THE WHEAT SITUATION

In reviewing the wheat situation
in it's financial department, the Lit
erary Digest calls attention to the
fact that in response to many inquir-
les from all parts of the country, the
Department of Agriculture recently
issued statements showing our sup
plies. consumption, and exports of
wheat the inquiries having been
called forth by depletions of our sup
plies through heavy expectations. 1t
is estimated by the department that
in 1914 the total amount of wheat
produced in this country and brought
over from the previous year was
967,00O,000 bushels, of which $780,
100000 bushels were required Tor
home consumption and 90,000,0OO
TOR seeding. These figures left
surplus of 357,000,0O0 bushels, of
which up to February of this year
.21O.OOO,OOO bushels had been ex-
ported, leaving for export between
February and July (when the new
crop begins to appear) 147O0O,OOO
bushels. That amount would permit
of exports daily until July of about
1000, 700 bushels but it would leave
no stock to carry over into the new
year.
B. Frank Howard, a careful sta
tistician, is quoted in the New York
Evening Post as estimating the farm
reserves on February l as 26S'OOO,-
900 bushels, which is practically the
same amount that existed on farms
last year. During the recent seven
months there have been moved from
farms 595,O00,OOO bushels, an
amount greater by 128'OOO,OOo
bushels than the wheat moved dur
ing the same period of the previous
year. Mr.. Towards estimate OF the

wheat now available for export ac-
cords substantially with the one
made by the Department of Agricul-
ture. When account is taken of 9TH
er wheat already sold but which is
TO be exported later, our surplus will
nave been practically exhausted. As
Tor the crop for 1915, writer in the
same paper says:
indications are that there may be
another 10000 0,000-bushel crop this
season unless conditions are most un-
favorable. An average yield of IS
bushels per acre on 100000 acres
OF winter wheat will give a crop
of 615,000,000 bushels. Last year
the yield per acre was 10 bushels
and crop 6S5, 100000 bushels. A
yield of II bushels this year ON the
acreage seeded last fall would give
697,O00,000 bushels.
with a favorable spring, extra eff
forts are certain to be made to put
IN largely increased acreage of
spring wheat. Should 10000, coo
acres be seeded, as is expected, that
will give an aggregate of 10000, 900
acres, allowing for loss of 1,OOO,-
600 acres from winter killing. On
10 bushels per acre, which is a low
figure, this would work out 100000
600 bushels, or 100000 bushels
more than were harvested last year.
Were this country to market another
900, 900, 000-bushel crop at around
81 per bushel or better, it would be
an interesting tribute to this coun-
trys economic power. But weather
conditions during the next seven
months, will have much to say about
it,"

WILL
BE INVOKED

Referendum proceedings have
been filed against the three election
measures passed by the recent legis-
lature over Governor Listers veto,
the joint legislative committee rep
resenting the State Federation of
Labor, State Grange, Farmers Union
and Direct Legislation League taking
this action.
These measures, with the num-
bers assigned them for referendum
purposes, are:
Referendum No. 3-Providing
that initiative and referendum petit
tions must be signed at registration
offices.
Referendum No. Providing that
recall petitions must be signed at
registration offices.
Referendum No. 5-"Whitney"
elections bill, legalizing party con-
ventions and pledging candidates to
follow programs adopted by these
conventions.
The newly organized Washington
State Referendum League has also
filed referendum proceedings against
the certificate of public necessity
bill, the budget bill for cities and
counties, the Seattle port commission
bill and the anti-picketing bill.
Secretary of State l. NJ. Howell de-
clined to receive referendum filings
proffered by this organization against
the 'jitney bus" bill and the Renick
bill prohibiting diversion of city
funds to other uses, on account of
the emergency clauses affixed to
these measures. Supreme court pro-
ceedings will be taken in an effort
to compel the acceptance of filings.

REAL BOOSTERS

For genuine enterprise and en-
thusiasm bunch of Lewiston, Idaho,
boosters take the cake. AS the state
failed to make sufficient appropria-
lions for good roads, these boosters
have started a campaign to bond Nez
Perez county for 100000, the
money to be used in the construction
of a paved road with a four per cent
grade up the hill to the state line,
near Uniontown, and for building
roads in other parts of the county.
1t is a big proposition and lots of
nerve is required to father it, but
these gentlemen are going about it
with an energy and enthusiasm which
is contagious and promises to win
over the support of many of the
farmers.
After all the farmers probably get
more benefit from the money spent
on the roads than from that expend-
ed for any other kind of county work
and a permanent, well constructed
road is always a good investment. If
this proposition should go through
the people of the Pacific Northwest
will take off their hats to the Nez
Perez good roads enthusiasts.

Ten persons are in the York county
Jail expecting trial when the summer
term Of the court Of general sessions
conyenes in the new courthouse next
Tuesday. There are, as usual, quite
a number Of defendants out on bond;
but it is hardly probable that any Of
these cases will come to trial, unless
it be the case against J. s. Steven
son, the young Bullocks Creek town
ship man who Is charged with the
killing Of John w. Hafner several
weeks ago.
The state has not yet disposed Of its
case against Marion Foster, the young
white man who is charged with aid
ing and abetting in the escape Of ].
r. Wyatt. When the case was tried
in February a mistrial resulted. There
is little probability Of second
trial Of the case at this term.
Those awaiting trial and the charges
against them are as follows:
Arnold Johnson, arson; John Cure
ton, murder; Martha Smith, assault
and battery with intent to kill; Law
renee Boyd, assault and battery with
intent to kill; Henry Oliver, house
breaking and larceny; Ella McQuilla,
murder; Press King, violation Of the

sault and battery with intent to kill;

OAK RIDGE SCHOOL

"Oak Ridge school Is indeed taking
a progressive step in taking over the
Winthrop College Model Farm
School," observed Superintendent OF
Education Carroll yesterday, in speak
ing of the action Of Oak Ridge in Of
fering money and a site for the school
Patrons of the Oak Ridge school
have had this matter under considera-
ton for several months and last Fri
day night decided to seek the school
At the meeting Friday night 1t was
pointed out that it would be necessary
to make an addition of two rooms to
the Oak Ridge school house and to
build a cottage for the use Of Mrs
Hetty S. Browne and her assistan,
teachers who propose to live there.
At the meeting last Friday night
Mr.. John H. Steele, who Is member
of the board Of trustees Of the school
district, offered to donate a tract OF
several acres for the use Of the farm
school and his offer will be accepted
school district, No. 29. 1t Is under
stood that several other patrons were
willing to donate a tract OF land fol
the purpose.
Winthrop college proposes to pay
the salaries Of Mrs. Brown and heI
assistant teachers, and this will entail
an expenditure Of about $4,000 year
on the part Of the college. Oak Ridge
school district will bear all other ex.
penses in connection with the opera.
ton of this model school, the first OF
its kind in South Carolina and prob.
ably in the south. The expense to the
Oak Ridge district in erecting the
teachers home and making improve
ments to the school building will be
in the neighborhood Of $4,000. Pa
irons of the district have not yet de.
cided how they will raise this money
although it has been definitely agreed
that 1t will be raised.
Oak Ridge school Is about three
miles from Winthrop college. Stu.
dents from Winthrop will be sem
there at intervals to study methods
used there. Pupils attending the
school and there will be quite large
number, since the district has also
adopted compulsory education, will a.
ali times be brought into contact with
agriculture and a study Of the soil
Mrs. Brown bears a national reputa'
ton on account OF her unique methods
Of instructing children.
Incidentally Oak Ridge school dis
trict and that community will come In
for a great deal Of advertising on ac'
count Of their progressive venture.
"It Is largely an experiment" says
Superintendent Carroll, "a revolution
so to speak, in the methods OF teach.
ing in the schools of York county
was anxious that all patrons Of the
district favor the venture before !,
was tried. It was evident that all ap-
prove the action. I, as we'll as the
other teachers and school authorities
in the county, will watch the expert
ment with interest"

One of the most practical and SEN
sible talks that was made to the edi-
tors at Chick Springs last week, was
by Capt. Reid Whitford of Charles
ton, on the subject of road buildings.
Capt. Whitford has charge of the road
and drainage work in Charleston
county, and he has made progress that
has attracted the attention of that
whole section. He took the position
that the need for road construction
was primarily a commercial need, and
the main purpose always to be kept in
view was the development of business
and commercial intercourse between
neighboring localities. The matter of
pleasure riding in automobiles is a
secondary consideration. Roads are
to be built in such manner as to facil-
itate heavier traffic-to enable a great
er amount of transportation with less
horsepower, and to do it cheaper. He
reviewed the large amount of effort
that had been expended in aimless ef-
forts at road improvement, generally
resulting in the development of piece
of local road that started nowhere
and went nowhere. and which soon
deteriorateS for lack of attention. The
burden of his message was that all
road improvement should be of a per-
