' THE PEACE TREATY
Document to Be Laid Before
Germans Makes a Formidable
Volume
EXPERTS FITTING
PARTS TOGETHER
Draftinj Work Is Now Only
Mechanical as Text Has
Been Approved.
Paris.?The drafting of the final
form of the peace treaty is proceeding
rapidly in order to have it ready
for presentation to the German delegates
when they arrive at Versailles
a week hence. The document, as
framed, begins with an introduction
in the form of a protocol, setting
forth the complete list of belligerent
powers taking part in the war and
now making peace, with the designation
of plenipotentiaries of each
country and with theii power to sign.
Then comees a declaration of impressive
brevity, not exceeding thirty
words, stating that on the conclusion
of the treaty and the exchange
of ratifications, the war shall come
to an end.
Following upon the declaration of
peace the present intention of the
peace delegates- is to have the covenant
of the League of Nations occupy
the place of honor in the treaty
and to be the first subject orated in
detail. It will thus take the priority
i?" had in the program of the peace
conference.
Then, in succession, will follow the
military, naval and aerial terms, reparations,
responsibilities, the Rhine
frontier, the Sarre region, AlsaceLorraine,
Poland, the status of Dan
sdg as an international port. Germany's
Schleswig-Holstein frontier
and a largo number of special subjects,
including the labor convention
adopted at the last plenary session
of the conference, international ports
^ and waterways, and extended economic
and financial provisions not
directly connected with reparations.
The texual form of all these sub-divisions
has been completed, so that
the work at present going on is
chiefly fitting together the parts
into a homogeneous whole.
This is being done by international
experts representing the five great
powers. Their work is largely formal,
as the council of four and the
commissions have adopted the language
of the various parts now being
fitted together.
It is estimated that the treaty as a
whole will exceed seventy thousand
1 words, or the contents of a large,
closely written volume. The text is
being prepared in French and English,
and, as a means of expediting
action, a German text may be prepared,
tkoQfh it is foreseen that the
German plenipotentiaries may ask
for a considerable time to peruse a
document of such magnitude.

Urgent appeal to the farmers to
invest generously in Victory Loan

United States Senator N. B. Dial

VELVET BEANS FOR COWS.
Clemson College.?The value of vel
vet beans for milk cows is shown
very clearly in the experience of Mr.
Henry Moore of Simpsonville. His
herd of cows were yeilding twelve
gallons of milk per day. He turned
them on a field of corn and velvet
be ans out of which the com had been
harvested, and on the second day the
some cows yielded twenty gallons of
milk. Mr. J. R. Roberts of Piedmont
turned two cows that were practically
dry on velvet beans and in a very
few days the flow of milk increased
from three quarts daily to eleven?
three hundred per cent increase due
entirely to beans.

Berlin.?Semi-official French announcements
of the conditions to bo
laid down in the treaty of peace are
denounced by the German press.
Prince lachnowsky, in an article in
the Tageblatt declares France "forgets
that, instead of leading to disaimament,
an unjustly extorted
peace will bring forth only fresh armaments,
throwing into the shade all
I former armaments, because a mailed
fist peace e$n be maintained only
jby the nrfcdled fiat."
Declaring that a peace of violence
nnist bo absolutely rejected, he concludes:
"Nobody can recompense the
war against us. Neither can we be
starved out, without the common
enemy, communism and terrorism,
throwing all mankind back into its
primitive state."
"No German government can sign
such terms," the Vorwaerts declares.
"The entente statesmen must themselves
settle with the inhabitants of
the Saar valley, who are thoroughly
German and they may find that the
sums proposed as indemnity can not
be extracted, even if the last sheet is
taken from our beds."
The Lokal Anzeiger says: "No
more shameless mockery of President
Wilson's 'fourteen points' can

"The solution of the Saar question
which is proposed means the covering
of naked annexation with a fig

"Mr. Wilson seems to have approved
of a plan that would , bo the most
tremendous political defeat he could
experience."

t
Coblenz. ? Distribution of food |
from the United States to German
civilians in the American zone of occupation
will begin within the next
few days, it was announced at the
headquarters of the 3d Army.
The first shipment consists of a
trainload of flour, bacon, rice and
evaporated milk. The supplies w?ll
be brought from the army depots m
France and sold to German Government
officials in the district at cost
te the army plus transportation
charges.
The plan of immediate distribution
through army channels was decided
upon because of numerous reports
throughout the zone of occupation
that civilians are in need and because
of the delay of the Interallied
Military Mission at Cologne in reaching
a decision as to the best method
of distribution for all the occupied
areas.
M n?tntr In -V J
Tho German officials deposited 2,700.000
marks (about $021,000) with j
the 3d Army as a payment on the I
first shipment of food. The food i
will be distributed by the Germans |
under the card system used during
the war and at uniform prices, which
will be passed upon first by American
officers in charge of the work.
Millions of dollars' worth of materials
abandoned by the German
Army will be sold to civilians in the
American occupied area under United
States Army regulations, it has
been announced upon receipt of authorization
from American general
headquarters. No arms or ammunition
will be included in the property
to be disposed of to Germans, nor
will arf$ material serviceable to the
American Army be sold.

announcement made at 3d Army
headquarters. Major Gen. William
Lassiter, who has commanded the
32d Division since it entered Germany,
is designated chief artillery
officer of the 3rd Army; Brig. Gen.
William G. Haan, who commanded
the 32d Division during the war,

when it leaves the Rhine for home.
Since* the American Army has occupied
this section of Germany, Gen.
Haan has been a corps commander.

ADVISING FARMERS
TO HOLD COTTON
l\io Time to Let Go With Situation
So Well in
Hand.
A statement was issued last, week
by the South Carolina Cotton Association
urging the farmers not to sell
their cotton at present prices and declaring
that although there had been
a marked advance in the price, it
was still selling far below the price ;
it will bring. The statement follows:
"The South Carolina Cotton Association
wishes to urge the farmers
not to sell their cotton at this time
even though there has been a marked
advance during the past ten days.
This advance is very largely due to
the realization in New York that the
cotton farmers are really going to;
reduce their acreage. When the
crops is planted and it is seen that
the acreage has actually been reduced
33 1-3 per cent, the price is
going to go very much higher.
"Prices prevailing today, especially
for off grades, mean that any man
who sells his cotton at prevailing
prices is shouldering upon himself a
tremendous loss. There is not a
better investment in the country to|r>

There was an unusual scene in the
house of commons last week. During

G. Hawker, Australian aviator to
make the first flight across the Atlantic
and gave his rival, Capt. Frederick
P. Raynham, the British flyer,
virtually an even chance to "hop off"
at the same time.
Now that the Germans have been
called to Versailles on April 25, the
indications are that the proceedings
may move with such despatch that
President Wilson can remain for the
signing of the treaty, and thus be
ttbie to take back the completed document.

the present prices. Cotton is today
selling far below the price it will I
bring when the world realizes what'
the true conditions are in the cotton
belt and the actual reduction in acreage.
"The big cotton marketing corporation
with a capital stock of $100,000,000
or $200,000,000, now in the
process of formation, will have a
very stimulating effect on the price ,
and w'\ remove from the market

grown impendent off the poor

"A New York paper says it is
generally believed in New York that
with the advance in* price of cotton
the talk of acreage reduction will
cease. Wc do not believe the fanner
is going to be so easily fooled this
time. He can reason for himself
that if it should be; true that the advance
in price has been merely for
the purpose of preventing acreage
reduction, that the price would go
down as soon as the crop was planted.

farmers to remember the warning of
Gvoemor Manning that a full crop
means eight and ten cents a pound
