one Democratic State has made such
provision.
And so it is on down the line.
Riddles. Those men at Washington,
in the Senate and the House, who
are always talking the loudest
about the love of their party for the
eX-service man come from Demo-
cratic States where very little has
been done to give him relief. In
other words. the story Freddie's
mother read Is just another part of
the loud talking being INDUCED in
by the Democrats to try to direct
the attention of the citizens of the
country away from the splendid
work being done by Republican
States for the ex-Soldier. 1t is the
old case of loud talking and little
doing. The Republicans are plug
ging along both at Washington and
in every State controlled by them
to do everything possible for the
eX-service man and at the same
time leave the Federal and State
in a sound condition. The
party is too busy work

Last year this State produced
55, 600 600 bushels of wheat, and an
endless variety of pretty much
everything folks like to eat, her
agricultural values for the year
totaling s227OOO,OOOl There are
many nations of this world that pro-
duced far less last year than the
State OF Washington alone!
You don't think Of the Pacific
Coast as a coal mining region as n
rule, yet Washington last year
mined 10000, 900 tons of very high
quality coal.
1t seems scarcely fair that a State
producing this much coal should
also have within her borders unlim-
tied supplies of firewood, and one
eighth of all the hydro-electric en-
ergy in the country. yet such is the
bouDtiful way in which Dame Ma
ture has treated Mr.. Washington's
name State.
Occasionally they have crop
failure in some part OF the State.
But then, il crops never failed here,
Washingtonians would be too cocky
to stay in the Union at all.

Baptist Advance
In Sunday School

Southern Baptist Sunday schools
have increased in numbers 346 per
cent in the last 80 years, according
to a survey Of the matter recently
completed by DR.. E. P. Alldredge,
secretary of Survey, Statistics and In
formation of the Baptist Sunday
School Board. His survey began with
1892, when Southern Baptists report
ed 1852 schools with an enrolment of
492,775. BY 1912, twenty years later,
the number Of schools had grown to
1921 with an enrolment of 1,2S4,O14,
while ten years later, in 1922, the
Of schools had mounted to
21,121, with an enrolment Of 2,2Ol,-
345.
But with all this growth it is found
that there are approximately 2,OO0,-
900 white Baptists in the South who
are not enrolled in Sunday school, and
a total Of 21,561, ,721 white persons in
the South who are not engaged in the
study Of the Bible in Sunday school.
According to these figures, less than
one-fourth the white people Of the
South attead Sunday school.

Notice to the Public

1t seems that the wrong impress i.m
has been made in regard to the dis
tribution of the funds collected for
the maintenance of the Salvation

have told our solicitors that they were
not in sympathy with the work and
especially for the reason that the
money is collected and sent out of
town. This report is not true and
they would be in sympathy and help
support same il they knew the actual
facts. Ten per cent of the money col
lected is sent 20 headquarters and bal
ance is to be used for the work here
in Union.

If Mrs. E. II. Warren, of Boston,
wife Of a well-known lawyer there
is successful she will be able with
in few years to introduce a new
variety of grapes to this country. At
this time when, the grape industry is
increasing steadily, the new variety
which Mrs. Warren proposes to in

to the rather limited list of grapes
now grown in this country.
The slips on which Mrs. Warren
is pinning such expectations have
just been brought by her from the
300 year old grape vine at Hamp-

George. She arrived at the Waldor:

uO HOx SUSUOo
The American Cotton association
has asked all Cooperative Msrkseine
associations to hold all cotton for q
30hc price. After thorough dis
cussion Of the average cost Of grow
ing the 1922 cotton crop as ascer-
tanned by the American Cotton asso-
citation the present shortage Of cotton
supplies and the prevailing low spot
market values offerei the grower, the
executive committee has unanimously
recommended that spot cotton be held
off the market for an average of all
grades of 3Ohc per pound as fair
and reasonable price.
The Cooperative Marketing associ-
ations all over tie South are urged
not to sacrifice the staple at less than
the cost of production.
