This is especially interesting to farmers of Kershaw county since they have to be out in all sorts of weather. The following is taken from a report by the United States' Department of Agriculture which states that the ordinary oils and greases such as neat's foot oil, castor oil, tallow an J wool grease will not make shoes waterproof, although they will help. Several formulas are given which, while not giving perfect protection from water such as is furnished by rubber boots or over shoes will provent the leather from water penetration v under ordinary circumstances. These preparations ' are as follows: Formula NoJ 1.?Neutral wool grease, 8V ounces; dark vaseline, 4 ounces; paraffine wa*, 4 ounces. Formula No. 2.?Vaseline, 12 ounces; beeswax, 2 ounces. Formula No. 3.?Vaseline, 8 ounces; paraffine wax, 4 ounces; wool grease, 4 ounces; crude turpentine guui, 2 ounces. formula No. 4.?Tallow, 12 ounces; cod oil, 4 ^unces. A The following directions for application are given: Mix together ingredients and mix thoroughly. Apply the warm but not hot mixture to all outside parts of the shoes. For summer wear, apply only as much as the leather will take up without leaving a greasy surface. If for winter wear, an excess will do no harm. Grease thoroughly the welt and the edge of the sole. {Saturate the sole with the water-proofing mixture. This can be done conveniently by setting the shoes in a shallow pan in which is enough of the melted tallow to cover the entire sole. Rubber heels should not be put into the grease, as it softens them. To waterproof the soles of shoes with rubber heels, use a pie pan and set the shoes astraddle the rim of the pan with the heels outside. Waterproofed 'shoesandbootskeep in the perspiration to a large extent. They are, however, less objectionable than rubber footwear in this respect, says Henry D. Green, the county agent. Snipes To Die in Chair. William C. Snipes will die in the electric chair in Pennsylvania on August 26 according to information reaching this city from that state. A motion for a new trial was recently denied the condemned man and after the period for filing an appeal with the supreme court had lapsed Governor Plnchot set the dale for the oxe cution as August 26. - Snipes was tried and convicted at Doylestown, Pa., in May for the killing of an inn-keeper at South- Langhorne, Pa., and the two boys who accompanied him* John Tagg of South "Lstighorne and Marion Ellis of this city were both sentenced to serve life Up to the time he was convicted William Snipes wrote to parties in this city but since that time he has written only to his sister in Florida. ?Lancaster News. , M.

Prof| P' McMa.ter, chief of the dairy division, "an impression probably attained through feeding nothing but oats to cows in milk. Oats are not high enough in protein content to make a balanced ration alone (being 'n k*,is respect about the same as corn, barley and wheat) but when properly balanced one of the very feeds for the milk cow." A standard ration recommended by the South Carolina Experiment Station for farm dairy herds is: 100 pounds corn-and-cob meal, or ground she led corn, or corn meal, or ground barley, or ground wheat; 100 pounds ground oats; 100 pounds ground eelvet beans in the pod, or wheat bran; 100 pounds cottonseed meal; 4 pounds salt. With an abundant oats crop selling ,,t a low price, Mr. LaMaster thinks this ration could be changed to take 200 pounds of ground oats, omitting the velvet beans or wheat bran. These rations are suitable for milking cows and service bulls, but growing heifers over six months old and up to within 10 days of calving time, could be fed a mixture composed of: 300 pounds ground oats, or shelled unground oats; 100 pounds cottonseed meal; 4 pounds salt. Calves under six months old still on milk, may be fed satisfactorily shelled oats as their only grain ration. The reason for specifying grinding oats for cows and not for calves and heifers is that when grown milk cows are fed unground oats, 12.1 per cent passes through the alimentary tract without being digested, while (this loss is only 5.5 per cent with heifers, and three per cent with calves. This difference, Prof. LaMaster explains, is because the cows getting a heavy ration fail to chew a large per cent of their' whole grain. Snake Swallows Nest Eggs. "Judge" Bradham, well known cit izen of Pinewood, tells this one .'this week in a highly diverting manner to some of his neighbors and friends. Early in the week , he says he noticed one of his setting hens acting in a very peculiar manner and upon investigation he found a big chicken snake in the hen's nest. He at first took -it for a rattler, he said, decided that a gun was the best weapon to us? in handling the .situation, but was somewhat leery about firing his gun, --due to recent happenings in the town. However, he used a rifle with deadly effect. Next day he noticed the snake and saw a number of lumps, and decided to investigate further, so he opened up the five-foot, nine-inch monster. Inside, securely hidden away, were some half dozen China nest eggs which the snake had swallowed and had been unable to digest. Jtfr. Bradham says he had been missing his eggs, but then had no idea who was the thief.?Sumter Herald. Eight Russian officers were killed last week in an airplane accident hear ^Ibino^ Russia.

It is interesting to note in , this connection that 34 per ceht of the monej? "borrowed was used for tTVfflg' wtpenses. ~y : '"x ~ r The average loan ran around $300, and the average rate of interest was 1j6.'5 per cent. Even interest on c$sh loans ranged from 6 per cent to 12 per cent. On merchant credit the rate ranged from 8 per ?gat to more than 100 per cent. One former paid 30 per cent interest on the purchase price of a mule. And on fertilizer the difference between cash and time prices ranged for individual borrowsrs from a rtat 10 per cent to a flat 48 per cent. Think of paying $14 interest on a ton of $30 fertilizer! In case of cash credit at the bank, the average rate of interest was 0 per cent, and the loss to the bankers pn an average was around 1 per cent. With merchant credit, the average i rate of interest to owners and ten- i ants alike .was a little over 26 per ' ;ent. i Five of the group of twelve merchants whose business was examined lost enough to reduce net interest tc D.8 per cent. The jther seven showed s net gain of O.Q per cent. None oi? these merchants made a difference between prices charged owners and tenants. And the observation is made .. that "When good and poor folks pay alike for the same volume of credit, the latter are subsidised at the expense of the former." It is interesting to note that'owners and tenants used abopt the same, amount , of credit. This is not the whole story, but it is enough of it to very clearly, point out the fact that time prices -just about take all possible profit out of farming even before a sped is planted. It is clear also that thp more responsible owner who avails himself of merchant credit is carrying the burden of the less responsible cropper, and in the end, unknowingly, pays many of his bills. m Yeggmen started Chester officers off on a busy search for clues and men which so far has been unsuccessful. They soaped and charged with nitroglycerine the door of a safe in a cotton 9)1 company plant and shot in the arm a negro night worker at the ice plant who refused to be held up by a masked robber.
