One Way to Increase Farm
Profits.

Your profits from your farming
lis merely the difference between
lwhatEou get for your crops and
WhatBit costs you TO produce them.
|IEcotton sells for twelve cents a
pound dsand you make $50 pounds t.
the acre at cost of nine cents a
pound your profit is s5.4o per acre.
fIfscotson sells for ten cents pound
and yon make 500 pounds per acre
atsacost Of Z cents a pound, your
proitson ru ~e is SIS. In othe'
words, the. two ways for you
toincrease y~ur profits. One is to
getmore Cor what you make; the
other Is to make it at less cost.
op ought to make an effort
along both these lines; sbut the lat.
tersone the more important, both
because the individual can do more
to cheapen production than to raise
prices and because the average cost
ofspFednction is more above what
it sssenld be than the average prices
re ;eiged for farm products are be-
low q fair standard.
The first thing to do to reduce
the5cost of production is to increase
thesaYerage yield per acre. The av-
erage crop in the South is net pro-
titable crop. You must make more
than $50 pounds of cotton or ls
bushelaof oo1a per acre if you
make much money farming.
You can increase your average
yielasin two ways. You can prac-
lice better methods and you can
quit working land that is too poor
to produce fair crop. You don't
nave to plant corn on land that will
not make more than fifteen bushels
to- the acre. You are doing a fool
shsthing when you do it, for you
can make more off Of such land, by
planting 1T IN some other crop, say
cowpeas orssoy beans, and you can
gesmore for your labor By working
fofgyag res.

too poor to give us reasonable hope
Of fair yield. The only crops to
plant on such land are soil-buildlng
crops-lhe legumes. Give the land
chance and give yourself a chance.
Don't put your labor where you
know it will not pay. Thousands
will do ii; bnt you need not.
Keep the corn and cotton off the
hopelessly poor acres. This is one
sure way to increase farm profits =

CORN EXPOSITION.
Every Farmer Should Attend.
Great Exposition Lasts Until
February s. Many States
Represented.

Every farmer in the south ought
to be laying his plans to visit Co.
!ambia S. c., during the national
corn exposition which will last un-
til the 9th of February. 1t is not
only the biggest thing of the sort
which has ever been held in this
state or the south, but in some res
poets it will be ahead of anything
the country has ever seen.
In sense it is misnomer to
speak of it as corn show. Of
course, it is a corn show, and pre-.
eminently SO, but it does not stop
there by any means. Step by step
it has grown in the last half dozen
years until its scope has been broad
ened to include practically every
important problem of agricultural
progress.
The exposition this year promises
to be by odds the best that has been
held since the project was first con-
ceived. More time has been allow.
ed for preparation and those who
are in charge of it have been at
work now for nearly two years
making all the needful arrange
.nents and thoroughly advertising
the event throughout the entire
country. 1t is expected that at least
thirty-five states will be represented;
between twenty-five and thirty ag-
ricultural colleges and experiment
stations will have exhibits; more in
dividual competitors have been en-
tered than ever before, and con-
gress having at last given the expo
sition official recognition, the fed
eral department of agriculture is
installing the most. comprehensive
and elaborate exhibit ever put up
at any exposition.
Too obvious to require stressing5i
Eare the benefits which the soath
fs1ouiG Sfeap from the gSiEss to
this section of hundreds Of the most
prosperous and intelligent agricul-
turalists Of other parts Of America.
They will be here from the farthest
confines Of the nation and a con-
siderable percentage Of them will
be men who have learned in the
school of experience how to esti-
mate the value of undeveloped op-
porlunities. 1t will pay the far
mers of South Carolina handsome
ly to get iii touch with them when
they come here They are ready to
teach and they are also ready to be
taught. We can learn of them and
they should learn of us.
This is the first time the national
corn ex position has been held in
the south. Its standing before the
country is already established. Far
mers of every southern state, and
all others who are Interested in the
advancement of the people have
ahead Of them a great educational
privilege. They should wake up to
the fact before it is too late. They
should determine without further
delay that they will not miss visit
ing the exposition for at least day,
and they will make every effort to
prolong their stay. it will be too
big an event to take it on the rum,

three years nearly 262.O00,OOO feet
have been contracted for on this
forest. From seven to ten years will
be required to cut this timber, which
is less than 71a percent of the amount
of the whole forest. The Whitman
timber which has been sold is split
un into four separate contracts, OF
from IS million to 70 million feet
each. to four separate and independ-
ent local companies. This can hardly
be called promoting monopoly.
"A number of smaller sales have
been made in the same general re-
gion to different local lumber COM
uanies. For example, we have made
one sale of So million feet on the Lo-

Chief FORESTER SAYS NATIONAL
FOREST SUPPLYISPLENTIFUL
SCOTS at Idea That Sale of Government Timber Will Be Con-
ducive to Lumber Trust-WiII Be Pleased When Sales
Reach Half of Annual Growth

WASHINGTON. - That the great
Increase in sales of national forest
timber will not dangerously deplete
the country's wood supply is the de.
claration of Chief Forester Henry S.
Graves in statement made public
recently.
There is no danger of cutting off
the national forests too rapidly" said
Mr.. Graves, NOR will our sales
strengthen the control of the lumber.
ing industry by few powerful com.
ranies. In every individual sale spe.
cffic provisions are made to safe.
guard the public interests in both
these particulars.
Not long ago the policy of conser-
walton, as applied to the national Cor
ests, was supposed to mean that the
governments timber resources were
indefinitely tied up. Now the fear is
expressed that we are cutting too
much timber-the other extreme. Be-
cause the forest service is advertising
widely by commercial methods its
more extensive sales and securing the
utmost possible competition, some peo-
pie have apparently jumped to the
conclusion that the forest service
aims to cut off all the national for
est timber within few years. Or it
is assumed that we are making sales
chiefly to the larger lumber compa-

MES, and thereby playing into the
hands of big lumber interests.
THE function of the Forest service
is primarily to avoid just those dan
gers; the evils of unscientifice lumber
ing and the fostering OF monopoly
How these evils are guarded against is
illustrated in our recent sales.
"The Forest Service recently adver
tised about 245 million feet Of timber
on the Kaniksu National Forest in the
northwest corner of Idaho, the first
large sales in this locality. The
Kaniksu Forest contains, as matter
of fact, nearly 2,730, 000, 900 feet of mer
camille stumpage. Ten years will be
reP1ired to cut the amount adyer
\ sed, which is only one-tenth of the
total stand on the forest In other
words, about per cent Of the timber
on this forest will be cut off annually,
no more than is being produced every
year by growth. The timber adver
tised has been awarded to two rela
lively small local lumber companies
which have no affiliations with large
timber corporations and own but very
small quantities of timber themselves
"A number of recent sales have
been made on the Whitman National
Forest in the Blue Mountains of north
eastern Oregon. Within the last

NELSON GETS DRAW
WITH NOTED ROLLER
Local Man Puts Up Surpris-
in Exhibition of Strength
and Skill.

There is reason to believe that last
night saw the coming forth in Salt Lake
Of another worlds champion wrestler,
this time heavyweight, to stand be-
side the Peerless Mike Yokel, the mid
dleweight.
The man who gives this promise is
George Nelson, member of the Salt
Lake fire department.
Wrestling desperately for two hours,
Nelson got draw with DR.. B. +. Rol-
Ter, one Of the worlds greatest mat
artists. Nelson wrestled Roller to q
standstill, and in the end was'n no worse
OFF than the renowned Seattle athlete
The match was called draw by
agreement, an arrangement which ap-
pearcd to be satisfactory to q couple
of hundred fans who sat in tho Garrick
theater, shivering with cold.
The crowd was so small that for
time there was question as to whether
the match should be gone through with
or not The reason for the slim attend
ance doubtless was the fact that nobody
figured Nelson to put UP more than
creditable battle with the trained and
for an instant thought that Nelson
would make the great showing he did.
Outweighed twenty pounds or more
and, big as he is, looking slight be-
side Roller, the perfect athlete. Nell
son surprised everyone who was for
tunate enough TO see tho bout 1t can
truthfully be said that no bout at
wrestling in Salt Lake has been more
bitterly fought than was that Of last
night.
Roller was picked to throw Nelson
easily in forty minutes at the outside.
Yesterday even Nelson s most ardent
admirers would scarcely have yynpered
that their favorite would stand the
pace that length Of time. To stay with
Roller an hour would have been a great
feat, so the "dope' read. and when
Nelson wTestled this veteran for two
hours his performance is admittedly
wonderful

the tricks and catches OF the game, mp
parently tried everything lie had, but as
fast as he applied his holds, Nelson
worked out of them, sometimes clever
ly, sometimes by main strength. Nelson
was not the graceful wrestler that Rol-
Ter showed himself to be, The fireman
at times was positively awkward, and
someone in the little handful Of specta-
tors dubbed him "the farmer, '-an'
other Farmer Burns, who knows'
At the beginning Roller was the ag..
gressor, out after the first hour had
passed Nelson took the lead as often as
Roller did, ard perhaps more often. 1t
was clear that Roller recognized early
that he had met Il tough customer and
he took 10 chances.
The men were down on the mat only
after q fall, il was lightning work IN.
deed For the most part they played
the waiting game, on their feet, wait
ing for each other TO weaken. Roller
was repes .edly charged with rough
ing it, by the crowd, and epithets-
some of them 6isgracerul--were hurled
at him from all sides However, Mel
son learned good deal that wrest.
Ter ought to know from Rollers rasps
and he is not likely to forget it. For
example, it was not until toward the
learned to protect his face from Rol-
ler's shoves and elbow jabs.
Three times Roller got q deadlock
on Nelson and each tine it seemed as
though the fireman were in danger, but
always he wiggled out OF IL and was
Justify cheered.
After the match Roller made little
speech in which he gave Nelson credit
for having given him a hard battle.
Also he said he would like to have
return match with Nelson, but it is e1-
tremely doubtful if Roller permitted
the match TO 20 TO draw Intentionally
for the sake Of return match-ho
seemed to be too much in earnest at
all times to have anything in his mind
except TO beat Nelson, if he could.
At any rate, if the men do meet III
return match and put up as good d
battle as they did last night, wrestling
fans will have every reason to be sat-
istied.
William Thornton, manager for Wal
no Ketonen, who meets Chris Jordan
December l, was the referee. Thorn.
ton s work as the third man on the
mat marked him a master of the game.
Preceding the main match, Evard
Pelk and George McCloud. light twciehts,
put up thirty minutes of the fastest
kind Of work. Tom Dono. southern
mlddleweight champion, was the ref
cree OF that match.
