Mr. J. 'Mack King, supervisor. 1B considering a <l:auge in tko crops planted on the farra at ihe county home and one day tills week in com pany willi Mr. ?. M. Uyars, farm demonstration agent, made a trip out there to have the latter look at tho land and seo what was being done. It bas b^en tho custom to have as !l:e principal crops on the county farm, corn, oats and peas, no cotton being niantcd at all. This of course is a great deal better than plant ing all cotton but it has been suggest ed that a still better way would be to rotate. It is understood that Mr. King favors 'planting at least 50 acres in cotton each year, or one-Ilfth of the total acreage. However, some of tho other county commissioners it is said, disagree with him. There seemB to-be two good rea sons wfiy some cotton should be plant ed at the county farm, the first is that it will create a series of crop rota tions, and the second is that it wi'-l give tho inmates of the county home who are ablo to work, something to do all thc year round. Those who 'have studied soils and crop rotations claim that it is about as bad for land to bo planted to small grain all of the timo as it IJ for cot ton to bo the crop every year. Ali small grain crops feed from the top soil, wheroas, cotton has a long tap root and gets Its food supply deeper down in the soil. Another point in furor of cotted ?B the fact that its being planted occasionally lessens the danger of ti.o grain being damaged by diseases and insects. Frequently ex perts advise farmers to rotate their crops in . order to get rid .of certain harmful and1 destructive plant diseases and Insects. . In .regard to the latter tho presen'. ? system of farming at the county faun causes most of the work to come at the same time ot the year, and then during the other time there is nothing to do. For tlie past few. woeks tho labor at the county farm has been busy gathering corn sa that the land might be planted to oats. There has been a rush.and hustle to get the corn out of the way. If. somo cotton had been planted .tC:e small grain could have been sown between the cotton rows and a great deal of this work would havo been out of the way. The rotation of crops, it ls suggested, would enable the distribution of tho work BO that at nearly all times of the year, there would ' be something for the Inmates to do. Experts claim tl':at the ideal crop rotation for the south is corn 'and peas first year, grain and peas the second, then, cotton the third, etc. These men olaim that-this not only the best way to improve and preserv? the soil, hut 1B also the best method to utilizo Oie teams and labor- all. of the year. Mr. Byar? was well pleased with tho farming at the county home, and saya that someone certainly de-' serves credit fer the mannei In which the county farm ftad been kc;?, up and -is being improved. He staled !that splendid farming was being dono .out there and that it was modern. At present a car load of lime is hoing distributed on a ton acre field'which will neSt year be planted In'alfalfa. Oats will be sown on the land this fair followed by peas next spring. lt is not known-whether there will bo> any ol .ange in tho syBtern used on the farm or not, but it ls under stood that thia matter will bo brought before the meeting of tho county com missioners boff>re spring. \.

Dec. 2.-That the failure of the legislature to provide adequate funds for the Georgia militia may mean the disbandment of some of the companion and perhaps a great reduc tion in the efficiency of the commanda now established-, is learned from the capitol this morning. 'IUe department usked for an ap propriation of 155,000. It v/as recom mended by the- committee hut was later tamed down hy thc house and sonata. FL illy only $3?,000 was allowed. According to tho military department, the ?5:.,000 originally asked for was absolutely necessary for the payment of armory renta, caretakers and other legitimate ex pcuses. Facing a sure deficiency the dconrl raent, it is stated, has decided to ? i duce the strength of the nntlonil guard so as to bring it within t ie lim its of tho appropriation. The companies which will be drop ped, it is stated, will be chosen from among those which have failed to eenie np to tho required enlisted strength. + *?.**?*?*****+*+*?+*** * + . STANDING BY PRESIDENT * .fr ? The refusal of the Upper South Car olina Conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, to endorse a resolution protesting against Presi dent Wilson's preparedness program mo is of large slgnlflcance. It is a fair index, we. are sure, to the senti ment of the people ot South Carolina as represented in the churches. Tho Methodist of Upper South Carolina, in voting to expunge from the min utes of their convention any record of tho tact that such a resolution had been introduced, havo indicated in no uncertain manner how they stand on thiB great/public question.-News and Courier. Anyhow* Ford Takes It Ser.'onBly. "The time has coma, the walrus said-" '. -to write another editorial about Henry Ford. Wo are inclined more to the view of James Kelly of the Chicago Her ald, that thiB h; e. free country and Mr. Ford-can do anything with his money he wishes. The Herald says the beauty of the peace ship idea ?B that thero'B no hoard of directors to hamper and harass. Mr. Ford can take his friends on his trip and if he doesn't accomplish anything, nobody can kick. We prefer this attitude rathor thau that of The New York world, which is inclined to' take Mr. Ford and his band of/ enthusiasts to task for trying to inveigle our foxy presi dent into tho plan. Nobody, except Mmo. .Schwimmer and Mrs. Snowden maybe, expected the president to give his O. K. to the plan. He knowB what he can do through the proper channels. The president's safe enough oven from Mr.' Ford's 'schemes. But the attitude of tito Greensboro Daily News that'Ahls is another Ford joke somehow doesn't just suit us. We! don't like the stand Ford lias taken against preparedness and hts altogether Bryanesqpe statements' on the subject. But you must admit that Ford deserves Borne credit for hiB business success.

Nobody will find any fault with the motive of Henry Ford In endeavoring to lead to Europe an expedition of distinguished American men and wo men to meet thc distinguished men and women of Europe "to establinh an international conforenco dedicated to the negotiations leading to the Just settlement of tho war." But the con viction remains that such a confer ence, neting without official recogni tion from neutral or belligerent na tions, will not hasten the coming of peace by so much as one day. It ?B possible that one Bide or the other, farseeing defeat, would find it advantageous to use the. confereuce in ita efforts to end tho war before decisive defeat came, but that doesn't mean the ether side would consent to any modification of either of its plans for continuing the war or the de mnnds it would make upon its enemy. The best tho conference could hope for would be to got in readiness to act as the intermediary when one side or both became so desirous of peace that It would bo possible for them j to agree on peace terms. And ovon then it is likely that a /neutral power would be the interme diary selected and not this proposed organization of mon and women not ing as individuals and not OB official representativos of their governments. It is difficult to see what good they could'do by exerting all the pressure at their command upon either side.
