C. ^ ^H TO CURB STUTTRRING: Federal Public Health Service Says It Cm Be Done. A million residents of the United States stammer and stutter or have disorders of the Vocal organ*} which can be cured, According to a survey by the Public Health Service. Half of those afflicted are children and the service is conducting a campaign to interest parents in the cases which can be corrected. It is pointed out that uncorrected speech defects become a serious economic and social handicap in later life, says the New York Sun. The Public Health Service holds that "fortunately, the majority of speech defects are functional in character, not dependent on definite organic lessons, and can, therefore, be corrected. Most speech defects develops between the third and eighth year of life, "The more common forms of speech defect observed in children are : (1) retarded speech; (2) imperfect speech associated with partial deafness; (3) Imperfect speech caused by certain malformations of the organs of speech, and (4) the nervous speech disorders, such us 'stammering, stutlering end nervouB hesitation. "The normal Ohild learns to talk! largely through imitation, and when this instinct is lacking, speech'development is retarded and there exists a for pi of speech defect called by specialists' dumbness Without deafness,' which requires very careful attention and training. Other causes of retarded speech development are inattention and occasionally, strange as it may seem, lack of convegp^tion in the home. "The popular belief that children who do not learn to talk at the normal age are mentally defective is responsible for much unwarranted anxiety. While it is true that disordered speech may be an early symptom of mental defect, speech development may be delayed as late as nine years of age In children otherwise perfectly normal. "Partial deafness may also be the cause of speech defect. Most deaf mutes have perfectly normal speech organs, but do not exercise them because of inability to hear the spoken woVds. With them the underlying cause of their inability to talk is deafness. Since imitation is such a pronounced factor in the development of speech in children, careful tests should Wmade of a\\ speech defeetvvos' for fchW dlcovery of partial deafness which may easily account for the imperfect speech. Such children should always be referred to an ear specialist for treatment,, and if treatment is incf-! fective lip reading should be taught. "The most usual form of speech disorder is 'stammering' or 'stuttering.' From, the st&ndpoint of development "then^ HT6 twrr distinctive" types, "brie" which commences with the development of speech and the other that begins after the child has learned to speak naturally. The first form is the most difficult to correct. "The underlying cause of stammer; ing is purely mental. It is essentially an emotional disturbance, nnd implies lessened ability to meet a difficult situation. It is most frequently observed in \the so-called nervous highly strung children. As these children grow older they subconsciously fear that their speech organs will refuse to work and have- the horror of being the object of ridicule. A sence of inferiority develops, establishing a vicious circle?the greater the dread, the more imperfect their,speech. "According to some observers, stammering is more or less common among left-handed children when they are taught to become right-handed writers. This opinion is largely responsible for the objection to educators attempting to train left-hand children to become right-hand. It is also believed to be more common among itftys than girls." *. Seventyf-ive insane patients were saved from the Dunning state hospital near Chicago, Tuesday night, when fire broke out in the institution.

J Easy Matter to Kill Hibernating Insects v Winter hibernation stages of field insects can be considerably reduced in numbers by means of a few appro* priate control measures, says M. H. Brunson, extension entomologist. But hibernating quarters of the difflgftent insects vary widely, whibh necessitates a variution in the pMthq^; of extermination. Following are several injurious insects with the control procedure Mr. Brunson recommends for each. Cotton FLEA HOPPER?Plow up Corn stalks and harrow thoroughly with spike-tooth harrow to. expose to the winter weather the immature stages of the insect in the base of the stalks. CORN STALK UpREIt? Plow up corn stalks and harrow thoroughly with spike-tooth harrow to expose to the winter weather the immature stages of the insect in the buse of the stalks. CORN EAR WORM?Plow corf ' and cotton lund that was heavily in fested with insects past season t? break up and expose cases and 1m mature stupes of the pest. C ORN BILL BUG?Plow up corn land and harrow with * spike-tooth harrow to expose insect in the base of the stalks. CUT WORMS?Plow areas heavily infested last season to break pupal cases and to expose immature stages. Many adult insects such as th Mexican bean beetle of the southern corn root worm, the boll weevil, am', the corn bill bug may be killed by destroying all weeds about the farm and by cleaning out and burning th>; fence-rows. Farmers, as business men let's Ripply all of the business principles and scientific farming methods we possibly can to our farm operations. Let's put farming on it's feet in Kershaw county. Let's build up our soils for ourselves and posterity. Let's make bigger and more profitable crops by keeping down the losses caused by insects. If you are interested in controlling weevils in your corn or other stored grain, please advise your County Agent. If you do not plan to poison boll weevils next year do not plant any cotton. It is not fair to your neighbor to not poison. Clemson College "hasr found without question thatwU pays to poison if it's done correctly. I advise that you follow closely Clemson College's directions. ? Henry 1). Green, ^County Agent.

Corn Production. ^ Care for Quality Chicks Clemson College, Dec. 21.?Occasionally we find poultrymen who buy excellent chicks and neglect them during the growing season, says P. H. Goodling, extension poultryman, who declares that it is poor economy to pay a high price for. high-grade chicks and then not give them good care during the brooding period. Eggs that are uniform, have good size and shape and which were produced by selected birds produce the best chicks. If the chicks are not given a good ration and comfortable surroundings in which to grow they will not develop into profitable birds, explains Mr. Gooding. A brooder house 10 by 12 feet and a reliable coal brooder stove will eliminate much of the worry connected with chick raising, and if an allmash ration is used the feeding will be greatly simplified. Get good chicks and treAt them right. Mrs. Hood Bass, of Lydia, is dead ?nd her daughter Eddyann,^is in the lospiUl at Florence seriously injursd as a result of an automobile colision.

Hack in IK80 when Albert. Strelow built a power plant in Detroit, a man who gave his name us Henry Ford cm me to work (or the company. Strelow lost track of Ford until 1903. Strelow had a machine shop of hi* own and 100 men working for him. He was worth $100,000, had a "mansion" of 16 rooms for a home and a country residence on the lake front. He had done some work for Alexan-1 dor Malcolmson, wealthy coal dealer for whom James Couzens, now U. S, Senator, was then working as a clerk. Malcolmson bad decided to bsek Ford who had just left the old Cadillac company and wanted to build a car of his own. Malcolmson asked Strelow to buill ihem a factory. Strewlow refused unless Malcolmson agreed to underwrite the whole cost as Strelow looked upon Ford as a failure. The factory was finished in June, 1903. Malcolmson and Ford divided 51 per cent, of tho stock between them and offered the rest to their relatives and friends, The relatives and fyiends were hes 1 itttnt. Fvrd had built one of(.his cara so ( took, the group around town for a demonstration ride, C/onviwed it was practical several of them invested in the stock. Strelow put in $5,000. The two Dodge Brothers, John and Horace, bought $2,600 worth each. James Couzens took a larger amount but ha 1 to pay for most of it in notes. At the end of the first year the stock paid 100 per cent., the second year 300 per cent and everybody was happy until the old question, on widen many u new company has been wrecked, bobbed up. Couzens wanted to turn at least part of the dividends back into the business. Malcolmson and others wanted the dividends paid to stockholders. The quarrel broke up j the company. Ford and Oouzens started anothcfactory in 1906, Ford buying out Malcolmson for $175,000. Strelow said Malcolmson hud put in only $1,500 to begin with. Strelow and others, siding with Malcolmson in, whose judgment they hud greater faith, also ! sold out to the new firm. Strelow's in- ! vestment of $5,000 brought him $15,-! 000 in three years which he put into j his own business and was satisfied. ! But strange are the ways of fate, j HBB? . ? I ! ' I "i ,? Today Strelow is a poor man, living in a cottago in Detroit. Ill luck took ..... his fortune. He is 7d, bent with rheumatism and unable to work.

Sitting on the front porch of hia , modest home he can only contemplate the day of his opportunity?when, if he hud only held on his name might l>e i;iter'nationally known Wke that of Ford, Couzens, and the Dodge "boya."
