1 SMALL BLAZE
CAUSESALARM
H i i
v i.muu wucs, a snort circuit, or
something of that kind, was doubtless
responsible for a small blaze
la t Thursday night in the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Bacot, in the southern
residence section of the town.
As the light was turned on in the
dining room, the lamp cord blazed up
to the ceiling in a lurid flame. The
room was filled with smoke and a
fire alarm was given.
T e fire department responded
pi\ Mptly and a large crowd gathered
at the place.
The fire was already out when th^
I crowd got there and there was very
* little damage done.
I Claims against a railroad are
getting harder and harder to collect.
It is the fault of several things in
connection with the railroad business
in this country. Some people mak%
a habit of trying to beat the railroads
in one way or another and
V this makes the railroad men suspi
cious of every claim that is filed.

SMOKING MIv\T \FTKR CURING
Clomson College, Dee. 15.? Following
the instructions given recently on
curing meat by the brine method and
(he dry method, the suggestions given
helow on smoking meat after curing
may he of inlorost and value to many
farmers, says 10. G. Goodboy, assistant
professor of animal husbandry.
After the meat is cured wash it
thoroughly with lukewarm water and
hang in the smoke house for smoking.
Hang, the pieces of meat so they will
not touch but will permit a free circulation
of a'ir. After the meat has been
hanging twenty-four hours, start the
smoke, using hickory, maple or some
hard wood. Corn cobs will do but
they give the meat a dirty appearance.
Don't get the meat too hot. Let
the fire start slowly and keep it well
smothered, '('hirty-six to forty-eight
hours' smoking is sufficient, but in hot
weather it is better to start the fire
every other day and smoke a total of
sixty hours.
Smoked meat, after it is hard and
firm, should be wrapped in heavy
paper and put in a muslin sack. It
is important that the top of the sack
be tied so it will keep insects out.
Paint each sack with yellow wash
and hang the meat up. Never stack
it in a pile.
Recipe for Yellow Wash
For 100 pound hams or bacon use
3 pounds of barium sulphate, 1 ounce
of irlue. 1 11 ounces chrome vellow
(lcyul chroniate), (! ounces of flour.
Fill a pail about one-half full of
water and dissolve all of the flour.
Dissolve the chrome yellow in a quart
<?f water in a separate vessel and add
th<* solution and the jrlue to the flour.
Hrinfc this to a boil and add the haiv
ium sulphate slowly, stirrinjv constvintIv.
Make the wash the day before it
is required. Stir it frequentlv when
iu infi' and apply with a brush.
FINE WE \THER.
The people cannot complain of tluweather
we have had in this section
so far tins winter. Some are lookin";
for cold days and ice and snow
later on, hut we have not had it very
had so far.
Look at the ads in this- issue and
trade with the men who adverti e.
floods that are advertised are always
the host Roods to he had. There is
no reputable business house that car
afford to pay tlie expense of advertising
worthless goods.

CONWAY, S. C., THURSDAY,
JOINT LEG ISLATIV
INTENDS TAX RE
Statement of the Committee o
Makes Intere
at Thi
www? ?
Reduction of the ^tate tax levy for
l!)22 1>y at least one-third is to be
tl o major proposal of the joint 1 egislative
Committee on Economy and
Consolidation, according to an announcement
follow in<r a two day
session of the Committ in Columbia
last week. The meeting was alien
V'l !>v Senator Niels Christensen,
Chairman, Senators V. A. Miller ami
W. Fred Li<>htsey, and Representatives
I'!. T. lli'ehes and J. Ed An
derson. The only member absent
wa Representative John K. Hamblin,
\ !, ? was unavoidably detain d
by cases in court.
Accoi dim;- to the Committee's
statement, three different devices will
be used to re !uce the tate tax levy
from twelve m:!!s to iirht mills or
less. The first is to postpone the
construclifm of practically all buildin.u*
operations for a year. The secend
is to carry on the state government
at -mailer cost by means of
bettor organization and improved
operating* procedure. The third is
to raise part of the stat< 's money by
levies on those pow escaping wholly
or partially their fair share of th
buidon. All told, according' to the
C ?mt it e, the general property tax
reduced over $2,000,00*0 as
compared with 1921.
A t ?r con iderable discussion th
<"ommilloe came to the conclusion
.hat inancial conditions in the stale
vould justify its recommendation to
Legislature of defenine; prac
an buii'ln;;' operations i?s I
?tato in titutions in 1022. Such ac
would result in a reduction of
the appropriation- hv approximately
half a million dollars. The Com nittee
realize.. t'uil this moans men
ilv> do fovn -io- of expenditures
which in some cases will have to be
made later. In only a few instances,
ho\. ' *:cv, v ;; the Committee able t <
'oarr of condition nmking the erection
of new buildings at ehre very
desirable and in most cases it wa
thought no v.i'eat hardship would n
suit from a postponement of the
hrihli nroi'Tam for one year.
The principal attention of tho
Committee was f'iven to the possihiiity
of savinjvs through the consolidation
of state agencies, through
Ix 11- > internal organization in .denartments
and in. 1 ituions, through
the central purchasing of supplie ,
through improvements in the state'.WATSON

Washington.?Senator Watson at
a mooting of the Senate committee
investigating his*charges that soldier
were hanged in France without trial
threatened to slap the face of an
army officer in the audience. The
meeting was nearly broken up in
the row which followed.
Detailed records of the War Department
relating to the legal execution
of eleven members of the
American expeditionary forces were
presented to a Senate investigating
committee by way of denial of
charges that scores of soldiers had
been hanged without trial. Out of
consideration for the families of the
dead, the names of the eleven were
omitted from the record.
Read by Col. Walter E. Bethel,
(Ion. Pershing's judge advocate general
in France, the records showed
that those executed by the military
authorities included eight negroes,
two whites and one Indian.
Senator Watson shook his finger
in the face of Major George W.
Cocheu, and threatened to slap him
"if ho looks at me again that way."
Chairman Hrandegee demanded the
