Sunday’s papers stated that the plank in the Democratic platform de- noUneinp the Ku Klux Klan by name lost by the narrow mar pin of one vote. A correction made thv majority four votes. Edgar A. Brown, of Barnwell, made a plea for t^ie preservation o£- the party, as the result of which a Pennsylvania- Catholic, instructed iq vote for the anti-Klan measure, (harped his vote. Had the majority U t n just one vote, fts* first stated, Col. Brown could have claimed the crx-dit of preserving the Democratic party intact. As it was, however, he won a great victory. Rains, Blight and Weevils. County Agent Boylston says: “With the continuation of the heavy rains that have fallen in mo^i sections of the county for the past week, we will find that there will be an increase in the amount of damage <1( ne by weevils, blight arid anthrAc- nose. . . “The evident fa t is that there was a rather light infestation of weevils coming out this Spring; that is, in < -mpanson to what it was last year. Put with favorable seasons for thy hatching of the young weevil, one will find that very soon the damage from weevil will Ixcemc very «ori- eio; in fact, it u generally showing u; now.

All farmers interested in dieting cot- t n will call on Har ry B(>y]ston f< r as-istance in the proper application of poisons. "Anthraenose and gummy stem I iight are a great deal more damag ing during rainy seasons, because one large rain sometimes scatters the germs sufficiently to cause the crop to die. The application of spray or dust is largely a preventive. One should not wait until the disease is well developed before anything .is done.” Radio vs. the Criminal. , .

Mj 1 here by announce n for the office of S, P. ito ond Judic al < rieat', ur. and regulations of the TV Radio is now beginning to loom up as a real foe of the criminal. In many cities radio-equipped police depart ments, according to Mr. W. H. Dun- can, of the local Exide Service Sta tion, are ejther be ing considered or have already l>een established. In Detroit three big Lincoln touring eats have recently been equipped with radio , receiving sets, which will en able these high-powered and speedy ca v s to maintain constant ce.mmuni cation anywhere and at all times with police headquarters. It is planned eventually to have seven of these car- in service. . In Philadlephia plans are underway for the installation of similar .radio, (equipment, which will be used in con nection with the searchlight sVSitem inaugurated by the famous General Butler. Upon the speed with which the description of the criminal can be* placed in the hands of every police- man after the crime has been commit ted depends, largely, th? probability of capture. This has time and again Uen demonstrated when men and women without previous criminal ex- jx nonce and record have committed crimes and in spite of their lack of experience have actually managed to escape. Had the police been warned in time, the awkward efforts of these criminals would have quickly caused them to fall inUi tho police net. This also applies to the class "of criminals “known to the police”. primary ’he nom e! pie rr For Master. Barnwell, S. C., March 27, 1924.
