No More CheapPotash -'-*~ Government Will Probably Put High Protective Tariff on Potash Washington, June 10.?Protection Of the potash industry in, this country through establishment of a govern -controlled licensing system was "a*3f&d .before the house ways and mesons committee today by represen tatives of the industry, the bureau of Blinds, and the geological survey. They delated the fate of the industry- de peimed upon action by congress as it had hot been developed sufficiently to meetSuccessfully foreign competition. '*^!here is. $50,000,000 invested in this^industry," declared Myron M. Par ker^ -attorney for the United States Potash Producers' Association. "And; tmless^; something is done immediately j the'entire industry will be dissolved, and thousands of employees thrown j out of work. Furthermore, the coun- ; try w311 be dependent again upon for- I eign countries for the material, as it; ?was before the war." Mr. Parker said arrangements were] made sometime ago for shipment of large: quantities of potash from Ger-I %any- in exchange for food, but that j the plan was abandoned after pro-j ducers here had shown this would ruin j the industry. He added that the sit nation once more was. critical, as con tracts had been made for importing | 20,000 tons from Alsace during the -fi?ct three months. A. G. White.' of the bureau of mines told-"the committee one-half of the. vjpotash needed by this country was j 'pfodaeed here at a cost of about 25 ^percent higher than the foreign pro- I ""?jiSeiJ He added, however, that withm ?ye-years potash could be produced in theJJnited States as cheaply as in any other country, because there are great "?e^posits in the Western States. fcTe need for restrictions on the im pjortation of oxalic acid was urged by) "liw? Emery. Bradford, Pa., of the American Alkali and Potash Company, who declared this industry was in the, same stag? of development as the { potash industry . Representatives of other industries wnieh grew up during the war will appear before the committee tomor row to recommend favorable action on protective legislation. Winthrop Year's Report "t: I ... . .-?-. ? '"<-?' Br. Johnson Submits Statement Of Work of Girls' College for Last Twelve Months. Rock Hill, June 10.?At the annual meeting of the board of trustees of WJmthrop College, President D. B. Johnson submitted his annual report, in. Which he reviewed the work of the^session which has just closed and made recommendations for the com ing session. Dr. Johnson states that notwith-! / ?tandmg?^he influenza epidemic in thej fall and early spring the work of the] student body during the past session was hetter than ever before. Only 18 of the. entire student body fell below tie passing grade of 70 at the close of the* first term and only 34 at the - close of the second term. Full re- j "ports for the third term, which hasJ s just closed, have not yet been made up. ? During the sess'ion. Dr. Johnson States, the extension work conducted '?'-?fcy the college for the benefit of the - schools, the teachers and the people ?throughout the State was broadened and strengthened. There has never been a wider or stronger demand for -Winthrop .graduates as teachers than during this year, he added. The college was conducted last ses sion upon a per capita appropriation Of $5U for maintenance for 1,454 stu dents in all departments except the] extension department. This per capita] 53*.r0priation is smaller than that j made for most institutions in this} country similar to Winthrop. During the 24 years that Winthrop! .College has been established here the j1 growth of the institution has beenr very remarkable. The college campus! j& now twice as large as when the | college began its work here after its] removal from Columbia. During this j pextad.inany new buildings, including one of the best equipped gymnasiums in t&e State, and many new depart ments of study have been added. At present a dormitory building is under' COttsiSructhm which when completed .wi? accommodate between 2no and ?0<? students. This building will be ready for use when the fall term opens in September. Winthrop, sine*1 its removal \to Rock Hill, has paid over $85.000 for lots and farms. None - Of this amount was appropriated by the State legislature, but was raised i from other sources. Winthrop will have 125 officers and! teachers jiext year, Dr. Johnson stat ed. Winthrop has always provided i both practical and cultural education] for women and to this end has always] offered normal, industrial, commer-i cial and general literary courses. Aj course for the training of teaehers of j physical education has been added tfor the coming session. . Dr. Johnson's report shows that aj profit of $4,0'29.23 was made this past j year on the farm conducted by the! college. I Dr. Johnson announced that on ac-j count of the continued high cost ofj living the charge for boarding stu-j dents has been increased $1 per month for the next session, making; the charge $ln per month for hoard.' furnished room. heat, lights and hum- ? dry instead of $15 per month as for j . the last session. i -r?

Wanr amaker Remains j Cotton Chairman ; Hope to Have South Carolina Organized First Coloumbia. June 12.?At a meet- H ing of the central committee of che j South Carolina Cotton Association,^ yesterday, plans were perfected for a j < whirlwind campaign extending into] ] every'school district of the State -for! 1 the perfection of the permanent or-j ganization of the association. B.

One of the best experts in the South on organization will be secured, it was stated, and the committee hopes to have South Carolina the first State in the cotton belt to be organized for the permanent association. The South Carolina association will be a mem ber of the American Cotton Associa to.n as will the associations of the other States of the cotton belt. At the meeting of the committee yesterday J. Skottowe Wanna maker of St. Matthews, who has been presi- j > dent of the South Carolina association! ( since its organization and who was] recently elected president of the L American Cotton Association, asked that he be relieved of the presidency ^ of the South Carolina association but j the members of the committee would} not agree to it. The members of thej* committee urged that hp retain the j -j position at least until after the XewL Orleans convention and if possible un-i tii the State has been thoroughly or ganized. The central committee last night is sued this statement: "Mr. Wanna maker has devoted the larger part of his time to the work of the cotton association since last January. As president of the South Carolina asso-j ciation he has conducted a worldwide] campaign of education and in forma-3 tion on the cotton situation that isj already proving very valuable to the South. Friends fearing that he was taxing his energies since his election] to the presidency of the American] Cotton Association had urged that he] give up ill" presidency of the South Carolina association. "The committee feels that it is for the besi interests of the organization in South Carolina that he remain, at its head for a while longer at least. He has done a magnificent work in this State and we desire thai he re main actively at the head of the work in this state until after we have per fected a permanent organization at least. Xot oiii;.

Director General Hines Issues Order to Protect Government Against Over Expenditure Washington, June 10.?Maintenance work on railroads has progressed so j favorably owing to the mild weather this year thai Director General Hines has issued orders to all regional di rectors to protect the government against over expenditures of this kind and stop all unnecessary work. Under its contract with the various "roads the government is obligated to maintain the roadbed and equipment in as good condition as when taken over, but is not expected to make im-j provements involving expense to the public. ?'The weather this year has been so good that we have been enabled to do much more maintenance work than is usual." it was said by W. T. Tyler, chief of the division of operations.! "if the same pace was kept up. the railroad administration would spend more money than is necessary. j ?'it is the practice to do mainten-j ance work as early as possible, then reduce the working forces. This; year we happened to start earlier and) consequently finished earlier. 1 do; nor believe the present order will I cause any serious unemployment.!

I Mr. Djin X Gray, chief, animal in dustry division. North Carolina. Agri cultural Experiment Station, says the "soft hog" problem can be solved if 'certain feeding rules mentioned here ' after in this article are observed; and i the Southern farmer can continue ro i fatten his porkers on peanuts and soy j beans, which he must do to hold down I production costs. ! At the 20th annual convention Of the I association of Southern Agricultural I Workers. Birmingham. Ala., in Feb :ruary last, the "soft hog" was one of i the livesr subjects under discussion, jas the pockets of Southern farmers j I were being touched by the dockage j or price discrimination of two cenis : per "pound and sometimes more, being jmade on the central markets against ! peanut-fed hogs. I At the meeting referred , to the j packers' views of the question under .consideration were presented by John ; J. Ferguson of Swift AL- Company as i follows: ! Soft and Oily Hogs in the Packing j House. "From the packer's standpoint the j South offers great possibilities for in j creased production of nogs with de j Sirable market quality. The oppor tunities for diversified crop production I are many as farmers may produce, a Irotation^of feeds available during ev | ery month of the year, so that hogs in (favorable sections of the South can be I produced as cheaply as in the corn j belt States, and with proper selection j of feeds, of such quality that pork and other product from them may be [marketed to advantage in competitive markets. Southern farmers who produce and market soft and oily hogs must ex pect to receive a lowerVrice lor them than they would Cor hard hogs be cause pork and other products from soft hogs are not wanted in northern markets and cannot be exported to foreign countries. While it is true that hams and bacon from peanut-fed hogs are frequently of attractive qual ity, northern consumers who are ac customed to firm products do n?t care to buy them except at greatly reduced prices. Hog production in the South is in creasing so fast that local markets and demand in the South cannot much longer absorb all that is produc ed. This simply means that unless Southern farmers produce the kind of hogs that can be shipped to outside markets their prices and profits must be considerably restricted. From a packer's standpoint the fol lowing points are the principal argu ments against soft ami oify hogs: 1. Owing to lack of firmness and attractiveness soft and oily carcass.-3 cannot be exported to foreign coun tries as it would be impossible to land them in foreign retail markets in at tractive condition. 2. This means their sale and dis tribution must be confined to South ern markets, which cannot long con- ! tinue to take all the hog products pro- 1 dticed in the central South. J Z. When not given a hard finish " with corn, barley or other hardening feed Southern hogs are usually ship ped at light weights, which means a larger number of hogs to make u> a carload with a much heavier shrink in shipment than would be shown by a load of heavy hogs. This means great er loss all along the line. 4. Soft and oily hogs do not stand shipment so well as hard hogs. They , usually reach market in less attrac tive condition, therefore they sell for j lower prices. Carcass yield of soft and oily j hogs is less pound for pound of live ; weight than from hard hogs. fi. Hams, bacon and all pork cuts | from soft and oily hogs show an unusually heavy shrink in curing?an other item of heavy loss to the pack er. 7. Soft and oily carcasses do not chill properly in the cooler. They never become firm enough to permit cutting into economical shapely cuts so necessary to present an attractive appearance to the retailer and con sumer. They show a very heavy waste in retail cutting. 5. At ordinary storage tempera tures it is impossible to prevent hams, bacon and standard cuts of soft and oily hogs from continuing to drip oil. which means additional shrink and loss of food value at every stage in handling. This continuous shrink soon 1 results in the meat presenting a worn I and stale appearance, which greatly discounts its attractiveness to the con sumer and decreases its selling value. 9. Hams and bacon from soft snd oily hogs show an excessive waste in cooking and are therefore very expen sive to the consumer. Consumers soon discover this and in their buy ing discriminate against them. In. Soft oily lard is very difficult to handle commercially without (b ? additon of hardening materials. This means that good pure prime steam lard cannot be produced ami sold from soft and oily begs. 11. 't'he trimmings from soft and oily hogs are very undesirable for sausage making, in fact, if is abso lutely impossible to use them in hu-.h grade sausage sold under nationally j advertised brands." Beini; interested in this problem and knowing thai .Mr. Gray had condu-Med some feeding experiments; 1 asked I him to favor nie with bis views. :f he was prepared to give out any infor mation: and ii gives me pleasure to] recommend to the render for his eare-j ful consideration the following sri'O-J nients covering his views on tin p>->>'.*i lem: 1. We should advise the farmers to continue to use such soft-produc-j ihg feeds as peanuts and soy beans. 2. Ii" we do not do this we just as well discontinue advising our South-? ern farmers to produce pork. j We should advise them ? use j some corn, say 1 half ration. al< ngi with such crops as soy beans and peanuts. We should give tbis advice for t wo reasons: (a 1 This is the besi and most protable way of disposing of :i corn j crop . ib) It prevents the body of the animal from becoming as soft as when a green crop is used by itself. 4. We should advise our farmers j that the public does not want soft | hogs, and we should urge them not ! to place Th.'? kind products on th. ma r?; . We should advise them to h<?!< the hogs for a finishing or hardenin: perilr?I after the peanut and soy bean crops are exhausted. And !h<- farmer should be mud' ro know thai ibis finishing period ,:? a profitable one. 7. If Che hogs have }><?<?>) fed a recommended aboye, we should ad vise our i-.ivmc-v* jo finish the hog*? for thirty days on a ration made up of two-thirds corn plus one-third cot ton seed meal plus a continued finish ing period of six or eighi day? on corn plus any grain other than cotton seed rneal.' When ihis is done the bodies of .the hogs will be brought back to a norn standard of firmness. tS. We should work on th<- packers *nd induce them to lie sure and pay '?hard" prices for hard hogs and "soft" prices for soft Kogs." G. A. Cardwell, Agricultural & Industrial Agent.
