Preceding: articles described the dis ease, sanitary measures for its control, etc. Anti-Hog Cholera Sernm. It has been known for many years that the few hogs which recover from cholera are henceforth projected from fc the disease. In ot!Ler words they are immune. This is due to the fact that these hogs, during their sickness, manufacture in their bodies certain substances (anti bodies or anti-toxines) which protect them against further attacks of cholera. Investigators in the U. S. Department of agriculture discovered that if a large quantity of blood from hogs affected witih cholera is infected into an immune hog this hog will produce > additional anti-toxins or anti bodies. In fact these substances are produced to such an extent that blood drawn HHnBiBBHMBnnaMHaaaMg TYPICAL COUNTIES ABE BEI>G STUDIED Newberry aud Florence Chosen as ] Illnstrations of Farm Demon- j stration Work. j I ) ' The Stale. j | Casting about for typical farm dem- j L onstration counties, in order that, through analysis of changes for the better wrought therein, the efficiency j of tlte demongiration work might be | graphically presented, the-federal de-j parimen: of agriculture ias asKea \v.j BL W.

Would (his administration of that office be creditable and subserve the best interest of the country? We need not express our personal opinion; his long record as sheriff of Newberry ' * county is a sufficient answer. We have heard men endorsed for office, we have read some of those endorsements but candor compels us to say that we have never known a man to offer higher evidence of his qualifications and fitness for an of -? fice of similar character than that given >Mr. Buford by leading men in the State?men of character and influence, men who know the needs of uhe office and the fitness of the man.

This blood, or ':he fluid portion of it, is called anti-hog cholera serum. Some ask why this serum does not cause cholera. It is so highly charged that it can contain non-e of the virus which causes the disease and will therefore never cause cholera. The method of serum manufacture is interesting (also expensive), but too compljex to be described in this article. Since 1911 the veterinary division of Clemson college has been preparing this serum and distributing it to the farmers of the State at cosf Results obtained have been uniformly satisfactory and hog owners are now relying upon this method of treatmen': for the protection of their herds.

GIYFS PRESIDENT - | PLENARY POWERS i >Tew Amendment Added to Tariff Bill. ?To Prevent Prejudice. j : " i i ! Washington, June 19.?-An amendment to the Underwood tariff bill, adopred today by the majority members of the senate finance committee, would, give the president of the. United States authority .to suspend certain rates in the proposed law and to prorates atrainsif nations l_. iCHiii. 1Uvvu ? - . . _-7_ whidh discriminate, against products of the .United States. <,;;v The amendment is appended to the clause, giving: the. president authority to negotiate reciprocity agreements with other nations,, and, in some, respects resembles the maximum and minimum clause of the Payne-Aldrich tariff law eliminate^.in- the house bill. In . substance the,, amendment. would provide tihat when any nation: discriminates against the t products of, t;he United States or imposes restrictions upon United States exports, or- does not,, in the opinion of the president! reciprocate in trade, relations,, the! V I president may,, by proclamation, sus- i pend certain rates and put in effect other rates. .... Power Restricted. Only specified articles, it is understood, are to be included under the terms of this amendment and the re- j ffaliatory rates are specified also. Among the articles included in the list upon which the president might j ti -ficVi tttViout Tx,-hon t SUSptJllU ICILTTS aic UOII, nnvui., flour, coffee, tea, earthenware, wines and malt liquors, silk dress goods,, leather gloves, jewelry, sugars and molasses. The duties prescribed vary as to the different articles. Fish, it is reported, would be dutiable at 1 j cent a pound, wheat at 10 cents a j bushel, flour at 45 cents a barrel, a j I few cents per pound on coffee and, tea. On other items tihe penary j would be doubled rate, while on sug- J ars, which probably never would be j affected, the rate would be only a fraction of 1 cent per pound. The amendment, of course, is subject to ratification of the democratic sensatorial caucus, which will begin work i on ~he bill tomorrow. Cat Out >ew Clause. Besides adding this amendment the majority members stripped the administrative provisions of the Underwood bill of many of its new features, including the inquisitorial clause, which gave American agents the right to examine' foreigners' dooks m cases of disputed import valuations. They I also struck out the provision requiring registration bureaus for commisjsioners and agents in American consulates, the provision to give the secretary of the treasury the right to 'determine the existence or non-existence of a foreign mr.rket; the antidumping clause whicfa provided excess i duties on Imports underso1^ in this country and the 5 per ->ent tariff diss I count on imptfrfs m American vessels. i Tho however, inserted an amendment providing for the appointment of a commission to be composed of members of the senate finance and the house ways and means ! committees :o make a thorough study of the whole tariff / administration ' question and report recommendation , for its readjustments. The action of i+i'io onmmitfpp strikes from :he bill all the provisions which aroused protests I from foreign nations. Rejected Proposal.

This t'he committee thought' not practical. It adopted, however, a suggestion from the same source, making it unlawful to take up cases in :he customs court on a contingent fee hasis. I After reopening consideration of : the print paper schedule today, the committee renewed its former action and struck out its amendmsnt, adding the countervailing provisions of I the Canadian reciprocity laws. As the bill goes to the caucus the Underwood provision remains undisturbed, print paper valued at not more than two and- a half cents a pound,' going on the unrestricted free list-' i j The committee nowftas disposed Of all the schedules and administrative 'features of the bill and tomorrow will turn them over ta tne caucus.

President Taft vetoed the bill on the ground that it violated the interstate commerce clause of the constitution by delegating the regulation of interstate commerce to the States. rPhe bill was passed over his veto. Attorney General McR-eynold's interpretation is said to mean that the federal government is no't called upon to enfoorce a law ior ine viuiaauu ui which no penalty is imposed and that the interstate commerce forbidden by the law is "outlaw" commerce in regard to which the States are free to apply their statutes. The attorney general did not attempt to pass upon the constitutionality of tihe act and it is believed that this question ultimately may reach the United States su- : preme court. ^Ss/ A It tells you h phone line w same high-cla: now enjoyed If you ha tell you how You do not o (Address n< SOUTHERN AND TELE 163]So w ? - '. -:f W-V^ijSg '1 r ^^QmH |H <?? jfjfe*1 (kJfl Splendid, enduring, beauty, deeply cut inscriptions, granite or marble of the finest kind?these a^e the reasons why the monument is bast bought of us.
