To Find Defects in Various Industries and Work out Plans Necessary to Eliminate Them. Prof. E. C. Branson, of the State Normal School of Athens, Ga., after having inaugurated a "Know Your Own State" move ment in that State, arrived at the university last week to start a similar movement in South Caro lina. The object of the movement is, as its name indicates, to become thoroughly acquainted with one's own State. Taking first the State as a whole, then county by county, and studying, not its history but its future progress. What can the individual do to aid in its prog ress? Is the State going forward, marking time, or declining? These are questions which must be answered and the faults reme died by the rising generations. Prof. Branson said that the wealth created by the farms alone during the last census year exceeded that created by all in dustries of the state during the previous 200 years. The wealth created by the av erage farm in South Carolina for one year was nearly 33 per cent greater than that of the average farm of the entire United States. With this great annual creation of wealth,, some $298,000,000, the surplus accumulation of each in dividual was less than 1-3 of a cent per day. Where does the money go? The leak must be found and stopped if we are to progress. The fact of having ac cumulated this wealth does the State no good if she can show no surplus with which to pursue other courses of industry. Prof. Branson purposes to or ganize county groups in the va rious State colleges and get them started along lines of investiga tion. After they have found the defects they can formulate plans for their elimination which may 'best suit the conditions of the particular community. Prof. Branson has organized a great work and very beneficial results are looked for from the efforts of the various groups, re ports of which will be published from time to time.
