Rains Cause Big Los* Conway, Aug. 6,?A movement is on foot to help the farmers of the Soenstee section by starting work on Ihc Murrel's Inlet road. The farmers ?f this section have lost 7f> per cent. >f their crops by the excessive rains of the past few weeks and are in bad ^liapc. It is thought the starting of this work at this time will do good as he work will be carried on by labor secured in that community.

Courier) j Cooperative marketing on a large seale will soon be given a trial in South Carolina. A great deal of agi- ! tat ion has been carried on in this State during the year. Two of the largest and most valuable crops pro- j liuced will be controlled to a certain I extent by cooperative marketing asso- j ciaiions. In some sections this move- j , mctn has met with stiff opposition.' Farmers, merchants and business men in all parts of the South Carolina will watch the results of the cooperative bodies with much interest, and it is i safe to say that if these associations; prove successful almost the entire, onl Inn """"" 1AOO ....II VWI \ \?u (Hill twuatvw tiujin Ui Li7MQ Will be marketed cooperatively. The cooperative tobacco ware-J houses will open today for the first time in the South Carolina bolt. Cash advances will be made on all stock delivered by the growers. The tobac-j eo then goes under the control of the1 association to be sold at the best price j obtainable. It is stated that about two-1 thirds of the South Carolina crop is! controlled by the association. With this amount of tobacco held out of the 1 open market it is reasonable to be-j lieve that the growers' organization j : will lie in position to have something I i to say regarding the price. The manu- j factum's need tobacco to meet their! trade. If they cannot buy in the open j market at their "own" price they must of necessity approach the cooperative i marketing association for their supply. With this supply in the hands of, those who produced it they can do-j( mand and secure a price which will, ' pay for production and a fair profit j : on their year's work. The Cotton Crop The cotton crop of South Carolina I for this vear is estimated at 825.-' 000 bales. More than half of this will I , l.o controlled by the Cotton Growers'| Cooperative Marketing Association.] Another campaign is to be put on, andi , t i< likely that close to <500,000 bales j ( will he controlled. With the same sort i of movement under wav in other cot-j ton States and the supply of visible' eottoi lower than in many years it, would appear safe to say that the] ' crop will bring a better price than it would if dumped on the market as, ( fast as it is gathered. With coopera- :1 tive marketing organization going on m X of the best cotton States in the ( 1 South it is probable that one-half ofji the entire cbtton crop can be with-1 held from the open market and a 1 price demanded which will repay the \ farmer for his labor and investment and show a profit. c Plans are being made to handle the t 1!>22 crop in this State. The South Carolina's Cotton Growers' Cooperative Association has established head quarters in Columbia. The organiza-! tion occupies two floors of a nice | building on the principal street of the j city. Men well qualified to handle the ! work are engaged in looking after the ^ affairs of the association. The men ' who grow the cotton control the assoeiation, for the first time in the ^ hi tory of the cotton industtry in this coutnry the producer will have a ' word to say regarding the price to be b received for his product. Other cooperative marketing or- g ganizations are being built up in b South Carolina. These are at present o community affairs which promise to b; grow into county and probably into r; State organizations. Several cream- a cries have been established, poultry hi producers have joined hands in mar- cc keting their eggs, vegetable growers are cooperating to some extent, in tc one place .1 < .'lining factory is being a: id Saturday j and 12th < l Beach Suits.

What Other States Have Done Several States have become widcl advertised through their cooperativ marketing associations. This is tru of Florida, where the citrus gvowei are organized; of Georgia, where th famous peaches grow; of Californii where the egg farmers and the citru fruit growers have their great cooj erative associations. Petaluma, Cat.,: probably the greatest egg-producin center in the World. Cooperation hr made it possible. Pulallup Valley, i the '.ver,tern part of the State c Washington, is known the world ovc for its famous berries, jams, and pr? serves. Not many years ago lan could he bought for a few dollars a acre. Last year the writer visited ih section and land was priced at $2,00 per acre?that is, where berries wer growing. Cleared land could be pui chased on the outskirts of the valle for $G00 per acre. Cooperative marketing of farm pr< duets is the big question before th people of South Carolina today. ! the associations already establishe are properly handled and prove su< cessful it will probably be only >hort time until we will find producei in puuiuj'i cifuniciy pruuucu truck, fruits and other crops brougl under the protection of cooperativ marketing. South Carolina is primar ly an agricultural State, and unles the men who spend their time on th farm producing cotton, tobacco an food crops can realize a better retur on their labors we cannot go forwar with better schools, better highway and a continued industrial develop ment.

The tense breathing of his listeners culminated now In one general deep breath. Colonel Dale rose and turned ta General Wllloughby. "And that's where he wants te take our hoys." "Oh.

Mr. Yandell must go with them to the fair at Williamsburg next morning, and Mr. Yandell would go gladly. They would spend the night there and go to the governor's ball. The next day there was a county fair, and perhaps Mr. Henry would speak again. Then Mr. Yandell must come hack with them to Red Oaks and pay them a visit?no, the colonel would accept no excuse whatever. The boy plied Dave with questions about the people In the wilderness and passed to sleep. Dave lay awoke a long time thinking that war was sure to cotue. They were Americans now, itl Colonel Pale ? not Virginians, Just as nearly a century later the same people were to say: "We are not Americans now?wo are Virginians." (To be continued next we?k) DON'T PULL FODDER Climson College, Aug. 2.?The old oracliee of pulling fodder is not followed by the best farmers any more. They have come to realize that fodder is the most expensive form of forage which they can raise on the farm and have begun to raise cowpens, soybeans, sorghum and other things for forage and to leave their corn alone until mature. They have -topped tins practice because they have found it to he, not only a hot, di'ty oieci of woik, but also that it ...iiuooc ?iw. ?,w.i.i ?? ,.v.v- - v\- * ? >., v?i vim rn euuy 'hat they can not afford to do it. Several different experiment stations have carefully tested the matter and have found that pulling the fodder reduces the yield of ear corn by 10 to 12 per cent, says Prof. C. P. Blackw'ell, agronomist. This loss amounts to 3 bushels per acre oifthe average. Frequently the loss to ear corn is worth as lhuch as the fodder saved and the farmer has had his work for nothing. The leaf is the factory of the corn plant where the rnw materials which ire taken from the soil and the ear ire united Ly the energy of the sun .o form starch, oil, protein, and fata, for the growth of the entire plant ind especially for storage in the ear. As the leaf dries out, these foods ire transferred, in a large measure, fom the leaf to the ear. If the leaf is pulled before it is thoroughly dry, :his transfer can' not take place and the result is a loss to the ear. It is because of this loss that the more progressive farmers no longer de>end on fodder as a roughage for livet/l/ll/ Kill J ? ? 1 vvv X, uMV IIOC laiatcau iuwpt?3( POy velvet beans, sorghums or some >ther source. Most of these are not * ' 'A >nly much cheaper forage but also etter.
