. SPECJACLES FOR COWS.
fi'
j; \ .5 Many people, no doubt, have been
puzzled by the item, "spectacles for
cows," which appears in the long list
qf articles required by Russia. It is
*> . ' not that the Russian cows, are more
. intelligent than tliose of other countries,
explains the London Chronicle
and have ruined their eyes in the
intervals between chewing the^ cud,
buf simply that the vast tracts of
snow on the plains where the animals
are allowed to graze during the ear.
. ly spring sets up. troublesome eye
' * affections very often leading to blindness.'
? - Several years ago an Englishman
?*. ' , Mine to the rescue of the cows by in-venting
a special' form of spectacles
made of brown glass. These are fas:
' , tened around the horns of the animals
by an ingenious arrangement
of leather straps. The manufacture
of these cows' spectacles formed a
considerable business,' sufficient to
keep a good size'd factory employed
all the year round.
ry ~ . . i '
11; The supply of these spectacles is!
running low, and as they have proved
to be of real service there is renewed
demand for them. The cows
need the spectacles as a protection
to their eyes, but not to read with.
. That's all there is to this story
about spectacles for cows.

HOW FEDERAL AID STANDS
. AT THE END OF FIVE YEARS
\
On June 30, 1921, the close of the
fifth fiscal year since the passage of
of the Federal aid road act which is
administered by the Bureau of Public
Roads, United States Department
of Agriculture, the States and Federal
Government had completed 7,469
miles of road, and 17,977 miles
were upder constructoin. Including
the work completed on projects still
under construction, the States have
completed work which entitles them
to draw on the Federal Treasury for
$118,915,515. There is also a balance
allotted (but not yet earned on
projects now under construction
amounting to $66,375,636 Of the
two appropriations which have been
made for Federal aid there is now
. only $18,793,444 remaining unobli
r# y
\ >' - ?' \
\
gated their entire alotment and se\
eral others have only a small amoui
to their credit.
During the last fiscal year tl
total of completed projects jump*
from 1,677 to 7,469 miles ans tl
projects under construction increa
ed from 14,940 to 17,977 miles. Th
money earned by completion of wor
has grown from $40,097,881 a ye?
ago to $118,915,515 at the end <
this fiscal year. The amount earne
during the year was $78,817,634 (
nearly twice as much as the amour
earned during tfle four years pri
ceding.
The new projects submitted du:
ing the year bring the total amour
of Federal aid obligated up to $24'
956,456,. as compared with $f0!
830.366, which was the amount obi
gated on June 30, 1920. At this ra1
it is expected that the small balan<
of $18,000,000 still unobligated wi
be taken up in a very short time.
The month of June was a recor
month in every, way The mileag
completed projects increased b
more than 1,200 miles, more thla
twice the amount reported for th
month of May. Funds, allotted t
work actually under construction ir

STATE SUPREME COURT
MEETS NEXT TUESDA
t
Columbia, Oct. 4.?Tuesday o
next week the South Carolina . Su
preme Court starts its Fall term, an
a number of important cases will b
heard. The court will be in sessio
far into November.
One of the ^unusual legal situ*
tions to face the court will be tha
embracing the two Sande\ cases, on
being appealed by the fctate, the de
fense, and the other appealed by th
plaintiff. J. O'Neal Sandel, of Co!
houn county, sued the state in tw
cases for $50,000 each, for the deat
of his two daughters, which he a
i j j? 4. !.^:
legeu was uue tu me uat: ui typiu/i
serum furnished by the state boar
of health. In one case Sandel wo
a verdict of $25,250. In the other th
state won. Both are on appeal.
< Another interesting case on a]
peal is that of Carlps Corbet
Orangeburg county man who wf
charged with murder. Corbett wi
acquitted of the charge of murde
ing Bryan Salley, for which he m
treid in September 1920. He jio
alleges, that on the ground of forn
er jeopardy, he cannot be tried f<
the murder of Julian Cooper an
Hugh Fannin, both of whom he kil
ed at the same time he killed Brys
Salley, in March 1920. Corbett a
leges that the three men were kille
:n one and the same act, all const
(uting ope offense, and that he Cai
not" be charged with, three separal
murders. The case will be heard b
an en banc session of the court ne?
Monday, the next before the regula
term starts. All of the ' circu
judges will sit with the suprem
court on this case.
Still another interesting case o
appeal is that of the' state agains
the Palmetto National Bank, of C(
lumhia, involving the charge by th
bank aga'nst the state of the amour
of two checks on which the ban
failed .to realize because of the liqu
dation of a bank at Greenwood.
Still another appeal to be hear
by the court is that of Edmund I
Bigham, now in the death house o
the penitentiary charged with ha>
ing murdered his brother, and als
1 !i.L l r
cniirg^u vwn me muraer ox ms m<
ther, his sister and h's sister's tw
adopted children.
The appeal of J. E. Harris, Co
lumbia dentist, from the decision o
the lower court, which sustained th
>tate board of dental examiners i
their action in disbarring Dr. Hai
ria, will be heard at the Fall term o
the court.
It is probable that, the appeals o
S. J. Kirby and Jesse Gappins, tw
of the trio found guilty of the mui
der of William Brazell, Columbi
,axi-driver, will also ' come befor
the court at thi?s term.
