OUR PRESIDENT ,
In all the aotivities of life <
there can be no higher test of <
greatness, than the results that 1
follow these activities. There i
must be certain endowments to <
enable one to achieve greatness, c
There must be iniative and con- <
struct! ve ability, force of character,
high moral purpose, zeal,
patience persistence and sublime ,
faith in oneself.
Never was there a finer example
of iniative ability than when
the Princeton professor emerged .
from his quiet retreat and
faced his fellow citizens from
state to state proclaiming the
New Freedom. So strongly, so
clearly were Mr. Wilson's arguments
presented that all the
people heard him gladly and
hopefully. A Wilson following
prang up like magic. The
National Democratic Convention
regsitered the choice of the party
and the people at the polls ratified
that decision.
Great things have been accomplished
during the first
half of President Wilson's administration.
The legistation
of the last Congress was the
most important in the history ]
of the country. That legisla- "
tion was suggested and urged ]
_ by the President. Congress was
V held together by a master hand
| and actually compelled to enact
I this legislation. i
Kidicled by adversaries as the *
school master of Congress, he did *
not control both houses but main J
tained the respect and good will 8
of those who answered the roll 1
call. Greater than his party, he c
reversed the platform upon which r
he was elected and made Con ^
gress vote against Panama toll (exemption.
r
Senator Simrr.onds,referring to c
the constructive work of Cong- 1
ress, initiated by the President, 1
said: *
"During no year of our history
and under no administration has
so much that makes for the peace, t
the happiness, the welfare, the *
greatness and clorv of our com. i
mon country been accomplished
as during the lastyear."
Here are summed up a few of j
Lof the great measures urged i
by the President and passed by *
Congress. *
A banking and currency bill j
with reserve banks throughout
the country to prevent panics
, and tightness of the money
marketA
tariir act to reduce the high a
cost of living. j
Income tax, transferring the s
burden of taxation lrom the poor v
man to the rich?an equlization t
I " * of (he burden of taxation, n
Amendment to the Con6titu- u
tion made effective, whereby
Senators are elected by the people.
i .
A railroad to open up Alaska.
Treaties with thirty governments,
deferring hostilities for
one year where disagreements
between nations arise,
t The Clayton Anti-trust Bill,
preventing interlocking directors,
stock watering, discrimination
in price and control by one
corporation to prevent competition.
Parcel post and rural delivery
perfected.
Not only have these important
things been accomplished
^ but owing to the wisdom and
caution of the President we
have been kept out of war with
Mexico. "Watchful waiting."

wanted to precipitate war, has j
proved to have, been the best ^
policy.
The greatness of President
?# *- ? /Wilson has been farther shown
by his dealing with Germany.
When the Lasitania was sunk the
situation was tense and danger^
ons. Put with a masterly hand
^ ' the President has conducted
I negotiations that have shown the s
I highest quality of statesman- *
I ship* This too when deserted bj
B his Secretary of State in the very
I i.onr of his direst need. To this
was added a personal loss of his
B gentle life companion. Amid ah
B the perplexities of the situation
and the personal trials President
Wilson has conducted the attain
H of his great office with dignity
m with courtesy and with the vers
H highest type of statesmanship
^B and patrotism.

It is ti topi a n for next
winter cover
crop.
There will be little liairy vetch
to be had in this country this
year and hairy vetch is the only
kind that Olemson College advit-l
< s Sooth Carolina farmers to sow. |
Oregon, or common vetch, does
not do very well in this State.
Most of 4he hairy vetch seed
sown in this country comes from
Kusria and the war has cut off
imprortations.
It will be possible, however,
for farmers to get plenty of burr
clover seed, and they are advised
to sow tl.is and crimson clover
for_their winter legumes.

this coming Fair sopi on attract*
on that onr qyn county and
neighboring counties will bring
bo it the be? producte of their
farms. The annual fair cannot
mly be made a season of family
ind friendly re-unions, but an
occasion for comparing farm proiucts
and learning much of the
best method of culture. The fair
nay be a veritable school of ininstry,
where all, both young
ind old, may learn the best ways
)f making farming a success
There will be some politics in
South Carolina next year, with
miphasis on the "some." There's
i score and more of big politici'
ins, each one of whom has a bee
n his bonnet?May the best man
vin!
It pays to trade at home. It
mya the community; it pays the
u^ai uiciuiiaiiii, miu most convincing
of all it pays the buyer.
Sot long ago a man living in
Uhesterfield ordered a cross-cut
>aw from a mail order house in
die north. He paid $2.25 for .he
law and 85 cents for express, a
:otal of $3.10. He could have
bought the same saw from a
Jhesterfield merchaht for $2.75.
[lepaid cash of course; he could
lave bought on time at home.
3n this deal the town lost; the
merchant lost; the buyer lost;
This performance is repeated
vith nearly every order sent out
:rom town.
Let Chesterlield County take
'ull advantage of the opportunity
o be offered by the coming
-Lome Department Institutes.

Fortunately, a large quantity
of burr clover seed was made
this year and County Demonstrator
W. J. Tiller can furnish
information as to where it can
be obtained.
The demand is so strong that
it is not probable that prices will
be lower than at present.
The most economical method
of supplying the much-needed
humus to the soil is by growiug
winter legumes and turning under
in the spring.
THE RED SPIDER
AND DRY WEATHER
The exceedingly dry weather
of the past few days has had a
decided effect in the spreading
of the red spider. The fact this
kind of weather is so helpful to
the destructive activities of the
pest is an imperative reason for
conetant vigilence and effective
action on the part of the farmers.
me recent rains may retard the
the spider's activities to some
extent bnt cannot be relied upon
for any considerable aid in that
respect.
An eroneous statement was
made on this subject last week,
when it was said that dry weather
was unfavorable to the spread
of the red spider. It is all tco
favorable to his reign of destruction.
Pee Dee Summer Normal
Encouraging reports are received
of the work done at the Pee
Dee Summer Normal. There
were more than 150 teachers in
attendance and the course of
study was comprehensive and
thorough. Excellent lectures
were delivered by prominent
educators. j
An excellent feature of the
school was the wnrk rlnnn ho- thA <
Home Demonstration Workers.
For some unaccountable reason,
Chesterfield, withits vast resources
in material, was not represented
in this department. In
other lines of work Chesterfield
was unsurpassed.
Our Correspondents
Good letters have been received
from Yaughan School House
and Snow Hill. Owing to the
crowded condition of the paper,
they were omitted this week.
