FORAGE AND COVER CROPS

Mention has previously been maze
of the fact that the people Of York
county are paying more attention to
forage and cover crops than ever be-
fore, and as the result Of a conversa-
ton with Mr.. John r. Blair, the gov
ernment demonstration agent for this
county, we gather the idea that the
general activity is more extensive
than we had heretofore supposed.
II have not at hand the information
that would enable me to give exact
figures" said Mr.. Blair; but / know Of
one Fort Mill concern that has sold
800 bushels Of crimson clover seed,
and have heard Of a Rock Hill con-
Germ that has received a similar ship
ment. From sales that have been
made in Yorkville, Sharon, Clover
and other points, and from ship
ments that have been received by pri-
vate individuals direct, ! am satisfied
that one thousand bushels of crimson
clover seed would be a small estimate
for the county, and this would mean
the sowing Of at least four thousand
acres.
Although the farmers are sowing
alfalfa, vetch, rye and the clover-g grass
mixture" crimson clover seems to be
the favorite with the larger number OF
people. They are sowing crimson clo-
yer in all sections Of the county. Some
are putting 1t in with proper inocu-
lation, and some are just scattering 1t
on the ground without any inocula-
ton. have come across a few cases
where crimson clover was just scat
tered on the hard, dry ground, without
any pretense Of sowing, and although
1t came up all right 1t soon died. II
the ground had been soft and moist
as it was in the case that Mr.. ]. c.
Burge referred to recently 1t would
have been all right, as then 1t could
have taken root and grown off.
Next to crimson clover, Mr. Blair
went on, rye is most popular. At a
rough estimate I would say that be-
tween $500 and 5000 acres Of rye have
been sown in the county. l am pref
ty sure that the first figures are not
too high, but the last figures may be
too low.
with the alfalfa already sown and
that yet to be sown, would say that
there must be somewhere between 500
and 700 acres in the county. OF this
probably $50 acres were already In
and the balance has been going in
during the past month or six weeks.
Most Of the new sowing is promising
nicely.
people are taking on to vetch with
more interest than they have shown
heretofore, and as those who have al
ready tried it get a chance to do mis-
sionary work, the interest and faith in
this crop increases. I would say that
up to the present time about 200 acres
have been sown in various parts of the
county.
"As to the clover-grass mixture. /
will say that It Is also coming. The ag-

The necessity for amending the new
tariff law before it gets under way
has become apparent. The provision
allowing per cent reduction in the
tariff duties on goods brought in
American ships will go to most Of the
countries that export goods to America
in the largest quantities under treaty
agreements guaranteeing against dis
elimination. Experts have reported
to the administration officials that this
provision will mean a virtual reduc-
ton of five per cent on all tariff du-
ties. 1t is proposed now that the best
way out Of this whole trouble Is to
pass a joint resolution repeating the
paragraph entirely.

sULZER CASE CLOSED
Governor Did Not Go on Stand to Tell
His Story.

Albany, N. Y, Oct. 8.-Without
calling either Gov. Sulzer or his wife
to the witness stand, his counsel to-
day rested their case in the trial or
his impeachment. According to D..
Cady Herrick. chief Of his attorneys.
Gov. Sulzer decided not to defend
himself in person, because he did
not want to be placed in q position
of shielding himself behind his wife
for 1t was for Mrs. Sulzer. according
to testimony, that the governor had
recourse to Wall street dealing.
Tomorrow and Friday will be de-
voted to summing up the case by op-
posing counsel. Monday, next, being
a holiday, adjournment probably Will
be taken until Tuesday when It Is ex-
pected the verdict on the governors
innocence or guilt will be reached.
Judge Herrick tonight pointed out
that the testimony yesterday Of Allen
A. Ryan best disclosed the reason why
the governor had not taken the stand.
This was the conversation which Ryan
said he had with the impeached ex-
ecutive early in September in rela-
ton to obtaining political influence to
stop the trial.
II suggested to Mr.. Sulzer," Ryan's
testimony ran, now that certain
charges had been made against him
that I did not see that he could af-
ford to put himself in a position In
which he could not answer the
charges. He said that the reason
was that he did not want to drag
his wife into the situation and put
her on the stand
The sudden announcement that the
case for the defense was closed. which
came late in the afternoon session,
created a sensation In the court room.
Soon after the trial began Gov. Sulzer
told newspaper men that he would
positively appear in his own defense.
He said that at that time he would
tell an astounding story that would
force Charles F. Murphy, leader of
Tammany Hall, to take the stand
in his defense also. Until few days
ago, 1t was learned from authoritative
sources tonight, the governor was
still insisting that he be allowed to

We said at the beginning Of the
present extra session Of congress that
tariff reform would be a rather empty
victory for the people without curren-
cy reform, and we still feel exactly
that way, except that we recognize that
the income tax feature of the tariff
law helps the situation wonderfully.
Still, however, If the elements that
now have control Of the currency sys-
tenn continue in that control and de-
vote themselves to the purpose Of so
adjusting matters as to maintain their
past relations with production, the
possible benefits of the new legislation
will not be so quick or so apparent.

The assistant attorney general
yesterday rendered an important rul-
ing as to the handling Of the convicts
in the state penitentiary. Spartanburg
county had asked for the return OF Its
convicts to work on the public roads.
The assistant attorney general holds
that the convicts cannot now be re-
turned except by special act Of the
general assembly and If returned with
out a statute of the legislature. they
must be paid for at the rate of "a a
month each, with board, lodging and
clothing 1t is also stated that the
governor would have the power to COM
mute a prisoners sentence from the
penitentiary to the public works Of any
county.

Not Using coercion.-Reports that
President Wilson was attempting to
prod Democratic senators into quick
action on the currency bill and pub
lished statement that he would class
as a rebel any Democrat who did
not support him, brought out an en-
phatic denial from the White House
Wednesday. The president made pub
lie the following letter:
ITO the Editor of the Washington
Post-Sir: am quoted in your issue
Of this morning as saying that any one
who does not support me Is no Demo-
crat, but a rebel. OF course / never
said any such thing. It is contrary
both to my thought and to my charac-
ter, and / must ask that you give a
very prominent place in your issue of
tomorrow to this denial.
Very truly yours,
Woodrow Wilson"

While of course the Democratic con-
gressmen have had long hard siege
of it in dealing with the tariff, and
currency bills, there is not great
deal Of excuse for their failure to
maintain a quorum for the passage OF
the urgent deficiency bill. The Demo-
cratic administration can be seriously
embarrassed just now If the Demo-
cratic congressman fail to stick to
their posts.
