WEEKLY BULLl
BUREAU
News to Publish "Was
Benefit of Many
During the past week the State
Bureau of Marketing was called upon
twice from points beyond the
borders of the state for supplies of
farm products that were needed.
Oifaof these calls was Trom a sister
st;re^for 50 car loads of alfalfa for
May and June shlDments from this
state. While alfalfa is being grown
generally in York county and the
Quality is exceedingly good, the
Alfalfa association in that territory
were unable to give quotations for
the months requested. The size of
the call, however, shows that there
Is a demand for all the alfalfa that
can be raised for some time to come
in the immediate section.
A wholesale fruit and produce
company in Atlanta made inquiry
this week as to the farmer offering
meat at 15 cents per pound and wishing
to enter into arrangements to
take up all of the supply and develop
a considerable trade with this meat
obtained direct from the purchaser.
The general run of business of
the territory during the week just
closed has been perhaps as successful
as at any period during the existance
of the Burea. In Washington,
by the way. before the United
States senate committee the operations
of the Bureau received considerable
attention.
In connection with the operations
of the Bureau the commissioner
would call attention of the farmers!
to the fact that at the marl plant
operated In connection with the department
of agriculture there Is now
a considerable accumulated supply
which can he delivered quickly. As
the marl is of such a nature that
It can be used at any time even
duVBg the growing season the
Bu>#*iu would recommend the placing
of orders for marl at once, before
the plant is shut down for installment
of additional machinery
fop the summer and fall seasons.
During the week the Bureau has
received numerous inquiries from
patrons as to whether or not the department
of agriculture was continuing
to furnish inoculation for all
legumes at 40 cents per acre delivered.
The announcement is therefore
made that inoculation for all leguminous
crops is furnished by the de^
partment at 4 0 cents an acre, the
same as last year and there is an
abunant supply of fresh and vigorous
cultures on hand now.

DAIRY COWS FOR THE FAMILY
No Other Animal on Farm Will Bo

?Small Pasture Ample.
The dairy cows will be a very important
factor in the food supply this

important in supplying food for the
family. Land owners who have tenantB

of their food before their crops are

a pasture. If there is only a very
small pasture the farmer may plant
soiling crops and thus keep a cow
i very economically.
The dairy cows under reasonable
I conditions will save nearly or quite
half of the expenses of a small family.

Since we nre to feed ourselves this
year instead of the cotton speculators.
why not Invest in at least enough
cows to supply the family table with
all the milk and butter that can be
used?
I Most farmers could well afford to
raise a few heifers every year. There
is very little difficulty in selling good
' cows. With a silo, a few acres in
permanent pasture and crops for grazing
at times when the permanent pasture
and the silo may not be suffl|
clent, will cost very little to raise
two or three heifers every year.
Try It. Use some of the acreage

Fowls for Breeding.
The bens and pullets that began to
lay last fall and which laid well during
the early winter should be bred

Fought. I]
Rock, Hill, April 25.?The annual j
reunion of the South Carolina di-j
vision of United Confederate Vote- ^
rans was formally opened this morn- j
ing at 10 o'clock In Friedhelm's hall
when ('apt. I,. M. Davis of Charlotte,
a member of Catawba camp of Vete- (
rans of this city, called the conven- ,
tion to order.
A choir led in singing the doxology j
and the invocation was made by
Lieut. Col. F. O. S. Curtis, D. I).. ,
chaplain of the South Carolina divi-1 ,
sion. ,
x On behalf of the state, Gov. Richard
I. Manning made an address of j <
welcome to the veterans. The gov- '
ernor's message to the veterans was 1
brief, but delivered with earnestness I
and feeling. He stressed the fact i
that the slavery question was not the i
outstanding fact of the war in which
the south engaged, and that the south \
did not fight to preserve slavery, i
Slavery presented but one problem.1!
was but one phase of the conflict. [,
The question at isue was the ques- |
tion of constitutional rights, which |
in its last analysis was the question
of human liberty. The south fought <
for the principle of local self govern \
ment, a principle guaranteed by the .
sonstitution. ! (
Welcome to Hock Hill ' <
,
Gov. Manning was followed by
Mayor W. G. Stevens and John T.
Roddey, president of the Chambe:* '
of Commerce, who welcomed the veterans
on behalf of the city ami all
its interests. Mayor Stevens presented
the keys of the city to Maj.
( en. 15. H. Teague and Mr. Roddey'
urged theiu to take possession and j
help themselves to anything whim ,
caught their fancy.
Speaking for the Daughters of the]
Confederacy, Mrs. E. E. Cloud, president
of Ann White chapter of this
city, gave the veterans a cordial welcome.
assuring them of the affection1
of the Daughters and the pleasure of
the local chapters in being ahle to
assist in their reception and enterainment.
Miss Minnie DeFoix Done,
president of the E. M. Law chapter
of the Children of the Confederacy,
presented to Con. Teague a beautiful
bonnet of white and red earns-i
tions. accompanied by appropriate
words of welcome.
The choir rendered with feeline1
some of the old songs and others of
later origin, and Mrs. J. Rarron
Steele sang "The Last Rose of Sum-!
mer."
Chairman Davis at this point in j
the proceedings delivered the gavel j
to Commander Teague, whose words
of welcome were followed by the in-!
I troduction of Lieut. Col. J. Fuller |
Lyon, who delivered the response;
to addresses of welcome on behalf i
of the veterans. Col. Lyon reviewed j
pome of the history of the war and '
interspersed his remarks with the re-,
latlon of stories and jokes which i
were heartily enjoyed by the veterans*
and visitors.
Tribute From Walker
Gen. C. Irvine Walker, honorary
commander In chief of the United
Confederate Veterans, was presented
and spoke at some length in regard
to the causes of the conflict between
the sections. His tributes to the
valor of the leaders and the soldiers
of the Confederacy, the women of thej
Confederacy and the faithful slaves'
of the south were received with ap-l
plause.
Gen. Teague presented William F
Stevenson of Cheraw as the orator
for the annual reunion. Mr. Stevenson
announced that he was a native1
of the Southern Confederacy, having
been born under the flag bearing thej
St Andrews cross, and as he had*
never been naturalized, he said h> -1
supposed he was stiil a citizen of thej
Confederate states
Mr. S'evensoo pc'd his object was'
