0. .,J A WTEOF SOU U Department of Ag ridL Industrie s. Burei E. J. W14TSONI A We'-ekly. Bullet The vital energy of the plan upon which the State Bureau of Marketing is operated in South Carolina is that It reaches down to the individual on the remotest farm and gives hun the opportunity to self farm products or buy farm products, dealing directly with oth'er individuals by name in dis tant communities. It has been realized from the first that general marketing information as to prices prevailing in different towns failed to reach the man who wanted to be helped. The South 'Carolina Bureau has endeavored from the very first to reach down to the in dividual by name and serve him. The requirements of the Bureau are sim ple;- When any man or woman on the farm has anything to sell it is only necessary to communicate with the Bureau, stating clearly quantity and pri'ce. When it is a case of wanting to buy it is only necessary to address the Bureau, advising the Bureau of the want. Thereis no charge for the service rendered. anl the Bureau posi tively does not perfect any sale and does not under any circumstances han dle any money,. the Bureau simply turnishing the address of the party having the product for sale or who wants to buy, and the transaction must be closed between the individuals and not through the Bureau. Checks should never be. sent to the Bureau even to be forwatded. The only other requirement tha 'the Bureau insists upon is that those who have articles or wants that they wish listed in the regular Tuesday. morning press bul letins must hav'e their communica tions in the office of the Bureau at Col umbia by noon on Saturday preceding publication. During the past week many letters have reached the Bureau testifying to the service that has been rendered to farmers living in the rural districts. The letters are all similar to the fol lowing from a farmer residing in Marl boro coitifty: "I beg to say that I have found the Marketing Bureau very helpful to me and I hope. to see its scope of usefulness enlarged and would be glad to see something of the kind in active operation in every county of the State. I have made sev eral purchases through the medium pf the Bureau and also several sales and exchanges."

There is a popular be lief that warming the air of a room by artificial heat in the rarefied air of the uplands induces pneumonia, but it is doubtful if this has any real foun lation. And the Mexican prefers to shiver under cover of a poncho rather than to sit in comfort and warmth aft er the Eur'opean or American fashion. A Training the Child.

Other developments in the situation a rising out of the enactment and ap proval of the Laney-Odom measure rel- t Ltive to fire insurance were as fol ows: Committeemen representing trade )odies met in Columbia and decided o engage counsel and bring an action n the original jurisdiction of the sa sreme court to test the constitutfon ility of the Laney-Odoin act. A farmers' mUtual fire insurance 3ompany, to operate in Clareddon, I Ljee and Sumter counties, was char ered; this being the third such en. t ,erprise launched since the approval t f the Laney-Odom act.

All agencies, it is thought, will I lse their efforts in bringing the case to the supreme court in the near fu ture so, that the situation caused by the withdrawal of practically all the fire insurance companies from the state will be clarified. This decision was reached by the committee in a session which com menced at noon and was continued in the afternoon. Fitx Hugh McMaster, insurance commissioner, and James A..
