Washington, Sept. 24.?Prevention - by State law of all cotton planting in 1915, in order to insure the sale of iC this year's crop at the ordinary profit, is favored by Senator John Sharp a Williarns. The complete eradiction e of the boll weevil is another benefit B that will result, Senator Williams !f thinks. The Mississippi senator is a i, member of the committee which reported that supreme court precedents 7 show there would be no federal obk" jection to such a State tax. It is perfectly practicable, he says, to make . it a crime punishable by a fine and imprisonment if any cotton is raised. K mi i . i ine pian is oold surgery .to remedy a desperate case, Senator Williams says, and is not to be taken as pre^ cendent. If cotton were forced to r even 16 or 18 cents it would start a ^ half dozen countries to raising the c staple. The reason for the limited cotton production of the world is that ^ the United States can raise cheap 18 cotton at a profit, it is pointed out. e _ g Volunteer students have gone out e to twenty countries as missionaries. 1- One thousand seven hundred thirtyj nine have gone to China and one thous e tand one hundred thirty-three to Japan. i .4, > f < , . i ; '* . r: , r U# ! r a THE COW AND HER T5KODUCT. j Clemson CoU^ie Weekly Notes Fot Farmer and Dairyman. (These notets arc prepared weekly by the Dairy Division of Clemson College. which will be glad to answer any questions relative to dairing.) The dairy cowls products are not affected l\v wars in Europe or elsewhore. Cast is Uilwnys to be had for milk and clean butter. It has been estimated that a dairyman or stockman who has not a silo can afford to pay as high as ten per ceoit interest con money needed to build one. The good dairy cow needs no defense. She i's a willing worker and ,i profit maker. She asks ?io special favors and, given fair chance, she v.*i 14 more th in pay her way. Ky*?ry farmer will adjust his barn I work to suit his convenience hut he should aim at regularity in all things. To delay either feeding or milking will affect the milk flow. It is a good plan, when removing i fit !

A farmer who has a barn full of profitable dairy cows and a well tilled silo will not be as much disturbed this winter by the European war as will .same others. There is nothing ; that can cut oil" the demand for dairy products. About one-sixth of the total food of the .average family is furnished by | milk and .its products, which will give some idea of the importance of the dairy cv?w in the economic system. The ^usefulness of the average' dairy cow does not cover a period of . more than eight years. The breeding of dairy cattle must, therefore, be a permanent part of the progressive dairyman's business. The chief things to look for in selecting a dairy bull are individual characteristics and the producing records of his dam and grand dams. Successful dairy herds are not built by gue&s work and this is a line of business where blood is sure to tell. Three fundamentals of every good dairy herd are .the pure bred bull, the' Babcock tester ;and the milk scales.; Some large fortunes have been erected on these Three foundation stones. Often a high 'producing cow does not receive enough .of the right kind; of feed for her meeds and in this, 'case her milk yftdld will gradually decline to the level ?or which food is aivailable. By feeding the raw materials of the farm to dair^y <cattle, .one makes and sells high prioed products and at the same time faaepe on tthe farm nearly all the fertilizing jnateriaLs put into the cropa.

He was immediately carried to the office of Dr. E. C. L. Adams, where he received medical attention. It was discovered 1 that his skull had been fractured. May Close Sea.

The diversion attempted in Lorraine proving ineffectual, the Germans made a fierce drive in the Woevre district, notheast of Verdun. The object no doubt to cut off the army opcrating* around Nancy, but the Germans already had tried to make an opening between Verdun and Toul. besieging Troyon at the same time. The maneuver constitutes a grave menace to the allies, resisting desperately and thus far repulsed attacks with heavy losses. That the Germans were losing hcav ily on their right is also attested by the constant arrival of prisoners and wounded. Many automobiles were seen with wounded, both German and allies, passing through the streets. The steady progress of the allies left fortified confidence there.

Peronne Occupied. The allies advanced considerably along their western wing, occupying the town of Peronne despite desperate insistence, according to the official announcement of the French war department. At the eastern end of the battle line in France there was heavy fighting on the River Mouse, the allies alternately advancing and retiring- 1 The following official announcement was ma<le in Paris: 1 "First. On our left wing, between 1 the River Somme and the River Oise our troops have advanced in the di- ; rection of Roye. A detachment occupied Peronne and held this position ' in spite of a spirited attack on the ( part of the enemy. 1 "Between the River Oise and the !

Our people will undoubtedly turn out en masse if the weather is at all favorable. GERMANS LACK EOOI) Subsistence One of Their Great Problems. The German retirement in the western theatre of the war evidently was due largely to the subsistence problem, with which the army had been wrestling, owimr to tlm runiil ;irl vaii cc. Authoritative information, describing conditions at the front, indicates that the troops subsisted largely on food that they commandeered, and, in many cases, lived on dry bread for more than a week. This especially was the case with those advancing by way of Belgium who were obliged to fall back farther than those in the south. It is learned also that for a time the ammunition was not sufficient. HIGH TARIFF LIKE WAR. Both Put Fp the Price of Sugar?Rea son of the Present Big Advance is a World-wide Condition Re suiting from War. Washington, D. C., Sept. 28.?The war causes the high prices because of the probability that the strife abroad will greatly reduce the sugar output of European countries and because of the certainty that Great Britain cannot rely this year upon supplying its needs from the beet-sugar growers of Germany; Austria-Hungary is second, Russia is third and France fourth. The world's supply centers and requirements have been very even ly balanced for a long time. Now one of the largest sources of sunnlv i? V nt _ rr ?' *" V"V ofF. Great Britain has become a bidiler for the Cuban and Hawaiian sugars, which, along with the beet and cane sugar produced in this country, have supplied the large consumption of the United States. Recently the American Sugar Refining Co., (Sugar Trust) issued this statement, explaining the increase of Ihe price of sugar: "This company realizes the difficulties which have arisen by reason of the phenomenal rise in the price of sugar. The situation is so unusual as to occasion universal comment, but the rise is easily explained, and we ilesire to make you, and through you to such of our customers as are interested, the following statement: " 'In the first place, let us make it dear to you that this company sells less than forty per cent of the refined *11 gar used in the United States, and, secondly, that it does not own an acre if sugar land and does not produce a sound of raw sugar. It is entirely dependent for its supply upon the growers of cane sugar of Porto Rico, Cuba Hawaii, the Philippines, Java, and olh jr countries. " 'In normal times Europe has a )eet crop producing each year about light million tons of refined sugar. For example, the European countries, ncluding those now at war, produced luring the last campaign the foilowng amounts of sugar: Country Tons icrmany 2,788,000 Austria 1,710,000 'Vance 800,000 Russia 1,750,000 lelgium 280,000 dolland 280,000 )ther cuntries 790,000 Total 8,254,000 To Run in 1916.

Russia agai ns*. the Austrians lias been les uiyhi of to some extent in the public i.'.t: ;%os^, on account of the lkrc< lighting going on between German and ti e Krcnch and English. It is now a. parent that Russia has practically finished Austria. With the dead lock that is going on between the armies of the allied nations and Germany is causing delay, Russia is now free to turn hard against Germany and there is no apparent reason why she may not easily turn the tables against Germany and result in the complete defeat and utter route of the Germans. This was the trend of affairs the latter part of last week. A news dispatch from London said: While the virtual deadlock bet we* n the armies of the allies and Germany in the western war continues, from the east comes news which here is taken to show that Russia has almost completed the first stage of what may be considered one of the most colossal operations ever undertaken by a military power. The fall of the Austrian forces of Jaroslau virtually completes the investment of Rrezemysl, so far as lines of communication are concerned. Even the continued occupation of CraNnv by Austrian and German forces has not aided in that junction of Austrian and German armies which is necessary to keep Russia from overrunningGalicia and pushing the armies of Austria back to the ridge of the Carpathians. iiy ner conquest in Galicia, Russia now controls the greatest supply of' gasolene in Europe. This product is. of utmost importance to Russia because of her necessity for motor trans portation. Huge Wedge Moving. The Russian movement is now described as a huge wedge, the right line of which extends roughly from Libau, on the Baltic, along the railroad line to Warsaw. The Russian general, Rennenkampf is guarding this line. It protects the Russian sources of supply and prevents any out-flanking movement against the the Russian army of attack:, whirhi already, according to news in London*, is beginning to operate in the direction of Poson and Breslau in Germany. The left of the line rests on Warsaw, from which point railroads taps the rich and populous districts extending, to Odessa. The occupation of Galicia links up the Warsaw railroad system and is regarded in London as insuring both supplies and reinforcementsfor the attacking army. That the stage is nearly set for the attack is seen in the news that the* Germans are reinforcing their line near Poscn, even abandoning their position against Gen. Rennenkampf. Not only have the Russians cut off Austria's supply of gasoline, hut the ban on the exportation of coal to Austria may be followed, it is held 'acre, by a similar measure with regard to gasolen?. This would virtually derive Austria and her ally of this very necessary product for their automobile transport and aerial service. Remarkable Rapidity. With all the necessary motor transport, together with absolute command of her few railroads no longer threatened by invaders, English observers expect Russia to continue to move with that rapidity which has in the past amazed military experts. It had been predicted that on account of lack of railroad facilities Russia would take six months to get as many men in the Held as she has already stationed along the line of this great wedge in two months' time. Combined Montengrin and Servian forces are said today to be in occupation of the entire southeast section of Bosnia and Herzgovina.

In Belgium defenders and invaders hold their relative positions without change but many reports are being transmitted to England that the Germans are feverishly entrenching along their line of communications.
