The Chronicle wishes to go on record
as endorsing unequivocally Senator
G. K. Laney's bill to compell public
schools in the State to use the
6ame text books. This is a proposition
that The Chronicle has been agitating
and fighting for for years and
Is one that we believe will appeal to
every fair-minded member of the Legislature
when properly presented, and
we kndw Senator Laney knows how
to present it.

The placing of beef on the tariff free '
list has resulted in a vast increase s
in the importation of foreign beef and 1
meat products. During October and (
November the department of agricul- *
. ture reported 16,000,000 pounds of '
meat and its products were brought (
front abroad. This is more than trip- (
pie the amount imported for the 1
whole of 1912. Canada supplied 6,- 1
000,000 pounds; Argentina, 6,000,000; *
P Australia $3,000,000 and Urugary 550,- *
OOOtfiead *
Mexico were imported. But, neveu-- ?
theless, with all this addition to the J
Beef supply, beef is still selling in *
Cheraw at 25 cents per pound?and
mighty poor quality of beef at that. 1
t
(
Loss of $129,000,000 in two years by
the unsuspecting public through swin- ]
dling operations carried on by the use ,
of the United States mails has stirred |
the postal authorities to a drastic j
campaign against fraudlent schemers, j
Wholesale use of the government's i
right to deny the mailing priviledge .
to persons or firms whose oiferations
may be tainted with "get-rich-quick" |
and other false promises in the wea- <
pon to be employed. An effort to stop ,
this swindling by reliance upon the ,
criminal courts has proved ineffective
according to W. H. Lamar, the attorney
general for the post office department
whose annual report has just
been made public.

to prevent washing by rains. To protect
the seed and plants from snow,
frost or cold winds (which cause a >
great deal of evaporation of moisture,
a, cold frame (covered with tobacco j
cloth or plant muslin) is built around :
the bed immediately after sowing the
seed To do this inclose the bed with <
a frame made of boards one or two
inches thick, eight or tfcn inches wide
placed on edge and securely fastened
at corners either by nailing strips
across the corners or by driving down
pegs with top extension as high as
top edge of boards. Another way of )
making this frame is by using logs \
ten inches in diameter, laying them
around the bed with small bank of ,
dirt against same to fill thoir open- ')
ings As soon as the seed have been ;
sown, place the plant muslin or tobacco
cloth over the entire bed, let
ting some rest on laths placed across <
from side to side or by one lath placed
in the center from one end of the bed i
to the other. Make the covering tight \
so wind will not blow is off. Should ^
snow fall on the bed remove it as J
soon as possible. By taking care of
this cloth ii may be used two or three
seasons. ' ^
Careful sowing of seed is necessary Q
n order to get them evenly distrib- h
jted over the entire bed. The best \
nethod of sowing is to place the i
linount of seed required in a vessel g
Aith about two quarts of wood ashes :>
)r meal and mix well, sow evenly G
Aith regular sweeping movement of &
he hand, holding hand near the g
ground. The ashes or meal will show Q
ust where the seed have been sown, s
iVhen seed are sown, sprinkle the
led to iirm the earth or the bed may jj
ie firmed by laying down a board and q
standing on it, turning the board over <!
ind over until the entire bod has been ?
covered. As soon as you have done G
his, cover the bed with tl<? tobacco ?
doth and leave alone until about feu ^
lays before transplanting when the g
'over should be turned back about (

he time of exposure by an hour oy e
wo each day until two or three days jj

In Virginia and the Carolinas seed *
ieds are sown from January 1 *i
hrough February, the time being gov
>rned by weather conditions. Beds
ire usually planted at least two
nonths before date of last killing
'rost in the locality. Average date of 1

Attention should be called to the
fact that frosts in the fall are very i
