III the tobacco planters of South
Carolina are to realize finally the
benefits from their cutting of acreage
this year, they must now exert every
effort on good curing and careful
culling of their crop." says Mr.. T.
Benton Young, secretary of the South
Carolina Tobacco Association. sneak
ing for the growers, for the South
Carolina Warehousemen's Associa-
ton, and for the buyers association.
we are dependent this year. abso-
lutely, on the old line buyers. be-
cause the independent buyers are not
able to make the financial arrange

dlcated that they will do their best

money for good tobacco as they can
possibly pay. But they are demand
ing of the growers that the growers
shall offer only good stuff
Through the various associations
OF the different interests of the in
dustry, the extension service of the
state has been interested in the situa-
tion, and is aiding in spreading infor-
nation regarding it. Over the sigma
ture OF DR.. w. w. Long, director, 15,-
600 letters are being mailed to indi-
vidual growers in every section of the
tobacco belt.
Important points stressed in this
letter are as follows:
First: 1t Will be useless waste of
time and money TO harvest the lower
plant bed" leaves or inferior
lugs." OF course this does not mean
that none of the lower leaves are de
sirable, but the cheap trashy leaves
and such leaves as become burnt
would best be left in the field for ma
nure. as we can not hope for them
to bring cost of curing and handling.
Sume think that such grades will not
even get bid" on the warehouse
floor. About tins we do not know, but
we do know that such goods. if sold
will only stand out statistically
against the farmer and make prices
lower next season.
Second. We get from good sources
that this year it will be absolutely
necessary for the farmer to let his to-
bacco get ripe before gathering. The
green grades which have been selling
well In the past are apt to be drag
oil the market. These grades have
/ been exported in the past, but the
| foreign market is in such shape thai
! you cannot depend on it. If the hand:
or choppers" pull some green leaves
Gull them out from the curiG be
! fore marketing. At the end of tn,
season, after having had them bulk
. ed down, market these green leave:
from all your curings.
! Mr.. Bright Williamson of Oar
I lington, president of the South Caro-
lima Tobacco Association, is making
every possible effort to induce the
companies to come into the mark et
. July 10. when it opens, with all buy
ers in all markets and taking al
grades. He is handling this matter
through T. H, Darlington, of Wash
ington, d. c., president of the United
States Tobacco Association. Such al
Opening would tend to establish prop
er prices, Mr.. Williamson believes.

officials claim that they are losing
money on this joint of the road and
that the amount of freight beng
shipped in and shipped out does not
justify them in operating the

intimated that an extension would
be granted till the first of January
next during which time the people
living along the route are expected to
cooperate with the railroad people by

thusiasm that speak well for the
enthusiasm that speak we'll for the
roads prospects. 1t Is a fine thing
to get local pride aroused over q
through highway. Then every dis
trict will take pains to see that the
road Is kept I'm good shape; that 1t Ia
graded, systematically dragged, and
the possible mud holes filed. There
will be additional incentive also for
local hard surfacing.
All these improvements are begin
ming to show on the U. p. trail. The
splendid concrete stretches out of
Topeka, Junction City and Abilene,
the gravel road between Topeka and
st. Marys, and the macadam through
the Fort Riley reservation are CRATE

While the hard surfacing has not

New York, Oct. 24.--The nickel
fare appears to be a very real isuse
In New York's stirring mayoralty
campaign, now drawing to close.
There are many other weighty
issues and all the candidates may not
admit that the fair problem Is upper
most, but 1t is the subject most talked
about just now.
As several millions Of persons have
to travel to and from work each day
on the subway, elevated or surface
lines, the fare question hits the pock-
etbook and accounts for the general
interest.
Mayor John F. Hylan, who is seek
ing re-election on the Tammany
ticket, long ago proclaimed himself
the original champion Of the hve-cent
fare. He fought attempts Of the var,
ious companies to raise the fare 10
war days and carried hts Eight TO

KANSAS VOTED WRONG

The lower house of congress by a
narrow majority last week turned
down the plan to increase its member
ship from 435 to 400 and all the Kan
sas congressman voted for the In
crease. They did not represent their
constituents. There Ii about as much
sense in increasing the membership
Of the house by 25-at cost per
member Of something like $4,000 a
year or $375,O00-as there would be
in electing two presidents. The house
Is too large now; Its time IL wasted
In the wrangiing Of numbers rather
than In business. A house Of 200
members would be better than 435.
OF course the Kansas idea was to
save members for this state but Kan.

votes to add to the nations expense
and taxes and decrease its congress
