AND THERE IS NO REMEDY.

Although it Is a fact not generally
realized, railroad discrimination costs
the cotton growers Of South Carolina
something like $5OO,OOO year."
This statement was made in the pres
ence of the reporter a few days ago by
a local cotton dealer, who is we'll up in
his business. He spoke of the abuse in
a matter Of fact way that indicated
the utter hopelessness, in his estima-
ton, of possible remedy, and he would
have probably not taken the trouble to
explain the details had not the reporter
asked:
How do you make that out?"
Why" he explained, "by bringing
Western cotton here in competition
with the cotton grown in this section
and laying it down at price that
makes it to the advantage Of the local
mills to buy it instead Of the home
product"
But do the railroads really do that,
and if so, how can they afford it?' the
reporter asked.
ut is an easy proposition" the cot
ton dealer replied. 1.-THE Southern rail-
road is the principal sinner. Alabama
and Mississippi cotton, collected at the
ports ready for shipment abroad, would
seem to be out of reach Of the railroads
and offer no chance for freight charges.
That Is the trouble. Calculating that
half price is better than nothing, the
Southern railroad hauls that cotton to
the South Carolina mills at a less rate
than it will deliver cotton from along
it's lines in this state. Our growers are
thus robbed of all the advantage that
they are presumed to have by reason of
their proximity to the local mills"
But would think" suggested the
reporter, "that the railroad commission
would prevent such unfair business as
that"
"You would?" and the cotton buyer
smned cynically at the idea that any
body should be so innocent as to think
that the railroad commission would
ever try to prevent the railroads from
doing anything that these railroads
should find it to their interest to do.

upon the adoption of their recommen-
CLOVER.

The people of this section have, dur
ing the past few years, paid more at
tention to forage crops than at any
time since the war, and they have a
better appreciation Of the value of
such crops.
Crab grass, which was formerly al
lowed to go to waste has, of late, been
receiving more intelligent attention,
and means grass, which was at one
time regarded as public nuisance, has,
in the opinion Of many experimenters,
developed into hay grass Of great val
ue. So it is with many other grasses
that used to be in the way; but still our
part of the country has not been able
to settle on a standard forage crop of
unquestioned superiority.
Peavines have received a faithful
trial at the hands Of many intelligent
farmers; but the result has not been
generally satisfactory. A good crop Of
peavines, properly cured, makes the
cheapest and best hay in the world;
but the uncertain weather conditions
Of our fall seasons, with a tendency to
drouth, renders the crop unreliable. 1t
hardly fills the bill.
Glover Is the great forage crop of the
more prosperous agricultural sections
to the north of us, and there is reason
to believe that it can be introduced
with advantage in this section. 1t is
true that many farmers in York couIf-
ty have had unsatisfactory experiences
with clover; but it is also true that
others have found 1t to come up to ev-
cry reasonable requirement. There are
those who hold that If given proper at
tention and fed intelligently, clover is
superior to any other forage crop that
can be grown, and the position that
this crop holds in sections where it re-
ceives proper attention, seems to bear
out this holding.
Somehow, we do not believe that
clover has ever had a fair showing in
York county except at the hands Of a
comparatively few individuals; but we
do believe that If it should get the at
tention to which it is entitled, 1t would
eventually become a standard crop of
greater value than any forage crop
that has yet been more or less extern
sively grown here.
