peas, or velvet beans, but the Sudan
grass and Sorghum make fair hay.
Peas are very seance and are almost
out of the question for hay this year,
so the next logical thing you should
use is the soy beans. The best vari
ety of soy beans for hay is the Otoo

representatives convened for the first
legislative day_ of the week. The
Jennings measure, which would have
placed all county officers in the state
on a salary basis, doing away with
the fee system, njet its Waterloo when
the house by vote of 43 to 17 refused
to order the bill to third reading. The
parliamentary clincher was applied
subsequently. A bill was introduced
by Representative Rivers, of Charles
ton, to extend the open season on wild
turkeys and change the bag limit.
During the middle of the week it
became known that the farm bloc in
the house was drafting a bill to repeal
the present state commodity tax and
preparing a substitute bill that would
make the tax payable by wholesalers.
A bill to amend the “pay-as-you-
go” act so as to provide that coun
ties froming themselves into highway
districts may go ahead with construct
ion of cross-state roads with assur
ance of reimbursement f»om the state
highway department was introduced
in the senate Wednesday.
Both house and senate adjourned
Wednesday out of respect to Speaker
Edgar A. Brown, of Barnwell, whose
mother had died the previous night.
, "pjjg fi na nce committee bill pruvid-
ing for an increase in the expendi
ture for construction of the state of
fice building was revived and placed
on the calendar for further debate.
The measure had previously, been kill
ed by the senate.
Communication Received
A communication was received from
the sinking fund commission, stating
that the $500,000 limitation made con
struction of a building adequate to
the needs of the state a physical im
possibility. The commission asked
appointment of a joint commission
from the legislature to go into the
matter with them.
By a vote of 31 to 13 the senate
killed the Moore-Hamilton railroad
crossing bill to require motorists to
stop before crossing railroads. The
motion adopted, to continue the bill
indefinitely, wjjs made after an
amendment of Senator Williams, of
Aiken, to require railroads to erect
electric gong signals at crossings was
killed.
Through adoption of an amendment
to the Jeffords-Spruill highway bill,
the senate Thursday provided for ap
proximately 25 per cent reduction in
the automobile license fees. The bill,
however, was not acted upon.
First rumors of the drafting of a
bill providing for intermediate senten
ces began to be current about that
time, when it became known that the
judiciary committees of both houses
were preparing such a measure for
introduction.
The house killed the Humphrey’s
bill Thursday, thereby doing away
with efforts to secure a law to com
pel tobacco warehouses to open simul
taneously upon a day specified in the
statute.
A bill was introduced in the house
to exempt tornado sufferers of last
year from payment of state and coun
ty taxes for 1924. Instruction in nat
ural history was provided for in the
Peeples house bill, which Representa
tive Peeples of Richland, the author,
explained, was introduced upon re
quest.
Notable Skirmish
One of the notable skirmishes in the
house for the week was that which
resulted in victory for supporters of
the joint resolution providing for the
calling of a constitutional convention.
On motion of Representative Smith,
Kershaw, the house, over opposition
of the farm group, recommitted the
measure to the judiciary committee.
Senator Wall, of Beaufort, intro
duced a bill in the upper diouse to
cede a portion of Beaufort county to
the United States for the purpose of
straightening Ramshorn creek. Sena
tor Goodwin, of Laurens, introduced
a bill requiring all convicts to wear
stripes while on duty. ’
The house amended its highway bill
so as to make it conform to the sen
ate measure, by providing for only 25
sideration was. objected to, so the reso
lution was carried over until this
week.
* The intermediate' sentence bill was
introduced in both houses by the ju- J
diciary committee of each. It was
referred back to the judiciary com
mittees for final approval.
