Co-oporntlvo Marketing of Cotton. Tile long expected campaign on the co-operative marketing of cotton is expected lo begin in Coonee county on Friday and Saturday. Nov. 11th and 1 2th. with th rei big meetings as outlined above. This plan is to establish a system in this State to bugin operation with the crop of l!)22. Co-operative mar keting is not a new thing. It ha? been practiced in Denmark for 100 years and in California for 2 5 years. It is now spreading over the entire Untied .States, all classes of farmers rally ing to tho cause. Tho grain growers of the West aro organizing on a sim ilar plan this year, tho peanut grow ers of Virginia and North Carolina have complotod their organization recently; tho tobacco growers of Vir ginia and North Carolina aro practi cally organized, and the COTTON GROWERS of Oklahoma. Texas and Mississippi and Arizona have organ ized and aro DOING BUSINESS this year, handling at present an average of 2,?00 halos a day, which is three times as nindi cotton as tho largest .corporation in the United Stales han dles. North Carolina lias recently com pleted her campaign for 200.000 bales signed up. and will soon have KOO,OOO hales signed up. according to the Progressive Farmer South Carolina is going after |t|i. SiOO huies. Georgia ton.ooo. Arkan sas 100,000, with Florida, Alabama. Tennessee and practically .every Stale in the South going into tho campaign to .loin the others which have com pleted their campaigns. These States plan to federate imo a systematic or ganization for the selling of cotton < >n a husincss-llhe basis. This organization 1)0KS NOT in tend io do any prlco-flxing, bul IT DOES intend to gol for (ho farmor inembon Ibo REAL VALUE of their rj>roduct insofar as skilful salesman ship, proper grading and organiza tion can (?0 lt. ll seeks merely to ap ply (ht same horse sense rules of business to Ute MERCHANDISING rf colton (hal the manufacturers NOW APPLY to selling their own oro ,Inc's. Furniers will urgently need tho FULL VALUE of their cotton wi h. the boll WOPVll present, and this sen sible, businoss-tiko plan is the very best that luis ever been tried. This is not mero theory. Thc beau ly about lliis plan is that IT WORKS. lt luis boen truly called "THE BIG GEST Till Nfl IN THE SOUTH." It is the privilege and duly of every ?'armer and landowner to attend ono od these three meetings. Order Trees Soon. 'Tho time vwill soon bo out Nov. i 2th- when all orders for fruit trees Vb rough the .County Agent, co-opoia tlvely, will he totaled up and whole? nalo prices from loading nurseries .obtained. If you have not sont In your order, it should bo done with ?out delay. Oeoneo is not living up to her right? ns a great orchard county, and -After tho boll weevil gets in heavy dam ago ia no time to begin orcharls. The time to begin orchards ls NOW at the earliest possible moment. Por commercial orchards the fol lowing varieties are recommended in the order named: Apples .- Stayman Winesap, Deli cious, Rod Winesap. it is questionable whether or not commercial peach orchards should be set out in this county, for the risks aro far greater hore than in tho sand hill section of the State around Aiken and Columbia. Thousands of peach trees have been set out tn those sec tions during tho past season, and thousands more will be set out. Oconee has them on apples, for no county below Oconee can grow applos that can compare with her. Auction of Fine Jerseys. There will bo an auction sale ot a largo number of Ano registered Jer soys nt a salo on tho odgo of tho city of Spartan burg on Saturday, Nov. 6. Ilolfors, maturo cows and bulls will bo on sale, and a number of fino rog ister-of-morit animals aro offerod. Some progressive farmers of Oco nee intend attending this sale, and it ls hoped that moro will attend. We should keep good dairy cattlo tn this State, and now that tho boll .weevil ls threatening the chief money crop, tho monthly croom check Will look moro gobion In tho future.

School Lunches Tho Importance or tho mid-day meal for the growing child is oftun neglected, particularly during school time. It should not ho forgotten that, as a rule, tho lunch which tho child lukes to school Is tho big meal of tho day, and therefore should bo suffi cient, in quantity, wholesome and made up of the foods required by tho growing body. Growing children need good,whole some foods because new tissue is be ing made, they take a great deal of exercise, and the tax of study In creases their food requirement. They need simple foods, easily digested, such as milk and milk products, and meals, as beef, fish and chicken, and vegetables, fruits and cereals. To summarize the planning and preparation of the school lunch: lt should he planned so as to bo satisfy ing and nutritious, bul NDT HEAVY i heavy lunches causo sluggishness.) In packing the lunch tho container is most Important, lt .should he ono that is easily cleaned and properly ventilated. Caper napkins should, when possible, bo provided.
