satisfactory and equitable way to buy I

1 1 iK to F. ,0. Ildre. poultry husband
man of Clemson College, who Ih dolr.^
what ho can to micourAge farmer* In
South Carolina to adoi>t thin iu?>tho*l
for all poultry -transaction*.
"Tho praeth** In vogue In'vpflom
SOCtiOUH of tho state of selling chick
ens hy tho pair," said Mr. Ilaro, *"ls
unprolltahlo for hoth producer and con
sumer. The consumer gains and tho
produce? loses when a woIIHomIhhI pair
of chickens is aold for tho same price
as a thin pair. Tho consumer loses ami
the producer khIiih whon tho former
huyH a pair of thin hints as tho sumo
prl<*e as that paid for well-Meshed
chickens.
"In reference to buying chlckeux, It
Is Interesting to uoto an tixjierlment
conducted hy an agricultural col lego.
Two pairs of farm-raised Marred Ply
mouth Hocks of equal weight were
bought. One pair when killed weigh
ed (I I 2 pounds and tho ehlekens were
eooked. There was 1 potind, 10 ounces
of edible meat, 12 ounces of bone, and
?^ pounds, four ounces of waste licit
ter. The other pair was fatted for si
month and when killed weighed ,10
pounds, 12 ounces. After being ew?ked
they produced f> pounds of edible meat,
IS ounces of lame, and 4 pounds, 10
ounces of waste matter. The special
feeding this pair had received had
added .'I pounds of good meat and very
little bono.
"From the above ex|>crlinent we lino
that there Is throe times as much meat
on a fatted chicken as on a thin one.
The latter is unprofitable to buy. It
is more protttahlc to purchase one well
moated chicken than a pair of thin
birds of equal weight, as In the latter
case one pays for two carcasses In
stead of one.
"Tlfe only satisfactory and equitable
way to buy poultry Is by the pound.
Then both producer and consumer give
and receive value. It is Interesting tr.
note that selling by the pound Is grow
ing in favor In our markets. It Is tl.e
only method used in markets where tl.e
poultry Industry receives more atten
tion. No one thinks of buying beef '?r
|x?rk at so much a piece ? whether large
or small ? and it is just as unjust to
buy chickens by tin* pair as to expect
the merchant to sell other wares of
varying vhIiioh for a certain fixed
price."
Charleston stands first In the amount,
invested in enterprises, being over nine
teen million, with (Jreenvllle a elos"
second, of the 10 million in Charles
ton over 11 million is invested in fer
tilizer factories. (Jreenvllle lends in

What J* the matter with the United
States?"
Ah I ha ve Ikm'H residing lu Ixutdon
nince the beginning of the war, I hive
been hearing thin question asked on
all side?, I have never hoard any ant'
isfactory answer. N? one seems to
know.
Why are the American factories not
running night and day? Why are th%?
railroad** not opening up new territo
ries and getting ready for. the millions
of ImnilgratitH who have already made
up their inlndN to leave Europe an soon
an the war 1h over?
Why are there not fifty American
(Jjuminera In London right now, try
ing to Hell |200, 000,000 worth of Amor
lean goodx In place, of the goods that
were bought laat year from Oerinany
and Auatria?
Why have advertisers become quit
ters, just at the time when their ad
vert 1 semen ts were moat needed and
moat effective In cheering on the busi
ness forces of the United State#?
From the Euroi>ean jxjint of view,
the 1 'lilted States is a haven of peace
and security ami prosperity. It has
iu? troubles that it dare mention to Bel
glum or Austria or France or (iermi
ny or Her via or (ireat Britain or Rus
sla.
Every tenth Briton has enlisted.
Every tenth Frenchman Is at the front.
Every tenth Belgian Is dead. What
does the United ftfates know of trou
ble?
If 1 could afford It, I would char
ter the Mauritania and Lusitanift and
convey a party of 5,000 American Ad
vertlsers to Europe for a trip of edu
* at Ion. I would give them a week in
London, a week in Paris, and n week
in Antwerp. ,
I would let them look at the United
states from the sc,ene of war. I wquld
give them a look at real trouble. I
would let them see trains, ten at n
time, live minutes apart, packed with
the tmi lined nnd dying.
I would let them hear, from frag
mentary survivors, the incredible sto
ry <?f battlefields 150 miles wide, and
armies that are greater than the en
tire population of Texas.
I would let them see graves 100
varda long and full, and Belgium, the
country that was. nothing now but
12.000 square miles of wreckage.
Then, when they began to under
stand. to some slight extent. tfTe magni
tude and awfulness of this war, I
would say to them :
'Now ko back and appreciate the
I nlted States. Healize your oppor
tunltles. Don't start digging trenches
when nobody Is /I ring at you. Don't
fall down when you hav'e not Ihmhi lilt.
Don t be blind to the most glorious
chance you have ever had In your life.
"(to hack and advertise. (Jet ready
for the most tremendous business boom
that any nation ever had. Build yonr
factories bigger. Train more salesmen.
Morrow more money. C,o ahead, and
thank (Jod that you are alive and that
your family Is alive, and that you are
li\ing in a land that Is at peace, at a
time when nearly the whnlf world is at
war. ? Herbert N. Casson In Associa

ILLITERACY SCANDAL
TO SOUTH CAROLINA;
Estimate From Club Rolls Show
? On? put of Every Five Can
-no?Sifti
? ? " /
Columbja. Jan. 0.-VThftf 20 per cent
of the white men South Carolina of
rotting age an) Illiterate la the estimate
made from literacy figure** compiled
by Htate Superintendent John. I\
Swearlngeit from 33 out of 44 eoun
ties lit South Oarollua, based on the
returiiH of the Democratic club rolla.
Thin Im an increase of 100 per cent in
Illiteracy among white voterN In four
year#, for the Federal census of 101')
showed that 10.8 of the white voters
of tho Htate were Illiterate. "Public
school organisation and efficiency are
challenged In clarion toues l?y these
figuron," nays Htate superintendent of
education Swearlngen In his annual re
port to tho General Assembly.
Cherokee county occupies the unen
viable position of showing the greatest
l>crcoutagu of Illiteracy iffti on g the
white voters of the State In the tig
ures of thirty three out of the forty
four counties reported to State Supt. of
Education Swearlngen. The percent
age of Democratic voters in Cherokee
county who are unable to sign their
own namcH In 20.3. Marlboro comes
next with 27.0, Plckena third with 26.4,
Lancaster fourth with 25.2 and Spar
tanburg a dost* fifth wltlfSfc |?er cent.
1 Figures were not| obtained from the
countlea * of Barnwell, Betpcelcy, Char
leston, Chesterfield, ColletOn, Fairfield,
Greenville, Greenwood, Horr.v. Iam* ami
Orangeburg.
Beaufort carries off llrat honors in
tho small percentage of Illiteracy, only
7 per cent of her white voters being
unable to si^n their munes to the Dem
ocratic club rolls. Edgefield, the homo
county of Senator Tillman, and of
Superintendent Swearlngen, stands s<
cond with 8.1 and Calhoun is third
with 10 jH?r cent. These figures were
obtained from tho Democratic club
rolls.
"The census of 1010," says Superin
tendent Swearlngen In his. report to
the General Assembly, "showed 17,
KOft white males of native parentage
who were unable to read and write.
The census further shows that 10.3 per
?out of our white voters were illiter
ate. These figuref\ were questioned by
many but the Democratic rolls of 103-1
disclosed some interesting facts in this
connection. Doubtless hundreds of
names were marked with a cross on
those rolls for reasons that might be
easily enumerated. How much would
tt mean for the cause of education if
every voter unable to write his name
would feel humiliated and ashamed to
make his mark. The need of such a
sentiment is plainly seen in the liter
acy figures compiled from tlje Demo
cratic enrollment lists of the several
counties."
Commenting: further on the literacy
figures Mr. Swearingen says: "The??e
figures show that the Confederate Vet
era ns 'of 00 years are perhaps bettor
educated than thetr grandsons of 21.
The state was redeemed from carpet
has rule in 1870. The Reform Move
jfient of 1800 originated in the demand
for an agricultural college. Neverthe
less. 20 i>er cent of the men horn with
in the last 38 years are either llllter
ate or not unwilling to sign_ their
names with a mark. 1*111)110 school or
ganization and efficiency are challeng
ed in clarion tones by these figures."
The totals from the .33 counties pre
sent an Interesting study and afford
room for serious thought, as pointed
out by an educator here today. Of the
30,834 vc.-ters between the ages of Si
to 20 years reported. 5, 700 made their
mark; of the 28,400 between 30 and
30 years of age. 5.172 made their mark :
18.240 between rhe ages of 40 and 4'i
registered and of the number 2,505
made their mftrk ; of the 13,304 be
tween the ages of ,r>0 and 50, 3,320 made
their mark ; of the 12.504 between toe
ages of 00 years and up, 4. 000 made
their mark. These thirty three coun
ti?n rej>orted a Democratic enrollment
>f 104.804 and of this number 22,251
made their mark, or in other words,
over 22 per cent of the white Demu
fratle voters in thirty three counties
are illiterate.
The -total enrollment of Democrats
i In the 44 counties was 154,870, and to
| get the percentage of Illiteracy for the
state would be necessary to have th<*
figures from every county. Superin
tendent Swearingen made every effort
I to gather figures from each eoun<y.
but repeated requests from the eleven
counties named brought no response.
It is believed that 20 per cent illitera
cy among the. white citizens of Soutr.
I Carolina is correct.
That one out of every five white men
j is illiterate, unable to read and write
his namtv is bound to add increased
demand for the enactment of a com
pulsory school attendance law, in th '
opinion of leaders in South Carolina
If this estimate is correct the flllterr,
cy among the white men has donbled
since the census of 1010; in other
words, increased 100 per cent

was seriously shot at Iieaufort dnrlng

his recovery.

Rembert, S. O., Jan. 12. ? It is an
old Haying that a hot summer will b?>

(proven true so far. WeV are surely
In the midst of a rough winter. "No
work has commoncnd on the farms for

?another crop. The wet weather hHS
kept a good deal of wheat from being
planted, but what is up looks very
well. If people don't turn over a new
leaf toward farming they deserve to
suffer. All cotton is a picture for pro.i
perlty that you can't put your hands
on.
The usual moving Is going on. A
number of them don't know what tc
do. and we guess it is so with a great
many others.
Miss Pearl Hatfield, after a-^visit oi
some days here, returned to her home
at Cassatt. She is a fine young lady
and has lots of friends here who are
always glad to see her.
If England had Cleveland to deal
with she would act quite differently in
