glue Laws Put Dancers In Jail Charleston, Nov. 11.?Twenty-five Charleston county men and Joiueu spent, last night In Jail cells pcause they violated an ancient "blue j,," which buna Sunday dancing. With three others, who later made pod, they were arrested at a roadie near here by county policemen, pd lodged in Jail to await a magisj,tes hearing today. County police said they had lnvok^ (he itueieut vintage blue law sev^1 times recently, but yesterday was ^ llrst time that a raid resulted in rtiole&ale arrests. The raid resulted in the largest lumber of arrests since former Guvnor John G. Richards made an involve "blue law" enforcement camplgn soon after taking office in 1926. The state statute, enacted in early livs and still on the books prohibits i long list of pastimes on Sunday landing "bear-baiting" and other fports of bygone days. The Richards drive was directed ailnly at golf and Sunday sales of pgolinc State constables swooped town on golfers at Camden, Aiken ud other resorts, and automobiles wiled or ran on "bootleg" gasoline. The state supreme court held in a test case, however, that golf and othir sports such as polo not specifically knned by the statute might be playjdyu Sunday and the campaign, htnjered by injunctions, soon slackened. Folic, iiere said that while the Sunuy dancers were arrested on charges ?f violating the Sabbath observance a*, the c harges might be changed to 'creating a disturbance." Sale Of Potatoes To Be Controlled The Potato Section of the AAA haw announced the sales allotment of 1 . 999,000 bushels of Irish potatoes for South Carolina during 1936. Expressad in production this should .mean an increase over the commercial production in South Carolina for 1935. However, it should ho remembered that this allotment must take care of all potato sules by growers in the state even though they sell on curb markets such us the Columbia market or direct to grocerymen or potato chip manufacturers. It will be necessary for the growers to present supporting evidence of represented sales; therefore, I would suggest that you have this materiul reudy when applications are ready to be accepted. On these applications must be shown the land history for the years 1932, 1933, 1934 and 1935 as follows: Acreage harvested; total production in bushels; total sales in bushels, and a barrel is figured as two and three-fourths bushels. In Case a potato grower is making application and does not have a farm history he must show his personal sales records for the year 1934 and 1935. All potatoes must be in closed packages and the Collector of Internal Revenue will issue regulations as to what constitutes a closed package. All growers who expect to sell potatoes must secure a sales allotment as there are no exemptions. Any grower selling five bushels or more will be required to secure tax stamps provided he does not have an allotment of tax exemption stamps, the stamps to be placed on the acreage by the grower. Tax stamps may be secured from 1'ost Offices. I he Potato Act states that any grower selling only five bushels or less In any one year shall not be required to decrease his sales. Application forms are being prepared but it is not likely that these forms will be ready before the first week in December.?W. C. McCarley, Couui ty Agent. Governor's War Costs $90 Day A new item of government expenditures?for upkeep of national guardsmen on active duty?has crept into the state expense sheet. It figured last year under Governor I. C. Blackwood and appears again this year, under Governor Olin Johnston. 'I he maintenance of two officers and 16 men on active duty here under the governors proclamation of a "state of insurrection" by the highway com-1 mission was tentatively estimated to cost $90 a day. Bills rendered Adjutant General James C. Dozier to date for expenses in connection with the presence of troops in the Pelzer strike aroa from July 16 through September 16 amounted to $28,600. A force varying from two companies to a section was on active service f?i' two months under the governor's proclamation of a state of Insurrection, nearest executive parallel to martial law, in the Anderson Mill village. Whenever troops moblized, for the highway coup are paid off. the total military bill for 1935 prctobly will amount above $30,000.?Newberry Herald and News.

A Jackson. "Our truckers can haul from 20 to 50 hogs at a load, which enables the feeders to market their hogs at any time; audi some few who own light trucks and trailers haul their own hogs," he states. "A total of 1,742 hogs weighing 302,744 pounds have been hauled through this office, These sales netted 161 growers $27,185.02." From M, M. McCord, Georgetown agent, conies the statement that 16 farmers contributed to a shipment of 1 two cars of deiVionstratlon-fed hogs' in October which netted $1,724.13. "With good prices now prevailing indications are that there will be a considerable Increase in spring shipments from this county," he states. "Our farmers are finding that finished hogs is a moans of selling home-grown corn at a good price when fed with fish meal to balance the ration." "Every hog in two cooperative shipments this month brought top prices, 10 cents net, and were shipped by farmers with whom 1 have worked in the past in hog feeding demonstrations. One farmer got $112 net for six hogs; another $187 for nine hogs." F. M. Rast, Clarendon agent, reports. "Hogs are moving to the Greenville market." says L. W.

I I A deputy in Horry county has been dismissed by the Sheriff of the county because he (the deputy) served a paper handed him by an attorney of the county to serve. In other words because in the ordinary course of business he served a legal paper, not unlike many ethers that he served from day to day in the course of his duties, this deputy was fired. If that is not coming perilously near autocracy, we'd like to know the reason why. This kind of thing is one of the jiatural fruits of trotting out the militia to do things by force and parade authority instead of waiting for tho more orderly processes of the Legislature and the courts.?Chester Heporter. Charles H. Holden, lawyer of Oklahoma City, threw Ills arm out of place in his violent gesticulations before a jury in. court there. His arm was pulled in place by some of his brother lawyers.

We heard a good one on the model T Ford the other day. It went something like this: A Packard drove up to a service station and the driver asked, "How far is it to Kansas City?" The answer was, "One hundred and twenty miles." "Put in twenty gallons of gas and six quarts of oil," he said When he left, a Buick drove up. "How far is it to Kansas City?" "A hundred and twenty miles." "Put iti ten gallons of gas and four quarts of oil." Then a model T drove up. "How far is it to Kansas City?" "A hundred and twenty miles." "Gimme a gallon of gas and a pint of oil, and hold the blame thing until I get in."? | Fx. To buy or sell, use a Chronicle Want Ad. The cost is small!
