Interesting Facts For December. Now is a good time to put your club garden tools in order. Have you set out your strawberry plants yet? If not, be sure to do so this month. Spread pine tops over your plot of turnip salad to protect it from severe cold and thus prevent its being killed. Cabbage seed of All Seasons and Sure Head varieties may now be planted in cold frames under glass. It is getting a little late, yet excellent r.abbage are grown from seed sown in December. There is yet time to break land free from vegetables and other crops. It should be done before the land becomes too wet. You will never regret the winter breaking of soil and will have much for which to be thankful next spring. If late cabbage are headed you may pull them up hy the roots, pile in a cone shaped pile with hdads turned downward, cover with straw, corn stalks and earth, just according to tne 010 time method of banking sweet potatoes. Banked in this way. they bleach like Northern winter cabbbage found in your markets. LOIS CARRAWAY. Assistant H. D.

HAZARD ((g). 1922. Western Newspaper Union.) AS WE look into the immediate future and greet a New Yeur there is one figure that we won# 4 A. > ? ? ? ~ a\ ~ \ * ? M niiui iu OCT upon UIV lit? Ml UK history, the figure of prosperity. It may be that we think that we do see it while we are really gazing upon a mirage. Hope always tells a liattering tale and is ready to he the father of thoughts. Imagination is akin to faitli, hut requires no real basis. If our optimistic outlook is warranted it is so because we can l?elleve In a prosperity that Is to be real hecause It will he the product and the possession of us all. ftfCivilization is the sum of co-opj'erntlve Intelligence. All the capital in the world could not mine coal without miners, and all the miners 1 in the world could not do It without capital. Idle wealth has proved no more than accumulated uselessness in eastern countries; men have starved to death In the midst of vast hut unappreciated natural resources. While the employment of money and the wise direction of labor have given to the West its Immense advantages of social and economic riches and well being. fl| Russia Is perishing under the inj'cubus of a stagnant communism that takes away the Incentives of progress, banishes leadership, lives upon past accumulations while they last, and starves afterwards. The interchange of abilities is cut oft, the social circulation of necessary differences in people Is arrested, the rewards of a genius for affairs are withheld, production Is ended and prosperity lynched. It Is like a vast body wherein there Is no circulation of social life blood. JW America haa thriven and must thrive upon the largest encouragement of individualism that a true collectivism admits of. When the crew cannot navigate the ship there Is no advantage In killing the captain. It isn't necessary to have tyranny In order to have a .captain, hut society and business must have leaders and governors, and there cannot he two captains on any ship. j {VAfter all. men hardly expect to ^ pass for more than they are worth. The real kick in our democracy Is against false differences. Ours Is the land of a fair chance. It Is the home of opportunity. No crust keeps merit down. In an inter- | . change of values every one here has had and must have a chance to make the most of himself. J tfjjln doing this he will need and | 'use his fellows. No one ever succeeded yet in being great or pros- \ perous as a hermit. We cllinh up , upon each other. It takes us all to make and to keep civilisation. A man owes himself and his fortune to society In a very large degree. Are we not all members of a great i and wealthy body politic, wherein no one can live to himself or die without loss to the rest? #jjl-.et a dozen men, each man owning his neighbor five dollars, sit In a circle. Lot one of these take a five-dollar bill from his pocket and pay his debt to the man next to ihlm. Let this man pay his neighbor and the next man pay his until the bill shall have gone round the circle and returned to the man who started It on It* round. Tills man may return the bill to hi* pocket with the happy consciousness that he has paid his debt and also received what was due him, and that every other man In the group has the same satisfaction. But If the first man had not started the bill going; there would have been no such results. He would then have Illustrated Russia, Instead of America. fJThe'secret of civilization Is the 1 mil at Ion of ability. It Is the secret of prosperity. Let every man circulate his worth to society, so shall there be a true communism, also a true capitalism. There Is a conundrum which asks why one should prefer a dollar bill to a gold dollar. The answer Is, "Recause, when you put It Into your pocket you double It, and when you take It out you find It In. creases.'* Prosperity progresses as we pass on what we are anr* have.

For weeks the contract for the in-11 terior of the building ha<l been helu ' up, because no one was foolish ( enough to lend money for this work 1 when there was not a lull board o> \ trustees to guarantee its pay men' \ from the 10 mill tax. The importance of letting this contract will be seen from the fact that the school authorities had been notified by the State Department of Education that no more state aid for school purposes would be given to Loris, unless the new building was completed ' and used during the term of 1922-23. ^ Though the County Board was ] continually appealed to for relief from this situation, it was three ' weeks after this appointment of Mr. ' Hard wick and Dr. Richardson before .' any official notice was received.' About the 20th day of August Dr. Richardson and Mr. Hardwick were officially notified that they had been appointed trustees by a majori-| ty vote of the County Hoard of Ed- 1 ucation. This notification was signed by A. J. Baker and T. B. Lewis of the , County Board. Considering that Mr. Lewis is an attorney of high standing, and after consulting Col. R. B. Scarborough as 10 the legality of the appointment, and being t ssured by him that Mr. Hardwick and Dr. Richardson were legally appointed trustees of Loiic; School; the board of trustees met and ' oragnized, electing Mr. B. H. Hinson. and Dr. Richardson, clerk. The board of trustees promptly let tlu contract for finishing the building, and began arranging for loans with which to finance the work. Mr. Allen was notified of the organization of the board by the clerk, Dr. Richardson, who received from him a letter in which the following statement is found. "1 am absolutely ignorant pi your being a 1 trustee of Loris School District. 1. you have been appointed by the members of the County Board, they nave clone so witnout my Knowledge i or consent. I recognize no trustees in Loris but Mr. D. D. Harre!scn, Mr. D. W. Hardwick, and Mr. B. H. Hinson." , The interest on the school bonds j was due in September and a pay ' warrant i'or the amount, signed I) s the trustees, was sent to Supt. Allen for his endorsement. He refused to sign it. The trustees made private i arrangements to take care of the interest on the bonds. The school is nearing the end of .the fourth month and not a teachor (has received a dollar of the salary due for teaching. The teachers have not uttered a word of complaint aaginst the trustees, fi'lly realizing that the trouble is not in * oris. It is true that about November 25th Mr. O. C. Cox received from i the Supt. a commission as trustee. This commission was dated back to June and was signed by A. J. Baker. A written statement from Mr. , Baker, however, gives the fact that this commission was one of a number signed in blank by him, and that there was an understanding that none 'of the blanks thus signed by him would be used to commission trustees in districts where there was any con . tiv.versy. There is no feeling in Loris against Mr. Cox, either on the part of the school folks or any one else. Mr. Hardwick and Dr. Richardson were appointed trustees in August; the board of trustees organized and began to function at once, and have continued to discharge the duties the office. It was impossible for Mr. ' Allen to fill a vacancy which did , not exist. In order to make Mr. j Cox's appointment valid, it would have been nccessary for the County Hoard of Education to make a vacan cy by due process of law. This was not done in the opinion of the writer.

Delay until this date would have made it impossible to finish the ' uilding in time for use this term, md would have removed every chance for receiving state .aid for the school. Loss of state aid would have forced the school to close.

This article would be incomplete cvithout mentioning the school buildng. As evidence of the unity of the [.oris people, and of their determination to have a good school, one haa >nly to look at the handsome brick auiiding which will be occupied early in the new year. Situated upon a four-acre lot, with broad streets on three sides, the building contains a superintendent's office, a library, ten classrooms, each of which has a cloakroom and a built-in bookcase, and a commodious auditorium, with a balcony. The building as well as the auditorium, is two stories in height, and the lighting and the ventilation are ideal. I/oris has a schoolhouse of which any town might well be proud. " 1 m FIXING BEES FOR WINTER Clemson College.?In many sections of the state the season of 1922 seems to have been an olT year for honev production. Nectar flow, like most other crops in agriculture, varies somewhat from year to year, and the seasons may not b^ expected to be favorable every year for maximum honey production. Beekeepers who secured only a small honey crop this year should bear this in mind and not become discouraged on this account, say* Prof. A. F. Conrad, Entomologist, in discussing preparation of bees for winter. The bees should -be properly prepared to winter successfully, which depends principally on the stores in the hive at the end of the honey flow. Hives should not ba opened in cold weather for examination, on account of the danger of chilling the bees. They can be opened during the warm pails of warm days. To arrive at a correct estimate of the amount of stores in a hivo without opening it is rather difficult on account of the great vardiaion and the kinds of hives used. In tho frame hives it may be estimated that it should not weigh less than thirty-five pounds at the beginnig ot! the wintering period. In trying to determine this for a box hivo one has to take into consideration the material out of which the hive is constructed. The tall box 'hive of course weighs more than the frame hive. Attention is directed to Far fliers' Bulletin 1012, on the preparation of bees for outdoor wintering. Every beekeeper should carefully examine this without delay, in order to be able to give his bees the best protection. Failing in this, it may be expected that many colonies will dwindle and will be unable to build up for the important early honey flow next spring; and it must not be forgotten that in order to get the honey flow the colonics must b3 ricn in Dee population. o OH!
