FIGHT SAN JOSE SCALE CLEMSON EXPERT SENDS OUT INFORMATION. Vse of Wibater Sprays the Only Means hy Which the Fruit Tree Pesc Can j be JBrooght Under Control. ' Mr. A- F. Conrad], entomologist of. the South Carolina Experiment Station, has given the following in formation and dirfcclons for far mers concerning the Jose scale? ?hick is so injurious to fruit trees in cotton -sections: The season is rapidly af-proacching when we. must be seriously con sidering the question of San Jose scale control. It is with winter sprays only that this pest can be brought under subjection, aud these ' must be applied when the trees are dormant and leafless. 91though the insect Is very resistant and any spray sufficiently penetrating to kill the in sect under the scale; if applied in summer it would kill the tree. In this article We consider th-i essen tials of a good spray pump and the grades or ingredients. Blundering when purchasing the equipment and material may make spraying expen sive and unprofitable. "In selecting a spray pump the orchardist must be governed by the circumstances. Cheap tin or copper pumps cannot be used for this spray nor do we recommend knapsack pumps for this puropse. A substi tute pump with brass working parts should be secured. It should be fitted with 25 feet of hose, and in case of large trees an extension rod should be used so that all parts of the tree can be reached.. Light extension rods can be purchased from any dealer in spraying appa ratus or a serviceable one can be made of gas pipe with threads cut at each end to fit hose and nozzle. Where only a few trees are to be sprayed the end of the hose contain ing the nozzle may be fastened to a pole, and In this manner the tops of trees can be reached. In all spray ing operations with lime-sulphur wash a Vermorel or misty nozzle should be used. These nozzles throw cone-shaped, misty spray and do not become leaky. A Bordeaux nozzle is unsatisfactory, as it soon becomes leaky. When buying Vermorel nozzois, they are generally supplied with several caps having holes of different sizes. The. medium-size hose, which is about Inch in diameter, is nest adapted for spraying this wash. Where only a few trees are to be sprayed, a bucket-pump, costing abo-'t $8, will answer tbs puropse. In >rchards of one hundred or more trees, a barrel-pump, costing from '$16 to $20, is recommended. It may-be fitted with two leads of hose, the barrel having a capacity of fifty gallons, thus economizing time and labor. The 1-8-inch four-ply hose is gen erally used. It costs about 10 to 12 cents a foot The best quality hose costs about 16 cents, and Is the cheap est itt tho end. A wire-wound hose, although heavier, will stand more abuse, as well as a much higher pressure. Every barrel pump should be provided with a good agitator as well as an air chamber sufficiently large to Insure steady pressure. When the working parts of the pump are above the barrel or tank It pre vents tho parts from becoming rusty and corroded. On the other hand, it is often desirable to have the work ing parfc? in the barrel to facilitate getting around trees with low, spread ing branches. For large orchards of several thousand trees, the pump is mounted on a wagon tank or three hundred gallons capacity. Such "a tank costs about $15. A double action pump is recommended for this equipment in all cases. "It is recommended that calcium lime be used in all cases as magne sium lime does not unite so woll with | the sulphpr and furthermore it often contain lumps that will not slake. Such lumps are a nuisance when preparing the wash. Any grade of lime that does not lake completely is undesirable. Great care should be taken to avoid the lime becoming air slake. Where It must be kept on hand for some time It Is well to sake It and keep it covered with water In a pit. "The two grades of sulphur used ,in making this wash are 'flour* and 'flowers.' Both grades are satisfac tory, but as 'flour' is about 5? per cent ? cheaper It is recommended. There are other brands of sulphur in the market, but ftequently are lumpy and undesirable unless ground before using. The price In small quantities should not exceed 5 cents per pound, while ground, or flour of Bulp&nr bought in 100-pound lots should not exceed 3 to 3 1-2 cents per pound, f. a. b. original shipping point." * As Should Be. At a recent meeting of the City Council, tho following officers were elected to serve tho city for one year: A. C. Dibble, assistant to the city clerk and treasurer: A. Fisher, chief of police; F. A. Schiffiey, health officer; J. B. Ethride, street over seeror; Lewis Avinger, assistant to overseer; Jennings. Fairey. Edwins, Fick.ling, Williamson, Segrest, police men. These are all good officials and the City Council paid them a deserv ed compliment by re-eletting them. Had Serious Fall. Mr. John Vaughn while exereisln~ on a trapeze bar accidentally fell and was knocked unconscious for about thirty minutes. A physician was called who food restored the young man to consciousness again. We hope he will experience no bad ef fects from the accident. PAYMENT OP SALARIES. Important Ruling in Reference to Caihoun County Officials. Comptroller General Jones now [has before bim an interesting ques ion as to the payment of salaries I of the auditor and treasurer of Cal |boun county for 1908. The general [assembly, after fixing the salaries. 3f these officials at $1,080 per yeai leach, appropriated $900 each for tht [present year, $600 to the paid b> [the State and $300 to be paid by the county. The comptroller general holds, [that although this is the appropria [ tlon, the legislative act provides thai [salaries be paid monthly and as the officers referred to did not go in unti. [ ue latter part of May they are only entitled to pay from that date and 'not for previous moths. As $900 I year would amount to $75 per month :his would menu about .$450 reduc tion should his point br. sustained. Mr. Jones says that otherwise pres snt officers could go in December and draw the full $900 for one month. The case will be brought into th?: court, which we believe will sustain he ruling of Mr. Jones. We can'i I see on what grounds officials claim pay for work they never performed, I which seems to be the case with thesf officials. The mere fact that the legislature has appropriated the mon ey . is no reason why it should be paid out except for value received in return. WILL SOON BEGIN WORK Paving a Part of Russell Street With \ Vitrified Rrlck. Within a few days plans and speci fications will be ready for contractors to make bids for paving a part of Russell street. As soon as they are completed bids will be called for! and the work will then be commenc ed in a short time. The City Council after discussing the relative cost of putting down the brick on a sand cushion or concrete base, requested City Engineer Hawes to get up speci fications for the work, using a san 1 Cushion in the m?i? part of the work and a concrete base at the in tersection of the streets and on the public squares. There being just about sufficient money on hand to put down the brick paving on the sand cushion and concrete base at street Intersections from corner of Broughton and Russell streets up Russell street to the corner of Dojde and Russell streets, the Ctty Council < has resolved to do that part of the work at once. It has been decided not to put the pavement down over the entire Pnltic square at present, but that the .width of the street will be paved through the square. We are sorry that the money is lacking 'to pave the entire square. It is needed and we hope the whole square will be paved as soon as the funds are available for the purops?.. Let us have a complete job. Resisted an Officer. Arthur Nance, a negro, was lodged in jail Tuesday, charged with resist ing an officer, who endeavored to take him from an Atlantic Coast Lint train Saturday afternoon. The ne-; gro. while under the influence of whiskey, acted in a. very disorderly manner and fired a pistol among the other passengers. When this point was reached the conductor called on a policeman to take charge of Nance, who fought stubbornly for a while before being finally overcome. There is also a charge of housebreaking and larceny against Nance and bail was fixed at $200 in each case. Election at Cameron.

The Johnson News-Monitor offers this good advice: "Either run a town with vim, or just sell out and loaf. One thing must be done run the town for all that it is worth, get up steam and keep it up. Do you want trade. Bid for it. Do you want business to come to your town? Advertise. Do you want a prosper ous town? Then do not let petty jealousies rule your uction, but all work together for common prosperity and mutual benefit." Attention, Confederate Veterans. In consequence fof the death of Comrade Thomas C.

The limb was promptly set and it is expected that the little one will soon be all right. PUTTING IN THE SE iVERAGE. Those Who Do Work Will Not Get jRich. We have heard a great deal of complaint from time to time as to the cost of putting in sewerage in the homes. Some people seem to he under the impression that the cost of the material and labor amount to very little, and that very nearly the whole amount paid to the conr tractor is a clear pick up on their part. This is a mistake. After pay ing for the material and labor on a job the contractor has not a great deal left, as a little figuring will prove to any one. It takes a quan tity of material and the labor em plbyed is of the most expert kind. You don't need any other kind to put In your sewerage. Recently we contracted with Mr. J. W. Smoak to put In a sewerage system in our home. While the work was being done we noticed Irdcsely the amount and kind of ma I terial used In the work. We also observed the manner in which the work was done and the time It took an expert plumber to do it. When we considered the cost of all these things we became thoroughly con vinced that no contracting plumber would get rich on the work ho would do in Orangeburg. While the job cost a great deal, we are sure that the charges were* reasonable, and that the same work could not be done for less in the manner in which it was done when the quantity of material used and the class of labor employed is considered. The work was done by Mr. Chas. W. Spangler under the supervision of Mr. J. W. Mason, who is the ef ficient manager of Mr. Smoak's plumbing denartment. Mr. SpaNje'. gave us a nice job, the work being thoroughly and neatly done. He understands his business, and when he does a piece of work it is done right. Mr. Mason himself is an expert in the plumbing line, and Is a most courteous and pleasant gentle man to deal with. All you have to do is to tell him what you want and he will map it out better for you than vou can for yourself. We commend Mr. Smoak to all who need any plumbing done. He nses nothing but first-class material and workmen, and can give you the best kind of a job at as reasonable a price as such work can be done. Death of Mrs. Gnyot. . Mrs. Florence Theresa Guyot, be loved wife of Mr. P. E. Guyot, and daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Davis, of Orangeburg county, was born January 2, 1S62, and died October 9, 1908, after a very short illness. of one day and night, al though she had been a sufferer for several years, was thought to be Improving for several weeks, and was on a visit in Orangeburg when she died. For many years she was a consistent member, of Hebron Meth odist church, near Livingston, S. C., where she lived up to three years ago, since then had been a resident of Columbia, S. C.

"The up-state estimates sent in by the World correspondents are those of the leaders of the two par ties and not of the World. They reflect the conditions as viewed by those leaders three weeks before election, presenting the P.rst outline of the work of forming the lines of battle. The condition that exist j today may be materially changed during the three weeks remaining of the campaign, and the figures may be revised in many instances that cannot now be anticipated.. The registration of voters has just begu i in up-state counties. "The totals of the majorities in tbe fifty-seven counties above the Bronx show estimated majorities in 52 of them for *.ughes aggregating 113.050 and majorities in the other three for Chanler aggregating 2,900. In the same counties two years ago Governor Hughes received majorities aggregating 135.342 and Mr. Hearst 377. According to the stimates presented by the World today Gov ernor Hughes will lose above the Bronx 22,292 votes and Mr. Chanler will gain over Hearst 2,528. "The estimates show even more marked changes in the presidential situation. Four years ago 55 of the same 57 counties gave Mr. Roose velt majorities aggregating 212, 495. and Parker of 338. The coun ties covered in the table printed show majorities for Taft aggregating 1 48,500. and for Mr. Bryan of 2, 900. So that according to the es timates, Mr. Taft will lose, if pres ent conditions continue. 64,995 and Mr. Bryan will gain 1,062. The es timates show that while Mr. Taft will not hold all of the Roosevelt vote of four years ago, he will com mand at least 65 per cent of it. "The reductions noted in the es timates are mainly in the factory centres and are due to these causes. ??1. Industrial conditions affect ing many thousands of employes. The dissatisfaction of voters with the old parties. "3. Opposition to Governor Hughes because of his reform." The World also publishes state ments from the leaders of the re spective parties, and it is evident that the Democrats are more sail guine of success than are the Re publicans. .

"In performing the solemn duty at this time in the rupport of a po litical party, labor does not become partisan to the political party, but partisan to . principle." declared President Gompers of the American Federation of Labor, in a circular issued . regarding labor's attitude in the campaign. He charged that the Republican party and the candldats stand for further extending Into the country the despotic government vested In the judiciary and the Dem ocratic party and its candidates stand for government by law vested in the people. The circular is addressed to "Men of Labor, Lovers of Human Liberty,' and says in part: "The judiciary, Induced by corporations and trusts, and protected by the Republican pa/'.y, is step by step destroying governmest by law and substituting therefor government by judges who determine what in their opinion .s wrong, what Is evidence, who is*guil t.v, an-i what the punishment shr.li be. This revolution is depriving workers of their rights as citizens, and will inevitably be made applic able to the business men later. "Virus in person has In several in stances entered upon the legislative field by making laws which may be enforced by the equity process. The despotic power under the ermine "s as dangerous as the despotic power under the crown." DISEASE KILLS INDIANS. Strange Plague Appears Among the Already Depicted Tribes. A deadly disease in some respects like the grip, but highly contageous and far more mortal than the grip in this climate, has attacked the al ready depleted tribes of the Crei in iians on the shores of James and Hudson bays, kil.llng men, women and children by scores. Alanson Skinner, of the depart ment of anthropology of the Ameri can Museum of Natural History, who recently returned from an exhaus tive study of the people of that country, brought the news of the plague to New York. The disease apparently came from nowhere,'* says Mr. Skinner. "The Indians had never heard of it be fore, and when men were stricken one day and died the next the rela tives and friends became panic strick en. "The Illness manifested itself Ui colds, followed by coughs, feyer and nausea, unless the sufferers were of very strong physique, they died quickly. In several tribes every aged man, delicate woman, and practically all the children were wiped out in a few days by the malady. Only the able bodied men resist i it, and a few of the stronger women."

Glau to BtT back SOUTH CAROLINA IS A SWEET PARODISE Compared- to Springfield, Illinois, Said on Old Colored Woman Who is Coming Back. At the union depot, Sunday af ternoon, waiting for a train to Augusta, was a negro woman who was on her way to some point la South Carolina, says the Macos, Ga.. Telegraph. While in the waiting room she fell to talking to some of the ne groes in the room with her, and from the conversation It was learne* that she was from Springfield, 111, and was returning to her old South Carolina home. She said that seven years ago her people went to Springfield, because they had been assured that the ne gro was more respectea in that sec tion of the country, and had even' right that white people had. The children went to the same school, they ate at the same r?3*.a?ir?at>, that there was no Jim Crow cars and that there was no distinction in anything on account of color. She said Chat to some cxtjnt they fou'iii this to be true, but there was do real mixing of the races otherwise, and they kept to themselves. They found that while it might be under stood that there was no distinction, and that the white women calle-J a negro woman Mrs. So-and-so. there was no such thing as calling socially, and but for the fact that they were there and could not get away they would have returned. In the recent trouble in Spring field the negroes were treated worse by the whites than they ever were in the South, and every negro who could sell out ar.d move was leaving. This woman was threatened with whipping and her own family were compelled to leave. She does not know where they went, because in the confusion there was no slop ping and hunting for kinfolks. She only knows tnat before the sepa ration they all wanted to go bac* to South Carolina, and she was go ing there, knowing that if alive they will sooner or later meet her there. She said that down South, in South Carolina, or elsewhere, the mob went af>cr the one negro. In Springfield they went after the whole bunch. In the South, she sold,' the negro had as good chance to live In safety and peace as anybody, so in sprlngfleld they were not only after the bad ones, but the good ones, too. No negro was safe, and she had noticed that this feeling against the negro was growing stronger every year. She predictes that in a few years there will be separate schoo'.s for whites and negroes ail over the West and North . .South Carolina was a paradise to the West for the nigro, she said, but the1 fool negro didn't know it until he spent all his money get'.'ug away, as he could not get bach. One old negro woman sitting in the waiting room, who has been listening to the talk in silence, threw up her hand and rolled her eyes up ward and exclaimed: "Ain't dat de trufe." , * MEN WANTED No Man Over 45 Years of Age Need Apply. There's the sign tht's getting to be a common thing to America. Corporations are retiring men at 50. They are not hiring anyone over 40. A baldheaded man often looks 10 years older than he is. A man with gray hair always does. It is important nowadays that a man look as young as he is; it is vastly Important that a man having a family depending upon him should take care of his hair.
