Quit howling and sow oats.
^ * m
"Buy a. Bale" is the slogan
everywhere now.
+
Sow vetch with your oats, and
shut out that Western hay we
have been buying.
Vetch and oats make much
better hay than you can buy.
Why don't you sow some
NOW?
This paper is four years old
today, September 16th. Oh, yes,
that dollar would be real nice as
a birthday gift.
We don't believe there will be
any corn, oats or hay shipped to
Pageland in 1915 and you had
better prepare now to feed your
own stock.
^ ^ ?.
The crop of corn in this section
is fine, and there is no reason
why our farmers should bu>shipped
corn or oats next spring.
Decide now that you will not
buy any Western corn, oats or
hay next year.
^ +
Never before have all the people
realized so keenly that the
farmer is the "backbone of the
nation." Upon his prosperity
depends that of every other profession,
and this fact is being
realized all over the land just
now.

In another column is an article
about the purposes of the session
\ the South Carolina legisla~
^Uik, has l>pp.n V
meet on Tuesday, October 6.
It will be remembered that Governor
Blease threatened to refuse
to call the legislature together
if the people did not elect
John G. Richards governor in
the second primary. The peo
pie did not elect Mr. Richards,
ancLit is to the governor's credit
that he has called for the legislature
to convene. His recommendations
are timely, and he is to
be commended for this action.

The "Buy a Bale" movement
is the most practical plan so far
advanced for handling the pres
ent Dig crop of cotton, in the
opinion of about every man we
have heard speak of it, and it is
already having some "effect on
the price of cotton. The plan is
for every man everywhere who
possibly can to buy a bale of cotton
from a farmer who is bound
to sell and to pay ten cents per
pound and hold the cotton until
it will sell for ten cents on the
market. The movement is not
confined to,South Carolina nor
to the South, but it is spreading
into the North, and if the interest
does not abate, enough of
thefcrop will be bought in this
way to force the market up to
ten cents. Every farmer is asked
to hold at least one bale, and i
every farmer who can is asked
to hold his entire crop for ten
cents. Some of the merchants
are offering ten cents on their
accounts, and some of the fertilizer
companies are taking cotton
at ton
?w.i v-ciiis as payment tor fertilizer
accounts. England, France
and Russia are beating the Germans
back and it is hoped that
peace may come within thirty
or sixty days. If not peace, it is
believed by many that England
will soon have control of the
seas and that shipping may be
engaged in with safety.
The outlook is not as bad as it
could be, a(nd the farmers are
preparing for next year by sowing
large quantities of oats,
vetch and clovers.
Daily War Reports

northeast, while on the extreme a
right the army of the Bavarian *
crown prince, which was attacking
the French eastern line from
Nancy to Epinal, has fallen back
to the frontiers of Lorraine, permitting
the French to reoccupy
Luneville and several other
towns.
TUESDAY
London, Sept. -14.?Except for
the army which had been attacking
Verdon, the German forces
in France have fallen back all
along the line, according to the
French official report issued this
afternoon.
From Nancv to the Vosges

extreme right Gen. von Kluck j
and Gen. von Buelow continue j
to retreat to the northeast before

up their defensive position
on the river Aisne between J
Compiegne and Soissons.
Paris, Sept. 14.?Pursuit of the .
retreating German armies by the
British and French forces continued
today with vigor, according
to the French view. I
Despite their great numbers,
the German withdrawing move- ,
ment is being carried out with <
rapidity and cleverness. The
main body appears to be aproach- 1

the German left wing seemingly
is gaining shelter in German
Lorraine. <
What He Said '
A Roanoke mother took her
small daughter to have her pic
ture made. The little girl refused
to sit still, wiggled around ?
and was naughty in general.
George Davis, Roanoke's popular
photographer told the mother
to leave the room as he
thought that by that means he
could get the "little darling" to

After the mother and child
left the place, the mother asked,
"What did the nice gentleman
say to mother's little darling to
make her sit so still?" And the
child replied:
"He tiled, 'You thit thtil), you
little devil, or I will knock the

Sow Crimson Clover
and Save Fertilizer Ellis
The indications are that prie s of
fertilizer the coming1 season will he
much higher than usual, owing to the
fact that the supply of fertilizer materials
will be largely cut oft' on account,
of the Europeafi war. This
should cause farmers cv .-ywhere to
put land in croos that v. save fertilizcr
bills. "Nothing v\ .ii d<> this better
than Crimson Clover. It is unquestionably
one of the host soil-improvers
that cai^bo put in, and wherever
it is grown, it gives largely increased
crops of corn, cotton and tobacco.
We have secured more liberal supplies
of Crimson Clover than was expected
and will be able to sell at
inucii more reasonable prices than
was anticipated.
