GETS CLOSE SHAVE IN HOUSE.
Warehouse System Not Ovcr-PopuIar.
Objection tD McLauIin.

Columbia, Jan. 27.--The work Of
the extraordinary session OF the Gen
eral Assembly is having a rather
rough time with this General Assem-
bly,. Only day or two ago the cot
ton acreage reduction bill was over
whelmingly disapproved so far as the
House was concerned. To-day the
House let the warehose bill survive,
but 1t had surprisingly close shave.
The official record was a vote Of 65
to 52 to save the warehouse system.
The vote indicates that the ware
house system is in bad shape, so far
as legislation is concerned, and that
1t is going to have some hard sliding
II appropriations rae wanted be-
cause to-day's vote was simply upon
the question Of repeating the ware
house law outright, and the appeals
were made largely on the ground Of
giving the system a trial.
Objection to McLaurin.
There was no mistaking the fact
that there is objection to Mr.. McLau-
rim as commissioner. This fact was
plainly stated in the argument of Mr.
Frombcrg, Of Charleston, who was in
faVor Of the retention of the system,
and 1t was intimated that if Mr.. Nc
Laurin's personality in connection
with the warehouse was obiectiona-
bic that he would retire rather than
Jeopardize the system. "A bill to re-
peal the statute, offered within 90
days after it's passage, and without
much OF chance for the plan to re-
ceive over 90 votes is strikingly en-
phatic.

DOING ENGLAND'S DIRTY WORK?
Grown Prince Delivers Message to the
American People.

Geneva, via Paris, Jan. 29.-Crown
Prince Frederick William has sent to
the local correspondent Of the Asso-
ciated Press, in response to request
for statement, the following reply,
dated near Verdun, January %:
You ask me to send a message to
the American people. Being an Off
Ger and no diplomat, | have no right
to do so, but if you like / will tell
you three things:
First, every single German and
Austrian is quite certain that we will
come out on top and will give his last
drop Of blood to this end.
Second, we are convinced that the
day will come when the people of
Russia and France will find out that
they are only doing the dirty work
for England
Third, we expect from America
absolutely fair play in all questions.
"These are my personal ideas but
good many Of my countrymen feel
the same. Greetings.

time had come to stand or fall. The
French were now on marked ranges
and in this had an advantage over
the Germans. In the determination
that the French must either turn
back the invaders or give up the
struggle, Joffre released the ammu-
milton and told the gunners to fire
to their hearts content. Five days
of continuous fighting would have
entirely exhausted the French sup
ply. But three days sufticed to send
the Germans back.
Since then, he said, there has been
no lack Of "75" shells, for the Brit
ish factories have been supplement-
ing the French in their production.

Big Saving to Farmer and City Man

Atlanta, Ga-(Special.) )-The farm.
er who makes and keeps going this
year real home garden, will save
1ully one-half the money he has Deen
In the habit Of paying the supply mer.
chant for his food supplies. The man
with back yard city lot, turned into
garden, can save on his living ex.
penses In the same proportion.
The man in the city has been hit
Dy the war just as hard as the man
in the country, and here in Atlanta the
Agricultural Committee of the Atlanta
Chamber OF Commerce, of which II. G.
Hastings is chairman, is actively en-.
couraging the back yard city garden
as one or the most effective steps in
solving the problem OF living. One At.
lantan made $3.50 worth of vegetables
last year on less than one-sixteenth of
an acre. Others have been encourag.
ed to try it, and this spring will see
Atlanta full Of home gardens.
THE farmers Of the South, in my
opinion" Mr. Hastings said, "have
well learned the lesson Of the cotton
crisis, and | believe they are going to
keep 1t learned. They realize now as
never before that they must make
cotton their servant instead of their
master, and making food crops is the
only way to do it.
1.-The first big step toward the solu-
ton Of this problem is the home gar.
den-an all-the-yearround garden
one that is kept busy growing food for
the table every month in the year. A
garden like this means a saving Of
half the living expense Of any family;
it is worth more as money saver
than any five acres Of cotton ever
grown.
city families pay fancy prices for
vegetables and other food products
which the farmer can have on his ta
BILE without the expenditure Of a dol
lar, and this would mean to the farm
ers Of the South an aggregate saving
Of millions Of dollars they are now
paying out annually for food supplies.

More About Housing Cotton.
Progressive Farmer)

Progressive FarmerD
The Statesville Landmark repeats
our warning against leaving cotton
bales out in the weather, and adds:
1T is strange that people will ex-
pend so much time and money and
energy to produce something and
then deliberately throw part of it
away. It's no excuse to say the
price of cotton is low. 1t makes the
price still lower to throw away part
Of it after you have saved it. If the
idea is to throw away a part Of the
cotton it would be less expensive to
leave 1T in the field"
If anybody thinks the buyer is fool
enough to pay for water, he is fool
himself. The farmer who leaves cot
ton on the wet ground will lose $40
in grade for every 81 he expects to
gain in weight-but won't.
