pointed at Meeting Of Coun-
ty Presidents of Cotton As

this w eek--Plan Outlined
for Buying Weak Cotton
off Market.

"At called meeting OF the
county presidents Of the South
Carolina division of the South
ern Cotton Association, held in
Columbia on September 18th
the conditions and prospects
Of the association were freely
discussed. Each county presi-
dent was asked co report on con-
ditions and prospects in his
county, and the average of the
reports made was that the State
would produce 80 per cent of
last years crop. The ten cents
minimum, as established by the
Hot Springs convention, was
unanimously endorsed. The con-
.dition of the associa ion in South
Carolina was far from satislac.
tory, but it was the general be
lief that campaign pushing
the better organization of the
State would result in a more
thorough organization thaa we
have had in the past. 1t was be.
lieved that South Carolina far
mers are willing to stand by the
ten cents minimum. aud that
little cotton will be placed on
the market under that price.
"Ihe most important matter
for cons. Iteration presented to
the meeting was the organiza
ton of a holding company ior
retiring cotton offered for sale
under the minimum price, as
was recommended by the execu
tive committee in session at
Hot Springs. The undersigned
com nittee was appointed to
make this report to the press of
the proceedings Of the meeting
and was appointed permanent
committee to get up South Car
olina's part of the capital stock
OF the company.

consisting of f. ID. Smith. S. A.

are to be organized into a State
company and the different State
companies into q national COM
pany; with a central Office for
each State company and one
central office for the national
company. 1t was the sense of
this meeting that, if this com.
pany was ready to begin opera,
tions at an early date. the price
of cotton could readily be car
ried cent higher, or up to the
ten-cents minimum asked. If
this company should 60 on the
market at present and buy cot.
ton at nine cents per POUND and
the price should advance within
80 days to ten cents, there
would be pofit of So per bale
to the stockholders of. said com.
pany;, giving the stockholders
one hundred per cent. dividend
on the money invested.
"No subscription made 10 the
company is to be binding until
the full ten million dollar bone
fida subscriptions shall have been
secured. 1t is the sense of this
meeting that the company shall
not, begin operation until the
ten million dollars shall have
been paid in full and deposited
in the county banks where COL
lected. Of course, it is distinct
ly understood that each and every
one of the subscribers for stock
who pays in the money, or cot
ton, gets certificate for the
number Of shares subscribed for.
The liability OF each subscriber
to this stock will be limited by
the charter to the amount sub
scribed.. The undersigned com
mittee, after fully discussing
this plan, heartily approves and
believes that such a plan will be
necessary TO fix and maintain a
staple price for cotton. 1t un-
hesitatingly recommends it to be
the people of the State, believ-
ing it TO be practical and feast

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6--Secretary Of
the Navy Bonaparte, in mis- annual re-
port, suggests the appointment of a
commission, to consist of three or
more former Secretaries of the Navy
and two or more members of the Com
mittee on Naval Affairs of each OF the
houses Of Congress, under the presi-
dency of the Secretary of the Navy at
the time, to take up and perfect a plan
for a complete reorganization of the
Navy Department.
The plan that he recommends is that
the work of the department be divided
in four sections, one under the immedi-
ate direction of the Secretary, another
under the Assistant Secretary and the
remaining two under officers OF flag
rank OF the latter sections, one should
be intrusted with the duties now per-
formed by the Bureaus of Yards and
Docks, Equipment Construction and
Repair, Steam Engineering and Ord
nance. The other chief of section

CALLS FOR COAL

The British tramp steamship Black

here yesterday at noon, el route from
Gray's harbor to Freemantle, Austria
lia via Newcastle, putting in here for
coal. She left Gray's Harbor Novem-
Der 30, stopping at Mccormick to load
more lumber, having aboard 100000
feet. Because of the lumber taking up
so much space she could carry very
little coal and the captain planned to
stop here for fuel and to put in al New
castle for the same reason
While leaving Mccormick the steam
ship went aground but went out with
the tide. Captain Sherbourne was once

should be intrusted with the direction
of the navy as an organized and fight
ing force, his province being broader
than the present Chief Of the Bureau
of Navigation. In explanation of his
plan, Secretary Bonaparte says:
"The present duties of the Bureaus
of Ordnance and Supplies and Accounts
are assigned, the former to the section
having essentially to do with ships,
the latter to the section having to do
especially with men. 1t is fully recog-
nized that this arrangement is not
strictly logical, but some symmetry of
theory must be sacrificed for practical
advantages"

EXPERIMENT WORK.
Two Demonstrations Relates 10
Potash and the other to Texas
Seed Poistoes.

49,
College Station, Tex. Dec. 49,
Mr.. W. 5. Hoskins, superinten-
dent Of the Troupe subexperiment
station, was here few days ago
in consultation with Prof. Il. J.
Kyle of the horticultural depart
ment in regard to new lines OF ex-
pertinent TO be taken up next year.
He has now rounded up the work
Of the past year and bulletin will
soon be issued showing the results
obtained. As a result of the past
year work two facts OF impor-
lance to truck growers have be-
come clear. The first is that the
potash in the ordinary commercial
fertilizer is not only Of no Use
whatever to tomatoes and potatoes
in the sandy soils of East Texas,
but il is in some cases an absolute
detriment to those crops. This
fact had been observed and pub
lished in bulletin form last year,
and this years crop confirms the
correctness of the former conclu-
sion. The same results were OBJ
tanned on the station farm at
Troupe and on a number of coop
erative test farms belonging to
private parties.
The other result obtained is that
Texas grown seed potatoes are bet
ter than Northern grown seed. 1t
has been found that the home
grown seed potatoes produce a bet
ter stand and larger yield, tho
they mature a little latter than the
Northern seed. The farmer, too,
must pay for the Northern grown
seed potatoes at the rate Of 81. so
per bushel, while by planting a
small patch of potatoes in the fall
he can grow his own seed at very
slight cost.
Thus the superiority Of another
Texas product is demonstrated as
a result OF the work Of the expert
ment stations. II was recently
demonstrated by careful chemical
analysis that Texas salt is as good
as Michigan salt, or even better.
Prof. Bennett has proven that the
large boil Texas cotton is superior
to any imported varieties and that
every farmer can select his own
seed. In like manner the State
chemist has shown that Texas cot
ton seed has a larger percentage Of
oil than the seed grown in other
states.
