The Russians have won a good many battles on paper which were never won on land or sea or in the air, but it looks as if Constantinople is going to outdo Petrograd in the matter of victories achieved with a fountain pen. The Ottoman war office has made a good start in the production of "official" war fiction. Its initial effort in this direction is a story concerning the defeat of a British war vessel by a Turkish mofnr hr*a f VV& MVUVt That looks pretty hard to beat,but as it is the Turkish war office's first attempt, there is good reason to believe that it will presently be surpassed as soon as the imaginative Turk, charged with the duty of telling the world how Turkey is licking her enemies,gets his hand in and acquires a little more experience. The first stories sent out from Petrograd were tame compared with others that followed a little later; and it is a reasonable assumption that the same thing will be true in the case of Constantinople. At present Turkish motor boats are beating British warships, which is pretty good for a starter. If Constantinople's imaginative faculty expands with the pas sage of time as rapidly as did that of Petrograd, we shall soon read of the defeat of a Cossack corps by ten Turkish school-boys armed with sling-shots and shall revel erelong in the description of how the Sultan's favorite bantam rooster drove his spurs into the brains of three hundred Muscovite infantrymen while they slept in the fancied security of their bivouac in the wilds of the Caucasus.?News & Courier.

The folio win? statement has been issued by E W Dabbs, head of the Farmers' State Union: To the Farmers of South Carolina: The Legislature has met in extra session and adjourned without doin? much to help. The limiting of cotton acreage to one-third of the land actually cultivated I think is a step in the right direction; but it sho ' * have gone farther and plan ned for markets for farm produce, and it should have made an appropriation for supplying seed grain and winter legumes to farmers not able to buy them. Instead of this real help, it wasted much time on a bond issue of very doubtful helpfulness. Fortunately this died without the farce of an election on it on twelve hours' notice. The warehouse measure will be of great service, if it is not confined to a few big central warehouses, but is made to cover the State so that every community can have one so cheaply constructed that there will be very little idle capital in the years when the farmers will sell cotton, and yet with the State's protection in times like this for the cotton that can be more cheaply stored and insured in small lots in the vicinity of the gins and where the farmers will patronize them. But, after all is said and done, it remains with the farmers to work out their own destiny. We must organize: First, because "in union there is strength" to do many things the individual cannot do alone; and, second, because it is the only way we can secure legislation that will really help us with our problems. We have the Farmers' Union as an organization. Some of us in many counties are holding it together and doing effective work. A few joined at first for selfish or political pur poses. These have all dropped out and those who are now keeping up the organization have the highest motives?the building up of an organization for educational development in scientific agriculture, social and fraternal advantages, and the benefits of co-operation in collective buying and selling. Will you come with us? We need you and you , need us. We should like very much to hear from every school district in the State within the next few weeks, fipt vour DeoDle together and notify the State president, or the State secretary, J Whitner Reid, Columbia, S C.
