IN RICHLAND Official Notice Taken of the In vasion of This State By South Carolina Commissioner Some Anderson county farmers know what the army worm is, while [ <v?hers do not. Ilovrcvur, ihose wiio | do not know are likely to find out, un. l?sa the department of agriculture, Clemson College and the farmers | themselves succeed in heading off the invasion of the pest. Two years ago the worm invaded South Carolina and would have done much damage in all sections of the state, had it not been almost fall when the worm apepared and the cotton had advanced to such a stage that no dam age was done. However, the worm is I here this year In time enough to do' damage and from all appcarancco andj indications at thlr- t'.ine, it behoovob every farmer to take provcutlve stcpuj at once. The following order relative' to the Invasion of this state has been issued by the department of agricul ture: "There are in this Btatc and several othor southern states an invasion of the tall army worm on corn, grasB and cotton. This caterpillar 1b about one to one and one (half inches long when grown. It Is quite diff?rent from the cotton caterpillar, 'although many farmers mistake the one for the other. This Insect, which Is now in this state, is not the cotton caterpillar which die ce, much injury to coton last Bummer, but 1b the fall army worm, which'is sometimes called the grass worm. The; fall army worm is usually present la auch small numbers that they do no harm to the crop, but, on the other hand, oa tthe grass in the fields. It is only when this insect gets abundant that It. does harm by eating grass, corn, peas and cotton. The weather condition? this summer havo been un usually favorable for it3 development.. Most farmers who have seen the wdrk, of this Insect realize that immediate action ie necessary for the control of this pest. . "Control Measure?The two. poisons that have given-the best satisfaction so far are. powdered arsenate of lead and paris green. Paris green can us ually be bought-at local drug store* While as a vale arsenato of lead is not handled by such dealers. The arson ate of lead can re secured from such wholesale dealers and most all seed houses. "How to Distribute the Polsor/?

A North Carolins man writing to the Manufacturers' Record has told of the how the. maintenance of the road is accomplished, and it might be well to try thJS same scheme on some of the Anderson highways. . "Parties on the Charlotte-Asbevllle highway, on the Henderapnvllle-Aeh vHle highway, have organized a co operative road and are employing the road overseers and section men whose business it is to''keep up the road and repair same, just as the section men along the railroad do. The over seers serve without compensation tho section boSB end .others, ode for each four miles of .road, get. pay. , "All those who contribute as much as 25 cents are members of tho organ ization and are entitled to r.ne vote, and each 25 cents additional that is paid in entitles-the contributor to a VO?.6 .

Chicago,.July 31?Armour's millions today rescued - the wheat trade from panic. Instead of chaos resulting from a settlement day in the midst of a war market, with possibly scores of firms embarrassed and virtual certainty that bankrupts, few or many, would ensue, the Chicago Board of Trade, was enabled to maintain Its record of nev er having closed no matter how great the emergency. Tonight not one fail ure had taken place. The chief rea son was that seventy-flv? entangled firms and individuals on 'change were freely given today ? by Armour and Company, whatever aid the necessi ties of the .situation required. George ?. Marcy, president of the Armour Grain Company, was the man who rose to the occasion. He quietly circulated word on the. floor of the board, partly in : person and partly through his lieutenants, that any member in trouble need only come to him. Before nightfall. Armour and Company bad taken over 8,000,000 bushels of open trade, which if not transferred, were critically in danger of not being; safely settled In due con tract time on the expiration of bus iness hours at the end of the month.

" GLOOMY OUTLOOK FOB I WAR RAS DEPRESSING EF FECT HERE PROSPECT IS DARK All Industries of This Section Must Be Effected By War Now Being ! Waged Abroad What will bo tho effects upon local business of a general European war? This question has been asked and an swered during tho past two or three days. The answers vary widely, though it Is tho concensus of opin ion that a war In Epropo will make the money market '-of this country tight. This being tho case. Anderson's Industries will feel tho effects of tho conflict, for tho money which tho mlllh of this section operate upon comes from the samo sources which Europe will draw from?tho general banks ot there ip. no fear of a panic, as the gov ernment has asserted its intention of providing money for crop moving pur poses. I On the other sldo of the question, I there arc some who contend that a European war would enrich tho I United States, as this country woulu be called upon for supplies. A gen eral war would cripple many Euro pean industries, and the industries of the United States more than any other nation would be called upon to supply1 ! the deficit. Should this condition enne [about, the United States would eventu I ally be tho mercenary bniieflelurv of the conflict. Still another phase- r i the matter, and the one which e m sod a severe reaction in the markets of Thursday, 1b the fact that the commerce of the world might be tied up by the war. The United States has no merchant marine which could handle *ho com merce, and should ships of other nat ions bu unwilling or unable to take the high seas and engage In commerce the United States might And Itself drained of gold, and overstocked in goods- Tho foreign commerce of this nation would bo shut off by this con tingency. Whatever may ho tho effect of tho war upon the United States Anderson will be aware of these effects. The larger industries of this section are very. sensitive, and that which affects the natlod's business and finances will quickly affect the mill Interests of this section, because of .the inci that these mills are so intimately related to the business of tho nation. The r?sulta of the threatened em brogllo has already-'been'felt as the cotton exchange has closed; Tho clos ing. was not unwelcome, as-there was much uncertainty and w?dnessin the market that trading was unsatisfac tory. LOCAL MAN MAY GET FINE TRIP South Carolina Will Send Two Men To San Francisco Within Next Few Days It Ib understood that there 1b some possibility of an Anderson man being picked as one of the two representa tives to go from this State to San Francisco within the next few weeks to make arrangements for tho South Carolina exhibit, which will be seen at the Panama opposition. This pos sibility lies'In tho fact that two men are to be chosen for this duty, one to come from the "low country" and the other from the Piedmont section. It is known that those who have been In strumentai In arranging for tho South Carolina exhibit look with favor up- j on selecting a man from this city for j the work. Porter A. Wbaley, secretary of the Anderson chamber of commerce re ceived a telegram yesterday, asking if he would come to Columbia Mon day for a meeting of those Interested I in the proposition and Mr. Whaley I will probably make tbe trip. He may be accompanied by one or two An derson people. Plans for tho South Carolina exhib it are getting along nicely. The fund Is, Being raised and since the commit tee has struck on the. Idea of sending a number of medals'out all over the State, to be sold at $1 each, and the I proceeds applied to the fund, this fund j will probably be considerably swelled within the next few days. The Intel ligencer has .'received, five, of these medals, as did every other newspaper In the state. When each of these pa- ' pers sell their five, five more will be sent to every bank in the state for thorn to dispose of. In this way a number of pretty little medals will be distributed all over, the state and many dollars will be realized for: tbe State's, exhibit. NEW BOOKLET O?
