(Adv.) ? ?, ' Our Neglected Assets _ (By Harry Hampton) Tho i>uty, of Preservation It is man's God-given privilege and power to use for "moat" tho "fowls of the air, the fish of tho sea, the cattle and all creeping things upon the earth," over which he was given dominion according to the story of the Creation in the first chapter of Genesis. . * In the same place it is written, 'And God blessed them, (the animals, birds and fishes) saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fi\\ the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth." \ - ; < It does not take priest .or theologian to interpret these simple words as meaning that the creatures of the garth were meant to remain foTever and multiply, for the permanent benefit of man, and that man \vas entitled t<> use them as such, but ulso permit them still ^"multiply." It is clearly, man's privilege to use these creatures, but it is equally clearly his God-given duty to preserve* a part of these resources for the use of the next generation. If any generation fails so to preserve any given species from destruction, that generation is failing in its duty, defying the laws of God and man, and cheating tho next generation out of its inheritance. It is the fulfilment of this law of preservation of wild species which ^ modern men know by the name- of Conservation." The Conservationist believes that we are entitled to a part of the proceeds of the earth in the way of food, flesh, fowl, fish and mineral resources, but that it is our place , to see that a supply is left to produce' a harvest for those who come after us. The ancient laws of Moses included this plan. It is set forth, "If ye find a bird's nest before thee, take the young, but see that the dam go free, the apparent theory 'being that so long a * there are old birds to lay eggs, the species will be preserved. Use a part, save a part, the principle of Conservation. In order that our remaining wild life might be ' preserved in South Carolina, it is now our duty, not only to preserve but to see that the present inadequate supply is replenished as much as possible, and its present reduced- ranges increased, with their former ranges as the ultimate goal. Man has destroyed these God-given resources and man must restore them. "'The agricultural department report indicates the smallest wheat crop in recent years, the prospect indicating a yield of but 496,681,000 bushels of wheat. This is the ' smallest yield since 1893. The probable yield of other grain crops was placed at 2,384,032,000. President .Roosevelt has promulgated American ratification of the treaty for the regulation of international traffic in narcotic drugs. The pact, negotiated at Geneva two years ago, has been signed by 39 nations. The United States senate approved the pact with even more stringent restrictions than are contained in the original treaty and it is expected that tne pact will go far towards restricting *he drug traffic. 1 J-.hn C.

We Deliver ! 1 -r v__* ' ? - '?.-V - Negro Woman Killed' When Shotgun Fired ***?/ After being shot in the abdomen with a No. 12 gauge shot gun Alberta Gaymon, a negro woman who lived near Kershaw died at a Camden hospital about twenty hours after the entire load of the gun entered her body. She was shot following an argument with her husband and testimony brought out at a coroner's in,quest held by Coroner Van Ueglor indicated that the shooting was accidental and that the gun discharged after5 she had* thrown the weapon at her husband. A coroner's jury was summoned on Wednesday morning and they decided that she came to her death by a shpt gun wound which was discharged in an accidental manner. It seems that on Monday evening Alberta Gaymon started to whip one of her children when the husband, i Charlie Gaymon intervened. The wife then turned her wrath upon her husband and she reached for the shot gun. While husband and wife were scuffling over the shot g'un the_wife was also busy with a razor and she cut her husband in several different places. The wife was the larger and stronger of the two and she succeeded in getting the shot gun. In 'the meantime Charlie Gaymon had run outside tho house and sought aid in dressing his wounds. 'He entered the house again and it is then that it is alleged that the shot gun was thrown at him. The barrel was pointing towards the woman who threw the gun and the trigger catching on something evidently caused it to discharge with tfre shot entering her abdomen. Tho Gaymons live about a mile west of Kershaw in Lancaster county. Deceased was about 40> years of age and is survived by her husband and four children. There were but two witnesses who testified at tho inquest, the husband and another negro named Tillman James. Both told much the same story. On the floor of tho porch at this home was seen the mark the . gun where it scraped the boards after she had thrown the weapon. ' Both Gaymon and his wife were what are called yellow negroes as mOltliter were full blooded members bf the colored race.?Lancaster News. Stevenson Will Sit In With Cabinet | .Washington, July 12.?Having demonstrated his ' ability to manage j successfully the affairs of the home j loan bank board and working ten j hours a day or more to get the new home owner's loan corporation to functioning, former Congressman W. F. Stevenson, now chairman of -the, home bank boajb, hafa' been madc^ a j member of President Roosevelt s , "super recovery council,", organized to push rehabilitation. Chosen as one of his national re-. habitation" experts, Stevenson was ; named by the president as one of its | members. This body, which will be j composed of Stevenson and other ad-, ministration loaders, will sit in with the cabinet at its meetings each Tuesday at the White House. This is the first time in the history of the country, so far as recalled here today, that a South Carolinian, other thnn a member of the cabinet has sat with this body in its deliberation at the White House, thus in effect, giving South -Carolina two of the country's national advisers at these meetings, the other being Daniel C. Roper, secretary of commerce,- in his own right. Miss Ida Hill, of Blacksburg, is the young woman whfc was found dead on the Salisbury road several weeks ago, victim of a hit and run driver, it has just been determined, after much investigation. The woman's body was badly mutilated and j her identity was not established un- j til her fingerprints were sent to, Washington, police said. A check | there revealed she had been arrested in Charlotte a year ago. j Little rain has fallen in the valleys of the Yellow and Yangtze rivers of China since 1928, and the entire cen-^ tral region of China has been in the $rip of a terrible famine with thousands dying from starvation. Just at present the river valleys are being , threatened with, floods which are almost as destructive of human life as , ire the famines. < Hugh S.

P. La Master, chief of the dairy department, who suggests making hay out of the cotton plants to be plowed up. v Since there has never been an occasion before when cotton was available as it is under our present circumstances, no experimental feeding Urals .lAiv? been reported for hay made from the cotton plant. However, Prof. l^aMaster states, feed analyses have been reported on the mature cotton plants from samples taken in early October. The analysis of the plant at this stage of matuiity shows it to bo almost identical with cowpea hay when cut at a ripe stage. Although the stage at whfch the cotton will be cut now would likely show a very different composition from that which would exist in Octofoer.^it is reasonable to expect that it would compare favorably with cowpeas when cut in bloom and early pod stage. By cutting the cotton plants and curing them for hay in bhe similar J manner to which cowpea hay is made the farmer would bo able to clear the land of cottqn stalks and at the same time have this opportunity to produco considerable hay of good feed value as a by-product of the cotton acreage reduction program. Tho yields of hay per acre will, of course, vary with the age, the variety of seed used, the quality of lar.d, the fertilizer treatment and the rainfall for a given section of the state. It is reasonable to expect, however that from 500 to 2,000 pounds of hay may 1 bo made per acre. Although there is little or no scientific data on which to make recommendations for feeding I cotton plant hay, a few farmers in j 4ftjrUth Carolina have reported using it with very satisfactory resblts. The Chemistry Department v of CI em son College is analyzing samples of cotton plants and tho analyses should be available within a week. General News Notes The bureau of economics of the department of agriculture, reports that the wages of farm help has been boosted 7 per cent in the last three months. The telephone bill of Assistant Secretary of State Raymond Moley was $1,300 for the week he attended the economic conference in London. James G. Dern, son of the secretary of war, is working as a freight* clerk ,on the steamship Ancon, now at Colon, Canal Zone. Bastile Day, France's "Fourth of July," was celebrated Friday with a demonstration of its military and air force strength. The farm administration's campaign to reduce the acreage of tobacco, so as to cut the year's production by 50 per cent was stated Monday. The Carnegie Steel company of Pittsburgh, has raised the pay of its 25,000 to 30,000 employes by 15 per cent. Belated telegrams from northeastem Mexico tell of the killing of 25 persons by a hurricane which hit that section week 'before last. * At its annual convention held in Chicago last week, the Rainbow, 42nd Division, elected Wilbur M. Brucker, former governor of Michigan, as its president. The Corrigan McKinney Steel company of Cleveland, Ohio, has announced an increase of wages of 15 per cent to its 3,000 employes on a 40-hour week basis. The Brown Shoe company of St. Lodis, Mo., has announced a second wage increase of 5 per cent to its 10,000 employes scattered over several states. Cotton mills of New England, employing more than 120,000 operatives, began work Monday morning under the new code of the national recovery act. The Great Lake Steel corporation with headquarters in Detroit, has announced a 15 per cent wage increase affecting 4,000 employes, thus adding $1,000,000 to its annual payroll. Money in circulation at the end of June totaled $5,720,740,432 or $45.56 per capita, a slight decrease under May. About 200 relief workers at Greensboro, N. C., went on a strike Monday. They have been working on i city-county recreation park and reviving $1 per day. They demand a 10-hour week and $12 minimum pay. Japan is making such an aggressive war on India for the business of that province of Great Britain, that she is arousing the ire of British manufacturers of all sorts of cotton goods. India is selling socks at 3 cents a pair, shirts for 17 cents, pants foT 10 cents and other things proportionately low, and far under prices that can be met by England's factories because of the low wage scalee >f Japan, 10 cents per day for mill workers, and also because of a depreciated currency. ,'WO " v ?*? ...i s ~ .
