‘‘That “necessity is the mother of
i'teention” has been Riven ' added
proof during the past two or three
weeks. Owing to the printers’ strike
in New York City, many magazines
have been forced to suspend publica
t’on or move their plants to other
cities. Refusing to do either, The Lit-
< rary Digest hit upon a novel idea
to issue the magazine without the aid
of type-setters. The “copy” is type
written^ a., photograph is made of the
page, and a “cut” is made of the
photograph, the printing being done
in the regular way from this “cut” or
I late. The publishers are of the Opin
ion that it will revolutionize the mag
azine printing industry and do away
with tie-ups due to strikes. The type
however, is a ^jttle harder to rea<
than regular foundry type, and we
fail to see what would prevent a tie-up
should the stenographers “get the hah

Keep on picking up the squares until

will certainly help, there is no doubt
about that. I have seen it tried in
one field right, by the side of another.
7his dusting thing that they tell you
rbbut in the newspapers,^ my-, opin

iwo farms between by farms and town
and it never did one bit of good, in fact,
the Government has never yet found
anything to get rid of them, except
to kill them with a hatchet or burn
thorn, and you can burn them wdien
You pick up the squares. I believe in
the short cotton belt you can make
a fairly good crop, because* the cot

they would in our section where we

that itheretofore impregnable network
c f defenses on which the hope of mili
tarism and autocracy depended, was
oroken. Until the last shot of the
war was fired South Carolinians lived
up to the best traditions of the State
j nd by their unwavering devotion to
cuty reflected undying glory upon
themselves unsparingly, evep of their
blood, South Carolina’s sons who vvent
forth companions in arms fought and
(ndured, suffered and triumphed not
for themselves alone. They gave
themselves, those who have returned
to us in victory and those who sleep
within the bosom of. France, to the
highest service for which the drum
Uats and the bugle notes have ever
called men to arms--that men might
still be free and that “iTfe, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness” should not
lecome a haunting memory and a bit
ter mockery.
To honor those who hared their
1 reasts and formed*a bulwark of their
1 edies against the mighty foe striking
at the heart of huniinity is to honor
ourselves. In our hearts we cherish

NO C ROP ESTIMATE TO RE
GIVEN IN COTTON RETORT
mtmi Rapfei
Depart men! Intrndn (tiling Out Cl
dition Figurm Only Fridft>\
Washington, Oct. 25.—The depart-
nent of agriculture has announced
that in the cotton report to Ik* issued
tntober 31, it will estimate the condi
tion but will not estimate the yield
rcr acre nor forecast the total pro
duction. Representative Byrnes of
t*outh Carolina, author of the resolu
tion ordering the publication of this
supplemental report, stated today that
he has been urging the department to
.nclude in the report an estimate of
*he yield per acre and the total pro
duction, so that it will be similar to J
reports of other months. He says that
the department officials claim tkat it
is impossible to comply with this re
quest because their estimates are
based on the average condition of pre-
vious years on the same date and as
no reports have been issued in pre-
Vioua years for cotton during October
that they have no basis for their esti
mate. The department states that
I rior to 1915 the reports included
tuly an estimate of eondition an<Kthe
trade will have to make its own esti
mate of total production just as it did
] rior to 1915.
