DEFIED BY COL. WATSON
Doesn't Give a Hurrah about Blease
or Whether his Oftlce is Made Elec

Again?
F.. J. Watson, commissioner of agri
culture of South Carolina, 1b not trou
bling bis mind about what Governor
Cole Bleasc thinks about him person
ally or his administration of that of
fice said Commissioner Watson In, At
lanta Friday according to a dispatch
In The Augusta Chronicle. Further
he is not concerned very much over
whether or not the present session of
the South Carolina legislature takes
the appointing power away from the
governor and ve sts it in the General
Assembly.
The dispatch continues "Commis
sioner Watson arrived In Atlanta from
Raleigh, accompanied by J. G. An
derson originator of the now famous
I "Rock Hill Plan" for the purpose of
'conferring with state officials PUd
houds of the Farmers' Union rehitlvo
to an active campaign in Georgia to
Inaugurate canvass in this state.
"You know my ofllcc is an appoin
tive one in South Carolina, coming
under the governor, subject to ap
proval of tln> legislature. Governor
I Bleaso and I have never been close
I together on anything. Ho had some
criticism to make on my department
in his message, but it didn't worry me
in the least. 1 have the unique dis
tinction, perhaps, of having the ofllce
seek me, instead of seeking the ofllce.
I am on my second term now. A bill
is pending in the legislature to take
the appointment from the governor,
and put it in the hands of the assem
bly, but 1 am not concerned with what
they do about it. As an indication
that I am not, 1 am now away on a
trip that will last some weeks trying
to promote the Hock Hill plan."
This afternoon Commissioner Wat
son. Commissioner Hudson, Mr. An
derson and R. F. Duckworth, president
of the Georgia Farmers' Union, held I
a conference with Governor Brown |
relative? to beginning a campaign In
this state for the Rock Hill scheme
for cotton acreage reduction. It is
probably that it will be taken up otll
clally in Georgia In a short time, and
funds raised for beginning an active
campaign in every important cotton
producing county to secure pledges for
reducing ncrengo.
"We have already effectively organ
ized is out of the 42 counties in South
Carolina;" said Mr Anderson, "and wo
have an energetic organization that
Will coon have the entire state organ

three ween.-. The tiling that pleases
me so much is the spirit of co-opera
tion had from all farmers, from the
biggest to the smallest. The average
reduction pledges so far in my state
will be about per cent.
"in my Judgment this Is the only
sure and definite scheme foi the farm
ers of the South to work out their own
salvation and keep prices tip to proper
figures?by cutting production."
Commissioner Watson and Mr. An
derson will spond today and tomorrow
in Atlanta and then go to Montgomery
Other points they will visit are Jack

City, Baton Rouge. New Orleans and
points in Texas.

A Strange Story.
Argvle. Mich.?Mrs. Win. II. Carson,
In a letter from Argyle. says: "I was
almost wild with pain In my head, and
other severe pain*, due to womanly
troubles. Cardul gave me great relief
at once. Further use of Cardul raised
me from my bed of agony. Cardul sav
ed my life, and I uan't be thankful
enough for what It did for me." Wheth
er seriously sick, or simply ailing,
take Cardul. the woman's tonic. As
a general tonic for women, to Improve
the appetite and build up the consti
tution, Cardul is in a class by itself.
Those who have used ft say it does
the work: it relieves, it cut es. .Try It.
