He paid his way last year and he proposes to raise enough on that acre this year to put him through the Massachusetts Agricultural College at Amherst. He said he entered upon last year's experience for patriotic reasons, never expecting to make any money out of it, but ' he did make money over and above his living and school expenses. Here is an opporutnity that every boy posscsscs.| ' All the capital he needs is will power, for everything else will come naturally. He will earn his living and get an education and such an education that, will surpass anything he gets between school walls, for this boy's gardening involved more than simply sowing and reaping. He studied the best processes and methods and got the be3t yields and products out of the giound. He and Nature formed a partnership and they loved each other's company, and the latter returned to the boy a big profit for every bit of toil and science he put ii.to the ground. The boy is 16, but there is not a grander business man in all Boston than He. o Members of the South Carolina railroad commission went to Charleston for a hearing on the proposition by the owners of the Isle of Palms Traction Company to discontinue operation.

Mrs. Minnie Phil* pot, of this place, writes: "Five years ago I was taken with a pain In my left side. It was right under my left rib. It would commence with an aching and extend up into my left shoulder and on down into my back. By that time the pain would bo so severe I would have to take to bed, and Buffered usually about three days ...I suffered this way for three years, and got to be a mere skeleton and was bo weak I could hardly stand alone. Was not able to go anywhere and had to let my house work go...! suffered awful with a pain In my back and I had the headache all the time. I just was unable to do a thing. My life was a misery, my etomach got In an awful condition, caused from tnidnm so much medicine. I suffered bo much pain. I had just about given up all hopes of our getting anything to help me. One day a Birthday Almanac was thrown in my yard. After reading its testimonials I decided to try Cardui, and am so thankful that I did, for I began to improve when on the second bottle...I am now a well woman and feeling fine and the cure has been permanent for it has been two years since my awful bad health.

S C i ' HOG REMEDIES FALSELY LABELED Several shipments of preparations sold as remedies for hog cholera and other diseases of hogs have been found in interstate commerce by Federal Food and Drug Inspectors and seized upon orders of the Federal courts on the charge that these i preparations were falsely and fraudulently labeled, according to a state ment of the officials of the Bureau of Chemistry, United States Department of Agriculture, who are in charge of the enforcement, of the Food and Drugs Act. Seizures have been effected of the following preparations: Anti-Choleric Hog Remedy; American Hog Remedy; Snoddy Hog Cholera Remedy; Swine-Lixir; Cal-Sino Hog Restorative; National Hog Remdey; C< TT T r T-* ? o. n. nug nemeoy; AH KA Hot; Health Compound; B.

W OORWAT, 8. O BRIGHTER OUTLOOK I FOR COTTON TRADE Senator E. D. Smith spent a day in Columbia recently. While there Senator Smith gave out for publication J i letter he recently received from Darney Baruch, written in France February 14, which letter brings much encouragement as to the cotton dtuation. Mr. Baruch emphasized the restrictions among the allies and those igainst the neutrals would likely be irted within the immediate future, ami "later on there can be some re- , iaxation of the restrictions against , Ihc central empires. Senator Smith said President Wil- ' son had recently expressed the opin- , ion that Germany would never be , able to pay the indemnity unless raw nr cterials were allowed to enter Ger- i many. The senator was of the opinion that an allied agreement would be effected soon to allow cotton and other raw materials to flow into Germany. With the lifting of the embargo, cotton prices are bound to soar, was the consensus of opinion. The great ttouble to be considered was that of finance in Europe, which will be the determining factor in the nvicn paid for the cotton. Concerning the failure of the general assembly to pass a good roads law, Smith said he was keenly disappointed. Nothing would mean so much to the State, and particularly the farmers. The letter from Mr. llaruch reads: "Hotel de Crillon, Paris. France, Feb ruary 14, 1919. *'The president has really accomplished big things over here. It may not appear so on the surface, but this is about what has happened. The peace conference convened, and it then subdivided its work among seveial subcommittees on such subjects as the league of nations, finance, economics, reparation, labor, waterways. etc. This is also the socalled ten big divisions which discusses and will make recommendations concerning territorial divisions. All these subcommittees are at work and will report their findings to the peace conference, which, in turn, will decide in what form they will go into the treaty of peace. When you think of the enormity of the job, how many different nations there are with wide divergence of interests, I really think a great deal of work has been done." Speaking of the president's con ruction with the peace conference, Mr. Baruch says: "He (Wilson) has ci mmantled the respect and admiration of every one. His power of argument, his courteous and calm manner, his firmness and his unfaltering courage have easily made him the leading figure of the conference. Furthermore, if we are to get any kind of a peace soon, he must return immediately. "The business and finance conditions are very serious, but are slowly growing better. We have encountered all sorts of difficulties in opening ; up the markets heie and it has required steady pounding and has been an uphill fight. Of course, what the world wants is an early peace in order that the people of the world may go to work; but while the making of the peace is going on all of the rest) ictions among the allied nations and those against neutrals can be relaxed. Later on there can be some r< lax at ion of the restrictions against the central empires. "We have been trying for a long time to increase the sales of American products here and have been met on every side with extreme difficulties, the greatest of which is the in ability to finance. One day we pet a decision and the next day it is with drawn. Ever since I have been here I have been active in trying- to get the European people to take a large amount of cotton. My efforts have rot borne much fruit, but something has been accomplished. The Belgians have bought and financed through England, how much I do not know. I am in hopes of having considerable quantities taken in France and England. The Czecho-S'avs want about 400,000 bales to be sent to Prague. It is simply a matter of credits. 1 (lVel certain that if the embargoes could be raised that all of the cotton ecu Id be sold at good prices. Every day's delay makes a ureal difference to tho poor Southern fanners and merchants who have been carrying the load without tho protection the wheat growers have. As you will urderstand there are many reasons why I feel a very great sympathy for the Southern farmer, and I know how hard you have been working and how fair you have tried to be." 0 Buy War Savings Stamps, o Colds Cause Grip and Influenza LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE Tablet* remove the guse.

Washington.?Groat swarms of the | 17 year locust will infest the United States in late May and early June this year, which is expected by scientists to be one of the worst "locust years" on record. Experts of the de- , partment of agriculture, however, see nothing alarming in the prospect. Once regarded superstitiously as a harbinger of disaster, the periodical cicada, popularly known as the 17 year locust because it comes at long intervals, is seen now to be no more than an ordinary nonpoisonous insect pest, which can do little damage if pioper precautions are taken. The chief injury inflicted by the insect consists almost wholly in chiseling grooves in the branches of trees for depositing eggs. Young fruit trees sometimes are killed, but the damage generally seems greater than it actually is, according to the ento-| mclogists, and popular alarm is out of proportion to the teal danger. Suggested precautionary measures are: Defer putting out young fruit trees until next year; postpone budding operations; do no pruning this spring. When the insects begin coming ont, hand pick them from young trees or spray them with pyrcthrum powder, kerosene emulsions, or a solution of carbolic acid or acetic acid. Later, when the insects are ready to begin laying, spray young fruit trees with whitewash. Close Check Kept. The department of agriculture has kept close check for many years of il' the broods of locusts and can forecast accurately when and where he pests will appear. Large reCri 1)11 V Willi lin 4V.C.. I ..II.. uv Uiittvvvi I.I11.N yvui where one brood appeared 17 years ago and in other regions which suffered 13 years ago, the States including Alabama, District of Columbia, Deleware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, Nc-w York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin. Belief that the 1919 brood will be exceptionally large is based on the fact that the 17 year brood coming out this year is brood 10, perhaps the largest of the 17 year brood, and that brood 18 of the 13 year family comes out at the same time. The year 18G3 was the greatest locust year in history, when brood 19, the largest of t ie 13 year family, appeared in conjunction with brood 10 of the 17 yt a r family. Will Rrood Regions. There will be three regions of greatest occurrence of brood 10, one covering New Jersey, Maryland and Eastern Pennsylvania; another coveiing Indiana, the greater part of j Ohio and Southern Michigan; and a third covering Western North Carolina, Eastern Tennessee and Northon Georgia. While brood 10 will affect 20 States, brood 18 will appear in only five States?Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee, and only limited areas in those States. C. L. Marlatt, chairman of the Federal horticultural board, who has perfected the information on the cicada, calls the insect the most interesting in the world, because of the spectacular swarms in which it appears, its queer recurrence at long intervals and the portentous significance frequently attached to it. Every locust year has been a year of fear and dread, even in civilized times. Some people have fancied that they could detect in the cry of the insect a resemblance to the name of the Egyptian monarch, Pharaoh, who persecuted the Isrealites. Superstition attached also to the shape of the filmy bars on the cicada's wings, which seemed to form the letter "W," interpreted as a forecast of war. "Since this outbreak will come just at the conclusion of the greatest war," Mr. Marlott said, "and when even the imagination of the rural piophet could hardly conjure up the likelihood of another one, some new explanation will apparently have to be found." , o Columbia dentists and specialists arc being annoyed by daytime robbers.

JrBRAND DUKE ASKS ALLIES TO ASSIST Jnless They Intervene Russia Will Be Lost for Many Years FORMER RULERS MAY TURN TO GERMANY Says Germans Know How to Deal With the Bolsheviki. Paris.?Former Grand Duke Alexander Michaelovitch, who arrived in Paris recently from the Crimea, told The Associated Press that unless armed Allied intervention in Russia began at once the situation in Russia would become hopelessly desperate that it would take years, perhaps decades to restore a semblance of order and bring about peace in eastern Europe. The former Grand Duke, who is a brother-in-law of the foimer Emperor, contincd: "1 do not ask the Allies to fight lor us. We merely ask them to keep o 'der in the territories wrested from P.olshevism by the governments already fighting the Soviet. "I came here in January in an attemDt. to hr>lr? tv?*? --x-.f. iiij iwmin y us <l pri? vate citizen acquainted with conditions in Kusia. I thought I would f;nd justice and sympathy at the Peace Conference hut I have been disappointed, as I found visible only personal intrigues, partly political and national egotism." Rebuffed by President. "1 requested President Wilson to receive me but he replied through his secretary that he was too busy with Peace Conference matters. What matter can be more momentous to the Peace Conference than tiie Russian problem ? I asked te be allowed to go to England but was refused a passport, yet they received Kerensky. I dare not request permission to visit America, not wishing to invite a rebuff. Referring to the proposed conference on the Princess Island, the grand duke said the proposal was a mistake us it gave the Bolsheviki a strong weapon to wield in Russia over the cowering population. The VUUllllllg, II1P grand duke added, that the allied governments have recognized them because they feared the Bolsheviki. "On January," the grand duke continued, "seven days after the Princess Island proposal, the Bolsheviki led out my two brothers and two cousins from the fortress of St. Peter and St. Paul and shot them without trial. They never would hyvc dared to do this unless they had been sure of the moral support afforded by the semi-recognition by the Peace Conference. 'v "Had President Wilson come out strongly and surely with a rcpudia tion of and non-recognition of the ! Bolsheviki, it would have not encouraged the governments warring agaist them. Boshevism will be the devil in the future League of Nations. May Turn to Germany. The grand duke was somewhat skeptical whether royalty was a thing of the past. He then reverted to conditions in Ru?sin ... -I "What we want from the allies is a frank statement of whether they intend to intervene in Russia or not, or whether we have to look elscs where for salvation. Under their piesent state of minci the would-be ruling classes in Russia probably will look to Germany for help and the Germans understand how to deal with the Bolsheviki. "It is my opinion that the Spartacan movement in Germany is kept alive only as a means of blackmail against the allies. When the preliminary peace is signed, when Germany has used the Spartacans to the utmost to blackmail the entente into sending food and granting merciful conditions of peace, when Spartacism has served its purpose, it will disappear." * o~ TRESPASS NOTICE.
