WASHINGTON," Oct 31 (Special
....... p 1
Correspondence) While , Democratic
campaigners are shouting about, de
r pression and unemployment, the com
' mercial pages of Democratic news-
papers are, .filled with facts testify
ing to the enjoyment of a returned
', prosperity after the destructive De'ra
, ecratic deflation of the closing months
of the Wilson administration. - !A
' - recent issue of the New York Times,
Independent" Democratic, announced
' ' m bold headlines that 'Shortage, of
' labor is; almost universal,- arid that
"improved business,' conditions and
: increased employment are reported
in all secUons." 'The Annalist a
business periodical witb no partisan
v bias, but -published by Democrats
' said in its rectnt issue, discussing the
i , - business situation f 4 y',:''?-.-':
"General business conditions con
' tinue to' be of highly, satisfactory
character. Developments of .. the
last week have served merely to fur
ther "emphasize that this business ex-
pension is being built upon sound
principles, ' and that it may be ex
v pected to continue at an increasing
- pace. It would be natural to expect
: that business at this period of the
! . year would show ' improvement, no
' , matter what might have been the rec
ord of preceding months. - We are

stimulate activity in retail lines.

"In the South for instance, there

and the South has received a price

involved. It is also rue that in the
. West a goodly portion of the grain

The leaders of both parties are
claiming that they will , sweep the
county which is the usual custom in
political campaigns, i The Democrats
say they expect to ; win by several
hundred majority and the Republi
cans are equally confident that they
will get a majority for their ticket
of 800 to 500. ' There is no doubt
but thai each side will get every man

' WASHINGTON-f-Perhaps the most
significant economic . demonstration
of the times was. the recent audience
the Southern Tariff Association, had
with President' Harding the ', state
ment made to -the President by the
spokesman of ' the '. association, ' Mr.
John Kirby, and the statement made
to the v public press. ; The Southern
Tariff Association is composed of
agricultural and industrial interests
of the South and with it ; is affiliated
over 6,000 Southern bankers.
That such an organization should
unequivocally endorse the' present
protective tariff commend the Presi
dent and the Republican' Congress
for having' secured the enactment of
the law, denounce .the ' Democratic
National Committee by name for at
tacking the' tariff, is without preced
ent' in national affairs; 5 It undoubt
edly marks the economic ; breakup
of the;,"Splid South" and should be
a warning to the bourbon free trad
ers who have always counted upon
the undivided support of 'all South
ern members' of Congress. .
The text of the formal statement
made ,by John ..H. Kirby, president
of the. Southern Tariff Association,
to President Harding is as follows: .

Report of Agricultural Depart

Yield Fair'
WEATHER: The ; rains during
the week of October 714 were ac
companied by mild, warm weather.
The rains did much good to crops in
general, especially late cotton, pas
tures and fall truck!
The weather af the past week has
been fair and cool, with tempera
tures slightly below normal,' especial
ly in the mountain area where heavy
froBt was reported on the 13tb and
19th. Little damage was done, how
ever as the crops are mostly matured
The showers of tlie early part of
this week have continued to be ben
eficial ' to the development '; of ' late
cotton bolls, particularily in the up
per clay soil sections. , ';. 1 f
Corn cutting is now quite general
and husking has begun in many sec
tions. From the present outlook, it
appears that the corn yield will be
good, . With the exception of the
late corn, whcih was too badly dam
aged by drougth, the ears are full
and the grain is good. Prices ayer
age '90 cents per bu. The crop is
practically out of danger of frost.
.. Although plowing is badly behind,
on account of dry weather, good prog
re 88 has been made in preparing land
for small grain, except in some sec
tions where the soil was too .wet.
More rain is needed for the germina
tion and development of small grains.
.Cotton picking is about completed
and ; much is , being ginned. - Late
cotton has been t , considerably , im-

MILK REGULATIONS
Editor , of the News: I was . much
interested . ' -';he regulations- of the
Health Board . with regaru to milk,
that were published in your paper
last "vek. . The placid-cow is the key
to our health and prosperity. ; , .
Our agriculture needs diversifica
tion. Add the cow and we have bet
ter fertilized fields, more land fit for
gardens, more kinds. of vegetables
for table ;use, more permanent pas-j
tures, more milk (the best of all
foods) for bid .and young, and we
will e8 to send milllonr away to
to buy food for man and. beast that
we can perfectly well raise at borne.
5 Our .people need a more varied
diet, Monotomy in diet discourages
appetite and . digestion. Then, too,
without using big scientific terms, it
stands to reason that no restricted
number of vegetables is likely to con-My
tain all .the different things that eur
bodies need. The, more different
kinds of food we eat, the more like-
ly . we are to get eyery different
kind of thing necessary for the build
ing andt rebuilding of the body.
Then we must remember Uiat milk
is the only food that contains every
thing the body meeds. .The baby
thrives and grows on milk alone, the
shepherds of the East frequnetly live
for months on nothing but milk and
the products of milk. The little ba
by fares really well only when it is
nourished by the nvrther's milk. When
weaned from that, it needs lots and
tots of the best and ; purest cow's
milk and even grown people need a
great deal of milk to supply every
thing that may happen to be lacking
in tbe other food consumed,
Milk from a can may produce a
fat looking baby, but even then the gjyen by the sailors. V " V -bcrties,

' From practically every standpoint
the observance of " Ndval , Day la
Beaufort last Friday was a big sac-
cess. 5 In the first place the weather
was glorious, as in fact it had been
for several days previous. Although
the notice given was short the people
entered into the spirit of the day and
did all possible to make the occasion
a memorable one.
' The parade formedj on- Turner
street between Ann and Broad and
headed by St Paul's' band moved off
promptly at 10:80 o'clock. Two pla
toons of sailors from the Worden ful-
rmed followed the band, then
fWme St. Paul's school, the eBa'ufort
Graded School band end a long line
of pupils from the "Graded School. ,
The parade made a nice showing and
was viewed by a large crowd that
lined' the sidewalks... - .
The procession came to a halt at
the west end of the court house and
after music, by the band the school
i children sang - America. Captain '
Henry J. Shields of the Worden was
introduced to those assembled by '
Lieutenant E. Walter Hill, a veteran
f the World War and responded with
a short address.' Captain Shield,
gave a brief review of the history of
the navy showing the part plsyed by
it in every war that the United States
had ever fought. He also set forth
the reason why the nation needs a
good navy. Afterethe conclusion of
'the sneaking an exhibition "drill was
