Billboard of Character
The automobile 1 multiplies the
characteristic* of its driver. If he
hax the tendency to be impatient, the
automobile enable* him to multiply
thin impatience from the speed ot
four miles an hour that he could
v make on foot to speed* of forty miles
or n>ore an hour.
If he's inclined to be inconsiderate
of the rights of others, the automobile
enable* him to force them .off
' the road, instead of merely thrusting
them aside, as he might on foot.
If he is inclined to be inattentive
| at times; to let his mind stray from
what he happens to be doing at the
moment, his autonx>V?ile continues to
. carry him at the rata of rosny feet
per second in the direction in which
he was headed when he last looked
where he was going?which may now
be directly toward a telegrapfo pole,
ditdi or other car.
If he happens to be a bit selfish,
a bit of a hog, his automobile converts
him into a sixty horsepower,
ton-and-a-half - hog?and that's a
? large and dangerous pi#** f
On ^he other hand, if#w's'*lin allarbund
decent sort of fellow, his automobile
enables him to intensify, his
good . qualities, thus helping instead
of harming his fellow men. For example,
he can slow down his car,
forcing the impatient and inconsiderate
driver behind him to slow down
4 also, while the mother with her
babies crosses the street.
Tf ydu enlarge a negative which
has a scar or scratch on it, that
scar or scratch stands out very
prominently on the enlargement. And
the same is true with a man. He
rpay be impatient, inconsiderate, or
a bit of a hog, but as long as he
remains on his two feet, these characteristics
are not dangerous or evident.
But give him power to multiply
them many fold, and they stand
out like that scar on the enlargement.
If the automobile driver would real
ize that his car magnifies his impatience,
discourtesy or selfishness to
such an extent as to make^ its operation
a billboard of his character,
perhaps he might take blore pains
to curb these objectionable and dangerous
traits.?Travelers Insu+ance

Hot Weather Rules For Comfort
Washington, May 31.?Four "do's"
and a "don't" were laid down today,
by the public health service as hot
weather rules for keeping comfortable.
They we16:
Eat less, with plenty of fresh fruit
and vegetables and less meat and
'ried foods >>n the menu.
Wear clothing light in both texture
anil, color. .
Sleep regularly.
Exercise but avoid strenuous exertion.
L>on't try to acquire a coat of tan
in one day.
On the point -of food, the service
recommended ice cream highly , and
nlon't , r\f ruilL- n nil frtlit
juices, \virh six to eight glasses of
cool water daily. A special warning
was -issued for picknicking city
dwellers against tempting looking
springs in which deadly gertfas might
lurk. , ,
House Fly Con^rofc ( .
The eggs arv laid in masses in
fermenting vegetable matter, usually
fr?-sh h?>r*e manure. They hatch in
about twenty-four hours and the larvae
feed and grow in the material
in which the eggs are laid. Pupation
usually takes place around the
edces of the manure pile; sometimes
in the adjacent -oil. length of the
life cycle in mi-Nummer i> about 101

ASSESSMENTS NOW DUE

South Carolina is an xcalkat

local capital doea not find the field
inviting or is too timid to adventure
in it, efforts should at leijat be made
to interest outside canning interests
in the possibilities of this territory.
It is the kind^of industry that is
not merely valuable for the sake of
its own payrolls, but thart provides
a profitable and desirable outlet for
the produce of the region and is thus
duubly desirable.--Charleston Post,
Jiuaineaa Outlook
Pig business is again predicting
the near advent of good times, but
we have heard the cry ?o many
times during the past two or three
years that we may be excused
receiving the messages of hope an4.
good cheer, with any degree of enthusiasm.
Still, let it be said that
much of the recent depression is born
of mental, rather than physical condlWtos,
'and is brought into power
by moral degeneration. The instability,
of business is largely the result
of rascality, dishonesty. And, with
all that, there are many who are
filled with fear. And fear it the

Pensions
? iMost of our local war heroes are
now drawing pensions?the $12 a
month generally allowed as a pacifier?and
the few who aren't getting
anything are doing their best
to think up some disability that will
get them a little slice of the easy.?

The Political Circus
As usual at this stage of the game
there has been considerable to say
in the papers of the state about the
advisability of doing away with the
county-to-county campaign, and in-*
stead leaving each candidate free to
conduct his individual campaign as
he may desire. - This, in our judgment,
is a much better plan, and
wouh. put the campaigningx on a
much higher plane; but we don't
expect to see any change made. Apparently,
the politicians that control
the destinies of this one-party
state believe their interests are best
served by the present method, and
that is the how and the wherefore
of>the matter.?Chester -Reporter.
"Justice"
An eighteen-year-old negro was
electrocuted by the State of South
Carolina Tuesday. His crime deserved
the death penalty, if you believe
that any crime does, but how
much better off is society now, after
this half human, half gorilla has
' paid the penalty ?" And in the jail*
and on the streets under bail are
nuinlcrci who have committed much
I more heinous crimes than was com|
mined by this half-witted negro,
j and they' drill not be electrocuted
I either.?G&er Tribune.

Cotton Prices
The financial wise-acres are saying
that they can see a "possible"
advance in cotton prices. We guess
that these gentlemen have on some
of those "far-seeing" . glasses that

will take our advice he will not
put too much dependence on these
financial wiaards, but keep right on
planting a big crop of com and

Many Boll Weevils
Already Reported
Several farmers who have recently
examined their fields in this section
have reported the presence, of many
boll weevils already on tlfo young
cotton and I think we may be assured
that a large number qf'weevils
have survived the winter anfd will be
ready to puncture the firs^' squares
formed on the cotton, advises Henry
D. Green, the county agent.j v.
The lateness of $ie season gives
us an unusual opportunity.. .-to kill
most of th? old weevils before they,
have done any damage. iCotton is
ten days to two weeks later than
usual, the plants are small' and the
bulk of the weevils will probably be
out of winter quarters before any
squares are formed. '
A few drops of calcium arsenatemolasses
mixture put on when the
first squares are not larger than a
pea will kiN all weevils on the cotton
if the weather remains clear for
thirty-six hours. Two additional applications
at five to seven day inter.
vals will get most of the later emerging
weevils and insure protection until
late ip . the season?in fact no
further protection may be necessary.
Many farmers in this section have
discovered that heavy dusting with
calcium arsenate has so poisoned
their land that oats, peas and some
other crops will not grow and th^s
practice,, especially on our lighter
?niU. should be indulged in with extreme
caution if it is employed at
all.
Calcium arsenate and good black
strap molasses are very cheap this
year and while cotton is also ,very
cheap, I am confident that several
applications of, the molasses poison
will yield handsome returns, says Mr.
Green.
Merchants and bankers might well
cooperate with their farmer customers
to help secure the necessary poisoning
materials.
Baldhead Blessings
Next time will find a tax placed
on buldheads. Anyway, a man ought
to have to pay for the privilege of
going with a coo! head these days.?
