PARIS. November 11.-Premier Ray
mond Poincare has had a long con-
ference with Marshal Ferdinand Foch,
and the issue of war and peace in the
near east seems to be in the balance
once more.
The French government still re-
fuses to envisage war as an inescap-
able probability. but the writer's in
formation Is that II Turkish hatred
of Greece, intransigeance and provo

swing all over South Carolina and
splendid Roadway is being made to-
wards the goal of 100000 bales, ac-
cording to Harry G. Hammer, prcsi-
dent of the South Carolina Cotton
Growers Cooperative Association.
Absolutely no opposition to the
plan has developed according to Mr..
Hammer, who says that the people of
the state seem agreed that it is the
solution of the marketing problem.
Everywhere the people seem to be
enthusiastic over its possibilities, he
says, and it now seems to be merely
question of getting the men in each
county to make the canvass for sig
natures.
The plan has been endorsed by the
agricultural committee and executive
committee of the South Carolina
Bankers Association, the various dis
trlct group councils, the State Fair
Society, the House Of Representatives
the South Carolina Division of the
American Cotton Association, many
chambers of commerce and other or
ganizations. In every instance the
endorsement has been by unanimous
vote.
Large and small farmers are sign
| ing the contract, according to presi-
! dent kaminer and he declares that the
| plan will be just as profitable pro-
pOrtionatcly to the one as to the 9th
CT.
Darlington county continues to lead
the state in the number of bales
signed but several other counties are
crawling close to its figure, said Mr.
kamincr. B. d. Dargan, county d.
rector for Darlington county insists
however, that his county will lead tn,
state in the number Of bales signed
Practically no rcfusals are being
met with it was said by Mr.. Kamincr
Some of the growers wish, of course
to study the plan carefully but prac-
ticaily all Of them seem willing to
sign after they have thought the
matter over.
Meetings are being held in almost
every county in the state at which
the plans and purposes of the or
ganization are being explained and
reports from every county tell of
enthusiasm for the plan, according to
Mr.. Hammer who feels sure that
South Carolina will sccl it's 1922 CROP
comparatively as will at least ten
other states Of the belt.

ton, such as any union of farmers
must be at best, cannot be so arbi-
trarily and promptly controlled as a
great corporation. The one is a lum-
bering democracy and the other an
agile autocracy. In the second place,
with all possible power of organiza-
tion, the farmers cannot succeed to
any great extent, or for any consider
able length of time, in fixing prices.
The great law of supply and demand
works in various and surprising ways
to the undoing of the best laid plans
that attempt to foil it. In the third
place, their power will avail the farm
crs nothing if it be abused. In our

and dependable returns to the pro-
ducer.

quality, certain supply, and reasonable
and relatively steady prices. They
have not found it necessary to resort
to any special privilege, or to claim
and exemption under the antitrust
legislation of the state or nation. With
out removing local control, they have
built up q very efficient marketing
agency. The grain, cotton, and to-
bacco farmers, and the producers of
hides and wool, because Of their num-
bers and the vastness Of their regions
and for other reasons, have found
lntegration q more difficult task;
though there are now some thousands
of farmers cooperative elevators,
warehouses, creameries, and other en-
terprises Of one sort and another,
with turnover of billion dollers a
year. They are giving the farmers
business experience and training, and,
so far as they go, they meet the need
of honest weighing and fair grading;
but they do not meet the requirements
of nationally adjusted marketing in
any large and fundamental way.
The next step, which will be pat

ADVICE

In seeking fortune l would say,
IT'S hard to choose an easy way,
But casting DER the land to nd
The proper breed of hogs, or kind,
Select the one with grace and beauty,
But better still is one for duty.
Success one finds if when he knows
how.
A tip to you, take the Old Red Sow,
Rustling, seeking all the while
Food to find where as beguilc
Through summers sun and winters
storm,
Each seasons duty to perform.
Large littcrs she must surely bear,
And raise them with the utmost care,
Never failing, always true,
What's her duty she must do.
Success is yours fofevcr now
TO pin your faith in the Old Red Sow,
From Lakes to Gulf, from coast to
coast,
Within that area there is a host
OF high class Durocs, to be sure;
But few the kind of secure;
You may travel long throughout this
space,
But at last for real Duroces you will
find the place.

ton and is thought by some to be in
conflict with the antitrust laws.
Though there is now before congress
measure designed to clear up doubt
on this. point, the grain producers are
not. relying on any immunity from
antitrust legislation. They desire,
and they are entitled, to coordinate
their efforts just as effectively as the
large business interests of the coun-
try have done. In connection with
the selling organizations the United
States Grain Growers Incorporated
is drafting a scheme of financing in
strumentalities and auxiliary agen-
cies which are indispensable to the
successful utilization of modern bust
ness methods.
1t is essential that the farmers
should proceed gradually with these
plans, and aim to avoid the error Of
scrapping the existing marketing ma
chinery, which has been so laboriously
built up by long experience, before
they have tried ond proved substi-
tute or supplementary mechanism.
They must be careful not to become
enmeshed in their own reforms and
lose the perspective of their place in
the national system. They must guard
against fanatical devotion to new doc
trines, and should seek articulation
with the general economic system
rather than it's reckless destruction
as it relates to them.

TO take a tolerant and sympathetic
view of the farmers striving for bet
ter things is not to give blanket
endorsement to any specific plan, and
still less to applaud the vagaries of
some of their leaders and groups.
Neither should we, on the other hand,
allow the froth of bitter agitation,
false economics, and mistaken radical
ism to conceal the facts of the farm
ers' disadvantages, and the practic-
ability of eliminating them by we'll
considered measures. 1t may be that
the farmers will not show the busi-
ness sagacity and develop the wise
leadership to carry through sound
plans; but that possibility does not
justify the obstruction of their up
ward efforts. We, as city people, see
in high and spcculatively manipulated
prices, spoilage, waste, scarcity, the
results of defective distribution of
farm products. Should it not occur
to us that we have common interest
with the farm6r in his attempts to at
tain a degree of efficiency in distribu-
tion corresponding to his efficiency in
production? Do not the recent fluc-
tuations in the May wheat option, ap-
parently unrelated to normal interac-
ton of supply and demand, offer a
timely proof of the need Of some such
stabilizing agency as the grain grow
crs have in contemplation?
1t is contended that, if their pro-
posed organizations be perfected and
operated, the farmers will have in
their hands an instrument that will be
capable of dangerous abuse. We are
told that it will be possible to pervert
it to arbitrary and oppressive price
fixing from it's legitimate use of order
ing and stabilizing the flow of farm
products to the market to the mutual
benefit of producer and consumer. l
have no apprehensions on this point.
