One quality of a thief is that he
wants everybody to believe he is an
honest man.
o
This country will never be any
open door for German trade or German
goods more.
Nearly every man thinks he knows
what is best for him but he cannot
convince others that he knows.
o
One minute's carelessness in regard
to fire is liable to cause years
of trouble. Then why not be careful?
o
Many a small farm is made to pay
better than a large one, owing to the
Detter management of its affairs by
its owner.
? ?o
Some men are made up in such a
way that if you give them the least
little bit of power they will act as if
they had it all.
o
The people have been warned and
warned again about the nature of flu
epidemics and that it comes back
again and again; hence the necessity
of keeping up precautions.
o
There is one thing we know and
that is that Germany and other
countries will want more from us
than we are willing to give. As well
begin to be sparing with favors now.
o
The common school system has
made some progress and it cannot be
denied; but that the system is in a
muddle is also true. Let the Legislature
help us out of the tangle.
o
With the fire department here
there is no rule so wise to be followed
in regard to it as one which would
require everything connected with it
to be ready at any and all times on a
minute's notice.
o
Reconstruction after the world wai

States. It means a great deal to thSJlilln

Under Cover?Loss
Runs Into Millions.
If there .e GOO,000 bales of cotton
exposed to the weather in South
Carolina the loss to the owners will
likely be about $4,500,000, in the
opinion of T. B. Stackhouse of Columbia.
Mr. Stackhouse says that nothing
like so many bales arc in the open
in his opinion, but that there are a
greater number of bales of cotton
now lying out exposed to rain and
sunshine than ever before in the history
of the State. In opinion of Mr.
Stackhouse theroe aie about (>00,000
bales in the hands of the farmers of
the State, and a considerable part of
it is not housed at all.
This is a matter deserving of the
most serious consideration in the j
opinion of Mr. Stackhouse. He is not
ri .1 i ir: i

the eight warehouses belonging to
the Standard Warehouse Company,
of which lie is president, has its full
capacity, and is out of the market
for the storing of cotton. An embargo
on all shipments of cotton to
the warehouses here has been in
force for several weeks.
Mr. Stackhouse says the condition
of the warehouses under his control
is that of every other warehouse in
the State. In other words, all warehouses
for the storing of cotton :.r
lull and it is a matter for each indil
vidual farmer to consider what he
? shall do with his cotton.
Mr. Stackhouse says that by every
token each bale of cotton which is
permitted to remain in the open will
i lose about 25 pounds in rotten cot
ton by May.
As to the amount of cotton which
- is in the open, Mr. Stackhouse told
t of one farmer in Florence County
who has K00 bales and of others of
m-u 1%/-* ail* tie on ??< u #? f i ? * oa

) years' experience he has seen nothing
like it.
In respect to the damage to cotton
- by leaving it unsheltered Mr. Staekr
house tells of 90 bales which he had
- some years ago and which he sold in
J May following its pioduction. When
1 sold about 3,000 pounds of rotten cat
e ton were pulled from it. He tells 01
s a farmer in Anderson who had 1(
t bales. He stored 11 bales and left
o fivo bales in the open. When the loi
n was sold enough rotten cotton wa.<
n pulled from the five bales to hav<
i- paid for the storing of the whole 1(
bales. He cites numerous instance!

like this. The rot will commence be- i
hind the metal tie and will eat into i
the middle of the bales, sometimes
extending the entire length of the
bale.
Since the warehouses are full the
matter of putting the cotton under
shelter is one for each farmer to provide.
In th eopinion of Mr. Stack- i
house it will be much better for the
farmers to leave wagons and buggies
in tho epen and put the cotton uhd,pr
the sheds.
Mr. Stackhouse says that tbe
Southern farmer has the cotton situation
more fully in his hands than
ever before in the history of the eoun
try. This is due to the fact that the
* i
greater part of the 1918 crop is yet
in the hands of the producer himself.
If cotton remains in the hands of
the producer there will be greater
incentive to reduce the acreage next
>car and to raise more foodstuffs,
says Mr. Stackhouse. In his poinion,
the price of foodstuff will remain
high, and with the amount of cotton
remaining in the hands of the makers
the price of cotton is uncertain.

WHY GOOD ROADS. MR.
FARMER?
Clemson College, S. C.?Roads arc
not built for pleasure. There may
have been a time, a decade ago,
whoa good roads were of greatest
value to joy 1 itlers, but that was before
the business and transportation
were done largely in motor vehicles.
The road question is no longer one
of joyriding.
The Spartanburg Herald presents
the case admirably in a recent editorial.
Today roads arc needed not for
sight-seers. Roads were not built I

SICK SOLDIERS ARE
ILL USED, IS CHARGE
North Carolina's Attorney Gen
eral Asks Inquiry of Bad
Conditions.
Washington?A Congressional com
.nittee will be asked to investigate
charges made against the army officers
in charge of Camp Polk, a
tank camp at Raleigh, N. C. James
S. Manning, Attorney General of!
North Carolina, complained to Sen-1
ator Simmons that the mishandling j
of influenza and pneumonia there |
may have resulted in deaths. Mr.1
Manning feels keenly on the subjectof
sick soldiers, one of his sons hav- j
ing died of illness in France.
Senator Simmons asked an inves
tigation by the War Department of
the complaint that the medical officers
had neglected the soldiers, and
by moving some to Asheville, when
they were too sick to be transferred,
may have caused their deaths.
In response to a letter embodying
the complaints of Mr. Manning, the
War Department sent to Senator
Simmons a report of Major Wilh'am
E Harrington, Camp Surgeon at
Camp Polk, in which he denied there
had been neglect. In a letter received
by Senator Simmons to-day,
Attorney General Manning said:
"My letter to you was based upon
complaints made to me and fact;
stated to me by some of the most
highly respected ladies of Raleigh,
who nursed the sick soldiers. The
complaints which these ladies made
were the result of their own observation;
were facts that fell under
ntim nifno om/1 4 1a rx
tuv ia v/ tin v. tv ^ ^ aim i/jiu
tion open was whether or not these
ladies told the truth. Knowing their
high character and their loyalty and
devotion to these strangers, I am
very frank to say that I would believe
their statements in preference
to those made by Major Harrington.
"I have a letter fiom the guardian
of one of the sick r.oys transft rreci
from Camp Polk to Asheville in
which he wrote that the nurse in
charge of the boy at Asheville reported
that his condition was very
critical when he reached the hospital.
This boy died * d^yf ^tei

OBITUARY
The death angel visited our home
and took from us our darling little
Anna. She passed away on the
eight of November. She was laid to
rest on the following day at the
Brown cemetery, *o await the rcsuricction
morn. She was born May,
Id, 1914. All was done for her that
willing . hands and loving hearts
could do but nothing could stay the
icy hand of death. Dr. J. S. Dusenbury
and Dr. J. K. Stalvey were called
to her bedside but all in vain. Cod
knew best. She was a bright and
loving child and loved by all who
knew her. She loved to go to Church
| and Sunday School. She leaves a

Dearest Anna, thou hast left us,
And out loss we deeply feel;
Hut 'tis God who hath bereft us,
He can all our sorrows heel.
You are gone but not forgotten,
Never will your memory fade;
Sweetest thoughts will ever linger,
'Round the grave where you are
laid.
Garth has lost its look of gladness,
Heaven seems to us more bright;
Since the spirit of cur dear one
Took its homewa'd flight.

ARMISTICE TERMS ,
GOVERWIDEFIELD ^
The new armistice terms to bo
presented to Germany by Marshal
Koch are unofficially stated here to
include the following:
Kirst. Retribution upon the Ger- ^
n/ans for the murdor and ill-treat- \
ment of allied prisoners.
Second. The machinery and goods
stolen by Germany from France and
Belgium to be at once given up. It
| is pointed out France alone has f>00,000
men who will be out of work until
this machinery is returned.
Third. German gold, amounting,
to more than 100,000,000 pounds, to ^
be moved from Berlin to a safe place,
probably at Frankfort and protected*
from Bolshevism in Germany en
louie. ucrtain other property to be
surrendered.
Fourth. Germany is to give over
her shipping, of which she is believed
to have 4,000,000 tons, to carry
food supplies to countries in Europe .
j in need of them. '
Fifth. U-boats on the stocks to be
handed to the alliens for their disposal
or to be destroyed and no more
I submarines should be built.
\
London.?The Central News declares
that as a Tesult of the allied discussions
in Paris the whole aspect of
demobilization has undergone a sudden
and vital change, this being
shown in the drastic conditions demanded
of Germany for a renewal of
the armistice.
"On authority of an unimpeachable
character," says the Central
News, "it can be stated that a situation
exists in Europe under which
war may break out again at any moment.
The allied war council has arrived
at a decision which meuns that
l 1 i ? i i
me- nrmsn people have mistaken theappcarancc
of peace for reality. Thi*
decision means that the new British,
ministry must revise the wholescheme
of army demobilization*
"The decision is that Great Britain
in proportion to its military strength,
must maintain an army of occupation
on the Rhino for many months*
If the rapid increase in demobilization
recently announced were continued,
there would in a few month.*
be no army in France to undertake
the obligations which, by common de
cision of the allies have been placet!
upon British shoulders."
An interesting suit, involving tfu?
question of the ability of the 'S'ate
to tax raliroad contracts after the
railroads had passed under federal
control, has been brought against the
treasurer of every county in the
State by the Southern Express Company
through its attorneys, Barron,
pany through its attorneys, ' Barron,
