WALHALLA, S. C.:
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 28,
PROTECT YOUR COI TON,
The Courier realizes fully the fact
thal often farmers hool al any advice
emanating from a printing o Alee ns
to methods of growing or earing for
?roes. Yet there are, we think,
things pertaining io farming that at
times aro not only deserving of com
ment hy the newspapers, but also de
serving of serious consideration by
the farmers.
Tor instance; Recently wc have
noted numbers of bales of cotton
standing around the farm houses un
protected from Hie weather, exposed
io the sun and rain, tin- staple dete
riorating dnj by day. \'.'hv will this
expensive practice continue? ls it
loo expensive to protect your cotton'.'
Why not, when your grain is threshed
each year, sack it up and pile the
sacks, unprotected, out In the var.'. .'
True, Hie deterioration in Ibis ease
would amount to total loss, but the
principle is the same. I! cotton i>
wort li growing it is also worth pro
tect in?* alter it bas boen grown,
picked, ginned and baled. Bul the
farmer does not always seo, and
douhtles: never ivalixes, the "ulti
inate re elis" of the folly of dumping
his cotton bales out in the weather.
We commend tho following "com
plaint" as worthy of careful reading
and consideration, lt is the com
plaint of a ma n I act ii t er to his
"buyer." and appeared in thc Char
leston News and Courier of Saturday:
"We are just in receipt of the first
2? bales of cotton, and lind it is in a I
very had condition. Il .seems it has
been I, fl out in the rain Btaildlug on j
one end, and the end on which it
stood is nearly rotten. Also the top
end. When we went to tho car it
looked like a Held ol new cotton, as
the . ! had sprouted, and was grow- .
ing luxuriantly all over tho top of
the bales. We OIK bise you a few
sprouts showing you the condition of !
the cotton. Any man who would
treat cotton in this way does not de
serve the name of a farmer, or plant - ,
er, and does not deserve any returns ;
whatever for bis labor. We believe
son.n of the bales have from 2? to 7">
pounds of water in t lient. Such as
this is a shame. We are sending you j
by parcel post some of the cotton
taken off ol' the ends. The staple
seems to lie all right, mid we feel :
that il would be satisfactory if it was |
liol rotten. We will not uso it, hut
put it in our warehouse to dry out.
We lii-'imc a large portion of it will ?
rot before it doe.. Irv. hors of it
is tl I rea (Iv reten, as sou will see
from Hie samples, and we cannot uso
i. in this condition. We have not {
seen i orton shipped in such a condi
tion h oie. I.et us hear from you in
re.-.i rd : o t his."
Ot" course, all this is absolutely
none of our business. We neither'
grow < ot ion nor manufacture it after
it is grown. Bul it does seem that I
the Sollt ?i's chlo; produi t should lie
given helier care aller it is grown.
Too expensive io shelter if? The
truth of the matter is timi Its neglect i
is one of the great drains on the
South s resources. Colton is neglect
ed by ".ll per cou I ol' the '.'.rowers even |
?ri the seed ls put into th
: rou nd. The neglect begins with tho
preparation of t he soil, and it ends I
when the llnished hales are dumped I
ont into the yards, unprotected, and
forced lo take whatsoever the ele
ments have In store for them.

Appeal tot- More Mian Million Heij>
h-.Hs Women luid Children.
To i ho People of South Carolina:
In asking your paper to prosont to
you (his appeal, in the name of hu
maiiity, from the American Red
Cross, I shall bc brief and not over
tax youi- pat lenee.
There is suffering and distress pre
vailing in Ku rope to-day, the magni
tude and depths of which never en
tered the mind of man. The vic
tims now, from conservative Investi
gation, have reached tho appalling
number of one million fatherless
children, and one hundred thousand
w idows. Think of it in the fear of
Cod-these, an independen! citizen
ship, having had all the comforts and
conveniences of life, living in happy
homes and in charity with all the
world. Yet a war tor which no one
can give a reasonable cause caine
upon thom like a thunderbolt from
a (dear shy, involving two-thirds of
the nations ol' l lie eart h.
Those prosperous people living in
th" section of the war zone that has
become the theatre ol' the most
bloody and merciless war that has
ever blackened the story of civiliza
tion, have met with reverses and bar
barities that reach Satanic cruelty.
Their crops have been destroyed,
their houses ruined anti burned
their ATI, gone their ALL gone.
This is no overdrawn picture, al
though it is almost beyond our im
agination. Shelterless, clotheless,
provision less, in dismay, hopeless,
not knowing where to turn, with no
eye to pity, and no arni lo save!
My friends and fellow citizens,
think ol' the situation and lake it in
il you ?an. We plead and pray thal
your hearts may be tom lied and your
pocket-books opened.
Don't treat this petition with in
diff?rence. lt conies to each anil .
every one of you as a message from
above "ile that hath this world's
goods a'd sooth his brother in need
and ?Im 11 et li up Iiis bowels of com
passion from bim. how d wei let h the

Si ti I your contributions to the un

and handled.

French Touch Off Mine Under Ger
mans-Fighting is Severe.
From tlie Battle Front, via Paris,
Gd. 20.-The German Invaders are
meeting a vigorous resistance i" ef
forts to shorten , heir lines and rest
their right wing further southward
upon the English Channel. Much
fighting ls being done In tho obscur
ity of fogs.
Kreuch marines are giving a unod
account of themselves. German
t roo ps tried a surprise a Hack on the
marines Sunday, but the French force
held the Bold works against superior
numbers, The light lasted all day.
A thick fog covered the entire re
gion Monday and tho marines, accus
tomed to such weather conditions,
crept close iii? to tho (?eiinan
t ronches.
"No shooting!" was the euler.
"Use the bayonet!"
Tho marines got within thirty feel
of the trenches heidie they were
seen. Their coming .vas heralded
too late for the defenders, who were
bayoneted in the trenches and be
yond the trenches as they ran. Four
hundred German prisoners were
taken.
An Important Place.
One of the places where the
French had been most harassed is
near the elbow of the western line.
Thc important position there had
been taken and retaken frequently
dining the last three weeks, livery
time the Germans had been obliged
to abandon the position they return
ed in force and pushed back the
French by weight of numbers.
The French took the position for
the twelfth time and held it fol ten
hours. Then came a shock ul the
human battering rani and the Kreuch
gradually gave way.
Blown Up by Mine.
The Germans began fortifying the
place, hut while they wer? engaged in
this task the earth heaved and tere
was a deafening explosion. Thc ten
hours the French held the point had
been sufficient to mine every rod of
the .mound. lt is estimated thal
three (o rman battalions were anni
hilated. The strength of the German
positions north of Roye, which facili
tated their movements toward lillie,
is explained by the fad that they
were occupying an untmished canal,
extending as far as Beisel. The Ger
mans lound in the (hep. broa.I cul
magnificent entrenchments.
Olli eera of the allies say the., have
noted thal about 40 per cent of the
shells from German guns explode.
They say also thal tho prodigality of
their tire apparently lias depleted the
German supply of ammunition, also
the intensity of the lire latch has
diminished their supply of shells.

Well Known Rancher ls Stricken
With Pneumonia,
T1K> following item, clipped from
the Wiggins (Colo.) Courier of Octo
ber Tili will be roud with regret by
many citizens of Oconee, not a few of
whom knew the deceased. James L.
Moore, a son of the deceased, is well
known throughout this county, hav
ing spent considerable time in this
sec t ion during the years recently
past. This branch of the Moore
family is widely connected In Oconee.
We uno;' from the Colorado paper:
"li. K. Moore, aged .">". pioneer and
cattle man of Morgan c< uuty, died at
his home near Hoyt, Colo., Sunday,
October Uh. He was buried at Port
Morgan. Til?? funeral services were
conducted by the B. P. O. E.
"Mr. Moore wa saman of generous
impulses and never forgot the hospit
able ways of the pioneer. The stran
ger, even though a beggar, never
failed to find food and shelter if he
BOUghl il at b's hands, and he was at
home by the bedside of the sick and
delighted in all kinds of neighborly
offices. He had borne adversity
bravely and enjoyed prosperity quiet
ly. He bad filled the various rela
tions ol' life, as son, husband, father,
brother, friend, and filled them well.
Who can do more?
"Besides a devoted wife he leaves
three sons, .lames. Lou and Ivodger
Moore, and six daughters, Mrs. Mary
Sherman, Mrs. Anna Childers, Eva
Moore, Mrs. Lillie Sanford. Minnie
Moore and Agnes Moore. We can
only remind these mourners that be
ls not dead; he is only asleep rest
ing after a long and well spent life
here; he could not, and would not If
be could, return to us: we can. il we
will, go to him. Behind thc storm
clouds always lurks the rainbow, and
when the storm is past it sweeps
upon the Howers of the land and the
pearls of the goa. Darkness precedes
the dawning, and out of the blackness
of night comes the sunshine and joy
of tho day. And so from the beauty
of his life take an inspiration and go
forth to live as he lived, so that when
the summons comes you may say, as
he dill. 'All is well.'
?Could all live tho just and up
right life that Mr. Moore lived, and
die in his trusting faith, death could
no longer be called the "King of Ter
rors," for he inspired no terror there.
The dying man and sorrowing family
looked forward with the sante eye of
faith to the brighter future where
this temporary separation would end
in eternal reunion."
