Piedmont Farmers Should (Jet Feeders from Lower Counties. Clemson pollftgt, JAO. ?& "Fai mere of Greenville, Spartanburg, An derson, and other up-state counties w|io are now buying feeder pijft to carry oy^r io iii?xt d<? not nerd, to go to Tennessee and other states to .secure " their pigs; in fact, they can buy to hotter advantage from farmers in Orangeburg, Sumter, Barnwell, and other lower state coun ties and should give those farmers the preference," saya W. J, Sheely, Ex- ; tension Livestock Specialist, in dis cussing the present demand of I Mod- J mont County farmers for pigs to re place tho mature stuff that has gone'] to market or boon butchered. Most of tho pigs that have been.] shipped into the up-country for feed ers have come from Tennessee, through the men who make a busi ness of supplying the demand and who find it easy to get animals from the established markets there. Hut with a supply in our own state, in volving short freight hauls, and with Extension Service agents ready to promote the movement of stuff from those who want to sell to those who want to buy, there is every reason why "Made in South Carolina" pigs should have the preference. Mr. Sheelcy suggests that up-coun try farmers interested in buying pigs should get in touch with their county agents or the Extension Service live stock specialists in order to get in formation regarding material which is available from those counties where pigs are for sale. In this way two groups of South Carolina farmers will be benefitted. ? GENERAL NEWS NOTES. Item* of Interest Gathered From Many Sources.

Stylish Dressed Woman (Jets Money At Pendleton. (Yorkville Enquirer.) All officers of the law in Ander son county as well as those of ad joining counties, were on Monday re quested by Mayor II. W. Seawright, of Pendleton, to be on the lookout for and arrest, a handsome and sty lishly dressed young woman going under the name of Mrs. Mary Cox Sloan, who claimed to be a resident of Sandy Springs, S. C., and the 1 daughter of Max Siegal, of Anderson. She had victimized Mayor Seawright out of $160 by means of a worthless check, it is alleged. ? In addition to being mayor of Pen dleton, Mr. Seawright also success fully conducts a large furniture busi ness in the heart of the town. Early Saturday morning a young, very attractive and fashionably dressed woman drove up to his store in a new Ford car. Alighted, and entering the store, she told Mr. Seawright that she. was the daughter of Max Siegal, a well known business man of An derson; that she and her husband? Robert Sloan? had just moved to Sandy Springs and she wanted to. buy furniture for her house. After look ing over many pieces she finally de cided upon a sufficient number of j pieeefc to total $102. In payment she proffered a check for $1(30 on the Bank of Anderson made out by her mother, Mrs. Max Siegal, of Ander son, and in favor of her son-in-law, Robert Sloan, husband of the woman offering the check, asking Mr. Sea wright at the time to accept the check and pay her the difference of $58. Mr. Seawright expressed his regret at being unable to pay the dif ference, whereupon the young lady said: she would step down to the Bank of Pendleton, get the check cashed and pay for the ordered fur niture. in a few minutes she return ed to Mr. Seawright's store and stated that she had been unahle to get the check cashed because she was not known ? would not Mr. Seawright go with her to the bank and help her? Mr. Seawright was very busy and simply endorsed the check. At the bank the check was cashed ? but "Mrs. Mary Cox Sloan" failed to re turn to Mr. Seawright's store and pay the $102 on thy furniture and tell him where to m'liver it. 'I ime passed, whereupon Mr. Seawright got suspicious, made inquiry at the bank, found the check for $1*10 with his en dorsement, had been promptly cashed. Then the Bank of Pendleton officials got in tout h with tin* Bank of Ander son, on'y t < ? learn that tin* check was W( ? i hiess. Nothing more has been he; i'Lor seen of rhe young handsome, f.',.->h <i.." bly <!n ssed Mrs. Mar\ fox Sloa n." A Careful Patient. A woman wh?*e throat had trou bled her for a long time grew impa tient at the slow progress she was making and made complaint to her doctor. "Mad&M." said the physician, I can never cure you of tins throat trouble unless you stop talking and give your throat a complete rest." "But, doctor," objected his patient, I'm very careful what I say. 1 never use har?h language, or any thing of that kind." ? Philadelphia Ledger. Three Years for Manslaughter. Bamberg, .Jan. 25. ? The case of the state against Curtis Hutto, charged with the murder of Nathaniel Z. Fel der, Jr., concluded today, the jury rendering n verdict of man slaughter and Hut to waa aente.nc#d by Judge R. W. Memminger of Char leston to three yoars at hard labor j on the ehaingong or in the state pen- | itentiary. Motion for a new trial j was refused. Looking Forward. It was indeed n relief to the minds of the ancient inhabitants of beauti ful Camden, alas, ho tew remaining, to road over the signature of the paving engineer, that. ilLttll the ex-, tensive paving contemplated only fiw (6) trees would bo cut down. These five trees arc among .the most glorious in Camden, and repre sent combined ages of fiOO and mort years, no doubt. To the writer's knowledge, on the streets, and in the school grounds, more than 20 trees have already fallen under the i.xe, the result of years of patient work and loving care, and it is gratifying to know that the. Civic League has h program for city tree planting to re- ; place, as far- as possible, what has 1 been destroyed. To the mechanical eye of the | trained surveyor, no doubt the j straight, clean cut lines of paved ' roadways and sidewalks are more ap pealing than irregular linen of God's trees, and it is his business to boost concrete, etc., but in modern city planning, a trained landscape engi neer Hhould go hand in hand with the paving expert and save all trees pos sible by paving around them or by laying out a line for the planting of suitable trees whose shade and beauty will bless generations unborn. It is the just and undeniable heri tage of the child to be able to say with the Psalmist of old, "The lines; are fallen unto me in pleasant places, yea, I have a goodly heritage." ? If all paving and no tree saving continues, the time will surely coma when the rich, weary city dweller, will get into his automobile and spin ; along miles and miles of paved streets to reach God's country, to picnic un der the trees, to listen to the birds and breathe the health giving ozone of which he has deprived his children. While the poor, with no means of transportation, will swelter along the treeless streets and long for the days of "auld lang syne." Witness the hegira of the teeming millions from the real cities, by rail, by car, on foot, rushing from the city to the country, the moment a holiday is I declared! We can never be a great ' city, but we can always be a beauti ful and healthful one! A Dweller on Paved, Barren Streets, who loves Camden Quoen Mary of Kngland acts as her own housekeeper.
