Edgefeld Grader on the Job.

At this season of the game some
are beginning to wonder how the
Government Cotton Grader at Edge
field is getting along and just what;
good he is doing the farmers County
Agent Carwile has gone to the trou-
BILE Of having a number of farmers
and business men to write letters to
DR.. w. w. Long, Extension Service,
Clemson College, stating their atti-
tude towards the grading work and
giving their opinion of what the grad
er has made the farmers who have
had their cotton graded. Every letter
that has been written frankly stated
that the cotton market at Edgefield
has been much better than ever be-
fore, and that many dollars have been
made for the Edgefeld County cot
ton growers by knowing the grade
and value of their cotton before SELL
ing it. A number of farmers stated
that they have received as high as
$40 per bale after having their cot
ton graded than they. were offered
before the cotton was graded. County
agent SdlWlle says Llio1 HS 90" eiAS
Grader make $40 on one bale for a
negro farmer one day in the early
part of the season and that he again
saw the Grader make $27.50 for a
negro only a few days ago on two
bales of cotton. This is good work for
our people and yet some of the men
who call themselves farmers will not
support this work!
Some of the buyers have remark
ed that the Edgefed Grader has not
been consistent in his work; that he
often graded too high and that they
could not deliver on his grades. Mr..
r. T. Hill ,one of our best farmers,
as we'll as ginners, received a few
days ago letter from Barrett and
Company, Augusta, in which they
said that they could accept the
grades of the Edgefeld Classer, that
they did not find that our Grader had
graded too high, but in a few cases
found that his grades were under
their classification.
Farmers, know the value of your
cotton before selling it. The Edge
field Cotton Grader will put you wise
at a small cost.

The Near East" Relief APP
peals to Americans.

Uneasiness as to the effect which
the disturbed conditions in the Near
East would have on the Near East
Relief work has been entirely set at
rest by the direct news received of
Col. ]. P. Coombs of Appalachicola,
Fla, the Near East Relief commit
tees director in Asia Minor, who was
reported as detained with his party
at Sersoun by Turkish Nationalist.
The dispatches from Col. Coombs
give detailed information as to the
status of affairs in that part of the
world and contain this paragraph:
"Twenty-fve thousand orphans in
our care would have small chance OF
surviving if we left"
And SO of course the Near East Re-
lief men will not leave. So far from
doing so, they will exert even great.
er efforts to meet more critical
situation. ].
Charles v. Vivkery, secretary of
the Near East Relief, has given out a
statement which is in part as fol-
lows:
"Our experience with the Near
East during the past five years has
been that orphanages, hospitals and
other similar institutions under con-
troll of the Near East Relief have
been free from molestation by the
Turks and others when these insti-
tutions have been administered by
American relief workers in whose
unselfshness and altruism the Turks,
Kurds and Tartars, as we'll as the Ar
menians, have complete confidence.
"There are 5000 orphans in the
Near East Relief orphanage at Har-
poot alone who have been kept there
safely during the entire war, and
smaller numbers at other centers in
Anatolia-a total of 10000 in the
Near East"
A party of six new relief workers
sailed from New York for Constan-
tinople last week. Among them was
DIR. Russell T. Uhls of Kansas, an
eye specialist, who goes to help stamp
out the trachoma epidemic now rag
ing among the children of the Near
East. His wife, who is graduate
trained nurse, will assist him in his
work.

Wages Going Down.

Abbeville Press and Banner.
The low price of things generally
is being felt these days by laboring.
people. The city council has reduced
the daily wages of the street force
from $500 per day to $3.50, and a
further cut, is scheduled for January
1st. A. carpenter who has been re-
ceiving $3.50 by the day has reduced
his price to $500 per day. He may
still reduce.
The fact is jobs are going to be
hard to find unless there is an i'm
provement in the general outlook;
which will mean not only lower
wages for the people who work, but.
unemployment for those who have
been accustomed to collect wages
and do little work. The day of the
loafer is about gone, that is the man
who loafs on his job is going to be
without a job. There will be plenty
of people who will thus be forced to-
loaf.

In Garden and Orchard.

Clemson College, Nov. 22.-Plan
an all-the-year garden for 1921.
Write for seed catalogues and order
a supply of seed now and start right
with the new year.
The crops that are now in the
garden should be given some pro-
lection before the advent of severe
weather. Mulch the strawberry
patch with hay or straw; apply sta
ble manure literally to spinach, kale
and other salad crops; and mulch
such root crops as beets, CARROTS,
satisfy and parsnips to prevent the
ground from freezing.
Thoroughly clean the garden of
all rubbish, weeds, and decaying veg
etables, instead of turning them un-
der. Apply stable manure to that
part Of. the. garden not in vegetables
and plow up the soil before winter.
Except in isolated localities, the
fig can be grown successfully in this
state. Now is an excellent time to
fruit, which will thrive best
in a sheltered place about the house
OF. garden. The Celeste and Brown
Turkey are two excellent varieties.
Orchard trees badly infested with
San Jose scale should be sprayed
with commercial lime-sulphur as
soon as the leaves fall, and again just
before growth commences in spring.

and branches for only in this way is

Negro Shot Deputy Sheriff
Saturday Night.

Sa.uda, Nov. 21.-Webber Ed
wards, deputy sheriff, was shot and
instantly killed last night about ten
o'clock in the northwestern section
of Saluda county by Elliott Cnls
breath, negro whom the officer had
gone to arrest. Culbreath escaped,'
but search was kept up throughout
the night and today. The Saluda
county authorities have offered a;
reward of $500 for the apprehension
of the negro and it is understood
here that Governor Cooper will be:
asked to supplement this.
From what can be learned here it.
seems that a Mr.. QUITS of Green.
wood county had warrant issued
for the arrest of Culbreath, who lived
on Mr.. QUITS land in Saluda county,.
the charge being the disposition Of
property under lien. Mr.. Edwards
and two or three other officers SUR
rounded the negro's home to make
the arrest. Mr.. Edwards was in an
alley between the house and the
kitchen when the negro opened the.
door slightly and fired on Mr.. Ed
wards, one shot taking effect in the.
chest and causing instant death.
From the mark of a glancing bullet
on the door it is believed that Mr..
Edwards returned the fire as he fell
Mr.. Edwards had served as deputy
sheriff ten or twelve years and was
a fearless and efficient officer. He was
SO years old and leaves, widow and
six children.
Culbreath is about five feet eight
inches tall and weighs nearly 200
pounds. He has scar on one side of
the face. He is said to bear a bad
reputation.
Ell Culbreath, as the negro is
know, is we'll known in Edgefeld,
having practiced some high financing
here. 1t is probable that some of his
Edgefeld creditors will lose consid-
erably by him. We heard an attor-
ney who it appears had looked up
the record, say Ell owes about $9,-
900. Credit will not be so cheap next
year.

Miss Florence Minis Writes of
Sousa and His Band.
Dear Advertiser:

bGdT AQVGrLlSGF.
We have had, all of US, long dis.
tance introductions to Sousa and his
band through the pages of maga.
zines and the victrola record. Like
any other long distance communica-
tion, however, this is too short and
unreal. had the privilege of seeing
this celebrity and the lesser celebri-
ties that constitute this company in
st. Paul some time ago.
A great man does not have to wor-
ry about either first or second i'm
pressions, for they have already been
made before he is seen in person,
and usually are in his favor. That
does not mean, however, that he one
day, was not as obscure as the rest
of US. He became a musician of note,
/ suppose by paying attention to de-
tails and perfecting them.
An orchestra or band seems to me
like one great music club, with a
competent president and a uniformly
musical membership.
/ have gradually come to under
stand why it is that the General in
an army, the producer of a play, or
the director of an orchestra receives
more credit than the Individuals who
compose these organizations. 1t is
because / have been teaching, and I
find that the teacher not only has to
train the student, but produce the
ideas and assume the responsibility
for the students Interpretation of
them. 1t is the same way with
any leader of any company of peo-
pie whether he be directing them to
fight or to play.
One can get no clue from the
sound of it as to what the nationality
of John Philip Sousa may be. The
first part is good plain American.
The second might be French or Span
ish or Italian, and the latter part be-
long to almost any one of number
of European nationalities.
However, ISousa is a well-built,
kindly-looking. gentleman with gray
hair. He wears glasses which give
him somewhat intellectual appear
ance. He does not look like the typi-
cal musician. One of my friends has
suggested that he is good musician
minus the freak characteristic which
even some modern celebrities are
blessed or cursed with today.
As luck would have it, the band
played Dixie as a part of medley.

We South Carolinians seem to be
unable to get away from the old an
te-bellum love of State and especial
ly love of our own section of country.
/ hear Dixie every now and then.
Even this morning at the high school
heard the student body down stairs
singing a medley, in which Dixie had
a part. No one ever rushed more rap
idly down to the lower floor than I,
and fairly falling into the auditori-
um, secured a copy of the song and
began to take part, as several under
standing smiles came to me from the
students.
Another part of the medley they
sang was Marching Through Geor-

I could-until they had finished prais
ing Sherman, and then took up the
rest of the song which did not Of

U, S, POSITION ON
ANTI-ALIEN LAND
LAW IS STATED

washington. Nov. 1.-(By Tho Asso-
clated Press)-The American govern
nent made public today it's first state
mont regarding the discussions with
tho Japanese ambassador concerning
the proposed anti-alien land law, to be
voted on tomorrow in California. 1t
said that It was believed the japanese
ambassador realized that no outcome OF
the California movement would be nc,
ceptablo to the country at largo that d;d
not accord with existing and applicable
provisions of law" and with the ma
tional instinct Of justice.
The statement was prepared by Act
ing Secretary Davis OF the state depart
ment. who declared that it was lin re-
PLY 10 inquiries" and that the fact that
IL was issued on the eve of the Califor-
MIA elections was without political sig
niflcancc 1t was understood that the
principal object was TO assure the Jap
anese people that their legitimate In
tcrcsts would be sateguarded.
Mr.. Davis described the discussions
with the Japanese anlha SSador as being
of the most friendly and candid ma
,ure" and also said that tho relation or
certain treaty provisions to the 7ropos.
cd California measure would doubtless
prove an element in the states de-
ciSiOn."
