Some animals are condemned out
right upon the ante mortem inspection.
For instance, all hogs which
v plainly show that they are affected
with either hog cholera or swine
plague are marked "US Condemned.''
Further, if a hog is one of a lot in
which there are symptoms of hog
cholera or swine plague and the animal
has a temperature of 106 degrees
F. or higher, it is condemned.
All animals thus marked are destroyed.
They can not be taken into the
establishment to be slaughtered or
dressed, but must be disposed of in
if tanks so as to prevent their use for
food purposes. In case of doubt as
to the cause of the high temperature
the animal may be held under the in

MEAT INSPECTION.
How tke Government Inspects
Animals Before Slaughter. .
&
All farmers and others who raise
- . or handle cattle, sheep, hogs, or
goats which are marketed for food
' purposes should know something of
* the general rules under which the?
department conducts the inspection
of animals to be slaughtered.
When such animals are forwarded
to public stockyards or to establishments
where Federal meat inspection
is maintained they are- inspected
alive. This inspection is known as
the ante mortem inspection and is
done in the stockyards or in the
pens of the establishment. When
conducted in the public stockyards
^ **** mortem inspection is usual*
w b made at the scales when the ani"S
mals are weighed. The chief reqire^
ments for the disposal of animals
upon this inspection are as follows:
Those animals which do not plainly
ifrow, but are suspected of being
^affected with, any disease or condition
which may cause condemnation
in whole or in part at the time
of slaughter, are marked with a
serially-numbered metal tag which
" - - <? ?* ? n , it
bears the legend u 5 suspect.
All animals which are thus marked
as suspects are held apart and
slaughtered separately from other
animals, the only exception to- this
rule being those held for advanced
pregnancy or on account of having
recently given birth to young, and
which have not been exposed to any
infectious or contagious disease.
Such animals, together with their
young, may be released for breeds
ing or dairy purposes, and when so
* released they must be promptly removed
from the stockyards or prem.

spector's supervision for further examination
and taking of temperature.
Immature animals offered for
ante-mortem inspection at any of
the places specified in the regulation
are required to be condemned outright;
likewise all animals showing
symptoms of rabies, tetanus, milk
fever or railroad sickness.
Besides this ante-mortem inspection,
the carcasses are thoroughly
inspected at the lime of and after
siavghter, and the meat and products
are also inspected in the various
stages and processes of preparation.
j The losses caused through the condemnation
of animals which are un'
fit for food affects directly or indirectly
the price which the producer
receives for his live stock.
The purchasers of animals for
slaughter not infrequently trace diseased
shipments back to their origin
where disease is harbored, and thereafter
decline to take animals from
infected farms ana localities except
under an arrangement which will
insure them against loss. It therefore
behooyes the producer to use
every practicable means to keep his
heards and flocks free from disease
and to refrain from forwarding diseased
or suspicious animal to market.

FARMERS ARE MORE HOPEFUL.
| Big Change In Crop Prospects
For Williamsburg.
Several weeks ago there was a
, feeling prevalent among the farmers
of Williamsburg county that
there were poor prospects for crops.
A long, almost continuous spell of
wet weather in June kept farmers
out of their fields and the grass,
"General Green", as it is commonly
called hereabouts, was about to take
possession of tobacco, corn and cotton
and scarcely a farmer that we
consulted on the crop outlook appeared
to be hopeful. This was the
second attitude the mind of our
farmers had assumed, for prior to
the long wet spell, and before the
weeds and nut grass began to
flourish, they were exceedingly hopeful
of a bumper crop for 1915 at a
much reduced cost over preceding
years on account of a reduction in
the quantity of fertilizers used.
Within the past ten days or two
week the third attitude of the farmers
in this section is like unto the
first. The recent warm weather
with occasional rains has brought
all growing crops nearly up to standard
at this season. Tobacco which
was thought to be about 60 per
cent of a crop has jumped to 80 per
cent and practically the same may
be said of cotton and corn. Wheat,
wherever planted in the county has
been very satisfactory, and a small
per cent of Williamsburg farmers
who never before knew what it was
to eat bread from home-made flour

will k/t auit w vujuj ~..
perience this fall. Some of them
have raised enough wheat to supply
their home needs and have some to
spare. Tobacco in almost eyery section
is looking fine. It is large and
of a beautiful green color. Some
fear, however, that it will not turn
out well in quality, on account of
having taken on such a luxuriant
and rapid growth. But warehousemen
in this section who are keeping
close tab on every'field of tobacco
i say that they look for a good paying
quality if the farmers use proper
care and precaution in curing their
crop. As to cotton and corn, they
also have taken on a wonderful
change, and every prospect points to
a good yield. Hence, there is a
reason for the present hopeful attitude
of the farmers in this section.

Whose Duty Is It?
Editor County Record:?
May I have the privilege of calling
attention to a seeming nuisance
that frequently endangers the lives
of people?
A few days ago, while crossing
the steel bridge over Black river
west of Kingstree, my horse became
frightened at the tall willow trees
alongside the bridge swaying in the
breeze and came near jumping over
the railing into the river. I have
heard of other similar occurrences
lately. It seems that there is, or
should be, some officer whose business
it is to have such objects removed
from this place before neglect
causes destruction.
A Citizen of Greelyville.
Greelyville, July 12.
A FAIR WARNING.
One That Should Be Heeded by
Kingstree Residents.
Frequently the first sign of kidney
trouble is a slight ache or pain
in the loins. Neglect of this warning
makes the way easy for more
serious troubles?dropsy, gravel,
Bright's disease. Tis well to pay
attention to the first sign. Weak
kidneys generally grow weaker and
delay is often dangerous. Residents
of this locality place reliance in
Doan's Kidney pills. This tested
remedy has been used in kidney
