NOT ENOUGH IN THE COUN TY FOR DEMAND NONE AVAILABLE But Few Planters Have More Wheat Than Needed for Con Sumption and Planting. "Whore will Anderson county far mers get soed wheat enough to sow" was the question asked last night by one weil known business man while a discussion was going on as to the amount of wheat to be planted this season by local planters. The speaker went on to say that practically the entiro available supply of seed wheat in Anderson county has already been exhausted and Anderson planters have not yet begun to sow wheat. All tdd. not more than 10 or 12 An derson county planters have ever sow ed wheat on an extensive scale and each year they have been planting the same wheat. Of the few in the county now sowing wheat to any considerable extent they have been using tho same seed used hy their grandfathers for the last 50 v>r CO yearB and these men had but little seed wheat to offer for sale. Throughout the country the same cry ?B being heard. ""Se?>d wheat ls scarce and we cannot supply the de mand." Anderson county's supply of seed wheat seem3 to have boen sold out and when the planters prepare to BOW about 20 limos as much wheat in this county as was ever produced here before, they will be up agalnBt the proposition of finding seed enough to plant. To show that the situation ls se rious, Furman Smith, tho wholesale seedsman, when seen yesterday and asked hy a reporter for The Intelli gencer as to the truth about wheat being scarce, exhibited letters where bc returned checkB amounting to more than $400 during tho inst week tc planters in tho lower part of tho State. All ot these planters desired seed wheat for immediate use and the An derson sued houso could not fill their orders. It is said that this condition is by no means confined to South Carolina and that other states aro In the same fix. Given F.Igbteen Montos.

PEACE PLA?SS ARE THREATENED (Continued from Page One;)* on Villa. The letter, however, was mailed several days ago, before Car? ransa's most recent appeal for tirne to discuss further the situation with thc convent on officials. WASHINGTON, Nov.' 17.-Delayed dispatches today from American con sular agcntB at Aguan Calientes ' and Mexico City confirmed earlier reports that General Carranza had agreed to resign provided General Villa similar ly retired. General Guetlerrez, named provisional president by the Aguas Calientes convention, has approved Carranza's condition and unless Villa himself upsets tho arangements peaco in Mexico seemed assured tonight. General Carranza's proposals pro vided* that the first chief would de liver the executive power on the fol lowing conditions: First. General Carranza would re linquish his command in the Constitu tionalist army to General Pablo Gon zales, commander of the east. Second. Oeneral Villa would retire as command ;r of the north, placing his troops under the orders of Gutier rez. Third, both Generals Villa, and Car ranga should leave the country and should give evidence of that fact by appearing at Havana, Cuba, on or be fore November 25. In accepting Carranza's conditions, American consular agents believe Gutierrez spoke on behalf of and af ter consultation with General Villa, who previously had announced that he had placed his own destiny tn thc hands of Gutierrez and would do whatever he requested. No word bas come from George Carrothers, Amer ican consolar agent, accompanying General Villa, saying what the gen eral's plans won ld be. - There ls some A ?bt tn. well Inform ed quarters hero whether either Villa or Carranza wilt actually leave Mex ico. It is believed that when Carran zo delivers the executive power to Gutierrez at Mexico City the conven tion will ask Carran sa to remain, out of consideration for his distinguished services to Mexico. Similarly it ls be lieved Villa will be asked to stay and that the convention will seek the* co operation of ull leaders hi reconstruct ing the national government. Secretary Bryan felt so relieved over thr favorable turn of events tn Mexico that he left tonight with Mrs. Bryan for a short stay at hts winter borne In Miami. Fla. He will return next Tuesday. Secretary Daniels said today that he had given no ordere for American warships at Vera Crus to withdraw, but they probably would be sent away next week immediately after General Funston's forces evacuated the port One o rtwo vessels probably will be kept within easy reach of Mexican ports until order le completely re storr.1. ? j Personal j Guy Thompson of tho Lebanon sec lon was In the city yesterday.
