600 bushels of the remainder of the es-
timated crop of 40, 600, 900 bushels will
have to be set aside; 1000, 600 bushels

farmers $4,000, 900 bushels to sell. At
Duluth, the receipts have averaged up

only IS or 80 per cent of the higher.
The Duluth receipts, have been dupli-
Gated little by about 1900. 600 bushels
of wheat that were shipped to Duluth
from Minneapolis, and there has been
similar but lesser duplication be-
tween Duluth and Chicago. The in
spector says that southern Minnesota
and South Dakota farmers ought not to
seed from their own this years crop.
Southern parts of the state and South
Dakota should go to Iowa and Nebras-

gions to North Dakota and northern
Minnesota. The acreage in need of
new seed is not less than 5000, 600
acres.

The gates Of the English Ian
guage, or in other words, the. die
tionaries, should be open for the
admission of the word bust;
"Bust" is a first rate sturdy, vlgor
Gus word full and firm with Il
meaning of its own. "Bust" has
ceased to be slang for burst. Their
meanings are diStinctively differ
ent. To illustrate, The "syndi
cate bursted," has foolish sound
but The syndicated busted" ;s be-
yond criticism" Sixteen to one
or bu:l" is good but "Sixteen to
one or burst" is execrable. On
the contrary "The sewer pipe
busted" is bad and the utility of
"bust' as applied to physical oh
jects is instantly vindicated.-

The word is already in the die.

ing extended: as to the suggestion.
we favor its use; also the admis

There has been much specula
iOn as 10 when CongressmaE-elect
JAS. Norton would resign his posi-
ton as Comptroller General and
who would succeed him. Mr..
Norton has recently said that he
will not tender his resignation
until he holds a commission as
az Congressman. The State board
OF canvassers meets today, nut has
fifteen days in which to issue the
certificate of election, so we will
probably not know who will be
our next Comptroller General for
some time. 1t seems pretty
certain that Auditor Epton, of
opartanburg, will be named by
Gov. Ellerbe to succeed Mr.. Nor
