The census bureau has given out the names of the fifty counties in the w -!e country that are the richest pn ducers of agricultural products Ir.c'uded in the number are four South Ca >lina conties: Anderson, Spartan br>?, Orangeburg and Marlboro. Th; n South Carolina, one of the smalle tates, should have four of the bc.s producing counties is a record o* which we should be proud. After all,. South Carolina is a right good stal' in which to live. Mr. R. C. Ilamer, president of th? South Carolina Cotton Association will attend the meeting of the Unio: County Cotton Association to be hole in the courthouse here tomorrow Wednesday, at 11 o'clock. Mr. Han:e; will speak upon the subject of cooperative marketing. He should b? heard by all farmers who expect to raise cotton another year.

Come to tiv meeting tomorrow and hear the nd dress of Mr Hamer. Greed usually oversteps itself, and we have just such a result now transpiring in the cotton industry. In spite of the small crop, the rapidly opening markets, and the revival of business throughout the country, cotton has gone from 21 cents two weeks ago to 15 cents yesterday. Merchants all over the South aie beginning to cancel orders. They know full well that with lower priced cotton there will come ultimately a lower price on goods. They do not propose to be made the scape goat along with the farmer. And they are right. They are sending in cancellation of orders. This in turn will stop manufacture and slow down the wheels of industry. But it illustrates the point. The manufacturers cannot hope to get away with it. If raw material, such as cotton and hides is to go for a song, the goods will have to follow ^ al- I i- - r A 1? ^UIV, Ul rciiuilll 111 Vile llallUn UI lilt." manufacturers.

Its agents lock up people, try and execute them, if they see fit, according to popular information. As there are no police in Russia, it devolves upon this organization to keep the peace md, when necessary, control the 'led army. While traveling through the er i-e length of Russia, The Associ *ec| Press correspondent was shadow d. from city to city, by these agent .ut never bothered by them. As i Turkey, their mission was poss b: o protect the correspondent and no involve the Soviet government ir. fresh complications regarding its treatment of Americans. That the Cheka keeps order is evi dent from the fact htat there is a' present order everywhere in Russia save for bands of robbers among th' Don and Kuban Cossacks, calliif themselves the Green army and now and then holding up trains in the ic gion between the Black and Caspian seas, along the line from Rostov t Petrovsk. While passing through this regioi the coirsepondent learned of one good deed of the Cheka, the details of which indicate how frightfully Russia's people have suffered from thei evolutions. Commissaire Lander, e he Kiev Cheka was spending th summer for his health at the beautif watering place of Kislovodsk, one one of the most fashionable of th North Caucasus baths. One nigh there came to his house a young man and woman who told of the sudden disappearance of a certain Countess, a pretty girl of 20 belonging to one of the most famous of the old Russian nobility. Lander stai*ted an investigation and by morning had found the girl but in a dreadful condition. It developed that while sitting in one of the paiks of the town the evening previous two men had placed her under arrest in the name of the Cheka and a "white" ,spy and kept her prisoner in a lonely house. Lander put at once all the inachin ery of the Cheka at work, had 61' the trains watched and by night had arrested two bandits who were iden tified as the criminals. While the men were being returned to Kislovodsk, they leaped from the trnin and escaped. Lander# after 12 days of search again arrested them in Rostov, where they were at once executed. Lander is now spending his own money in an effort to aid the girl as she and her family are without resources. Against this good deed thousands of evil ones arc told. According to one of these stories the Cheka searched the home of a university professor and physician, Dr. Floriansky, a year ago in Kiev and found in his desk a forgotten list, dated 1908. of 43 mem hers of a patriotic organization, many of whom were notable professors ami physicians. The Cheka accused the physician of counter-revolution, arrested all the men named on the list still in Kiev and shot all of them. WOOLEN GOODS I give great care in cleaning.

Do Not Run Engine I In Closed Garage New Haven, Conn., Nov. 12.?Running the engine of a car to warm it c up, in a small closed garage, is one r of the most dangerous things that a s man can do, according to Prof. Yan- c dell Henderson, of Yale University, t It is almost as dangerous as blow- t ing cut the gas before going to bed i 'rofessor Henderson says. ? "Tho exhaust gas from an engine ' ind city illuminating gas both con- I ain large proportions of carbon mon- ] xide," says Professor Henderson. "A i small car produces as much carbon ; nonoxide in a minute as a gas burner vill flow in three or four hours, and \ la^gc car produces even more of his gas. "These facts have been shown re ently by Mr. A; C. Fieldner and his associates of the U. ,S. Bureau of Mines. Professor Henderson consulting physiologist of the Bureau of Mines las shown that if the exhaust gas is diluted with enough fresh air it is irac' ically harmless. Three or four i volumes of carbon nxmoxidc in 10,000 timer, as much fresh air can be breath ed for an hour or more without any ill eifect, he says. / "But six volumes of the gas may caus" a slight headache, nine volumes a severe headache and nausea, and 15 or 20 volumes in 10,000 of air will produce unconsciousness and even death," 4b states. ^ A car produces one cubic foot or more of carbon monoxide per minute, and Professor Henderson calculates thta-in a small closed garage (10 by '0 by 20 feet) the car, when warming ip, contaminates the air to a deadly concentration within throo or four minutes. "Many people lose their lives every winter by running their engine with the garage doors and windows closed,'' he points out. "The only safe way is to open the garage doors before startng the engine, or to slip a piece of hose over the exhaust and so deliver the gas out of doors. "These investigations we carried out for the New York and h s Jersey runnel Commission which are contmcting a vehicular tunnel under the Hudson river. The* tunnel will b<'arge enough for two lines of passenper cars or trucks each way, and will relieve automobilists of the de lay involved in crossing the river on he ferries. Elaborate plans are being made by the engineers for properly ventilating the tubes to keep them clear of smoke and gas." The standard for maximum concen ration of carbon monoxide in air for -.afety recommended by Professor Henderson has been adopted for the tunnel, and driving through the tunnel will not involve appreciably more risk due to bad air thdflT driving along Fifth Avenue in New York City on a crowded afternoon. "Many people believe that gasoline vapor is the cause of the unpleasant feelings that they sometimes experience in a large badly ventilated public garage," says Dr. Henderson. "Dr. portance not only to automobilists but _1 Al i. ll A A J 1 snow inai tnese symptoms are not aue to the gasoline vapor but to the carbon monoxide gas which results when the gasoline vapor is exploded in the cylinders of an engine. N "Carbon monoxide combines with the red coloring matter of the blood and this prevents the blood from carrying an adequate amount of oxygen from the lungs to the brain and other parts of the body. But we find that soon after the affected person comes into fresh air again, the carbon monoxide begins to leave the blood. The restoration of the blood to its normal condition can also be assisted by inhaling oxygen. "These investigations are of imalio to everyone who takes care of his own furnace. If enough air is not supplied to a coal fire, large amounts of carbon monoxide are formed and some of this gas may leak out into the air of the house. They are of importance also to city firemen, for the smoke of a burning* buildinb nearly always contains large amounts of carbon monoxide. It is not the stinging, visible vapors which overcome the men trying to enter the burning building, but the invisible, odorless carbon monoxide contained in the smoke. "In numerous instances firemen in different cities have tried to use army gas masks in fighting city fires, not knowing that these masks do not project against the deadly carbon mon-?vide. As a result of the investigations of the chemists and physiologists of the Bureau of Mines and the Chemical Warfare Service, masks are now being developed to protect against carbon monoxide."

The resolutions declare Lhe movement one of such vftal importance to the welfare of the state that everybody should be concerned as to its outcome. The resolutions call attention to the fact that the general assembly of the state at its last session passed resolutions endorsing the movement. Similar resolutions have been adopted by the State Fair society and many other organizations over the state. i "It seems to us," says the resolutions "that the cotton farmers' only hope for the future lies in the suc-| cessful formation of this association..' The presence of the boll weevil In this ? state is going to force him to restrict L his acreage and will greatly decrease' the production on the acreage that is J planted. How important it is then I CiiHb lie suuuia acvuic a ion piitu iui that which he does produce! This he can do through intelligent market-1 ing." In announcing the action of the committee Harry G. Kaminer, president, said: "The cotton farmer is right now confronted with some very serious problems. "He has been pretty hard up against it before, plenty of times, or, pcrhays wW should say all the time.1 He has possibly been up against it as hard as he is at present, but? "Now he stands at the cross roads. On the one hand he sees stretching out. before him, twisting and turning, rough and rutty, the old trail he has been following since the beginning. It has been a hard road and the view ahead is not encouraging. "On the other hand is a new, straight, hardsurfaccd road leading straight to the cotton mill. It is a smooth road, well kept, and in its surface is stamped -this imprint, 'Guaranteed by 80,00U satisfied users ?Approved by agricultural specialists.' . I "This new road is built on a sound busine6s-like system, as are all other highways of industry, which others arc now following to prosperity. . 1 "The new road is the South Caro-1 lina Cotton Growers' Cooperative As-' j sociatin. By means of it the farmer can, through his own hired marketing expert, go all the Way to market with: his cotton, guarding it from the losses in country damages, city crop, speculative profits, unnecessary handling costs, etc., and take home with him all of the money the spinner pays instead of the smal! part that has heretofore been his in the price and the local buyer has paid him.
