TREA8URE8 OF KING TUT
Estimated to Have a Value of $40,000,000?
Golden and Gem Treasures
The treasures of Tutankhamen's
tomb, discovered In 1922, have been
estimated at $40,000,000. One chamber
wan literally crammed with'golden
treasures and gems which cannot
be completely listed here, but among
them were three gilt statues with exquisite
carvings, and heads of a
python, panther and lion. These
statues supported beds, also beautifully
carved and glided, upon which were
innumerable boxes of the finest workmanship,
one contained royal robes
embroidered with precious stones and
also golden sundals.
The throne of the king, a gilt chain
enenjsted with precious stones, two
life-sized statues of the king of gilt
holding a mace of gold, four chariots
rich with gold ornaments, and semiprecious
stones, were among the first
treasures removed.
The cofTin itself is of untold value,
being of solid gold and remarkable
workmanship. The exterior is covered
with intricate carvings and the mummy
contained in it is adorned with a
golden mask. Amulets, pectorals,
bracelets, finger rings, a gold dagger,
golden sandals, etc., were revealed.
The innermost recess of the tomb of
1 utankhainen was filled with emblems
of the underworld, boats, chariots,
etc. The king's decorations and
jewelry, his toilet articles and slippers.
an ostrich plume fan in perfect
condition were among the most interesting
of the discoveries. More than.
30 statuettes were found.
Good Farming Hints
iFor July Attention
( lemson, July l.?Bolter farming
! suggestions for July by extension
specialists show no let-up for the good
farmer.
Agronomy When field work slacks
up, haul in grain straw, leaves, swamp
grass and other litter for the compost
heap. Sow peas, soybeans, or
velvet beans now and they will make
growth to turn under for soil building.
If old corn is not so good, it is not
too late to plant more.
Horticulture?Remove all broken
diseased limbs from fruit trees Immediately
after harvesting. Pull sweet
corn shortly before meal time; it
loses its sugar rapidly. Place fruits
and vegetables in the shade at once
after harvesting, to hold their quality.
For second-crop Irish potatoes use
preferably Lookout Mountain.
Insects and Diseases?Control tomato
insects and diseases with Bordeaux
lead arsenate spray. Remove and burn
corn plants infected with smut. Examine
banded apple trees every 10
days and destroy codling moth larvae.
Dust cotton with calcium arsenate if
boll weevil infestation reaches 10 per
cent. Tranfer and requeen bees. ..Control
Mexican bean beetle with magnesium
arsenate or non-arsenicals. In
screw worm territory treat wounds
with pine tar and kill maggots with
' vCju?Ol,
Agricultural Engineering?H a v e
trench silo ready when silage is ripe.
Repair and construct needed farm
buildings. Plan to install water system
and other farm conveniences.
Continue the two-horse cultivator, setting
sweeps for shallow cultivation,
investigate possibilities of small
streams for irrigating gardens and
truck. Recondition dusting machine
for poisoning bollrweevils.
Narrow Escape
Clover Hay?Say, dad. we all had a
narrow escape from being eaten alive
last summer, I tell you.
Timothy Hay?How so, daughter?
Clover?I've Just been to the carnival
and they had a wild cannibal Igorotte
native there on exhibition. And,
would you believe It, it was the very
same fellow that helped us harvest
our oorn last fall. My, but we were
lucky.

Feed Hogs To Catch
Higher Fall Market
Florence, Juno 24.?With hog prices
already at 10 cents on the larger
markets and with a short spring pig
crop, farmers who feed hogs well for
the full market will undoubtedly profit
thereby, thinks A L. DuHant, extension
livestock specialist. Spring
pigs put on feed now should reach
desired market weight, of around 200
pounds, he advises, about September!
1 when hog prices are usually high-!
est.
"The number of hogs on futons
January 1, 1935, according to government
figures', Is the lowest In 50
years," Mr. DuKaut explains. "The
five-year average of fall pigs Is around ,
28 million. Last fall pigs were about'
15 million. Because or the scarcity,
and high price of corn many of these'
pigs have gone to market at a light
weight. Government figures show
that the average spring crop for the
past five years has been around 50
million pigs. The average number
of brood sows farrowing in the spring
lias been around nine million and the'
government estimate Tor the spring of
1935 was live million sow's. This re-',
dueed number of sows means thut ^
the spring pig crop Is sure to J)6
short."
In the light of these facts Mr. Du'Hunt
advises that after the home:
needs for* pork have been supplied,!
farmers should feedd out their pigs,
well for the fall market.- These pigs
should be put on full feed about the
lirst of July or as soon us feed Is
available. The prospect for corn looks .
good and new corn will probably be
much cheaper than old corn. Whore ]
corn is under fence the most convenient
and profitable method would be I
to hog it down. Fish meal should'
be fed to these hogs while on corn. |
This may be fed In self-feeders, and
the pigs will not require much fish |
meal if soybeans or other legume:
crops are grown In the corn. County j
farm agents are ready to advise and !
assist farmers in feeding problems.

Better Pastures For
Livestock Success
Clemson College, June 22 ?Oil the
average South Carolina farm there Is
not more than one permanent pasture,
and m many Instances not even one
pasture la available, and yet yur ell-.
mute here demands that if we are ]
going to .make the beat uae of our
llveatoek wo muat have u long graz-}
ing season, says Prof. L. V. Starkoy,
head of the Animal Husbandry Department
here.
"Ah a general rule, If a large pasture
is divided Into two pastures the
two i>u?(ureH will furnish more grating
than the one large pasture would
have furnished," the specialist asserts
"In other words, changing the
livestock from one pasture to another
gives the pasture u rest?it also gives
the livestock a fresh grazing area.
It' tluse two pastures are divided into]
four pastures they "will furnish still
more grazing and the livestock will
do better.
"Obviously, one of the chief reasons
for (Itls condition is the fact that!
the changing of animals from one pas-J
ture to another is an effective way
of controlling internal parasites, t
which aire practically always present :
in all classes of livestock in South :
Carolina. There are certain parasites ,
common to all classes of livestock |
and for this reason it is important j
thut the pictures have a rest period, .
wlien no livestock is grazed on tlietn. i
"If Beverul pastures are available:
for hogs it is possible to work out
a crop rotation to the advantage of
hog production as well as feed production.
"Fences are too few and far between
In South Carolina. More and
better fences should therefore be one
of the slogans for the state, for more
fences will be necessary before livestock
can be produced profitably In
large numbers.
"Frequently fencing material is
wasted by fencing in woodland and
other areas which have little carrying
capacity. An acre of really good pasture
may have adStp,uch carrying capacity
as 25 acres of some of the
so-called permanent pastures. By using
some of the better land for pasture.
less fence and much less food
will lie required to keep the livestock
in the desired condition."

Alum Is Cure
Fur Snake Bite
Mr. J. C, t"Callie") Hurmau, U. F.
1). 1. Suluda wants everybody to know
the value of ulun\ (or man and beast
when they are bitten by poisonous
snakes or insects.
Mr liurman is in his 84th year
He is well known in this section of
the state, and has hud wide experience
with all kinds of domestic animals.
He has been an extensive stock,
dealer, lie hus bought and sold mules
am! horses, cows, shetfp, goats und
dogs In Saluda, Kdgettold, Aiken, Lexingtott.
lUchland, Fairfield, Newberry
and perhaps other counties of the
state. In the latter decades of the
19th century ho drovo hundreds of
cattle on foot from his home to Columbia
i4.r> miles) to sell to Clareuco
t'orley, Tom and Scott l'ope, Hen and
tins Dent und other Columbia 'meat
dealers of the eighties and nineties. |
He has hud horses, mules, cows and
dogs bitten by our most poisonous'
snakes, and has never found a case j
where they did not get all .right when
alum was used. He has hud dogs
so bitten by "Highland moccasins"
that their oyes were swollen shut,
but In- gave them alum and they got
all right. Ho has had similar results
with milk cows being bitten on the
udder, or mules or horses being bitten.
He learned this remedy from a man
by the name of Lewie, who once
owned and operated the ferry on Sui
luda river, lat,or known as Amick's
ferry, near Macedoniu Lutheran
church. (The place of this ferry 1b
j now covered by the back waters of
Lake Murray). Mr. l^ewls found it
out when he was an overseer of
negroes on a rice farm near Charleston.
The negroes would carry alum
in their pockets ami If they were
bitten by a snake they would eat the
alum urnl go on about their work
unharmed. Mr. Harman has used it
over 40 years and has never known
It to fail to cure when properly used.
He said that he told I)r. Hardin, who
was once a practicing physician and
a druggist at Hutcsburg about it and
that lie also used It with good results.
I The proper dose for man is a teuI
spoonful of powdered alum taken internally;
for cowh and horses three
tahlespoonfuls; and for u dog one
tablcspoonful.
He says that lie lias found It equally
effective in curing "foundered horses.
The same dose being used.-?Newberry

If Corn Is Short
Use Oats For Hogs
Clout sou, June 29.- South Carolina
farmers this year are confronted with
i a shortage of corn und high prices of
I hogs, und would do well to make u
careful Inventory of the feed which
they have on hand und see whether
they have enough feed to curry lite
hogs to inurkctahle weight, aaya Frofeasor
L. V. Starkey, head of the Alflutul
llutihundry Department, ?
If there is u shortage of corn on
any farm Professor Starkey thinks
that the owner should carefully con*
shier other feeds which might be used
as a substitute for corn, one of these
feeds to he considered being oats.
"Oats ure worth about Uir&g-f$j|rthB
as much as corn pound for pound Mil
hog feeding." he states. "The oats
should be ground when fed to hogs.
It is generally recommended that oats
make up not more than 2f? iter cent
of the ration, hut even when oats are
the sole rut-ion the hogs still make
satisfactory gains. As an Illustration
; of this, at Cleinson three years ago
1 some gilts weighing 150 pounds worn
' placed on a ration of ground oats and
I '
i lish meal. Those gilts gained at the
I rale of l 12 pounds* per day. while
| th?-\ were on (his feed.
"The South lias a decided udvuut|
age when il comes to the growing of
oats, because auother crop may bo
grown following the outs. Farmers
should therefore make It a point to
grow as many oats as possible, and
under conditions like the present use
oats as a substitute for corn in the
hog ration. Outs are also the most satisfactory
grain for work stock."

CAME FISH
ABOUND Qn. tksL QaJwlinaA.
Few states can equal the Carolinas^in the variety or
abundance- of game and fish. Virtually every kind of
waterfowl frequents the thousands of miles of inland sounds
and lakes, with adjacent marshes and feeding grounds; there
are wild turkeys, and quail in the Piedmont, and deer, bear,
and other large game in the coastal and Western sections.
? -v
More than 1,000,000 acres in the Carolinas have been
set aside as gaqie refugees and are protected by the states
and individuals where game may multiply and spread into
adioininz territory,? ? < - -
Deep sea fishing offers in addition to many other fish, the much sought for tarpon,
Spanish mackerel and king fish. The sounds yield channel bass, bluefish, sheepshead, sea
trout and striped bass. The turbulent mountain streams are nationally known for trout
i ? ? ? ?.?
ana small moutn oass ana tne more slowly running rivers and
creeks in the Piedmont and eastern sections are among the
. best large mouth bass and sunfish grounds in the nation.
Numerous fish hatcheries are maintained and many millions
of fish are annually distributed in Carolina streams.
Hundreds of public and private hunting and fishing lodges
dot the Carolinas, many of them owned by residents of other
states who are nationally and internationally known, and
j summer and winter sportsmen are assured well filled game
bags arid creels.
