STATE SENATOR
SAYS LOYALTY
Needed at This Time to Make
Cooperative Movement
a Success
Florence, S. C., August 19.?Good
prices for tobacco and the atmosphere
of confidence and relief make this
section of the State a pleasant one to
visit, according to the view of Senator
Neils Christensen of Beaufort.
He is here today to meet the direr to 1-3
of the Florence Chamber of Commerce
and discuss certain activities
of the South Carolina Development
Board, of which he is president.
Mr. Christensen reports that there
is no tobacco in his end of the State |
as they are taken up with truck. But
he is interested in the co-operative
movement. Asked for an interview,
he offered the following suggestion:
"Good prices for truck down our
way has been greatly helped for over
six years by our Truck Growers' As/
sociation. They are not all in it; but
all benefit by it and recognize that
fact. So two years ago when the

a proposed co-operative marketing
act, it at once enlisted my support.
The Development Board put itself behfnd
the effort, and we got the bill
enacted into law in 1920. Since then
several co-operative organizations
have been formed, but the Tobacco
Growers are the first to market under
its provision.
It is of the greatest importance to
the whole co-operative movement in
the South that their tobacco association
makes a clean cut success.
Loyalty to this farmers organization
is needed. Loyalty, active loyalty,
by every man, woman aiyi child
who has any interest in crop prices;
by bankers, merchants and professional
men as well as farmers.
Organized buyers under the old
system are bound t<v fight you. Certain
truck commission houses have
fought our farmers truck association.
They have clone it persistently
and without quarter. 1 am told that
certain tobacco manufacturers are
doing that here. If they succeed
prices will do down. .
How it is possible that any farmer
or anyone dependent on the prosperity
of their section can tolerate such opposition
is hard to understand.
There is no quarrel with the fair
and open competition of independent
buyers, nor with the farmer who exercises
his right to sell where he
pleases, though we do not approve his
judgment, but when they attack the
cooperatives it is hard to excuse
them.
The farmer who sells independently,
if he has any intelligence, knows tiiat
his increased prices are due to the
co-operatives. So even if he can convince
himself*that he should stay 011
the outside to get all the benefits
without sharing the burdens, yet lie
should have sense enough to see that
it is his interest to have the co-operative
in the field.

than I do, and they may feel that we
outsiders are too free with advice.

WARREN LOSING
NEGROSUPPORT
Washington, D. C., Aug. 14
Revolt against the Harding Adminstration
is widespread among the |
legro Republicans, according to the |
'Washington Tribune," a representa-;
ive and widely circulated weekly ;
lewspaper of that race, published in
.he National Capital. An editorial,
>vhich charges the Republican party
md the present Republican Adminis- I
:ration with treachery in dealing with
negroes, concludes with the slogan,
'Awav with Harding and this hypocritical
Republican Administration."
After asserting that if the president
al election were to be held this
fall, "Harding and his administration
would meet the greatest defeat ever'
piven a Republican candidate," the
editorial in the "Tribune" continues.
"President Harding has proved to
be reactionary and capitalistic. Wall'
Street is given far more consideration
by this Administration than the
common people. The common poopie
placed this Administration in
power but Wall Street is reaping the
benefiit thereof."
The paper then recounts the defeats
the Harding Administration
has experienced in recent primary
elections, and the defeat of
Senator Kellogg in Minnesota and declares
that Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts
is not safe, even if he wins
in t.he primary.
It says that the "colored vote ha.
turned against him, (Senator Lodge;
because of his film-flaming with the
Dyer bill."
"The colored vote all over the
country has been informed of the
hypocrisy of the Republican parts
and this Administration," says tin
editorial. "They are determined to
give oveiV Republican candidate a
set-down. The negroes in several
states are iroing to put out candidates,
and where they have no candidates
they are going to vote for
Democrats, Socialists and Progressive
candidates.
"Anything to defeat the Republicans"
is the motto of the negroes,
the "Tribune" says. The Republicans
have had full power in the National
Government, the paper says. "What
have they done? Nothing."
There is talk of negro Republican
candidates for various offices in
Kentucky and New Jersey, "Tribune"
says, and the editorial urges
a like policy in Illinois.
"The neirro is going to split up
his vote this fall and prove to the
! Republicans that they can no longer
carry the negro vote in their vest
pockets, and Lincoln's freeing the
slaves no longer holds good as u
drawing card for the negro vote."
President Harding is taken t(i
task for breaking his pre-electior
promises to the negroes, particularly
for approving the "lily whites" ir

placed them.
"This Administration has done less

the "Tribune" says.
FOR PEACH GROWING
Clemson College?Many Caroliiu
farmers are thinking of peaches foi
profit. This is true especially ii
certain counties of the Piedmont am
Sandhill sections. Trips made recent
11 y, under the leadership of the Ex
I tension horticulturist and interestec
county agents, to the North Carolim
(pear belt around Hamlet and tin
north Georgia peach belt aroutu
Cornelia, are partly responsible to
.the increased interest. Our farmer:

is more peach talk than ever sine
the marketing season is on. We tool
about 15 men who are interested ii

the North Georgia fruit growinj
section to observe gathering, packinj
and shipping of commercial peaches
We feel that this trip will give i
great deal of information and encou

J. W. Sanders, Kershaw. On Jul

regarding the marketing of peaches
and the possibility of its being a

under boll weevil conditions.
A. B. Carwile. McComick. The
Merriwether and Clarks Hill people
have proven to us that we have
pood soils and climate for commercial
peach growing. Messrs Hoffman,
Owens and I are anxious to see the
orchards enlarged and increased in
number. About 12 cars of peaches
were shipped from Meriwether and
Clarks Hill this season, but the
fruit was very light on account of
the wet spring and summer. t

TRUCK GROWERS FINl) COVER
CROPS PROFITABLE
The automobile has caused a grave
shortage of stable manure among
gardners. In the past these thrifty
men hauled manure from the livery
and private stables i.; Louisville the
whole year. Their high-priced land
could be kept in a high state of cultivation
by a liberal use of manure
and the turning under of crops of
rye.
These men are now experimenting
with rapid growing legume cover
crops. They must have both humus
and an abundance of cheap nitrogen
if they arc to continue to
grow fine potatoes, onions and other
vegetables. Last autumn about "20>)
acres were sown with a mixture or
crimson clover, hairy vetch and sweet
clover as a demonstration. This mixture
was made up of 10 pounds of
crimson clover ami "> pounds of sweet
clover per acre all carefully inoculated.
The last of April tho writer visited
with F. E. Merriman. county
agent, a ten-acre demonstration plot
of this mixture on the farm of Mr.
T. l>. Miller at Medora. The field
was sown during' the first few days
of last October. This was late sowing
for crimson clover in this latitude,
but the field was exquisite.
The party was interested in the
heavy mass of green manure which
would soon be turned under the soil.
The party was also interested in wha
might have been happening to the
roots of these inoculated legumes. A
I big, vigorous plant of hairy vetch
(was dug up for inspection. Its
' i roots showed such a mass of nodules,
|. they were taken to the pump for a
careful bath. As the earth was
' washed away great clusters of 1101
dules could be seen. One cluster
' close to the surface was as large
1 as an ordinary marble.
r If these quick growing legumes in
' an open winter can make such a
mairniticant growth, they are worth
! sowing- each season. To be certain
' o f having a cover crop no matter
1 what the winter might be, rye could
1 be added to the mixture. With such
' a mixture, the wise farmer would
hold his soil during the bad winter
; months. With such a green crop,
' he might do some grazing with
hogs or sheep. With such a tangle
of fertility, he would be certain to
give his land an abundance of humus
and nitrogen in the cheapest
1 and best form.

' In the Pee Dee section of South
Carolina, the dairy cow is increasing
' in favor since the tick has been lick1
ed. Farmers who have been in finan1
cial straits on account of the boll
: weevil's appetite or for other causes,
i have been given credit to buy cows
1 by the bankers, who realize that a
j milk producer is a pretty safe bet
[ when there are no ticks around. In
\ the town of Sumter, where there is
a creamery capitalized at $30,000, the
" I bankers have put up the money for
. many carloads of cows that have
i . Krtrtu Kvniuilit in duiiincr recent
WCtn UI \/vi^M V ? O
months. They take the recommenda?
tion of the creamery manager as to
? the number of cows a certain farmer
* may handle advantageously and give
n him the needed credit.
J The Sumter Creamery, of Sumter,
? S. C., is attracting a great deal of
5 attention in that part of the country.
The capital stock of $30,000 is
u owned by farmers and business men,
who are interested in farms, no single
person having more than $1,000
^ worth of stock. In addition to the
tvgular butter business, the creamery
^ retails milk, cream, butter, and cot''
tage cheese, and an ice-cream busi"
ness has been started. A lunch room
j" has been established at the creamery,
^ which is in the main part of the
1 town, and there is a rest room for the
n convenience and comfort of farm wo*
men. A few years ago, when the
cattle tick still held this region,
such an institution as this modern
creamery would have been impossible.

In a certain South Carolina comcj
munitv there is a small farmer who
, recently became an enthusiast on
c' dairy cows. But before he tried cows
j- he decided that bank stock was a
p better investment. He put $1,000 of
hard-saved cash into a bank that had
just been organized. The bank, owing
to bad management, went to the
a wall and most of the money was
y gone. Then he bought two purely
bred Guernsev cows. Each cow had
E a heifer calf. Before these calves
d had reached breeding age a well>f
known dairyman offered $f>00 for the
