own and country life is beginning
to be appreciated again
after several dscades of disfavor
and neglect. The following
creed, which is being adopted
as the slogan of various boys'
and girls' clubs throughout the
rural sections of the United
States, shows that the thought
of the country is life being directed
into its natural channels:
"I believe that the country
which God made is more beautiful
than the city v, hich man
made; that life out of doors and
in touch with the earth is the
natural life of man. 1 believe
that work is wor! wherever I
find it, but that work with nature
is more inspiring than work
with the most intricate machinery.
1 believe that the

only upon what you do, but on
how you do it; that opportunity
comes to a boy on the farm as
often as to a boy in the city, and
that life is larger and freer and
happier on the farm than in the
town."
When your work comes hard,
when your nerves are a-quiver,
when you seem to be plodding
up and down in a treadmill?open

is a dose of fresh air tonic. You

you are gloomy and dispirited

wunu, uui iresn air will dnve
that silly notion out of your head. '
You think you are not appreciated.
that your best efforts all
end in failure, that life is a long
burden and not worth living.
Open your windows. You have
no time not to. You think the
fresh air will give you a cold.
It will not; it will give you a
warm. It will stir up all your
dormant energies, it will quicken
your blood, it will stimulate your
nervous system, it will invigorate
your mind, it will cheer yourj
soul. [
The modern method of solving
agricultural problems by investigating
them, not only in the
laboratory, but also on the farm j
in co-operation with the farmer,
has given such admirable results
that it is to be applied to
the anti-hog-cholera crusade.
Congress has appropriated a half
million dollars to carry on the
work and experiments will be
made in all parts of the United
States. The aim will be not
only to exterminate the disease
in the test sections, but also to
discover the most practical,
efficient and economical methods j
ior continuing me worK tnroughout
the country. This investigation
will fill a long-felt want
in South Carolina, as the hog
death rate in this State from
cholera is 65 per 1000 head, and
hog raisers are losing an average
of 51,000 hogs, valued at $464,000
from this disease annually.
Many persons have wondered
how the new whiskey law could
be enforced; how the records
could be kept and by whom so,
that the officers might know
whether or not any person or
persons are violating the law.
For their own information the
agents of the Southern Express
company are being required by
the company to place the consignees
or receivers of packages
of whiskey on their honor; the
company is requiring them to
sign a receipt for the shipment,
at the same time declaring that
they are living within the law.
The receipt goes to release the
company and at the same time
makes a complete record of the
shipments of liquor.
To avoid trouble, the public in
general should take cognizance
jf the new State law which prolibits
the purchase and discount
of trade checks for laborers'
wages. Violation of this act is
made a misdemeanor, punishaible
by a fine not exceeding $100,
or imprisonment not exceeding
.'10 days.

ture, was here the last week
and, with the assistance of Mr.
John J. Bailes. canvassed the
livestock raisers of the community
in an effort to induce
them to set aside certain of their
tiogs and cattle to be ted and
cared for under his direction
and later marketed on foot. The
proposition seemed so attractive
tiiat promises of about 50 hogs
were secured from about six
farmers and in all probability
the number will be increased
when the advantages are actually
demonstrated. At any rate the
movement is a stimulus to those
already engaged in raising hogs
for the market and will no doubt
encourage others to do likewise.
