CUT YOUR COTTON ACREAGE We make no apology for publishing a great ileal this week on th subject of a reduction in cotton. In other columns we print the pungent resolutions of the Cotton Convention recently held at Columbia, and the observations of The Augusta Chronicle, on the same subject. And following is some opinion voiced by The Atlanta Constitution. Georgia's interests and South Carolina's interests are identical in the matter of the price of cotton next fall. Says The Constitution: ' "Any farmer with reasoning facilities must be able to see the logic of the situation, and that a cotton acreage this year corresponding to that of former years, with normally favorable weather conditions, will spell disaster. "Appreciating the logic, the seriousness and the peril of the situation, any farmer who plants a normal acreage of cotton this year in the belief that enough others will plant less than a normal acreage to hold the aggregate crop down to a point in suring profitable returns to all will stamp himself a profi glutton, unpardonnbly selfish and greedy and unmindful of the public welfare! "Cut cotton acreage one third, and crop*, on the remaining two third*' "Nor is this any time to lose in deciding upon this policy, for 'the next few weeks will tell next fall's cotton story.'" p I There !^viiu ii here; and if "Th With 3 further pa | Name . .

Now watch (he contagion spread until Chesterfield county has a perfect network of good roads. r 1 THE IMMIGRATION PROBLEM t , t The question of emigration from K Europe to the United States is going j , be one big question when peace isj 1 declared. No country has had such * an advertisement in Europe as has l the United States. Millions of Europeans from France, Italy, England and even Germany will be flocking to our shores. The next session of Congress will have to give serious 1 attention to this most important nyt- ' ter. '1 hat there should be some re- 1 striction of immigration into the 1 United States is an undeniable propo- : sition. This country should not be 1 the dumping ground for anarchists, ' the Bolshevists, the laine and the 1 lazy and we hope some very drastic A laws will be enacted to prevent this condition of affairs. Thomas Jefferson said when Ame- i rica w'as younger than it is now, "It 4 is time we had become more Ameri- t canized." t The next congress and President j Wilson will have weighty matters to determine, serious problems to solve, but probably none more important than admission to this country of the v hordes of people from the war worn, * devastated lands across the sea. Hon. I Frederick C. Howe, commissioner of immigration at the port of New York, t lias recently returned from Europe and he brings the news that probably 1 five million Europeans, wearied by ' the war, are turning their eyes and -heir thoughts to new homes in America He says: f "France has hwr thousands ready , m nunc. itaiy iias even more, unii | Kngland will be largely represented | when a propitious time has come. Hut ] it is Germany that has the most num- , emus and most eager company of | hose who would be emigrants to this | country." ? "The country rests on a solid rock- < ribbed foundation of old 'paid up subscribers,' " said Hill Nye. hww mmiummmmmmmmmmmm THE 'On the Road to is nothing complicate ts the every requiremen vou cant hna the same mf \e Pilot Spe Protects Y ou If You Die Supports Yoi If You A re Disabled Provides For If You Live You Can Get out any obligation on my part, f irticulars in regard to "The Pilot i ..

SHE HAD FREQUENT AND SEVERE ATTACKS MRS. LANDRETH SAYS SHE WAS HARDLY ABLE TO DO HER HOUSEWORK GLADLY GIVES DETAILS Declares She Believes Tanlac Will Do As Much for Others as for Her "Tanlac is a fine medicine and it certainly did prove a fine tonic for me," declared Mrs. II. C. Landrcth, of Blake St., Greenville. "I suffered from a badly weakened, run down condition, and I was hardly able to do my housework. I was subject to I frequent and severe headaches, and every time one of these attacks came I I would hardly be able to do anything for two or three days. "My appetite had almost completely left me, I had indigestion badly , and at times it would keep me from ' resting well at night. Really, though, i I could not sleep well at any time. "It has been about six months since I stopped taking Tanlac, and I took three bottles. Tanlac quickly broke up those spells of sick headache and i have not had an attack since I be,^an taking the remedy. My appetite was improved a great deal, my sys tern was built up and my stomach was toned up so my food agreed with me ind I am not troubled with indigestion now. The remedy also quieted ny nerves, and I got so I could sleep well. "I certainly am glad to tell the public of Teniae, for I believe it will do as much for others as it did for me. I am glad to recommend this medicine, for I consider it worthy of recommendation." Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is sold j by The Chesterfield Drug Co., Ches- ; terfield, S. C.; T. E.
