STATE HOUSE AND GROUNDS.
1/
Much to Interest the Visitor.?Soni<
of the Tilings to be Seen.
x Most States call tlieir administra
%
tive buildings the capitol, but Soutl
Carolina calls hers the State house. 1
is well named, it is the building thai
| concerns the whole State and all tin
Kl people in it. This is shown by tin
* constant numbers of visitors that arc
always going over the building
r./v/\n1/\ r\r\ m n frnm Oth.
tv ueuevcr tut; jjcu^ic uvu v.u
?r parts of the State they always gc
t over the State house, they feel thai
they are interested in it, and thej
want to see it. There was an exctir&
v r.'
t sion down from the upper part of the
s State a few days ago, and hundreds
r visited the building. One of the
\ men in the governor's office said he
spent most all day showing visitors
over the building, but he was glad t(
fe ^ do it; they were all interested.
, In the secretary of State's office
are many objects of interest, and i
great many too in the office of the
secretary of the historical commis
^ sion. The supreme court room is o;

The view from the librae
windows is fine. The senate chain
ber and the house of representative.'
are well worth visiting, but they an
closed most of the time, except whei
the legislature is in session. A place
k to be looked at is the outside wesi
J wall, just above the windows of the
governor's office. Here are yet to be
seen- marks where Sherman's shells
[ '''v ' *
hit when he fired on Columbia before
I he crossed the river and occupied the
j?i city in his famous march to the sea
;V Inside the downstairs hall of the
I State house are to be seen some 01
I the largest pieces of single stone ii
P: / fthe world, for many of the giant pillars
are all one piece of granite. In
[ deed, it is said that this State house
f. contains more monoliths of their size
I of any building. A monelith is 1
I . solid unbroken pillar or. monumfeni
iX vc of stone.
The State house grounds this yeai
I are especially beautiful. The greai
I square?it comprises four city blocks
| ?is well grassed with every here anc
% there beds of bright colored flowers
; ? On the grounds every here and then
are beds of bright colored flowers
| that show up well against the darl
^ green. There are dozens of ornamental
trees on the grounds, and be
sides there are many* more of th<
commoner varieties of trees. At dif
? V'. *iT~ '
: ferent points on the grounds are va
fo rious monuments, at one point is ai
y r historic grave; there is one larg<
cannon that came as a trophy fron
the war with Spain, and many small
| er guns, from the bygone days. The
% n grounds are pleasing; and severa
\ hours could well be speiTt on the
^ State house and grounds together.
:
/ The governor's office is in a waj
L^; the centre of the State, and the
events of that office are an index t<
r the times. Last fall the great en
was "diversify your crops." Up t<
how grain had been a negligible fac
tor in this State, and wheat almosi
y unthought of. Now, however, comes
v a letter to the governor asking tc
jy inform the writer what is a lawfu
R toll for grinding wheat. The answei
| ! is found in sections 2387 and 238*
of Vol. 1 of the code of 1912, whicl
LV- reads;
"238*7. No person shall tak<
I more toll for grinding wheat, rye, oi
Y; J any other grain into good meal o]
'i flour than one eighth part of anj
V Quantity under ten bushels, and fo]
K t ten bushels, or any quantity above
v at one time brought, one tenth par
only; and for all grain as aforesaic
J uetrvr?l
I cuoppea tor uuimu v, iccuiu&
- or for distilling, one sixteenth part.'
V "2388. * Any person or person:
taking more than hereinbefore di
f rected shall be subject to pay a fin<
- to an amount to ten times the valu<
of the toll so taken, to be recoverec
in most summary way before th(
nearest magistrate; one half to th<
prosecutor and the other half to th<
person aggreived."
t Those Stranded Tourists.
.( '
?<- . The record of the American tour
ists stranded in Europe last year anc
brought home through the help o
Uncle Sam is not flattering. Fron
, ' first to last they seem to have im
posed on uncie sam s goou uaiuic.
To begin with, they raised Cain be
cause the government didn't instant
ly dispatch a battle fleet to rounc
them up and .bring them home whei
they were caught in the war zon<
without cash. And then, when tin
T government opened its treasury anc
II paid their fare home, about half o
rV' ' *
" them accepted the money as a gift
in spite of an explicit understanding
that it was merely a loan.
Such, at least, is the logical gist o

^ partment. Of half a million dollar!

Livestock Suggestions for September.
9 It is not too early to begin getting
ready to properly care for the livestock
this winter. It is too late now
to grow feed for them except in so
1 far as winter grazing may be prot
vided. If winter grazing is expect1
ed, early seeding, by September 15,
3 is necessary.
3 The calves and colts that are be*
ing weaned may. if neglected, soon
get in such condition that they will
not only fail to make any growth
} during the winter, but extra atten^
tion may even be necessary later to
7 keep them alive until spring. The
calf or colt that receives a severe
5 check in its growth at weaning time
5 seldom makes so large or so good
J an animal as if it had been kept
J growing all the time.
The pastures are almost certain
) to become dry and the pasture plants
less succulent during the fall. In
5 this condition the pastures may be
1 all right for older animals, but they
' are unsuited to the needs of calves
and other young animals. If there
f is no oat or rye field for the weanlings
to graze on some good fresh
legume hay, and in any case, some
grain, should be provided. If it will
5 not pay to feed a calf or colt under
i a year old, so as to keep it growing,
1 then there is )io time that it will
* .pay to feed that animal. Two parts
^ each of corn and oats and one of cot5
tonseed meal, or three parts of corn
' to one part of cottonseed meal, by
5 weight, will make a good grain mix'
ture.
Properly managed, the fall litter
of pigs may be made as profitable, if
I not more so, than the spring litter.
The spring litter must be pustiea
1 along rapidly so as to be ready for
market or slaughter by the time they
are eight to ten months old in order
to avoid carrying them through the
3 winter; but the fall litter can be fed
J through their mothers on peanuts
and soy beans in the fall and then
carried on winter pasture and a litf
tie grain feed until spring. By spring
time they are at an age to get along
3 with a minimum of grain until the
cheaper feeds are available in the
* fall. By this plan they are not mar^
keted until a year to 14 months old,
9 but they have been produced more
1 cheaply. They have been fed most
grain when they were young and
could make the best use of it, and
' they were old enough when June
and July came to get along without
much grain. These are the most
1 difficult months to furnish grazing,
' and younger pigs must have more
1 grain or they are stunted.
We speak of our mild winters be|
ing favorable for livestock, but it
is questionable if the dampness and
' mud of our winters are not more
injurious to young animals than the
cold and snow of the North. We
a are convinced that the fact that
niore on nfton fin harilv
itaiYcs auu ou vw? ?
during the winter is due to damp
houses and muddy lots. It is often
observed that calves do better with,
out shelter than with it in our cli,
mate, and this is almost certain to
| be the case if the shelter is not dry
, and clean. We need not give any attention
to the warmth of our houses
> for pigs, calves and colts, but it is
y i
necessary that they be dry, light and
clean. An open shed well bedded is
sufficient, but it is better to let them
hunt a sheltered place in the open
fields than to confine them to a lot
belly-deep in mud, filth and slush.
It is early to be talking about the
winter care of livestock, but it is not
^ j too early to begin to plan and arI
mtiffo fnr thp winter. The success
*V* v*-w
, ful livestock producer is the * far,
sighted man who provides beforehand
for giving his animals the feed
and care they require. As "a stich
in time saves nine" and "an ounce
I of prevention is worth a pound ot
J cure," so is proper preparation for
? the care and feeding of livestock the
3 *
best insurance against disease and
" bad luck and the surest guarantee
against failure. The man who has
the best "luck" with livestock is the
man who knows most about them,
takes best care of them, and feeds
them best.
J The fairs offer a splendid oppor*
tunity to study livestock, but the one
1 who gets most benefit from a study
- of the animals at a fair is the one
who realizes that there is a vast dif
ference between thinking he knows
- all about the judging of animals and
1 actually knowing. Any owner or
1 judge will gladly show the strong
^ and weak points in an animal to the
- real inquirer after knowledge; every
1 beginner in the livestock business
f should attend at least one good live
, stock show this fall and make a care5
ful study of the kind of animals he
is most interested in. Few men
f make a success of any kind of live
stock production without being able
3 to- judge the grades of animals with
- a fair degree of accuracy.
) Cattle that must go long distances
for water or are made to wade
3 through mud to get it will not get
[' enough and will not do well. It pays
1 to hare the water easy to reach and
* in abundance. Regular hours of
- feeding without changes in the feed
- are of the utmost importance. Put
about one ounce of salt in the feed
Queer Phenomena.
Some mysterious and uncanny
things happened in Atlanta before
the lynching of Leo M.
Frank?things which pass the
bounds of ordinary comprehension
and-recall the ancient belief that
strange phychic influences are in the
air when tragedy is afoot. At least
two incidents, either enough to send
a cold shiver down the spine, are
vouched for by reputable men, and
bring to mind the pages of history
which tell that on the night of a certain
tragedy in Rome the lions of
the Capitoline hill roared with
strange fear and that shrieks which
came from nowhere were heard in
the darkened streets. About midnight,
or shortly afterward, on the
night when Frank was lynched, a
bull dog belonging to Adjutant Gen-|
eral J. Van Holt Nash, awakened the!
i
general at his country home by rush- j
ing to his bed and barking ^'olently.
The dog's hair stood up on cs back
from fright and excitement. Presently
two other dogs on the place began
to whine and sniff the air and
bark excitedly. Nothing could be
found to account for the strange actions
of the animals, but they could
not be made to hush. It was nearly
two hours afterward that the telephone
rang violently and the first
intimation of what had happened was
received by the adjutant general.
The other incident concerns a well
known Atlanta business man who
a member of the grand jury which
originally indicted Leo M. Frank. He
naa gone to Dea eany, wunouc Having
a single thought that he can now
recall in connection with the Frank
case. Shortly after midnight, about '
the same time the other described
event occurred, he awoke as if frpm
a nightmare, bathed in cpld perspiration
and his wife told him that he
had been trembling like a leaf in his
sleep. He had dreamed that he saw
Leo Frank led from the State farm,
pale as death, with a rope around his neck,
and placed in an automobile.
He said the dream was so vivid that
in it he saw a fencecorner with weeds
growing, and 6 cotton patch indistinct
in the darkness beyond it. After
telling his wife, he wen^t back to
sleep, thinking tfiat it had been sim- i
ply a vivid nightmare. About four ^
hours afterward he was awakened a ]
second time, this time by newsboys '
shouting that Frank had been taken .
by the mob. It is out of fashion to j
believe in supernatural things, and j
both these incidents may easily have l
merely been strange coincidences, .
but however one may choose to view j
them, they did actually occur.
for every 1,000 pounds weight once i
a day for several days and then place '
ordinary salt where the animals can s
eat as much or as little as they want <
and when thev want it. Do not give 1
them all the salt they wg,nt unless 1
they have first had about an ounce {
per 1,000 pounds weight once a day 1
for several days. Too many cattle in J
a small lot, or cattle of different ]
sizes and kinds tend to lessen the ?
gains and the profits. If the manure j
is well saved it will constitute a good
profit and it is therefore, one of the <
most important items in determining
the profits from feeding beef cattle. "
Those who want pastures for next
summer should prepare them now.
Next spring scores will write and .
want to know how they can make a
pasture for summer grazing. Pastures
cannot be made in a week, nor
a month, nor short of several '
months. In fact, it takes several
years to make the best permanent I

do best in the South when sown in
the fall. If a pasture is desired for
next spring and summer, a start must
be made at once. A good pasture
will give as large returns per
acre as any other general field crop
and should have the same care in
preparation and seeding.
One-third the tick-infested area
has been cleared of cattle ticks and
released from quarantine since (
1907. At this rate the entire South
will be clear by 1931. All except
the most backward sections where
the least cattle of the poorest quali- ]
ty exist will probably be cleaned by
1925, or during the next 10 years.
And yet there are those who still ;
contend that the fever ticks cannot
? - -
be eradicated. If no ticks are aiiow- \
ed to drop on a pasture after Sep <
tember 1, that pasture will be free
of ticks by the first of next May.
There is no easier, cheaper or more *
certain way of eradicating ticks.?
