M. Manning, of Sumter county, to build his tobacco curing house "With concrete tile, be nays. Anotiter ? big reason is that he can cure ewo? potatoes in It when the tobacco is out of the way. ,, There is always fine dancer about , a wooden curing house, reminds J. E. Hooker, agricultural engineer for ihe Clemaon College. extension Service, who has designed a combination concrete curing house. If a 1 curing of tobacco burns \n a concrete tile, barn, only a few replace- ; mente are necessary before continuing. , Mr. Hooker points out that hia ( combination curing baru is tightly i built so as to - save materially , on } fuel and to absolutely control the ; temperature against unusual heat or < cold, even in windstorms. Another surprising 'fact is that a concrete tile barn can be built for about the price of a wooden one, i says Mr. Hooker. He has plans for a combination tobacco and sweet potato curing barn that can be buili for $400 to, $425. They can be. built as quickly or more quickly than plank bams. Concrete buildings are permanent, with indefinitely long life, reminds Mr. Hooker. Th?y look better usually, than frame barns. For these . reasons they enhance the value of I farm property more than wooden I structures, declares Mr. Hooker.

A successful hunter of this vicinity, related one of his many interesting experiences to a group of his friends. ~ ~ It seems that /the hunter, while hunting somewhere below Charleston, had about killed the bag limit and was selecting only big duck to shoot when he realized that he had knocked down an. unusually large duck. Unfortunately, in- his hurry to get home, it did'i^ot occur to him to examine the big duck and deterImW exactly what kind igf a duck it | was. The day after, . when he had re-1 turned home, ha was called to lodfc^ at one of the-ducks he bad killed., As the duck had already , been dressed it was too late to tell what kind of a duck it was but it was discovered that an Eskimo bone arrowhead was imbedded in the breast of the duck. It is believed that the arrow head, Which is as sharp as a needle and one and one-half inches in length, was made from a walrus bone. The meat around the arrow head was in perfect condition and indicated that the wound must have been healed for several weeks. Doubtless the duck was a visitor from beyond the i.umlla jLUJL?H .JLlU ALJl JlilL' Arctic 'Ottcle.?Charleston News And Courier. Three Negroes Drown.
