For once it seems that the

Rojestvensky slipped through

a reasonable profit, and draw
money on it to meet their press
ing necessities. This is a very
timely suggestion on the part
of our friend, who is himself
one of the largest cotton grow
ers of the county, and the plan
he offers to build these ware
houses by means of joint stock
companies seems to be feasible.
A ware house in kingstree,
or any other town in the coun-
ty, would undoubtedly be of
great benefit to the town in a
material way, and the mer-
chants and other business men
would find it to their interest to
encourage such an enterprise
bv subscribing to the stock. If
the stock holders neve. received
a cent in the way OF dividends,
the monev spent IN building the
ware houses would be we'll in
vested, for every farmer Who
stored cotton and hypothecaN ID
his storage certificate would
spend the most of the money
thus obtained in the town that
helped to build the warehouse.
In prompt response to Mr.
Bryan's sugges ton, Mr. j Davis
Garter, president of the county
Cotton Growers Association,
who is always wide-awake to
the interests of the organization
has appointed a committee, con-
sisting of six representative men
from various sections of the
county "to investigate the ad-
visibility and probable cost of
building cotton warehouses in
Williamsburg county and re-
port to the convention later"
We hope that the gentlemen
comprising this committee will
meet and consider the subject
as soon as practicable, so as to
give the public the benefit of
their views. after making proper
investigation.
By reducing acreage and es-
tablishing these ware-h ouses
the farmers have it in their
power to become masters of the
situation. Instead of being
forced to take any price offered
them for their product they
can, to a certain extent, fix the
price themselves. On the other
hand, if they do not intend to
stand together, and any con.
siderable proportion through
blind selfishness refuses to re-
duce their crop, then the asso-
ci a tion would better disband so
that every man will be on the
same footing and no one will,
suffer through bad faith on the
part of his neighbor.
If nothing but five-ceut cot
ton will convince the Southern
farmer of the futility of his
"plant -the-earth" policy, then
perha ps the sooner it comes to
that the better it will be for the
country generally.

An Improbable Trip.

Mr.. Jas. A. Hardy left here
Monday afternoon for Franklin,
'Sy way of Evening Shade, to
identify a horse stolen from him
some months ago. The storm
and intense darkness overlook
Him short distance this side of
Evening Shade, and he spent the
night in his buggy, on the bank
of swollen stream and in front
of the house of a widow woman,
whose ideas of propriety were so
strict as to'compel her to refuse
him shelter from the continuous
rain. Next day he waited five
hours on the bank of Strawberry,
for that tardy stream to fall en-
ough to make it safe to cross,
and got to Franklin, finally, only
to find the horse was a mare. If
Mr.. Hardy ever comes up with
the man who stole his horse,
something will be doing.-Bates-
vile Guard.

The Country Press.

The following is from a Mis-
souri farmers address before a
farmers institute: GAS q rule
the farmers know no firmer friend
than the county press. The home
paper is distinctly the farmers
own paper, supported directly or
indirectly by the farmers who
compose the backbone of the
printers subscription list, and
largely for what the enterprising
merchant advertises. Now BROTH
,ers, let us not forget our friends.
Net us see that our subscription
il paid before the first of January,
and year in advance if we can
afford it. The man or paper that
fights my battles shall have my
support. Another thing, the
merchants who advertise are the
ones who make it possible for us
to get good local paper, and
the men or firms who are too
penurious to advertise and help
support the local press, have no
right to the farmers patronage. |
propose hereafter to 60 to a good,
live, local advertiser, and man
who will do his share in support
ing the local press, thus con-
triburing to my support, rather
than buy of the man who pro-
poses to take all and give nothing
