DECEMBER 7, 1DJ1 . Honest criticism is worthy of serii ous consideration. Mr. Carbcry, in commenting upon our article urging a cannery and asking for farmers to 1 plant with that in view, makes the point that, in its experimental stage no farmer should plant more than one acre in truck to be canned, lie says it rs better to have many farmers plant each one acre, and bringing in the! product at different times, is much better than having a few farmers plant many acres, and thus overdoing it in the very start. Mr. Carbery advocates being cautious, and we heart-! ily agree with him. His criticism is just. It transpires that Union County is undergoing precisely the same experiences that every county, so far. has undergone with the invasion of tho; boll weevil. Union County is running true to form. Some people say the1 holl Wppvi! mvth will fir* rw* in the Piedmont section, cannot be successfully fought, and many other statements that are untrue, or in large degree, untrue. But there is one mean j streak that is showing up: Clemson College, the Agricultural Department and the agricultural papers have unit ed in giving advice, advice gained by experience and years of experiment. The newspapers, trying to help the farmers, have been passing on this information. Now comes the "Smart, j Aleck" and says: "Newspapers are) giving the farmer a lot of fool ad-1 vice." The truth is, the newspapers i are not giving advice; they are merely passing on the information given from reliable sources. And th?-f;tri"n? ers will do well to hee<J tne information given. it is a right funny old world, is this. Some Union people go to Sparer* . tanburg to shop; some Spartanburg! people go to Atlanta to shop; some j Atlanta people go to New York to snap; some New lork people ro u i Paris to shop. And so it Roes. We! are always seeinp something better a little further alonR the line. It al- i ways has been thus, and perhaps always will. Those who ro do so not because they can save money, for they probably pay more. It is human na- j ture to discount your own advantage.and to imaRine the other man a wax from home has Rreater advantaRcs. After all, it may not be altogether bad. The worst feature about it is that when we take our money to some distant place and there put it into! circulation we are but Rood missionaries, for we are buildiiiR our neighbor's schools, churches, streets, road and parks. True, we are in iusi that degree neglecting our own streets, schools, churches and road:-. But, most of us do not care so much about that. We are too selfish to canabout anythiriR save our own persona1 desire. You say the enforcement of prohil i tion is a failure? Have you ever done anything to make it succeed? ^ mi say blind tigers are on every creek, in every hollow and many back yards? llave you ever reported a single one?1 Vriii u'it* i-mi eon nvintr /1 t'i i n L-< 11 moil v O...T .......jr ... V... ..V .. ..._.. . Have you continued to take your own 'toddy"? Ho you speak slightingly! of the prohibition law? Do you harp on personal liberty? Do you criticize the enforcement officers? Do you jestingly refer to your own proclivities for strong drink? Do you seek by word and action to bring reproach ** upon the law? If so, how can you ex-, pect any better results? Have you stored away in your home, 'for, medicinal purposes" a quart, two quarts, five gallons? How can you expect a law to be a complete suc, cess when you, yourself, have so littb ! regard for it? All these church mem t bers that talked so volubly in favor o: 1 prohibition, did they mean prohibition * i < for the other fellow, but not for themselves ? We are now face to face! If with fact, not fancy. We have passed v the talking stage; it is now the stage " of experience. The good people should g encourage the officers, give them mor- j 1 support, and talk for prohibition f f they really desire prohibition. What ncentive hbs un officer to enforce a aw that you constantly deride? IIo\\ an you expect your son to favor pro- b libition when you teach him by wofd ^ ,nj act to scorn it? We believe it 1 k'ould not be six weeks before Union ounty would be rid of practically all | he blind tigers and illicit distillerie- < ! f the good citizens would talk right 1 ind act right. When we stand by ou: aw enforcement officers and show our letcrmination to back them faithfully ve will have a satisfactory enforce- i nent of the law. lA?t us seek to do his and reap the happy reward. ;p| Our cat says advice prompted l>\ I > is'uiess is seldom sound. * Our cat says sweet adversity tastes j bitter. * Our <:it ? .?*? if .x... ? little we will all have some. * * Our cat says it is better to be stubborn than without any convictions whatever.

MOTHERJAVE IT Virginia Lady Suffered With Achej and Pains Until Mother Began Giving Her Cardui. Dublin, Va.?Miss Mary Alice I Hughett residing on Route S, near ! here, recently told a visitor of her , Interesting experience with Cardui. Miss Hughett said: "I had been sufferlng for some time with painful . . . I was pale, didn't feel like going. Would Just drag around, and couldn't rest to do any good. I would suffer once a month with my back, sides and head. My limbs would ache aud I didn't know what to do, but I knew I ; I must do something, for I didn't get well by letting it run on. "My mother Is a believer In Cardu^ 1 for she saw what It did for others as ! 1 well as herself, so she began giving i It to me. "It wasn't long before I saw a change. It was Just what I needed. It regulated me. I began to eat and sleep, and the pain stopped. "Cardui Is without doubt the best female tonic made, and I am glad 1 can recommend It to others." If suffering with symptoms such as I Miss Hughett mentions, or other all- ; ments peculiar to women, why not be- ] gin Cardui at once?

In- si lependent. j -1 'ederal Budget For Fiscal Year Washington, Dec. G.?The federal >udget for the fiscal year 1923?the rst to be compiled?shows estimated xpenditures of $3,605,754,727, a derease of $402,167,639 as compared to he estimated outgo for the fiscal year 922, ending next June 30, and a reliction of $2,032,285,962 from the acual outlay in the fiscal year 1921. Estimated receipts for 1923 are laced at $3,338,182,750, leaving an .pparent deficit of $167,571,977. In ransniitting the budget to congress oday, President Harding says, "Ways ire provided for the relatively easy djustnient" of the discrepancy beween income and outgo "without add d taxation." As one means he rec>mniends legislation directing the rekit t ion of the naval supply nccount by >100,000,000. Actual appropriations asked of congress for the various federal departments and agencies for 1923 total $3,'24.875,592, exclusive of postoffice department. This represents a reducion of $122,806,310 from the original stimated as presented to the budget jureau, it is stated, but is approxin'itely $27,000,000 more than the ap roprintions for this fiscal year. Explaining the $280,879,134 exces? <i csumaiea expenditures in iyzi over the appropriations asked for, Budget Bureau officials explain that some of the funds actually to be put out will he carried over in continuing appropriations and by other means. They say that appropriations for a given year do not accurately reflect actual expenses for that year, pointing cut hat while the appropriations for this iseal year were $3,197,807,962, the es imated actual outgo will exceed this -mm by approximately $770,000 000. Of the total estimated expenditures for 1923, approximately $2,900,000,00(1 is to pay for past wars and to keep up he lighting arms of the government leaving only about $600,000,000 foi he peace-time pursuits of the federal establishment. The estimate for thi army and the navy is $801,636,107, ji reduction of $66,305,299 as compared with this fiscal year and $956,352,741 ?: compared with the fiscal year 1921 The navy estimate of $431,754,000 t is explained, does not take into account any possible reductions thai might be brought about as a result oi he arms conference, the total includ iig funds for continuing work on thi ships of the 1916 program, most ol which would bp scrapped under th< proposal made to the conference bj the American government. Accompanying the budget*as sent v: onurross is ft (l^i nilnr] ronOrf frnm Hi. rector General Dawes as to the opera tio'n of the budget bureau since its es lablishment five months ago and somu pointed comments as to means of con tinuing its efficient operation. Discussing the reception of the budget bj congress, Geenral Dawes says: "It is Co be expected that since th( preliminary estimates have been madt under pressure by the executive foi proper retrenchment, where consistent with efficiency, it will not be neces ary, as heretofore, for congress to make radical cuts upon esttimates of he budget with any uncertainty as to what will be the result as it effects efficiency. The President of the United States, when he sends the budget to congress is presumed to send it with ill the reductions in expenditures which can be effected without due impairment of governmental business processes. In the preparation of the budget he has had at work an authorized agency in the bureau not only in ascertaining the reasonableness of desired appropriations, but in continually imposing pressure upon the departments for a reduction in the estimates wherever proper and possible." General Dawes says he feels that he estimate for expenditures fot 1023, upon which the budget is based will not be increased except through Appropriations initiated by congress r by the executive as a result of mergency or unforeseen -conditions Arising after the preparation of the budget." Reiterating his recommendation that congress immediately repeal all >utstanding continuous appropriations ind "revolving funds," General Dawes cys the method of appropriating money heretofore followed "has resulted in a condition of things undci which it is almost impossible for either the executive, congress, or the secetary of the treasury to have before hem a true picture of the fiscal condition of the government at any particular time." "The whole habit of making continuous appropriations to which the government has been committed in the past," he adds, "is only an encouragement to a lack of scrutiny of public work by the head of the department under which it is carried on, and an encouragement to shiftlessness and arelessness on the part of the suborlinates more directly concerned in it. This system of preparing the budget will confine vhe attention of the execu i\/o r\ f /i/intrr/icu o rwl a f fVin nuKlio f/? he one great important question, to vit, the relation of the money actually o be spent by the government to the noney actually to be received by the government in any given year, all it3 mtstanding obligations and indefinite (.mmitments, projects and enterprises osidered. This will enable congress, .vith more intelligence, to determine it any time both the necessity for rerenchment and the ability of the government to engage in additional proects to be initiated by congress outlide of the budgetary provisions."
