Farmers' Union Bureau of Information -Conducted by the South Carolina Farmers' Educa tional and Co-Operation Union. SWCommunications intended for this epartment should be addressed to J. C. Stribling, Pendleton, S. C. State Meeting of The South Carolina Farmeis' Union At their mee'rv oii the 24th of Oc tober at Columbia The South Caro lina Farmers' Union was represented by about 100 delegates, represnting ten thousand members from 15 coun ties. FIrom1 reprost from all over the State it was generally conceded that the farmers in South Carolina never were iore determined or iore ready lo or-anize than now. The harvest ime for fihe Farmers' Union is now ready aid organizers can now (1o a thriving business for the Union and a good profitable business for the or ganizer workers. Tilhe following reports from the committee was authorized published by our Farmers Union Bureau: Report of Committee of Cotton Seed. Your committee on cotton Seed and its ortidtes beg leave to submit the foIllwIv : We notiee that the market quotes cotton seed oil as being worth from 28 1-2 to 30 cents per gallon, meat $25 per ton, hulls $5 to $6 per ton, while seed are selling at $13 per ton. One year ago oil was selling at 20 to 22 cents per gallon, meal $23 per ton, hl 1 5 to $ per ton. Theie seems to be a niced of a mini mum price on seed since the oil mills are hying the seed .so far below their value. Therefore, be it Resolved. That we advise all Union members to hold their seed for not less than $20 per ton, and then make exchange of their seed for mcal to be used in mixing their fertilizers. J. P. Glenn, J. F. Hendricks, .1. B. Dohut hit. Commii tee. Report ol The Good of The Order. We c:1. iatulate the 'State and Na tiona Fomrs' Union upon its grand extensions of tle organizaton during t>e last year.

Last year, at the request of Ander-. son County Farmers' Union, our com mittee on The Good of The Order con ducted a co-operative farm expert ment with the South Carolina Exper iment Station to determine the money value of ground cotton seed as a manure under cotton and corn which showed that cotton seed under corn on thin land was worth net about 98 cents and $1.24 under cotton Per hun. dred. - This year our Bureau has fourteen comparative field tests to determine the merits of the Aldrich system of two rows of cotton and two rows of corn. We also have several acres in com parative test as to the merits of the Williamson stunting system of corn culture and side application of ferti lizers. We also have several large plants in oats to determinie the difference in deep plowing, disk harrowing and no plowing of pea stubble before drill ing in oatA. The plats are measured and pro ducts are weighed by experts from the South Carolina Experiment Sta tion, and all the work is being done by coinion farm labor on the 'arm. Respectfully submitted, J.

Northern Woman Assaulted by Isaac .Knight in Aiken County, Acting onAdvice of Friends, Leaves the Town and Returns New York. Aiken, October 29.-Mrs. E. S. Chapin has been waited upon by two I prominent Aiken gentlemen and ad vised to leave the city. Mrs. Chapin is the person upon whom the nere, 9 Isaac Knight, committed crimnal as sault, and for whom she signed a petition for a commutation of sen tence to life mprisonment. ';'ome time ago Mrs. Chapin moved into the city and has been stopping at I Mrs. McCullough's, next to the post oflice. She had announced her inten tim of leaving tIhe city some time in tIhe near future, but, after conversing wit h the gentlemen who called upon her, she took their advice and left here for New York at once. The gen- 1 tlemen who called upon Mrs. Chapin wvere friends of hers and were re rjuestedl to do so by a number of gen tlemen, who, after hearing that she ~ had petitioned the Governor to save the life of heri assailant, thought she hmad outlived her usefulness in the community, and that it would be bestt for her and for the community that she should leave. The action of the gentlemen who called upon her was prompted by the act ion of Mrs. Chapin in petitioning Governor Hleywarid to commnut e the sentence of the negro who assaulted her more than anything else. Early to bed and early to rise makes men healthy, good cooks, sweepers and almost any other old thing about the house in this day of scarce labor. ' Coal! Coal!!
