Ouzts, member of the house of represen tatives from Greenwood county and former state senator, announced last night his candidacy for con gress from the third district, com posed of the counties of Oconee, Pickens, Anderson, Abbeville, Mc Cormick, Greenwood, Newberry, Saluda and Edgefield. Mr. Ouzts mailed his entrance fee to J. Wilson Gibbes, treasurer of the state executive committee, yester day and he is now in the race with Congressman Fred H. Dominick, who has announced his candidacy for re-election and John C. Taylor, clerk of court of Anderson county, who also announced last week. It appeared unlikely last night that there would be more than the three candidates in the race since Butler B. Hare, former representa tive from the second district, stated in Washington that he would not be a candidate, having decided to return to Saluda, reopen his lav/ of fice and look after his farm. Mr. Hare said the redistricting plan adopted at the last session of the South Carolina Legislature practi cally eliminated him “for the pres ent,” according to an Associated Press dispatch from Washington. He also was quoted as saying that he would not be a candidate for the United States Senate. Mr. Ouzts led the ticket and was elected to the house in the first primary by a very large vote in 1930 and he also served the county in the state senate from 1924 to 1928. He also led the ticket in this county in his race for governor in 1926. Mr. Ouzts is recognized as a champion of strictest economy in government. X t Annual Farm Waste Equals Paper Supply Raw material enough to make several times the quantity of paper, as well as fiber board, acetic acid, alcohols, acetone, and charcoal, re quired by the country is produced each year in the United States in the straw of wheat, oats, barley, rye, and rice, the stalks of corn and sugar cane ,and the wild marsh grasses, says the United States De partment of Agriculture. These farm wastes probably exceed 260,- 000,000 tons annually. Although manufacturers know that these farm wastes contain enough raw materials to supply mafny of the country’s needs, the materials are usually so bulky and the cost of gathering them is so high that they cannot compete with other more compact and more easily handled materials. When any are used, the demand takes on ly a small part of the total supply. Most of the products mentioned are now made from other raw mater ials, such as wood and corn. 'The department, through the Bureau of Chemistry and Soils and other branches, seeks constantly to discover new, practical uses for farm waste products. It recently found that a cheap satisfactory cellulose, base material for rayon, could be obtained from bagasse, a sugarcane waste. 1 x t Heavy Rains Over County Past Week Heavy rains over the county dur ing the past week are causing some damage to grain harvested and not yet housed. Wind, lightning and hail accompanied some of the clouds. Lightning set fire to Mr. S. H. Talbert’s barn in the Buffalo community Friday evening about 7 o’clock, causing the loss of two head of livestock, the barn and a large quantity of corn, hay and grain, while less than a mile-from there hail practically destroyed the crops on Mr. Calhoun Palmer s place. Hail fell in several other sections of the county, but no other serious damage has been reported. tx* * Daily Thought.

X June 1 Crop Report SOUTH CAROLINA: Prelimln- ary estimates indicate below aver age grain and fruit crops in South Carolina this year.-Deficient mois ture was the principal cause of low grain yields, while cold March weather and a heavy May drop are generally responsible for the short frifit crops. WINTER WHEAT with a condit- ioil of 65 per cent compares with 81 last year and a ten-year average of 77 per cent. The crop is estimated at 560,000 bushels, which is 19 per cent below last year’s production but about the average amount made during the five years 1924- 1928. The condition of OATS is report ed at 65 per cent compared with 83- last year and a ten-year average of 79 per cent. No official quantity estimate will be made until July, but it appears now that the crop will be about 16 per cent below last year’s production. The RYE condition of 67 per cent indicates a crop of 52,000 bushels which is about a third less than last year and 27 per cent below the five-year average production. PEACHES are reported as 42 per cent of a full crop which compares with 78 per cent last year and the ten-year average of 63 per cent. This condition indicates a total crop of 880,000 bushels which is about 50 per cent of last year’s rec ord crop but only about 4 per cent below the average production for the years 1924-1928. FARM LABOR supply is reported as 62 per cent greater than the de mand, which compares with 60 per cant above demand last month and 34 per cent above demand a year ago. Condition of other crops on June 1 and the ten-year average, res pectively, follows: TAME HAY, 66 and 77; WILD HAY. 64 and 76; ALFALFA. 70 and 82; PASTURES, e* 7 and 78; APPLES, 39 and 62; F"ARS, 40 and .60; IRISH POTA TOES, 54 and 69.
