The Zone Postal Law.

A proposal is now pending in Con-
gress to repeal the postal zone law as
applied to second class mail. This
movement is backed by magazines
and big national weeklies. If it pass
es, law will be substituted placing
a fiat rate on all newspapers and
magazines. The news papers are op-
posing this proposition, on the ground
that the cost of delivering their pub
locations is not nearly so much as that
of delivering big magazines and week
lies.
The latter publications have to a
large extent national circulation.
They often send as many to distant
state as to their own nearby terri
tory. Newspaper circulation, however,
is mostly local. 1t goes into the coun-
try Immediately around the place of
publication.
1t costs more to transport maga-
zine from New York to Texas OF Cal
ifornia, than to tr sport newspa-
per from city out into some outly-
ing town ten to twenty miles away.
The cost of carrying magazines is
thus much greater than that of news
papers, since magazines have to be
carried so much farther. A fiat rate
for both classes would be just as SEN
sible as charging as much for freight
between Chicago and one of it's SUI
burbs, as between Chicago and New
York.
The magazines claim that they
stimulase postal business in the way
of mail orders, which helps out the
postal revenues. But newspapers pro-
mote all kinds of enterprises which
pay taxes. If you begin to weigh all
these indirect conditions, the news
papers can stand comparisons with
the magazines in the service they rem
der.
The newspaper is one of the princi-
pal forces working for community
progress, and a repeal of the postal
zone law would deal a heavy blow to
the communities they represent; and
business mems organizations every
where, which depend so much upon
newspaper cooperation, should pro-
test against a law that will injure the
means by which they obtain pub
licity for their work.-Roseville

Mexican June Corn.

The safest corn at this time of the
year and which can't be planted any
other time than during the next thir-
ty days, is Mexican June corn. 1t is
the tallest type of all corns, running
twelve to fifteen feet high and with
immense blades, grains are soft and
it ni..,,.es fine roasting ears until
frost a:.d the whole corn stalks make
fine green cattle food until killed by
frost. It makes from one to two good
ears. The corn can be pulled in De.
cember, not before, and can be used
in the barn like other corns. I shall be
glad to mail you literature about this
corn.
Mexican June corn is a tropical
corn. It comes from near the tropics
in northern Mexico. 1t is midsummer
corn and can grow under conditions
not permissible for other corns. There
is not little corn in the fields today
that are already failures. Even this
space would do better if present corn
were plowed up and Mexican June
were put in. Where you are going
to devote any new space to corn Mex
lean June is the best proposition for
June planting.-N. L. Willet in Au-
gusta Chronicle.

President Urges Camp Atted-
ance.

Washington, June 12.-President
Harding urges every young man who
can possibly arrange to do so to at,
tend one of the citizens military
training camps to be conducted by
the war department this summer. In
a statement made public today, he
expressed the hope that during his
administration arrangements will be
completed for giving military training
to at least 100000 young men each
year.
The teat of the statement said:
"I hope every young man who can
arrange it will attend one of the cit
izen's military training camps, to be
conducted this summer by the war
department in each of the nine army
corps areas.
SIN this way he will increase his
worth to the nation and obtain in
dividual benefits of priceless value to
himself and to the community in
which he lives.
I hope to see established during
my administration comprehensive
system of voluntary military train
ing for at least 100000 men each
year. Every young man who is will
ing to prepare himself for the de-
fense of his country should be given
an opportunity to do so.
"Our present national defense law
established an economical and demo-
cratic military policy thoroughly con-
sistent with our national traditions.
1t provides for small regular army
to be augmented by great citizen
forces in the event of a national
emergency. This is our traditional
military policy. But whereas in the
past three larger war forces have
been extemporized after the occur
renee of an emergency, the new law
wisely provides that the framework
of their organization shall be estab-
lished and developed in time of peace,
in so far as this is practicable through
the voluntary service of our patriotic
young men. The army of the United
States as defined by the new law,
comprises the regular army, the ma
tional guard and the organized re-
serves. Every patriotic citizen should
encourage the development of these
forces each within its proper sphere"

Grow Into the Dairy Business.

"Don't go into the dairy business
grow into it," is the advice given
farmers of several counties around
Moultrie, Georgia, recently by Mr..
Morgan Richards, secretary of the
Selma Chamber of Commerce. "Try
dairying on small scale at first, and
gradually learn the business if you
want to make a success of it. Raise
calves and thus increase your hero" ("
Mr.. Richards has helped to make Dal-
las county, Alabama, the greatest
dairy center in the southeast.
Mr.. Richards briefly referred to
the financial situation at Selma in
1914, when Dallas county produced
$4,000 bale cotton crop and related
how it was decided to try dairying.
"We induced the ice plant at Selma
to put in a small creamery. This in
vestment cost $4,000 and number OF
farmers bought several head of dairy
cows each. From this nucleus the
dairy industry in Dallas county has
grown until the county's dairy prod
ucts in 1920 sold for S2,450,000. And
in the meantime the ice plant that in
vested $4,000 in creamery now has
an investment of 100000 in a
creamery that covers practically an
entire city block" Selma has one 9TH
er creamery almost as large, Mr..
Richards added.
There is no danger of over-devel-
oping the dairy business, he said, but
there is real danger of over-develop-
ing the creamery business. The thing
to do is to ship milk from the dairies
to central creamery. Plants have
been built in some Alabama towns
before the dairying industry got go
ing and they couldn't live. The Selma
section had not entirely escaped the
financial depression, but thanks to
the dairy industry it is much better
off than any other section in the
South.
"We still have farmers that stick
to cotton and plant nothing but cot
ton and the other afternoon when I
picked up a local paper l saw full
page containing tax sales-forced
sales of farms. 1 checked the list and
all of the farms advertised were the
farms of men who had refused to di-
versify.-Augusta Herald.

Who is Sapiro?

"Who is Aaron Sapiro, the Cali
fonia leader of cooperative market
ing who has been campaigning the
South in this cause?"
Aaron Sapiro pronounced Sa-
pee-ro, with accent on the second syl-
lable) is one Of the most powerful,
effective, convincing, resourceful
speakers in America today. He makes
no attempt at eloquence, makes no
appeal to prejudices, and makes little
or no appeal to the emotions. He uses
but few stories and but little humor.
Nevertheless, he talks straight busi-
ness-the actual business of how to
get better prices for farm products
in such way as to hold men practi-
cally spellbound for hours. And I be-
lieve nobody can see and talk with
the man publicly and privately day
after day, as I have done, without be-
lieving absolutely in him and in his
devotion to a great cause.
Said thoughtful friend of mine
recently: 81 imagined at first that
Sapiro was probably capitalizing the
interest in cooperative marketing to
his own advantage. But after coming
to know the man, 1 became fully con-
vinced that cooperative marketing is
a real religion with him and that he
is willing to sacrifice health, strength,
money, time or anything else to fur
ther a cause in which he believes with
his whole heart"
This impression is also my own. l
have seen Sapiro whole heartedly 60
ing ahead with his campaign for CO.
operative marketing practically with
out financial return, when his doctors
told him he was going at the risk of
his own health and when he had not
averaged one day a month in his
home. for several months previously.
The cooperative associations he has
organized pay him a good salary, it is
true. They ought to, for he is one Of
the most able advocates in the United
States. But believe if he had chosen
to serve the great manufacturing and
corporate interests of the country, he
could make SIS for every 81 he makes
now-and with less strain and dis
comfort than he is undergoing in the
cause of cooperation.
Early left an orphan and reared in
an orphan asylum, educating himself
later with the intention of entering
religious work, he knows what power
ty means and yearns to help to bet
ter means of existence those now con-
demned to poverty. He is working in
cause in which he can throw his
whole heart and soul, and when some
great manufacturing interests recent
ly tried to induce him to represent
them in WashingtonS he did not listen
for a minute. Early in life he came
under the influence of David Lubin,
the great old California agricultural
philosopher who founded the Inter
national Institute of Agriculture in
Rome. Ever since that time Sapiro
has been giving himself whole-heart-
edly to the cause of rural betterment.

Melon Acreage Large This
Year,

Saluda, June 13+According to
report of B. B. are, agricultural sta
tistician in charge of the crop report
ing service in South Carolina for the
bureau of crop estimates of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, the following estimates are
noted which show the condition of
the following crops on June 1:
Wheat 80 per cent. of normal; oats,
"a; alfalfa, 81; hay IS; cowpeas, 83;
rye, Sc; cabbages, 90; onions, 81;
peaches, So; pears, 60; apples, 65i
watermelons, rs, annd canteloupes,
70.
The report shows that the COM
mercial acreage planted to water
melons this season will approximate
1000 acres, canteloupes 1000 and
cucumbers 1900. Barnwell county
appears to have the largest acreage
of each of these crops and Blackville
is one of the largest, if not the larg-
est, shipping point. Other shipping
points for melons are as follows
Barnwell, Lena, Furman, Allendale
Cave, Kline, Denmark, Ulmer, Scotia,
Sycamore, Fairfax, Estill, Luray
Barton, Dunbarton, Hattieville, Bal,
dock, Appleton, Hilda, olar and Till.
man.
The indicated production of wheat
in the state is 1,S48,000 bushels
against 1,785,OO0 bushels last year
The acreage of oats is shown to be
455,700 acres, or 5 per cent. more
than last year. The condition of 81
per cent. forecasts a production Of
10,481, 900 bushels or $4,000 bushels
more than in 1920.
Peaches in centnral and western
counties were seriously injured by
froSts IN April, While In the eastern
par tof the state, especially Chester
field county, condition and yields are
more satisfactory. Apples and pears
did not suffer so much from late
frosts as peaches, though consider
able injury is now being reported or
account of blight.
During the early part of May rain
fall was abundant and farm worl
was delayed to considerable extent
During greaterportion of the month
nights were too cool and crop growth
generally was very poor, except The
last week of the crop reporting pc
riod when there was seasonal growth
and development of all crops.
