Wheat Growers Safe.
"Wilmington Star.
The-acreage in wheat in North Carolina
has been largely increased the
past fall, and the news now coming
daily from Chicago and other big
wheat markets indicates that they art
lucky. In the Star yesterday morning
the report from the Chicago grain pil
stated that at the close of Tuesday's
operations jhe price of wheat ha<
gone to $1.4J,> per bushel. The price
had risen constantly for the past few
days, and wfoen it got up to $1,3E
the Charlotte Observer remarked:
"Wheat at $3*35 a bushel is calculated
to make the North Carolina
farmers who have put plenty of it into
the ground good over theii
foresight."
The wheat to be harvested in Nortf
Carolina this season will save man}
a dollar in the State, While thos<
farmers who have grown wheat are ir
luck, those who have to buy flour wil
not have any reason to rejoice in the
advance in the price. In the aggre
gate, $1.40 for wheat will drain Nortl
Carolina of a pile of money for th<
Western flour which she is compelle(
to consume,

10 WIN THE PEOPLES
CQNFIBENCE.
Flave you ever stopped to reason
why it is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop out of sight and are soon forgotten
? The reason is plain?the articles
did not fulfill the promises of the man
ufacturer. This applies more particularly
to a medicine. A medicinal
' preparation that has real value almost
sells Hself, as like an endless chain
system the remedy is recommended
by those who are ir. need of it.
A prominent druggist says: "Take
for example Dr. Kelmer's Swamp
Root, a preparation I have sold for
many years and never hesitate to rec5
ommend, for Hn almost every ease it
1 shows excellcm, results, as many of
; my customers testify. No other kidj
nev remedy that I know of has so
large a sale."
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who
- have used the preparation, the suei
cess of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
. due to the fact that it fulfills almost
, every wish in overcoming kidney, liv
cry and bladder diseases, corrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric
1 acid which causes rheumatism.

THE SEA ISLAND"
PLANTERS MEET
Committee Named to Take Up
Question of Reorganization
WATSON"GUEST OF HONOR
Address oil Timely Lines Agricultural
Society Meeting*.
Charleston livening Post.
More than f>0 planters of sea island
cotton members of the Sea Island C h
ton Seed Association, were assembled
in the rooms of ihe Chamber of Commerce
yesterday at noon for the annual
meet in.** of the association, which
was an important session. The chief
question was that of continuing1 the
asstvctrlhm or tin forming of another
along .similar lines. It was decided to
appoint a steering committee, which
i ? -%
mis from now until July, when the
next nui iing- of tlie association take
place, to consider tiic matter < f recr
. ganizaliun. 1. Jenkins Mikeil, presi
d nt, was appointed a committee cj
one to go be fori the State I.egisiat\u\
ut its coining- session, should such
step be found necessary, and pitkii
on behalf of the "long- staple" planters,
that the act in regard to a recitation
of acreage be repealed with n f
erence to the sea island planters. Tin
meeting listening- to a stirring- address
delivered by Commissioner l\. J. Wat
| son, arid then adjourned to dinner at
I the St. John Hotel.
This afternoon the steering committee
held a meeting immediately following
the dinner for a preliminary
I consideration of the matter placed in
its hands. The meeting this morning
was called to order by the president
at the noon hour. Reports were rear
and other important business disposed
of. The question of continuing the
association was then taken up and fully
discussed.
Mr. Watson's Address.
Mr. Watson urged upon the assemblage
the necessity of continuing the
organization, especially at this time,
when conditions are such as to demand
cooperation on the part of cotton
planters everywhere. He began
by reminding the members of the Sea
Island Association that they had a mo
i.xopoly on the particular kind of crop
reused by them. He then outlined the
situation as to the marketing of their
product, and proceeded to advise as he
stated he had been asked to do, upon
what was necessary to be done during
i the coming year. He advised the plant
ers of long staple, first to standardize
their product, and then to eliminate
the factor in the marketing of tlv
staple, dealing with the spinners di
rectly. He told how this might hi
done through the organization of a ,
live association, which might appoint,
one or more of its members to go to
the heads of the New England mills
nn/l ilw\ n %> * i11 o m/1 lr*\
C4.HVI tuv; ijui vjiv mi iiiiiio, cum 111 c 11\ \ * iU
rangements to deal directly with them
He laid particular stress upon the nccsity
for standardizing tiie staple produced
on the Sea Islands of South
Carolina.
Before taking up the Sea Island cot
ton situation in detail, the speaker
went generally into the cotton situation
of the entire South, alternating
his statements in regard thereto with
statistics, which lie said did not reflect
credit upon the intelligence of the
Southern farmer.
Mr. Watson said that he was of the
opinion that the farmers had been pu;
suing such methods in the South as
would ultimately have made all paupers
even if there had been no European
war panic, which he believes luu
brought the planters to a realization
of the necessity of diversification, as
they should have realized long ago.
Agricultural Society Meeting.
At the motion to adjourn the meeting
S. G. Stoney, as head of the Agricultural
Society of South Carolina,
invited the members of the Sea Islam
Cotton Seed Association to be present
and take part in the discussions
of the 150th anniversary meeting of
that Society tomorrow at noon in the
rooms of the Chamber of Commerce.
The meeting he-stated, would be addressed
by Ex-Lieut. CIov. T. C?. McLeod
and by Commissioner Watson.
A large attendance is expected. A
number of interesting matters will bt
discussed, in which all planters art
concerned.
