SWEET POTATO CROP.

Laurel. Oct. 2f-Most of the sweet
potato growers have about completed
digging their crop, which has turned out
a better weld than many had been pre-
dieting. The farmers broke a determined
effort of some of the brokers here to
obtain large part of the crop for 35
cents per5s basket by refusing to sell, and
after a short time the brokers began bid
ding up the price until now sweets are
selling at 65 cents per basket with some
sales at 20 cents per basket
The farmers replied to the brokers pool
bv telling them they had lost on their,
tomato, watermelon, cantaioupe and Gu
oumber crops and that they had to make a
reasonable profit on their sweets to make
up q part of their large losses on the others.

DEMOCRATIC TICKET
A Dirt Farmer-Seoretary.

Governor Cox has made his first cam
paign pledge. II is that If elected Presi-
dent he will appoint as aSecretaryo of Agri-
culture. "a dirt farmer man who has
followed the pillow. worked in the dirt. knows
the soil and has turned 1t into gold"
The promise Of the Governor to appoint
a genuine farmer as Secretary of Agricul-
ture was made to group of farmers who
called at the Trails End to congratulate
him on Saturday night last. The Govern
or's own experience as farmer and his
intimate knowledge Of farm problems de-
rived from study Of conditions on his
own 400-acre farm. have led him to re-
gard the Department Of Agriculture as one
OF the most important positions in the
Cabipet. He regards as its three most
important functions the increasing Of the
! pfoductivity Of the soil. the fight against
Fhoe cholera, and the fight in the cotton
States against boil weevil.

Gov. Cox Talks On The Issues OF
The Campaign.

stall correspondent OF the Baltimore
Recently called upon Governor Cox anc
N the ensuing conversation the Demo
cratic candidate reiterated that he could
not be directly quoted in discussion Of
any national issue until his formal speech
OF acceptance. What follows. therefore
represents Governor Coxs exact views on
the great questions that the American
people want answered by the Presidential
candidates, though ii does not represent
his own language.
In the first place, Governor Cox cannot
be classed as a wet candidate. He under
stands that the popular complaint about
the Volstead act is that It goes to extremes
and that the public attitude 10 the same
toward the Eighteenth Amendment. But
his position is that. II the people want 1t
changed, they will have to change 1t them
selves.
He maintains that a majority Of the
people have the same right now to change
the prohibition laws that they had when
the laws were passed. and that the process
whereby such changes can be brought
about are provided by the Constitution.
He is for the rule Of the majority in any
and every case. and when the majority
have settled upon law he has worse
opinion Of the man who fails to enforce that
law than of the man who breaks it.
1t might be concluded from all this that
Gov. Cox Is more Of dry than wet, but
1t Is incorrect to say that he is either.
What he wants. more than anything else,
Is a definite expression from the people
regarding their wishes.
Regarding the League of Nations, the
greatest issue of the campaign. the out
standing fact in Gov. Cox's attitude upon
this subject is that he has two reserva-
tons Of his own. He believes. moreover,
that they are reservations President viii
son himself desires and always has de-
sired that they are, in fact. a part Of the
present League, but are not definitely un-
derstood by the American people, and per-
haps not by other parties TO the League.
The reservations are
First-That the United States enter into
the League OF Nations with the definite
understanding that its purpose is world
wide peace, and not in any sense an al
lance with foreign powers, and that this
understanding be expressed in such way
that the United States will be In position
to withdraw at the first evidence Of bad
faith on the part Of any member nation.
Second-That Article 10 be accepted
with the distinct understanding. when the
pact is entered into. that the limits Of the
Constitution and the powers it confers
upon Congress to declare war always to
be considered part Of the agreement.
Gov. Cox believes this treasures clearly
and completely Senator Reed, who tele-
eraphed his congratulations and expressed
the conviction that Gov. Cox Twill always
maintain and defend our nation and will
never consent to the surrender Of any part
Of its sovereignty"

The news from the corn and wheat belt,
that an unexpectedly large crop Of both
cereals win be harvested and that the

a month ago were inclined to forecast re-
suits which aroused fears concerning the
sufficiency Of the country's food supply
Those fears now, however, are happily dis
PEELED. and there is no cause for Gloom
The harvest will not be the bumper crop
Of some years, but II will excel the aver.
age yield. The erainaries Of the nation
will be well filed and the agriculturIst will
continue to receive good pay for his hard
and long-sustained efforts in the face Of
conditions that some weeks ago proved
most discouraeine
The government report issued last week
shows an improvement In conditions tina,
should produce 2S.000.000 more bushels
of wheat. 100000 more bushels Of oats,
100000 more bushels Of barley and
z,OOO.OOO more bushels OF rye, than was
predicted month ago Counting the hold
over from last year the country is promised
a total Of 856.00O.000 bushels Of wheat
which would be ample for domestic con-
sumption and leave a surplus for export.
The corn crop is reported to be not so good
as year ago. but there has been an in.
crease Of 07i.000 acres planted. In to-
bacco and rice the years yield will exceed
all past records. In all Of the cereals the
prospective crop Is estimated to be larger
than the average production for the five
years from 1914 to 1918. inclusive.
So. after all. there is reason to be OF
sood cheer. The farmer will make good.

fOnted him earlier in the season. Itl
