Is France trying to give the Kaiser fair notice to "attend to his own busi ness" and not to be running around in the Morocco watermelon patch? It looks as though Mayor elect Dur~ne, of Chicago, might, be forced to wish that there could be "mnunicil al ownership" of Chicago teamsters.

Tho movement for the use of oot ton inst( ad. of juto in tho manufac. ture cf bags, sacks and bagging., which was started some monIth ago by the Cor.cord Farmers Union in this county, is growing in strength and popularity. The movememt was given wide pub. licity last wcock by the action Ot the Charleston Wholesale Grocors' asso. ciation, and the fart-ers of Williams burg county at their mceting Satur day adopted resolutions eEdoraing the demand for the use of cotton bags in shipping fertilizers. Mr, E. D. Smith, president of the State division of the Southern Cotton association, has gone to Dallas, Texas to make some speeches in the campaign for reduced acreage. Ile will mako several speeches in Texas before his return. Ho will urge the farmers of Texas to join in thia de. mand. Mr. F. H. Hyatt of Columbia wil I speak at Edt.-efild Saturday, and Mr. P. H. Weston at Valterboro next Monday, and they %Wi advise the faners to join in the demand for the use of cotton bags instead of jute and burlap, 80 that the conSUmpLtioni of cotton may bo increasedl and1 the do mand for Lhostaple increased to such an oxtent that the price will be nor mal hereafter. o, The idea is founded on comnmn sense and good logic, and the muovo mont ought to succeed. And t ho fact4 that the movement was started in Anderson county seems to be giving it strength and 'cojnidence through. out the State.--Anderson Daily Mail. AN AUCTION SALE. We see no reason why the mor chants of this town should not pull to get trade to this town; to at least one day mn the month havo a crowd here; the most natural day to bring a crowd is saloday. This is alwvays the day people lay off to come to town; whether there is any thing to be sold or not, they come; then why not thke advantage of it and make that a day of bargains, and advertise the fact and wvork to get a crowd here. If your competitor gets part of the rade, that is all right; he will try to ring the ct owdl newt month, and you eot a shiaro of the trade, so you are ven. Now, a proposition that ought to neet with thle approval of cacth busIi 0ss man in town is this: Form an asociation, and on each first Mondaluy old auction sales from your stocjk of oods. There are twelve stores in >wn, including an exclusiv~e clol hig tore, a fancy grocery establishment, nd the drug store; eliminating these, iho could combine and the three uold a sale together, we have nine reneral merchandise establishments, which would cover tenm months, the >ther two sales could be an assort mont of goods taken from all of the itores and each mierchanit get the share of profits his part of the goods brought. Bly this arrangement a good business could be wvorked up and one day in each month would he 4 knoun far and wvide as "bargain day in Pickens." You wvill never have any idea of wvhat it will do, nor how much goods or howv varied an assort4 ment can be disposed of until it is bried. Will you try it?4 Another shake-up is reported from Santo Domingo.

MADE MONEY ON CABuAGE PATCH.1t People who aro talking bard timesi 1 that there is no money to be made on the fa in, would (10 well to follow the I example or Dr. B. F. Smith.' This I gentkcman has a lot in Elberton con taning lss than thice quarters of an aer--to be acurate, '70-100 acres - ou which he has cleared already this year. $185. This profit came firom the production of cabbage. Last fall he planted this plat of ground in this vegetable, which have' been laid by, and Friday he sold the crop for $250 to Mr. J. 0. Ginn. Within the next montb this crop will be harvested and sold, after which Dr. Siith proposes to put the same ground in celery. on which he hop(s to again make a big profit. The doctor says he owns and operates a three horse farm, and has pitted his lot against the profits of his farm for this year.-Elberton Star. The Star, iml ain editorial, which fol lows, speaks of what can be d .no with a cabbage patch; and if it can bo (10110 therc it can bo dlone here, and elsewhero. Cabbage culture can be made to pay in Pickens county just as much as an.ywhere in the State. Dr. Smith, at Easley, has a plat of ground planted in onions, andl he proposes putting this plat in cabbage as soon as the onions are taken up. lie is planting for market, and incidentally for a profit, which he will make. '1 here is enough fruit that goes to waste in this county to keep a big cannery busy; then with the canning of vegetables and the krauting of cabbage, both for market, handsomne money can be made. The Star sa3s of cabbage culture: "Heretofore the raising of cabbage in the middle and lower portions of our state has been, in rlmost every every instance, a signal failure. The mountaineer comes down front the sun-capped mountains and verdlant hills of North Georgia every winter with loads of fine large cabbage, I which ho readily sells in our market. I Wo pay good prices, whilo we look ] w'tl envious eye on the mammoth I products of our sister section and vonder how this horticultural miracle has been wrought, we buy the seed i and make the attempt to grow this table delicacy as successfully as our I hardby neighbor from the upper por Lion of the state, with the. ever recur ring result --total failure. Is there any rer.so)n' wvhy weo of the mid dIo and1( lower sections should not achmiove the same success as the mountain region? Dr. B. F". Smith, >f this city, has solved the problem, mnd answers the question by his own lemonstrationi, that we can. "It seems that wve have not given, a he matter pr-oper study and assidu ma labor, or rather prompt action L md1( timely attention. "Now, the manner and matter ofq D~r. Smith's test. He sowecd in coldc frames last October, selecting the best and stan~dardc varieties. He placed them uder thin or open cover-, to as to give hiardinests and strength to t~he plants, thus preparing them to n r-esist and overcome the winter's cold anid to stand ag'ainst the attacks of every variety of climate made u1p t the vorgetablo life. T[here is, wve will say just hore, Ly way of par-enthesin, a close analogy between vegetablo and animal life.
