Columbia, February 24:?The end ; of the traditional forty days and j *0:rty nights of lejnslation in South Carolina finds the General Assembly of this State in a peculiar and unen? viable position. The House has finp \Vished its work, such as it is, and has receded until Wednesday to give the j Setyfcte a chance to do some much n^jfod wrestling with "must" bills; -?appropriation and supply meas-: ures which have to be passed.

W While the debate on the compulP sory education bill has been raging, f the Finance committee has been at work on the appropriation bill, which was sent to the Senate last week. The appropriation bill,originating in the House, always comes up for consideration in the final hours of the ? ?? :? ?J -1 I ijegisiauvtf SC8BIUU cuiu amajrs gifva < trouble. This year, according to schedule, the House has finished its part of Legislative work, consisting ' principally of the adoption of the compulsory education bill, the medi cal college bill and matters of local importance, and making provision for the various activities of State and county government, and has turned the appropriation and supply' bills over to the Senate for action. Thus far neither of the supply bills has come out of committee,and the prospects are that there will be no especially flowery strewn path t Tfe/WA ??! F'|?g?fei 1 I ? ! ?^"!9^ets L.

Kinj ' i for the appropriation bill when it reaches the floor of the Senate. The House has receded, with the ?tv,0 c^,nntpuntil Wednes I'UllSCIll U1 VII*. day, and the Senate has adjourned until Tuesday night. The Senate Finance committee meantime will strive to reduce the appropriation and supply bills to order. When the Senate reconvenes tomorrow night it will find on its cal-j endar to be disposed of some of the most important bills of the session, i The House, as already stated, has practically completed its session's! work and only remains in session because the constitution requires it to and because it must stick around for settlement of differences with the Senate. The Senate, however, will find its hands full. Among the more im-1 i -i.-u portant measures to oe aeait wim, besides the appropriation and county supply measures, are the following bills which have passed the House: The Lawson-McCravey compulsory education bill, which has already taken up a great deal of the Senate's time; the Rittenberg liquor bill,providing a system of high license for Charleston; the Rembert bill, providing a tax of 20 cents a horsepower on water power development; the Rembert bill,providing for theState's participation in the Panama-Pacific exposition at San Francisco, and the one mill special school tax bill. ^ O I Among the more important oeuuw bijls before the Senate are: The Earl 2 2 cent passenger fare bill, the Weston school medical inspection bill, the Weston bill providing for an inspector to assist the railroad commission and the Clifton State highway bill.

Thursday the two Houses of the ; Legislature in joint session elected j trustees for the Medical College of I South Carolina, an institution created at this session. Twenty-seven men were put in nomination for trustees, \ of whom there were eight to be selected. The vote resulted in the j election of the following: Henry P J Williams, a banker of Charleston; Dr1 WWW Fennell of Rock Hill, Dr Charles Simms of Spartanburg,Dr S ( B Fishburne of Columbia, Dr W A j ( Tripp of Anderson, Dr J M Davis of Orangeburg, Dr R E Hughes of Lau- < rens and Dr T G Croft of Aiken. The House Thursday passed the j Senate bill providing for the sale by ] the State Sinking Fund commission < of the present site of the State Hos- , pital for the Insane when that iasti- 1 tution is removed to its ricw quar- , ters at State Park. The bil. provides ] that the property must realize at ] least $1,000,000. ( The House sustained the vetoes of the Governor providing pay for the , Cherokee Supervisors of registration < and also the bill providing for the \ decrease from four to two in the i number of commissioners to be se- 1 lected by Spartanburg under the i commission form recently adopted.

The Governor is understood ' to have stated that his only reason for sending the nomination was to show what he thought of Dr Houseal, who was nominated for trustee of the medical college but failed of election.

Much Fertilizer Belnq Used?The Hessian Fly Pest. Benson, February 25:?Judging from the amount of fertilizer being delivered to the farmers of this sec-; tion, indications are that King Cotton's acreage will remain about the I same as last year and that of tobacco will exceed all previous records. Now,since the oat crop has passed the danger line of being injured by the freeze that usually comes in February,the Hessian fly is a pest to be guarded against. The effect of this insect can be seen in some fields of growing oats, where the bottom leaves have a yellow appearance. We have seen it stated that the larva lives at the base of the leaf, be:* J ni/tii* 3 twccu iL anu uic iimiu smm, anu IU the spring che adult gnats emerge and lay their eggs on the leaves some distance from the ground.
