AFOUL OF QUARANTINE LAV/8. Shipment of Cattle was Held up by the State Officials. Clemson College, Oct .15.-Spe cial: The r?gulations governing the transportation or cattle within this State have been forcibly brought to the attention of a certain citizen In Oconee county during the past few days. This man, who deals In cattle and should, therefore, be acquainted with the state regulations, attempted to ship a car load of cattle from Charleson to Walhalla. This was In direct violation of State regulation adopted for preventing the spread of fever ticks, and as a result these cat tle were stopped by the State In spector just as they wer? on the point of entering Anderson county. These cattle will have to return to counties below the State quarantine line, and will probably be disposed of at considerable loss to the owner. This ls only one example of the Indifference and carelessness shown hy many prominent citizens of Oco nee county. More Indifference and lack of Interest In the extension of this work has been shown hy citi zens of Oconee county than in nny of the other twelve counties In which we are now working. Many of these people look upon the work as a po litical graft of some kind, while oth ers think lt utter foolishness. The fact remains, however, that unless the cattle ticks are eradicated from South Carolina, we must continue to suffer an annual loss of many thou sands of dollars, which can he easily prevented. Other States have been at this work for several years, and tho neighboring State of North Carolina has already eradicated the fever tick from over one-half of the coun ties of the State, and now enjoys an unrestricted cattle traffic as well as complete freedom from Texas fever in these counties. In this State citizens of Anderson county have given the work strong support, and this county will, there fore, soon he free. Oconee county. While it ls less Infested than almost any of the other counties, will be one of the last to free Its Infested premi ses unless tho citizens give us their support. The actual work of freeing the promises is very small, and If cat tle owners will follow Instructions given hy this office and by the In spectors now lu the field, they will have no trouble lu freeing their premises. For the benefit of persons desiring to move cattle Into Oconeo county, the following Instructions are given: Cattle can enter Oconee county from any county of North Carolina north of Oconee, and from Kuluin. Union and Townes countlts, of Georgia, without restrictions. Cattle from Kunnin, Murray, Gil more, White, Ifaborsham, Stevens and Hall counties can enter Oconeo county after permission has boen re ceived from this office, and the cattle have boen Inspected by a Federal In spector. The only counties in South Caro lina from which cattle can be moved into Oconee county aro Anderson, PIckens and Greenville. if cattle are moved In violation of these regulations, this will be di rect violation of Federal as well as State regulations, and will bo promptly prosecuted by Federal and State authorities. Shipments of cattle have been stopped at Tooooa. Qa., by Federal inspectors and the railroad agents and owners of ferries should pay spo Clal attention to these regulations, as they are liable for all cattle which they accept in violation of these reg ulations.

At the afternoon session of the peace conference Dr. George T. Win ston. Dr. John F. Crowell, Governor Nf, F. Ansel and Dr. W. L. Poteat delivered addresses. In speaking of good roads, Mr. Richards said that if thc 580 coun ties south of the Potomac and east of the Mississippi would each spend $500,000 in road improvement the value of land in those counties would thereby be increased 100 per cent. The peace congress will adjourn to-morrow. At the afternoon session of the peace congress a motion to apply for membership for the North Carolina Peace Society in the National Practi cal League caused Richmond Pear son Hobson to remark that several States in the West where he had re cently been are awaiting the action of the North Carolina Society before Joining the league. He stated fur ther that the Practical League was organized to carry into a national or ganization the idea of the North Ca rolina Society.

The Whole Story. (Sumter Herald.) If you have two dollars and you need a dollar's worth of food and a dollar's worth of cloth, you will buy both the food and the cloth, but If you need a dollar's worth of food and a dollar's worth of cloth and have but one dollar you will buy the food, and let the cloth go over till another time. The whole world ls economizing, and is buying the food, hut is cutting down on the cloth. Therefore, food products, which wo of the South do not raise, but buy, are advancing in price. If we made less of the cotton and more of the food, we would be that much better off. A pain prescription Is printed upon each 2">c. box of Dr. Shoop's Pink Pain Tablets.

Cotton would have to be worth about 15 cents to ?equal dollar corn. Then corn has another tremendous advantage.
