COLORED LEA1TERS HELP.
Certain of the colore. V leaders of New
Bern have been giving sp. lendid assistance
to the whites in the relief work which . has
been, in progress. They have been sparing
neither ef their time nor ti-ieir efforts but
have labored strenuously.: in. .trying to pre--vent
distress among the me libers of their
own race. !. - , ' ' . - i ' f
7 "The j Lord helps those whV help them-
selves,'- is a well known ada!e. The more
"we see the colored people trj.ing to help ",
themselves, the greater incentive it is for 1
us to help them. ; '

. A further step in practical organization
was taken by the representatives of , the
Southern Cotton Commission at the Mem
phis meeting, when that association, here
tofore unofficial, was continued-upon an ,
o facial basis, with Mr. R. O. Everett as its
head. , . There is possibility; of much use- ;
fulness before this organization, especially
in the matter" of bringing about a more
perfect degree of co-operation with the '
United States Department of Agriculture, '
in helping - eradicate the boll weevil and
other pests, - and in securing better mar- '

1 rogram outlined appears one which is
FRANCE GETTING PAY.
-France is promptly getting its pay 'for
supporting England on the Dardanelles
at the eleventh hour.
Of course, a good deal depends on the
new Ministry, but as the prime Minister
is the man who warned France to support
England in Turkey or England would not
support France in Europe, there is little
danger of any change from the announced
policy of Great Britain to support France
nTthe matter of reparations. England con-"
sents to call Germany in default if it shall
fail in the internal reforms required by
the Allies. ' '
If Mr. Law had only showed his un
pleasant alternative in ; the face of the
Quai d' Orsay two or three years ago this
whole horror in Anatolia and the flighjt
of 14,000 Christians from Cilicia and 230,
OOOfrom Thrace might,have been averted.

WITH OTHER EDITORS
; ' - Pcannt , Growing'
Upon the. first appearance of the
boll weevil ln, the lower "part of i the
State the ' people of Colleton, Beau
fort, Jasper and other counties went
headlong into peanutt -growing. At
planting time a good quality of pea
nuts was worth in the Virginia mar
kets $120 a ton. , lany of the farmers
planted 50 to 75 acres each 'atrd they
made - bumper crope; but owing to
; the . 8ate ' of the market at ' narvesi
time the peanuts were not. salable at
all.
There were no oil ' if itls In that
immediate section affording' a mar
ket for peanuts; tiotsi and cattle
were scarce and the crops rotted In
the fields in great. pile.
The best way to handle peanuts, it
seems to us, 'is to look after the pro
curing of the necessary livestock.
Then plant with reference to the live
stock . rather than the market; but
taking care to produce rather more
than less than the livestock can use.
This will insure the saving of most
of the peanuts whether they shall be
salable or not.
. Then also peanut all U marketable
at a good price an das the tupply of
cotton . seed is diminishing i-ach year,
the mills will gladly look to peanuts,
with which to sbupply the deficiency.

The American vineyard in Califor

transaction is significant for three
reasons. It is the largest vineyard In
the world; it was sold for the largest
price ever recorded for a vineyard
