The microphone talks around the world. Man’s latest defeat of nature is the creation of an artifi cial ear “a thousand times more sensi tive than the human ear, that picks up the faintest danger signals coming through the fog and tells the direction whence they come.” Anything that men can imagiiiu they can do. Forty-five chain store organizations in June did $236,281,747 business, gaining 23 per cent in a year. Sears, Roebuck stands first with June sales of $25,Y4t,979; Woolworth next, $23,000,000; Montgomery Ward third, $21,000,000. Newspaper publishers are interest ed in the policy of General Wood, a West Pointer, now president of Sears, Roebuck. He is constantly building re tail stores, promoting them with news paper advertising. Sears, Roebuck, it is said, plan sev eral retail stores in all big cities, one in each smaller city. While the government thinks about it. Mother Nature helps some farmers by injuring the wheat crop here and in the Canadian northwest The price of wheat went up every where, Chicago, Winnipeg, London, Beunos Aires, touching $1.36 a bushel. The price was 96 cents a few weeks ago. It is not so pleasant for those farm ers whose wheat is “irrepa’-ably ruined.” FARM RELIEF LEGISLATION (By Dr. Wade Stackhouse, Dillon, S. C.) Many Democratic members of con gress believe, and have said, that the Farm Relief bill recently enacted by congress would not afford us any re lief. They think debenture legislation will be necessary before we in the South will feel any practical benefit. I beg to differ with them. I have sand all the time the first effect of the Farm Board on commodity prices would be psychological. In proof of this I point to a rise in wheat values in only a few days of 45 cents per bushel. Much of this rise came before it was known that great depreciation had taken place in the American and Canadian wheat crop. The acreage of com in the West is about as large as at any time in our history. The com crop is said to be making a splendid growth And yet the price of com is up 12 to 15 cents i>er bushel. It is claimed the advance in com is due to the high er price of wheat. The Farm Board is to be provided with a five hundred million dollar fund to Aid depressed agriculture. This can only mean % half billion dollar fund in the hands of competent busi ness men is to be used to increase the price of farm products. What group of bears on any market; wheat, cotton, pork, etc., would be willing to go very short in the face of the present law? The Farm Board has very wide dis cretionary powers, and it would be possible to inflict on any group of bears almost mortal punishment if any crop, like cotton, should be de pressed as it was in 1926 far below the cost of production. ‘The passage of the Farm Relief act gives me considerable comfort when I look forward to selling my crop of cotton and tobacco thia fall. With half a billion dollar furid to boose values, there is more chance for speculators to make money by bulling the market than to bear it. be reorganised or replaced. In other worda, the Farm Board should be the big boss to see that the highest efficiency is practiced by each cooperative. It is my understanding that a two million dollar fund is pro vided to lend cooperatives to assist them in organizing, or to increase their membership. It is my suggestion to both cotton and tobacco cooperatives that they get in touch with the Farm Board so as to get their influence as well as any cash loans possible in order to effect organization. We urgently need a bright leaf tobacco* association headed by the best and most experienced bus iness brain in the country. We need to expand the South Carolina Cotton Co operative association so that it may handle fully ten times the cotton re ceived the past season. If our associ- ' ation could handle one-third the South Carolina cotton crop this fall, our cost per bale should be as low as that of Sprunt and Son, Anderson-Clayton, or any other of our largest cotton firms. I believe the passage of the Farm Relief bill marks the beginning of a new day in agriculture. I think the law can be amended so as to make it more effective; but I do not think a debenture clause will be the remedy. Time proves every disputed question. Let us watch and wait. , of the cotton. A brine solution should be sprinkled over all infested stalka, particularly on the underside of the eotton leaves. The pest can be easily controlled by the applications of salt water provided its breeding places have already been destroyed, the ware house commissioner '^id. WHAT DO P. S. JEANES DO? Coal!

Satan, of course, edu cated that bird, far back in tae Gar den of Eden, very likely. The real value of the Farm Board is not going to come thsi fall. It is going to come through their effort and ability to secure almost universal co-operative marketing. They should see that the biggest men handling each crop heads the stabilization of such crop. These men know to a frac tion of a cent what it costs to handle cotton, wheat, corn, pork, etc. The Farm Board, by a uniform auditing system, should see that there is no ex travagance in any co-operative asso ciation. When a state cooperative is out of line in handling cost, it should Red Spider Ih^ Harming Cotton Columbia, July 28,—Much cotton in the state is infested with red spider, J. Clifton Rivers, stata warehouse commissioner, announc.^l, saying that he has been receiving many inquiries from widely separated communities on the most effective method of rid ding the crop of the pest. At this season of the year, Mr. Riv- ers said, the red spider comes from its breeding places in old stumps, poke stalks, briar patches, and pink and violet beds. Like flying ants, they swarm out of these places and take up new positions on the cotton plants. The first, and most effective way to stamp them out is by destroying them at the points of hibernation. In old stunvps they should be burned out. In poke stalks briais and flower beds they should be dug out and burned at once. Where the spider is allowed to con tinue breeding it will continue to mar and destroy large areas of adjacent cotton, Mr. Rivers said. A solution of common salt should be used in fighting the spider wheje it has already begun to take possession MORE PEOPLE RIDE ON GOODYEAR TIRES THAN ON ANY OTHER KIND When the consensus of opinion, as represented by dollars laid down on the counter, is the same everywhere among the people who drive aU kinds of cars over all kinds of roads— You can bank on it that there are good sound reasons behind such concerted action. The opinion, on tires, is that Goodyears lead all other makes in ability to stand up and deliver the lowest cost mileage. Blore people~-and the number increases daily—ride on Godyear Tires and^BUY Goodyear Tires in preference to any other kind. This one fact overrides all argument. And it places Goodyear in the position of being able to give the great est quality value for the least money—because it costs less to make tires When you make millions more of them than does any other company.

WBAt DO P. S. JEANES " Detroit, July 31.—For the first time in the history of the automobile indus try, six cylinder cars promise to lend the field in production thjs year, ac cording to a survey by the Chevrolet Motor company completed today. Up until this year four cylinder cars ranked first in annual production vol ume. Comparative production figures for the first six months of this year are offered in support of the forecast. During this period there were pro duced approximately 1,900,000 sixes as compared with approximately 1,265,- 000 fours, an indication of what the total for the year is apt to be. How the change comes about is il lustrated in the survey. Chevrolet’s manufacturing goal for the year is 1,350,000 cars. Chevrolet’s change over from a four to a six means a de>| duction of this enormous total from the four-cylinder field and adds it to the six cylinder field. How the automobile picture has changed almost overnight will be not ed in an inspection of the l928 show ing. Last year when Chevrolet was producing a four cylinder car, four cylinder manufacturers built approx imately 2,098,000 cars, with one large manufacturer of four cylinder cars on limited production due to model change, while six cylinder manufac turers were making 1,617,000 cars. As it now stands the year 1929 should show approximately 3,000,000 six cylinder units as compared to only 2,250,000 four cylinder units. Consequently, this significant devel opment, which will make the current year an epochal one in the annals of the automobile business; comes about chiefly as a result o7 the entrance of Chevrolet into the six cylinder field. In lay circles, this event is seen as a tribute to the automobile Indtkstry and the newest step which this gigantic business has taken in the dir^tion of constantly offering its patrons more Automobile per -dollar. Great volume production, coupled with expert direction in the engineer ing, manufacturing and sailing branch es of the business are given as rea sons that are making it possible for the automobile industry to lead all rotlwTt in giving the public the utmost for its money. jAPMiese ITAUAN Measured by every standard, the American worker U truly "on top of the world”. Here in- South Carolina our textile, workers, with their comfortable homes, congenial community life, opportunities for recreation and amusement, reasonable living wag;e, and substantial wage equi ale.nts, are maintaining r standard of living not even approached by textile operatives in any ether nation on earth. Accordin; wages more Germany, show that he re:eivs3 15 tim^s as mj^ch as in Ch;~a. These compar.srns represent only the money wage, and the fuestion is frequently raised as to how much these wages will bry in the countries where they prevail. The purchasing power of the money wage is the true standard of earnings. President Hoover, in a spee h dealing with ^comparative wages in foreign countries,’sSld,‘“Our real-wages, and of living the highest in fhe world. And again I am speaking of the real buying power of wages.” To Illustrate this point, Mr. Hoover adopted as a unit of value a pound of bread-and butter (95 per cent v^eat flour and 5 oer cent butter). The number of pounds of Bread and butter that a weaver in various countries can purchase with his weekly wages are shown in the following table: . “TTNTTBD STATES 323 lbs. ^ United Kingdom 136 lbs.
