SILO BEING FILLED,
Five Acres Of Green Corn Being Cut

Use.

The first and only silo in this coun
ty, so far as is known at the Item
office. that belonging to Mr.. l.. l.
PaIrott and recently built on his
place on the Wedgefield road about
miles from this city. is. being filled
with green corn cut up fine and in
a few days II will be ready to be
closed until winter when the doors
will be opened and the feed taken out

The silo is a seemingly simple and
easily constructed contrivance and If
IL proves a success no doubt it will
be copied by a large number Of the
farmers throughout this county,
who are themselves too skeptical of
Its merits to try 1t. 1t
has been found to operate success
fully in the West and recently several
have been erected In various parts of
this State for the storing of green
food for cattle and hogs during the
winter, when they cannot easily find
much food in their pastures.
The building on Mr.. Pcr' ,tt's place
was erected by Mr.. A. e. Ardis, who
has charge Of che place for Mr.. Par
rott. after he had visited Clemson
College this summer and carefully
studied out the details Of the silos

Mr.. Parrott's plan is to feed a

A report from Washington indi-
Gates that there has been another
premature explosion in the camp
of the radicals. This is a prop
2osition to repeal the law creating
court of commerce. The inter-
state commerce commission issued
an order reducing rates into the
inter r-mountain country. The
railroads are resisting the order
and have taken the case before the
commerce court, which they have
a perfect right to do. The court
has granted a temporary injunction
restraining further proceedings un-
til the case can be heard on it's
merits. This is a regular pro ceed-
ing and does not indicate any pre-
judice on the part of the court
whatever. Undoubtedly when the
case is heard it will be decided
justly, but in the mean time, why
fly off the handle and begin cursing
the court Then suppose this
court were abolished, that would
not deprive the railroads of the
privilege of having their case ad-
judicated in court. They would
simply have to take it through the
regular and tedious channels to the
Uuited States supreme court, and
in all probability the final decision
would be about the same as the
commerce court will give.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, August S-Cotton futures opened steady at the decline, Il to 19 points down. Cables were very unfavor- able and private dispatches from across the water stated that this was due to the fact that the railway strike was interfer- ing with business Some cable messages claimed that cotton mills in Lancashire were closing on account of the strike. The weather map was generally called favor able but many traders were inclined to find fault with the continued high tenn peratures and dry weather in Texas. Some experts contended that this would lead to premature opening of bolls. The market had an easy undertone In the early trading. and at the end of the first half hour of business prices were 14 to 17 points under yesterdays close.
 Around the middle of the morning the market acted from the decline half a dozen points on profit taking by shorts, but when the furry was over prices worked lower than ever on the weekly weather reports from the weather bureau, which were called favorable in the ex- treine and late cable messages from Liv- erpool. which stated that the labor trou- bles in England were extending and be- to level 2 to 2S points under yester- days close. Realizing began again on the short side and at noon prices were 22 tc 23 points below yesterdays final quota tions.
 In the afternoon session the market continued to sag under free offerings as the result of pessimistic cables from Eng land regarding the labor situation. At :
