Why an Eight?
Continuous and Even
Flow of Power
The eight cylinder motor has a reason
many reasons.
And the process of evolution whereby the
Cole Motor Car Company arrived at the Eight is
one staircase of logical facts.
To begin with, let us take this one particular
fact as a. prim! basis: Ever since engineers have
been building internal combustion motors their
biggest problem has ht<m the lapse or interval or
power-break between cylinder explosions.
A power-break or lapse in the action of a
motor is a very bad-a very uncomfortable-a
very destructive thing. It racks the mechanism
not only of the motor itself, but of the entire car
as well. It jerks the life out of bearings and,
worst of all, it wears passengers out and makes
motoring uncomfortable. So engineers soon*
found that they would have to get rid of lapses.
It rides like a cradle at all speeds; its spont
aneous |ow of even .energy. is. ceaseless, and
silent, and it travels all the way on high.

In thc beginning of lils speech Mr.
Harrison stated that lie did not come
to Pendkton to talk as a railway
president but a* a fanner and that lita
mind naturally turned hack to ?he Lune
when he was living on the farm. Thc
subject of Mr. Harrison's speech was
"The Crooked Plow," and In his ad
dress ho reviewed the progress of tho
nlow from tho time of babylon up
until tho present day. The origin
of tho plow was discussed, tibe many
kinds used since that thu? and the
modem gasoline plow of today re
viewed. Mr. Harrison's address was
a great deal different from what waa
expected but nevertheless lt was Im
mensely enjoyed.

for tlie advancement of agriculture
in Uie United States than any of h lu
predcv ?sor?.
At Hie outset of ills nddr< ss Secre
tary Houston paid a splendid tributo
to Congressman Lever, uta!In,' that
he wes not only the Ixftt chairman
tho comiuitteo on agriculture the

investigators or marketing and rural
finance.'
Mr. Houston declared that trie
marketing of crops could not be done
by individuals. He declared that
lndividual'sm marks th<* agricultural
iutcrests of thc nation, and that aa
long as this exists our problema will
not be solved. Ho declared that
team-work, and co-operation arc abso
lutely necessary before you eau hope
to solve thone problems and that thea?*
are uuceBBary now more than ever be
fore.
Mr. Houston said- that this section
is committed to the two crop Systran,
cotton and com. principally because
tlie farmers do not know what to do
with auy other c.ropB they might rafse.
He said that SO per cent of the im
proved farm inndu of this section -ls
used for cotton and corn, ll? do
dared that wo should have other
crops; that we should plant more
grain, forage and cover crops for im
proving the soil. HeiBaid that this
move should be fol lo ww) by live stock
without which tho.success of agricul
ture cannot, bo obtained. Ho raid t int
there wa? 175,000 fewer cattle to!:iy
than they were in Sov .h Carolina 75
years ago with a population of throe
times aa large; that there aro 100,000

the United States wit;.in tlie past 15
years, and thc population has Increas
ed 23,000,000. Mr. Houston says that
?ho Increase lu ?neat animals will bo
due to the better handling of the
grazing lands in Uie west and thc in
troduction of the live stock, industry
In every section of tho i'nit ed States.
"And no section looks better to mo
thar, light here in the south."
Afternoon Exercises.
Governor Manning arrived in Pen
dleton yesterday at 12:45 o'clock and
after dinner he delivered an address
to a largo crowd. The seats on the
green were not half sufficient to ec
comodate tho audience *:nd they stood
all around the stand a.* J the edges of
the crowd.
Governor Manning stated that the
hud com?, to Pendleton to introduce
Mr. Fairfax Harrison, hut since ho
arrived too lato for thia, lt had been
asked of him to make a~Speech. He
-LOOK
Legan by prying honor to the Karin .
OIK' society for what lt had done for
thc educational and agricultural ad
vam < incut of the people of tl v Slat*.
"This society has contri bu ti-d much
to the citizenship of this section of
the ?tate," said (lev. Mannlug, "and
V ? purpose of tho founders of 100
years ago is just aa true today as it
was then. I learned willi regret that
Pre>rl<Jout Woodrow Wilsou would be
unable to (.'tend tills celebration and
would have considered it a great hou
or to tho ?tutu If it hud boon so he
could, I know he ls proud of the
people of South Carolina and we are
proud of him. In tho Democratic '
convention in lialthuore the South
Carolina delegation ntpod uti tue time
for Mr. Wilson and lt was my pleas
ure to announce that every single mun
voted for the man that toduy stands
as one of tho greatest presidents this
uutlon hus ever had and cine who ly
proving to bo ene ot th<< greatest mon
thc world has ever known. In these
troublesome times we must feel proud
bf a mau who ?as protected American
rt sh Ut and citizenship and has kept
I this lounlry out of a bloody sriug
glc."
Th iv. tributo to President Wilson
brought loud applause.
Continuing Mr. Manning said:
"It is a credit to South Cand?na to
have Secretary Houston to ?onie Into
the state ^unannounced and to make
a personal investigation of condition*
with the object. I know, to further
agricultural conditions In Soatfv Car
olina."
"Hight here lt would he well for
US' to review some of the records
mud?.- by South Carolina along agri
cultural lines. She elands leading
the world In tho number of buchels
of corn made on one acre; look at
Drake and Jerry Moore, thoy have
taught the people of the United States
how to raise corn. Down in lancas
ter thoy aro milking 2,(300 ponndB of
colton to the acre with no nrtlflch.l
fertilizer; and five bales of cotton aie
said to have been mad? on one ac:re
in Lexington county. In her quality
of sea island cotton this old stnto is
leading as also in the production of
rice per aero, having tho record of
110 bushels. Looking at some of
those figures lt ii no wonder that alie
has advanced from the 2.4th to tho
ISth place III tho production or agri
cultural products. In thc increase
for thc past 10 years South Carolina
stands second. These ligures may be
misleading, however, because the
averages In tho state nra not what
they should ho."
Continuing Mr. Manning compared
condition?? existing foriny with. thOSS
of this time last] year, stating that tho
war completely 'demoralized everyone
In 1914. Mr. Manning atated that
the present price of cotton was nut
ting some money into the pockets of
the nlanter and that this was !?. .nglrig
.about a contented condition. He re
viewed figures chowing now much
tills state spent for commercial ferti
lizer In the year 1014. which amount
ed to aproxlmatoly $31,000,000. He
stated that the farmer must stop
spending so much for fertilizer and
must lmpr|pvo hi? land. Ho thoh
I discussed the question of the boys and
I girls flocking from the farms to the
>cjtles and said that this-was a probr
lem to be solved. Ho stated that the.
products of the farm had to be in
creased so that the boy and twirls In
tho couutry wou'd bo able to make as
much and livo under tho same con
ditions 03 in the cities.
Governor Manning closed his ad
dress by stating that he would favor
tho passage of a law which would en
able the farmers to convert their land
Into collateral. Also the rural credit
syotem which would enable thc 43 per
cent of tho white-people in South Car
olina on firms to own their own
land. He stated that he would ..ivor
an appropriation to bc used far the
eradication of Gio cattle tick lr. South
Carolina. In ?dosing he vrged tho
people to educate their chu tren and
not to be satisfied with thc.r present
school facilities.
Governor Manning was loudly
cheered at the close of his speech, and
BOIR? of the Clemson cadets who wcro
present gave several yells for the
governor and for Pendleton.'
Tho next speaker was Capt. Stoney
of Charleston. His speech lasted on
ly a few minute:; and was followed by
the grand parade.
