SOUTH CAROLINA HOME J ]
PRODUCERS' ASSOCIATION. 1
?. !
The home demonstration depart- 1
ment has realized for sometime that: <
the crying need of the country woman 1
is to dispose advantageously of what 1
produce she has. This could only be,
accomplished through organization .A
cooperative organization handling the '
, products' of many producers is in a
- ' > * t
better position to establish and main-' 1
BWPggjgpyt^re tae^maividuai growers. Also it;
|PP8||K?r; }s a well known fact that organiza'Hons
rought into- being as a result of '
- a well defined need, are very much 1
. more secure than those created by an '
appeal to prejudices or misconcep- j J
tions. The year 1921 will ever be
remembered as a year of unprece- | <
dented financial disaster and depres- \ i
I
sion especially among the agricultural <
t |
/ class. Not since the Civil War has i 1
the farmer been so perplexed with!
problems as to his present need and I
his hopes for the future, so it was. 1
th# conditions were ripe for launching
this new development of home
demonstration work. Plans for the: {
sale of specialized products through an
* "I
organization te be known as the South : J
Carolina Home Producers' Assoca-1 1
tion were made in April 1921. . J 1
The purpose of this association is to 1
convert the surplus yield of the farm '
a
into money by placing on^ the market '
a standard product, and by this means
. \
H to encourage . production and conser- (
vation. Many women became ihter- '
'"v ested, afrf&i as a result, the association
hjjSi was launched. Interest grew apace.
A state'.niarreting agent was secured
in August, .JA21 with headquarters at
W in t^bop'College.
Originally, contracts were gotten 1
_ out for a number of products, but owing
to the.iaih'iculty of standardizing
so many different things, the contracts
were re-written in October.
1921, and the^ number of products cut
down to ten, most of which are distinctive
of our state. They include
blackberry jam, plum jelly, artichoke
relish, fig preserves, grape juice, soup

REDUCTION IN WAGES
MADE FOR RAILROADS.
Chicago, May 28 (By the,Associited
Press).?More than $48,000,000 '
vas slashed from the wages of 400,)00
railway employees in a decision
Dy the United States railroad labor
^oard tnoight. The decreases,
which averaged five cents per hour
n the majority, followed cuts of
$400,000,000 made last July by the
aoard. Today's decision, however
iffects mostly maintenance of way J
workers, although decisions are
pending affecting other classifica-'
tiong.
If the wage cuts made in the latest
decision are extended to other de- j
cisions expected soon it wUs pointed/
out in railway circles, much of the
$600,000,000 increase given by the
board in 1920 will be wiped out and
wages restored to a level which, railway
officials have told the board, will ^
lead to a new era of development and
open 13ns''"Way to the employment ot'

three ra a members of the board ;
and the * *eer.members repreesnting :
the public. A dissenting opinion
was filed by the three members representing
the labor gropp. The majority
opinion said that the wage
cuts, effective on July 1, were made
in accordance with decreases in the

vded in the decision was insufficient;
to sustain life on the basis of Ameri-j

Chicago, May 28 (By the Associ- j
ited Press).?Readjustment of the'
wages of approximately 400,000
maintenance of way employees oi
the railroads of the country, .-effective
July 1, in accordance with-, decreases'
in the cost . of living and
wages in similar outside enjoyment
since vthe decision ofvthe board
last July, was provided for in a decision
by "the United States railroad
labor board and made public tonight. J
The decision is expected to red^p.%
present pay rolls of the fail-tfdad.'
about $48,000,000 per year a'igd to
reduce the pay of the majority of
v
the maintenance of way men five
cents per hour, but important classes
of the employees were given a smaller
cut. Under thev majority head
were included J rack laborers. and
other classes usually- designate^ as'!
"common laborers."
The decision, was signed by the
three railroad members of the board
and the three members representing
the public group. A dissenting opinion
was filed by the three member.'
representing the labor group. The
dissenting opinion contended that the
wage scale provided in the decision
was insuiiicient to sustain me on me
basis of American standards. For
Common Labor.
Under the terms of the decision
the classes designated as "common
labor," and estimated to number
some 187,490, were cut five cents a\
hour. I^abor of a similar class employed
around shops, round houses
yards and terminals, numbering 91,249,
also was cut live tents an hour.
Drawbridge tenders and assistants,
pile drivers, ditching and hoisting

nance foremen and assistant forei
men were cut. three cents an hour.
Among other slashes were mechanics
in the maintenance of way department.
except those under the
shop crafts agreement, who were cut
four cents an hour. Mechanics' helpers
in these same departments, except
those under the shop crafts
agreement, were cut one cent ar
hour. It was emphasized, however,
that all of these were minimum rates

SHUN LIQUID SPRAYS FOR
POISONING BOLL WEEVIL.
A warning.. against liquid sprayei
attachements -4o cotton poisoning
machinery is issued by B. R. Coad,
director of. the. boll weevil laboratory
of the United States I^e&artment of
Agriculture. . Calcium :-$raenate ap-.
plied as a dust, he poin^piut, is the
only certain means yet fwfe^^or controlling
the boll weevil./^h^any effort
at control by ;of liquid
sprays is useless. Sprafra?? attachments
are, therefore, jfeagg only unnecessary
but are an burden.
, They increase , the cos# machinery
and make it mojfte complicated
and difficult to operate. The
liquid spray, even if it as effective
as the dust rtfethod Mould be
deeidedly more .expeQshMj||S woulC,
necessitate the use of-! ' atex^ea.rts, tc

which is not available -gen mos1

the cost of poisoning operations.

| fortunate in that tl?e^ mfe-'"feally effective
method of controlling the boll
weevil is the dust method and *the>
should not waste tim^ajspFr money
Mr. Coad points out,?^ experimenting
with the expensivemethods
that farmers in othj^ li#?s are
, so constantly trying to^fgetfs/awa\
from.
In addition to the foregoing spraying
equipment we also find on the
market many curious..devices -applying
some liquid; pr^a|etUifo, usually
containing* calcium $ ijrsien^te
for the control of the boll weevil.
Some of these are to be attached to
plows, others to cultivators, while
still others run. independently. They
are usually proyfd^ wi$t$ Borne exceedingly
simple^fbrth of-$a?k with a
?' ,?jC* i
gravity flow, of either
dropsv;on the pfadts tot is^wiped on
them "by some, fotm of pushes or
rags. Many such implements are
absolutely comical, and the only sad
feature is the fact that some farmer?
are,foolish"enqqgl^to purchase theifi.
The literatuij^: advertising these imV
' v -- 1 . -s
implements ^promises wonderful results;
r'And; |'he tiirectioks given often $?1T
.for'only a--small fraction c# a pound
of poison per acre, which is disj
tributed over the plants in a very
irregular manner. To expect boll
weqvii1 control from such methods :?
' t* 'ri n ' i
dbsblutely absurd. Thfc* Depart-1
ment specialists have been attempting
boll weevil control with liquid ap|
plicatons for many years. In these
; tests they use the finest available
high pressure spraying ifc^chinery
j distributing the . liquid poison over
| the plants in a mist form, thus reaching
absolutely every part1, of the
plant. Furthermore, these applications
.are usually made at tlje rate of
100 gallons ,of sclufipn pfirjacre. In
i spite of tftis these spray application?
, do not -control the boll weevil,,* and

REBUILDING THE SOVTH.
Cotton News takes pleasure in
giving publicity to part of a lettei
recently written to President .J. S.
Wannamaker by Dr. W. W. Long.
I Director of the State Extension
Service for South Carolina. Dr.
Long has made an extensive investigation
of the natural and potential
resources of the United States
and being a close student of conditions
past and present, his statement,
which is as follows, should
be read with interest and thoughtful
consideration:
"When it comes to South Carolina
agriculture, I am a hopeless
optimist, and so far as the potential
power of this state is con,
cerned we have only scratched on
the surface. Of course there are
going to be a gcXxl many men
who were caught in the deflation
trap that will be ruined, but by
V economy and hard work, guided
by intelligence, our people are
going to come back very much
? - 7- 1-. * "U ~ U/,?? ^ .
Jliore (HUVftiy man mc> ua\ t- aii,\
idea. A man who does not believe
this simply argues himself ignorant
of the agricultural history
of the South. Compare conditions
today from every standpoint
with the conditions that existed
among the agricultural
people in the SO's and 90's. They
were at that time absolutely ignorant
of-scientific agriculture,
pursu-ing the methods that had
been in vogue for practically the
last hundred years; with hostile
legislation: with thr' industrial
and financial world absolutely
believing that the interest of the
"rural p'eople was diametrically
opposed to their interest. They
were entirely without capital.
They were in the hands of the
' Shylocks of the country. Notwithstanding
all of these obstacles.
the Southern people built
up this civilization that we are
now enjoying in the South, and
they built it up by their own efforts.
There was no stream of
settlers pouring into this part of
the country to help develop it as
there was in the East, North and
West. What was accomplished
entirely by Southern people and
there is no force on the face of
the earth- that can now stop the
development of the South, especially
the Carolinas and part of
V Georgia. This is the garden
'? r spot of the earth. The only
'A,-trouble is that our people do not
; appreciate it. I have lived in
. Florida; I have lived in California:
in Connecticut, arid in Virginia,
and wast born in* North
.Carolina. Taking into eonsid- j
eratic-n the question of climate
soils, proximity to the great markets
of the world, we have everything
to make not only a great
agricultural people but a great
industrial people. Manufactured
- products today in North Carolina
are greater than the agricul
turai products. it is rajiiaiy Decoming
a great industrial state,
and likewise will South Carolina,
especally the Piedmont section.
When this is accomplished, we
will have our home markets and
with home markets and the advantages
above enumerated,
w:11 be-'repaired te, r.htke \
%*. tlsis the fnost delightiui section
of the world in which to live and
enjoy life."
What Dr. Long says of the Carolinas
and Georgia, is applicable to
the other states of the cotton belt
with equal force and effect. There
ate too many states devoting their
efforts almost entirely to the production
and export of raw products
while importing from other
sections the very necessities of lil'e
manufactured out the raw commodities
they produce. This if
not only uneconomic, but it retards
the progressive development and
. wealth of such states. It is a well
established fact that the per capita
wealth of the New England states
is greater ihan any other section
of the Union. This wealth has been
largely accumulated through the
manufacture of raw cotton produced
in the Southern states and
sold by the growers generally at
. prices which only .permitted a
merger . existence on Southern
farms. The capitalistic wealth of
New England- v has been largely
dfawn from other sections of the
nation, while the South has labored
to produce a world's most valuable
monetary product and exchanged
its yearly value for the imports of .
. necessities which should have been |
I7', produced in' the South.
iThese facts are cited merely to
show that/the South has too long
sold its birthright of natural resources
for what might be fittingly
termed a "mess of pottage". The
South has prospered in spite of
these uneconomic handicaps, but
they snotild not be allowed to continue
indefinitely. As Dr. Long
truly says, the Carolinas and Georgia
are forging ahead in industrial
development and have thereby set
an example worthy of emulation by
j the other cotton states. The fac!
tory multiplies the .primary, wealth :
df ithe raw product, increases the
population of wage earners and
provides attractive local markets
farm. < f *. t [
The task of the future, therefore,
J is to rebuild the agricultural indus[
try upon a sound and .^afe basis .,
for the diversified products of" the^
and multiply the industrial devel|
opment of the South as rapidly a*
possible. "

ST KIKE BALLOTS
TO FLA ji.vVAV MEN
Detroit. May 30?<By the Associated
Press).?The executive council ??r tiie
United Brotherhood o: Maintenance
of Way Employees and Kailway Shop
L?aobrers this afternoon unanimously
adopted a resolution instructing E. F.
Orable, the president, to send out
strike ballots to all members of the
organization and all non-union workers
of the crafts affected by the wage
cut ordered by the railroad labor
board Sunday.
President Orabel announced the ballots
would be sent out immediately
and that if the workers decided to
strike in protest against the cut. the
walkout Would be effective about July
ij. He estimated -4 7S.OOO members ol'
the union and ab,out 72,000 non-union
workers would be asked to vote, virtually
every railroad in the country
with the exception of short lines and
electric roads being affected.
The resolution adopted t y the exec-1
utive council which is composed of j
the officers of the union specified the !
ballots should ask whether or not the j
workers were wiling to accent the cut
and declared if they were not "the
union will use the full economic powers
of the organization to resist the
reduction of wages ordered by the
labor board."
President Grable ?aid afterward he
expected the returns would be in by
July 1, explaining in case of a strike
vote he was empowered to call the
men out and he fixed July 5 as the
tentative date by which arrangement.*
could be completed to put the strike
in effect. The wage cut is effective
July 1 under the board order.

FEDERAL LAND BANK % NOW
READY TO RECEIVE LIGHTED
NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS FOR
LOANS. If %
The Federal Land Bank has changed
its method of making loans ; now so
that every quarter they propose to allot
to the individual associations a
limited amount of funds.
The farmers desiring loans within
the terrtorial limits of Saxe-Gotha
National Farm Loan Association,
which is the local association, are requested
to make applieatons at once if
it is absolutely necessary for them to
have the money withir. the next ninety
days. If they do not have to have
the money within that time, they are
requested to reserve their applications
i until the next quarterly allotment, and
thereby save for the intervening time
the money whieh is required of the applcant
at the time of filing hs application,
as loans will be made now only
to those who are in urgent need.
From now on the Federal Land
I Bank has restricted its loans to per'
sons who are engaged exclusively in
farming and in the cultivation of their
own farms, either with the help of
