CHANGES PLA*
I Will Help More Farmers
The South Carolina Co-operativ<
Livestock Association finds it noces
f: sary to change its plan of organiza
k' tion so that the great mass of lively
stock men of the state can beeonu
I members hnd be benefitted instead oJ
a ;comparatively small number; rt1
t'. would have been the case under its
f i original plan.
I* In changing to a non-stock asso
I;- ciation it feels sure of accomplishing
I the good that the association ;s being
J- organized for. With a capital stock
organization only those who have
! money to tie up in stock at $100 a
F share could become members. In that
f case the small livestock man who
f needs the help of the association most
I would have been left out. Its present
I plan makes it possible for anyone int
terested in livestock to become a
member and receive the numerous
benefits to be had from co-operative
marketing of livestock.
Under its revised plan there is a
i | $10 membership fee. This entitles its
\ I members to all of its rights and priviu
leges. There will be a small commisfA'
sion of 3 per cent, deducted from
each sale. Funds accumulated in this
I way will be used for the maintenance
| and operation of the association. If
1 the end of the year there is a sur1
plus it will be distributed back to the
J members in proportion to the amount
I of business done for each during the
: year. This places it on a non-profit basis.
The co-operative marketing of livestock
will save the growers considerable
money that has been going
to the commission men. An outlet
such as the association purposes
will get for the farmer the best prices
| to be had. Information furnished in
regard [to all phases of the livestock
industny will be of great value. The
assista'/ice of the association will
stabibke the growing and marketing
of liwstock and place it on a sound
busiwss basis. The success of any
busiflcss is based on its marketing
andMits producing end. The South

WAR ROMANCE ENDS IN COURT '
Savannah, Ga., May 1.?The wreck
of a World War romance in France ^
was disclosed in police court today .
when Mrs. Marie Pickard, a French (
woman, was arraigned on a charge
of assault and battery upon a young
woman of Savannah. The French
.?
woman told her story through an in- ^
terpreter, and though she was scnoneod
to sixty days in jail, Recorder ,
Scnwarz immediately suspended sin- ^
tetice with the understanding that ,
Mrs. Pickard would not further molest
the young woman she had attack.
ed- . !
According to the testimony in the ^
case, W. D. Adams, who had been
keeping company with the young ^
woman attacked and who had sworn <
out the warrant for Mrs. Pickard's
arrest, was a soldier in France in (
1920.
He met, wcoed and won Mrs. Pickard,
whose husband, had left her an
estate of a million francs. They were
to be mnrircd r.r.d live in her home in .
Prance as soon aa.be was discharged
from the army. Having gained possession
of her money, according to
Mrs. Pickard's testimony he came to ?
the United States and a baby was
born to his sweetheart in France. His
letters ceased to come and Mrs. Pickard
in desperation came in search of
him. She brought his letters with her, ^
and a birth certificate of her child, j
He had been discharged from the ar- j
my, but he was finally located in Sa j
vannnh. She had spent all her money, ,
pawned her jewels and was at work ,
.n a canning factory when she learn- ^
ed that Adams was paying attention
to the young woman. She met her in j
a store and pounced upon her. The (
young woman was rescued by other r
customers. t
Letters alleged to have been writ- t
ten by Adams, which tendered to
support Mrs. Pickard's statement,were j
presented in court today. Adams denied
their authenticity. Judge c
Schwarz immediately compared the s
writing with the signature on the ?
warrant and found the signatures t
identical.
The case promptly came to an end.
The woman was sentenced, the sentence
suspended, and Recorder j
Schwarz ordered Adams out of his j
sight. e

THIRTEEN YEARS j
Charleston, May 1.?That the body j Sa
of Sarmicca Conceppo, an Italian, has' ed
been.held by an undertaker at Laurin- j Pa

OUND DOGS SAVE MAN FROM
DEATH AT SNAKES' FANGS :
Cohuta, Ga., May 1.?His two
und dogs saved McKinley Shults, '
rmer, from death at the fangs of
pair of large copper head snakes j
iturday morning.
Reaching the end of a furrow, Mr. .
mlts left his plow to rest a few
Dments in the shade of the wood- '
nd that borders the field of M. Z.
hittman, near this place. His dogs ,
d been playing around the field as
worked and followed him.
Seating himself on a log, the farm- V
began idly poking about the underush
with a pole when suddenly it .
is wrenched from his hands and he
is startled by a duet of enraged '
sses almost at his feet.
In a trice a pair of snakes, enraged
the disturbance, glided out of the
ass. The man leaped backward ,
am his seat, falling at full length
the ground, dazed by surprise and ^
e shock of his fall. Before the madned
reptiles could reach him the
o dogs rushed rnto the attack,
owling and snapping at the glid- j
? bodies and diverting their on- ,
LUght. ,
Regaining possession of himself in a L
>mont, Mr. Schults sprang from the
ound and recovered his pole, killing ^
th of the snakes. Both measure sev- ^
feet in length and were well devel- t
