NUMEROUS POSITIONS FOR
NEW LEGISLATURE TO FILL,'
Columbia Oct. 31.?Numerous
state and governmental offices and
position^ are to be filled by the legislature
which convenes in January,!
and already there is a considerable '
amount of speculation indulged in
to the outcome of the several
races.
One of the most interesting offices
to be filled is that of speaker of the
house xrf representatives. The house
is to select a successor to Speaker J..
B. Atkinson, who did not offer for
re-election to the house from Spar-';
tanbure. The two names most prom-1
inently mentioned for this office are
those of Thomas S. iMcMillian, of
Barnwell. Both will likely be nominated,
and both, it is expected will
receive* strong votes.
Two circuit judges are to be elected
by the joint assembly, successors
to the late judge Edward Mclver of |1
Cheraw and the late Judge Ernest i'
Moore of Lancaster both of whom 1
have died this year.
A superintendent of the penitentiary
is to be elected the term of offi-l!
ce expiring with 1923. Col A. K. San i
ders the present superintendent, will 1
..... ... , i
be a candidate tor re-ejection, ana
his efficient administration will probably
result in his re-election, it is
stated. At the same time he has a- '
bout a half dozen opponents already '
announced.
SELECT SEED CORN IN FIELD ,
(
Qemstro College,?The 'yield' of j
corn can be increased very mater- ^
ially and very cheaply by the. use of (
better seed, and better seed may bo (
secured through tho selection in the (
^ield. Seed corn that will produce ^
the largest crop of good oom is near (
ly always the cheapest seed to use. ^
It is not only possible to increase
the yeild of corn but it is also po^|i- '
ble to very materially improve "the
quartity and uniformity of the seed
This latter^ point is of great value
in case we wish to sell any part of
the crop, as corn of good quality
and uniformity will bring much better
prices on the market than will
mixed and uneven lots of corn.
It is best to make our selection of
se?2d in the field where we can see
not only the size of ear but the stalk :
on which it grew and the number of
ears ner stalk, says Prof C. P. Black i
well. Agronomist, in making the fol- 1
lowing sugg 6tions.
Seed corn should be selected in
the field from stalks that grow un- <
der normal conditions that are free
from disease, preferably from stalk
having two good ears to the stalk.
If selection is made in the crib we
are likely-v to select ears that are;
grown under unusal conditions and]
probably with only one ear to the j
stalk. We should also select ears1
that are well protected from insccts I
by a long shuck which covers the |
Seed corn when gathered should i
be hung in a dry airy place It should
not be allowed to freeze until
thoroughly dry. After it is well
cured it should be stored in a dry
place where it will remain secure
from mice, rats, birds and insects.
Well-cured seed corn will produce
a much "better yield than corn not
properly cured.
In the spring of 1921 seven farmers
in a Georgia county were in-;
duced by the county extension agent
to make a trial cooperative ship-!
ment of 20 pounds of surplus cream.
In June 1922, fourteen months later,
according to a report made to
the United States Department of!
Agriculture, this new farm industry j
had grown to the extent of 10,000
pounds shipped from that country
during the month.
IN SOUTH CAROLINA
(By I). H. Magill, Richmond, Va.)
Congenial autumn days appear,
Beloved Sabbath of the year,
With blossoms strewn on summer's
bier,
As elligies of love.
The rose of love's resplendant bloom,
The Southern virgin of perfume,
Dispels sad thoughts of wartime
gloom?
In South Carolina.

Beneath the white magnolia grew,
For wartime love's Confederate rue
In South Carolina.
I love all Charleston's seaside braves
Who're resting in Confederate graves
With rainbow memory that waves
In South Carolina.
I love the snow white cotton fields,
The Southern farmer's loyal shield
That never will their safety yield?
In South Carolina.
I love Confederate womanhood,
Her voice for Southern valor's good,
Her valiance, her gentle blood,
In South Carolina.
Dear souls of our illustrious sires!
Bright were Confederate altar fires
For bravery that never tires?
In South Carolina.
KILLED IN AUTO CRASH
Spartanburg Man Victim of Wild
Driving.
Spartanburg, Oct. 28.?Rufus
Thompson, twenty-six years of age,
employe in Inman Mills and a resident
of that community, was instantly
killed early tonight on the
Appalachian Highway, two miles
west of Spartanburg, when he was
struck by a car in which J. 0. Odom
and J. V. Ashmore, of Campobello,
were riding. Both Odoms and Ashmore
are in the county, jail, charged
with manslaughter.
Thompson had gotten out of his
lar and was stooping behind it adjusting
the rear light when the other
:ar crashed into him. The car rebounded,
it is said, and its occupants
drove on, eyewitnesses stated,
without stopping to inquire as to the
damage done. They were arrested
here an hour later and the police say
they were under the influence of liquor.
Thompson, who was killed, is
survived by a widow and three children.
With him in the car when the
fatal accident occurred were several
:ompanions. His death will be investigated
by the coroner tomorrow.
rOUNG BOY RESCUED
NATURE HEALER
Nashville, Tenn, Oct. 21.?"I
ain't so hungry, but I ain't full yet"
said Owen vPardue 9 years old, when
h& had consumed a square meal late
yesterday for the first time in weeks
after having been fed on nuts, milk
and persimmons while penned up
stark naked on the farm of a "na
ture healer," of this city. '
Afflicted with boils and ulcers.
Owen was sent to the sanitarium"
of Merlin Valleau, an aged eccentric
who is convinced that clothes
and meat diet are the cause of most
ailments and illness.
Though nine years old, the boy is
undersized and undernourished.
Ha was rescued yesterday by
county health officers as he sat in
an improvised pen raade of tin and
gunny sacks. The sacks it was alleged,
were to keep the yellow jackets
from stinging him on his emaciated
body covered with running sores.
The boy's parents live at Ashland
City, Tenn.

FALL GARDEN NOTES.
(By Mrs. Alma C. Gibbons)
All gardeners should realize that
a top dressing of nitrate of soda applied
to cabbage, beets, carrots and
I turnips arising: from the August
planting will double the size of these
and hasten the time of maturity,
making them much more crisp and
better.
Cabbage, collards and other vegetables
attacked by cabbage worms
and chewing insects should be dust-j
led with Calcium Arsenate or dusted j
| with air slaked lime and arsenate of |
|lead 10 to 1. For the annihilation of
| the sucking insects and harlequin (
jbugs spray with lime-sulphur or kerjpsene
emulsion.
Transplant lettuce plants 8 inches
in the row, thin beets and turnips j
to 6 inches in the row, parsnip and
carrots to 3 inches in the drill.
Keep the fall Irish potato crop
| free from weeds and give them a
heavy earth mulch after each rain|
to insure a good crop.
Plant spinach at intervals of 4 j
weeks. When plants are 3 inches;
high, thin to 4 inches apart in drill,
j When beginning to use them take
out every other plant at first. Celery
I
may be set now where they are to
grow. Transplant them in rich land,
fertilize heavily and give frequent!
| cultivation.
j The sowing of turnips may still
I continue, the white globe, yellow!
'aberdeen, flat dutch, purple top and
[corn horn for winter use. Continue
,fo sow onion seed and plant sets unjtil
October 20th. The Spanish Brown
iand Australian Brown are the best
[keepers. Do not forget to plant
i sweet peas, pansies, and transplant
jyour bulbs now, for spring beauty.
jHave You Planted Green Feed For
Your Chickens?
Green feeds are a very necessary
.part of the hen's ration and should,'
be supplied to her when confined in1
small yards and during the winter
tfter the frost has killed the vegeta'tion.
Free range or large yards kept
jin grass, alfalfa or clover will fur,|5iish
ideal green feed. Where smaller
|;yards are used, they should be divided,
if possible, into two parts and
used alternately, planting the vacant
yard several times with a quick/jrowing
green crop, such as rape,
!j>ats, wheat, rye or barley. In this
jway, green feed is supplied and itj
I helps to keep the ground clean and!
j sweet. Other green feeds that can I
^e fed, especially in winter are|
, sprouted oats, alfalfa meal, chopped
alfalfa, clover hay, cabbage, and!
vnontyal >ioofQ f!nVkhno?A fan Via ffld hv I
jfcuspending them by means of a cord
jiiung up in the poultry house and the
birds receive some exercise while
eating. The beets are usuaily split
jand stuck on a nail on the side wall
I of the poultry house. When oats are
^sed for sprouting, they should be
of a good grade. Soak them over
| night in warm water and spread out
j one-half to 1 inch thick on trays
that have perforated bottoms. Water
.the oats thoroughly each day and|
I turn the trays around, so as . to bring
'each side to the light, in order to
encourage an even growth. Keep the
|tray in a temperately heated place,
and stir the oats each day until the
.sprouts begin to form. Sprouted oats
i are fed when the sprouts are from 2
to 4 inches high. The sod is removed,
! broken into chunks, and fed in
, troughs or on clean litter. From 1 to
2 square inches for each hen should
^be fed at noon.
I Why Green and Succulent Feeds
Are Necessary.
j 1. Fowls need succulence to keep
them in condition and to keep the
j digestive tracts in working order.
j 2. it acts as a tonic ana stimulates
the appetite.
3. It furnishes a large amount of |
.water and thus adds bulk to the ra,tion.
:
j 4. It is undoubtedly one of the
(factors causing egg production,
j 5. It improves the fertility and
hatching quality of the egg, and the
vitality of the chick.
