HOUSTON INDORsES LEVERS BILL
Secretary of Agriculture FavOrs
Plan to Bring Training to the
Planters.

Washington, Sept. 25.-Representa-
| tive Lever today received letter from
Secretary Houston commencing his
farm extension bill, now pending in
congress. In the letter Secretary
Houston says:
81 note your request of the 18th
September that I submit my views as
to the desirability of the passage OF
the farm extension bill.
"I have carefully read the bill and
it seems to me to be admirably drawn
to accomplish the purposes in view.
The department of agriculture and the
different State colleges have enough
agricultural information to revolution
ize the agricultural industry in this
country IL it should be effectively
transmitted to the farmer. AS mat
ter OF fact, vast numbers of farmers
either do not receive the information
or do not receive it in such q way as
to be adequately impressed with it
and to be induced to apply it. 1t
seems very unfortunate that we are
spending so much money to obtain
information that we can not secure
a wider application of it.
"I am especially impressed with the
cooperative features of the bill. I be-
lieve tnat the provisions bearing on
this point will secure better under
standing and fuller coordination Of
effort on the part Of the federal de-
partment Of agriculture and the State
agencies. The two are working to the
same end and should work in the
closest harmony. -
'The bill contemplates that the diff
ferent agencies shall incorporate,
carefully devise and execute projects.
This in itself is an immense advance.
I think it clear that If the federal
government is to make appropriations
for such a purpose as this bill con-
templates it should be in position to
see that the money is applied FOR the
purposes intended and is applied ef-
fciently The fact that the bill pro-
vides that the work shall be carried
on in such manner as may be mutual
ly agreed upon by the secretary Of ag-
riculture and the State college or col
leges will guarantee the application of
the money in accordance with the in
tention OF congress and will secure
efficiency. / do not see how it would
be possible to make a wiser arrange
ment."

Special to The Herald and News.
Excelsior, Sept 29.-Our people are
busy picking' cotton and gathering
pea vine hay.
Now is the time to use the split log
drag on the roads. This is the easiest
way to put the roads in good condi-
ton.
DR.. R. C. Kibler returned home
Saturday from a three weeks stay
with friends at Laurens.
Mr.. Freddie Cook and Misses Cora
Lee and Mamie Mae Cook are attend
ing the Prosperity High school.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. H. Werts went down
to Columbia Monday. Mrs. Werts will
spend about three weeks at Knowl-
tons infrmary fer a treatment.
The writer and his better half spent
Sunday at Saluda court house, the
guest of his sister, Mrs. H. G. Crouch.
We drove over in Mr.. J. E. Longs au-
tomobile with Mr.. Long at the wheel
who is a good careful driver. We
found the roads in fairly good condi-
ton. We went by way of Newberry
and we noticed the crops along the
road from Newberry on to Saluda court
house very good and in fact some of
the crops were extra. There is some
fine farming land in Saluda county
and we believe the day is not far off
wnen the Saluda railroad will be
brought on over to Newberry. This is
badly needed and the sooner the bet
ter. The railroad will make the land
still more valuable This was our first
visit to Saluda court house and we
found a nice town, clean and neat
leaking. Some nice store buildings
and residences there. Saluda Is bound
to build up as the town is surrounded
by a fine farming country. Saluda
has her railroad advantages now, has
three churches, good school and 9TH
er things that make live town and
she is going to come to the front In
the near future. We hope to soon see
the railroad extended on over to New
berry as the people need the advan-
tages the road will give them. we
were pleased with Saluda, and we
hope to enjoy visit there again in
the near future when we can have time
to make our stay a little longer and
see more Of the business going on
there.

The Fighting Chance, was the sub
ject of the address given by Rev. Edw.
Fulenwider Sunday afternoon. Draw
ing an apt illustration from the Scrip
lures the speaker showed that the
chance of attaining unto successful
life--a life of nobility and true worth
is only a fighting chance. Also, if
rejecting this fighting chance, it was
clear that one faces a harder struggle
of fatal consequence AS aids indis-
pensable to the man attaining success
the following were laid down: Educa-
ton thorough and complete, charac-
ter sterling and unblemished and last
ly, God accepted as God.
The outstanding truth was that a
Cody man can be manly man and
that Cody man is always and truly
a successful man.
To attend the student conference Of
the State Y. NJ. C. A., held at Colum-
bia 8-12 Of October, Messrs. K. M.
Counts, D. E. Bfrd, R. L. Hipp, E. H.
Seckinger and E. D. Williams were
elected. Much information concerning
the coming conference was secured
from Mr.. E. G. Wilson, an interstate
secretary, who visited the college re-
Gently.
1t is gratifying to announce that DR..
E. P. Jones Of the Baptist church will
address the association next Sunday
afternoon. God things can be expect
ed: 80 let US nave large attendance.
