AIDING THE FARM MOVEMENT.
By a systematic campaign to advance
the study of agriculture in suburban
and rural schools in the county,
promote actual gardening and
farming among pupils and aid the
farmer by placing at his disposal the
services and advice of experts in the
"ownno otrrii-lltlira] fiftlfls. ChiCHCO
has set the example for American
cities, towns and hamlets, be they
; large or small, to get in actual
touch and co-operation with the
"Back to the Farm" movement. And
Chicago has done no more thah to
take advantage of recognized truth of
dependancy of the towns upon their
farming and gardening surroundings.
Every town needs the product of
the tanner's skill and soil to sustain
town life; besides, the town must
have the farmer's trade. If the farmer
is more successful, his products
and _trade will increase in the town
in'proportion. By aiding him to make
two blades grow where one grew, the
town is helping itself. This does not
mean that the town should tell the
farmer when to plow his corn. It
should aid him in a practical manner
by co-operation, the best means of assistance.
;
Through the co-operation of the
Chicago civic organizations with the
board of county commissioners, it
has been possible to engage a "farm
professor" for Cook county. He,
with five rural directors outside the
city, has general charge of farm work
and they give all their time to lending
the farmers what experience and
assistance are possible. Chicago also
organized boys' one-acre clubs, interested
parents, introduced university
methods of farm training, urged
girls to cultivate home gardens and
offered substantial piizes. The result
is that the whole public is taking
an interest in the farm movement
and its vast importance" to the city.
Other localities will be quick to adopt
the Chicago plan. It is an opportunity
for smallest'communities as well
as the largest ones. It is an opportunity
lor this town and would produce
unbounded results for good.

fight for the change in name of Clemson
college, but we do not specially
care for the name of Calhoun. If the

#20,000 for National Guard.
The ways and means committee of
the house have agreed on an appropriation
of $20,000 for the maintenance
of the National Guard, and will
fix this amount in the appropriation
.jill, according to a statement made
in Columbia Tuesday. The appropri- .
at ion for this item last year was only
$12,000.
After nearly two hours debate, on
Tuesday, the house refused to adopt
a new rule, introduced by Mr Stevenson,
which would have put an end to
filibustering for this session. The
rule said that, after the previous
question had been agreed to, not more '
than one motion to adjourn or recede
from business could be made before
the question under consideration wasdisposed
of. Of the members of the
house, 58 voted for the adoption ol
the rule, while 44 voted against it.
As it requires a two-thirds vote to
amend the rules of the house, the
Stevenson rule was rejected.
A bill to amend section 2353 of
volume 1 of the code of laws of South
Carolina in reference to cotton weighers
in Chesterfield county has been
introduced by Senator Laney.
The House Tuesday night refused
to sanction the transfer of the College
for Women to the board of trstees
of the University of South Carolina
in trust for the higher education of
women. By a vote of 65 to 36 the
house struck out the enacting words
of the Lumpkin joint resolution providing
for the coordination of the two
institutions under the control of the
trustees of the university. The res
olution was debated for three and one
half hours on the floor of the house
at the morning and night sessions.
Representative Stevenson was in favor
of the transfer of the College for
Women to the board of trustees of
the University of South Carolina,
while representative Odom was opLISTER'S
BOLD EXPERIMENT.
He Used His First Draining Tube on
Queen Victoria.
A strange anecdote is related in the
life of l.onl Lister by Dr. (I. T.
Wrench. It seems that Lister actually
used (jueen Victoria as the first sub
joct of one of his great experiments.
Shortly after taking tip the chair of
surgery in Kdii.hurgh. according to
Dr. Wrench. Lister was called to Balmoral
to operate on the queen for an
abscess. .Dr. Wretu h goes on to say:
"The operation was success fill. Lister
put in a strip of carbolic lint to keep
tlie wound open for drainage. But. unfortunately.
the matter of the abscess
did not come away properly, and the
queen was still feverish and in pain.
"Lister, disturbed by this unfavorable
course, walked alone in the
grounds of Balmoral, a lonely walk

".My advice to you. sir," said the physician
as lie diagnosed tbo efisc of the
dyspeptic, "is to change your hotel. Go
over to the Derringdale and live for
awhile."
"Why. doctor." said the patient, "the
food at the PeiVingdale isn't any better
than that at the Merrington!"
"I know that." said the physician,
