d.
.Allr over the country people wonder
why the farmers Of the South, and
more especially of the Piedmont sec-
tton of South Carolina stick to the
cotton crop and nothing else. They
inquire more especially about the
Piedmont section because they know
that In Spartanburg, GreenvilIe and
Anderson counties, almost any pro-
duct can be raised. .-zl
E..J Walters, general manager OF
the Augusta Milling Company of Mos
6y Creek, Va. has written letter Ia
Furman Smith, In which lie tells the
Anderson man that he was greatly
surprised, upon a visit TO Anderson,
to find that the People Of this section
raise so little corn. grass and cattle.
He says that this seems TO him to be
an ideal section for raising .'u.y, on
account Of the fact that Tiers is a
local market for all that could be rails
cd here. aM
Not long ago Mr.. Smith wrote the
Virginia man q letter In which he
a:ked a number of questions. Some
OF these questions with their answer.

MOSER'S SCHEME INTRODUC-
ED in THIS SECTION
ORGANIZED EFFORT
Originally Planned ito Organize
alDairy Association Later, but
Plans Have Been Changed
(From Tuesdays Daily.)


chamber Of commerce has issued the
following statement regarding the
Moscr plan for promoting tho dairy
ing industry In Anderson county. 1t
rraA originally planned to begin the
work of organizing model associ-
alton this coming spring. but the
chances are that an effort will be
made to do SO earlier than that date.
Ii Is believed that conditions are cs-
pecially- favorable towards organizing
an association this fail.
The plan follows:
The plan by which the Anderson
Chamber of Commerce proposes to
Eostcr the dairying industry In l!nder-
soun County, and which It has named
"the Moser Plan" reduced to It's es-
sentfals. provides:
Il A method by Which the farm
ere. through cooperation with the
bankers and business men of their re-
.pectivc towns: may purchase dairy
animals silos, and dairying equip
ment for engaging In the dairying bus
lners.
as (2) A means whereby the intend
ing dairymen and their supporters may
BIO assured of getting good animals
and adequate equipment for the
amount invested.
{3) For such general supervision
and expert assistance In the newly be-
gun dairying operations as shall as
sure the financial support of the va
rious associations the business will be
managed with the maximum OF efflc-
tericy and economy. to the end that the
guarantors shall incur the least prac-
ucable risk and the dairymen earn
the largest profits. t
The First Step.
The first STEP, that OF instituting a

consits in forming an organization of
its business men to conatitute guar
antor's association for the purpose Of
giving good and sufficient security to
the banks for whatever advances OF
funds may be necessary,to finance. the
undertaking. The farmers who wish
to engage in dairying make application
to the guarantors' association, which
through It's members being personally
acquainted with the character and re-
sBosibility Of the applicant may
choose good men and thus keep tho
element Of risk at d minimum s'i The

 I imagine this writer voices the feel ings of good many women who would like to be fond of dishwashing if they could. l confess that my athy goes out to her and that she has put into words the ideas of a large number of house. keepers, whose ambitions are greater than their strength.
 |" don't agree with you at all about the time you take to wash dishes. I have studied out my own way and 1t works we'll although it may not sound especially dainty. I stopped drying dishes years ago. I can't afford patent dish washer yet. put the dishes to soak in hot water and washing soda just as soon as we fin- ish eating and go about something else for little while. When l come back to them the worst of the grease is off. rub them with a mop to get off anything that sticks to them obstinately, then l stand them on edge in the dish drainer and pour boiling water over them and leave them to dry. They are not streaked or spotty. either. Of course, I can't do this with the glass and the silver. but they don't take long compared with the other It may not sound very particular. but don't know but what my dishes look as well as those washed in two ddshpans and dried with fine towels. M. K
 am one of the happy women who have patent dishwashers, and only wish every other housekeeper was as lucky. hang the cups on hooks inside of kind of tin box, stand the cups and saucers and plates on edge. fasten the end of piece of hose to the hot water faucet. and turn the water on the dishes through the hose. There is force enough to cleanse them we'll and I have the water so hot that they dry of themselves in a little while l am afraid this is not lucid de- scrption, but I will be happy to give the make of the machine to any one who would like to have it. It is not an expen- sive contrivance, and you have no idea of the time and labor 1t saves me in the course of the year. NELLIE O.

said while ago that the reform of tho present condition of affairs Is in the hands of the housekeepers One may not be able to do much, but if all of us would make point of demanding decent man. agement of the food we give ourselves and our households, there would be change. A number of clear sighted women have banded themselves together to do just that sort of thing. and their influence is already beginning to display itself in those sections where they live and labor.
 You may not be able to start an organi- zation of this sort or even to connect your- self with one, but various actions lie within your power. The oft-ouoted asser- ton that the streets of Jerusalem were kept clean by each one sweeping in front of his own door applies here. If you personally. demanded that your meat and vegetables should be kept in sanitary sur roundings. that cooked foods should not be exposed to contamination, that flour should be sold In heavy paper bags instead of in porous cloth; if you positively de- clined to buy food that was not thus pro- tected, you would find reform showing itself in marvelously short time Don't you think it would be worth while. and are you willing to work for 1t?

,<U ~ regard to your question about ss dishwashing 1t seems to me that
 our complaints along that line
 come not from a dislike for that
 special duty. but from the fact that we women who mothers, cooks, housekeepers, seamstresses, washwom- en. scrubwomen. voters, social, church, and civic workers and musicians all rolled into one find ourselves so overwhelmed with duties that we would like to cut the lime given to dshwashing as short as pos sible. I think this work comes near est to being drudgery and monotony be- cause of it's recurrence. Not long ago a friend of mine said when he saw me with dishes stacked for washing at my sink; cant see why you women don't invent some easier way to take care of this drudgery. man would never have borne it so long. The only answer seems to be domestic help. which most of us cannot afford. I have found that by rinsing my dishes in hot water and stacking them edge in wire rack they dry evenly and quickly and are ready to put away by the time the pots and pans are cleansed. I also use a brush made of stiff wire with short ham dle for scraping pots and dishes and find 1t much the quickest and best way. We buy these kettle scrapers in the dry goods basement stores l cannot imagine any one finding housekeeping monotonous. There is something new to read and try out all the time and such a wide scope for experiment and improvement that find only about half hours enough in the day to spend at it. MRS l.. NJ .E.''
 am glad to give the above writer's ad vice as to cleansing some of her dishes and I hope they may be of assistance to other women. So far as men are con rerned, let me say. relative to her friends utatement that men would have discov- cred a way before this for simplying such drudgery if it had fallen to their share that the fact remains that there are many kinds of hard work accomplished by men which have not been simplified even by them. Still wish they would come forward with patent which would do the work well and cheaply.
 "It's all very well to write pretty sto- ries about washing dishes. but l have never JDuDu IL dDytfliiS but iiohN 1iiN unpleasant work. and yet have used all the means I could to simplify my work and have worn gloves and used mop and done everything else. The trouble is that dishwashing Is just the one thing too much to do. The cooking and set ting the table and even clearing it off and putting the food away Is all well enough, but then I am so tired that hate to wash up the greasy and sticky things that we have been eating from. And the worst part of it is that it's never finished. I am not very fond of washing and ironing-I don't begin to Nike them as well as do cooking. for instance. but when get up early Mon Gay and start the day and have my clothes on the line early they come in
