"" * Santa Will Drop Gifts for Sir its i, .. Now York, Dec. 22.?-Going down present-day furnace chimneys to visit the children will 'be nothing compared to the modein feat* Old St. Nick is planning to perform this Christmas when he 'brings presents of food to starving birds, according to advance notices received by Officials of the American Game Protective Association. Por the first time in his life Santa will distribute food from the skies and squeeze down the queerest chimneys ever seen in woods or field. After official investigations in several northern states recently, revealed that it is slow starvation, and not cold weather, which kills song and game birds in winter nowadays, several states have redoubled their 'efforts to feed wild life. In doing so they have adopted unusual methods. In Missouri the aid of rural mail carriers in scattering grain for the birds has now extended to aviators, ami airplanes on their flights above likely spots will drop paper bags of food and loaves of stale Iwead, the association officials have learned. The Wisconsin'Conservation Commission has installed many se!ffeeding hoppers that form veritable "Santa Claus chimneys". Kach hopI>er is filled with 200 |>ounds of threshed grain which pours into long troughs as fast as the birds empty thorn. The hoppers are covered by shelters constructed of poles, corn- ' stalks and bin kjwheut bundles. "Other kinds of *bi-d cafeteries' are equall; effective-and will be usmj in many ates to k<s*|) birds from starv I mg li i .lis year wlum natural food ( crops ' e spar.se as a result of droop , the officials said. ... , I j r THE LAXATIVE IN I YOUR HOME A | DOCTOR'S A[PR^/^J - 1 Some things people do to help tSb < Rowels whenever **y bad breath, 1 feverishness, biliousness, or a lack of ( appetite warn of constipation, really weaken these organs.

Orangeburg Hogn Bring in $50,000 Omngeburg county farmers, we | see in the public print#, have realized! lUty thousand dollars this year from the saje of hogs raised in Qraugeburg county. While this sum is small jompared with what Orangeburg was accustomed to realize from its cotton in the heyday of that crop, it is no small and unpromising beginning for it is believed is going to develop into * a yvorthwhile and going industry. Many a large and successful industry has started in a small up stairs room or two, or in a tiny shop on a back street, and similarly with all ottier great economic movements, whether agricultural or otherwise. Orangeburg has made an auspicious start in a direction that promises farm independence in a ferw more years.? Chester Reporter.
