TEXT OF THE FISH UW.
The Close Season?Floe for Violation |
Divided with Informer.
A subscriber asks us to pub 1
lisli the ti-sh law as it applies to
Black river and other streams,
in Williamsburg county. We J j
have looked up the statutes and j
the iatest legislation on the
subject, Act of lh02, is as fol-p
lows: \
. !'
Section 524, Code of Laws of j
South Carolina 1902, says:
"It shall not be lawful for any
person in the counties ol Horry,
Marion, Darlington, Clarendon.
Chesterfield, Georgetown, Marl- j
boro, Williamsburg, Florence j
and Richland to lish with nets i
or gigs, or set traps, or shoot \
lish with any kind of gun,in any J
of the fresh waters,rivers.creeks j
lakes or other streams in said I ^
counties between the tirst day j
of May and the tirst day of ^ep-!.
tember in any year hereafter.
And it shall not be lawful for
any person to lish with hook J
and line or otherwise in the wa- 1
tersof Black river, in Williams- (
burg county, in this State, be- \
tween the fifteenth day of June ,
and the fifteenth day of August 1
in any year hereafter.
One half all fines collected
f f\r l'i.tlot! t^r\ i,f tj,ic tprt'nri
ivi * ivm wivn vi <rv. v ?<\/u
shall l*e paid to the informer by
the magistrate collecting the
same, and the other half shall!1
be paid into the county treasury.
Sec. r?2.r). Any person violating
the provisions of the foregoing
section shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor and upon
conviction thereof oy a court
of competent jurisdiction, shall
be lined in the -sum of twenty
dollars, or imprisonment an the
county jail for a period of thirty1
days.
Abool Bws and Insects
Editor couvty Record:
Mr James, in your last issue,
wishes to know how it is that the
"science*'which was brought to
bear in a previous article of aiine i
does not seem to conform with what 1
heclaimsas his piactical knowledge 1
in r^orjirrl thpine<vr in : h- irprnelii
*" *v v% 'v v"v ~
of Indian corn.
The explanation is simply this:!
There is only one insect commonly ;
occurring iu this section which1
buries itself in the keruals of corn,
and that i-s the small beetle., popu- :
larly known as the corn weevil, or i;
si! mil us, and technically nsWmww^
$uriua/iie?**\ There may be one
or tW'? other species nearly related ^
and of similar habits, but in no case :i
do any of these accompany the grain jj
to the soil and there attacks the ;
growing plant. If, therefore, Mri
James has in mind any of the weevils
he is wrong: if too he refers to j
the insect which plays gieat navoc ji
with the young plants early in the:
season, commonly known as the
bud worm, then his conclusions iu
regard to the hot water are also!
i
wrong, since this insect spends its
wiuters in the larval grub stage, or
as pupa*, in the soil, and begins[
foraging when the warm weather I
-sets in and about the time the corn i
crop is in its infancy. A lit'.le later
in the season the game insect ?p-!
pears in the adult form and is then j
generally known as one of the dia~ ^
hroticas, or cucumber beetles. The i
most common species, and that responsible
perhaps for nearly all in- i
jury to com as a "bud worm" is dinbroiua
longicarai* and sometimes D ;
duod&:iu\vrenclata* the latter being j?
the common spotted cucumber j
beetle. j
Hot water, therefore, can have no j
effeet on such insect life.
Now, Mr Editor, if the type- j
setter finds trouble with the techni- j
cal terms herein I at least hope he J
may be able to set up the common
vocabulary employed.
Very truly yours, j
Laurence H McCullough,

Royal Roman Hippodrome?Mammoth
Menagerie and Museum?A Word
or Two About Elephants.
"There is sometimes as strong an
attachment between the elephant
and his keeper as between husband
and wife, and should the keeper be
a.tacked by man or beast, the ekphunt
will pull up his sfakes or
break his chain to come to the rescue.
It is also olten true that an
elephant will foi ni such an attachment
for another elephant that lie
will brooK no abuse of his favorite.
"In nearly every instance where a
keeper has been killed by his elephant
the crime was preceded by some act
of cruelty or fool hardiness on the
part of the man himself.
"The elephant's trunk is one of
the wonders of the world. Cuvier,
tlio orrAut PVpiipVi naturalist, f.stima
ted that there are 40,000 muscles in
this wonderful organ. One does
not wonder at this after seeing the
many wonderful movements of the
elephant's trunk. He can, by
means of the little linger at its up,
pick up very small objects, perhaps
not a pin ar needle, as has been
sometimes staged, but certainly oh*
jects that are quite small. He can
also use it to lift a very heavy
weight or strike a mighty blow. It
is through the ti ink that the sonorous
and far-reaching noise known
as trumpeting is made."'
The largest and smallest elephants
in the world are included in the herd
carried by Howe's Great London
Shows, to exhibit at Kingstree
