PEANUTS AFTER GRAIN
as EMERGENCY FOOD SUPPLY

Clemson College, S. c., June 20.--The
peanut Will furnish more costly focd
elements, for human Or live stock
than any crop that can be planted
during June and early July. It is
rich in protein, which is substitute
for meats; rich in carbohydrates, a
substitute for white bread; rich in
oil which is a substitute for butter
or other fats required by the human
or animal system. Any vigorous fam
ily would be we'll fed with practically
a balanced ration, if it had only
Irish potatoes and peanuts three times
a day. Both crops can be planted on
grain lands up to July Is, July Is be-
ing probably the ideal time for plant
ing potatoes for fall crop. The White
Spanish peanut is the most prolific
variety, and can be grown in rows
"a to 80 inches wide, and to inch
es in the drill. After turning the
stubble, thoroughly harrow with
smoothing harrow, and plant nuts,
on level, using 800 to 600 pounds
of a mixture Of two-thirds Of Is per
cent acid phosphate and one-tnlru
of cotton seed meal If it rains be-
fore the nuts are up, by all means
run the smoothing harrow or weeder
over the grass and weed seeds and to
conserve moisture Shallowly cult
vate after each rain, and when nuts
are mature, run one-horse plow,
with mould board or wing" remOv-
ed under each row. Allow to wilt
and then stack around polls about 5
to feet high. (after mailing two
strips cross-wise of poll, about 8
inhes from ground) with nuts toward
the poll Cap well with grass. or 9TH
er similar material, and let stand
about four weeks, or until dry. Haul
to barn, remove nuts for family use,
or feed tops and nuts to livestock.

We were forced to leave out good
bit of local matter from the last is
sue because of the large amount We
printed about the Red Cross work.
We felt that accounts of weddings
and some other things would be just
as good for this issue and the Red
Cross matter would not keep, that is
the part that referred to the cam
Daign which has been on this week.
We simply make this statement by
way OF explanation of the absense
of some matter that We print today
that should have appeared on Tues
day.

The request of the reformers in
South Carolina for representation on
the exemption boards is not unusual
or peculiar to South Carolina. We
have it on good authority as coming
from Gen. Crowder, the Provost Mar
shall General, that there is objection
to the personnel of the boards in 29
other States. So Gov. Manning may
not feel so bad about his recommend
ations.-
In a matter of this kind it does
seem, however, that Gov. Manning
might be able to find among the TO-
0s0 voters in South Carolina
who did not vote for him few men
who in his opinion even might be fit
men for some of the places he is fill
ing, not that there is any profit in it,
but it would at least have the appear
ance of fairness on the part of the
appointing power.
We guess there will be no discrim-
ination when it comes to filing up
the ranks with the boys who have to
go on the firing lines. The governor
will not confne his selections then
to the ranks Of his supporters. Know
ing that, is one reason why those
who did not support him feel that
they should have some representa-
item on the exemption boards. These
are the men who are to make the
selections for the firing line and for
the ranks.
The governor proclaimed on the
stump that he was going to be: the
governor of all the people, and that
he would know no faction. Certainly
this is a time and this is matter in
which he should rise above factional
politics.
Some time ago when he was going
to make selections for registrars he
called the county chairmen from al!
the counties, so it was stated in the
papers, and it was stated that all the
chairmen of the counties were there
except from, four counties. Those
four happened to be men who had not
supported him and they we're not In
vited to be there. From Newberry
Mr.. F. R. Hunter wrote the governor
and told him he would be glad to CO.
operate in any way he could, but was
not invited to the meeting Of the
ehairmen. Another Newberry citizen.
a supporter of the governor, was in
vited z:
We mention these things te show
that the partisanship is not all on
one side. We do not approve Of such
partisanship in any one. And at
this time there should be cooperation
and pulling together of all men and
factions, but-well, you know what
we mean.
Mr.. Watson of the Greenwood Index
says that Mr.. Dominick appears a
pigmy by the side Of DIN Sawyer.
Well, what do you think of your gov
ernor? What does he appear like to
you? If he is not using the smallest
of small politics then we may be a
pigmy in your sight also. We are
not expecting anything at the hands
of the governor, we have not asked
anything from him and do not expect
to ask anything, but what is fair and
right and Just. His appointments in
this county are satisfactory to US
The two men that he appointed chair
men of the two boards in this county
were already members of State boards
by his appointment. They are good
and capable men and We have no
kick coming against them. But there
are some men in this county who did
mot vote for Gov Manning who are
just az good and as loyal.

DULLNESS MARKS
LOCAL TRADING
Small Lots of Utilities Feature Sales.
Money Is Strong,

Extreme dullness characterized yes
terday's session of the local stock
exchange. Business in the majority
WAS confined entirely to a few odd
lots Of utility shares at TTIz to a 3-S
for Railway preferred; S2h TO S2h for
Capital Traction and 725z for WASH
inston Gas shares.
The session was marked by no alb
sence OF any selling pressure and an
equal scarcity of buying orders. This
condition of affairs is but natural
In view of the general uneasiness and
the shrinking prices Of American In
vestments on the more prominent
markets.
Owing to urgent demands for funds
in the varied enterprises now being
pushed to a conclusion, and in pro-
duction to capacity, the money market
is very strong.
Borrowers are refraining from tran
sactions that are not important, and
lenders are moving cautiously in the
face of the big financing demands
that will soon come from the govern
ment
Call loans were yesterday made up
