on the job in his ac- 1
customed manner. He rises late and t
sets early. As a result, during i
those months there always has been 1
a falling off in the production of '

OLEOMARGARINE AND NEWS.
Col. Pat Roche has organized a
new club and will have its secretary
j apply for a charter this week. The
principal place of business of the
club isthe office of the Southern Cotton
Oil Company, and the business of
the club is to keep up with all news
actual and prospective. The place of
business and the object suggested the
! the name, The Oleomargarine and
News Club, which Col. Roche immediately
bestowed on his creation. 1
The numberof members that it has
limited by the number of chairs inj
the office of the Oil Mill. The for-j1
tunate individuals who get a chair.1
are, Col. Roche himself, Hamilton 1
Stevenson, James Robert Woodhurst,]
Bill Cason and James W. Martin. Forj
! the present Col. Roche has appointed
himself president of the club, and
James W. Martin is acting as secre-J
tary.
The club meets every night, so Col.j
Roche told us Sunday night whenj
we passed. We are invited to pass,
that way on the road to the post of-1
fice, and "it will not be necessary to
hire a man to hunt up the news," as
the combined newsgathering talents'
of the members enables the president
to announce "whose cow will soon
be giving milk, and how many pups J
there are in the last litter," as we
were further informed.
We learned, too, that Col. Wood-'
hurst is about to be run out of Fort
Pickens. Since he moved over on that
side he has been studying cow-trading
under Roger Simpson and Dock (
Williams. Col. Roche tells us that he1
has proved such an apt scholar that|
he has swindled all the unsuspecting j
people in our most noted suburb, and f
that they are ready to get rid of him. j"
"If a band of Gypsies were to come "
through here now," says Col. Roche,!
"and Jim Robert were to get to trading
with them, the county wouid have ^
to pay their way out, or put tneni in
the poor house.
The Press and Banner lias estab- t
lished a good reputation with the j
club members as an advertising me-! t
dium. Col. Roche advises us that he ,
has just now learned how to sell any-' c
thing he wants to sell. The mule ,
which his brother Jim gave him so j
that ^he would not have to shoot it i
was sold recently to a Ft. Pickens p
rubber-tire farmer for a hundred g
dollars, so member Woodhurst stated. c
As soon as the charter comes, the'q
doors of the club will be opened for c
desirable members, ine cnarter mem- f
bers will continue to occupy the (
chairs and will be something like c
"preferred stockholders," but there ,
will be standing room in front, and -]
anyone who has the correct amount
of dues, and who knows now to pick J
up news and tell it after he has heard ?
it will be admitted to membership. : 1

New York, June 8.?Circumstances

INFORMATION AS TO WAR
CASULTIES INCOMPLETE
Columbia, June 8.?The complete
list of the men of South Carolina
who were wounded or killed in the
world war has been received from
the War Department by Adjutant
General Moore. However the adju
tant general is returning the list,
because of the fact that it does not
contain all the important information
that should be given. The cards
giving the records of the men who
became casuals does not show the
place where the men were wounded
or killed, and the adjutant general
is asking that this information be
inserted, in order that the parents
'and friends of the soldiers who
sacrificed may hare complete hisS
