ClOYer.
Again I appeal to the farmers who
bave clover to gather as much seed
as you can. A -bur ciover seed patch
on every farm in Newberry county
and in South Carolina is our aim. It
is without doubt our best winter
legume for soil building and grazing.
A good growth of bur clover will
put in the soil $10.00 to $12.00 worth
of nitrogen to say nothing of the
value of the humus added. A few
acres for grazing purposes will great-1
ly lessen your feed bill and your cattle
and hogs will thrive much better
than when fed on concentrates alone.
To insure a good seed patch to raise
enough seed for seeding large areas,
select a compact fertile spot and
eeed it heavily, 50 to 75 pounds of
burs to the acre. Use inoculating dirt
where clover has grown successfully
w - - - I
and if ^ you have not a rich, plot of1
land I would advise using some stable
manure broadcast on land for the
first year. A splendid place for a
small seed patch is your turnip patch.
After having sown your turnips in
.the fall, 60w some bur clover on the
top of ground. The clover will come
up, live through the winter and in
the spring after the turnips have
matured, the clover will produce a
good crop of seed.
By all means, plant you a seed
patch of this splendid "lazy man's
? ? J - J! _ 1
crop." uflt'e seeiieti, aiwajs secueu,
If you treat it right, yet, it is never
a pest.
Abbnizzi Eje.
Abbruzzi rye is also proving a
'Very valuable crop for grazing and
soil improvement. While it is not a
legume, not being able to take nitrogen
from the air, yet it prevents nitrogen,
already in the soil from leaching
away by taking it up in the winter
and holding it till spring. This
plant food is returned to the soil
'wken the rye is turned under in the
spring and can then be used by the
sunnier crop.
It is superior to our 6outhera rye
in that it makes earlier and ranker
growth and also produces more seed
per acre. It supplies, in large quantities
the most urgent need of South
Carolina soils?humus.
I hope to see a seed patch on every
farm this fall.

work in bleaching.
It is time for transplanting tomato
j plants, and care must be taken in doing
this. Have the land well culti-1
vated and fertilized. The flatter the
ridges the better, provided good
drainage is secured.
Setting plants. Beiore taxing up;
the plants, the son in which they are
growing should be thoroughly soaked
in order to make it adhere to the
roots. A good method to use in setting
the plants is to open a furrow i
with a turn plow and set the plants in
this furrow. If the soil is dry put
water around each, plant. A good distance
is to have the rows 4 feet apart
with plants 3 to 4 apart in rows.
Cultivation. Cultivate the soil as
often as necessary to keep the sur!
face loose and free from weeds and
grass. Frequent shallow cultivation
should be followed at all times so
mat tne moisture win ue reiameu. |
sSome hand hoeing will be necessary |
to keep the weeds down and the soil i
loose around the plants.

Crimson Clover.
Crimson clover is also a valuable!
crop for hay an-d soil building. It;
will grow successfully on practically
all the soils of New-berry county if!
limed and properly inoculated, but it!
grows better on the red soils of the
county.
Home grown seed sown in the chaff
have given much better results than
cleaned seed and I therefore advise
every one who .has crisomon clover
to gather as many seed as tie can. If
not needed on own farm they will find
ready saile here in the county. If
every seed in the county be gathered,

President Tells
Three
Reveals Some of the Motives
Strong for Peace, Yet So F
Rights of Humanity?Ca
Washington, LM'ay 16.?'President
Wilson tonight made public a frank
and intimate review of his three vears
* !
in the White House and his impressions
of foreign and domestic prob-!
lems, delivered confidentially last ]
night before Washington correspondents
gathered at the National Press
club. He spoke of the difficulties of
! the presidency and particularly of the
1 motives which have guided his hand
| ling of the European situation.
America, the president said, is f-or
peace because she loves peace aad
| believes the present war has carried
the nations engaged "so far that they
| can not be held to ordinary standards j
of responsibility." But, he added, the ,
United Staes has growa to be one of j
the great nations of the world and |
therefore must act "more or less from ,
the point of view of the rest of the !
*'world."
"If I can not retain my moral influence
over an American except by !
occasionally knocking him down," he '
; said, "if that is the only basis or |
which he will respect me, then for !
the sake of his soul 1 have got to :
occasionally knock him down."
Might Have to Strike.
The president declared he had been I
kept awake nights considering the,
European situation because there j
might come a time when the United j
States would have to do what it did j
not desire to do, and "the great bur-1
den on my spirits has been that it;
has bea up to me to choose when j

did not conceive that he had been
elected president to do as he pleased.
"If I were it -would have been very
much more interesting," he said.
Impressions of public men as a
class were given frankly by the president,
with the comment that somej
grew and some swelled. He also discussed
the relations of the newspapers
to the affairs of the nation and
sounded a warning that false infor-:
mation about foreign affairs was more !
than likely to lead to trouble.
The president's remarks as orig- j
inally delivered were read by him
carefully before being made public
but no important portions were elim- !
inated, and the wording was not
i changed substantially. The president
said:
"I am both glad and sorry to be
here; glad because I am always hap- j
py to be with you, and know and like \
so many of your, and sorry because !
I 'have to make a speech. One of!
the leading faults of you gentlemen
| of the press is your inordinate de-'
| sire to hear other men talk, to draw
[ them out upon all occasions, whether
they wish to be drawn out or not.
I remember being in this press club
once before, making many unpremidj
itated disclousures of myself and
then having you with your singular
instinct for publicity insist that I
should give it away to everybody
else."
"I was thinking as I was looking
forward to coming here this evening
o; that other occasion when I stoo<l
very nearly at the threshold of the
duties that I have since been called
upon to perform and I was going over
in my mind the impressions that I
then had by way of forecast of the
duties of president and comparing
them with the experiences that have
followed. I must say that the forecast
has been very largely verified and
fhflt thp imnrpssmnc T hctH tViPn VIPVP
been deepened rather than weakened.
Wants Some Rest.
"You may recall that I said then
that I felt constantly a personal detachment
from the 'presidency, that
one thing that I resented when I was
not performing the duties of the office
was being reminded that I was the
president of the United States. I felt!
towards it as a man feels towards a j
great function which, in working;
hours, he is obliged to perform, but
which out of working hours he is glad
to get away from and almost forget
and resume the course of his own
thought. I am constantly reminded,
as I go about, as I do sometimes at
the week-end, of the personal inconvenience
of being president of the
United States. If I want to know how
many people live in a small town all
I have to do is to go there and they
at once line up to be counted. I might,
in a census taking year, save the census
takers a great deal of trouble by
asking them to accompany me and
count the people on the spot. Some- {
times, when I am most beset, I se- i
riouslv think of renting a pair of;

I whiskers or of demanding something
| else that will furnish me an adequate
| disguise, because I am sorry to find
| that the cut Qf my jib is unmistakable
| and that I must sail under false colors
if I am going to sail incognito.
"Yet as 1 have matched my experi- <
encee with my anticipations I of
!
course have been aware that I was j
taken by surprise because of the;
prominence of many things to which 1
I had not locked forward. When we!
are dealing with domestic affairs, j
gentlemen, we are dealing with things i
that to us as Americans are more or j
less caluculable. There is a singular ;
variety among our citizenship, it is;
true, a greater vairety e.en than Ij
l.ad anticipated; but after all we are j
all steeped in the same atmosphere, we !
|
are all surrounded by the same en- ;
vironment, we are all more or less |
affected by the same traditions, and, j
moreover, we are working out some-;
thing that has to be worked out!
among ourselves, and the elements
are here to be dealt with at first hand.
The Hard Ouestions.
i
"But when the fortunes of your
own country are, so to say, subject
to the incalculable winds of passion
that are blowing through other parts i
of the world, then the strain is of a j
singular and unprecedented kind, be-1
cause you do not know by what turn
of the wheel of fortune the control of
things is going to be taken out of
your hands. It makes no difference
how deep the passion of the nation
lies, that passion may be so over-j
borne by the rush of fortune in cir-!
cumstances like those which now
exist that you feel that sort of?I almost
said resentment?that a man
feels when his own affairs are not
within his own hands. You can imagine
the strain upon the feeling of
any man who is trying to interpret the
spirit of his countrj when he feels
that that spirit can not have its own
way beyond a certain point. And one
of the greatest points of strain upon
me, if I may be permitted to point it
out, was this:
"There are two reasons why the
chief wish of Americans is for peace;
one is that they love peace and have
nothing to do with the nresent- nnar- i
rel; and the other is that they believe
the present quarrel has carried those
engaged in it so far that they can not
be held to ordinary standards of responsibility
and that, therefore, as
some men have expressed it to me,
since the rr't of the world is mad,
why should we not simply refuse to
have anything to do with the rest of
the world in the ordinary channels of
action? WVhy not let the storm pass,
and then, when it is all over, have the
reckonings? "\
"Knowing that from both these two
points of view the passion of America
was for peace, I was, nevertheless,
aware that America is one of the 'nations
of the world not only, but one of
the chief nations of the world?a na
| tion that grows more and more powI
erful almost in spite of herself; that
grows morally more and more inj
fiuential even when she is not aware
i of it;, and that if she is to play the
j part which she most covets, it is necl
essary that she should act more or
i
less from the point of view of the rest
of the world. If I can 'iiot retain my
moral influence over a man except by
occasionally knocking him down, if
that is the only basis upon which he
will respect me, then for the sake )f
his soul I have got occasionally to
! knock lum down.
The Real Basis.
"You know how we have read in?
isn't it in Ralph Connor's stories of
Western life in. Canada??that all his
sky pilots are ready for a fracas at
any time and how the ultimate salvation
of the souls of their parishioners
depends upon their using their fists
| occasionally. If a man will mot listen
I to you quietly in a seat, sit on his
neck and make him listen; just as I
have always maintained, particularly
in view of certain experiences of
mine, that the shortest road to a boy's
| moral sense is through his cuticle.
There is a direct and, if I may be
I permitted the pun, a fundamental
connection between the surface of his
skin and his moral consciousness.
You arrest his attention first in that
way and then get thp moral lesson
conveyed to him in- milder "ways that,
if he were grown up, would he the
only ways you would use.
"So I say that I have been aware
that in order to. do the very thing
that ive are proudest of the ability to ;
do, there might come a time when we j
t
I
would have to do it in a wav that wo
would prefer not to do it; and the
great burden on my spirits, gentlemen,
has been that it has been up to
me to choose when that time came.
Can you imagine a thing more calculated
to keep a man awake at night
than that? Because, just because I
did .not feel that I was the whole thing
and was aware that my duty was a
duty of interpretation, how could I be
sure that I had the right elements of
information by which to interpret
truly?
Do Their Own Thinking.
"What we are now talking about
is largely s-piritual. You say, 'All
the people out my way think so and
so.' Now I know perfectly well that
you have not talked with all the people
out your way. I find that out
again and agin. And so you are
taken by surprise. The people of the
LV.it^nl States are not asking anyh/wlv'c
lf>a vp tn rl/-i thorr? /atvti thin Vine
and are not asking anybody to tip
them off what they ought to think.
They are thinking for t&einseives,
every maa for himself, and you do
not know, and the worst of it is, since"
