FRIDAY, MAY 19, 1922. We expect to firul the whole euvtl f iled with the i/?*e:it. new thii.tr?wire less telephony, in an incredibly short time. Won't it be tine to pull clown the receiver and not be under the necessity of having a tilt with central? No doubt "central" has troubles of his own (or, should we say "her own?") But the helpless fellow at the calling station has his perplexities, too. "Line's busy!" Certainly "central" cannot help that. But the beauty of the wireless situation is that tin re is no line to gel busy. Attain, it may be hoped that 'visiting" over the line will be a thing of the past when the wireless conies fully into its own. We now hear it rumored that we will soon be able to see as well as hear the individual with whom we are soon to hold convoisation by means of the new and startling wonder.

The cotton shows a good stand and looks well. It is astonishing how much work the farmers did during the short dry spell. It will be well to find out at once the best method of combatting the boll weevil. County Agent Wood or Mr. Browning can give sane and sensible advice. Do rot take it for granted that the boll weevil is going to <1 > no damage this year. Prepare to meet him. , A CUE AM COLLECTINC AdENC^ Mr. Roland Turner, chief ngricul tural agent of the Southern Railway, addressed a goodly number of l.usi- ( in ss men in the rooms of the Young | Men's Husiness League last night anci ] a gat hiring of farmers and business 1 nx n in the Rialto Theatre building .it ' : 1 o'clock today, Mr. Turner is n;> stranger to Union, he having visited , I nior. more than a "tar as.ro, upon th< invitation of the chamber of com 1 nierce and agriculture. The former 1 meeting was held in the courthouse, t end was in the days of the beginning of the fight to meet the coming of the ) boll weevil. The address last night i and to lay was along imilar lines, and '' varied very little from the outline of tlx address delivered here early in last jear; in fact, there is no new thine { ! > prt ent. The agi .cultural depart < mei.t, C'lcmson College, every farm j);i- {i per and many great industrial insti- 1 tut ions such as the Southern Railway, have been outlining these identical v plans for the past ten yiars. This s s by no means a di paragement of the ' speeches of Mr. Tnr.a r. His ahilit" * to div.-s in new gain, n's the same ' v '.!f 1 tru lis, his splendid ;11?i 1 ity as i u ; iatft.rm speaker and his wide experi- () < ru'c in pro motinn: the agricultural d> J> velopr/.e;;' of the South unite to make * him a speaker who commands att'-n tion. Mr. Turner's < < ming to Union (j this time was brought about through a the efforts of Nichol.-on Bank & Trust Co. This institution, through its di- ? rectors and officers has for some time J 1 een contemplating the establishment . j of a cream collecting agency here, nthus hoping to stimulate the growing of dairy cattle and, indirectly buildsi ing up the soil of the farms of the f( county. This idea is by no means a it new one, that through the raising of is dairy cattle, selling only the butter w fat, and allowing the rest of the prodt< net from the dairy to find its way back into the soil, has been taught by every farm demonstration agent, by the hi agricultural department, by Clemson ' ' P< College and every county newspaper in the land for the past ten years. But m people are slow to respond to even b] plainly demonstrated facts. The idea h< of collecting cream is a newer idea, and provides a way to find an outlet r the butter from the farm. Now J ;at creameries are springing: Up in iriou3 cities in the state, there has jveloped a strong demand for cream, id the product can readily be dis- 1 jsed of. The necessary expense of equipment >r the agency established by NicliIson Hank & Trust Co., through the irectors and friends of the bank, has een donated by them. The agency ill begin functioning in a few days, t is to be hoped that the farmers will ooperate in the move, and thus do he one thing that will help themelves more than any other. Our cat says it is alright to reach a hasty conclusion it' you deliberate before at ling upon it. * * Our cat says (5,000 more tomato plants 1-Tt iiis tomato bed yesterday. ? ? * Our eat says any farmer who failed to get h:s plants f r setting out his aero of tomatoes can get all the plants I c m'f.is by c.lling upon the old cat. * * * Our iat says it' the hundred acres of tomatoes should average only five toils to tit" acre the total will be 501) t< ns I,(100,000 pounds. That will do for a start. Our cat says one man cannot win against overwhelming odds, but even ir. defeat, he triumphs, provided his cause is just. Fighting Fires in Mines Slow Work Anaconda, Montana, May 13.? Fighting fires in mines is a slow, tedious job and since the dawn of mining has been considered almost a hopeless undertaking. Rich mines in many parts of the world have been burning for generations, their rich stores of wealth being guarded from hitntk nf mnn Kir o ho n*?inr ....... .. Wi. deadly gases and rock walls white with the heat of fires smoldering beyond. Hut underground fires no longer are to be considered unquenchable, as in the Butte district a process of lire fighting has been developed by the Anaconda Copper Mining company which is salvaging an ore body of tremendous extent. Fires that nave been burning for 15 years in three connecting mines are being smothered under a million tons f liu d. By the end of 1022 two million oris of metalliferous ore, containing, iccording to experts, at least 80,000 ons of copper, once more will be ac essible. A great part of this wealth already las come within the reach of the liiners and not only that, but a large irea which heretofore has been in iccessible because of poisonous gases low is being worked. The process of fighting the suberranean fire as developed is not omplirnted. It is an adaptation of m idea evolved in ls>x-l by fire .ightrs at a coal mine in the Schuylkill egion of Pennsylvania. Sand, dc'om posed rock and other materials vhich came originally from the .topes and were discarded as tunings in the process of copper exraction, imply have been turned >ack into the iire area. Water, I'hich in many eases has proved its scicssn-. - as an extinguisher of uncrground fires, is us?d for transportation. It convoys the tailings in ho for.a of s:lt down to the fire re ions, 1 200 to 2,200 feet underground here the soup-like lime fills abanoned drifts, cross cut . and stopes nd lit rally smothers the fire. Through uncomplicated the task f extirc ui. hing the liros in the Butte istriet has been difficult and long, I eginning in the fall of 1917 and connuing until now, employing 250 ien on a 21 hour shift. A black-headed albatross followed a leamship across the North Pacific >r 3,000 miles without once furling s wings. It started from a small land near Japan and when the ship as 1,900 miles from the nearest Alasan port, it turned abruptly and flew ward the west. A helium-filled dirigible is easier to andle in the air. According to gov nment experts, who have been ex:?rimenting, the helium-filled ship is * eadier and moves with greater moentum than an airship filled with ydrogen. Helium gas is twice as ravy as hydrogen and has 92 per cent ' its lifting power. Printers' ink pays. Peasants of Famine District P Refuse to Eat Crow E Buzuluk, Samara Privince, Russia, 11 May 12. Rating: crow seems literal- E ly to have been the one thing the B famine-r.t xicken peasants of the Vol- R ga have refused to do. During the E worst pel iods of the hunger suffering, when eats, dogs, clay and even more R ghastly l'ood substitutes have been H greedily devoured, the country has R been full of big, black and gray 6 crows. I So bold arc these scavenger birds R and apparently so unmolested by even H the hungriest peasants, that some of I them even perch upon and peck at E meat supplies laden in sleds for E transport from the railway stations E to the villages. a Some of them may have been eaten, R but the correspondent saw literally E hundreds of them at every place his R train stopped from Samara on the E way to Orenburg. They were the fattest creatures in the famine area. Peasants with whom the correspondent talked on this apparent anomalous condition, in a i-egion where one instance of cannibalism had been reported, admitted that crows might be as good to eat as dogs or cats, but advanced various vague i*easons R as to why these birds had not been E slaughtered for food. Ij Some said there were no guns or B ammunition to shoot them and that they were extremely hard to trap or B catch. Others said they were "un clean." n Irish Republican | Advertising Campaign Dublin, May 12.?A campaign of small advertising handbills is the latest effort of Irish republicans in their fight against the Free State in-aiy wiin me ltriusn government. The campaign mainly is directed fl against Michael Collins and Arthur Griffith. , "They say the Treaty Brings Us Peace?Does It Look Like It?" queries one of the posters which has been displayed pi eminently as a re suit of recent disorders. "Anti-Republicans claim that The treaty entitles Ireland to admission in the League of Nations. India has a representative in the League of Nations. Is India free?" asks another handbill. Another of the series of more than 5 50 posters says: "Since he sighed a the treaty Michael Collins has made f 95 speeches, given 65 press inter- 1 views and written 45 newspaper ar- 1 tides. If he made 135,000,000 t speeches and wrote 48,000,000 newspaper articles, he could not alter ' this fact: That under the Treaty the King of England is King of Ireland." Other handbills urge voters to vote against the treaty in the coming election. Among the arguments used are such statements as the following: "Every town and village in Ireland will be another Limerick if Collins tries to introduce his new army and police. "If Griffith and Collins win the nlec tions the worst kind of wax*?namely, civil war?will destroy the country. i "If l)e Valora wins there will never be another shot fired in Ireland. "When the Irish people elect republicans a new treaty will be signed that will bring true peace. "Therefore every vote for the Free State is a vote for War." Read your yellow label.

Cut glass is more than one-third le?a. There is also lead in your overshoes, automobile tires, fountain pen, pipe stem, and in many other articles containing rubber. But the most important use of lead is its corrosion into white-lead?the principal factor in good paint. In . fact, the quality of any paint depends on the quantity of white-lead it contains. We sell white-lead of the highest quality under the "name and trademark of Dutch Boy White-Lead !for both interior and exterior use. Any color you wish can be obtained.
