HEAVY RAINS AND COLD
PROVING DISAS1 ROUS
N Such intensely cold wea'her as has
held upper South Carolina in its grip
for the last few days is seldom experienced
in this section during the
spring. Following the rain Sunday
morning there was a decided drop in
the temperatur-* snd the freezing point
was reached Monday night. Tuesday
morning ice was generally seen in low,
exposed places where the rains of the
last few days had not run off. With
the unseasonable cold all prospect of a
full fruit crop this year became a thing
of the past and it is now said by those
who have orchards that at best few
peaches will reach maturity this year.
But however disturbing the thought
of the scarcity of home grown fruit
may prove, there is the more disturbing
thought that April 8 is here and
not on one farm in half a dozen in this
section has a furrow been run toward
the preparation of the land for the
cotton crop. Rain has fallen in thiH
| section on an average of every third
day since February 1 and the farmers
are consequently farther behind with
their work than has been the case in
| years. A full cotton crop cannot be
expected in this section unless the seed
j are in the ground before the last of
April. Many farmers are therefore
saying that with only three weeks left
in which to plant their cotton the best,
they can now hope for, even should the
1 rains cease and at once be succeeded
by warm spring-like days, is to put
two-thirds of a crop in the ground.
Hans to Reject Pence Resolatinn?
Washington, April 7.?The belief that
Germany will not accept the peace resolution
of the republican house leaders,
thus making it ineffective in restoring
normal trade relations, was expressed
today by Representative Flood, of Virginia,
ranking democrat on the house
committee on foreign affairs.
In the minority report for the house
democrats on the peace resolution,
which will he called up tomorrow, Mr.
Flood attacked the resolution to declare
war ended on these grounds:
It will cause the I'nited States to
lose her hold on $750,000,000 worth of
German property held during the war;
it is unconstitutional because it assumed
the treaty-making power* of the president;
it will cause serious difficulties in
the collection from Oermnny of the cost
of maintaining the American forces as n
'>art of the army of occupation, unless
Germany readily accepts the resolution;
it will also bring aland "endless international
tangles."
The cost of maintaining the American
army along the Rhine is estimated at
$100,000,000.
