DISTRIBUTE SUGAR
s
The War Department has sold to
the United States Sugar Kqualizntion
Board 37,000,000 pounds of refined
sugar. This sugar will be placed on
the market at once to relieve the
shortage that is being caused largely
by hoarding. George A. Zabriskie,
President of the Bourd, declares thai
there is plenty of raw sugar in the
country and that the price should not ,
be above f 1 cents. The refineries are
now working night and day und their
combined output is 41,175,000 pounds
daily. The refineries have not sent a
pound of sugar ubroad in two wcekty ,
and will not vend any until tho home |
market is supplied. <
"Sugur in abundant in the United
\ States and if it were not for profiteers
and nervous housewiv.es encouraged <
.to hoard it there would be enough for <
every legitimate demand and a thirty- ?
day reserve supply in addition," dc- I
clarcd Mr. Zabriskie.
"The chief factor in thin apparent 1
shortage, which is temporary, is
canneries and confectionery factories
which failed to anticiputu tneir nor- "
^ mal demands and held off ordering W
their sugar in the expectation that t
price* would be lower. Tbey knew c
the refineries could not sell above the j
%*ed price of U cents. Another ele- I
. merit that us yet hus not uiTccted I
the situution is the marine workers
strike, which we hope will be settled I
b 'OTe the entire ileet of sugur ships (
is tu d up in Alluntic and Gulf ports. I v
M^sJrhilc we are reaching by rudio ?
all the vessels possible and di- c

raw sugar. V ^

Chesterfield has had a very narrow ?
escape from having to spend two if its e
hottest days of the summer without (
ice. It was certainly through no fault a

Jesse Wallace and W. I), Cuniphell,
realizing the sweltering condition of
the population and the suffering that t
would follow an iceless day, spoke to
Commander-in-Chief .I. Aaron Sellers, ;
bought a tankful of gas, mounted the
fuilhfu! old John ifcnry Truck and ;
sped away to Chcraw where the ice (
was surely but slowly melting awuy
on thu C. & L. siding. It was but the |<
work of u moment, three or four {
hours to be exact, to load up und get ,|
back to Chesterfield with u ton und a
half of crushed ice. Why crushed? j;
Well, the boys explained, that not y
wishing to remain away from home
.over night, they threw her into high \
and raced back at a speed of ten miles
an hour. No well regulated and prop- r
erly constructed ice cake can stund c
such speed over the Chesterfield- Cheruw
road. -However, ryj. a safe speed u
of two or three miles un hour the ice ,,
would have melted, so it is far better
to have crushed ice thun melted ice. |

TIME TO STOP IT
" /
Waxhuw Enterprise.
Note wuh njade last week of the
free-for-all fight participated In l?y
members and ex-members of Waxhaw
Baptist thureh last Saturday
week*. It was a deplorable and disgraceful
affair, but so long us it was
confined to the church yard it wuh
nobody else's business.
Already three street fights
have resulted from it and feeling
among good men is running high. The
factions are almost equally divided
and one must admit that some of the
best people the country affords are
on each side. Not only the church
is boing split; is already split. The
breech is widening and serious trouble
may ensue.
PROTRACTED SERVICES

KAlt KlUlb IN CHICAGO
TWENTY-FOUR ARE KILLED IN
CLASHES SINCE SUNDAY;
NEGROES LEAVING
FOR SOUTH .
Race riots have broken out in
Chicago.
Reports sent out Wednesday placed
the number of dead at 24. About 10
of thin number are negroes.
On Sunday Home pluyful white perHon?
amuned themselves for a time by
throwing nmull stones at Home negro
bathern, who, it in alleged, had trespnHHed
on the white bathing beach.
Thin Htarted a fight that let) to the
negro quarters o the city, where one
person of each color was killed.
The bluck belt of Chicago comprises
'25 square miles and contains very
few whites. On Monday the trouble
started anew and has been raging
ever since. Seven persons were
killed on that day and night. Tuesday
rioting broke otit in various arid
distant localities. Twenty and thirty
lights were going on at once, thus
keeping the police in patrol wagons
most of the time.
The Mayor called on the Governor
and (5,500 troops were sent from

the Mituation. It is thought that the
worst of the trouble in over. However
the militia will be kept in the
barracks until there is no further
liklihood of clashes.
On Wednesday morning the stations
or railroads louding Southward
were crowded with families of negroes
many of which were loaded down with
bedding, clothing and even furniture.
They were buying tickets to points
south of Mason and Dixon's line,
most of them for Nashville and
Memphis.

$21 PER BALE LOSS ON COTTON
In every cotton county farmers
should at once look into the question
of better warehousing facilities. The

is possessed l?y the grower who in
times of depression can ware- j
house his cotton, borrow on
the receipts and wait patiently
on the Lord und vindication.
The waste and folly of leaving cotton
out in the weather have
also been illustrated in the
thousand cases Ibis season.
Just for example, take the case of a
farmer whose experience we have
just heard of. He left five bales of
cotton out in the weather last fall,
I and when be went to sell it recently,
I 40(1 pounds bail to be picked off as
rotten cotton and sold for ten cents
a pound. In other words, he got only
$40 for this 400 pounds when he
should have gotten $120, his loss being
$ HO. He also bad to pay $f> a bale
for picking ond repacking the cotton.
Loss, $2f>. Total loss on these two
items, $10<r>, or $2 1 a bail, that be.
invr about as much as a whole bale
sold for twenty-live years ago!
"And it is probable," said our friend
who witnessed the transaction, "that
the farmer also bad to take a half
cent a pound less for the rest of the
cotton than he would hove recieved
for it i/ it hud been properly stored."
The (saving from "country damage"
in only one of severul advantages offered
by the cotton warehouse, hut
thin advantage alone should insure

number of new warehouses all over

SUGGESTION FOR
CHESTERFIELD COUNTY
When recently the Bergen County,
New Jorsqy, Freeholders spent $ I ,000,000
for good roads they had no
thought that the public would want to
lance on them to the exclusion of motoriata.
Hut this has huppened and
scorea of clubs and aaaociutions have
.taked for party permits to be held on
the roads.
The board met and debated the
question. It was decided to issue the
permits provided each municipality
would sign an agreement to pay
damages caused by uutomobilists who
met with accidents on detours m^de
necessary by cutting off the main
roads for dancing purposes. I

The condition of the cotton crop in
South Carolina is placed at <57 per

by the American Cotton Association.
The report says: "The oilton

three or four weeks late and with
its diseased root system is very susceptible
to adverse conditions. The
boll weevil has done the Kieatest dains?KC
of its career ami, owinp to scarcity

PI.yfNT TURNIPS NOW
ADVISES COM MIS ION EH
That, the corn crop is i n k to he
short this year is a settled fact, aceorduiK
to Commissioner of Agriculture
Harris. In the South the acreage
usually devoted to corn has I
tfiven way somewhat to cotton
iiiol tobacco, while in the
Went wheat ham taken up a tfreat ileal
of the former corn land.
The result of ai scanty of corn in
the South will mean hitfh priced meat,
laa fact meat and provisional will con
tinue to rise in price, asserts Mr. liar
ris, until the farmer raises more food
ICarly in the season the Southern far
liters were entreated to plant more
corn, hut it was not done and, now, of
course, it is too late.
However, there is one thirty the
farmer can do. It, is now the season
for sowing turnips and by planting
large a reus to this succulent vegetable
the shortage of corn need
scarcely he noticed. On well prepared
land a yield of 25 to "to ton . of
turnips can harvested on each acre
planted. There is no better winter
food for live stock than the t rnip. H
will furnish one half the rations for
cattle and hogs and at a small part
of the expense of i;ruin.
Says Mr. Maris: "I consider one
acre sown to turnips worth $150 to
any farmer who has four cow:; and a
dozen hogs or sheep. ISrood sow:
and crowing shouts can be kept all
winter on what turnips they can cat
in addition to one ear of corn at feeding
twice a day. Any farmer and
every farmer should have turnip;
ready to hepin to feed l?y November
arid should have plenty to keep feed
inp until April.
"Under such-Conditions brood sows
will lie in lietter condition lor lireed
inp purposes and will have larper Idters
of pips; will have better sue
blips than if kept on hiph protein
feed all winter. Wh ri the mows farrow
proteins must he increased.
"If a milk cow is fed half a bushel
of turinps a day you will find that it
will iiiuicrially increase tli flow of
her milk more than if she ih fed on
cottonseed niciil and hulls, and the
turnips cost hut half.
"The above statements are not
theories, hut facts. I have tried this
i plan and I know.
"A preat thinp in favor of turnips
is that in the eastern part of the State
they may remain in the pround all
i winter without danper of freezinp.
