LABOR-CAPITAL CONFERENCE j
SET FOR OCTOBER 6
_______ I
Warrington, Sept. 5.?A letter
signed by President Wilson calling
upon business, labor and farmers to
send representatives to the "round
table" industrial conference was
made public at the White House to-,
day.
I
The date for the conference is set
for October 6 instead of the fifth, as
announced yesterday, and there will:
be forty-five delegates.
Fifteen of the delegates will be |
nemed by the president to represent
the general public.
T%e United chamber of commerce
and national industrial conference!
board were asked to name five each,j
the American Federation of Labor!
seventeen, farm organizations three i
and investment brokers two.
He president outlined the purpose
of the conference as "bringing
capital and labor into close co
i operation, to canvass every relevant
feature of the present industrial situation
for the purpose of enabling
us to work out, if possible, in a genuine
spirit of co-operation a practicable
method of association based
upon a real community of interest
which will redound to the welfare of
all our people.
Emphasizing the waste resulting
from the war, the president declared
that the need of the round-table
conference is shown by "the continued
interruption of many of our,
important industrial enterprises by
strikes and lockouts."
Hiose to whom the letter was sent
I were : President Gompers, American
Federation of Labor; William G.
Baker, Jr., Baltimore, president of
the Investment Bankers' association;
J. N.-'; Tittemoore, of Omro, Wis.,
president of the American Society of t
Equity; Oliver Wilson, Peoria, 111.,1
president' of the national grange; (V
S. Barrett, Union City, Ga., president
of the National Farmers' union;
Homer L. Ferguson, of Newport
News, president of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States of
America.

selves with the correct methods of
grading grain under Federal standards
for wheat, shelled corn and
oats, Federal Grain Supervisor, K.
B. Seeds will conduct grain grading
demonstrations in connection with
the Combined Agricultural Exhibits
of the United States Department of
Agriculture at the State Fair. At
i this demonstration a fully equipped i
grain inspection office will be ar-j
ranged with exactly the same equip-j
1 ment and appliances that are used !
by the licensed grain inspectors in
the large markets and offices of
Federal grain Supervision. Samples '
of wheat, shelled com and oats willj
be handled the same way as in ac-;
tual inspection to show how the j
grades are determined. A more lim- j
ited and less expensive set of equip-j1
ment which has been suggested by [
the U. S. Department of Agriculture, j
as convenient to apply Federal i'
grades at country points, will also
be shown.
In order to make the demonstra-'
tion thoroughly practical, farmers j
are invited to bring sampjes of their j
grain to the demonstration booth in,
order that factors that determine!
the grades may be indicated on their!
own grain.
Each day formal demonstrations^
will be made in the "open school,"]
exactly as vould be in the office of [ 1
any inspection department in the,1
3crge markets. Besides the ^rrain
grading equipment, type trays showing
classes, grades and varieties of ;
grain, publications of the U. S. De- J
partment of Agricu tu :e relating to j
grain and grain grading will be dis-'
tributed, and photographs will be on [
display showing various phases of
Federal Grain Supervision Work.
The importance of these demon-,
strations, says P. L. Harkey, Agent
in Marketing, has been emphasized |1
because the U. S. Grain Corporation
is requiring the proper application j |
of the Federal grades by country j'
buyers in order to properly reflect
th guaranteed price schedule to the j '
local points. Properly applied grades'
insure a premium grade for pre-j1
mium quality wheat. One object of 1
the demonstration is to enable local j
wheat buyers to be fully informed : i
*
as to the grade requirements.

South Carolina.
Carolina should be put under cover f"
during the late fall, winter, and
early spring months, says G. H. Collings,
of the Agronomy Division.
This can be done only by planting
during the fall some crop that w;il
remain green throuout the wintei.
Cover crops not only prevent the excess
washing that is so prevalent,
~i""? 1??1? All* Piarlmntit. I
puruwuiaujr oiuvug WW* A
soils, but they also prevent the
leaching out and the ultimate loss
of large quantities of plant food
elements that become available during
our mild winters. On the aver- ,
age South Carolina farm where winter
cover crops are no1- grown, as
lA'ich plant food ?? lost annually
thru washing and leaching as is removed
from the soil by all the crops
grown.
Cover crops may be pastured, harvested
for feed, or turned under as
a green manuring crop. If no other
arrangement has been made whereby
the organic matter of the soil is
to be maintained, then these cropa
should, by all means, be turned un- '
der.
Leguminous crops are preferable
to non-legumes, for legumes increase
the nitrogen in the soil as well as
the organic matter when turned unJ
aer.
The best winter cover crops for
South Carolina are vetch, rye, crimson
clover, and bur clover. The
small grains may be used very satisfactorily
if desired. Vetch and .
rye rarely fail to produce good results.
One of the best and quickest ways
to improve the physical condition as
wel las the fertility of worn-out soils
is to inaugurate the following rotation.
First Year?Cotton, followed by
rye, vetch, crimson clover, or bur
clover.
Second Year?Plan under the cov-,
er crop and plant corn and cowpeas. J
Follow corn and cowpeas by oats.
Third Year?Oats, followed byj
owpeas, followed by vetch and rye.
Fourth Year?Plow under vetch
and rye and continue as directed for
fche first year.
GARDEN NOTES I
FOR SEPTEMBER I
Clemson College, September 12.? _
Are you going to allow the garden ^
plot to go unprodutive during the ^
winter months? This winter when i H
the proposition of "getting some- JB
thing for dinner" presents itself, let H
the garden solve the problem. H
Kale, mustard, rape and spinach'I
sown during this month will pro- {H
duce an abundant supply of greenq H
throughout the winter. R
Sow Big Boston Lettuce now to1 Hj
furnish a salad during the fall: E
months. With the slight protection jB
of a cold-frame, later sowings may I
be made so as to furnish this vege- |
table for winter use.
Radish seed of the Long White j
or Black Spanish varieties should be
sown the latter part of September.
Keep the young celery plants
growing, by thorough and constant
cultivation. They will be ready for
the blanching process'by the latter
part of the month. For information
concerning the different methods of
blanching that may be employed,
write the Extension Service at Clemson
College. i
Continue to wage war on the IH
green cabbage worm by dusting or >9
spraying with aresnate of lead. Use ?
1 lb. of arsenate of lead powder |H
with 2 lbs. of air slacked lime for B
dusting and apply in the morning B
when dew is still on plants. For B
spraying use one-balf pound of ar- B
senate of lead to 12 gallons of wa- B
ter. Discontinue the application of B
this spray after the heads begin to B
form. W
