BANKERS ENDORSE COOPERATIVE
MARKETING

Columbia, Dec. 5.-Cooperahve mar
keting of cotton was endorsed by the
executive council of the South Caro-
lima Bankers Association and by the
agricultural committee of the same
organization this week.
A special meeting of the executive
council was held In Columbia Tues
day and in addition to the ten MEM
bers of the council there were twenty
FIVE or thirty others representative
bankers from over. the state present.
The following resolution was un-
apimously adopted by the council:
Realizing that the formation Of a
statewide cotton cooperative market
ing association will tend to eliminate
many Of the evils which now surround
the marketing of our principal crop
such as country damage undergrading
and the dumping Of a great portion
of the crop on the market in the
fall months and will result in a stabi-
lization of the market and insure the
farmer of the fact that his cotton will
be warehoused, graded, stapled and
sold at the best possible figure:
Therefore, be 1t resolved: That,
we, the members of the executive COM
mittee of the South Carolina Bankers
association do hereby endorse the
movement for the formation of the
South Carolina Cotton Growrs' Co.
operative, association; That we urge
every farmer to sign the contract and
that We urge the bankers, merchants
and business men Of the state to as
sist in the campaign for the neces-
sary number of signatures to ma
the contract operative"
This afternoon, A. w. Mclean, Of
the War Finance corporation In ad-
dressing the bankers strongly COM
mended the formation Of a cotton Co
operative marketing association. He
told tham that the corporation
made loans to the Texas association
approxtmating s15,OOO.Ooo and wanted
to lend more but that the big, banks
had gone after the business. Z
The council decided to hold, group
meetings over the State to present
the Importance Of the banks securing
money from the War Finance corpor-
alton and at each of these meetings
a representative Of the South Carolina
Cotton Growers Cooperative associa-
tion will present the importance Of
that movement.

HOME DEMONSTRATION DEPT.
The County Home Demonstration
Agent Says;


The Importance of the midday meal
for the growing child is often neglect
cd. particularly during school time
II should not be forgotten that. as a
rule, the lunch which the child takes
at school ID the big meal OF the day
therefore, should be sufficient In
quantity, wholesome and made up OF
the foods required by the growing
body.
Growing children need good whole
scms foods because new tissue Is be-
ing made. they take a great deal Of
exercise, and the tax Of study incrsas-
es their food requirement. They need
simple foods easily digested; such as
milk and milk products, meats as
beef, fsh and chicken, vegetables
fruits and cereals.
To summarize tho planning and
preparation of the school lunch:
It should be planned 50 as to be
satisfying and nutritious, but not
heavy. (Heavy lunches cause slug
gishness.)
In packing the lunch the container
is most important It should be one
that is easily cleaned and properly
ventilated. Paper napkins should.
when possible, be provided. Each
sandwich should be wrapped in oiled
or parafin paper. For the carrying
Of such foods as salads. ETC., small
Jelly glasses or custArd cups are very
nice. The attractivenesss OF the lunch
has much to do, with the taste Of the
food which 1t contains. When possi-
BILE. the ideal way is to have one hot
dish or drink to accompany the home
packed lunch. This OF course is pre-
pared ct school.
The following are . few examples
Of properly planned lunches:
/. Two chicken sandwiches.
Small container potato salad.
applet -
u pt. sweet milk.
small pieces peanut brittle.
Q. I or 3 cheese and pimento sand
wickas.
Small container baked beams.
u pt. sweet milk.
piece sponge cake,

Potato or mixed vegetable salad.
" pt. sweet milk.
I cup cake.
/ orange.
4. Two cottage cheese and nut
sandwiches.
Celery or :Cold-slaw.
Baked sup custard.
Two sugar cookies.
Step Savers.
While many devices In other groups
also save steps there are 4 few pieces
of equipment which may be called
distinctly step savers. Chief among
these Is the kitchen cabinet which
combines Q pan ry table and, shelf
space into one y, dele of furniture.
No one piece Of Kitchen equipment
does moro to coordinate utensils and
working processes than the manufac-
tured kitchen cabinet. The newest
models have -four and sugar bins,
cereal and spice containers, rack shelf
space and adjustable moulding boards
When used with q stool, such a cabi-
net saves endless steps by grouping
within arms length Of the worker
both supplies, utensils and tools
needed IN many kitchen processes.
The serving tray on wheels Is
another distinctive step saver. Sew
eral models are on the market, some
with single, others with double tray.

THIRD PLAN SPRUNG
AT READING HEARING
Would Trustee and Sell Coal
Stock for Holders.

PHu.ApELPHIA, May 2.--The manner
in which the Reading Company proper

States Supreme Court, shall be segre-
gated was held under advisement by
the Federal District Court after a hear
ing here to-day. The court asked the
Reading Company and the Government

as agreed to by them. within ten days.

stockholders that they should share with
the common stockholders in the division
of the ss3.000.0o0 Of book surplus In
the Reading Company. a holding COM
pany for the coal and other interests OF
the Philadelphia and Reading Railway
Company. were heard.
Since the last hearing in the case con-
ferences between the Government and
counsel for the Reading Company re-
suited in the elimination Of two points
which were to have been discussed to-
day, said William Clark Mason, OF coun-
sci for the Reading. in opening the dis
cussion. One. he said. was an agree
ment that the stockholders should not
be required to pay 10 per cent to the
bondholders for the release OF the coal
property from tho lien OF the general
mortgage. ana tnc Otnef was IOT Keep
ing the stock intact and the Reading
Company assigning its equity in the
stock to a new corporation and issuing
certificates OF interest to the stockhold-
ers benefiting under the dissolution plan.
Allan McCarty, counsel for the Pros
sen committee of common stockholders
offered an alternative plan. which he
said would make It unnecessary for the
courts to pass upon the respective legal
rights of common and preferred stock
holders. His plan suggested tho coal
company's stock and property be placed
in the hands OF a trustee until II could
be sold on the market at figure near
its real value; that the proceeds be
placed IN the treasury Of tho Reading
Company and distributed according 70
the terms of the stock certificates Of
the common and preferred classes, and
IL the distribution were not satisfactory

Next Federal Financing Ex
pected to Be Certificates or
Short Term Notes.

Wall Street expects that the next short
term financing by the United States
Government will take the form OF $780,

$4,000 win be required to liquidate the
certificates which mature on May 16.
Those certificates are redeemable In
cash and can be redeemed at any time
prior to May is, at the option OF their
holders, according to announcement
made yesterday by the Federal Reserve

into an annual maturity of about
81, 200, ,000, 900 a year from 1922 to 1928.
met yesterday with unqualified approval
in Wall Street banking circles. 1t was
pointed out that the plan, when carried
through, would not shut the door to a
long term funding operation for the
entire amount In case that money rates
went to per cent. or lower. and that
the head OF the Treasury Department
merely was exercising foresight to pave
the way to make the financing OF the
Victory loan maturity, optionally re-
deemable on June Is or December is,
1922, and finally payable on May TO-
1923.
As bankers read the plan, after an
initial issue OF certificates and possibly
of short term notes as well, to be paid
for on May is. the offerings will be
sandwiched, first a certificate of in
debtedness and subsequently short
term note, &c. The original issue OF
victorys was approximately s4.500,000.-
900 and through the operation OF the
sinking fund and purchases in the open
market the amount outstanding is less
tn an S4,100, 900. 900. With the proceeds
of short term note issues. the balance
outstanding may be reduced still further.
Bankers said yesterday that the ex-
listing machinery for marketing certifi-

place $500, 100000 new certificates or
