ION WAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1922
i1 PERMITTED TO
VISIT HIS SON
Philadelphia.?Although the massive
gates of the federal penitentiary
at Leavenworth, Kansas, are ready to
swing open a second time for Edward
P. Doree so that he may visit his 5
year old son, "Buckey," dying in this
city, it was considered unlikely that he
will see ihe lad alive. Physicians be-1
lieved that death is imminent.
Several days ago the powerful
government machinery was moved so
that the prison authorities can issue
the paper ordering a convict's leave
of absence for a visit to his home.
Rut Doree is virtually broke, and he
must pay not only his own transportation
for (he nearly 3,000 miles, but
.also that of the guard to accompany
him. He wired his wife three days
ago that $300 was necessary. The
wife who earns her own living, replied
she had no funds, hut would en
deavor to raise the money.
Mrs. Doree, lias wired the warden
at Leavenworth to learn whether her
husband had negotiated funds for the
trip hut lives in hopes that he will
arrive momentarily. As the days
prow, she is torn between joy and
sorrow. Fleeting as is the hope that
her son will live friends are expecting
President Harding to sign a pardon
for her husband within a few days,
due largely \o the intersec.siou of
Senator George Wharton Pepper and
Mrs. Charles Edward Russell.
Dome's case first attracted public
attention when he ?vas granted a
brief leave last spring to visit his
son who was critically ill with pericarditis.
His reward for the long
journey was .a vi^it of but a minute or
two with "13uckey" who cullcd for
him every day and sti!l continues to
do so. Doree has served a'.oi't three
years of a 10-year sentence for violation
of the espionage act.
THE VALUE OF PUREBREDS
"Purebred livestock has about 40
per cent greater earning power
apart from its breeding or sale value,
than sciiib stock.
"The superiority of purebreds on
a utility basis is due principally to:
Better conformation and quality, increased
production, more economical
production, and earlier maturity.
"When purebred sires are used to
improve farm livestock the offspring
is more salable than that of nonpurebred
sires and brings nearly 50
per cent greater returns.
' I lie loregomg are a lew resultj
of a recent inquiry conducted by the
Bureau of Animal Industry, United
States Department of Agriculture.
The figures are based on about
25,000 head of breeding stock owned
by 525 experienced livestock owners.
Besides, the same persons own
30,000 fowels on which the poultry
results are based. All of these
stockmen have for several years?an
average of nine?used purebred sires 1

to head their herds and floeks. More
than that, about 80 per cent oi
their female stock has beejj..purebred.
A small proportion of the remaining
females are scrubs, the othei'M being
grades and crossbreds. Thus the
persons furnishing the Department j
with their experiences were in a (
position to supply dependable information.
"The figures mentioned were ob
tained during the last part of 1921,
in a period of marked depression in
the livestock industry. Partly for
that reason they are considered conservative
even though pointing to
an unusually high value of purebreds
over common stock."?American
Swineherd, May, 1922.
COMING EVENTS.
(Extract from Editorial in Boston
Transcript, Aug. 12, 1922.)
Nothing is to be gained by ignoring
the fact that the failure of the Administration
in the current crisis is
oounci to nave a naci etiect upon the <
Republican campaign in the state f
vvliich holds the right of the lino in I
this election year?the State of the 5
Vice President and the Secretary of
War, the State also of the leader ol (
lie Senate and the Speaker of the
House of Representatives. . . 1
Those who believe, however, that the '*
party in power of which he (Presi- t
lent Harding) is the titular leader tie- I
orves an immediate rebuke by reason I
)f its failure either to keep its campaign
pledges or to meet the challenge <
^f the hoijr, must either possess their
souls in patience for another two 1
years or make the Republican candi- 1
dates in the battle ground States l?ke
Massachusetts and Ohio the unwilling
and to a large extent the undeserved 1
vehicles of the expression of the pre- <
vailing popular disgust. 1
. . . . Presumably Vice President 1
Coolidge, Secretary Weeks, Senator (
Lodge and Speaker Gillett have failed <
to defend the Administration for the <
very good reason that they can find
no defense for its failure. And when
they attempt cn the stump in the coming
campaign to deal with tre dawdling
at Washington days and weeks
and months, what is there for them <
to say?

AT THE RIVER
(Chesterfield Advertise] .)
A group of Chesterfieldians total- 1
in# at one time thirteen are fishing ,
at l ittle River on the Atlantic Coast. ,
The editor of this paper, >vho wvas ^
with the party a few days wishes to ,
emphasize the most important discovery
made on this trip. It is that
in all the 135 miles traveled by au- ;
tomobile across the state the only <
road that stood up perfectly in all the ?
terrific rain that we have recently ex- ;
perienced, was in Chesterfield county.

To the man who is

the reason is worth finding

ALL MARKETING
PROBLEMS DONE
Clemson College.?The Division of
Markets, F. L. Harkey, Chief,
Spartanburg, S. C., will hereafter
landle all Extension truck crop work
laving to do with marketing probems,
from grading through selling;
iccording to announcement made in
:he following letter by Director W
W. Long. Heretofore much of thU
vork, especially with sweet potau
grading and storing, has been done
>y the Extension horticulturists
Oirector Long's statement is given
jelow.
"At a recent conference with Prof.
Newman and Air. Harkey in reference
o the lines of work of the Mfirketng
and Horticultural Divisions the
following arrangement was agreed
ipon:
"That hereafter the marketing
igents will furnish all assistance
'??' flirt i no' ami
jacking of all truck crops including
;weet potatoes. This grading and
standardizing will be carried on
iither in the field or elsewhere.
"That all requests for information
'or the building of sweet potato storage
houses, curing of sweet potatoes,
he grading and handling of sweet
potatoes will be through the Ma2*ceting
Division.
"Inasmuch as we propose to put
jn an additional man in the Division
of Markets W3 believe that the
marketing agents will be in position
:o handle all problems relating to
marketing of the different crops."
County agents and the pub;ic wh.
are seeking assistance in any phase
jf marketing should therefore write
to the marketing agents rather than
to the horticulturists. F. L. Harkey,
Chief Division of Markets, has headquarters
in Spartenburg, S. C.
Other marketing men are L. H.
Lewis, Kloi<ence, S. C., and D. D.
Whitcomb, Aiken, S. C.
FLAPPER'S HAT
The plain little leghorn hat, banled
with color and turned up slightly
in the back and front, has been
added to the flapper's wardrobe. It
is an excellent style for bobbed hair.
perfect condition, unaffected by the
severe drenching. This is the best evidence
possible that Chesterfield county
is building her roads right.
As to the remainder of the parly
still at Little River, they are having
x good time. Trout have been biting
well. Surf bathing has been all it
couid be and everything but the roads
from Cheraw on has been lovely.
