THE PRICE OF COTTON.

Lancaster's cotton receipts
thus far this season are somewhat
larger than they were this tiTi c
last year, Notwithstanding the
conceded fact that the present
crop is from two to three weeks
later than the crop of 1906 The
logical inference from the in
creased receipts is that there is
either more OF what is known AS
"distress cotton" this year than
last or that some farmers are
not standing by their organiza-
lions, the Cotton Growers A s.
ISOLATION and the Farmers I'm
ION.
OF course as long as cotton is
rushed on the market better
prices need not be looked for.
There is no question about the
fact that the farmers can control
this matter if they will but act
together. In strong editorial
headed "Cotton Growers, Stand
Firm |" the News and Courier
urges the farmers 10 be loyal to
their organizations. II says:
If the growers are to realize
the value of their crop this year.
they have, in our opinion, the
hardest struggle before them
that they have had for a long
time. The farmers must make
themselves felt, they must obey
the instructions Of The Southern
Cotton Association and the Far
mers' Union by Withholding cot.

troll of the market will pass alb

AN ORGANIZATION OF HOUSE
KEEPERS SUGGESTED.

Mrs. Mcdowell, editor Of the
Ninety-Six Star, the only jour
nal in South Carolina edited by
a woman, though the comm on
wealth would no doubt be better
off were there more petticoat
pencil pushers, is advocating
the organization of housekeep-
ers' protective association in the
State. In the last issue of the
Star Mrs. Mcdowell says:
Advices from all parts of the
state show that the housewives
are face to face with the annual
problem Of deserted kitchens ana
wash-tubs. A pitiful wall, that
borders on dispair, must 90 up
from an army of housewives
every year, when the cotton
picking season is on, or it is
then that Sarah and Jane turn
rom the menisl service of kitch
en- and tub and re pond to the
"call OF the field" We can hard
ly blame them for 50 doing,
since there is moe money in it
and a change Of scene, which
appeals to their natures, bat
must the housewife have no re-
dress from this yearly vexation2
Must she 20 on from year to year
and submit to such unbnsiness-
like principles IN her domestic
arrangements? We believe the
time has come for the women of
South Carolina TO organize n
"Housekeepers' Pro ective AS,
sociation." Through organization
they can form rules and reguls-
tions that will effect the servant
problem" and we believe eventu-
lily regulate ii. Such ali organiza-
ton, we believe, would, accom-
plish as much for the house-keep-
ers as the Farmers Union has
accomplished for the farmers.
This is certainly a day of or
ganizations,aud it such an oue as
suggested by Mrs. Mcdowell can
solve and regulate the perplexing
and annoying servant problem,
by all means let us have it.

If all the pupils now starring to
