OUR UNPREPAREDNESS

ilLtlc over one year ago practical
ly every citizen Of this country not
connected with our land or naval fore
es firmly beloved that the United
states could easily whip any nation in
Il defensive or offensive encounter
And even today, Notwithstanding the
astounding lessons learned from the
titanic European struggle, the aver
age american still believes that We
could Jump right into war with any
one Of The first class nations and con
quer without much trouble Baslxing
in the sunshine Of peace and living in
freedom from serious international
complications VIC have allowed our
ronccit to close our eyes to our eX-
IRENE weaknesses. As matter Of
1acl we arc immeasUrably weaker in
military strength than any of the first
class powers and much weaker than
several Of the second and third class
powers
The history Of the part England has
plaN'd in the present war has served
moro than anything else to convince
many Of our ridculously miniature
army. England, the weakest Of the
SIN great nations in land forces, was
ablc 10 send an army of about 800 900
trained men TO aid France. Comparcd
WIN me trained men furnished by
Franc" and Russia on one side and
Germany and Austria on the other,
these three hundred thousand men
formed just a mere handful and were
soon lost from Wow in the great strug-
gle. Yet The total trained force that
We could afford to send on a foreign
expedition on short notice would bo
JuSt about onc-fiftcenth Of that which
En%land, the weakest nation, sent or
in actual numbers, 10000 men.
our 10000 partially trained and
cNuppcd militia would be able to join
them N about eight weeks. It would
be easily six months before any more
troops could be sufficiently trained to
lIacr in battle. As to our navy we
now rank fourth and at the rate we
are building ships We will drop to
c.@hth place in the next two years.
Ih@ge is just one bright spot in all
OF our fighting forces and that is our
coast dcfenscs. According to OK
president and cx-Sccrctary of War
'iait we arc as well equipped with
coast defense as any nation OF the
world but coast dcfcnccs without the
assistance Of naval and land forces
could neither protect us long nor lead
rs TO Victory
Opponents OF expanding the army
ana navy say that millions of Amcri-
cans would volunteer at the first can
To arms; bu. millions Of unframed and
nn-eHniDpcd men would be useless FOR
months.

CREAMERY CLUB
WAS ORGANIZED

day and Completed Organization OF

Now Prospect Citizens Met Last Fri.
day and Completed Organization Of
Club.
Many progressive citizens Of the
New Prospect section Of this county
met last Friday and organized a
creamery club. Fifteen members were
enrolled at the meeting and fifty COWS
were entered for the service. The
creamery club idea is being thorough
ly boosted by the experts at Clemson
College and this local club is based
on the facts and figures furnished by
the authorities there. The Clemson
authorities are willing to give all the
aid possible in creating these cream
cries over the state and they will in
all probability send an inspector to
New Prospect to help in selecting the
most convenient route.
AT the meeting last Friday Mr.. ]. Fl.
Powers was elected president of the
organization and Mr.. w. II. Clink-
scales was elected secretary. It is to
these two hustling farmers that most
of the credit is due for this progress
sve movement. 1t is the first in this
county but those who are interested
in the welfare Of the county as a
whole are hoping that other sections
will take up the matter in the near
future. They have been operated most
successfully in many other sections Of
the state and undoubtedly can be
made just as successful if not more
SO In Laurens county.

BUILD UP TIE SOIL
BY USE OF LEGUMES

Let These Gathcrers Of Nitrogen Share
tho Farm This Winter With Oats
and Wheat.
Clemson College, August 1G.-For
three years the demonstration forces
Of Clemson College and the United
put soil-building in the very front of
the things they have been teaching
South Carolina farmers, for the rea-
son that they believed that the most
serious limiting factor in Southern ag-
riculturc is the lack Of humus, or de-
caycd vegetable matter, in the soil.
Giant strides in soil-bulding have
been taken by the state during these
three years, but there are many farms
which have not yet felt the invigorat-
ing influence of good Soil-buiiding
methods and this work will be con-
;inued cncrgetically until the state has
been completely won to soil-building.
Many experiments have proved that
the quickest and most economical way
to build up worn-out soils is by using
the winter lcgumcs. such as burr and
crimson clover and vctch. The use of
the clovcrs and vctchcs as winter
cover crops was accordingly made the
onstration forces and the results since
1909, when South Carolina had only
3S7 acres in clover Of ali kinds, arc
commonly known.
Last fall, owing to the advisablity
of growing money crops during winter
and to the difficulty of obtaining win
ter lcgumc seed, Clemson College
used its principal efforts to have farm
crs seed their land to wheat and oats
and the results have justified this.
But there was necessarily not SO big
an acreage in winter lcgumes last
year as there would have been had tho
war not begun when it did.
This year, moreover, Clemson Coll
lCgc is again urging farmers TO SOW
that there will be less interest in
clover than there would have been
had this been a year Of normal condi-
tiOnS.
Nevertheless, Clemson College urges
farmers to remember that farmers
first need is good land and that in
South Carolina much of thp land can
not be called good land, because it is
lacking in humus While farmer is
planning to .Sow his oats and wheat
this fall he should prepare also to
plant burr or crimson clover. The
clover will gather nitrogen from the
air for him, as no other crops hut the
lCgnmGs can do, and if he turns them
under in spring, they will give him not
only new, free supply Of nitrogen.
but large quantity Of humus as VOL.
Any farmer who IS trying 60 reduce
his fertilizer bills should by all means
grow The clovcrS this winter. BY sup.
plying nitrogen ana a large mass Of
hUmus, which uuloCks some Of the
plant food IN all soil, continued use
Of the clovcrs can save at least one
half of q mans fertilizer bill Tho ar
gnlncnts in favor Of sowing winter
loGumcs are many. Let these gather
ems OF nitrogen share your farm tI!s
winter with oats and wheat
