The ultimate purpose of this Immi gration department of our State Is to Increase the good population. To keep desirable people from quitting South Carolina would surely be a better way than to bring unknown quantities Inta the State and to trust to luck that they will come up to expectations.

Annie Hunter, of Pittsburg, Pa , and when I got better, although I bad one of tbe beat doctors I could get, 1 was bent double, and had to rest my hand* on my knee* when I walked. From this terrible affliction I was rescued by Electric Blttera, wuich restored my health and stiength, and now I can walk as straight as ever. They are simply wonderful. Guaran teed to cure stomach, liver and klnkey disorders, at C. N.

All that available for Immigrants! In ffDOnd numbers the area of South Caro lina. awtmps, marshes, ‘stream beds, public road* all lncludsd t Is 31 square rallea, of which, according to the News end Courier figures, of speech « Md alleged facts, at least 20.813 square miles, two-thirds of the total area avail able for ' thrlftv home seekers at mod- arate figures." Or to make It so plain that he who 'guns (a newspaper) mar reed the tax hooka of Barnwell County show that |te acreage, everything In the way of noil end water Included, Is 6o2,795 acres. Now to get up tbe orer thirteen million acres advertised by tbe News and Courier as available for Immi grant* it weuld taka twenty three Counties-as large as Barnwell to make -good. There’e notwo-lhl'-ds nor one-third •f Barnwell County available for Im migrant* and wo suppose the 'came «tateof faot exist* In all tne counties of the State, excepting possibly/the few In the north west corner, that have •tripped the farms of white labor to en fear the slavery or peonage of their cot me aellle. Tie people who are so urgent to fill Ha State to the brim with Immigrants 4oe't understand the country folks or their condition* nor have they consld- ared tht baleful eonseqnencea that would follow tht ausfteaa of their theo ries. The country people are getting •n comfortably well. They have had herd times but are getting out of the woods and approaching comfort and prosperity. They are making good livings, wKh enough to spare to keep the gram from gro«lng In the city #tfeet*, and while the single immigrant •T family coming without eelicUation will ha welcome there is no room for the overflow, that their would be guar dlana would pour upon them. It Is up to the News and Courier to prove Its proposition or to take the back traok, undo as far as possible the barm that haa been done te its reputa tion for foresight and to hereafter think twice before It apeak* once. Is It 1* A BETTER WAY. Only In the most complimentary terms as to his fine character and ca pacity have we heard Commissioner Watson spoken of. The testimony of all that know him, whether advocates •f. Indifferent to or directly opposed to Imroigratlou agrees that there Is noj a man In the Btate better fitted to fill the oAce. Yet with all his Intelligence •ad. activity he has accomplished no striking or aatiefactory result*. The obstacles are too great. Except among •be few who have axes to grind, land toaall ortobe cultivated, there la no call ef consequence for Hnmlgrant*. Thrifty people, the sort that the Itnmi gratlon enthusiasts think wanted, are •fiber wall enough to do at their homes or think that they can do better for thameelvee in a higher latitude where tbe cltaefe le Hbt that to which they have been accustomed and where the bcafbgr m black doe* not count In In slustalal competition. To people tha North and West the managers of Immigration Into the Viflted Stales have wilfully, malicious ly apd with m#llce prepense ai*A a fore- t poisoned the miods of all de- European and A mar lean new against the Sunny South I am very much Interested In light you are making, first, for right sort of immigrant*, and, second for the repayment of cost of tuition by those who avail themaelvea of free ed ucstional institutions. I believe nine men In ten among your readcra, among • majority of the readers of all she newspapers In the country, would agree with your correct position If, in considering the question, they might be able to divorce, temporarily, the ad vantage* at band, so as to see clearly What you ate contending for Is essen Hally r'ght; at the, same time essen tially advantageous to those directly affected, to the community they belong to,the county and State they live in and even the nation aa a whole. Let us look for a little moment, very Inad equately of course, at the immigration question. To-day the Sonth Is the hope of the nation. Do not smile at this and at tribute It to the enthusiasm of a native of that aeallpn, a lover of It* people. Its history. Its tradition* .and Its aspira tions. It is’4. QOtd fact, even If you cannot get acknowledgement of It free ly and frankly, and It stacks out among the high and honest thinker* of even tills section ; is openly admitted by the foremoat of them who unite Indepen dence to a passion for truth. In con firniMtion of this, recall the recent speech of that great son of Mnssachu setts. lion. Samuel McCall, before the Legislature of Louisiana. Now, that is so, what Is wanted Is to pre serve In all strength and vigor the characteristic* ef the South—not weaken, dilute or change them. Isu’i It sof — , How does Immigration affect the question f That depends. lf ,imml grants are sifted carefully and limited to an assimilable number, the result helpful in tbe direction desired, enables you good folk to make so small an addition of new matter BBcoMa wMat TOO am, a part of you. preserv ing, perpetuating, enlarging, vitaliz ing thoae admirable qualities which are so much needed in all the affairs that now beset, encompass, and too of^ ten drive ua, whether they bo the small tblug* of every-day life, or such as relate to the larger concerns of gov ernment. On the other hand. Ilia go ing about the subject the thought dominant that It only requires the in flux of a big lot of people, perhaps of strange habits, tastes, convictions, to Insure success, progress, development, it looks to me a* if » great mistake will be made. The boot will then be on the oilier leg. Instead of reforming and digesting, ynuMI become' the reformed a ndd I g6 * ted, •*»A-la.»ita wrest akd growing want, when the nation to the South for aid and comfort it Will find that section subject to the same evils it seeks relief from what might be done In a few years, as conditions are now, must wait for—who shall say how long? Who shall say if not for ever? If the South is willing to pay the penalty of unrestricted Immigration, it can surely make more money, build more palaces of business, put man; pleasant and altogether desirable meas ure* afoot, and make the welkin ring with the sound of hammer and saw and other voices of progress. If the*e were ALL the consequence it would be easy going, but they are only the music, the colored lights, the fascinations that go with every descent into Avernus. Now, for a glance at the other ques tion—“Should young men who avail themselves of free college educations provided by their State reimburse the Bute for tbe cost thereof?” Agreeing with you, I say yes, em phatically yes. Because it is right and just, and because It Is to the young man’s advanUge. Practically everyone agrees that it Is good for a young man starling in life to hawe a burden to carry. Not too heavy a load, something adjusted to his strength; in fact only what will con stitute necessary ballast for «teadv go log or firm stmding. What sort of burden more fitted to the occasion could possibly be found than the obli gation or honor to pay back to the Btate tbe cost of Ills higher education? That sort of obligation Induces healthful reflection, lead* the young man to ask, “why?” In seeking the answer he I* strengthening himself In adiDlaalon* which bo cannot avoid; he Is learning how insistent are the de mand* of that intangible thing called “honor,” which has lald th* burden to pay on bis shoulders, and voW a*.to- aCTORR vlkasant AND .DisiRABLa A tUN* IT IS TO HERD SNU OBEY THOSR FAndb;’ add he is learning the great practical, moral fesson of life, namelv : THAT NO MAN 18 ENTITLED TO SOMETHING FOR NOTHING. II President Harvle Jordan has Issued an ad dress op the cotton situation. Tbe loyalty of Southern business people generally has brought alxnit the present better conditions and the brighter promise of the future. Unless there is speedy improreraent in the ootton crop the supply for 1908 will fall far short of demand and prices will go much higher. Abnormally high prices will b« as dtoastroOsforJbe future as abnormally low prices and all producers should discourage -speculative Interests tha* would try to drive the price above 1J cents and no farmer should ever again sell a pound of middling cotton below 10 cents. The South holds a complete monopoly of the cotton industry of the world up to 13 cents. It is bad policy in the farmers to sell cotton for delivery in the future, as the market would be deluged, prices would break and those who must sell would be injured. Mar ket slowly ahd do not go Into speculative nroiMwltloMc^-. - — ml _ ' , The rapid development of a cotton ware house system is absolutely essential to the best system of marketing cotton for high prices and the matter should be pushed at ev ery ootton point In the South. It is now imperative that the membership of the Association be built up in each county. Local oCBccrs should pash tbe Increase of membership after the crops are laid by. Don’t let the golden opportunity slip by. UNION MEETINGS ON JULY 29-30. ] 1 Query. How can our local church es increase their effectiveness in de nominational work? A.

Charles M. Harvey In Leslie's Weekly. Many of the Confederacy’s sons were very robust physically aa well a* in tellectually. Although all its Cabinet and Its Senate have departed, a few of the members of the House of Repre •entatlyes survive. These, with tbelr present places of residence, are Roger A Pryor of New York City, A. 8. Colvar of Mempbla. William U. Tibbs of Dalton, Ga., John Goode of Wash ington, D. C., Hiram P..Bell of Gum ming Ga., John M, Martin of Otiala, Fla., John V. Wright of Washington, D. C., and Joseph B Helskel) of Mem phis. Some of these served also In jhe Confederate army, among them being General Pryor, Colonel Martin, Colonel Tibbs and General Hetskell. Some have held high public station since the w«r T Jodgw Pryor was on the New York Supreme bench for many years, and ha* been promineiu In the social life of the State and city. Messrs Col lar, Goode and Bell have served in the Congress at Washington. Mr. Colyar Is a well known ex journalist, and is the author of a life of Andrew Jackson. Judge Pryor was In the National Con gress from 1853 to 1881, through tbtf second half of Pierce’s presidency and the whole of Buchanan's. These arc alt the living members of the Confederate Congress whom tbe writer of this article has been able to trace out, though it is possible that one or two have eluded Ida search.

It is very important to have the land well pulverized and smooth: pack it down well with roller or some kind of board or poll drag. You should run a cultivator or disc over this every 10 days or less time, following it with roller or drag. This roller or drag brings the moisture up near the surface in dry weather and keeps It there.
