COURTESY

One Of the greatest factors that
leads to success is courtesy. If we
would win the good will of our
customers we must learn how to be
courteous and considerate to them in
our dealings. Courtesy is very cheap,
in face, it cost only ittleself-control,
but it pays large dividends. Right
often we come in contact with people
who are irritable in their business
associations and we don't go back
to deal with him again. Its sign
of bigness of mind and of character to
be patient and courteous at all times
with every customer. And it is the
man with big mind and big
character that always carries his
point in every business deal. Irritation
is sign of littleness of character and
mind. The irritable are weak, and the
weak always lose out in the race Of
life. It's the strong and big that win
the victories in the battles of life.
Take hold of yourself with firmness
and force your weak attributes to take
backseat.- Winder News.

Poilu's Widow Gets Indemnity

Paris, Saturday.-An indemnity Of
10000 francs was accorded by a
French court-martial this week to the
widow and the daughter of the soldier
Lucien Bersot of the Sixtieth Infan-
try, who was unjustly condemned to
death by an irate colonel.
Bersot received an issue of filthy
clothing, which he refused to wear,
and Immediately was sentenced to
lightly days in prison by lieutenant.
fhe next day, however, the regiments
colonel, AurouX, decided to revise
the sentence, and ordered Bersot shot
or disobedience in the face, of the enc
my. A non-commissioned officer, who
offered to plead for Bersot was con-
demned to two years at hard labor.
Bersot was executed, but his comrades
took up the fight after the war to have
his name cleared.

PREPARE FOR FALL FAIRS NOW

Now is the time to prepare some
thing for fall fairs. 1t is rather diff
ficult thing to go into the fields in the
fall and find something that is worthy
of being exhibited in the fair. But
if attention is directed towards the
crops and stock now, with that
thought in mind, more worthy show
ing can be made.
1t will have a favorable effect upon
your crops if you will begin now to
care for them; as if they were already
entered in for competition at the fair.
And if fair is worth having at all,
it is justified only as it is an induce
ment to improve agricultural prac-
tees. If you did not learn anything
from the fair last fall, even though
you took first prize, the fair has not
justified itself.
The necessity of giving attention
now to the fair, however, is especially
important for the live stock exhibits.
The herds and especially the calves,
should be chosen now as far as pos
sible and given attention with the ex-
hibit idea in mind. You can not fit an
animal for a fair in two or three
weeks time. 1t is long process and
you should begin early.

GROWERS GAIN $3.50 A BALE

Clemson College, July 31.-South
Carolina cotton growers will read
with interest the story below of the
outcome of the cooperative market
ing sale of Oklahoma cotton for the
1921 crop.
"Oklahoma 'City-With the distri-
button last week of checks totalling
more than / Ia million dollars in
final settlement with its members by
the Oklahoma Cotton Growers Asso-
citation, there was brought to sue
cessful close the first session of op-
Grafton of the first statewide coopera-
tive organization ever formed by
growers for the orderly marketing of
cotton. The final payment brings the
total turned over to members to 8
1-S million dollars. That amount rep
resents the proceeds from the sale of
81 300 bales of cotton of the 1921
crop handled by the organization.
"The average basis middling' price
received is 18 cents pound. That av-
erage is said to be remarkable. 1t was
f. o. b. Oklahoma points and was OBJ
tanned where cotton was selling al
Iports at prices ranging from 12 tc
20 cents pound. Reports on associa-
tion sales in comparison with sale.
made on the street by nonmember.
have shown gain for the association
members of approximately $3.50 {
bale. That also is remarkable, it il
stated, because of the determined
fight by street buyers early in the sea
son on the rising market. In that pc
riod buyers paid as much as 500,
and $500 bale more than the cot
ton price. That resulted in a mar
rover margin between the associa
tion's average price and the pric
paid on the street.
Expense Well Below Limit
"The sales and general operating
expense has been but 2 1-2 per cen
of the gross proceeds from the sal
of cotton handled, this covering
fourteen months. That also include
the purchase of much equipmen
which will not have to be duplicate,
another year, and heavy expense in
cident to building from the ground VI
machinery to transact an S-million
dollar business. The amount allowe,
under the contract with the member
for such expense is per cent"

RAILWAY EXECUTIVES
REJECT PEACE PLAN

New York, Aug. Railway exe-
cutives of the nation today firmly but
courteously rejected the program ad-
vanced by the Harding administration
for the settlement Of the rail strike.
Willing to accept conditonally two
suggestions put forward by the White
House--that both sides abide by wage
decisions of the railroad labor board
and that law suits springing out of the
strike be withdrawn-the heads of
14S roads declared emphatically that
it was impossible to reinstate strikers
with unimpaired seniority rights, the
third provision in the presidents plan.
After beng told by Robert s. Lovett
of the Union Pacific that there was no
moral or practical reason for budging
from their position, the executives
disbanded, caught the first trains for
their respective headquarters and in
dicated that they were going ahead
and would operate their roads with
forces they had assembled since the
shopmen walked out on July 1.
The decision not to yield on the
question of seniority was made known
to the White House by telegraph afte,
, the rail heads had listened to a &c
minute address by Secretary of Com
merce Hoover.

WEEVIL INFESTATION
is IRREGULAR
Weather Conditions Favorable to
Weevil Development. Continuation
of Control Measures Advised

Clemson College, July 31.--"The
most striking feature in the boil wce
vii situation is the irregularity OF the
amount of infestation, not only in the
various counties but on individual
farms and even in single fields" said
frof. Il. F. Conradi, Entomoiocist, ct
the weekly boil weevil conference
here today, after hearing reports from
the field specialists who were present
for the conference and from the coun
ty agents over the state.
At the close of the conference the
following statement was given out:
The weather during the past week,
was moist and generally favorable to
weevil development. 1t should be ex-
planned that hot and dry weather is
the weevips worst enemy, but with the
exception of a few calties we have
had no such weather during the past
week. Showers have been frequent
and the atmosphere moist, which off
set the benefits that would have been
derived otherwise from hot weather.
The percentage of squares infes-
ed varies, as shown by reports, from
small per cent. to 60 or 70 per cent
This condition frequently is very mis-
leading to farmers who are giving the
credit of low infestation to one or
other of the control measures they are
attempting, when as a matter of fact
the infestation was not there to begin
with. We know this to be the case. be-
cause there have been accumulated
over period of years a series of most
elaborate data in experimental work
showing what results may be expected
IRON one or the other of these various
control measures under the best con-
ditions.
Keep Up Control Measures
Square collecting when done thor
oughiy on the plant and on the ground
IS still advised throughout the Pied
mont section, and in other sections
and areas where light square infes-
tation occurs.
frequent shallow cultivation should
be continued so long as cotton does
not sufilciently overlap for this to be
injurious.
1t is very necessary that the labor
situation be controlled during August
Tor the purpose of square COLLECTING
and cultivation. Failure to have labor
available may mean much loss.
Fruiting over the state generally is
very good. But it frequently happens
Ihat individual farmers have a small
crop of fruit set at this time, a con-
aition which would hardly be due to
natural conditions but probably to
poor soil and seed. 1t must be kent
m mind that good soil and oood seec
IL must be kept in mind that good seed
are two things most necessary be-
tore one may expect profit from any
operation for boil weevil control
frequently We are asked to advise
"hether busting should be undertake
IN "here square infestation has
cached upwards of 60 per cent. This
depends on:
l. whether the farmer is prepared

'dVise him to dust, but there is no
