The recent tirade which Gov. Allen,
of Kansas, delivered against Iie
South's ootton holding movement Ias
.,erved to bring out one thing .which
will he worth a great deal to farmers
of this section if properly considerd.
Kansas an(d the other cereal growing
tates have planted the greatest acre
age in their history In 'wheat in order
to profit by the price fixed by the gov
ernment. In Increasing the acreage
in wheat the avrearg in vorn had to
be reduced. A shortage in corn with
(onse qulien t high prices is likely to rv
silt. To the man who grows all cot
on and buys his corn. this should be
1ood for thought.
PROU'D OFTil F1al7. .
I.aurens occulies today, In regard to
her returning soldiers, just about such
a position as the bashful lover does
who is already condeined to servitude
by the fair maiden by hils side, but who
still remains speechless when the fate
ful cluestion would be asked. Ile
doesn't know what to do or say, but
just trusts to luck and to her that
things will come out. aright. Trusting
to her, incidentally, is often a very
safe plan. Dut iaurens hardly knows
,what to do for her returning soldiers.
She is anxious to express a sense of
appreciation and pride In the records
her soldiers of the Thirtieth Division
and all other divisions have nade, yet
too many celebrations and too many
speeches are not always to the taste
of the soldiers. They are human. rhey
want to go home, enjoy the pleasures
and treasures of homielife and forget
about the army and marching. .We
want to honor them all and do honor
them all, but it may be expressed by
a simple deference to -what may be
their wish-to be let alone for a time
while they renew their home ties. greet
their old firends and then make plans
for the fiture. Inut, whatever may be
the case, L aur lens is prolud of the bril
liant record her soldiers have made.

FINE MIlERSHIP
IN CANNINO CLUBS
Laurens County has over One lundred
Boys and Girls Working Demonstra.
tion Plots.
That Laurens county has over one
hundred boys and girls working gar
den plots under government supervi
slon is 'brought out in a letter recently
sent out by Miss Daisy Harris, county
Agent. Although Laurenrs already has
more 'tihan -the minimum number ex
pected from each county, Miss liarlis
Is workin'g energetically to secure
more meimbers.
The letter 'which she had sent out to
club menibers was as follows:
Dear Club 1loinbers:
In counting up the number of those
who have promised to work one-tenth
acre garden plots and keep a record
of their work I find that over one
hundred 'bors and girls have given in
their names, and some have not yet
definitely decided.
I0'very Home Demonstration Agent
in the State was asked to secure
eighty-five memwrs for the Canning
Club, so you see Laurens County has
enrolled considerably over this num
ber. But what will count in making
Laurens a banner county in cluh
woik, will not lbe the number w'ho en
rolled in this work, 'but the number,
who at the close of lle season, send
in a good record book.
I hope none of you will lose your
enthusiasm during the coming months,
become discouraged andl( drop out of
the 'work. If you once undertake a
jolb, have the back-bone to put it
through to the best of your ability. Of
course you are going to meet with (Is
couragements. I am here to help you,
so please 'write me if you need help or
inforiat ion at any ime. If you have
not received your seeds or instructions
for ibeginning' work, write me at once.
Your tomato seeds should be sown in
hot beds as soon as posalble.
The roads to some sections of the
county have been so had that I have
not 'been alble to reach some of you.
If you care to join in club work, please
send in your name as it is not yet too
late to join.
It the Poutory Olub I have enroll
ed about thirty menibers. I am ask
ing Poultry Club members to secure
two or three settings of purebred
eggs.
I trust that work will not be all that
we will get from our year together.
We hope to have several social gather
ings during tie year, community fairs,
prizes at end of season. tc. The win
nerstof the scholarships to the Short
course at Winthrop College will be
1111nouInced soon1. Wishinug you suiceess,
