Washingtoh, Jan. 25. — WeU-in- formed senate soiirces said today that President Roosevelt had select ed Senator James F. Byrnes of South Carolina to succeed James C. Mc- Reynolds as an associate justice of the supreme court. Mr. Roosevelt said yesterday he had selected an appointee, but added that the name would not be an nounced for many ^eeks. McRey- holi^ will n^Ure February 1. The chief executive on^ laughed when asked whether the nomination would be delayed until after con gress acts on his aid-to-Britain leg islation. Senator Byrnes has been designat ed one of tbe floor managers for the bill and senate informants said that announcement of his appointment to the supreme court would be with held until the measure had been dis posed of. Senator Byrnes himself was un communicative, but it was reported reliably that he was receptive to a court appointment. Senators Barkley (Democrat, of Kentucky), the ma jority leader; Glass (D^ocrat, of Virginia), and Harrison (Democrat, of Mississippi), called at the White House earlier this week to urge Byrnes’ appointment. All are key figures in th^ senate, and Mr, Roose velt was said to have decided defi nitely on Byrnes after conferring with them. I Dr. Feldir SaHh Dr. Dwican S.

Under present conditions, Cannon pointed out, farmers must realize that imder present economic conditions, foreign markets Urt' itot to be depended on, and it is neces sary to produce their farm needs in order to meet their financial obliga tions and for a better standard of living. At the same hour and date throughout South Carolina eadi county will hold a similar meeting and for the same purpose as the Lau rens meeting. A farm survey made last spring on 4755 Laurens county farms showed 21 per cent planting no com, 50 per cent no wheat, 28 per cent no vegetables, 42 per cent no sweet potatoes, 55 per cent no Irish potatoes, 85 per cent no syrup, 33 per cent no hogs, 43 per cent no milk cows, 29 per cent no pouKry, imd 9$ per eent no improved pas tures; Again this year plans are to con duct a similar “bettn* farm living*’i program and award certificatos nast| Captain.
