This is the Record for One Day

ALL PREVIOUSLY PAROLED
'
On Condition of Good Behavior.
?Proclamation States
That "* Docs not Apply
to Paroles Granted
With Other Condition.
On last Snturdov Governor Tllense
granted a full pnvlrn t> abovt 1500
persons whom he ha ' nvolod during
good behavior since the rear 1911. By
one stroke of his pen he gave executive
clemency to this great number
who had violated nearly every law of
the State.
This action, though it did not give
liberty to any prisoners now in the
state penitentiary nor upon the publicworks
of any of the counties, places
the pardon record of Governor Bleasc
above that established by any person
enjoying that power as a governor of
any state, according to best information
obtainable here.
In addition to this blanket pardon,
i Governor blease also granted pardons
paroles and commutations to 34 prisnnpi's
in f Vin of ?> ^ - '

This blanket pardon to an estimated '
number approximating 1,500 men and
women was worded as follows:

MIND YOUR BUSINESS'
(liy Hiram Wallace.)
I believe that the farmers; ihi alt
parts of the country paj* too^ muck attention
to other peoples?' business, and
not enough to their own.. The farmer
must understand that his farm is, a
manufacturing plant and that he is
a business man the same as any other
individual who is engaged in turning
a finished or partly finished product,
r unning therefore is a business.. It
needs attention and a lot of it if the
plant is to be efficient and the product
is ot be marketed for what it is
worth. But the farmer is not minding
his own business. He lets another

he is to receive for the output of his
plant. The fellows in the cities, the
stock-yards men, the warehouse men,
the cold-storage men, the commission
men tlie butter, milk, cheese and egg
men, these are the persons who fix
the prices the farmer is to receive and
and the prices the retailers are to pay
And you may be sure that between
these two prices there is a comfortable
profit for the man in the middle
although all that he does is to stand
there between the two extremes of
the transaction. Hut that is his business
and he is attending to it. So lie

Supose that all the farmers in each
iiisti'U't vvpro niurn 11170/I
? V V/. ^V?IK(IVM.
that they follow the plan of the Florida
or the California fruit growers.
Things would be different. Hut it is
hard to make the average farmer understand
this. He will listen to the
arguments of reformers and take a
day off to vote for this or that freak
law to prohibit something that does
not atfect him at all and that, therefore
is not his business. But he will
spend no time to come into town to at
Lend a meeting that bears directly on
his business?farming. He will vote
for a constitutional amendment to
prohibit the use of cigarettes, for instance,
when the chances are that nei
ther he nor any member of his family
uses cigarettes. So he is not minding
his own business. His business is to
raise the best grain, vegetables, fruit,
poultry or stock that he can; to see
that he is provided with a cheap and
\nd sure means of getting these products
to market and get the best possible
price at the market place. He
cannot do these things; fey acting independently.
He and his neighbor*
must get together, act together and
stick together. It may be admitted
that some farmers are awakening to
the fact that they are business men i
and are conducting their plants as if
they were business institutions. But
the great majority of these producers
are just beginning to realize that it is
only by acting in concert that the
greatest good can be accomplished.
Mr. Farmer, you who read this, are
you minding your business?

He Gets Table Napery for His

Two-thirds of tfc?'<B??t j

(By Joseph Boil d. President Hotel
Sherman* Chicn^o;)1 1
j
The problem of find ins, -now uses for
American eotton, or of piUTjnyt these ?
uses into effect is onet which the T>
American people must -iolve, if we 0
would have substantial prosperity in n
this country.
About 18 months ag r? \vhe? I was
buying furnishings and bquipaient for .
the Fort Dearborn hotel1,, my attention ^
was brought to something I never had ^
seen or heard of before4?ronton napkins
and-tablecloths or fa. Hi'giter quali-1 .y
t.v, and usable in an up^-to-dvate hotel j?
and restaurant. Tlffeee gwods were
made in Austria. ^
After considering the matter, I ^
placed my order for''be entire equipment
of tablo nnnorv frr.r- thia V?r?fol
^ ? - *;a
The cost was about 25 per cent, ot
about one-third the iost -of linen nat ^
cry. My saving on the first purchase w
was very nearly $VJ9fK t
I had forgotten all about my Diyr- n
chase until my ?rrtfiLm from Euro.vTt,
where 1 passed Isfcal summer. As s-wsn tl
as I reached ho.vie, I found the cow- tl
try greatly agitated over the eoHton w
situation. On , -ny.ery side I heard {the,
cry, "The cucton crop must be a
financed! New lists must be Ijpund d
for cotton'" f,
In a flash i ch.ere came to rjc the n
thought of my cotton naperjy nt.thft
Fort Dearh>tm hotel. h
I found^ am investigationt to nr?}\ n
great delfght and satisfaction, that P
the innovation was a greitft success, u
My housekeeper showed', my clpths
that had, been washed eve try day for
four meoths and which loofted as good
to me linen after beip^r in use for
the S4?ne length of timet. The resT [
taursw?t manager infonuasd: me that h$
never would have kpajwrn thati tjhe
napery was cotton ifr $ had', not so, iter
f<x??ed him.
At a meeting of (Chicago hotel men,
I called the attenti?H> of my colleagues
to these goods mmi they- were &U surprised
and pleased. Many off them
decided then and there to substitute
cotton for linen as soon as their existing
stock was exausted.
| I announced that I should continue
I to use cotton cloth at the Fort Dearborn
hotel, and I shall adopt its use
at the hotel Sherman as soon as
practicable.
Early this month my old friend
R. D. Bowen, of Paris, Texas, called
on me to get from me such information
as I had on the subject. The
result of the interview was that I
agreed to go to Houston and Galveston,
Texas, to address the Texas and;
the Southern Interstate Hotel Associations
and to give them my experience
with cotton napery.
On December 9, I addressed the
hotel men in convention at the Hotel
Galvez, Galveston. I showed them the
samples of cotton cloths that had
been in use nearly eight months, and
others that had been used only two
months. They were surprised and of j
course were delighted to find that not
only could they save about two-thirds
of the old cost of the table napery. i
I
but that they also could help the cot- (
ton industry very materially. ^
Since I have taken up this matter (
I have discovered that-the goods, such (
as I have been using, are being made |
in this country, in a large mill in |
North Carolina, and sold through ad
prominent commission house in New |,
York. I have corresponded with the
owner of {he mill, and am assured
that he can reproduce the foreign ar- ,
i tide exactly, and in large quantities,
and can increase the production if
there is a demand for it.
That cotton napory can be substituted
for the linen heretofore used is,!
' to my mind, beyond question.
What we want now is concerted
action nad cooperation.
If every hotel, restaurant, dining
' ' 1
car system, boarding house, hospital,!
, and private family in the United
. States from now on will purchase cot[
ton tablecloths and napkins, and also
towels and other house hold articles
that have heretofore been made of
linen, it is my judgment that from
400,000 to r>00.000 bales of cotton will
be used up annually, and thus a new
and enlarged outlet be furnished for
the raw cotton.
May Abandon Capital.
Constantinople, regarded by the sillies

tail an account of unsettled conditions
at Constantinople, where it is said!

FARM CREDIT SYSTEM NEEDED.
Farm wealth of the United States,
estimated at $40,000,000,000, should
)e the basis on which the prosperity
)f the country rests permanently, yet
here is no adequate law under which
o finance the farm. That was the
condition described at St. Joseph, Mo.,
ast week at the Interstate Agricultural
Congress by W. C. Brown, former
president of the New York Central
Railroad.
"The establishments of farm credits
is one of the most important questions
now before the nation," Mr.
Brown said. "The farmer is paying
twice the interest he should. Long
time loans at a low rate would enable |
the farmers to properly finance his |
his work and it is this financing upon
which depends to a large degree the 1
prosperity of the country."
CO-OPERATIVE FARMING
In this age of co- operation, in
which manufacturing and commercial
interests have attained wonderful dev\
lopment and success by merging

.^ww.wr., ii, is mil to ri(> wonder.
(i at tint co-operation has slowly hut
inevitably wended its way into rural
life. The old method of individualism
is gradually giving way to the co-op-j
native spirit and the result is a <
greatly reduced cost of living and lessened
expense of farming.
South Carolina farmers are leading
'lit' co-operative movement and it is j
gradually being extended into every I
feature of community life.
