Many to Choose From
Judge Mendel 1^. Smith, of <'mnden,
and Col. W. H. Keith, of Green*
viile, are being mentioned as suitable
timber for governor, which they
are. Added^to Lieutenant Governpj
T. B. Butler, of Gaflfnoy, and Solicitor
Ira S. Blackwood, who are already
regarded iih in the field, with
Hon. Roach S, Stewart, of Lancasa
ter, also spoken of, but not formally
announced, they make an impressive
line-up. There'# no doubt that South
Carolina could secure an able governor
frbin this crowd, though that's
not saying by any means that the
ablest man in the bunch would be the
winner.?Chester Reporter.
NC?I?HER 'CAN I)LE'FLIGHT
The world is culled upon to shed
another tear for one who was more
venturesome than wise?Mr. Urban
F. Ditenpm, Jr., cattleman of Montana,
who was seized with the impulse
to defy f.ite and try a transAtlantic
voyage in a small airplane. All
indications are that Mr. Dltemau
has gone to Davy Jones' locker
with his tiny plane. Had he made
this attempted flight to Knglnnd, he
would have been able to pose for U
<
brief moment in the limelight as n
successful adventurer* though even
in that cafe he would hardly hav#
contributed in any tangible way to
the advance of aeonautica! progress.
ATU is, he is merely another man
who attempted the spectacular?and
lost.
The world is sorry to lone him.
He probably wax a man of energy
and inialive who could have added
much to the work of the world by
aticking to the more obacuig) lfnoa for,
which he waa better litted. But since
he would, l)ke the moth, attempt the
candle-flight,'3 there ia nothing elae
to la said except to express regret
that a certain strange psychology
moved him in that fashion.?Greenville
News.
A daughter waa born to LA*, and
Mrs. T, W, Kvuns, of Miami, Kla.,
a)>oard a large cabin airplane as it
circled 1,200 feet above Miami. The
baby, a seven and one-half pound
girl was born 20 minutes after the
plane took off from the airport here,
piloted by a commercial flier. Mrs.
Evans was attended by Dr. W. A.
Haggard, of Miami, and two nurses.
Dr. Evans, Mrs. Evans' mother, Mrs.
A. H. Opfer, and H. O. Townsend
also were in the cabin.

JHow to Prevent .
Worms in Hogs
Worms probably chum# greater 40**
in hog raising than any other single
agency of the parasite.
Worm* may be prevented by applying
modern methods. Hogs should
have a good mineral mixture kept
before them all the time. A good
mineral mixture is as follows:
Charcoal, 1 bushel; hardwood ashes
1 bushel; salt, H pounds; sulphur 4
pounds; air stacked lime 4 pounds;
pulverised copperas 2 pounds.
First mix the lime, salt and-Juil*
phur wejj and then mix the charcoal
and ushes. Dissolve the copperas in
2 quarts of hot water and sprinkle
it over the whole' mass,, mixing it
thoroughly. Store this In a barrel
under shelter and keep some of it
in an open, shallow box where the
hogs can get it as they wish. This
is not a remedy for worms but it is
a splendid preventative.
Another precaution to be taken is
to have the sow thoroughly washed,
especially her mammary system,,
a good disinfectant such as creasotfe
preparation, about tbn days or two
weeks before she is due to farroft
and then place her in a clean shed
or hobte in a clean Held where hogs
have pot been recently. If sows ar-J
allowed to farrow in a house or pen
where hogs have been staying it is
very likely that the new pigs will
become infested with worms from
the ground or worm eggs either fyom
the ground or the dams teats. It is
desirable to have a crop of something
green growing in the lot or field
where the sow is to Ik? placed for
farrowing and raising her pigs.
If hogs or pigs are to be treated
for worms which have already infested
the swine it is recommended
that they be given chenopodium or
American worm seed oil. Give tnis
at the rate of one drop for every two
pounds of hog weight. If the pig
weighs 30 pounds give him 15 drops,
and give it in about 2 or 3 ounces of
castor oil. Keep the pig or hog off
of feed the night before the remedy
is to be administered the following
morning. Give the dose as a drench
out of a bottle. Allow the animal
to stand on all 4 fi'et, raise the head
slightly. Allow food and water six
jfiours later.?Henry D. Green, County
Agent.
South Carolina spent the huge shim
of $16,654,236.36 in operating its public
schools for white and negroes
during the fiscal year 1928-29, according
to the annual report of State
superintendent of Education James
H. Hope which has recently been
made public.

Penney Can See This 1
State to The Front
Speaking last Wednesday night at
the JeffeiHon Hotel, at Columbia, be- ?
f..t. a representative group of South r
Carolinian# at a banquet tender^ by )
the Columbia chamber of commerce ?
an*l Foremost Dairies, J. C Penney, c
the millionaire merchant and dairy (
developer, said that his belief grows, f
day by day, that the South can take ?
tank as the leading dairy center in t
trn- United States. And to that end t
he is expending his money and h!s t
own personal time. , >
"I cannot impress upon you too '
fully," he said, "my belief in the 1
South. Most of my personal inter- *
ests, outside of my interest in the J. *
i 1
C. Penney Company stores, arc in '
the S^outh." v '
Asking his hearers to take his mea- '
sage "as a personal chat" rather
than as an address, Mr. Penney, in j
straightforward, easy language, pictured
for his hearers his ambition to
be of real service.
"It has been a distinct pleasure to *
be privileged to talk to you," he said. 1
.it will be an equully distinct pleas- ]
u:e to be accorded the privilege of '
working along with you from now o:i 1
it: such manner as I may be able to *
work m the furtherance of a common J
:rm the attainment for South Cmi- *
olin.i of the prosperity which is in ]
-tore for this State." 1
.James B. Murphey, vice president
..! the chamber of commerce, prosid- 1
cd. Mr, Penney was welcomed by '
Mr Murphy and by Mayor Owens, ^
pu sident Sikes, of Clemson; Dr. Wil- '
l am Weston, who spoke of Mr. Pen- '
rev's world vision; R. M. Cooper, of '
Wi-;uky, who said Mr. Penney was 1
.-reking to give the dairyman a mar- '
k. !; B. M. Edwards, who spoke on '
:a bankers part in agriculture; Dr. (
\V. W. Long, extension director, who 1
vd the many forward steps that c
have taken place in this state in re- 1
.ei t years, and Senator Jhmes H. *
Hammond, who invited Mr. Penney- '
to come to South Carolina to live.
Mr. Penney told of the great plea- |
sure his visit to Columbia had given ^
him; of his favorable impression of
the progress!veness of' the Phate as -j
evidenced by iodine, fine herds of cat- J
tie, excellent poultry and other 1
things. He said he intended estab- j
lishing an experiment farm in this
state like he had done in others.
"There is real promise in n state," :
he said, "where all activities of the '
state are showing real progress."
Mr. Penney hopes to double his j
stores in this state, he said, and to
increase rapidly- his Foremost Dairy
plants.
<
"1 am impressed." he said, "witn
the potential possibilities of the state
for dairying. Soil and climatic conditions
are excellent. If the results
of the iodine tests shoyv positive improvement
of milk through the introduction
of iodine contents, the
dairy possibilities will be further expanded."
SETTLES SEATING PROBLEM
I
???????? %
Camden .Members Find Places by
Baby Pictures.
-- A-uo.vel seating arrangement was i
introduced in the banquet given here
Monday night for the Rotarians by
the Rotaryanns, wives and daughters
of members of the local club. The
men picked their dinner partners by
choosing from baby pictures of the
women present. Each man then
found his own place at one of the
tables b\ finding an old and probably
long forgotten picture of himself.
Another novelty of the evening was
lhe fact that the dinner was progressive.
After each course the two women
seated at each of the tables
moved up to the next table, providing
a change of partners for everybody
several t ines during the evening.
The nar.quet was held in the American
Legion hall, which was sea- I
sonably decorated with Hallo wee; |
novelties. Small tables for four, ar - j
ranged ah ut the room, carried on;
the general orange and black eoh :
scheme.
After the blessing by the Rev. A
D. McArn. Mrs. R. B. Pitts, chanman
in charge of the evening's entertainment,
welcomed th<? guests in a
few lines of verse appropriately written
for the occasion. During the evening
Mrs. John Wilson of Sumter,
who with her husband, a member of
the Sumter Rotary club and honorary
member of the Camden club, had
come over for the banquet, sang a
solo, accompanied at the piano by
Lewis Moore.
Music was also provided by the
ensemble of guests, who sang seveiai
old favorites during the evening. After
dinner every one took part in the
old -fashioned square dance, which
was conducted by E. B. Budding . "

Penny May Get
Hartsville Dairy
HarUville, Oct. 23.-d. C. Penney,
lutfd millionaire merchant and pioteer
dairyman, who haa long been,
ritally interested in the dairying posilbilitiea
in the South, waa the honired
guest of Mr. apd Mrs. David K.
?oker in Hartsville Wednesday. The
act that -Mr. Penney left his inter!?ts
at the Squfh Carolina State Fa.r
;y visit liartsville evidence the
jreat dairyman was interested in
his community, and certainly Hartadlle
appreciated hia presence. Mr.
'enney came to Hartaville to inspect
he famous Coker-Cuernsey herd and
,o look ,ovor the wonderful plunt
)reeding experiments on the Coker
i'edigreed Seed Farms. On the trip
:o Hartsvilje, Mr. Penney was accompanied
by two other Foremost
Dairy officials?'Hugo J. Larsen, vice
president and general manager, and
Vir. Bryant, personal assistant to Mr.
Penney.
Confirming rumors which have in
Tie past few days spread throughout
he st^ate, Mr. Penney stated that he
vas deeply interested in the possibilties
of establishing a dairy demonitration
farm in the state, similar to
.he one now in operation at Penney
Farms, Florida, and at Savannan,
ia. He indicated that his personal
preference would fall on land located
n this section.
Another interesting announcement
,vds the statment that Hartsville had
Deen selected as a desirable location
tor a Foremost dairy plant, as soon
is community interests could guarmtee
a sufficient milk suppjy. Mr.
[.arsen, who is in control of production
operations for Foremost, outined
the requirements and several
Hartsville citizens who attended ,?he
inference, assured Mr. Penneys
epresentatives that the requirements
easily could be met. It is understood
negotiations have been in progress
'or some time toward securing a '
foremost plant at Hartsvitte and rtow
that definite information has been
.riven as to the requirements, Hartsville
will proceed at once to meet
;hem. -* * *
