Advises Farmers
Raise Work Stock
Clemson College, Feb., f?.?South
Carolina farmers would do well U
returh to the old-fashioned practice
of raising some mules and horses
says O. M. Clark, extension farm
management specialist, who states
that unless breeding of work stock
picks up materially or the mechanization
of agriculture goes much further
soon, a shortage of work stock
will be "upon us within the next few
years.
Considered from a long-time point
of view, the use of tractors and trucks
for farm work will probably increase
in importance, but for the immediate
future there will probably be some
decreases in their use, Mr. Clark believes.
"But even with a continued
increase in the mechanization of agriculture,
the outlook for horses and
mules is such that for those who are
in position to do so it would probably
be desirable economically to
make .plans for raising some colts,
There are maiiy farms in iSouth Carolina
on which colts could be raised
without great expense," he continues.
"If the prices of farm products
stay low as at present it will be difficult
for most farmers to buy their
replacements when their present
work animals are past their period
of usefulness, and if the prices of
farm products go up horse and mule
prices will be high. While horse and
mule prices have come down appreciably
since 1929, they have declined
only about half as much as has the
average price of all farm products.
If prices of farm products should
within the next few years go back to
the 1929 level, mule prices would
likely go much beyond the level of
that year."
Nothing Supplants Weekly Paper.
Delaware, Ohio.?"The country
newspaper has a field all its own
which none other can preempt. It is
the messenger from home," declared
Clarence Brown, former secretary of
state fer Ohio' and publisher of a
chain of Ohio weekly newspapers, in
an address up^n the weekly newspaper
made before a recent meeting of
the Press club at Ohio Wesleyan university.
"In the offices of the great and the
near-great, one always finds the
man's own home-town newspaper.
And it is invariably his. most carefully
r^ad publication no matter how
smallnhd Ifumble it may be.**
The weekly field requires a better
ounded sense *of news values' than
loes work on a large city publication,
3rown believes. While the cit$r paper
tffords some opportunity for specialzed
news, the country weekly, as this
)hio publisher views it, must appeal
o the group of interests which fts
eaders have in common.
"Too many publishers of weeklies
faget that they are editors also,"
S^*n pointed out in advocating a
irile editorial page. "The weekly edtor
should put into the editorial colimns
of his paper his thoughts on
he problems of the community, the
tate and the nation. This is the one
ure way to make vocal in government
the thoughts of the rural community."
Brown sees radio advertising aleady
on the wane becnuse it has
ailed to produce the results which
ts sponsors have led business men to
xpect.

Wide Channel Will
Save Many Breaks
?
? ?ry1-*
-Clemson College, Feb. 4.?"An often
overlooked cause of many terrace
breaks is the too narrow channel along
the terrace in which the water
is supposed to run," says J. T. McAlister,
extension agricultural engineer.
"Often this channel is no wider
that the width of an ordinary turn.
ing plow, and after one hard rain
the channel will be filled with soil
that has washed in it sufficient to
stop all flow along the channel and
thus cause a break in the terrace.
"Of course breaks in terraces occur
in low places that have not beeu
built up to sufficient height to check
\ the water, but narrow channels also
i cause many breaks. Thus a large a- 1
mount of labor is expended unnecessarily
each year in repairing breaks
and otherwise maintaining terraces
' on soils subject to erosion in South
Carolina."
1 The terrace itself, Mr. McAlister
> advises, should be much wider than ,
) it is ordinarily built, since a wide
, bank of earth will not break as soon
1 as a narrow one. Against a general
1 idea that when wide terraces aro
; built much land is lost from cultivation,
Mr, McAlister holds that the
. opposite is true, for with wide ter;
races it is possible to cultivate the
r entire terrace in broadcast crops if
too steep for row crops* and weeds
; and grass are thus eliminated from (
^ fields. Agricultural Engineering Cir- ,
> cular No. 4, which describes a meth- ;
> od of plowing that results not only
* in a wide terrace but in a wide
. water channel that greatly minimizes
I the danger of breaking, will be sent
. by Mr. McAlister to those requesting
l_ it. 1
Chain Gang Guard
Issues Statement!
I . 1
Greenville, Feb. 7.?<B. B. Southers,
whose discharge as captain of fhe 1
Greenville county chain gang guard
was announced yesterday, said in a ^
statement today that he whipped
prisoners "to maintain discipline" and ^
that J. Ed Means, county supervisor, ^
had released him because of "public I
opinion."
Southers and two guards, W. H. <
Finley and E. L. Drake, were dis- !
charged by Means with the simple 1
announcement that they were "no 1
longer in the employ of the county." (
Southers said he never whipped
David Kraft, 14-year-old Newark,
N. J., youth whose story of mistreat- 1
ment on the chain gang here led to 1
an investigation and that if the boy A
was ever whipped he "did not know 1
about it." *
He was "never cruel," Southers
said, but had to whip prisoners "to 1
maintain discipline." He said Means I
had told him that he "had to" re- I
leas? him and the two guards "be- a
cause of public opinion." 8
An investigation into the Kraft I
charges has been underway for sev- c
oraT weeks by Fred Newman, a mem- 0
ber of Governor Blackwood'? constab- a

Gates Hill Club Meets h
b
The Gates Hill home demonstra- a
tion club held its regular ' meeting t
February 3 with eighteen members t
present and three visitors present.
The first part, of the meeting was f
given to a business session in which g
building our club shack was discussed, t
Then the meeting was turned over h
to Miss Craig who, at our January fi
meeting, presented each one with the T
pamphlets (live-at-hom^j plan) from e
which much good was derived. At
our February meeting she gave us a
varied but very interesting demon- t)
stration, first the hot bed, and urged r<
all gardeners to prepare a hot bed tl
at once, then she talked on spring r<
gardens and their importance and ir
she also gave us some good advice on p
clothing, showing the tests for silks, hi
rayons, cotton and linen goods. Dur- cl
jng the social hour a shrubbery con- _
test was held which furnished good
information for all interested in
shrubbery. The club members went
home feeling it was surely good to
attend these club meetings.?Contributed.
Will J. Miller, of Kansas City, Mo.,
representing the Kansas Livestock,
association, told a senate committee,
that ho had not found a single farmer j
who favored the domestic nllotment
bill, all of them expressing the fear
that the proposed measure would put
the price of hogs up so high as to
make a large part of the production
unsalable.
A Richmond, Va., woman, destitute
and with four children, tucked the
four into bed a few night^fago, locked
the windows and doors and opened
the gas jets. A final look at the children
and she prepared for bed. She
loon was unconscious. Next morning
all awoke. The gas company had
1 hut off the gas because of failure
to pay the gas bill.

Pecan Borers Are j
Reported In State
' M
Clemson College, Feb. 4.?l)umage
to pecan trees by the larvae of the
oak or hickory coasid is unusually
widespread this season, according to
numerous inquiries received in recent
weeks from all parts of the state by
Alfred Lutken, extension entomologist,
who suggests carbon disulphide
as a control measure.
The work of the borer can be detected
by the small pellets of wood
at the base of the tree and under the
larger limbs. Careful examination of
the tree directly above these pellets
will reveal the holes through which
the castings are pushed out. The
holes are about the size of an ordinary
pencil and the inhabited tunnels
are closed with flaps of silk and
bits of wood.
The adult possid is a grayish moth
with a wing-spread of about one and
one-half inches. Eggs of the moth
are laid on the twigs during May and
June and the larvae tunnel out the
pith of the small branches. As the
larvae grow too large for the small
branches, they attack larger ones until
by fall they will be found in the
trunk or the main limbs. Iransformation
to pupae takes place in April
and the moths emerge a few weeks
later.
To control this insect, Mr. Lutkcn
says, lop^tc all the holes and into
each ope^inject about one teaspoonfuj,
of carbon disuljfhide by means of a
medicine dropper or small oil can.
Immediately plug the holes tightly
with putty or clay. Best results will
be obtained on warm days, but the
work should bo done before Apiil
when the transformation to pupae
takes place.
FARMER ON CASH BASIS
The Dillon Herald says it is good
advice to the Palmetto farmer to stop
borrowing money and go on a cash
basis?but it opines'that he is already
there by compulsion. That paper
says:
A writer |n the Southern Cultivator,
who asks "What is Wrong With
Agriculture?" answers his question
by telling the farmers they will have
to quit buying on credit. This is
food advice but it comes too late.
The farmer has quit buying on the
credit. Not only has the farmer quit
saying, "Charge it, please," but millions
of people in other professions
have had to abandon this easy plan
sf buying goods.
The installment plan of buying is
still in full swing, but the man who
Duys on this plan knows he must
neet the monthly payments or there
vill be trouble in the camp, and so
ie cuts corners and makes sacrifices
o meet the monthly bill.
The farmers are getting on a cash
msis faster than they got on a credit
>asis in the years following the flush
>ost-war days; Dillon is an average
igriculturpl county?perhaps a little
tbove the average?and very little
orrowed money went into the 1932
rops. The July statement of the
rnly bank in the county showed loans
,nd discounts of about $135,000, and
robably $80,000 of this went into 1
he crops. When Dillon had seven
ianks the loans and discounts at the
eginning vof the harvest season
mounted to around a million dollars,
wo-thirds of which was invested in
he crops.
It is not necessary to advise the '
armer to quit buying on credit and
et on a cash basis. Not only does 1
he farmer sell on a cash basis but
e buys with cash, and he will be the j
rst to recover from this depression,
"he farmer has set the world a fine
xample in this respect.

Negro's Body To Be
Exhibited In Public
I York, Feb. 8.?Plans for a public
display of the body of a young Negro
murderer, as a grim warning against
crime, were disclosed here today by
Solicitor W. (list Finley.
Finley said the body of Will Sanders,
10 year-old York county youth,
would be exhibited on the courthouse
"steps here after his execution March
3, in the state penitentiary for the
murder of Miss Zula Stephenson near
here a few weeks ago.^
The solicitor was given authority
by the board of county commissioners
to use a county truck for transportation
of the body.
"Many Negroes of this community
would never believe Sanders had been
put to death," Finley said, "unless
they saw his body."
The youth was tried last month,
lie admitted beating the elderly spinster
to death in her country home
after she had said something that
angered him.
General News Notes
&
The president of the big It. F. C.
corporation recommended to the senate
committee yesterday, that $160,000,01)0
more be appropriated for direct
relief of the unemployed and endorsed
the Wagner bill liberalizing
the law under which the K. F. C. administers
this relief. Ho testified
that the funds now available will last
until June, and another $150,000,000
would curry the relief work until in
next December. Ho said action by
congress, to be effective, should be
completed within six weeks. It the
committee and the congress accepts
his advice, it means relief work in
South Carolina and other states will
continue throughout this year. Hut
some senators most active in the direction
of direct relief for the unemployed,
are saying it must stop before
local care for the impoverished
is destroyed by the liberality of
Uncle Sam.
Mrs. Martha B. Burk, mother of
two children, was sued at Salt I>akc
City, Utah, by her husband for nonsupport
though the couple has not
lived together for 23 years. The
husband alleged that the wife would
not allow him to enter hgr home. The
court ruled that the"T>'usband should
have a key to the house and eat with
the family. She is employed as a
chambermaid and the husband has no
work.
Dr. Elbert D. Thomas, Democrat,
now senator from Utah, whose state
has an anti-nepotism law, will have
his daughter on the government payroll
as a secretary, the state law not
affecting the Federal job. The new
senator seems to have forgotten that
the venerable Senator Smoot was defeated
in his state on an anti-nepotism
campaign.
Fatal accidents in the United States
in 1932 showed a decrease from 97,451
to n total of 88,000, according to estimates
of the national safety council.
The non-fatal accidents totaled 8,500,000
in all fields during 1932. The
cost in wage losses, medical and insurance
expenses for both fatal, and
non-fatal accidents is estimated at
$2,000,000,000.
Clarence A. Miller, attorney for the
American iShort Line Railroad association,
testifying before a senate
subcommittee, declared that the proposed
five day week and six hour day
is unconstitutional and not within the
jurisdiction of congress. "This is a
police .power completely reserved to
:he states," he declared.
