That Cattle Tick BUI.
Editor County Record:?
I notice the bill passed by the
Legislature providing $30,000 for
tick eradication for South Carolina.
Well, I think the substitute offered
by Hon Josh Ashley would be the
best thing for the farmers, as the
taxes are high enough now and we
did not send our delegation from
Williamsburg to raise the taxes on
us, but to stand up for our special
interests, and I think the man who
started the tick bill should have it to
pay, as he just wants a bill in the
rich man's pocket.
I would suggest that they ask the
farmers about this bill, before it
passes the Upper House, and let's
have their decision on it. I would
vote in favor of a bill to fence the
farm land and let the stock go at
large again; and,if it were necessary,
to have the eradication bill, all
right; but, as it stands now, there
is not much stock to lose by ticks
anyway. What stock there is, is,
like mine, in the stalls, where the
owner can use a substitute all right.

Cades, Rt 1, March 2.
P S:?Please publish the foregoing
and put it before the Senator
for his decision. Our taxes are
about twenty-five per cent higher
tHnn thpv wprp 5 veara ago and I
can't see where we are any better
off by it; so, we the farmers of my
section are not so well pleased with
so many money bills without some
good being: done. Please ask the
Senator to try to change the road
laws back and require them to
work each man eight days instead
of paying two dollars. v C W F.
Truck Crops Damaged.
Truck crops of Charleston and adjoining
counties have suffered severely
because of the freezing
weather of the last two days, according
to a statement yesterday by
W McLeod Frampton, agricultural
secretary of the Chamber of Commerce.
In fact, the damage done
will far exceed that caused by the
snow and a'eet of the latter part of
February: said Mr Frampton.
The evil effects of the cold weather
were greatly accentuated by the
ground being soaked with water, as
a result of the heavy rains of last
Saturday. Had the soil been dry it
would have been less likely to freeze.
In speaking of the reason for che
greater damage of the last two days
over that done by the snow and
sleet of last week, Mr Frampton explained
that on prior occasions the
snow fell first, forming a warm
white covering over the earth,which
served well as a protection against
the cold weather which accompani- j
ed it.
The crops now in the soil consist
mainly of potatoes, peas, carrots
and cabbages, according to Mr
Frarapton. When asked as to the
probable amount of the total damage
to the county, he replied that as
yet it was impossible to make an
estimate with accuracy.?Ntwa and
Courier.
The Cold Wave.
Record cold weather for Kingstree
and vicinity was scored when
at 7 o'clock Monday morning the
thermometer stood at 22 degrees.
The cold wave seems to have been
general throughout most of the
South Atlantic States. The lowest
temperature on record for the
month of March was recorded at
Charleston, and freezing temperatures
extended into Northern Florida.
This storm wave developed on
the East Gulf coast Saturday, where
it attained greatest intensity Sunday.
Boston suffered most severely,
although much suffering was caused
throughout the New England,Middle
and Western States.
Chronic Stomach Trouble Cured.
There is nothing more discouraging
than a chronic disorder of the
stomach. Is it not surprising that
many suffer for years with such an
ailment when a permanent cure is
within their reach and may be had
for a trifle? "About one year ago,"
says P H Beck, of Wakelee, Mich,
"I bought a package of Chamberlain's
Tablets, and since using them
I have felt perfectly well. I had
previously used any number of
different medicines, but none of
them were of any lasting benefit."

SCHEME DIDN'T WORK.
Fowls Learn to Lay White Eggs,
Lay Down and Died.
Penn Yan, N Y, February 25: ?
John B Cramer, president of the
board of education, had a fine flock
of chickens he wanted to sell. He
was told by a prospective purchaser,
who looked at some of the eggs,
tKof fViov wprp nnf whit** pnmiirh
vuab VUV. j V* V?v "W ? ? ? ? ?a ..
for the New York market, to which
he was shipping.
A friend advised him chat small
doses of peroxide of hydrogen fed
in water or mash would aid his hens
to produce eggs of the proper degree
of whiteness. He tried the
experiment and the eggs grew
whiter, but not fast enough to suit
him. He then increased the doses,
but his hens soon stopped laying
eggs of any color, and a week ago
one of them died. Today all that
was left of his flock was one old
rooster.
