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

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. <

Says-May Make Hay
Of Plowed~-up Cotton
Clemson College, July 17.?Since
the cotton reduction campaign ha*
been successful and a large acreage
of cotton is'to be destroyed soon, U
seems wise to consider the possibilities
of using the cotton plants to be
destroyed as feed for livestock, says
Prof. J. 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.

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.
