All fARMERS Of CLARENDON CAN RAISE BIC ROG CROP It is an easy imatter to tell the Southern planter that right now he is the victim of the one crop system which rules in ninety-five percent of the communities south of the Ohio river. What he needs now is to be shown the way out and ease( over the present crisis. Don't get pessimistic for we have weathered worse storms than we have on now, and did it with out the Federal Bank, the greatest safety valve our country has evert known. But the planlters of the south must plant less acres to cotton for at least a time and put more in grains and grasses and have something to sell besides cotton. The south has not, only growna the cotton the northern' man wears, but lie has bought a good ly portion of the pork of the hog belt'. farmier's raising. It is time lie raisedl his own, at least, andl had some to sell besides. There is no farm animal that brings returns so quickly as the hog or is there a live stock business into which .the planter can enter so cheap ly as into the growing of pork.

ERSEY ASSOCIATION e 11 CHICAGO, ILLINOIS which at present they find themsel Ves in, the governor was complying with a re(quest made by the South Carolina Division of the American CAton Association. Similar action has been taken by the governors of the other cotton growing states of the nation. The proclamation issued by the S(;overnor' follows: I "The South Carolina division of the American Cotton Association has re _ quested that I designate the first f Monday in January as "cotton acreage reduction day" in South Carolina. I f gladly comply with this request. For the time being, the markets of the world are not absorbing raw cotton, 1 and one cannot tell how long it will be e before the staple will again bring a profitable price to the grower. It is certain that a large supply of cotton will be carrie over from the present e crop if, in 1921 there is added to this carry over another large yield, the price will again be distressingly low. It is, therefore, as a matter of econ-. om ic sblf-preservation, incumbent up 0 on the cotton States to take intelligent cognizance of the situation with re 0 ference to raw cotton and see to it e that. the market does not remain glut - ted throughout another season. e "Our escape from the unhappy pre I. dicament in which we now find our r selves lies in the production of greater cquantities of food and feed crops. s Mere reduction of cotton acreage, by e itself, is noti a thorough Holution-it 8 is but half of the process necessary to ), liberate us from the one-crop bondage. t "In the light of the situation as - suggested above, I proclaim the first c Monday in January, 1921 as cotton acreage reuction day for this State, and I urge that upon that (lay all South Carolinians devote- their best thought to the situation ,and resolve to meet it, and to prevent a replica of it, by united intelligent action. - Wherefore I have hereunto set by e hand and seal, this fourteenth (lay of - December, in the year of our Lord one 0 thousand, nine hundred twenty.
