afford to pay tailors' prices

Is it because they know the

Or is it because our stock is

The two-horse farmer can adopt a
system of diversified agriculture in
which the time Of men and teams is
better distributed throuout the year
than Is possible In raising cotton and
corn alone. The number of days of
crop work-not miscellaneous work
and lost time-for the cotton-corn
farmer for a whole year does not ex-
ceed 130 to 40 days as a rule, and
the number of days that the horse
or mule works at actual crop work,
does not usually exceed 100 days in
a year, hence there Is a great amount
of lost time for men and teams on a
cotton-corn farm, unless there Is
much miscellaneous work todo; which
there is not for the average tenant
or for the average one horse
farmer. Under a properly diversified
system, however, the two-horse far
mer can. work 200 days in year at
actual -orep--xo.h,- h,-bvvirtvr n -fot'-or
time devoted to miscellaneous work,
and in working a greater number OF
days in a year, he tends a much larg-
er total area and gets larger in
come.-A. D. McNair, in The Progress
sive Farmer.

women in West Philadelphia complet.
ed plans for moonlight excursion on
the river. and when the evening Of

one Of the most charming members
of the party wore a shawl about her

wondered at this and to her query as
to whether the wearer was afraid of
taking cold received negative reply.
Another suggested that possibly she
had malaria. This was also emphat.
ically denied. At this juncture the ir.
repressible small brother Of the shawl
wearing young woman volunteered to
explain matters. and despite bis sis.

A CHANGE SHOULD BE MADE.

There certainly should be some I'M
provement in the arrangements a.
round the depots-especially those al
the Seaboard. The rails put down to
keep the buses from backing up too
close to the platform are dangerous
to pedestrians, especially Is this true
at the Coast Line depot. There are
no lights there and several times the
past week parties getting off the train
at midnight have run over this rail
with the result that they have been
nursing a skinned leg-but, as one
victim remarked, 1T might have been
worse"
At the Seaboard 1t Is not quite so
bad as this-the trouble there is that
pedestrians are forced to push their
way across soft roads and between
and around all kinds Of cehicles to
get into the depot or else go around
the depot and push through the &C.
cumulated baggage and get In the
way of the employees of the railroad.
At least light could be maintained
by the Coast Line for the benefit Of
its patrons, and the SeaSoard might
throw up a good high walk on the
right hand side Of the road leading to
the depot so that white people could
reach their depot without having to
contend with the above described con-
ditions.
Words fail to describe the condi-
tions at the C. & L. depot during wet
weather. At such time there is
nothing to it, except to 60 in some
kind of vehicle or slosh through the
mud and water surrounding the de-
pot.

Local Merchants Awake!

Greenwood merchants need now a.
wake to the possibilities of the new
parcel post system. The man who
gets busy and takes advantage OF the
new system is the man for whom its
benefits are stored up. The mail or
der houses will advertise to get trade.
The local merchant has the advan-
tage. He is near the customer and
the rates for sending matter are so
much lower for his legitimate terri
tory than they are for the long-dis-
tance concerns. But he will not get
this trade unless he goes out for it.
1t will not come to him. He must let
parcels post. Advertise the fact and
his customers know what he has and
how we'll he can serve them through
doubly impress 1t in every way pos
sible. In this way you benefit your
business.-Green@ood Index.
The zone system gives the local
merchant an advantage over the mail
order houses which he did not have
before the establishment Of the par
GELS post. The large mail order
houses may in time establish branch
houses in every zone, but the local
merchant Is already here and by judi
cious advertising can have the trade
coming his way before the foreign
concerns come into his home. "The

COWDRAY ACTION
VICTORY FOR WILSON
Withdrawal of Valuable Oil Con-
cessions Is Attributed to
U. S. Stand.

That President Wilson has achieved a
remarkable success for the Latin
American policy which he set forth In
his recent speech at Mobile, Ala. was
conceded In diplomatic circles here to-
day following the publication of the
news in London that Lord Cowdray has
relinquished valuable oil and haroor
concessions which he had obtained from
the Colombian government That the
British foreign office persuaded LORD
Cowdray to give up the CONCESSIONS
and that the British office. in turn, was
moved to this action by the attitude oi
President Wilson is likewise conceded.
On all sides it is admitted that the sur
render of the grants has relieved ten
sion in a very delicate situation grow
ing out Of the fact that Lord Cowdray
had practically obtained control OF the
crude oil supply in the vicinity of the
Panama canal .
In his speech at Mobile, President
Wilson declared emphatically against
the granting by I.atin-American repub-
lies OF monopolistic concessions to for
eign capitalists. This speech was taken
at the time as a direct challenge TO
Great Britain because Of the sus-
pected sympathies existing between
Great Britain and Lord Cowdray on the
one side, and Provisional President II Hu-
erta on the other. That it was so In
terpreted by Great Britain was shortly
afterward indicated when the British
Cowdray support for Huerta was os-
tentatiously repudiated by Great Brit
ian and Lord Cowdray.
The concessions sought by Cowdray
from the Colombian government, but
