MusT PLANT MORE GRAIN.

Rome Tribune: Farmers have watch
ed with keenest interest the tremen-
dous rise in grains. 1t is a matter that
vitality affects them. Those who have
raised corn and wheat sufficient to
meet their own needs, can feel pardon
able pride in the wisdom that led them
to plant for such purpose. Those
who must buy find themselves con-
fronted with a serious proposition.
Wheat seems destined to go to SIPS;
corn is worth nearly 81 and will GER
tainly go to those figures. Speculation
perhaps has something to do with high
prices, but not much. The corn crop
especially is short in every part of the
United States. Wheat is partially so,
and the shortage in corn largely in
creases the demand for wheat. SO
there is the situation. Is it too late
TO SOW. wheat for 1902? If not. cannot
the farmers put in at least a few acres
TO supplement the short corn crop?
Wheat planted now can be used as
feed for horses and mules in May. This
will save many thousand bushels of
corn. Wheat is nutritious for stock.
II is a healthy food supply for them.
BY the last of June or early in July
II is ready to be used for breadstuffs.
This Is an opportunity for Georgia
farmers which they should grasp. Will
thew do #?

M'SWEENEY MUST ACT.
CANNOT SHIR< UNPLEASANT DIS
PENSARY DUTIES.

Attorney General Bellinger Tells
Him That He Alone Can Carry
Out Certain Provisions of the Dis
pensary Lnw-Has Been Letting
Dispensary Board Exercise This
Authority-A Move on Foot to
Have south Carolina Represented
ut the worlds Fair at st. Louis.
men in high places are not averse to
having authority given them, yet Gov
McSweeny is not delighted with the
opinion OF Attorney General Bellinger
declaring that the Board of Directors
of the Dispensary has for many months
been exercising powers that belong only
to the governor. His excellency has
been very willing to quietly get out
of touch with South Cardinals insti-
tuition that has been loaded with trou-
bic for so many of her statesmen. He
has let the directors take one duty,
then another off his hands, till for some
time the name of the governor has not
been coupled with the dispensary-and
that was what he wished. Now, the
Attorney General comes along, and in
an opinion to the directors tells them
they have been usurping the governor
authority, that there is but one execu-
tive officer in the state government.
The board has no power to give orders
to constables or take any action as to
the enforcement of the law; nor can
it return TO the owners, any liquor IL
legally seized and sent in by constables.
The pOVprnOr O1llU ran
The Attorney General says that the
law gives the governor authority to
employ as many constables as he
deems necessary to enforce the dis
pensary act, and suggests" that it
is the duty of the chief executive to
carry out the provisions of the law.
Attorney General Bellinger will next
year be a candidate for Congress in
the district now represented by Tai
bert.
An effort will probably be made to
get the Legislature that meets next
month to make provision for repre-
| senting South Carolina at the ST. Louis
| fair. Since the State Department of
| Agriculture was abolished ten years
| ago, South Carolina has taken no part
in any Industrial picture, nor have any
of her natural advantages been adver-
| tised in the West and Northwest. When
| inquiries came about soil, climate, etc,
/ there is none to answer No data on
these subjects has been prepared since
the demise of the department, and the
state has undoubtedly suffered. Colo
MES have come from the West and set
/ tied on both sides of us--North Caro-
/ lima and Georgia-but South Carolina
was unknown to them.
! 1t is thought that if the Legislature
will at the next session make some
provision for an exhibit at ST. Louis
and will put the work in charge of a
| competent person, a good start in the
| collection of an exhibit can be made
when the Charleston Exposition closes
| The Legislature will hardly get to
the point of providing for a state
| building, although numbers of East
ern and Western states have their
! buildings at Charleston. Such a Dis
| play OF enterprise would be a great
card to play in the West, whose hardy
people are wanted in this section.

SHAKERS DESERT CAMDEN.

Brunswick, Ca, Dec. 13.-The big
cypress mills of the Taylor-Cook Com
pany have been started up again, and
under the direction of Messrs. o. N,
and w. S. Taylor are turning out
thousands of feet of cypress daily. The
Taylor Short Line, a branch of the
Brunswick and Birmingham, recently
built to bring timber off the Bruins
wick and Birmingham to the mills,
is now doing good service.
The Shakers that have formed the
colony at White Oak, Camden county,
have all returned to their homes in
Union Village, Ohio, and left their pos
sessions in this section in charge of Mr..
Theodore Clark, who for number of
years has been their agent in Glynn.
The Shakers have some magnificent
holdings in Camden, including a re-
Gently completed house, that cost them
over $4,000 and the disposition they
will make of this and their other prop
erty in the future is an interesting
question They will either develop 1t
themselves or have ii developed for
the benefit of the community, but the
people in this section prefer that the
Shakers themselves return, as they
make exceptionally good citizens and
are desirable in any community.
