' I % ton at Home Till Price Goes Up Governor Manning in av statement issued recently advises the closing of all cotton markets in the South ' until the demand for cotton is such j that a fair price will be offered for the staole. i * I 1 The entire industrial, business and 1 agricultural interests of the South are at stake, says Governor Man- 1 ning, who reviews in his statement the fact that when Germany declared , for unrestricted submarine warfare < cotton declined, and, with the coming of peace, when the submarine menace is removed, maritime insurance 1 rates decrease and greater export fa- ' cilities are at hand, cotton again : declines sharply in price. Governor Manning calls on the cotton farmers of the South to hold their cotton off the market, to sell , none of it, and points out that the pawning of peace, when there will be , a greater world demand for cotton, is no time for panic. o Dr. Bcthea of the Norton Drug Company loft last week to spen 1 sov- ( oral days in Mullins, his home town. ^ NOTICE or SALIC.

Not ouly la the Food Ad- ] ilnietration urging a larger acreage i wheat, but it is pointed out that ( fe should likewise be planted on a irgor scale than ever before. It Is 1 iken for granted that South Caro- 1 na farmers have realized, generally 1 peaking the necessity of making their i inds produce food crops, and that, . lorefore, they will plant at least nough wheat to provide for them- ^ slves. and wherever possible, to help , 11 up the nation's wheat bin. In planting rye also, the farmer has n opportunity to help his country and imself. live is ail PTr-ollnnt anhatl. jte for wheat, in fact has almost 1 qual value as a broad crop. Rye I rows well on nearly all types of soil i South Carolina, and requires comaratively little labor to produce it. : offers financial returns to the farmr. It serves as a cover crop durihg ie winter, and it may be harvested in me to plant a crop in the spring. Clemson College experts say that ie Abru/.zi is the variety to grow in outh Carolina, and that it will do etter if planted on land that lias been relI plowed and harrowed early in the ill. It will do well, however, if | lanted on corn land if plowed into 1 ultlvation, otr better still if planted 'itli a one-horse drill.

SUPREME COUNCIL WILL_MOVE NEXT Washington.?In advance of the nceting of the supreme war council soon to be held at Versailles, officials here decline to discuss the approaching peace conference or to inlicato any views the government may uive at to the time or place of its asscmbly. Amercia's suggestion on ihese subjects probably will be presented to the council itself by Col. E. VI. House, the government's special representative in Europe. Much of the real work of the peace conference, it is believed here, ali * rcauy nas been done by the supreme war council. As a preliminary to the neeting of the conference, however, it will be necessary for the allied an 1 American governments to decide to what extent and by what title the provisional governments which have seized the reins of power in Berlin and Vienna represent the peoples of their .countries. This is a delicate subject and officials today confessed that they had only foggy ideas as t > the actual governmental situations in these capitals. o COPY SUMMONS FOR RELIEF (Complaint Not Served.)

William Hohonzollon, the former German Kaiser, arrived at Count lientinek's chateau of Mid ?., ci t vi-ip, near Am hem, according to a despatch to the Daily Express dated Sunday at Vol p. | The former Emperor was accom! panicd by two equerries. All three , were in civilian attire. The despatch from Velp says that Jan automobile containing two members of the German court arrived first and notified Count Bontinck of the approach of the former Emperor. The second car brought haggage. while the third with its blinds I down, arrived in the evening. From it the former Emperor and the .... / i equerries v lighted. (Velp is east of Arnhem and about fifty miles southeast of Amsterdam. It i : eighty miles northeast of Ey.-den, where the former Empress crossed the frontier Sunday morning.) Advices from Hoi and indicated that a great mystery still is being made of the ox-Kaiser's destination. The . former Emperor made an inglorious entry into Holland. At 7:J10 o'clock Sunday morning ton travolj stained automobiles, driven by Prussian officers were seen coming slowly ; through the fog along the Yiso-MaasI tricht highroad. The last Belgian (village, Mouland, which is almost on the border line, was still asleep. The noise of the motors brought out a crowd of curious villagers. The former ruler was then dressed I in the uniform of a General with an officer's cap, and he carried a sword. The ertwhile martial figure was huddled and bent on a walking stick, while his eyes stared straight ahead. The Dutch frontier guards stopped the cortege. After some brief formalities the automobiles were conducted to the railway station at Eysdre. Dutch cavalry and military cyclist, formed a cordon about the station. Crowds of Belgian refugees swarm ed around the station crying: "A has Guillaumc! Assassin!" The imperial train arrived at the station an hour later. It consisted of fourteen cars, and William II, who had walked up and down the railway platform, entered the I rain and changed his garb to civilian clothes.
