TREATY WILL FIX
DATE FOR PEACE
Formal Ending of War Be
Probably Sixty Days
After Signing
UNITED STATES MAY
SIGN SEPARATELY
Position As an Associate
Rather Than Ally to Be e
Recognized.
Paris.?A clause has been drafted
toi insertion in the peace treaty fixing
the date for the transition to a
state of peace sixty days after the
signing of the treaty. If the treaty
is signed about May 15, peace thus
will become effective throughout the
world on July 16.
The purpose of this provision is to
?iwTr?r?f pr*nftisir>n nmonp* the more
than twenty belligerent nations,
which might fix different dates in
their parious ratifciations. According
to the present plan each nation
will ratify the treaty according to
its own laws, but all will unite in a
common date which will become a (
universal day of peace.
This follows the precedent estab- |
lished at the conclusion of previous
wars, but it is increasingly necessary
in the present case owing to
the large number of nations signing
the treaty.
Tt is being considered whether the
United States, as an associated power
but not an ally, should sign a
separate treaty of peace with Germany.
It would be the same treaty
as that signed by the Allies and
would be signed at the same time as
part of same ceremony but the effect
of the separate treaty would be to
preserve the position of the United
States an associated instead of an
AllJn/1 on/1 wmilrl Iia o rlitwt I

engagement between the United
States and Germany instead of between
the United States and a large
number of other Allied powers.
May lie Discussions.
Count von Brockdorfif-Rantzau in
his last reply, stated the German
plenipotentiaries had been designated
"with the idea that pourparlors
will occur simultaneously with the
delivery of the preliminaries of
peace." This expectation to engage
in discussions from the outset is i
leading to a careful scrutiny of Pros- J
ident Wilson's "fourteen points," as
intimations have been received that
the chief discussion will be whether
the treaty accords with those points.
One expert engaged in this scrutiny
says the principal discussion will
occur over the fifth point, relative to
the German colonies, and the second,
which provides for "free, open and
absolute freedom of the seas."
The fifth point provides for "free, ,
open ami absolutely impartial ad- |
justmont of all colonial claims." The
treaty ends Germany's control of
her former colonies, with the League
of Nations establishing mandatories.
Whether this accords with the provision
for "free and open adjustment"
i ; expected to figure in the pourparlors.
The second point, concerning
the freedom of the seas, has not
figured during the dsicussion of the
treaty and the attitude to be finally
adopted has not been announced.
To He Delivered Whole.
One of the men drafting the treaty
has expressed the belief it would be
physically impossible to complete the
instrument in time for the arrival of
the Germans and that it might even
take until May 1.13 to consummate the
tremendous task. This leads to some
discussion of presenting parts of the
treaty already completed, such as
the League of Nations and the repurations
provisions, but it is understood
President Wilson and Premier
i;ioyci ueorge insist that no parts bo
T)resented by themselves and that
the entire document he presented.
This may load to some revision in
plans for the delivery of the treaty
to Germany and there may he a brief
period of inaction until the document
is l-eady.

I PROHIBITION ACT
TO BE ENFORCED
Ban on All Beers and Wines as
to Production and
Sale.
New York.?The government proposes
a literal enforcement of the
war time prohibtiion act, including
a ban on production and sale of all
beers and wines, whether or not they
are intoxicating, the department of
justice announced through a special
representative in the federal court
here.
While no steps will be taken to
prevent brewing, pending a court determination
of the laws constitutionality
raised by brewers of the New
York district, manufacturers will
operate in peril of future prosecution,
according to the statement of
William C. Fitts, special counsel appearing
for Attorney General Palmer
in the beer litigation.
The attorney advised .Tinbrp A N
Hand, who heard arguments on the
government's motion to dismiss the
suit brought on behalf of national
brewing interests by the Jacob Hofniann
Brewing Company to restrain
the federal authorities from interfering
with its production of 2 3-4
per cent, beer that the department
of justice did not know and did not
cave whether beer of the strength
indicated was intoxicating.
The law prohibited sale after Juno
30 of distilled beverages as well as
manufacture after April 20 and sale
after June 30 of "beer, wine and
other intoxicating malt or vinous
liquors for beverage purposes" pending
the demobilization of the military
forces, he said. The words
"beer" and "wine" were not qualified,
in the opinion of the government,
he added, and the apparent
congressional intention to stop the
"waste" of grains and fin its in the
production in any strength would be
enforced.
"With "half the world" looking to
America ur food, Mr. Fitts contended,
"tne necessity for its conservation
was greater even than on
the day of Chateau Thierry" and it
was equally essential that liquors be
withheld from public sales while the
army and navy were undergoing demobilization.

IN MEMORY
Of our clear, loving, sweet baby,
Lcroy Neal Bryant, who was born in
Lakeland, Fla., Oct 29th, 1916, and
1 whom the death angel claimed as its
victim on the morning of Oct. 15th,
1918, in Savannah, Ga. Aged one
year, eleven. months, and fifteen
days. His remains were shipped the
following afternoon by Henderson &
Henderson, underakers, to Conway,
S C., accompanied by father and
mother and were placed the following
day in the old church yard of
Bethlehem. Funeral services being
conducted by Rev. B. W. Williams.
My dear Baby, you are gone but not
forgotten,
Never will your memory fade;
Sweetest thoughts will ever linger,
'Round the far off grave where
you are laid.
Six months today you crossed the
river
Where Jesus Christ had crossed
before;
He surely called you for His glory,
To behold His face forever more.
Now you arc clothed in clean white
Linen,
And you walk the streets of gold;
Oh, loved one! Safe forever,
In the Saviour's fold.
You arc waiting in the city.
'Where the Holy Angels wait;
And when I cross the river
I will see you at the gate.
In our home you are sadly missing,
But since our loss is Heaven's
gain;
Mo Jesus we'll be submissive,
And trust through Him we will
meet again.
The Lord giveth and the Lord takcth
away, blessed be the name of the
Lord.
His loving mother,
Mrs. Arthur G. Bryant.

INSTEAD OF COTTON, WHAT?
Clemson College.?What should we
plant in South Carolina on those
lands taken out of cotton? We cani.ot
afford to let fields lie idle any
more than we can afford to grow
cotton at a loss.
To properly answer the above qucs
tion will require some thought on the
part of every farmei, says Acting
I):'rector D. W. Watkins of the Exl
union Service. The best layout of
crops for one farm might r.at suit
another nearby farm. The guiding
} i ir.ciplc should be in each case to
plant crops that promise to pay bettet
than cotton. So far as in nossiblo
flops : hould be grown that may be
f< <I to livestock. When crops are fed
on the farm and the; manure returned
to the land and the soil is enriched,
whereas cotton does not increase the
fertility of the land.
Certainly there should be an increased
acreage this year with in
corn velvet beans, sorghum for
feed and syrup, sugar cane for the
sy rup, legume hay crops, soy beans,
and peanuts for hogs, sweet and
Irish potatoes, home gardens, and
permanent pastures. Plans should
bo made this spring for putting in a
large acreage in alfalfa next fall.
In planning a system of crops the
Is bor requirements for each crop
must be taken into consideration.
Frequently the crop which sells for
most per acre is not the most profitable
crop, because of the excessive
lebor cost of that crop.
'Labor is now the most expensive
roquiremnet for crop production.
Crops which require less labor, such

is socretly building up a new army,

manufacturing new railroad materials.
The members of the delegation declare
they have proof of their assertions.
They say the Germans' preparations
escape the notice of the Allied
missions of control because such
missions usually make the big German
towns their headquarters while
Germany's secret preparations are
being conducted in faraway and unfrequented
villages.
Work in Harns.
Rruda, who is the head of the new
delegation, has lived is such villages.
He tells how bars and other buildings
on the country estates of the
Junkers are turned over to the German
military chiefs. To the Allied
eye all the German barracks are
empty, and all the artillery parks
have been cleared, but the farms and
barns are full of husky German soldiers
and drills of a military natui-e%
arc held in secret. In the suburbs of
Zittau, Saxony, alone there are con- j
cculed thirty batteries of artillery*
and like quarantines are hidden even
in Prussia and in Brandenburg at
Frank fort-on-t he-Oder.
Recioiiting for this new army is.
under the command ot the old army
chiWs, especially of von Hindenburg,
and it goes on unceasingly and unhampered.
Not a day passes but
that some 500 young Germans join
the ranks with pay of 6 marks
(about $1.38) a day and good food,
which is not obtainable elsewhere.
.Munitions Concentrated. I
Long files of new trucks are to he
seen daily carrying munitions, madeeven
since last year, to these vast
assembly centres. While Berlin and
Hamburg are short of automobiles, 1
thousands of these vehicles are to be
seen closely guarded at Bautzen,
Saxony. Among the new recruits are
young college students who have left
their studies, and who now say they !
aie "ready to defend the Farmland
against any unjust peace."

Hon of Germany's preparations Hruda \{
appeals to the Allies to take immediate
steps to put a stop to it.
"Perhaps, in a few weeks, it will

made at Versailles in view of the
forthcoming conferences there. The
German delegates are to be housed H3
in the old profaotun', now a part ofwJ
the Hotel des Reservoirs, where ;
1871 the Duke of Co burg had hir^|
