(Charleston News mid Courier)
Kindly allow space tor publica
tion of tins article, in which is sot.
fort li a desire to launch a conserva
tivo movement for the future pros
perity Of tho South. The lin i iros !
used are illustrative, to demonstrate
the general proposition, and are not. I
given to invite controversy, although
they ari' near enough to accuracy,
win n a general average is taken, to
he passed as correct.
The cotton crop has not proved a
paying business for the South, and
has been a losing game to a majori).v
of the cotton planters. li is not be
cause, generally, the planter has sold
bis conon before the price goes np;
nor will large- crops at low prices or
small crops at high prices, or In
creased yields with increased amount '
of fertilizer, remedy t lu- ev il ; hm ;
the simple application of a simple I
business principle. I believe- that ;
statistics will show that, taking a
leil-year average', for the whole cot
ton heit, ii has required three actes
of land to produce- mic 500-pound
bal?' of cotton. The same ten-year
average will probably show that cot
ton brought 1 > cents the pound or
$50 the hale. Kvcil it" the' cotton
planter gol $50 for eaeh 500-pound
bal<>. taken as a whole the planter
lost money, probably in every State,
except those few where. I am told no
commercial fertilizers are used. My (
the- appended figures you will see
that it costs around $20 to produce- j
and place upon the- market one' 500-i
pound bab' of cotton, il' made upon
eme> acre' of land, under normal con- j
ditiotis; and about .*:!!. w hen made j
upon two acres and about $52 when
made Upon three acres. ('ouse--!
quen tl y any in?dit derived could only
have come from the sale of the seed.
Tb?? one-bale-an-acre movement is
designed to make' the cotton crop a i
paying business for the cotton plan
ter, and then' is no reason why it
should interfere with diversified
farming, intensified farming or any |
other movement for the betterment j
Of the' farmer. Practically every
farmer In the cotton bell bas some
land that will, under normal condi
tions, produce one 500-<pound bale of
cotton on a selected acre. Some
may have on?', three, ten or fifty and
NO on according to tin- number of
acre's e?f farming land he- owns or
routs. Were it possible this year to
get each farmer lo select such land, !
and plant it. and no other land in
cotton, and weather and other condi
tions should be- normal, the probable
crop of ten million bab's could be
produccel upon ten million acta's, and ;
'he- other probable seventeen million j
acre's which are going to be sacri
ficed in producing the- possible len
million haleys could he- planted in
i
forage or other crops. il assume'
that the reduction in cotton acre-age1
I
this ye-ar will Pe not loss than L'.'i j
per cent In I ?I I I there were' some- I
thirty-six million acres planted in
cotton, and this year with lack of
money, supplies timi fertilizer. I
judge t he-re will ti o t be' more than
twenty-seven million acres planted in
cotton, ami with a probable cut of
more than 50 per cent in fertilizer
used, 1 figure that under tho most
favorable weather conditions ten
millions ot' bales will he the- outside
mark because then- will lu* no dis
cretion used in selecting land upon
which tei plant cot ton. i
I want the- press of the' South; the
various agricultural societies; the
agricultural departments of the? cot
ton States.; the agricultural col- |
b-ges; the farm demonstration
agents and. in fact, everj one who'
is interested ia the prosperity of ? he
South, to assist in pushing the move
ment forward. Simply show the
cotton planter that hy selecting the
land, which he already knows will

The European
At Dardanelles Again.
London. April 21.-A land and sea
attack on the Dardanelles on a lar
ger scale than at any time since the
allies began their effort to win Con
stantinople apparently is Imminent.
Berlin reports that 20,000 British
and Kreuch troops have been binded
Oil I he north shore of tho Gulf ol'
Sa ros, European Turkey, indicating
that land operations are actually na
iler way. Tins force presumably
will bc employed tor an attack from
the rear of the Turkish fort ideations
along ibo European side of the
straits, at the same time that a bom
bardment from the sea is undertaken
by the allied fleet. Additional Brit
ish troops are arriving daily from
Egypt on transports at the island ul
Lemnos, west of the entrance to the
Dardanelles.
No heavy lighting bas taken place
since the attempt io force ?he snails
a month ago. in which two British
and one Kreuch battleships were
lost. An official statement* from Con
stantinople says torpedo boats at
tempted to penetrate the straits Mon
day night, and yesterday there was
an engagement between warships
and Turkish fortifications, presuma
bly in connection with the landing of
t roops.
Austrians Hold Uzsok Pass.
Vienna. April lil. -The war ellice
to-day issued the following:
The enemy has discontinued his
attacks against the most Important
sectors in front of our positions
which protect Ondawa, Laborcza and
the Ung Valley.
"In the wooded mountains be
tween Laborcza and the Ung Valley
the enemy again attempted, despite
heavy losses, to break through by ad
vancing against our extreme wings.
This caused severe fighting in the
UpperCzircka Valley near Nagypo
latiy. which histed for several nights.
The Russians suffered severe losses
in killed or wounded. We captured
over 3,000 un w ounded prisoners.
"The Uzsok Pass is still In our
possession."
Aerial Battle Along the Rhine,
(leneva, April 21.-The Rhine,
from Basel to .Mue ".nilsen, was the
scene of an aerial engagement yes
terday afternoon. The action was
witnessed by hundreds of people
gathered at points of vantage.
Two British and two French aero
planes moved out from French terri
tory to attack a numerically stronger
group of (?crinan machines. The
allied craft were subjected to a bom
bardment from Fort Istoui. and re
tired, bul later returned with rein
forcements. Outnumbering the Ger
mans, they drove them away.
Later, at 0.30 o'clock, two Zeppe
lins, accompanied by several aero
planes, appeared in the vicinity of
liuningen, on the left bank of the
Rhine, two miles from Basel. Their
coming was followed by firing for
two hours.
British Gain Important.
Uazehrough, France, April J t.
Emphasis is given to the importance
of the success gained by British
troops near Ypres by details received
here regarding the operation. The
captured position possesses consid
erable strategic importance, and had
been defended hy the Germans with
desperate gallantry for weeks.
A number ol' German prisoners
who passed through here alter thc
engagement expressed little regret ?it
having to leave the field, foi they
said they bad been in the trenches
all winter.
Russian Forces Leave Ta mow.
Berlin, April 21.-Various dis
patches published her?: to-day an
nounce the complete evac?a;ion bj
the Russians of their positions ai
Tarnow, Galicia, 135 miles west ol
Lemberg. Evacuation was precede!
hy a heavy Austrian bombardment.
I Costly Assaults hy Germans.
London. April '1 '1. Hill No. CO
dominating an area southeast o
Ypres, still is the storm center of thc
western front, with the British cling
illg tenaciously to the ground taket
by assault last Saturday. Cunte
attack- after counter attack has heel
repulsed, bat the end ol' the lived;
and costly fighting is not yet in sight
The British losses have not heel
announced, bul they are estimated a
well aver 2,000, Tho Hermans ar?
believed to have lost mote than 4,
ooo.
The French drive toward St. Mi
biol is about the only other signlfi
cant move In the west.
The British press concedes tba
the taking of Hill No. 00 is I argel;
a local matter, but it considers tb
engagement an important step for
ward and a great relief to tho towi
of Ypres, so long under bombard
ment. Thc? Germans, in possessio!
of this bill, were not only .above tb
town, but they threatened Hie Bril
I lah lines in the vicinity ol SI. Kio
The taking of the bill also gives a
advantageous position foi- furtherei

Petrograd, April 22. Thrown
hack from tho principal Carpathian
summits to Die plains of Hungary,
the Austrians have attempted unsuc
cessfully to relieve tin' weakness of
their center in the Me/.olaboroz re

thc Russian left, and the oilier about
Gorlice, directed against the Russian
right.
Official announcement here says
the. Russian forces invited the enemy
to advance by non-resistance, and
did not Ure a shot until the range
was very ?dose. The Russians then
suddenly chained with tho bayonet,
with the result that the Austrians
were completely routed, the Rus
sians taking an unusually large num

TEN WEEKS IN BED
EMINENT PHYSICIANS FAILED.
WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.
I wish to Inform you of the great
benclit 1 have derived from the use
of Swamp-Root. I bad been a suf
ferer for more than twenty years
from kidney and liver trouble and
was almost constantly treated by the
most eminent physicians who could
only give nie temporary relief. 1
had been in bed ten weeks when 1
began the use of Swamp Root. In
side of twenty-four hours I could see
that I had been greatly benefited. I
continued to use Swamp-Root until
I had used several bottles, when 1
really felt that my old trouble was
completely (aired and I am positive
that any person suffering with kid
ney or liver trouble can be cured by
thc use of this preparation.
I am now in tho best of health -
better than 1 have been for ten sears
or more. I do not know 'bow to ex
press myself as strongly as 1 desire,
in favor of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, as 1 am sure that it saved my
life and that my good health is duo
entirely to this great remedy. I
heartily roi om mend it to every suf
ferer, and am confident they can bo
benefited as I have been. It i.-; a
pleasure for me, gentlemen, to hand
you this recommendation.
