| DABBS ON SEED PRICE
Ex-President bf Farm en Unon Replies
to Present President. t
I have read the criticism of the
7-1 committee on cottonseed prices by my
rood friend Col. Clafly, president of
the Farmers' Union and think it is
due to Mr. Jennings and myself to
make a short reply. It is also due
to the producers of seed to give the
figures upon which our agreement was
made. But first I wish to say that
the commissioner of agriculture in
vlted the farmers to be present and
if they were too busy or too indifferent
to attend they should not find
fault with the seven of us who did
attend, but rather should be thankful
that we were interested enough to
attend. Our doing so advanced seed
$2 per ton. Further, we ju t as much
represented the farmers a? the New
Orleans convention will represent
them, for that convention is composed
of delegates nOt elected by the farmers
but named by the governor, commissioner
of agriculture, president of
American Cotton AssociatUn, president
of Farmers' llnion^and superintendent
of education/ And each one
pays his own way and is responsible
to himself alone. But, if they will
take the information Col. Claffy has
t and figure ou|f& higher prica for seed
and have the mills agree to It, we will
all be thankful.
hi wish to say if that convention
can secure am agreement with the
cotton mills to work cottcn for a
fair differential "Spread" they call it
in cottonseed parlance, between the
prlce'of the products and the raw material
it will have earned the everlasting
gratitude of the producers of
1 cotton and of the ultimate consumers
of cotton goods as well. 1 am'
sure our coafnlttea have cottonseed
and cottonseed products nrnoh nearer
than cotton and cloth jare. I regret
that Col. Claffy and another gentleman
who was loaded with Information
were not put on the oomioUtee In
place of Mr. Jennings and myself; or.
at least that they did not give to us
' the Information they had. I asked the
gentleman for an array of figures he
had to take with me into the commit- :
* tee meeting. He said, "No, I want
this to use from the floor when you
make your report." Does any one suppose
that Mr. Jennings and I were so
simple as to receive a price of $70
per ton when we coiiid have demonstrated
that $132.40 per ton; is the
vallie of seed based on- Col! Clafly's
figures when he writes about $2 oil?
We did not have these figures. . And
if that is anything like correct, the
AlHUUIUO. larmvco ttci c muu^wm
most as badly as we were- In fact
we were told that Alabama's prices
of $75 were based on July 29 mar- <
ket and that the day before only 970.
* was being paid vin Alabama and $10
less for wagon seed. The committee
based our 'fair price" on oil at ninerteen
cents?$56.42; meal at $69?$33.88;
hulls at $8?$2.14; linters al three
cents?$2.25; total $96.69, less 5 per
cent, for excessive moisture, $91.86. On
1 this we calculated/ mill profit at 5 per
cent, against flat $3 last year, $4.59;
working cost $15.50, freight $2, same
as last year. Price for seed $69.77,
but agreed price $7(1 taking twentythree
cents from the mill's $4.59, leaving
the mills $4.36.
If the market was manipulated to
bring about that result and .it may
Have been done, I wish Col. Claffy
would tell us what we can do about
it. Seed were showing 18 per cent
moisture and were rotting on the
hands of farmers, dealers, railroads
and mills. Against that condition we
have a harder problem than cotton
to deal with I only wish we could
come as near securing the value of
our cotton as we ar? of cottonseed.
But no farmer is bound by us to sell
his seed; if he c^n take care of his
sved and hold them bock until he
cdn force tfce prices named by Col.
Claflfy he will, under the agreement
made last Thursday, get $102.50 lor
seed.
Thanking you for space to get this
information before the farmers.
^ Yours respectfully,
E. W. Dabbs.
RESULT OF LATE WAR..
Still In Doubt Says William Mathar
' Lewis.
"The next two months will give the
answer as to whether America won a
victory in the war or suffered a colossal
defeat," said William Mather Lewis,
director of the savings division of the
treasury department, in a message addressed
to the six million members of
the War Saving* SoclMUes throughout
the United States today.
"The war coat many thousands at
priceless American lives and billions of
hard-earned dollars- This treasure was
spent in vain if the lessons taught by
the war are not put into practice in the
United States. America financed her
mighty war machine and fed the starving
Allies through the thrifty practices
wnicn our iormeny spena-inriri people.
suddenly developed. Thrift willt
win the victory in the trying period
of reconstruction.
"But thrift is not evident at this time,
when, as President Wilson says, 'we
are facing tasks more difficult, more
complex, less easily understood, tnan
those of war.' One of the greatest of
reconstruction tasks is to reduce the
cost of living. This menace will not
be conquered by boosting the wages of
labor. It will be handled by allowing
production to catch up with consumption
and this can only be done by careI
ful spending the elimination of wastfulness.
"The Federal Trade Commission has
begun an investigation of companies
promoting "wild cat" oil stocks. Such
concerns flourish only when there is
'easy money,' when the people through
extravagance develop the get-richquick
germ.
"The Savings Division of the treasu
ry department is receiving reports
from the held indicating that pawn
shops, stock promoting concerns and
a certain type of merchandizing houses
are reaping a rich harvest through the
fact that owners of Liberty Bonds are
willing to sacrifice these securities at
prices far below the market in order
to satisfy the desire for luxuries or to
secure stock on which they are promised
an impossibly high rate of interest
"If the people are not willing to prated
their personal prosperity and the
welfare of the government at this critical
time by practicing wise ei'onohiy
by holding on to their Libettjr Bonds
and War Savings Stamp's.' "Gy waging
an unceasing fight against any merchant
who seeks to overcharge them?
if, tin other words, the thrift lessons of
the war jtri forgotten, then we are a
defeated nation and not a victorious
one." ' ,

MACK CONCLUDES MEETING I
Personal History of Evangelist Has Good
at Wadesboro.
"Cyclone Mack," Evangelist Baxter .]
F. McLendon, of Bennettsville, S. C? i
left yesterday afternoon for Bennetts- t
ville, where he will spend ten days, <
prior to beginning a five weeks' cafn- i
paign in Kingston, says a Wadesboro,
N. C. dispatch Thursday to The Char- ,
lotte Observer. The big tent was ship- t
ped yesterday and several of his per- ,
sonal workers have gone on ahead to j
make preliminary arrangements at ,
Kingston. ,
It is impossible to estimate tl^egood
accomplished here by the campaign
conducted by the evangelist, who is .
rapidly becoming one of the foremost .
evangelists of the day; and it is not (
toe much to may that a man who can .
thrill tha thousands he has thrilled j
here for more than four weeks is already
one of the greatest evangelists
in the United States.
The late lamented Chapman, on '
hearing McLendon pray, asked who '
he was and later approached him, and 1
put his arm about him and said he was 1
destined to be the evangeliot of the *
age. From a gambler and a desperado* 1
to a great evangelist who can draw
10,000 peoplq to hear a single sermon 1
la a far cry/but that is "Cyclone Mack," <
who is a storm-center of energy, en- (
thusiasm and seal. 1
The prayer meeting was largely at- 1
tended last evening, and the spiritual
life of this section has received a new t
lone. ,
The offering to the evangelist was
more than $4,000, and incidental expense
was paid to the amount of
$1,500. In addition to this a purse of
more than $100 was given Mrs. Steidly,
a personal worker, and a purse was
also presented to Professor Carroll,
choir, leader. ,

GOVERNMENT CROP REPORT.
Condition Declined Four Per Cent During
Month Ending Aug. 25.
The government report Issued last
Wednesday by B. B. Hare, South Carolina
Field Agent of the United States
Department of Agriculture, shows that
there was a decline of 4 per cent, in
conditions of both cotton and corn from
July 25, to August 25. Cotton declined
from 71 to 67 per cent in South Carolina
and corn from 80 to 76 per cent
The deterioration in condition of both
Is attributed almost wholly to excessive
rains during the latter part of
July and the first two weeks of August.
The boM weevil, of course, is do-.
lng considerable damage to coiiun in ,
the extreme southern counties.
It appears that the western and central
counties suffered more severely
from the excessive rains than did the
eastern and northwestern counties, the
condition of "both cotton and corn being
much better in the Pee Dee and Piedmont
countries than in other sections
of the state.
The forecast of production of cotton
in South Carolina will approximate 1,160,000
bales. Of course, the final outturn
will be larger or smaller than
this amount as weather conditions
hereafter are better or worse than
average conditions. The abandoned
acreage of cotton since Jupe 25. according
to reports made by correspondents
and from personal observation of the
Field Agent, will not exceed 2 per cent.
The corn crop for the state will be
smaller than usual, the condition in
some localities being very good while
In others it is very, very poor. The
abandoned acreage in the state will be
at least 10 per cent, the most of which
is confined to late planting. The estimated
production for the entire United
States is 2.858,000,000 bushels, which
is approximately 275,000,000 bushels
more than the estimated production in
1918.
Cowpeas and peavine hay are the
best for years but the acreage is much
smaller than usual, the seed at planting
time being very scarce and un-.
usually high priced. Estimates show
that thare is a 5 Der cent increase in
the number of fattening hogs in the
state at this time over that of last
year.
X*" Leaving baseball, football and
boxing aside, there is no longer a great
disparity between woman's and man's
athletic prowess. But whether the
women should be permitted to compete
with the men in the golf, tennis,
shooting and other championships is
debatable ground. If the men oppose
it, one can hardly blame them, for it
must be years before victory over a
woman will be regarded as anything
but "Dead Sea Fruit," and defeat as
anything but a disgrace,
<*?" Probably the first woman in
America to hold an elective school office
was Emma Willard, the famous
educator, who in the early part of her
career was elected superintendent of I
schools in the town of Kensington, j

AMERICAN SPORTS ABROAD.
Europe Show* Appreciation of Athletes
From U. S.
"Of all the* nations which, In the war
period, had a real Introduction to
American sports and pastimes," writes
Edwin A. Goewfey, in Leslie's "none
showed more aptitude in appreciating
their finer point? and embracing them
on a wide scale than the people of
France, Italy and Poland. Baseball,
football, basketball, soccer and track
and field sports were received with

In and out of the armies, in the nations
mentioned, adopted the American
athletic methods and clamored for
an extension of the work For a?considerable
time past specially detailed
representatives of the 'Y'and men
from the American army have been
teaching American sports to specially
designated athletic representatives of
the various countries. ( These in turn
are to teach others of their own nationality
to- go out among the people
and spread tho knowledge they have
gained. The object is to make a better
people physically throughout
France, Italy, Poland, etc., with American
pastinies as the medium through
which this is to be accontplished.
"Already particularly in France and
Italy, a sufficient number of athletes
have been trained to take up the work
of 'instruction among the school children,
and the result obtained thus far
among these latter are both surprising
and gratifying. However, it was not
until after considerable dispute and
discussion that tho athletic leaders of
tjie various allied foreign countries
agreed to give the American instructors
full swing. That the French track

Col. Soo pointed out to his French colleagues
