FARMERS' UNION RESOLUTIONS.
What th* County Presidents Decided
Upon In Columbia.
Following Is the full text of the resolutions
passed at the meeting of the
county presidents of the Farmers' Unions
of South Carolina during their deliberations
in that city on Friday:
"Whereas, we realize and appreciate
the great benefits derived from the efforts
and able work of Prof. J. M. Harper,
director experimental station,
Clemson college; Commissioner E. J.
Watson of the state department of
agriculture and Hon. A. F. Lever of
the house of representatives for their
good work in getting the tariff on imported
commercial fertilizers removed
from the Payne tariff bill which was
before thd house of representatives,
"Kesoivea, xnat we me mcmucis m
the State Farmers' Union of the state
of South Carolina extend to them our
thanks and appreciation of their good
work in our interest
"Resolved, further, That we send a
copy of these resolutions ta each of
k the above mentioned gentlemen.
"Whereas, we realized the great good
that has been wrought in the realm
of plant industry in South Carolina by
the introduction in the state of the farm
demonstration work by the United
States department of agriculture, and
"Whereas, one of the greatest needs
of the state at this time is a proper!
development of the live stock industry,
and
"Whereas, we believe such development
as is sought will be more speedily
obtained by the conduct of such
work on live stock lines as is being
conducted in the matter of plant life,
therefore be it
"Resolved, That the Farmers' Union
of South Carolina hereby indorses the
request of the state department of agriculture
of the secretary of agriculture
of the United States and of the United
States bureau of animal industry to
detail one or more held experts from
the bureau to be stationed in the state
for the purpose of advising, directing
and assisting those engaged in or
about to engage in live siock raiding,
particularly In the raising of beef cattle.
"Resolved, further, That the secretary
of agriculture of the United States
be specially requested to give this matter
his earliest and most careful atten?
tion."
"Whereas, the cotton producers of
the south are in need of specific information
from the viewpoint of the producer
of essential facts as to the length
of staple, gradings, etc., that are required
by the consuming manufacturers
of foreign nations, facts that would
be of material value in the development
of the cotton growing Industry of
the United States, an industry representing
millions of dollars in the annual
agricultural exports of the United
States, and
"Whereas, heretoiore an spwun ww
sions directed to securing information
abroad in relation to cotton have been
rather in the interest of tne manufacturers
than the producers, and
"Whereas, efforts are now being
made by the producers to better the
crude system of marketing cotton, and
"Whereas, the class of information
needed can only be secured by a man
from the cotton belt skilled in the
growing of cotton and thoroughly familiar
with all of the details of the
present local system of grading and
buying crude cotton, therefore be it
"Resolved, That the commissioner of
agriculture of South Carolina, accompanying
a committee fro.n this organization,
be requested to voice to the
president of the United States the request
of the State Farmers' Union of
South Carolina that this matter be
given prompt attention and that the
Federal government, through the department
of agriculture or the department
of commerce and labor, arrange
for n sneclal representative, selected
from the cotton belt territory, to be
sent to various foreign countries to
collect the data needed, and that his
reports be published and furnished to
the producers."
"Whereas, the summer school Idea,
designed to give instruction on both
practical and scientific lines to young
farmers at their homes, has proved of
such value in other agriculture producing
states, and
"Whereas, we understand the authorities
of Clemson college are preparing
to operate one or more such schools
in this state this summer, therefore be
it
"Resolved, That we heartily approve
the inauguration of this system in
South Carolina and trust that the initial
school will lead to a rapid extension
of the work."
"We, the state executive committee
and county presidents and delegates
in attendance upon consultation meeting
have examined the L. A. Greene
cotton grader, and seeing the workings
of the same demonstrated, we hereby
indorse this as an educator of the Far
mers' Union and feel that tnis invention
will revolutionize the selling and
grading of cotton, thereby saving to
the farmer the differences in all grades
of cotton as arranged by the New York
exchange, and recommend the Farmers'
Union to adopt the sale of cotton
by this standard grader."
? Anderson Daily Mail: The Orangeburg
Sun of Friday, April 30, prints
the following: "A story has been go
ing the rounds here for several days
that the trouble at C'lemson college
would result more seriously than many
thought. The point of the rumor is to
the eifect that the fertilizer tax, which
has been going to Clemson, has been
used for purposes not stated in the law;
i that this tax amounts to thousands of
dollars, and that an effort will be made
? bring suit against the trustees of
Olemson for the return of this money
u#o*a CimK o Quit an tho utorv
lu iiic ovaiv? tjuvu u ?uih| ?v ??*v
goes, would bring about bankruptcy tor
the college and result ultimately in the
sale of the college property to satisfy
judgment, which the state would secure
in the event the suit would be
successful. Then the king move would
be made?the state would buy in the
property and own it absolutely. This
would end the life trusteeships and do
away with much of the cause for trouble
at the institution. The fertilizer
tax is given to Clemson for investigations,
etc., and it is claimed that the
money has been used to erect college
buildings and pay the salaries of professors?uses
not intended by the law.
This story is given for what it is worth
and to show the real seriousness of the
Clemson trouble."

There Is A Reason j
During the first three months j
of 1909 more new business was writ- ,
ten by Mutual Benefit Agents In South
Carolina tnan during any similar period
of the fifteen years since this
grand old company has been doing
business In the state, and more than
twice as much as during January,
February and March of 1908, and ,
this in the face of the fact that it is
claimed that financial conditions are '
not so good as previous to October, j
1907, and also that more life com- }
panies are seeking business in the '
state than ever before. My personal :
business during the three months just j
ended was more tlian four times as
great as In 1008. There must be substantial
reasons for the increase, don't
you reckon? Well, there are. You *
will be able to fully understand and :
appreciate them if you will call and 1
let me tell you something of the com- ,
pany's record covering a period of 64 '
years and explain the policy contracts
