JOHN SHARP WILLIAMS IS ON THE JOB It ought to ho a source of moral gratification to all good Democrats to know that in spite of the fact that th0 Republicans are in power in Congress there is a remnant of loyal and brave Democrats who are neither cowed nor intimidated. At the very front of this noble band of patriots is that grand old veteran, John Sharp Williams. ! i a recent speech in the Senate in referring to some remarks by Senator Reed, of Missouri, Mr. Williams said: "Mr. President, >f ell the foolish and absurd thing* that any man could engage in perhaps the most foolish and absurd would be an appeal to the sense of fairness of the Republican Party when it is in power. I have never lv'DtHVn i? f :in 'lnnunl nf tint cnrt t\ have any reception; 1 have never known the Republicans to decline to take advantage <>f every opportunity presented them; 1 have never known them t<> ri-e to the height of world spirit or even of the United States national spirit. It seems to tne utterly feok-h. even with you in the chair, Mr. President, to appeal to the sense of fairness of the Reoublican Party. 1 never knew them to have any of it and I never knew you to lopresent any of it. It seems that the Senator from Missouri is off on one of his usual lines, lie is worshiping a god that does n ?t exist; he is appealing to something that is nonexistent. "Of cou; se. whenever the Republican Party get> into power it forgets the world: i? forgets the United j Sates; i; forge s overythirg, and reniemb s' t I; itstlf, and it proceeds to ta e the utmost advantage of every oppoiaunity it itself has."

There are so many penis in thisj splendid burst of eloquence that if it' were possible they would all be laid I before our South Carolina leaders,! that they might see that theie is life I in the old land yet, that the i Id man | eloqu< ni, the Mississippi Senator, has still th.. vigor and fire of youth in eomhattinir er,-or. In organising committees of the Senate they were packed, in the language >f Mr. Williams, "for the purpose of being certain that a Republican majority might violate the peace of the world. One more gem from this splendid arraignnu nt of the Republicans must be given that A\ertiser may share the delight "(forded this paper. There i- the whole world, and here is the little Republican Party in the Senate of the United States looking at itself in self-admiration, wondering if it >s not the whole earth, wondering if it is not the whole planetary system, wondering if it is not even the whole solar system, and not seeing that there are other solar systems outside that. Meanwhile Indiana politics run the Senate of the United State, and if (Jod ever witnessed anything smaller than Indiana politics on J both sides, He must have used a! microscope." Senator Williams may take consolation in the fact that he is in the rijrht and from all of his records through a lontr life devoted to his country'.- welfare, he can say in the ! nyunire of Kentucky's yreat statesmen, Henry Clay, "Sir, 1 would rather hi- r:yht than he President." To this The Advertiser can add with all reference that though in the in nority now, "one on Clod's side is a majority."

His main qualification for this exalted office that has been held by some of America's greatest statesmen is that he published a little paper, called Har-. vey's Weekly, in which he abused I Woodrow Wilson in season and out of j It will he remembered that Woodrow Wilson had told Harvey that his support was liable to injure his chance of nomination Harvey was so connected up with certain financial interests that Mr. Wilson naturally feared that his support might be a disadvantage and damaging and very frankly told him so. For this Harvey fiooped end has been abusing the great ex-President ever since. In his paper Harvey published a cartoon entitled the "Immaculate Conception, Prof. Wilson's League of Nations," yet this horrible blaspheming is overlooked because it was aimed at Woodrow Wilson and George Harvey is sent to represent the United States at the Court of St. James, where some of America's greatest statesmen have been sent. If they were bent on sending Harvey out of the country, why not wait until we made peace with Germany and send him there? That would have been very appropriate. CONCERNING CO-OPERATIVE MARKETING 4. The Principles Of Co-operative Marketing Clcmson College, Apr. 30.?The ' United States Bureau of Markets reports that there are about fourteen thousand farmers buying and selling organizations scattered throughout the United States (Farmers' Bulletin 11 1-11. From this it is evident that American farmers are awake to the necessity of their taking a hand in the business of distributing their products. Some of these buying and selling organizations are co-operative, that is, they are organized without capital stock and pay no stock dividends, all proceeds less costs being prorated among the members according to the amount of business done through the organization. Others are stock company organizations, and the farmers who own stock receive market prices for their products, plus ?tYwLr .liul.io.wlo ?e.. i? . ?^.mn |ii??nn.-u mi; uii;aniziition makes a profiit. This kind of farmers' organization is very similar to an ordinary corporation and is of little value from the growers' standpoint for the reason that its prime object is to pay its stockholders dividends on capital stock. Like other corporations, it tries to buy as cheaply as possible and sell as high as possible. Combination Stock and Patronage Cumpaniej Some of these organizations com-, bine various features of both the stock company, dividend-paying or-' ganization and the non-stock, purely' co-operalive associations. For example. some of them limit the divi-' dends payable on stock to 6 or 7 per cent, and provide that any profits re-i alized above such per cents shall be paid out to the fanners who buy or sell through the organization. The' amounts thus paid out to patrons are ailed patronage dividends. The payment of patronage is based on the premise that patrons are as necessary o the success of an organization as is apital stock and therefore entitled! :o receive a share of the profits realiz-. d in the marketing operation.

No capital stock is necessary under this plan and all receipts from the sale of products, less costs of selling, are returned to growers in payment for the products marketed. Thus we see that the thousands of farmers' buying and selling organizations throughout the country make use of the principles of co-operation in every possible degree of variation from the pure co-operative plan to the ordinary stock corporation plan. CI? D. ? _ I* " >jix rnncipiea Dneny E-xpianed The six main principles underlying the successful marketing of farm products on the purely co-operative plan may be stated aa follows: (1) The basis of such association shall be a single crop or commodity and not a combination of crops which are marketed in unlike manner. Neither is the association organized merely by counties or other political dvision but rather over the entire territory where the particular commodity is produced. (2) Membership is limited to growers and to landlords who receive a part of the crop as rental. (3) Each member enters a binding contract with the association agreeng to turn over to the association for its resale value all of the commodity which comes into his possession as a grower. The association markets that commodity for nobody except members. (4) The commodity is all graded and each grade is marketed as a "pool." The members all receive the same price per unit for the same grade of product. (5)Competent market men who hav? marketing the particular commodity are employed by the association to handle the marketing work of the association. Such marketing work is not a job for amateurs. (6) Such an association is set up and operated on the basis of the crop contracts and without capital stock. It is, therefore a non-stock and nondividend paying association. The next article of this series will explain in more detail the crop contract. There is one thing ubout being proAmerican?there are no regrets.? Culdesac (Ida.) Enterprise.

A soil may fail to produce crimson clover or it may even be too poor to grow cowpeas but it will produce ' velvet beans if good seed arc planted, says N. E. Winters, Extension agronomist. For Feed and Fertility We must feed ourselves in 1921, and velvet beans will make us more milk or meat than anything else we j can plant this spring. On sandy land nicy may oe pastured all lnll and wintr, and they may be used for pasture on red clay 'and when not wet. They may be cut up with a sharp cutter and raked up for hay if necessary. Nitrogen is the limiting plant food for crop production in South Carolina and the most expensive part of our fertilizer bill. A velvet bean crop if pastured off or plowed under will add to each acre as much nitrogen as is contained Jn 300 to 500 pounds of nitrate of soda. Humus is also a crying need of soils. It is the very foundation' of soil fertility. Velvet beans, when Dlowed try.?Gilmer (Tex.) Mirror. While the savage red man lived in a wigwam he paid no rent.

Leland Moore, of Charleston, is financial di- * "ector of the movehient for the South Carolina Conference, of which the churches of this city are a very important factor. Co-operating with Mr. Moore are the following district financial directors: John A. McCormick, Charleston; J. W. Ivey, Florence; W. E. Nermight, Kingstree; H. A. Lewis, Marion; W. E. Atkinson. Oranareburir. and C. R. Sprott, Marion. ^ Just now all over South Carolina "setting up" meetings are being held, at which charge leaders, minute men and other workers get together and organize for the work to be done May" 29th to June 5th. Judge C. C. Featherston, financial director of the Upper South Carolina Conference, stated at one of these "setting up" meet ings that if the Methoditsts of South Carolina would give up the price of one cold drink per week for five years South Carolina's quota of $2,267,000 of the $33,000,000 could be put across without trouble. The Quota for the South Carolina Conference is $1,149,500. The churches of Chesterfield arc expected to do their share in this as handsomely as they did in the Centenary movement. The Methodist institutions ^2 learning in South Carolina, with their approved asi.ings are: Carlisle JLihool, damberg, $75,000; Columbia College, Columbia, $300,000; Lander College, Greenwood, $300,000; Horry Industrial School, Aynor, $75,000; Textile Industrial Institute, Spartanburg, $50,000; WofFord Fitting School, Spartanburg, $75,000; Wofford College, Spartanburg, $500,000. Among the objectives sought in the Christian Education Movement of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, are: First: To develop in the mind of the church an adequate conception of the place of Christian leadership in the life of the church, of the nation and of the world. Second: To promtc the cause of religous education by bringing about a closer and more effective co-operation between the institutions of learning and the Sunday School, by establshing departments of religious education in the colleges and universities. Third: To lead at least five thousand young men and women to pledge themselves to devote their lives to the ministry, to missions, or to some other form of Christian service, and to seek a Christian education as a preparation for effective life service. Fourth: To raise for the schools, colleges and universities at least $33,000,000, the minimum sum necessary to enable them to send out the constantly increasing stream of educated Christian leaders required to carry forward Christian work of the world, and secure $1,000,000 to aid worthy students who are looking to some form of Christian service in ther efforts to obtain an education. Fifth: To deepen the moral and spiritual uplift of the people and to promote the spirit of Christian liberality in all of the efforts put forth to realize these objectives. CONTROLLING THE ROSE APHIS The rose aphides or rose lice are little soft-bodied insects that cluster about and destroy the new growth and buds. The following control measures ' are given in order of preference: First, nicotine sulphate spray. This is made by adding one teaspoonful of nicotine sulphate to an ordinary 2V4 gallon pail of water. It can be improved by adding a soap solution made by j: 1-' uiBsuivinpr a piece of good common soap as big as a hen egg in a small amount of hot water. This can be sprayed on the roses with any kind of spray pump that you may hove on hand. Second, if nicotine sulphate cnn not be obtained, a pood spray can be made by dissolving one-half pound of hard soap in a half gallon of hot water and diluting with cold water to make two and one-half gallons. The soap should be shaved into the water. Soap containing coal tar or naptha should never be used. Octagon, homo-mnde lye soap and Ivory soup are good examples of soap that do not contain coal tar or naptha. Nicotine sulphate ean be secured from seed houses and all dealers in spray pumps and insecticides, and sometimes from drug stores. The nearest manufacturers are the Kentucky By-Products and Chemical Corporation, Louisville, Kv.
