lone More HOG to Each PIow.'' "

IF every farmer in this State
would just increase his hog pro-
duction by one hog per plow this
year, what a difference it would
make in South Carolina one
year from now," remarked Com
missioner Watson Monday. "One
or two hogs and ten chickens
added for every. plow in this
State would put hundreds Of
thousands of dollars of wealth
here without any effort being
felt.
The last available census that
South Carolina produced $685.
288 hogs on 176, 434 farms. The
value of this product was So, 628, :
297. That was an average of
less than five hogs to the farm
and each farm had an average
of 76 acres. This department
of course appreciates the efforts
of progressive citizens to raise
hogs in large numbers on
regularly prepared hog ranges,
such as there are in some sec
tions of the State, but what we
wish to see is more of an equal
izing of the good results from
producing more meat and energy
on the farm.
1 see no reason why the num-
ber of hogs produced in this
State last year should not be
doubled this year, but even if
that might be too much to ex-
pect, why should not each farm
er try to increase the number of
hogs on his place by at least one
hog for every plow that runs?
And chickens are easy to raise in
the country, where they have
ranging room. Let us have at
least ten more chickens per farm
in 1915, althodgh | see no reason
why South Carolina should not
produce 5000, 900 more chickens
this coming year and thus add to
the income of the State some
thing like 81. 100000 that is
practically picked up

so. that eventually others who
live here will indirectly share in
the bounty.

Nothing less was to be ex-
pected of the American people
than that they would respond
readily and literally to the plea
to help the helpless Belgians
whose opportunity to provide
for themselves has been swept
away by the destructive Eu-
ropean war. Deprived of the
opportunity to do for themselves,
many thousands of these worthy
people are on the point Of star
vation, and starve they will un-
less the heart of our great country
affords them succor. 1t is worth
noting that in helping the Bel
gians relief is not being extend
ed such a race as the Wild hordes
of human flotsam and jetsam that
people all south Europe. The
Belgians are an industrious peo-
pie who can take care of them
selves in normal times.

Cost of Cotton to Grower.

The cost of producing cotton
averages about 8.24 cents a
pound, or $20.35 an acre, ac-
cording to Assistant Chief Nat C..
Murray of the federal bureau
of crop estimates, in a report
published Thursday. These sta
tistics, the latest available on
the subject, are the results of
the investigation made in 1910.
A similar investigation in 1896
showed the production cost as
SGT cents pound, or $15. AZ an
acre.
Many inquiries, due no doubt
to the general decline in the
price of cotton, which on No
vember l averaged 6.3 cents a
pound to producers, compared
with 12.1 cents, the average of
the past five years on November
l have been received by the de-
partment of agriculture. Yearly
reports on the production cost
are not made by the depai tment
and the results of the 1910 in
vestigation had not heretofore
been announced.

Wha, of the Homeless. at Home?

A few weeks ago a certain
daily newspaper in one of the
great cities started a movement
for sending a ship load of Christ
mas presents to the orphans of
Europe.
The idea took" because it
was new and novel, and it af-
forded opportunity for cheap
notoriety. The fact that a ship
load of food would have given
greater and more pressing re-
lief did not matter. There was
no glory in sending food to the
starving.
Now another great daily paper
comes forward with a scheme
for having American homes
adopt the orphans of Europe.
That, like the Christmas ship,
is more or less commendable;
and it, too, affords an excellent
means of advertising advertis-
ing the newspaper and some
people" "
1t is well to relieve distress in
Europe. 1t is well to provide
homes for the orphans. Both
may bring forth letters of thanks
from kings and queens and lesser
dignitaries. All of which, to be
sure, would make excellent read
ing in print.
But what of home?
What of the hundreds of
thousands of children in our own
country to whom Christmas will
be but an empty name mock
cry?
What of the little babes in our
own country who are pining and
dying for want Of proper nour-
ishmen?
What of the mothers whose
breasts are empty because the
table is bare?
What of the fathers who are
walking the streets because
there is no employment for
them?
What of the young girls in the
great cities who are dragged
down to the depths because
their positions are gone, their
board bills are overdue, and they
cave nowhere to turn-no great
paper to head a campaign in their
behalf?
Europe has our sympathy it
should have what assistance we
may reasonably extend.
But charity should begin at
home and the Lord knows there
is abundant call for it in the
United States today.
But then there is glory in that
no advertising for the news
papers no notoriety for the
givers.
IL rs just charity and plain
charity is not popular.

II there is anything more to be
said in behalf of employing an
architect to suggest the kind of
furnishings suitable for the new
court house in Yorkville than
that it will afford the fortunate
individual an opportunity to re-
ceive several hundred dollars of
the taxpayers money for which
he will give practically nothing
in return we have not heard of
it. If York County is to set up
in the business of granting
gratuities, those who are re-
sponsible for the gifts should at
least be considerate enough to
see to it that the money goes to
persona who reside in the COUNTY.

The first church built IN this city
was an old log cabin erected in 1887
at Third and Cherry streets. On this,
the oldest church site in the city, the
oldest active minister in point of SER
vice in the city. breaches every Sun
day.
The Rev. DR.. Ellis N. Kremer has
served old Reformed Salem Church
for twenty-six years. He has been a
minister of the Gospel forty-three
years.
One of the members of Old Salem
described DR.. Kremer best perhaps
when he said:
''He is one of the d-fashioned pas
tors of that lovf BILE type which, 1t is
to be regretted, is passing away. DIR.
KreRier is the shepherd of his flock,
and/ his flock to him means every
man, woman or child that comes with
1nfhis influence, whether they be
CHURCH members or not"
n Called ''The Comforter
Among members of his congrega-
ton DR.. Kremer is often affectionately
nicknamed The Comforter" He
earns his title from his constant ac-
tivity among the poor, needy and be-
reaved. People who know him say
he has buried more of the outcasts
and the friendless than any other
minister in the city.
His greatest characteristic, perhaps,
is this charitable work, and vet it is
the least known of his activities The
unostentatious way In which he does
his charity Is carried out in his
church. He seeks to avoid publicity.
He never announces the subject of
his sermons, and the sermons are
never sensational. All are of the old
Gospel kind, filled with the spirit of
love which pervades everything the
man does.
