Among them Is the contrariness of the trains. Wo never expected the old Columbia and Greenville train to be hue every night ?as It has been for the last three? and at this Important time when we were expecting news In the mall from the legislature jn Columbia and from tov.nB south of Bclton. The Blur U'.dgc can't miss connec tions at Seneca and goes off and leaves the mail at Belton and we have important letters in the pouch thero which come In on the train the next morning. This is a matter which Is unjust to the citions of An derson. With several trains coming to Anderson every night af:er the last mall train, It does seem - that the through . mall should get here Bomehow. TbiB is a nut tor Con gressman Alken to cradle.

Wutrfon. Commissioner of Agriculture, Commerce and Indus-1 trios.) When I glance over tlu> record of achievement :it the end of the year 1913 that is all around me, and I have my vision of what the year 1914 holds for the man who tills ihr soil and pro duces wealth and thereby makes busl no is activity for his fellows In other callings, in my mind's eye I see a pic ture that 1 feel like stopping and car essing. It is the same picture that I saw in the spring ol 1904 in the shadow when tin- tanner was looking down upon Iiis calling, when the farm boy and girl were leaving their homes ar.d going to the citlhs, when the profit? of the farm were but scant and when economic developments on all lines was Just about standing still. The only and the great difference is that the picture is now real and that its realism la dawning upon the outside world. We have every reason to be pn.ud of South Carolina's achieve ment during 1913. The establishment of a dally news paper, such as The Intejllgcncer will and must be. In the live center of tr?. naturally richest agricultural produc ing section of the State, blessed by na ture also with abundant water power to make possible great studies In the mechanic arts, Is a needed and an im portant Rtep in the program of prog ress for 1914 and the succeeding years. The energies of all the forces mak ing for the development of this State during the past year have been direct ed along definite lines, each having as Its ultimate end results measured in dollars nnd cents. Hard hut most . essential economic facts have been pounded home with a vigor never In dulged In before. The effort has been made by plain, direct talk straight to the peool^ to show them the folly of things they have been wasting their time upon and to, point out to them those lines of procedure making for their ultimate prosperity and happl neas. The effort has been made to reach the average man on the farm who does not reside near a town but who lives In the far-rural districts and to arouse his ambition and get him going. The average man in South Car olina today who Is.tengaged in :.gri? culture is doing mote hard -.thinking for himBelf than ever before in the history of the State. He la. simply crying for information and he has Jest the Idea that every man who comer, to him merely a tbcoriUcal lecturer or a political vote getter, whoso,sole ob ject in life hs? l osa to fool hint and to make him neglect his work ou account of politico nnd leave blip In the lurch, when th eolectlon was over. He jSfas teen shown and 13 being .shown that, he Is waatlng his birthright. No mat ter whether cotton be 10c or. 20c por pound. If ho throws U away, by buying mules and horaos and canned goods, and every other thing that he en's and ihut hin animals eat from people who grind the materials up, make them look pretty, put them in beautiful sacks and ship them to him from the west. He has been shown that his en ormous expenditure, because ho makes no effcort to ralso something to eat at home to enable him.to take care of Uls cotton ami will 1-cep poor for ever. He has had pounded Into him the almost crimlual lolloy of spending the fancy sum of more than 125,000,000 a year for fancy mixed fertiliser and ha? hp?n told how to buy ?rst-clasb raw materials that he needs and mir the materials at home and how to farm the air with legumes. a*nd bus been mado to understand how essential (a and agricultural industry is the own ing and keeping of live-stock. In other words the plain, straight from the shoulder educational cam paign based on sound economics nas he?m waged from one end of the State to the other. It has been couplod with tho effort to give the farmer a full understanding of the value of feeds to give him light on food adult?rations and to pull the scales from his eyes in a hundred other different direction and I thank high heavens that h" has welcomed plain talk and Is proilting by it I could not begin to outline in the COtiree t>? his brief :;r;;. to the diverse linos of activity that ahve been pur sued, bodltu waahi atos med, but I do wl?i> ?/> ????eri thai w?cry une of them have been taken up be cause they bad a result measure In dol lars and cents Islnhgt lars and cents In sight, a result that could be from Ute very nature of con ditions obtained. We have workedwith Ute knowledge that the only thing that Is absolutely convincing to the farmer or anybody olse for that matter, is that thing which at the end of the year brings money returns. We havo even put Into full operation a practical clearing house minus any middleman Dr middleman's charge between the farmers and merchants, by which tranaacttons can be effected within twenty-four hours and it Is growing In strength and effectiveness with each succeeding week. The coming year brings with it the ibaoluto necessity for increased ef fort to cut down living expenses in Ihc things now bought from other li?tes that can bo rawed at home; to ?atabltsh ab intelligent meat produc ing and land enriching live stock ln ?ustry; to lm i??u>ie understand .vitat introduction of the use of Jlme itont* means t& oncetlrWg'e the "grow - Message From Commissioner Wa ally Richest Agricultural ! of the State" !np of legumes for the enrichment of ; the ?oll und for forage for live stock, and ubove all, to snve somethlng.of j credit, which alter all Ik the costliest. drain that now rock to the misuse of I commercial fertilizer because issoit commercial fertillzer*because it is so I easy to buy it mixed in a sack on long credit, which after all is the costliest ? redit in tin; world. This year, too we are undertaking to form coop?rative] marketing groups, perhaps In the Fanner's union, which 1 perfer, and j to establish rural credit banks. At : two points Serious attention has al- I ready been given to tile latter. This year, too, the greatest effort that we j have ever made to firing about genuine i good roads will be undertaken.
