It is {.bout the same in the other sections of tho country where the monkey rum is being made. The conditions under which South Carolina "Monkey rum" is manufactured and its condition as to purity is clearly shown by a distillery lecently ^(bized and destroyed by Federal Prohibition agents E. A. Early and M. L. Wright in Spartanburg county These agents report that they located the plant in the center of a large briar patch .and found the beer ready to be run and the plant prepared for operations. The beer was contained in three large barrels and a tub. Upon the approach of the officers they were greeted by thousands of yellow jackets, hornets, gnats and green flies. The agents state that there was at least a hat full of insects for each container and that about half Were drowned in the beer. No covers had been provided for the protection of the liquid. Upon overturning the barrels and tub the men discovered at le.ast a quart of magcrots under each vessel. The stench, of course, was all but overpowering. The presence of such a variety of insects in such numbers is accounted for by the sweet tooth possessed by insects together with their natural bent to collect around filth. Head of the Field Force L. T. McQueen states that this is not all an extreme case 'as he has this summer rut numerous distilleries in which he has found dead frogs and rats floatin^ about in the beer. In one day of the session of Federal Court which convened at Greenrills, S. C., Judge H. H. Watkins disposed of forty-three (43) cases in which the defendants were charged with violation of the National Prohibition Act. In sentencing one of the defendants late in the afternoon the sympathetic judge remarked that he noted that the defendant could not sicrn his name to his plea of guilty. "Of these who have come before me this afternoon," remarked the Judge, "seven hundred and fifty (750) per cent cannot sign their own names." Ignorance plays first base in the game of illicit distilling, rum-running, bootlegging and even in the use of "Monkey rum." Ignorance plays an important role in all forms of lawlessness but plays a far more important part in "Monkey rum" business than in other ordinary forms of crime. In almost 100 per cent of the cases we find men follow this business as a sole means of support and an intelligent man can find an honest means of providing a livelihood in South Carolina; hence, it is not surprising to find tlvit three fourths of those coming before the court cannot write their names. o NOTICE OF SALE Under and by virtue of a Decree of foreclosure and sale made by His Honor, A.

Clemson College.?Early October is a good time to renovate the lawn. ^ This may be done by applying well 'j decomposed manure broadcast over ) the poorer spots. In addition to this I an .application of nitrate of soda at the rate of 100 pounds per acre should 5 he applied broadcast. ( For sowing new lawns in the Pied- i mont region there is nothing better than a combination of Kentucky blue i grass, while clover, and Bermuda < grass. It takes about 2 bushels of 1 Kentucky blue grass, and 3 pounds of white clover to sow an acre. Bermu da roots should be placed in rows 18 inches apart and IS inches in the row. The soil should then be thoroughly pulverized by repeated harrowing, and the blue grass and white clover seed 1 sown, raked lightly and then rolled. For a (|uick temporary lawn there is nothing better than Italian rye grass. It takes about 1 1-2 bushels to sow an acre. o Following the rains of last week there was some good work done in dragging the streets and roads. During the dry period, the streets and roads had become full of small holes. page 302. TERMS of Sale, cash, purchaser to pay for papers and stamps. sherwood & McMillan, Plaintiffs Attorneys. W. L.

Provost, Extension Bee Specialist. Packing cases should be made of sawdust, dry leaves, or hulls. Whatever material is used, it should by all neans be dry. The hives that are to be packed should have pood young queens rea:ly for spring and plenty of stores ol honey of pood quality. These facts are important to insure a pood crop for next season Farmers' Bulletin 1012 on "Preparing Bees for "Outdoor Wintering" whicl may be had free from the Extensioi Service, gives much good informatioi on this subject. o A big need in each country com munity is more people who are will ing to work in unselfish, helpful up building of the community.
