'J We are glad to note that the Epls copalians are doing some work in t Dillon. It will be quite a contribution ' to the community, for the EplBCop&l ' church always carries with it an at1 mophere of refinement, education and more religion than some credit them with. Dillon, like other towns, certainly needs some of all these I things. No one need be afraid of their 5! progress, but the rather give best r wishes to this struggling little congregation.

Fraternally, i E. C. BAILEY, Latta. - j o 1 [To the Latta Editor of the Dillon Herl| aid: | I trust that you will not think It " I presumptuous upon my part to sug1 jgest to the town council in your colu inns the propriety of a meeting of the '.citizens of the town for the purpose "iof organizing what we may term a bucket brigade or fire company, as 2jthe town is not financially able to 2 .furnish the necessary equipment. 'I A few months ago, I heard an un . i usuui muurniui sound or noise on Main street and after attuning my ear \ as best I could, I heard some poor ' individual, seemingly frightened to ' death, cry fire, then, the shot of a pis. jjtol or gun, followed by another voice ,aa hideous and lamentable as that of j the first voice cry fire. As the town provides no means for the fighting of fire I immediately j rushed to the scene of action. 1 found that our friend Clyde Parham's store was on fire. After so long . a time the inhabitants of the town : began to gather from every direction ! and notwithstanding the fact that j there were present possibly a hunjdied people or more, there was 110 j equipment with which to fight the J fire- Raids were instituted in differ . jent directions for the purpose of se~ t curing buckets, tubs, axes and things ^'that would be useful in fighting the fire. In their desperate efforts for securing same, they entered my prenit ises, over a block away, and stripped me of such vessels as they might find j without lief or license. Understand it x! that I am not blaming any one for j doing such under the circumstances .but simply wish to illustrate the pang demonium and disorder existing un. |der such distressing circumstances. f' There are a enough young men in t'the town whom I feel sure would icheerfully offer their services to -the | town council by becoming members . of the aforesaid company. And I feel that they believe that it is their duty jto their town and to their neighbors f'in rendering their very best service under such distressed circumstances, jl I am sure that a number of our . colored friends whom we may always j depend upon in a tune of trouble 1 would also cheerfully tender their t seivices to this company. J The town council should erect a j bell near the depot or telephone ofa lice because both of these places have some one on duty durinir the entire I night, und that both are centrally loi'rated, and most accessible, and should .'a fire occur which is sure to be the t case, the parties could communicate e 1 with them and he could ring the bell J and it would be known in every part , iof the town that there was a fire and ( that a neighbor was in deep distress. The bucket brigade as the Fire II Company above mentioned and the ?' colored volunteers could come to the yr1 scene of action in from three to five t minutes with their weapons in hand. j I Mr. Editor pardon me for having 9' said so much. I am sure if you had . been at Mr. Parham's fire and others .'that we have had in our town would i.'cause you to appreciate my object in J writing the foregoing, and I trust pltha t you may see the situation as I -'do and will urge some action upon a'the part of the town council as sugi.' gested by me. -J Respectfully B L.

SMITH. o i FACTS ABOUT COTTON' .I World production of cotton outside s | of the United Suites for factory con51 sumption, has averaged 7,138,000 '. bales a year for the past 10 years, J according to U. S. Census figures, a J Pink boll worm, the most deadly of '. ,all enemies of the cotton plant first e made its appearance at Hearne, Tex., in 1917. Like the boll weevil it came e from Mexico. i. Foreign grown cotton to the nurnsjbev of 682,911 bales was Imported 'into the United States last year. It k consisted mostly of Egyptians, and XIVA, THURSDAY MORNING, MAJRC1 was the largest quantity ever import- v ed. . t The number of ginneries in the t United States in 1919 was 22,418 of li which 18,815 were active, and gin- C ned an average of 602 bales each. t Of the total of 18,815 active gins t in the United States during 1919 all A but 93 were saw gins. J Roller gins are used principally in C ginning sea-island cotton, and the o long staple cottons of Arizona and p California. I There is now enough cotton in the E world, unspun, to last nearly two I years. t The total capacity of gins in the I United States in 1919 was 973,717. c Bolviar Co., Miss, was the only S county which ginned more than 100,- e 000 bales in 1919; seven reported more than 75,000 25 more than 50,- C 000 and 128 more than 25,000 bales, ii The cotton crop of 1919 wa9 gin- h ned in 887 counties, of which 308 c ginned less than 5,000 bales each. s From the year 1900 to the outbreak of the Great War in 1914 the a number of cotton spindles has in- a creased at the rate of about 3,000,- ti 000 every year. c Since 1914 the number of rnttnn ti spindles fit for use has been reduced ti from a total of 154.000,000 to a tot- g al of 138,000 000, a decrease of 16,- e 000,000 dur;. g the six years. \t> In the United States there are 68 j counties which have more than 100,- ii 000 cotton spindles each. |o Bristol County, .Mass., with 7,-!c 63 2,003 cotton spindles, leads all ot'n-1 f er counties in the total number. In Rough Peruvian cotton is used to some extent for mixing with woll in ' the making of wool textiles especially imitation woolensChinese and Indian cotton consum- j ed in the United States is domestic upland cotton. The term "upland" is applied to all ; cotton produced in this country, ex-j 1 cept sea-Island cotton, and includes t the long staple upland varieties. j a o 1 Cl*T AC REACH OR CO BROKE, f I f banners AVill Ruin TheinseRes and, Bankrupt the South If They Plant Full Crop of Cotton. 1 Columbia, March 3. ? Executive * committees of various organizations,'1 meeting yesterday at the Jefferson'' hotel, went on record as favoring a 1 reduction in cotton acreage, accord- ^ ing to the Memphis plan, and also 1 adopted a resolution calling upon the,1 bankers of the state to meet in Co- j lumbia at an early date and discuss 1 the agricultural situation and outline 1 plans for meeting it. The appoint-!1 nient of the committee to inform the executive committee of the South j1 Carolina Bankers' association was left i1 in the hands of Bright Williamson of 1 Darlington. The committees meeting together yesterday were those of .1 th e South Carolina division of the ,1 cotton association, the bankers' as-' sociation, commercial secrataries' as j1 sociation, the development board, the 1 press association and the automotive.' trade association. The meeting was characterized by J i comment on the outlook for the fu-' < ture of this state, gloomy forecasts 3 being made as to future conditions! unless the farmers of South Carolina < reduce their acreage sharply and ! I raise more food crops for which some | i system of market inir liitiKf he nrn-l vided. "We can not exaggerate the ! | seriousness of the situation facing! the south", said It. I. Manning, pres- ! i ident of the American Products Ex- 11 pert and Import corporation. "All j who have the welfare of the I South at heart should insist on j ' acreage reduction- If the banks J should change their policy and j call for cotton to be sold, it is impossible to say to what point it would t descend in price. The next 60 days, I I believe, will tell the tale; if cotton is sold in any quantity, the farmers will r I not be able to settle their obliga- ' iticns with bankers and merchants, i If they hold on to their cotton, they [ j will likely be able to settle their I obligations. If cotton is sold, it . j means that more will be planted. If [ I it is held, the acreage will be reiduced." 'r The banker, the land owner, the T I share cropper and the lien merchant I and the part they huvc. to play in f | act cage reduction were discussed at ' ngth, it being finally brought out f by J. P. Stribling of Oconee county | that acreage reduction is purely a ituanciai ciuesuon. 11 trie nanaer : furnishes the money, the cotton will I be planted," said Mr. Stnbling. "If he refuses the money, the farmer; can't plant cottn." T. B- Stack house of Columbia held that the banker was helpless, saying that the banks in New York would call on the banks in this state for loans, and that the banks in turn-l would be forced to call on the producers. He held it was up to the land owners to bring about the reduction. The bankers in New York, who have done all that the southern farmer has a right to expect, will show preference to the farmer who cuts his acreage 50 per cent, he said. If the indications are that the farmers are going to plant a full crop again this year, then the bankers J will call for their loans, which will fofce the selling of cotton now being held, he argued. Mr. Stackhouse said the textile i: a nu fact urine Dlants have their warehouses full of nuuiu fact u red products; (hat there is no demand for their goods; that many of them have closed down, and that others ar0 running on part time, and that it would bo folly for the farmer to grow a full crop under present conditions. ' The state would be better off, he said, if no cotton were grown. The lien merchant was discussed at leugt h and the land owner, too, was ' mentioned, though it was finally ! agreed that the banker holds the keys in his hands, hence the resolution to have the bankers m'eet in Co-J lumbia and discuRs plans for reduc- j ing acreage. Governor Cooper mode the opening address at the meeting, saying that it i 10, mi. vould be little lefts than criminal for I he state to produce as much cotton | his year as it did last. Bright Wil-,1 iamson of Darlington presided after ' Jovernor Cooper had retired. Among;1 he speakers were: R. C- Hanier of ' he State Cotton association, R. 1. fanning of the export corporation, E . S. Wannamaker of the American 1 'otton association, T. B. Stackhouse f the Standard Warehouse com- 1 any, J. H. Claffey of Orangeburg. 1 larvle Jordan of Monticello, G?.; A. 1 >.

I * itribling of Oconee and several othT8. J. S. Wannamaker of the American | "otton association, in stressing the! tnportance of reduction, said that' rhen farmers were asked to cut their otton lands something else must be1 uggested to take its place. | He said a three fold plan should be rranged. The first will call for acregc reduction; the second for the esablishment of markets for other rops; the third is for the legislature o throw protection arnnnH on crop. Mr. Wannamaker had sug- ' estions for putting these plans into I ffect and his plans were adopted in > n by the ineetting. i After expressing itself as favor- I rig the plan of having but one third f the cultivated land in cotton and 1 ailing on the bankers to meet and ' urther consider the situation the ' neeting adjourned. ! o 1 Hoine Demonstration Department- ] ment. (Conducted by Etta Sue Sellers) The Selection of Clothing. i Wisdom and good judgment must i e exercised in the careful selection' >f clothing. In order to buy wisely nid economically the house keeper1 nust learn to distinguish between ( food and poor materials. She should ilso take into consideration the other ' antily expenditures, and should ipend only a proportionate amount or clothing. The clothing should be romfortuble and healthful; suited to' he individual for whom it is chosen; ruitable for the occasion upon which ' t is to be worn, and attractive in ap-1 ^earance. Wise spending for clothing ueans deciding definitely what wej kvant and what we can afford to pay i tor it, and then trying to procure it is economically as possible, not for- J getting that We should get from our( selection the maximum of service.
