There may be question as to wheth-
er it is desirable to have two demon
stration agents in York county; but as
The ENQUIRER has already pointed out,
the proposition that since there Is a
demonstration agent on the western
side" there should be one in the east
ern side. is untenable. 1t is true that
the regular official demonstrators,
supported from funds Of the general
educational board. resides in the
western side; but Is nevertheless not
the demonstration agent Of the west
ern side" but Of the whole county. Be-
cause the general educational board Is
maintaining at it's own expense
county demonstrator who happens to
reside in the western side, Is no rea-
son i'm the world why the people OF the
county should go down into their
pockets to maintain a demonstration
agent especially for the eastern side.
At the same time If the eastern side
or any other side sees proper to go
down into it's pocket, as the general
educational board does. and MAINTAIN
q demonstration agent at it's own eX-
pense, nobody has any right to object.
But don't let us get into our heads the
idea that because the general educa-
tional board is paying the expenses of
a demonstration, who does not happen
to make his home in the eastern side,
the county should make up this little
difference by itself paying the ex-
penses of an agent in the eastern side.

A business story from Wagener. S.

A business story from Wagener, 5.
c., carries with it. it seems to us. very
considerable significance at this time.
Some time ago, VI, f. jackson, presi-
dent Of the Bank Of Wagner, organ
lied a warehouse with a capacity Of
1000 bales and put it under proper
bond. His bank is a member Of the
Federal Reserve system. Some days
back as an experiment. he sent to the
Regional Reserve bank at Richmond
the notes Of five farmers, each backed
by collateral in the shape of ware
house certificates, each calling for five
bales of cotton. valued at $50 each.
The Regional Reserve bank readily
discounted the notes, and then Mr..
Jackson began to send others, until
altogether he has in like manner
borrowed over $4,000. The money
has been turned loose in the commu
nifty and the givers of the notes still
have the title to their cotton. AS 10
the length of time the Regional Re-
serve bank has agreed to carry the
notes is not stated; but this is largely
in the discretion of the Federal Re-
serve board. The law on the subject
is as follows: Provided, That notes,
drafts and bills drawn or issued for
agricultural purposes or based on live
stock and having a maturity not ex-
ceeding six months. may be discount
ed in an amount to be limited to Il
percentage of the capital Of the re-
serve bank To he ascertained and fix
ed by the Federal Reserve Board" AS

The War.

The war has been going on during
the past week with all the fierceness
that has marked it's course from the
beginning, but there have been no
decisive results that seem to be worth
especial attention.
The allies have been pushing their
offensive against the Germans in the
western theatre with as much activity
as possible; but the Germans seem to
be holding their own as steadily as
heretofore, and although both sides
are suffering terribly from the horrible
weather conditions and the fighting,
there have been no definite gains on
either side. On the eastern side the
Germans are still hammering at the
Russians, with what results cannot be
definitely stated; but from the reports
the Russians appear to be holding
their own.
The Vistula, upon which Warsaw,
the capital of Poland stands, appears
to bear very considerable strategic i'm
portance to the fighting in connection
with the capture Of that city. I'm
mense armies of Russians and Ger
mans are facing each other in the
pending operations, and important
developments are expected to follow
the freezing over of the river, which
is likely to occur at any time.
German aeroplanes dropped some
shells on Dover a few days ago; but
did no important damage, and French
aeroplanes have been dropping shells
at various points in Germany.
An English fleet made an attack on
a small German seaport a few days
ago; but accomplished no very con-
siderable result in so far as damage
was concerned.
Interest continues to centre on the
expected coming out Of the German
fleet and the terrible naval battle that
Is likely to follow; but as to what is
likely to happen in this regard, the
public can have no definite idea.

concludes, "the value Of demonstra-

activities in this direction to plague

actual advances in price. There are
people now who will strain themselves
to raise more cotton in the belief that
other people cannot do 1t. and the
next crop will be small enough to war

next spring is only to plant such cot
