Statement on Crop Conditions
by Cotton Association.

Columbia, June 21.-A gloomy
picture of crop conditions in the
South is painted by the American
Cotton Association in statement is
sued yesterday. Ravages of the boil
weevil, the shortage Of labor and
other factors, it says are contributing
towards making the crop this year
the shortest in history.
During the last half century of
the cotton production no conditions
of the crop up to the first of June has
even been so low as that recently
published blythe United States crop
reporting board. At no time in the
history of the boil weevil has that in
sect appeared so early to begin de-
struction on the cotton production in
this county nor the shortage of labor
been so acute or the cost of farm sup
plies and Governmental statistics on
raw cotton in this country and in Eu-
rope show that present supplies of
spinnable cotton, comparatively, are
less than ever before in the History
fo cotton. At the same time Ameri-
can and foreign mills are running on
full time, with their outputs contract
ed for months ahead. This is the sit
uation as shown by the facts in the
field of production, supplies of raw
cotton and manufacture.
"The first week in June showed
some sunshine to warm up and in
vigorate the belated young crop for a
start. Immediately the bears made a
charge and down goes the price of
contracts as the season advances un-
til the future contract falls far below
the actual cost of the fiber. The
bears sell something they haven't got
and want contract market, the SELL
er has all the advantage, and in the
open local markets the buyers have
all the advantage. 1t seems to US that
the open buyer of future contract
ought to have equal rights with the
speculative seller of the contract. We
are convinced that the buyer, the
holder of spot cotton should not per-
NIT that sentimental influences on
prices in he exchanges to affect the
real values of their present holdings
of what they may produce in 1920.
If it cost 3S cents to produce a
pound of cotton in 1919, the present
price of such grades show but little
profit to the. growers, while October
contracts are being quoted several
cents under the cost of production
and are going down every day."

South Carolina Potato Grow
ers to Organize.

A very important meeting of far
mers and business men will be held
in Columbia at the Offices of the
South Carolina Development Board
at noon, June 29th to discuss the
needs Of the sweet potato growers of
the state. Below are the things that
will be discussed: (1) Proper har-
vesting, grading and packing the
sweet potato crop: (2) Proper stor-
ing and curing the crop: (3) Arrang-
ing the markets for the crop of 1920:
(4) Arranging to secure disease free
seed and to standardize the varieties
for the crop of 1921. Since this meet
ing is for the purpose of making the
sweet potato a crop of great CONNER
cial value to our state under boil
weevil conditions, we should have a
great crowd there to get the industry
founded on solid basis. Unless we
have an organization perfected TO
promote and handle the potato crop
we can not expect to have the success
with the business as we should.
Edgefeld county should have far
mers from various sections of the
county to represent US at this meet
ing. County Agent Carwile tells US
that he expects to go and wants rep
from all over the county
to be present also. Mr.. Tenny, of the
North American Fruit Exchange, the
man who has handled the asparagus
crop for the South Carolina growers,
will be present to aid the South Caro-
lima Potato Growers Association to
get them started properly.

Margaret Wilson Has to Bor.
row Dime From Conductor
to Pay Fare.

New York, June 20.-Miss Mar
garet Wilson, daughter of the presi-
dent discovered she was "broke"
while riding on Fifth avenue bus
recently borrowed ten cents from
the conductor to pay her fare, ac-
cording to the current issue Of Bus
Lines, the bus company's periodical.
She mounted the bus at Thirty
Fourth street and Fifth avenue and
proffered a coin to P. G. Lynch, the
conductor. He looked at it and re-
marked:
.sI am sorry, Miss, but this is a
penny, not a dime"
The young woman searched her
purse and then, embarrassed said,
Pm afraid 1 must get off, that pen
ny is all I have"
"Remain where you are," replied
the conductor, who was unaware OF
her identity. 81 will be glad to lend
you ten cents"
She accepted his offer and took
his name. A few days later he was
surprised to receive note written
on White House stationery and sign
ed margaret Woodrow Wilson,"
thanking him for his courtesy and en-
closing dime.

Work of Development Board.

Columbia, June 21.-This week
marks the actual effort of the South
Carolina Development Board to
equip itself with the manpower-in-
dividual members-and the resources
necessary to undertake the big pro-
gram which has been mapped out for
it. In every county in the state COM
mittees are seeking enrollments and
pledges. Many reports are already in
but they will be so incomplete until
the end of the week that nothing like
an accurate forecast is possible to-
day. Generally, however, the returns
promise to be satisfactory.
1t has been definitely decided that
markets shall be the first undertak-
ing of the board after the completion
of the expansion campaign. This is
the matter of utmost Importance to
the farmers and other citizens OF
South Carolina. Governor Cooper in
his final appeal to the people to sup
port the development board wrote:
"The plan of the Development
Board proceeds upon the great prin-
ciple that only through self-realiza-
tion can maximum happiness be
achieved eithed by an individual or
by state. Our potentialities are un-
bounded. Why not realize them? The
board will lend to the establishment
of home cash markets, will give i'm
petus to live stock, fruit, truck and
dairy production; will make impor-
tant contributions to general educa-
ton, to public health, to road build
ing and so on, and will be medium
of exchange for ideas and informa-
ton, and in short, lend guiding
hand in every possible way to hasten
full realization of our states posi-
bilities. The underlying principles Oh
the board are broad and the obJec-
tives are specific"

Notice has been sent out by Glenn
son College that the Jersey herd Of
thu. late J. A. Shanklin will be put on
sale July 7th and 9th at the Shank
lin plantation, Camden, S. c. This
herd is as good as we have anywhere
in the nation. 1t has had twenty years
of hard labor behind it to develop it
into it's present standing. The cham
,pion butter cow of the South was
bred by Mr.. shanklin. She produced
1927 pounds of milk, and 1,O2S
poundsof butter in one year. This
cow will be sold at this sale, along
with rs other good record cows and
quite number of heifer calves and
bulls. This offers a chance for some
mighty good material to come to
Edgefeld county. 1t would be fine to
locate three good bulls Of this breed
ing in cooperative association OF
this county. Now is the opportune
time for three of our progressive
sections to get together and send a
representative to buy these bulls and
some nice heifers. What about it,
you progressive farmers of Antioch,
Golfers and Red Hill? If you are
interested see your County Agent or

This is particularly true of headache.
