SEED MUST CARRY PERMIT.
Cotton Seed Sold for Planting
Must be Free Of AnthracnOSe.

Clemson College, October A.
South Carolina farmers have in the
regulations of the State Crop Pest
Commission a valuable protection
against the introduction of cotton
anthracnose into their fields in seed
bought for planting. The law re-
quires that shippers of seed for
planting file with the commission an
affidavit setting forth that the seed
is from field free of anthracnose
and shippers are also required to at
tach to their seed tags informing
the buyer that they have a permit
to sell under this section. The reg
ulation is as follows:
Cotton seed for planting, origi-
mating outside of boil weevil infest-
ed territory, coming from other
States, Provinces, or foreign coun-
tries, and consigned to points within
this State. or cotton seed for plant
ing originating in this State and
transported or sold within South
Carolina, shall have attached to
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1915-10-14

every consignment permit issued
by the South Carolina State Crop
Pest Commission. Permits are is
sued only after an affidavit has been
made by the shipper and filed with
State Crop Pest Commission, stating
that in case of staple cotton, less
than five per cent, and in case of
short staple cotton, less than one
per cent of the bolls in the field Of
cotton from which the seed were
taken shall show evidence of the
presence of anthracnose.
Farmers ordering seed are urged
to look for these tags on every ship
ment. They have a right to pre-
sumo that any shipment of seed for
planting that does not bear tag is
from a diseased field. They should
be very cautious about accepting
any such seed and should notify the
State Crop Pest Commission, at Clem-
son College, cs any violations of this
regulation that come to their at
tention.

BY CONGRESSMAN CLYDE H.
TAVENNER.

/. It would require several yo.umes to
cover all the transactions deserving
publicity concerning armer. Let it be
sufficient in passing to say that the
government purchase of armor has
been a scandal from start to finish.
The conduct Of the armor ring in deal
ing with the government averages
throughout at leas. 80 per cent rotten.
There have been nine official esti-
mates as to the actual cost Of the
manufacture of a ton Of armor plate.
The average estimate is $247.17 per
ton. Yet since 1887 we have purchased
217,379 tons or armor, paying the ar
NOR ring an average of $4,000 per ton,
or a total of $95, 656,240. I believe l
am well within the bounds Of conserv-
atism when say that If all this ar
NOR had been manufactured in a gov
eminent plant at least $S5, 100000
would have been saved to the Ameri-
can taxpayers, and armor is one OF the
things being purchased by the army
and navy under similar conditions.
Secretary Daniels has asked con-
gress for an appropriation for a gov
eminent armor plate factory, but thus
far congress has refused him.
: If the government builds an armor
plant and a paddock is placed on Its
doors as soon as it is completed, and
it is never used, it will, in the opin-
ion of Secretary Daniels, pay for IT.
self simply by enabling him to obtain
fair treatment from the armor manu-
facturers.
Army and navy officers generally
are opposed to complete government
manufacture of munitions Of war. tax
ing the position that it is the part or
wisdom for the government to encour-
age private manufacturers to operate
plants so that they may be available
intime Of war. Experience has shown,
however, that instead Of periodically
coming to the relief of the govern
ment in time of war the war traders
take advantage of the necessities OF
the government, which is at their
mercy, and boost their prices. For
instance, when the war with Spain
was imminent the armor manufac-
turers practically issued an ultimatum
to the government that they would not
manufacture single piece of armor
plate unless the government should
agree to pay them 500 a ton more
than the price fixed by congress after
an investigation as a fair price. And
it is also worthy Of notice that their
patriotism did not prevent them from
selling armor to Russia for $249 ton,
while they were asking their own gov
eminent 1915 ton.
Armor Plate Patriotism Is World
Wide.
There appears to be no real compe-
titfon between the armor manufac-
turers Of the various countries. Once,

The World " ide War Trust

in 1898, the American armorrinf made
noise like competition when it sold
armor to Russia for $249 while charg-
ing the United States $616, and for a
time great CONSERVATION prevailed in
the ranks of the war trusts of the va
rious nations.
But during this period the armor
manufacturers of the world met in
Paris, and since then there has been
little or no competition worthy Of the
name. The armor manufac turers asked
themselves why they should cut each
others threats and why It would not
be to their advantage to receive $500
or $500 ton instead Of 5000 or $500.
In the naval hearings for 1914, page
|621, the present Secretary of the Navy,
Josephus Daniels, used the following
language in referring to an advertise
ment for bids for armor plate for the
dreadnaught Pennsylvania:
when we came to the armor we
rejected all the bids and were then abb
solutely in situation from which it
appeared there was no, relief. Though
you cannot establish it in. black and
white, there fsn6 doubteof an armor
plate trust all over the world. That
is to say, the people abroad who make
armor plate will not come here and
submit bids, because they know If
they do our manufacturers will go
abroad and submit bids. They have
divided the world. like Gaul. into three
parts"

they could purchase or have new bar

In many cases the barrel is not by
any means a sanitary barrel, but are
used just the same. Monday the bar

Prosperity again seems not far on.
The big coal strike has been adjusted
as well as difficulties in other crafts.
and things are gradually coming back
to normal. 1t has been remarked by
authorities over the river that the coal
miners strike Ras the best conducted
strike of surh Importance ever rarried
on. And throash all the miners
weary struggles they have had but
one newspaper to support them. That
newspaper is the Majority, whish has

victory is also victory for the Ma

way. II has no capitalists back of it.
If it had, the chances are that it would
not be supporting the workers. It has
no donations. It seeks no charity. It
gives full value for every cent receiv-
