Ijivo <->f J the State and aro subject to n fine of $10, ono half of which goes to the informer. Yesterday afternoon Solicitor Thurmond and J udgo Pnrdy, while in the suburbs, not.ioi'd a largo uumbcr of young men shooting. The attention of other* wan called to the matter and >\? th? I practice is general all over the State there was a request that the act, which was passed in 1902, be published ko that those ignorant ol'the law might know the result of tlie violation. It is as follows : "Section 501. It shall net ho lawful for any parson in this State to wantonly shoot or entrap lor the purpose of killing or in any | other manner destroy any bird I wiujst- principal iooa j.s insects or I bo take or destroy tlio eggs or young of any of the species or varieties of birds who are protected by the provisions of thin section, comprising all the species and varieties of birds represented by the several families of huts, whip-poor-wills, tly-catch-' ors, threshers, warbles, finches, larks, orioles, nuthatches, woodpeckers, humming birds, blue birds I and all ot.hor srn-nino nml vn?!oiin? - * - J?-. ?-.vo ? anvuur of land birds, whether great or j small, <>f every description, regarded us harmless in their habits, and whoso flesh ih unfit for food, including the turkey buzzard, but excluding the jackdaw, crow, eagle, hawk and owls, which prey upon other birds."

Tho Scribes and Pharisees brought unto Jesus a woman, and he said ' unto them: 'MR* t lint is without j Hiii uinotii? you, let hill) first east a stone at her." And they which linn I'd it, Vicing convicted by their i own consnenci', wont out one liy one. beginning at the eldest, even unto the last; and Jesus was left , alone, and the woman standing in the midst. When Jesus saw none hut the woman he said unto her, woman, where arts those thine aceiuorsf hath no man condemned thee? She said no man. Lord. And I .IctMH said, ii?iither do I condemn t thro; and sin no more. He that ' followeth mo shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light i of life.

'J lip wa\ to handle homI cotton is to have ;i good cotton house itiid utore the cotton several weeks before ginning. This will give tho l;,>? ~ I iiiut uu luiisii growing, uot(ton lint grows from tlio beed unci not 1'iODi lh" boll. Tbo growth of the lint luir^tB tlio boll open ,n<l it ri'([uiroH several days iiftor the opening l'or the lint to roach its full growth. This period tlt;peu'ls very much upon the weather, if your cotton is left in tbe field. Picking docs not stop this growth jOf the lint, but ginning does, hence I cotton should never be ginned for several days alter it is picked. I This linmatuie lint very greatly damages tho quality of tbe staple. It also lossens the quantity of the I lint in proportion to tho seed. Cotton that is stored in a cotton house lor n short timo will nuiko a hotter sample yield more lint for u liven amount of seod cotton. Tho {'availing custom of rushing tho cotton from iho field to the fzin cnubBF. a great loss in tho yield of the crop, anil also in tlio quality of tin staple and consequently in tho price it brings. As soon as our 'ariners lOtilizo this lact and return to the g< od old custom of having cotton houses on our farms the l?etnr lor th"in. Especially should the picking ol cracked bolls he sbsolutoly prohibited. Better give the lint time t<? get grown befor<> picking if you can. If you can not and will not do this, give it time I to do so IWoro it is ginned. Tl e practice of picking as fast as it. opens and of ginning an fast a* it in picked, may enaMn you To m il a few pounds of water in a bale, but it Costa you a groat deal more than this water brings, to say nothing oi the hotiosty ,of the traiiHactioii. If you doubt the truthfulness of the above reasoning all we ask of you i is that jon make a fair trial of it. Pick fifteen hundred pounds and carry it at once to the gin, and from , ho ^in to the market. Tako an* J other fifteen hundred pounds in (ho namo condition, put in your -jotton honjo lor three or lour j weeks, and then gin and market it and *.<o which ]>ays yon the bettor. , We havo had a few farmers try this j 'xperiment and they havo heen hoth surprised and gratified at tin? net returns trom the use of the j cotton liotiso.
