TORRENS LAND SYSTEM.
Such a Bill VIII he Introduced I'm the
South Carolina Legislature-Some
OF Its Provisions.

A special from Spartanburg TO the
Saturdays Charlotte Observer sayg:
"Spartanburg, s. c.. Dec. 16.--Eu-
delivered an address In this city on
the Torrens system OF registering
land titles. The address was made
at the Chamber of Commerce rooms
and there were many real estate men,
attorneys and legislators present. A
number had come from nearby cities
to hear this talk.
"Mr. Massie is one OF the best post
ed men in this country on this sys-
tenn Of registering the ownership of
real estate and has devoted much
thought to the method. He con-
vineed most OF those present that ID
was the best manner to. register land
and that 1t possessed many advan-
tages over the system that Is prae-
ticed now.
1T makes real estate more ready
asset and it may be disposed OF with
out requiring the buyer TO have the
title investigated, as the State guar
antees all titles registered under this
plan.
"A number OF those present asked
Mr.. Massie many questions about this
system, all of which he answered
clearly. 1t will require some years
before the people would become ac-
eustomed to registering their prop
erty under the new system and until
then no perceptible change would be
noted. This system is now in vogue
In eight States and III. K Osborne.
Representative TO the State Legisla-
ture will introduce bill for the es-
tablishment in this State OF such q
system. Many OF the State legisla-
tors are giving the matter much
thought and State Senator III. B.
Carlisle viii also be instrumental In
this act

CONSUMERS HAVE REMEDY.


The Washington Correspondence
New York Tribune says: The Sec
retary Of Agriculture places the re-
sponsIbility for the high cost OF living
squareiy on the middIemen. whose
operations as distributors he finds
add approximately 100 per cent TO
the price Of farm products before
they pass into the hands OF the ulti-
mate consumer. Following the Con-
gressionai inquiry OF last year into
the high cost OF living, Secretary
Wilson caused an investigation 10 be
made with a view TO determining
how far the farmer profited from
the enhanced cost to the consumer
OF his products, and, having COM
pleted his inquiry, he now asks:
why do not consumers buy direct
from the farmers?"
To show the adyisability OF direct
trade between the farmer and the
consumer the Secretary cites the
farm price and the retail price OF a
variety Of commodities, one OF the
most striking of which is potatoes.
ne dsS6Its LuaL city consumers pat0
last year from so to rs cents a bush
e1, and often more for potatoes, while
the farmers sometimes received only
20 cents, and in many localities
where there was an over-production
as little as nine cents a bushel. Mr..
Wilson says the method he proposes
has already made considerable head
way in Great Britain, where 1t has
proved entirely practicable.
Organize cooperative purchasing
associations, buy your farm products
direct from the farmer, and in car
load lots, and attend to the distribu-
ton yourselves, is the admonition Of
Secretary Wilson to those to whom
the increased cost of living is prov
ing a hardship. Whether or not a
feasible method OF obtaining milk
direct from the farmer can be de-
vised, the Secretary does not say, but
he does point out that the farmer
rarely receives more than half the
price the consumer pays for that
comm modity-which, by the way, Is
also true of eggs and a number of
other things.
