Say May Make Hay OfPlowed-up Cotton Clemson College, Juty 17. ? Siyce the cotton reduction campaign has been successful and a large acreage of cotton is to be destroyed soon, it seems wise to consider the possibili ties of using the cotton plants to be destroyed as feed for livestock, says Prof. J. P. LaMaster, Chief of the dairy depatrment, who suggests mak ing hay out of the cotton plants to be plowed up. Since there has never been an oc casion before when cotton was avail able as it is under our present cir cumstances, no experimental feeding trials have been reported for hay made from the cotton plant. However Prof. LaMaster states, feed analyses have been reported on the mature cotton plants from samples taken in early October. The analysis of the plant at this stage of maturity shows it to be almost identical with cowpea hay when cut at a ripe stage. Al though the stage at which the cotton will be cut now would likely show a very different composition from that which would exist in October, it is reasonable to expect that it would compare favorable with cowpeas when cut in bloom and early pod stage. By cutting the cotton plants and cuiing them for hay in the similar manner to which cowpea hay is made the farmer would be able to clear the land of cotton stalks and at the same time have this opportunity to produce considerable hay of good feed value as a by-product of the cotton acreage reduction program. The yields of hay per acre will, of course, vary with the age, the variety of seed used, the quality of land, the fertilizer treatment and the rainfall for a given section of the state. It is reasonable to expect, however, that from 500 to 2,000 pounds of hay may ? be made per acre. Although there is little or no scientific data on which to make recommendations for feeding cotton plant hay, a few furmers in South Carolina have reported using it with very satisfactory results. The Chemistry Department of clemson College is analyzing samples of cotton plants and the analyses should be available within a week. 6 6 6 LIQUID - TABLETS - SALVE Checks Malaria in 3 days, Colds first day, Headaches or Neuralgia in 30 minutes.

Post Smashes Former Record New Yoik, July 22 (AP)? Wiley Post shot down from the darkui;>3 at 11 p. m. tonight (Eastern Standard time), completing his world flight for a new record. His appearance, almost an hour earlier than he had looked for, was so sudden that the huge throng was , startled. j The flier was not seen until he i came down almost in the center rf the field. He landed from the north, taxied his plane to the end of the field and around to tho front of the administration building. His lr 'ing was vimed unofficially to give him a world record of 1S6 hours, 60 minutes, nearly 22 hours ahead of the speed be and Harold Gatty had set in 1931. Mrs. Post was in the crowd that had been waiting at Floyd Bennett field since early evening for the Okal" homa flier, who reached here after a non-stop trip from Edmonton, Can ada. Maj. J. Nelson Kelly, superintend- j ent of the field, who recorded Post's takeoff at 4:10 a. m. last Saturday, clocked his return officially at 10:59*5 p. m. The enthusiasm of the crowd for the 34-year-old aviator's stirring achievement, had exceeded anything ever seen at the field, attendants said. Photographers pressed around the purple and white monoplane to take pictures while Post still was in his seat. As the deafening cheers continued unabated, Post arose and waved a '.?ouple of times then slumped back into his seat. Apparently he was close to exhaustion. After several minutes Post was nillod from the cockpit by Lee Tren holm, his representative, and a police man. He was taken immediately to an automobile and there was no op portunity for any one to speak to him. He was wearing a blue shi't and had a handkerchief tied around his forehead. In the forefront of the throng that had rushed to the Winnie Mae was a group of Oklahoma men, who had flown here to welcome Post. At 11:23 p. jm bis automobile drove away from the field for the midtown hotel, where bis headquar ters had been maintained. The crowd continued to swarm around the ship, however, and police had difficulty guarding it from sou venir hunters. Plans have been made to have it on display at the battery until a formal reception is held by the city in honor of the aviator. Police sirens screeched as officers formed an escort around the automo bile. The route back to the city was a long one across the western end of Long Island and an East river bridge. However, the way had been cleared Kv previous police arrange ment, A bed was ready at the hotel for Post, who had snatcehd only short naps on his journey. He had com plained at Edmonton of a headache. The aviator's dramatic return to the fiekf from which ho had taken 1 at dawn a week ago was fully an hour earlier than the crowd had ex pected. Not ? nly was he unseen until he dropped down almost to the ground but the roar of his powerful motor was not heard. Meanwhile the hotel was virtual ly deserted. The crowd did not know definitely where he was going. In only a few minutes, however, a few cars rolled up near tho entrance and a group began to form around the doorway. At the field Trenhohn was the first to greet tho flier but tho words they exchanged could not ho heard. Mrs. Post (li<l not go out on tho field but i remained in the automobile in which Post was hurried away.

VANDALS DESECRATE OLD CEMETERY GRAYS Vandalism, the acme of shocking and mysterious, is the desecration of the grave of the grandfather 0f At torney Thomas F. McDow, in an old cemetery on the lino between Lan caster and Kershaw counties done recently. John D. Cunningham, the grand father of Mr. McDow, was buried 82 years ago in the Summerille church yard. It is now a very old and aban doned cemetery, seldom visited. Word came to one of the family that the ^ K ave had been desecrated, and it was forwarded to Mr. McDow, who at once had an investigation made. One of the family accompanied by former Governor Richards, and others found first that the large monument of a shaft on a marble base which in turn rested on a stone foundation with steps, had been torn down and completely removed, the heavy stones being scattered around. The grave Itself was open down two feet, and the dirt below showed signs of having been dug out and thrown back. The investigators dug clown into this dirt in the grave and found splinters of the broken coffin, some charred indicating the descration was done at night. The skull of th eold gentelman buried there had been tak en out and thrown back, and all the evidence was that the grave had been thoroughly ransacked. There is no cluo to the vandals, and no conceivable motive for the shocking act which required much hard work to toa rdown the monu ment of heavy stones and dig open the gr&ve. The condition of the soil proved that it wan done since the last rain, before the investigation, which was over a week previously. The motive for the act is difficult to guess.

Richards, former governor, and Mrs. Richards of Liberty Hill of the engagement of their daughter, 1 Mildred Ann, to Robert Chester Francis of Roanoke, Va. The mar- I riage will take place in the early fall. Miss Richards is a charming young woman and has many friends in Co- j lumbia. She is a graduate of Win- , throp college and tor the last four' years has taught music at Laurens. Mr. Francis is the son of Mrs. James A. Francis of Roanoke and the late Mr. Francis. He is boy's work secretary of the Central Young Men's Christian association at Roanoke. During the summer Mr. Francis is director of Camp Johnson at Olaf, Va. 'Ihe nows of Miss Richards' en gagement was made known to a group of her close friends at a lovely party given at 6 o'clock Friday even ing by Mrs. A. L. McCaskill at her home at Liberty Hill. Pink and white garden flowers in cluding crape myrtle, were artistical ly arranged in the rooms. In tho din ing room a largo white wedding bell showered with flowers was suspend ed above the table, and crystal can dlesticks held lighted tapers. The guests were met at the front door by Miss Lisle Hay and Miss Edith Richards, who pinned on them corsages of mixed f lowers. family was desecrated and the van- | dais caught and convicted. They said they were hunting treasure. How anybody now can bolieve that money was burled with the venerable John S. Cunningham over 80 years ago is hard to understand. ?

During tho evening the guests were given the threads of a "spider web" to unwind. At the end of thn threads were concealed peanut shells, in one of which the announcement of | Miss Richards' engagement to Mr. ! .Francis was found.
