TO 8TOCK STBBAM8 WITH PISH. (government Plans To Restore Sport To Former Prcsti(e. Washington.?Game fishing, opco one of America's most popular sports, is destined to regain its former prestige as the result of a campaign launched by the government, it was announced Tuesday. The Department of Commerce has started a two fold drive first to stock the rivers and streams of the country with game fish, and secbnd to obtain strict enforcement of gam? laws by the states. The rebuilding of the commercial fisheries to regain what was formerly a tremendous supply of foodstuffs is another objective. Protuction of the government fish cultural stations in the Mississippi Valley during the year ending June IJOth, will be 5,301,862,000 fish and eggs. Commissioner of Fisheries, Henry O'Malley, announced. ' Through operations of the Fisheries bureau the work has assumed an international aspect, quantities of fish eggs having been shipped recently to Canada, Germany, Switzerland, Czecho-Slovakia and Japan for planting in the rivers of those countries. Izaak Waltons in many quarters of the globe will be introduced to the sport of angling for some native American game fish. The government has stocked thousands of rivers*and lakes in this country with 48 varieties of game and food fish from the flash and fighting salmon and black bass to the slow moving cod. O'Malley's report showed as an important method of conserving the supply of commercial food fish the placing of 'spawn takers" on fishing boats i on the great lakes and along the Atlantic Coast. These agents collect fish eggs, bringing them to the government hatcheries for development. Fishermen generally have cooperated in the work. The report said that the famous Potomac shad is rapidly disappearing. Melons By The Carload.

Fort Worth, Texas, July 17.?Elliott D. Chippa, lumber man, wan shot and fatally wounded just before 5 o'clock this afternoon in the First Baptist church here by the Rev. J. Frank Norris, pastor. Chipps had gone to the church to remonstrate with Norris about some of his utterances. Norris, a nationally known fundamentalist revivalist, immediately went to the county court house and for some time was cLoseted with county officials, making no statement in the meantime. Examination of Chipp's body at the hospital at which he died within a few minutes of his arrival in an ambulance,, showed three bullet wounds. Chipps, who was 50 years old, came to Texas from Virginia in 1905. Norris, in-a statement, made a plea of self defense, alleging that Chipps had threatened to kill him, whereupon Norris reached in. a desk drawer, took out the night watchman's pistol ahd fired four times at Chipps. Norris immediately after making bis statement furnished bond of $10,000, signed by thirty persons, many of whom were members of his congregation. . . Chipps ihts afternoon had visited Mayor H. C. Meacham, but said nothing of his intended visit to the pastor, the mayor said tonight. "Chipps and the Rev, Norris were close friends," he added. Plan To Show Hogs at The Fairs. Clemsbn College, July 19.?Now is the time that the farmers should be planning to show their hogs at the fall fairs. They should be shown at the community and county fairs and if successful there should be taken to the state fair and other big shows. A winning herd is the best of advertisement and it will help to sell surplus stock . ' ? Show animals should be given special attCprtion.The young pigs ought to be well grown out and mature hogs put in good condition by fair time. These hogs should be separated from the Test of ]bhe herd and given good pastures and plenty of shade and fresh waiter. It is also best to separate the young from the older animals in order to regulate their feed. They should be fed a well balanced ration ?one high in muscle and bone building material./ The hogs should be fed so they will be in full bloom by the time of the show, and the eye of ori'S who carries the feed pall must determine whether or not "his hogs are making the desired gains. Weights will help to determine whether they are of sufficient size for their ages. The toes may be trimmed to make the hogs stand more upright on their pasterns, but if done, it should be 'some time before the show, since the feet sometimes become sore. Long, shaggy hairs should be trimmed from the ears and face. The^evening before the show the hogs may be oilecF and the next morning they will only need a brushing. One should get his animals aqcustomed to being handled and they will show to better advantages in the ring. f *, C . ' ?" Big Wheat ViefiT fnKansas. Topeka, --Kans., July 19.?Great mounds of harvested gold from the wheat fields of Kansas lie exposed to the rain and sun along the railroad tracks in the Sunflower state today because the yield is so great and the haste to sell is 60 acute that all storage facilities are full to the bursting point and the growers are crying for freight cars. - - ? Turn On The Light The Columbia Record, in a ringing editorial, offer.* some extremely pertinent suggestions with regard to the banking situation in South Carolina. It is time, the Record contends, that something more should be done than has yet been done "to prevent dissipation of the hard-earned money of tho plain people through these repeated bank failures." There >fras plenty of excuse for the bank failures .Which followed deflation In 1920 and the advent of the boll weevil. These grew out of conditions which, as The Record says, were in many cases altogether abnormal and even conservative bankers suffered. It would have been just as well then if in every case all the facts reflating to such failures had been laid fully and frankly before the public. Certainly this should have been done in the case of all the more recent bank failures that have occurred. Not only are the stockholders and depositors entitled to information cf this kind, full and explicit and prompt but the general public is entitled to it also. A bank failure is in any event a shock to the public confidence. The larger the bank the greater the shock. The harmful effects of such, shocks W??WW?????????Miw ?p?mmmmm*mmmwmm reach far beyond the immediate losses in money, shattering credit, breaking down sound habits, undermining character. In South Carolina there are thousands and tens of thousands ofpeople who do not feed that their interests are properly looked after in 'this matter. That is a bad situation in itself. It can be cured and it should be cured, but there is only one way to cure it. That way first.of all is to turn on the light and then to apply the proper remedies, especially a greater vigilance where vigilance is needed. The bankers of the state owe X ^ themselves and owe it ot the state to take the initiative in correcing the intolerable situation which has per- j i??B mitted so many unexplained and odorous bank failures in South Carolina. They will make a great mistake if they do not do this. They . phould know, they must know how sound ?_ baitking practices can boenf orced in the general interest. Ono thir^g, as the Record further suggests, certainly can be done. When one bank fails the receiver appointed to adjust its affairs should not only be competent and trustworthy, 4he should be a man "who has been in no manner, as stockholder, - officer or otherwise, connected with or interested in the bank, and one w*ho has no ; connection whatsoever with the office of the state bank, examiner."? ~ I Charleston News and Courier.
