The South Carolina Cotton Assointion received a telegram from former Gov. Richard I. Manning revesting that the latest detailed inurmation concerning the cotton cam >aign not only from South Carolina >ut the entire cotton belt be wired lim. He urged that this information >e given in full as he witnessed it \n the purpose of using it in the various great cotton centers in Europe. The association, after checking the returns from this State in full and the various sections of the cotton belt, wired him at length. The result of the information telegraphed to him will prove a source of great ratisfaction and happiness to him, said a member of the committee, and this information will be a revelation and amazing to the speculators of Die North and to the manufacturers of Europe who have been so foolish a* to rely on information from the Northern speculators. 1>~ ;Early buying of next winter's supply of coal is urged upon the public I 1.1. r i i j a d,v uic mei administration. o Get the Every Cake Nobody wants anything when ho buys from a merchai buy what he needs at fair pri< mi - ~ . /? 4 A 4 /\ O jliiu year 01 iyiy unas i a full line of staple goods that are fair to our customers If you have not been trac us a trial this year.

What girl or woman hasn't hoard of lemon juice to remove complexion blemishes; to whiten the skin and to bring out the roses, the freshness and the hidden beauty? But lemon juice alone is acid, therefore irritating, and should be mixed with orchard white this way. Strain through a fine cloth the juice of two fresh lemons into a bo4 tie containing about three ounces of orchard white, then shake well and you have a whole quarter pint of skin and complexion lotion at about the cost one usually pays for a small jar of ordinary cold cream. Be sure to strain the lemon juice so no pulp gees into the bottle, then this lotion will lemain pure and fresh for months. When applied daily to the face, neck, arms and hands it should help to bleach, clear, smoothen and beautify the skin. Any druggist will supply three ounces of orchard white at very little cost and the grocer has the lemons.? ?adv?(5) Eat moro fish?the kinds that are frozen solid and covered with an ice jacket as soon as they are drawn from the deep, cool sea?-is the advice of specialists of the United States department of agrciulture. less than a fairly good article it; and a customer wants to 8 :es. ;s at the same old stand with > which we offer at prices > as well as to us. rr^sn ^ a ^ Ivng' at Tcddville before, give fS.

Excepting rye, crimson clover is] the earliest pasture available in the spring in the Middle Atlantic States; from New Jersey to North Carolina, i Ciimxon clover is grown mostly for i soil improvement and for hay, but j it can well be used for pasture dur- t ing the eight weeks from February ) to April 1. If the clover is to hoi plowed under, it casn be pastured as I late as April 15, but if hay or a seed cy op is to he secured the stock should be taken off two weeks earlier. Crimson clover pasture is especially valuable for hogs and sheep, which relish this% clover quite as much as they do red clover and al- [ falfa. !t is highly valued by dairymen as a substitute for silage and as | a means of obtaining green food very Daily in the season. Many dairymen jK'.xtu 'o their cows on crimson clover i:\ order to save their silage for dry pells during the summer. An average acre of crimson clover furnish ; [lay pasture for two or three cows and reduces the amount of silage that must be fed by about one-half. Hogs, sheep, and light cattle can be run on upland pastures throughout the winter and cariy spring except when 'snoW is on the ground. Heavy cattle must not he turned on i kiiv ut-ius wiicn cue ground is soft, although crimson clover is not injurxl by trampling as much as permanent blue grass sod. Crimson clover is not as likely to cause bloating as otli jr clovers, but cattle, and especially /oung cattle, should not be allowed 0 graze when the clover is covered vith frost. o Lieut. Col.

O FOR THE BENEFIT I, OF ILLITERATES Bill Introduced In Senate anc House In Their Behalf?The j Church Organization Will 1 Also Give Practical Aid. ! < jWILL PROMOTE EDUCATIOil | The Significant Movement of the Times Is That of the Centenary of the Methodist Episcopal Church South?Will Spend Millions Among the Uneducated The fact that several thousand soldiers were unable to understand the orders given them from their superiors and that many, many thousands could not sign their own names to tlieir questionnaires brought to light a condition so serious that two Southern Representatives at Washington are now introducing bills to promote the education of illiterates throughout the length and breadth of America. Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia, has introduced a bill in the Senate "to promote the education of illiterates, of persons unable to understand and use the Kng lish language, and other resident per sons of foreign birth," and the same measure has been introduced in the House by Hon. William B. JJankheud, of Alabama. The introduction of this important bill means a great deal to the South, which, because ol its negroes and mountain whites, lias long borne a reputation for illiteracy out of proportion to that of the rest of the couu try. Just what steps will bo Immediately taken as the result ol' the passage of the education of illiterates bill at Washington cannot he stated at tins time, but, certainly, practical measures will be put into operation for tlij establishment of schools in both rural districts and cities. Other organisations besides that of the government are at work on the same problem?the establishment ol schools in the heart of tenement districts and rural communities being a matter of first importance with all ol them. One of the most significant movements of the times in th s eon nection is that of the Centenary ol the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, because that denomination will ! expend within the next five years over ! $3,000,000 among the uneducated plnesPK iti I lid !ln::fln.>rn -md U'ol-! . i-n Slates. The church is? to raise a fund of $35,000,000 in an eight-day drive ir. April, the financial campaign being a part of the Centenary Celebration of the denomination. The money is he i ing raised with a view to putting the j work of the church on a business j basis, the church considering its dut;. ; to the illiterates here in America to bp ! among the matters of tirst importance I which it should undertake. A aurve> has been made and the result of tin ! campaign will he the apportionment oi 5*3.000,000 among the various illiterate population as- follows: Mountain pop illation, $750,000; Immigrant. $000,000; J negroes, $500,0.00; Indians. $.130 000; cotton mill population, $150,000; Christian literature lor all of thorn, $100,000 With the definite step undertaker, nt Washington, with one denomination already completing its plans lor furthering the work among them, and with other churches and organization? getting ready to join hands in their behalf, it is more than possible thai the illiterates of the South are in fair way to soon become educated cit sens of ihe United States. o \ IT'S SURPRISING That So Many Conwav Poonle Fail To Recognize Kidney Weakness.

Washington. ? Germany's cotton shortage is estimated to be '1,500,000 bales of 500 pounds each, in official dispatches based on the opinion of Kuropean experts. When Germany began hostilities in 1914 the country had on hand only about 500,000 bales of raw and nam:factum! cotton, a supply sufficient for two or three months. The pre-war consumption had been 2,OoO 000 bales annually, much of vhieh was expected, but the cessation of exports was fullv offset hv military needs, so thai the country's cquircments were not lessened. The stocks on hand weie supplemented to he extent of 1,200,000 bales by seiz'es in invaded districts. Many expedients were described as having been used by the Central Cowers to obtain the staple through mitral countries and in the first three years "reasonably large quantides of cotton goods" were imported 1 that way. Gcrmun sources estiaate that 000.000 bale.: were puslaw d from the United States, Scanlinav'a, Holland, 175,000 bales from vitzoviand, before the blockade was ade entirely rlYective up to the end c * 1017. The amuont obtained in 1018 was not known. A total of 100,000 bales also were acquired in Asia Minor and Russian Turkestan. Cotton purchased by Carman interests, which were unable o import ii from neutral countries, ' ? estimated at 200,000 bales, of vhioh 200000 bales are stored in 'candinavia, Holland and Spain, and .0,000 l.^a1 cs in Switzerland. Substitut f( r cotton, made from riper nettles, etc., were not very utcc Tul and only 10 per cent of Germany's normal domestic cotton /om umption was mot in that day, v cording to the estimates, or about . .A /\AA 1 * * * uo.uou oaics in three years. Dasod on the above information, it ;as estimated that. o!' Germany's average need of 8,000,000 bales in >ur years, only 0,500 000 bales had been supplied. In determining the cotton ration to be supplied Germany, it was pointed out the loss of Alsace and Lorraine nmst be taken into consideration. Those provinces included 25 per cent of the spindle and loom capacity of the country, so that the annual requirements have been reduced to perhaps 1,500,000 bales. Virtually all factories were said to bo in great need of repair and i loss of three or four months' working; time was estinated to be necessary to put the uaehinery, injured by working on nibstitutcs, in good condition. The report pointed out that if Gcri any demanded that her shortage b? nade up, she would bo asking in efr w v i in ime-i'jurin ot tlie world's nuu;al production of 20,000,000 bales. o It is reported among airmen that flight across the Atlantic ocean is e\v being attempted by a FiCnch en tenant named Fontan. o TRESPASS NOTICE.
