CURB MARKET DISCUSSED.
Auvisability of Establishing One i'm
Sumter, Before Commercial Organ
izatiOn.

The question of the establishment of
curb market for the disposal of
vegetables fruits, poultry, etc in this
city is being agtated in Sumter Re
tall Dealers Association and Cham
Der OF Commerce circles.
"A meeting Of the officers and direc-
lors OF the association will be held at
O'Clock tomorrow, Friday afternoon
at Chamber of Commerce. At this
meeting the curb market idea will be
discussed, and if the directors approve
or the same it is very likely that the
city council will be consulted regard
ing the establishment Of such q mar
ket
The curb market plan is being satis-
1actorily conducted in Columbia,
knoxville, and other places, according
to general report.
1T is argued in favor Of n central
curb market that such a plan will be
an lnducement for farmers to plant
more truck and to raise more poultry,
fruits. berries and other Derishable
products. That the systematiZed mar
keting Of such kinds of food products
Will lead to u finer quality of produce
tlon, a more uniform price, and that
consumers in Sumter will have a larger
variety of such food products to select
from, and that competition will bring
ABOUT more equitable prices.
Under the present system of having
truck sold from the wagons it often
occurs that hundreds Of families for
days do not get an opportunity to pur-
chase vegetables. while those in 9th
er parts Of the city have a surplus of
food products offered them. There
are many things to be said in favor Of
the curb market, it's convenience, ac-
cessibility, sanitary inspection and
control under legal safeguards and
restrictions. and other cnmmendable
FEATURES. President j. Il. Hearon, of
the association heartily favors the
curb market idea.

met in Sumter and organized for the
purpose mentioned above. He hoped
that the Chamber of Commerce would
urge merchants to extend credit to
colored farmers as long as possible to
assist them in holding and getting bet
ter cotton prices. He said if the thou
sands OF colOred farmers are forced
to sush their cotton on market this
will make the supply greater than
the demand, and keep prices down
He asked that some colored farmers
be also paid ten cents per pound to
encourage them.
He was requested to try and have
every colored farmer to sign cotton
acreage and crop diversification
pledges. and he was also informed
that the Chamber Of Commerce
and the banks and merchants are
buying cotton from colored farmers as
we'll as white at ten cents per pound.

TRUSTEES WILL MEET.

Clarendon Schools to BE Discussed.
Manning, Oct. 1.-THE superinten-
dent of education, F.. j. Browne, has
called convention Of the school trus-
tees Of Clarendon county to be held
here on Tuesday, October 20, to con-
slider various matters of Importance
to the public schools. 1t is hoped that
there will be a full attendance of all
the trustees in the county in order
that there may be a full interchange
OF views. One question that will de-
mand urgent attention is the matter
Of finance. since the present prospect
is that there will be little money COM
ing in during the fall from the regu-
lar tax levy to meet the expense Of
running the schools. No suggestions
along this line have yet been publicly
made.

FLOUR SALES VOID,
Minneapolis Millcrs Learn That Large
Sales of Flour to u London Man
Were Unauthorized.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Oct. 7.-Local
millers learned today that some Of the
purchases of American and Canadian
flour in London in the last ten days,
presumably for foreign governments,
were made by an irresponsible person.
The importers will stand the loss, if
any. say the local men. Some Of the
Minneapolis firms had sold flour to
their London agents that was to go
to this man.
The news was said to have created
q sensation on the London market
yesterday. Some Of the sales were i'm
mediately cancelled.
A cablegram from London, today
received by The Northwestern Miller,
states that the unauthorized purchases
to 100000 bags. Accord
ing to the cable this person failed two
years ago, but was we'll known on the
market and told plausible story,
causing importers to believe that his
purchases were for the Belgian and
French governments.

Augusta Cotton Market.

Augusta, Oct. THE outlook does
not seem favorable for a higher mar
Ket' yet we do not believe the price

confidently predicting six cents, but

to spinners and investors if they could

the stringency in the money situation.
war always makes timid people hoard
and causes conservatism on the part
OF banks, and this war his tied ND ev-
erything. We can relieve the situation
In this section by selling a part Of our
cotton and paying our debts. This
can be done without forcing any Of it
on the market and would make IT, easy
TO carry the remainder Of the crop. AS
matters now stand, banks are unwil-

that If a big surplus Is carried over
cotton will be lower next fall than
1T Is today. They say they furnished

mcnts for Passing q Year Without
Cultivation Of Cotton.

w. j. Davis Of Jackson. Miss. has

Is one Of the wealthiest men in the
state OF Mississippi and as a large cot
ton planter. banker and manufacturer
mas made success of every enterprise
with which he has been connected
People Informed as to beef cattle in
the South will recognize Mr.. Davis as
the owner of perhaps the finest herd
OF Hereford cattle not only I'm the
south but In the United States. His
hrst estimate Is based on planting no
cotton In 1916. lie supposes IL we cut
the acreage 80 per cent I'm 1916 that
we will produce 10000. 900 bales, as
We will better cultivate and perhaps
better fertilize the half crop IL we
plant 1t. Should you agree that his
hgures are approximately correct you
can better feed your tenants in 1916
and let them fish the whole season.
hut this Is not necessary. We can
spend the year learning how to farm
with crops just as valuable as cotton
and can. by planting peas and cover
crops. add fully IS per acre to all our
lands In the way of enhanced fertility.
The Southern Cotton association has
sent a number Cs workers to Texas to
help develop public sentiment favoring
laws to cut out cotton acreage In 1915.
All eyes are now turned to the legisla-
lures OF South Carolina and Texas. III
we take the lead In this legislation all
the other States will likely follow. An
enthusiastic delegate from Mississippi
In his special said: IF South Carolina
Will now take the stand. Texas will
gladly take her by the hand" Elimi-
