Anderson, S. c., Nov. 2-The Chi
nese revolution is having serious
effect on the cotton mill Industry OF
the Southern states. according to
James d Hammell, president OF sew
erai OF the largest mills in South
Carolina and member OF the exeeu,
/! tive committee OF the American Cot
ton Manufacturers association.
In a statement Issued by Mr.. Ham.
NELL today he points out that many
lof the Southern mills manufacture
goods solely for export 10 Caina and
scores OF orders already have been
cancelled because of the Chinese
war. He estimates that fully thirty
mills in South Carolina alone are de
pendent on the Chinese trade.
Unless a speedy settlement OF the
revolution is reached. said Mr.. Ham
nell, serious consequences are fear
ed for both the Southern manufacture
ers who supply the trade and the cot
ton producer of the South This fa.l
indications were for a large trade
from China, but as a result of the
revolution the demand for cloth has
been almost entirely cut of, with a
disposition in evidence to cancel con
tracts thar are now on the books Of
the mills.

Wants Pension Office Beauty Restored

n ENSION COMMISSIONER JAMES
I l.. DAVENPORT has an eye to the
artistic, and as much as it is possible
for that genial gentleman to be dis
gruntled. is nightly gr1eved over the
fact tina the pension office does not
look as pretty as 1t ought to, and
nothing like as pretty as it might.
Commissioner Davenport says that the
pension Office ought to be one OF the
show places in Washington. and there
was a time when this was true. Now
it is half-flled up with the desks, file
cases and literature of the Indian Of
fee, which really hasn't any business
there. In fact, the great court OF the
pension Office, which until the new
government printing Office was con-
structed was the largest building in
the world, all under one roof, looks
more like a clutter closet so far as
the main floor is concerned, than like
a decent, respectable public building.
The great interior court is surround
ed by the various Offices which rise
tier on tier to the great glass ceiling,
with the rows OF handsomely n
mented balconies opening upon the
court. In the cente of the court Is a
beautiful fountain, and 1t used to be
that exquisite little models Of the
Monitor and the Merrimac chased
each other around and around in this
fountain. There are a number OK

diers in the Philippines, 24.56 cents,
and the native soldiers in the Philip
pines, 14.57. Even the Philippine Is
lands shows a greater average cost
per diem per man. The report shows
the average cost per year per man in
the United States to be $1O5.96. and In
the Philippines. $114.21.
1t is interesting to note, the report
says, that out of a total OF $11,864,S94
spent during the yea for subsistence.
only four-ffths Of l per cent, or $780,
906, is accredited to losses from such
causes as ordinary wastage In issue
and transportation, deterioration from
climatic causes. theft and property
worn out.
The experimental farm conducted
by the subsistence department at
Camp Wears, P. l., for the purpose of
determining whether potatoes could
be successfully raised In the Philip
pines has proved the unfeasib1lity OF
such a project. Although the condi-
lions were exceedingly favorable when
the plants first came up the report
admits. blight invaded the farm, and
while the yield averaged twenty-five
bushels to an acre, only fourteen OF
these were found fit for consumption.
While the results are declared to
have been a great disappointment, the
commissary general feels hat the ex-
penditure of time and funds was we'll
repaid.

inseed Meal as Ionic Food

The great tonic value Of linseed
meal is evidenced by the fact that
most Of the so-called patent stock
foods and condition powders are large
ly made up of linseed meal. 1t is a
laxative feed and for this ason large
quantities Of it should Eve be fed
as a daily ration. 1t is especially suit
ed to young stock. being rich in grow
ing material, such as protein and ash.
Indeed there is no class Of farm AMI
mails to which some linseed meal
cannot be fed to advantage, especial
ly when the animals are deprived for
long periods Of green or succulent
feeds. Linseed meal takes the place
of the high-price patent tonic stock
feeds and costs on an average only
about one-tenth as much. Every well
regulated stock farm should always
be provided with linseed meal.

STORAGE OF THE ROOT CROPS
Easy of Construction-Pit Also
Found Satisfactory.

(By E. j. W1CHE W~iscousin)
Root crops are valuable tor stoch
feeding, both for their content OF di-
gestible nutrients ana in supplying
succulent feed for the winter months.
Under good conditions a large amount
of feed per acre can be grown from
roots, for this reason-they are use
full on small farms where the amount
Of land under cultivation is small.
Roots can probably be grown for
less than 50 per ton under favorable
conditions. The cost Of production
per acre Is approximately $95 per
acre.
Mangels give the heaviest yield per
acre. with ~rutabagas and turnips a
close second, and carrots third.
Carrots and rutabagas are about
equal in per cent. of digestible nutrl-
ents, and are higher in this respect
than either mangels or turnips.
Turnips and rutabagas do not keep
SO well as some other roots. They
should be fed in the fall and early
winter in the order named.
Mangels and carrots keep we'll over
winter when properly stored.
The best place to store roots is In a
root cellar near where they are to be
fed. Such a cellar may be a part OF a
barn, basement, or it may be built
conveniently near to the stock barn.
In most places the root house can be
built most economically of concrete.
Ordinarily cement is the only material
that has to be purchased. h gravel
and m are usually available at no
great distance on most farms. Wh1le
the temperature in a root house should
never fall to the freezing point, 1T
should be at a low point for best re-
suits in keeping roots.
When no cellar Is available, roots
may be stored in pits. For fall and
early winter feeding, they need not be
covered t. any great depth. The roots
are put in a conical pile, about four
feet in diameter on a bed OF clean
straw, Their covered with a layer OF
two inches OF long straw. Clean rye
straw is preferred for this purpose.
The straw at the apex of the pile Is
made to form a chimney five or six
inches in diameter for ventilation.
