Clemson Colege, Sept. 28 There is considerable speculation as to the advance of the boll weevil toward South Carolina. Prof. A. F. Conradi a id today that the State crop pest commission has kept in close touch with the boll weevil situation and that during the past two seasons the pest had moved eastward at an unusual rate. There has been a continual eastward spread this season and according to the latest report of the State entomologist of Georgia, which has just betn received, the weevil has betn found 45 miles west of the South Carolina border. He thinks that in all probability the pest will reach this State by the end of this season. Prof. Conradi says that the fail cooenn ic annrochine:. The u lopucai ?rx w. weevils scatter just before going into winter quarters. President Riggs, Gov. Manning, Prof. W. W. Long, Prof. Conradi and oMiers will go soon to the South ""vest to study the situation.

Germany will persevere until victory is here, the Reichstag was told yes terdav by Chancellor Von BethmannHollweg, according to the full text of his speech which was published here today. The chancellor declared that this year's harvest had made Germany's position much more secure: than wus the case last year. In his attack upon Great Britain hej declared that the country was 'break-j inc nrip intprnntifYnal latu aff-pt* annth- ! er and was above all Germsany's: "most egotistical, fiercest and most j obstinate enemy." "A German statesman," he said," who would hesitate to use against this enemy every available instrument of battle that would really shorten this war?such a statesman should be hanged." The chancellor protested against re- j nnrtc that fnr anv reason whatever: 1? ? ?^ all means of warfare were not bein^ : used as fully as possible. He declined , to enter into public discussion which ! recently had arisen on this subject, | savin<g the times were too grave. The chancellor said that the English starvation blockade had -failed and that the provisionment of the German nution had been improved by the recent harvest. Dr. Von Bethmann-JEIollweg ac-; * 1 ^ ? - - - - ? knowie;ge<i tne neroisiu witu wmui the German nation bears its burdens. of war and especially the heroism with which our sons and brothers on , the front withstand the furious at-j tacks of an enemy far superior in; number and projectiles. I?very in the: world history has man seen anything; like this." Continuing the chancellor said: "Great tasks which await us (after the war) in all domfains of the State and of social, economic and political life need all the vital solid forces of our nation.'' After the chancellor had concluded there was long and generous applause. \fter a short discussion the Reichstag rdjourned. COUSIN BILL WRITES 1NTEKSTIXG LETTER TO SAM3TY Tells Him All About the Many Sights To be iSeen at State Fair and Harvest Jubilee. * Columbia, iS. C. Sept. 28, 1916. Dear Sammy: As you hiave not heard from me in quite a while I thought I would drop you a line or two and let you know how I am getting along. I landed in Columbia a few days ago and I tliink I will stay rnere. II like this place pretty well. They are going to have a Jubilee in October and oiJl you hear is Jubilee and State fair. Last year they told me there were about 130,000 visitors heie and it was the biggest frolic they have ever had, that is why tverybody is using the slogan, "Frolic Time in Caiolina." They are going to have >.% queen and all that sort of stuff, big street bails, and wihen it comes to the shows on the streets they tell me that they are pippins. It went co3t a cent. All you have to do is stand up and gaze. g J x A. i - une ieuow imu me txx<ii tue yaraut: lust year was over a mile long and he said that it would be twice that long this year. Tbey are looking for 200,000 visitors this year and I certainly am going to be here for the frolic. Be sure and write me at once if you are coming so that I can <get a plc.ce for pou to leave your grip. You wont n a+A o nlo/ia tn o 1 rs "V>m TL'ri 11 Vi/-v a piUVU IV 1VU uiil u\s wu >usy frolicing. I have been invited to the queen's Dall and I sure am going. They tell ne that it is going to be the finest ball ?ver held in the State. I saw tfne photographs c-f some of the loats that were in the parr.de hist 'erx and they certainly were swell ooking ones and this year they will )e better. In a lot of the store winlows they are commencing to put in harvest Jubilee colors. I really beieve this burg has waked up for they Lre -certainly working hnrd to zet in ill the fun tliey can for one week. I don't see how I am going to see til the shows at once, because they are i block apart, but they will be running ill the time and I will hang around >ach one of them to see wh?at is gong to happen. I like to look at parades and they :ell me thr^t they are going to have REDUCE] To South Second Har and Forty-eig COLL October 23rd (Up ' 5 Spectacu 8 Free / OFFICIAL OPE1 i Queen's Coronation n : 1 v-ai 111 v?u Band ( Fair C $17,000.00 Unusual Exhibits Free Acts M You are Smith farnlin bilee and five during the week.

The whole afTriculturui departmeb^ ' Clemson College, floats from a couph of packing bouses, creameries, alKjJ tha fine live stock .Die clubs, etc.. will ^ be in the parade, besides that there are a wliole lot of farmers who are going I to be in the parade with floats, sfnowI ing what they have raised on their |:j farms. These fellows are competing for prizes. Another thing I have heard a lot M about that 1 want to see is the open air dancine. Tt must bp fine just to get out in the .street and toe able to ? dance a whole block. I know you can V count on me 'being in it. I guess it .n means a fine sight to see a whole street ^ all lighted up end decorated and the street smooth and nice, with a couple of brass bands ploying?why a crippled man couldn't keep from dancing, JM much less me. But there will be nothing doing when it comes to skating, although I expect to be on hand to * see a lot of fellows hit the lasphalt in the crowd. I have pictures of the candidate for Queen. Gee, I didn't know there were so many pretty girls in South Carolina. It will be hard to pick the winner. I am glad I got an invitation to the Queen's ball because they are making big preparations for the entertainment. Give my best regrar&s to Jim and Aunt Lou. I hope both of them will be able to be here for the fair. I know y ; the dancing would do Jim's rheumatism a world of good. Your Cousin, Bill. Braided Rivers. A. river not confined to a single channel, but broken up into a number of channels, which in turn branch and unite in a complex and confusing manner, is called a braided stream. It is caused by the slight fall of the stream, which prevents it from carrying away all the sediment swept into it by its numerous tributaries. This material chokes the stream and, forces it to spread into many shallow and shifting channels, resembling th< strands of a braid. A good example o{ this is Jefferson river, in Montana.New York Mail.
