Write and , - 'inorma nn in Since the formation of this govern ment, South Carolina has had 35 repre sentatives in the United States senate. Some of these names are illustrious in national history as well as beloved an.i revered at home, t here are eight of this number who died m office: John Ewing Calhoun, John Gmllard, John C. Calhoun, Frank lin H. Elmore, Andrew P. Butler, Josiah J. Evans, Joseph H. Earle and Asbury John Gaillard served longer than anv other senator from the state, nearly years continuously. Franklin IT Flmnvr, ,t,i . i. tiiuiulC ivjiu autueeufu John C. Calhoun, served but 23 days before his death. Among those senators who also serv ed the state as governor are Charles Pinckney, John Taylor, S. D. Miller. George McDuffie, J. H. Hammond. Wade Hampton and B. R. Tillman. There were several senators who re signed. In the -early days of the re public it seemed to be the proper thing for a senator to resign before his term expired. Those who from one cause or another resigned are Pierce Butler (twice), John Hunter, Charles Pinck ney, Thomas Sumter, John Taylor, Robert Y. Hayne, Stephen D. Miller. John C. Calhoun, D. E. Huger, William C. Preston, George MeDuffie, R. B. Rhett, James Chestnut, Jr., and James H. Hammond. . Some resigned to be come governor. Mr. Calhoun resign ed to become vice-president. The largest number of senators in any one year was in 1850. Calhoun died March 3i; Elmore died May 20; Barnwell was appointed June 4, and was succeeded by Rhett December 18. Judge A. P. Butler was the junior sena tor who was the contemporary of those senators in that year. There wore from the beginning two senators. Pierce Butler was allotted the four year term and Ralph Izard the six-year term. At the expiration of the four-year term it too became a six-year term. This was in order to keep the two offices from being co terminal. Pierce Butler served seven years and resigned. Later he served two years and resigned again. William Smith served seven years. Later he served five years. John C. Calhoun served 10 years and resigned. His successor af ter two years service resigned and Calhoun was returned to his old seat serving five years until his death. These are the only cases of senators being returned after once retiring from the senate. Senator Tillman today occupies the scat once held by Pierce Butler; and Senator Latimer succeeded to the chair of Ralph Izard. Following is the list of senators who succeeded Pierce Butler: Pierce Butler, service commenced March 4, 1789; re-elected, 1793; resign ed 1796. John Hunter, December 8, 179G, re sign 1798.

The South Carolina senators in the confederate congress were James L. Orr, of Anderson, and Robert W. Barn well, of Beaufort. They were commissioned December 20, lfiGi, and served until the dis solution of' the confederacy. The State. Hickory Supply Closely Watched. Automobile and carriage manufact urers, along with the men of the allied vehicle industries, are giving very se rious consideration to the question of the future supply ef hickory timber. This wood, which is one of the most important of all woods, since no satis factory substitute for it has been found plays a more important part among the commercial timbers than many people realize. For automobile and carriage wheels, where strength, toughness, and re siliency are essential qualities, no oth er wood has been found in this country that will take the place of hickory. Manufacturers say that no steel or wire spoke has yet been found that will withstand the wear and tear of the hickory spoke and for this reason the welfare of the vehicle industry seems dependent upon the conservation of the hickory supply. Three of the largest associations of hickory users in the country, the Na tional Wagon Manufacturers' Associa tion of America, the Carriage Builders' National Association, and the National Hickory Association have completed a series of co-operative tests with the , United States Forest Service, and the trade considers the results highly im portant. The tests covered a close study of the properties of different woods used in vehicles and implements, supplemented by mechanical tests to ascertain the relative strength of differ ent woods and different forms of con struction and to test the accuracy of the present system of grading. In a report of the tests made by II. B. Holroyd, forest assistant, and H. S. Betts, engineer in timber tests, of the' Forest Service, the fact is brought out that there is an error of over 50 per cent in the grading of vehicle stock, due largely to the prejudice of the manufacturers against the use of reel hickory.

By bringing this iact to the attention of the manufacturers, it is hoped that much of the hickory which was formerly left as waste in tlie woods will be utilized by the trade and thus prolong the rapidly disappearing supply of hick ory. Such practical results as are given jj in the report, which a letter to the-, Forest Service at Washington will se cure free for any one who wishes it, show conclusively the value of such studies in solving problems connected with the grading of stock, the utiliza tion of new for old woods, and the con serving of our future supply of timber. The supply of good hickory in the United States is known to be very limited. The cut last year for lumber was a little less than 150 million feet, and it is estimated an even greater amount was used for automobile and carriage wheels, axle caps, gears, axles, poles, single trees and neck yokes, and it is figured that at the present rate of cutting the supply will last about 15 years. Reports are made from time to time of the discovery of suitable substitutes for hickory in foreign countries. The two woods which come nearest to hav ing the quality of the hickory seem to be one of the eucalyptus and the crow foot elm, both of Australia. Only time will tell whether these woods will prove satisfactory substitutes. In the meanwhile, American hickory users will be obliged to conserve the pres ent supply and take steps to guaran tee a future supply by encouraging private planting of tlie tree, whose wood is becoming more precious each year. ,IT DOLLS THE BUSINESS.
