Hie said the farmer would put up his cotton in marketable shape, ready for transportation and think nothing of it, but that If he brought a load of produce, even corn to town he was hardly willing to sack it, and if it were sacked, he invariably wvanted the sacks back, which necessi tated an extra expense to the mer chant. The merchane in question said he would prefer handling home grown produce if same could be brought in a marketable shape, but that to buy prodluce and then make it marketable hep was forced to incur an extra ex pense. over and above that shipped In from the outside market, therefore the shipped stuff' as easier handled and a saving as made in this partic ular item..-~The Cooperator. -0 U~hv That Doet.Not Affset The Heud TIVS$ f toO n N tltrthanordlnsry ~Q~~ ad doo not cause amrousneue nor e b. gitg saead GER~iON' ): Y0ELI Vt TAB, Lsi LABORATORY TO ;E VISE I ANA AGAINST p0OL4 WEFi h.% ' confect will Begin at Once e1 porder Counties--High Cost of LivingE alt -Institution to Make ApaliUtion foi* Admission into Reserve Officers' Traijing Corps--Free Tuition De nied 156 Out of 874 .Making Appli cation-To Eradicate Haipg. Columbia, Dec. 20.-The regular annuanm,etingfof thq% ae f trus tees of Clemson college" Wah held in Columbia yesterday. This meeting was scheduled for lastmonth, but was delayed that more accurate and com ilete reports relating to the work of the instit'ution might be prepared. Chief among the matters which occu pied the attention of the board'yester day were: Adoption of recommendations by the board of charities and corrections, whereby free tuition was denied 156 of the 374 making application for State aid. Authorization of President W. M. Riggs to make application for Clem son's admission into the reserve of ficers' training corps. Establishment of a boll weevil lab oratory in the border counties of the State in which the next cotton crop is likely to become infested and the engagement of two entomologists for this fiele duty. 'Ph ward also took decisive action in extending its plans to eradicate hazing at the institution, by adopting resolutiops, requiring a signed state ment by applicant and parent or guardian, that the studept will ab stain from participation" in all forms of hazing. The student also agrees to withdraw voluntarily from the in stitution, should the temptation to discipline underclassmen prove too tempting. The statements are filed before the students will be admitted. Services for an additional assistant in the fertilizer analysis department has been found necessary and the board yesterday creater this chair. C. F. Sheffield of Mississippi was se lected for this place. A bequest of $1,000 was accepted from ,Mrs. Mary Cherry Doyle of Seneca. This amount is to create the George Cherry foundation, and will be a permanent loan fund to students from the Pendleton district, embracing Oconee county and a por tion of Anderson county. During the meeting, T. S. Evans appared representing the Seaboard Air Line railway, offering a site near McBee for the establishment of the sand hill experiment station and in viting the board to utilize a special train over the road to inspect the property. The proffer was declined, as the institution has not available resources sufficient to develop such a venture within the immediate fu ture, and also because the board is NOl Owinq tQ there b4 aged wheat that will ni for exchange, THE FLOUR MIL LS will gri the bajance of the se toll or its equivelent ii CLAENDON ROL OLD SAW "Of all the Saws you evI Saw saw like our Saws saw. rapidly.

Presi dent Riggs emphasized yesterday that the reference of thisl question to the corrections board has a decidedly wholesome influence, in' that the num ber of students paying tuition, with out application for State aid, was practically doubled last fall. Should Clemson be admitted to the reserve officers' training corps, no additional military duty will be im posed upon the students except in the junior ani senior years, and then these duties would be wholly elective. To those electing the special officer training, a subsistence fee of $9 a month will be allowed and one com plete uniform outfit, which; approx imates scholarship values. The institution is having an exceed ing good year, President Riggs said yesterday. The total enrollment is 843, and the number of failures and withdrawals is far below the average. Another pleasing feature to the ad ministration is the increased suport which is coming in from the fertili zer tax. The returns for the first six months of hte present fiscal year to tal the amount of $29,638.95 against $18,906.90 for the cor ponding period one year ago. , The first year of the war fertilizer tax returns were reduced $121,000, with the falling off last year amounting to $105,000. The high cost of living is also mak ing itself felt at the college. With the third quarter beginning February 3, studerats will pay $9 a month board against $8 previously.

TO GET BUSY AFTER XMAS Even the Most Ardent Advocates of, Amendment Do Note -nticipate Victory. Washington, Dec. 2.--mmeaiatey after the holidays advocates of pro hibition in Congress plan to carry on a vigorous campaign for the proposed federal constitutional amendment and to exert every possible effort to get a vote on it as this session in spite of the general belief that it will be beaten. The senate judiciary committee's action today in voting to report the amendment with a recommendation for its passage opened the way for -the resolution in both houses, the House judiciary committee having taken similar action two weeks ago. In the House it is proposed to appeal soon after the Christmas recess to the rules committee for a special rule to bring the resolution before the House for a vote within a prescribed time. Champions of the resolution in the Senate can resort to no such par liamentary expedients and must take their chance of getting the amend ment ahead of other legislation. Sen ator Sheppard, will urge its conside ration at every opportunity. The Senate committee amended the wording of the resolution, but its ef fect is unchanged and would prohibit the manufacture, importation and sale of liquor for beverage purposes in the United States. Even the most ardent advocates of the amendment do not anticipate vic tory at this session, as a two-thirds majority of both houses is required. But they do expect an increased ma jority for the amendment in both houses, and ultimate victory in the Sixty-fifth Congress is their hope. The District of Columbia prohibi tion bill will be voted on In the Senate January 9. Another measure to bar liquor advertising from the mails in prohibition States was favorably re ported today from the Senate postof fice committee. "I expect the District prohibition bill to pass the House," Democratic Leader Kitchin said tonight, "but I do not think any national prohibition measure can obtain the necessary two-thirds vote in the House at this time."
