The Yorkville Enquirer notes the
very interesting fact that the chicken
and pig industry of that county is
about half as valuable as the net pro-
fits on the cotton crop, not counting
the value of the chickens and eggs
consumed on the farm. There is no
telling how rich the people of our State
would be if they would only take care
of the small industries.

After delivering this, the chairman
read the announcement, which has been
prepared by the commission in ad-
vance. It was as follows:
"Acceding to the suggestion just
made by counsel, that an interval of
time be taken for the preparation of
documentary evidence and for possible
agreement as to certain facts and
figures which would forward the work
of the commission, the commission
desires to express the hope that an
effort will be made by the parties to
come to an agreement upon nearly
al, if not all, the matters now en-
controversy, and that they will adopt
the suggestion heretofore made by the
commission to coonsel on beth sides,
that we aid them in such 81! effort by
our conciliatory Offices. It seeuls to
us that many of the conditions COM
planned of-and whica have oeen the
subject and study our examination
might be better reme3ied by the
parties to the controversy approach
Ing the subject in u proper spirit and
with the purpose OF fairly adjusting
them. We hope, gentlemen, that the
interval Of time to be granted may be
availed Of with this end in view. Of
course, in the meantime, we shall pro-
ceed with the work before us as we
have begun it, =
