Tobacco PackhOuse.

Just at this time it is very neces-
sary that all tobacco growers should
begin to arrange for a place to store
their tobacco for short time after
it is cured. The recent grading act
passed by the legislature makes this
necessary. All South Carolina tobac-
co this coming season will have to
be graded and tied, whether sold over
the open floor or comparatively, there
fore, it becomes necessary that we
begin now to prepare some place to
store and grade our tobacco. This is
a rather simple matter to arrange
a temporary place. Any out build
ing such as a seed cotton house can
be easily converted into a suitable
place. You simply have to remember
that you want a reasonably tight
room which does not have leak and
which is not easily affected by out
side atmospheric conditions and chang
es. You want a tight floor and high
enough from the ground so that the
moisture from the earth will not ef-
feet the tobacco through the floor.
Any pole house daubed makes splen-
did place. If a weather boarded house
is used which is not ceiled, the cracks
should be stopped by using building
paper, or old newspapers tackled on
will answer the purpose.
All new inexperienced tobacco grow
ers should have talk with some old
er grower, or his county agent, or
some tobacco man and begin now to
make his preparations. BY starting
in time, he can do this work on rainy
days with but little cost. A great
many use spare room in the dwell
ing for few weeks, but in order
to stay on good terms with your
wife, the writer advises that you
make some other arrangements.

Who Is He Serving?

In the issue of November 20, 1921,
the editor of the Southern Tobacco
Journal made this statement In re-
gard to the Tobacco Growers Co
operative Marketing Association:
at matters not what our own pri-
vate opinion may be in this matter,
we are not going to place any obstacle
IN the way of any possible success OF
the cooperative marketing plan. In
fact, we could not do so if We so de-
sired"
About Christmas and since that
time he has teen making strong ap-
peals to the farmers to stay out OF
!. the association, saying he was taking
this action for the farmers interest.
By his own admission, as you will
read below, his Journal is the only
paper in the entire south taking that
stand.
The following appeal was sent out
to the pin-hookers, spectators and
warehousemen in Two circular letters.
Mr. Farmer, read this carefully and
see if your interest or your name
appears anywhere in it. Has ne kept
his November promise? Is it not
significant that this Journal is the
cnly paper in the south against the
association? When you receive a
flee copy of this Journal, you may
know who is sending it and who is
raying for it. The Journal did not
intend for the association to get hold

Washlngton.--The Washington con.

although President Harding dismissed
1t Monday, the formal phase OF the
first international conference held In
the United States ended several days

OF what was done here much must
await the test Of time and experience,

abolished competition and limited
naval strength as between these three
nations for n period Of fifteen years.
The fact that France signed the Pa.
clfie treaty and France and Italy the
naval agreement does not have equal
Significance, although both circuin.
stances are OF certain value. What
IS most important Is that the three
great naval powers have arranged
their political interests and regulated
their naval programs in such fash.

Successful in dealing with Anglo

Washington conference has only par

the mainland OF Asia and has frankly
and undenlaby failed wherever issues
raised here were related to present
European problems as yet unsettled
and differences between European
countries which remain acute.

conference as against the old dlpio-
macy Is not particularly interesting
since 1t concerns only the former.
But the controversy foreshadows dis.

When Premier Polncaire asked me

purposes, did not think he could

to the fact that he constantly approx

also to his personal situation relative
