RLEASE FOLLOWERS HAVE ORGANIZATION Indications are that They are holding Daily meetings. lElease Leaders Vis it Colum bia. Columbia. .ian. 31.---Indications are lentiful that the followers of the ad ministration are planning to capture the next general assembly, and with this end in view are holding confer ences daily with the Illease leaders from every part of t1he State, who are constantly in Columbia during the sOs Sion of the legislature. The compact ness of the organization is beginning to attract attention in political cir cles. There is a (inlet . ling aroutnd the capitol that blease followers in the general assemnbly have a definite or ganization with a chairman and that daily meetings are held In which mat ters before the legislature are discuss e(1 and the political outlook through out the State generally, gone over. In some Ittarters it is whispered that the organization has headquarters in a suite of rooms in one of the buildings in Columbia, bout no Statement .has been made regarding this matter. In fact the scope of the undertaking is just beginning to leak ott a little. Gov. leu so not very many nights ago gave a stokter to his political fot lowte in the general assembly and it. is said that matters concerning leg islatiot anti organization were liscuss ed. Report s of th'at meeting are that attention was given to the need of building fit) and strengthening the ad ministration forces throughout the State, and the necleessity for eapturing the next Democratic Convention and the primary election machinery was imtpressed on the leaders who gather ed amotnt the Conference taeble. Of course the followers in the ad ministration circles are counting large ly on the strength of Gov lBlease in ils race for the senate. Then, up in Congressman .ohtnson's district Sam NidthlA, probal!y the best known of the Ulease lieutenants a running for congress. Over in the adjoining district that of Congressman Aiken, Assistant. Attorney General Dominick is seeking election to congress. 1 r. Dominick was for years law-partner of Gov. Blease and was his campaign manager in both of his races for gov ernor. In the Tenth dlistrict ltepre sentative Sapp, of Lancaster county, a promuinent leader in the present gen eral assembly of the Itlease forces, is running against Congressman Finley. Whether any of the other congress men w!ll- be opposed by any Blease fol lowers is not known. Hut the size of the ticket will be large. Then there is talk that Dr. Olin Sawyer, who went down in defeat in the Jones wave in Georgetown coun ty in 1912, is about to run in for gov ernor. It has been generally under stood that Mir. Charles Carroll Sims, of -Barnwell, would get the most of the Illease votes, but it is said that there Is a disposition,. especially among the extreme of the faction, to groom iDr. Sawyer' who did so mitch "war' talk" at the Illease c'onfer'ence duriing Fair' week. There is talk of 'a ndlidates ip) opplo sition to someIC of the State liouise of flelils, ggj all in all then orgatnizationi, If it existg, has cuti out ant ambtitiouts jt1'h$i'mt.-Grteenvillec News.

Very satis factory stands are obtained by sow iug clover seed on wheat, oats or oth er grains which may have been sown In the fall, and then ruinning a sharp tooth harrov: crosswise over the field, so as to g'ive the seed a slight cover ing. Utunning the barrow over it does not in.lure the grain crop, but increas es the yield, really acting as a cilti vaLion t, the crop. ('lover seed re dittirts a good, iri seed bed, anid sow lig In this way, it is sown under ideal conditions for securing a good stand. All throughout the WVest it is the reg ular custom to sow clover seed in the spring oft practically all fall-sown wheat or other grain crops. Sowing A lsike Clover and Alfalfa In Mixture with Red (lover. fled ('lover is considered as the standard forage' and soil-iniproving crop colubined, and is more widely and generally used than any other crop for this pntrpose. The 'itiantity ;owvn to thie acre is usually ten to t welve pounds. It Is an excellent plan when seeding to also sow two or :hiree pounds of alsike clover to the acre: an i if It is desired to inoculate the soil fol : dalfa, a seeding of three to live polttds of alfaltfa is desiralbe. Where these three clovers are sown in iix lure. N Ilbs of redl clover, : lbs of Alsike ('lover and 1 lbs of Alfalfa is the hquantity isially sown to the acre. Tle tiva ntage of sowing alsike clover are more on the lines of crop insur ance than otherwise, as alsike clover is surer to give i stand, and also ?tands more adverse conditions of dry or eeold weather than other clovers. Advantages of Sowing Alifa.lfit in ('lov-. er and (Grass Mixtures. The sowing of alfallta with both clovers and grasses Is lilke'y to in crease the yield considerably, and the sowing of alfalfa in mixtures with oth er grasses and clovers is one of the best ways of testing as to whether it is adapted to your land, and also of thoroughly inoculating your land, in case it is desired to put the land down to a pure alfalfa crop afterwards.
