We expect to firul the whole euvtl

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.
It is interesting to note how greed

is vociferous in its denunciation oi
injustice. Hut it cannot long remain
hidden. It must needs reveal its
( raven heart and its selfish soul.
in riding ahout over tin- county Th
Times man finds a considerable acreage
planted to cotton and many fields
are already up. 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 eat says any farmer who failed
to get h:s plants f r setting out his
aero of tomatoes can get all the plants

Our iat says it' the hundred acres of
tomatoes should average only five

for a start.

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.

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."

What Makes Cut Glass So Heavy?
iLe&d b the answer. 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

can be obtained.
