Agriculture Sets New Re cord

Manila, P. l., Nov. 22.-The high
water mark was reached in Philip
pine agriculture in the year 1921 in
sofar as the area planted to the six
leading crops of the island is con-
cerned, according to the annual re
port of the bureau of agriculture
In that year, 8,78S,967 acres was cur-
tivated, compared with 8,192,35.i
acres in 1920.
Notwithstanding the increase ir
acreage, the year was one of general
dissatisfaction from financial
standpoint, the report says.
Because of the record prices pre-.
valent during 1919 and 1920 the cui
tivation of edible crops, especially
rice and sugar, was greatly extended
The area planted to rice in 1921 was
increased by 1877 percent, to suga
by 22.3 percent, to cocoanuts by 5.3
percent and to corn by 1.2 percent.
"In yield per acre, 1921 also show
an increase Of 1.2 percent in rice
and 3.4 percent in sugar cane over
that of 1920, but market conditions
were such that in spite of the in
creases in area and yield the valu
of all Philippine crops fell from $343,-
565,000 in 1920 to $2O1 ,629, 900 T..
1921, or about forty percent"

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2s. 1922

.Clemenceau declares that Germany
is preparing for another war. This
may be true, but it is also probable
that the great soldier Of France is
unduly alarmed. IT is no wonder that
he should be alarmed when, in the
rnst war France won her victory at
he cost Of some five million men, dead
end manned. One of the great trou-
bles with the nations all over the
world is that they are "seeing red"
They have "blooi in the eyes," Some
cay the wonderful teaching Of Jesus
Christ is going 10 teach a better way.
at present there is no room among
the nations for Jesus. Good will, fell
lowship, service. mercy and gentleness
find little room in the hearts Of the
peoples of the earth. A desire to
crush, kill, destroy seems to dominate
the heart of all. But it may be that
the present dark clouds promise a
bright dawn. An appeal to the sword
is only a makeshift, and poor one at
that. This does not mean that a ma
t;cn should allow itself to fall AZ. co
e state Of unpreparedness. So long
as :he.e is one untamed brute at
large there will be the necessity Of
carrying gun. But the great need
is that the hearts Of men be trans
f,rmed. There is only one thing that
can DO this-God's grace. The old
selfish nature must be changed. Men
must be brought to a realization Of
their accountability to God. Until God
he enthroned in the hearts of men,
r,urder, arson and every evil thing
will 60 on.

Greenwood Woman
Has Marrow Escape

Greenwood, Nov. 81. - Plunging
over a Is foot embankment into q
pool where her head was submerged,
Mrs. A. 7. Jamison, wife of DR.. A. T.
damison, superintendent Of Connie
Maxwell Orphanage, narrowly escaped
death shortly after 3 o'clock this af-
ternoon VIXEN she lost control of a
coupe she was driving. A negro, dig

the orphanage, where the accident oc-
CURED, rescued Mrs. Jamison. She
was uninjured, not even being cut by
shattered glass Of the car. Two lit
lie girls, Billy and EEnmie Lse Nor
gan, who were with Mrs. Jamison
were also unhurr, except for slight
cuts suffered by Emmiei Lee.
Mrs. Jamison could not explain how
sne lost control of her car. She had
started to Lander College to take the
little girls for their music lessons
when in some unaccountable way, tn
car swerved from the roadway ano
plunged into the creek. Had it no,
been for the timely arrival of the me-
gro, Mrs. Jamison would have drown
ed.
One Of the little girls said she had
bunch of flowers which she was ar
ranging for her teacher, and Mrs
Jamison must have glanced at them
allowing the car to swerve from the
road. DR.. w. +. Turner, who hap
pened to pass few moments after
the accident, examined the occupants
ct the wrecked car and pronounced
them all uninjured. The two children
make their home with DR.. and Mrs
Jamison.
