SECRETARY WILSON
TALKS TO FARMERS
Gives Some Valuable Advice
Advantages of State Pointed
Out-Other Addresses Made
by Distinguished Visitors.


by Distinguished Visitors.
The visit of James Wilson,
secretary of agriculture, and
the committee on agriculture of
= the national house of repre-
lsentatives to the National Corn
Exposition Saturday, was the
feature of the day, and served
to attract another enormous
crowd. The fact that it was
Saturday, holiday in the pub
lie schools, also increased the
attendance, many school teach
ers and children coming from
all parts of South Carolina.
The interest in the agricul-
tural displays was intensified by
the arrival of the Illinois ex-
hibit, which was delayed in
transit and of which all trace
was completely lost for several
days. AS one of the leading ag-
ricultural states of the nation,
Illinois has an exhibit we'll
worth seeing, exceptionally fine
corn being a feature.
Secretary Wilson was greet
ed upon his arrival with hearty
cheers. The audience sprang
to their feet when the noted
visitor was recognized and gave
him an enthusiastic welcome.
The band, catching the spirit of
the demonstration, played "The
Star Spangled Banner" and all
remained standing until the ma
tional anthem was completed.
In simple and emphatic Ian
guage, talking as a farmer to
farmers, Secretary Wilson made
an address in which he preach
ed the doctrine that the saliva
tion of the Southern farmer lay
in the raising of hogs and cat
tie and the growing of grasses
and other forage crops.
Don't sell your corn; feed it
to stock" he repeated again and
again, and asserted that by fol-
lowing his advice Southern
farmers could bring their soil
to a high state of fertility and
could maintain it's fertility with
a minimum use of commercial
fertilizers.
II realize" he said, chat if
the South should turn to the
raising of live stock, it would
mean a smaller demand for the
hogs and cattle of my own state
of Iowa. But l speak not as a
citizen of Iowa, but as citizen
of the United States. What
ever will benefit the agricultural
interests of one, section of the
country will benefit the whole
country"
RENDERED a LUNCHEON.
After his address Secretary
Wilson was rendered luncheon
by the girls of Winthrop Col
iege. He said he did not know
when he had ever enjoyed a
meal SO much. Shaking hands
with the girls, he said they sim
ply must pay him visit at
Washington.
Besides Secretary Wilson,
Harry P. Atwood, of Chicago,
John Lamb, of Virginia, chair
man of the house committee on
agriculture, and Senator E. D..
Smith made addresses.
1t was Boys Day at the expo
sition, but the event emphasiz-
ing the occasion did not take
place at the exposition grounds,
but at Craven hall, where ban
quet was given the Boys Corn
Club and Girls Tomato Club

lumbia and the chamber of COM
merce.

crops to the best advantage.
FARMERS WAKING UP.
'The farmers have been wax
ing up" he said. "They have
noticed that while they were
getting only three cents a quart
for their milk the consumer
was paying nine cents a quart.
And the same thing is true in
other cases. They have been
asking: How can we save a
portion of the 'middlemen's'
profits? How can we bring the
producer and consumer closer
together, so that the producer
may getmore money for his pro-
duct and the consumer may
save money? They have solved
the question with the one word
Cooperation
Mr.. Atwood then proceeded
to tell how in Iowa and other
states of the grain belt the
farmers got together and built
cooperative grain elevators.
There are 1900 such elevators
in the grain belt now, which
handle more than 5O0,OOO,OOO
bushels of grain year and save
for the farmers $2O,OOO,OOO.
The railroads tried to dis
courage the farmers elevators,
Mr.. Atwood said, by holding up
their cars for as much as four
days at a time, and the grain
trusts and boards of trade
threw every possible obstacle in
the farmers way at first. For
example, said Mr.. Atwood, the
grain trusts would offer 10
cents a bushel more at elevators
within 25 miles of the farmers
elevators than at elevators SO
miles of more distant.
Some of the farmers did not
stand firm" Mr.. Atwood con-
tinued, ''but enough did to make
the movement a success"
They realized, he said, that
they must all stick together or
be "stuck" separately.
1--WE regard the movement as
important" Mr.. Atwood stated,
because it is suggestive of
what you farmers in the South
can do with your cotton crop"
Secretary Wilson was given
a tremendous ovation when he
was introduced in glowing trib-
ute from Mr.. Montgomery as
the grandest old agriculturist
of us ALL"
Mr.. Wilson said that of the
3,100,000,000 bushels of corn
grown in the United States last
year the Ia cotton states pro-
duced 1,O80,00O,OOO bushels.
The next thing, he said, which
the department of agriculture
intends to turn its attention to
is to show Southern farmers
what to do with this corn.
MUST HOLD CORN.
After the department had re-
ceived reports last year of the
enormous crop of Southern
corn Mr.. Wilson said he called
Bradford Knapp, head of the
farmers demonstration work,
and told him it would not do for
the Southern people to sell their
corn. He said he told DIR.
Knapp to write a bulletin adj
vising the farmers of the South
to raise hogs and if there was
need he would have million
copies printed.
I'm making the enormous
corn crops which have aston
ished the world" said Secretary
Wilson, these boys have used
expensive fertilizers. Now
what are you going to do with
your corn? Sell it? | hope
not. It's poor business to sell
