and we believe that 1t would. These
rooms are quite airy in summer time
conyeniences in winter time. How
ever, they are not furnished, but we
believe that the merchants of the
city would gladly contribute to fund
to meet this need. Such room ought
really to be provided before the fall
trade begins and before the school
opens.

School Pictures Once More.

The county fair wheels are just be-
ginning to turn,
VIII South Carolina make enough
corn this year for home consumption
Hardly, but she will come nearer than
she has ever down before and that Is
n great step forward.
The Pee Dee counties sold over a
million dollars worth Of tobacco this
year. 1T Is said that many OF the
farmers are paying off their notes out
of the tobacco money, leaving the cot
ton for cash money. This is the re-
suit Of diversiGcation.
The last report ON the corn crop
in Kansas gave the condition at 30
drop OF about forty points in a
month. This means that corn will be
high until another crop is made
Farmers in this section should feel
thankful that the grain crop of all
kinds was good this year and that they
will not be affected as much as here
tofore by high priced feed.
