CONFEDERATE VETERANS TO MEET IN GREENWOOD Lowndesville, S. C., July 15, 1919. Editor Press and Banner: It is only a short time till the Confederate Veterans will meet in he lovely city of Greenwood, where he annual state remtion will be heM has year The veterans have many riends in Greenwood, and I feel atisfied that there is no city in the tate where the Confederate Veterns would be given a better time han they will have in the city of Ireenwood. More than sixty years ago when hp storm clouds of war burst upon hits land, inaugurating the most stupendous conflict in arms the world >ad then ever seen, the South sent rth in many respects the most reaarkable body of men ever gathered q camps or organized into armies, ftese men were of the best blood of ur Southland and represented the -est Anglo-Saxon blood in the rorld. They were descendants of he leaders of the Revolution whose aatchless loyalty and heroism won ur national independence, and of ur great jurists headed by John ilarshall, who gave interpretation nd effective operation to the great rrmciples of the American Constiution, guaranteeing permanency of overnment. These men of the South went forth iot actuated by greed for spoils, not o enjoy revenge and not to mainaan a system of slavery, which was anded down from the English govrnment through their fathers, but o maintain the most vital principle f free government under the Feder.1 Constitution as founded by their athers and as interpreted by John Marshall. And though we lo^t in iur contention so vital is this priniple that since the close of the war he Supreme Court of the land has ully vindicated our position and aainfoinaj +-ua rv^ 4ivi>a i4-/\ i iiaiuvaincu biic 115111* vi ciit^ owit ?v | egulate its own internal affairs as| hey relate to local, social and politial conditions.

HOW TO HALVE PASSENGER FARES In this country are sections where the business man travels long distances, 600 miles or more, by motoi ??? <? Tn-nffli-An/io +n rai.lrnd/1' train. because it is cheaper, better and pleasanter. When the steam propelled locomomotive was invented, the construction of roads for it was necessary. The engine that is propelled by thf internal combustion of gas requires s specially constructed road for economical operation but, because it can run (at high cost) on a bad road, the people of some of the States anc sections neglect to provide good roads, preferring to pay higher rates for travel than to be Hgihtly taxed. Passenger fares on steam railroads are being fixed by the order of government at three cents a mik throughout the country, and the people of South Carolina would rise in rebellion were an exception to be made as to their territory and a sis cents fare required of them. These same people of South Carolina pay double the rate a mile tc ride in motor ears that the Californians pay?and "the worst of it u they like it." Moreover, by refusing to improve the roads these people of South Carolina keep the motor car as a luxurj for the well-to-do and rich and prevent its use by thousands and tens oi thousands of poorer men. Even a Ford is expensive on a rough road. ? One hears daily and loud remonstrance against seven cents street cai fares but, on a paved road, a motoi car could carry passengers from Columbia to Newberry at four cents a mile or less. W'hv not make South Carolina safe for democracy and against seven cents fares by building highways foi the car that belongs to no corporation and whose corporation is immune from control by a union? Why not have roads under governmental control over which the car is run under YOUR control??The State WAR COUNCIL IN ATLANTA. Columbia, July 15.?J. Skottowe Wannamaker, president of the American Cotton Association, with headquarters here, tonight issued a call for a meeting of the board of diectors of the association an Atlanta, July 23 and 24. At that time the American Cotton Association presi dent says a ngxw win u? vpenevi u^> on the proposed opposition corporation, which is to be formed in New Orleans in October and known as the World Cotton Association. AS TO LIMING SOIL. Clcmson College, July 16.?Prof. W. F. Pate, of North Carolina, has the following to say on lime in North Carolina, and since there is considerable similarity between the soils of the two Carolinas, what he has to say should be of interest to South Carolina farmers. "In North Caroiina we have four or five extremely distinct areas of soil, and what applies to one may not apply to the other. In the peat soil, we have found that lime ia beneficial for corn, in which case we have found that frequent and light applications are best. Two tons per acre will give the best yield, and we have found that five tons will not give any better results than two tons; three tons will not give any more than two tons, and one ton will not give as good results as two. A question with us has been whether to apply one ton every year, in case where only one ton is used, or two tons every other year. We are of the opinion that on ton each year would probably be best if same does not cost more in putting on. Burnt lime is not so good as limestone, although the haulage item would not permit limestone preference. In our Coastal Plains where we have rotation of n-n A nflonnfe lime /loM cvnij CVUtUU aim ycanuwj v.vv?not pay. Lime used in connection with fertilizer gives an increase, but not enough to pay for the cost of lime. When lime is used alone it will pay for itself. In the peanut section of the state, gypsum is used at the blooming period, and no great difference is seen between this and the use of limestone before planting and at time of blooming. Where this is done, the leaves take up the lkne and sulphur from the gypsum, increasing the deep green color in three or four days. In our cultivation of peanuts we can see very ltitle difference ,if any, in the use of burnt lime, limestone and gypsum. Lime will pay when used An /?rini a/vn ftlovfir. . ' J." . . Since 1903 cotton and corn have been the principal crops, but not enough to pay for the time; the same thing is true with lime when ! used alone. When this soil is ' limed, stable manure, applied and ' soy beans grown, splendid effect! , results from lime. Where lime does I not pay, the rotation is at fault.
