PROSPEROUS FARMER
OF ANDERSON COUNTY
PRICE OF COTTON DOES
NOT WORRY HIM
A CALF ORPHANAGE
J. w. Bradley Living Seven and
One-Helf Miles From City Has
Ideal Orphanage

Living seven and one half miles from
the city OF Anderson. j. w. Bradley
has thoroughly demonstrated in the
past six years what thrift and the
proper conception OF farming will ac-
complish. Six years ago Mr.. Bradley
bought the place he now occupies
for $33.O0 per acre. It was then con-
sidered poor investment. Today
1t is worth many times the price paid
for 1t. having been improved in every
conceivable way, swamps cleared up,
timber cut out OF swamps, and the
dwelling now occupied by the Bradley
family having been built with lumber
sawed from trees on the place. In
talking with a reporter for The Inael-
ligencer yesterday. Mr.. Bradley un-
folded q new but profitable scheme
that he has put into effect, namely a
Calf Orphanage." The enterprlsing
owner OF this farm buys all the young
calves to be had in his immediate vi
cinity. at prices ranging from 4Oc to
$2.09 each and keeps them from ie
to 18 months in which they are
rcsdy for market and will bring from
$500 to $4,000 each. Mr. Bradley ex-
planned that the cost OF raising them
was very light as he has an excellent
! pasture and ten milch COVE or h.:a.
practically all the time. There were
II calves all practically the same
size in Mr.. Bradley's pasture yesterday
and to say that II was pretty sight
expresses it mildly. OF the so acres
In this farm, there are only about 20
acres planted in cotton, ten acres OF
| which will make a bale to the acre
Seventeen acres Of bottom corn will
easily yield rs bushels to the acre
which Is without doubt as fine field
| OF corn as is to be found in any Sec
tion OF the State. In addition to the
splendid crop in view Mr.. Bradley has
$50 bushels of corn and enough to
last him for some time to come ina,
1--we been stored away for over p year
There ID also store that does II good
business belonging to this cnternrising
farmer, who stated that lie employs
no help on the farm, himself and fam.
ily plant and gather the entire crop
which by the way consists of as fine q
pair Of five year old Missouri mules
as can be found anywhere. Their con.
diticn proves conclus!vely that they
were looked after by Sir Bradiey's
] family and not hired help.
It would no doubt be q revelation
for great many to get out and see the
results that have been obtained In six
short years on this farm by using q
little elbow grease and modern meth
ods. Also doing away with the Idea
that one must raise cotton to live
This one instance IL positive proof that
the farmer that raises the necessities
OF life at home. will in the future be
the man that is able to enjoy peace
and plenty. in spite Of wars and other
calamities. -,

VOTERS TURNING
TO JOHN HORTON
The Aiken -Baker-Dominick Row
Has Disgustcd Crowd and They
Will Support Horton

Vc.c-s :n the Third District ere
flocklng to the banner OF John A..
Horton for congress as they lave be-
come disgusted with the Aiken Baker
Dominick row and think that where
there is so much smoke there must
be some fire" Aiken says Bakers a
liar, Baker says you are another an,
SO the fuss goes OH. The people are
tired OF 1t and as John Horton has
hld no hand In 1t they are turning to
him as the best and clcanest nun In
the race.
Isn't 1t natural to suppose that
man who had to work his own way in
life realizes more fully than city
bred lawyer. the needs of the great
masses OF the people. John Horton
has been success In his own busl-
ness and the people believe he will be
a success as their representative. Tho
vote he will receive In Anderson coun-
ty alone would put him in tho second
race but he is going to get big vote
In all the other counties besides This
Is even admitted by the friends OF his
opponents. Why shouldn't the people
support him because iie deserves It?
Here Ia what one voter in Abbevillt
county says: "Am going to vote for
John A. Horton. Have known the Flor.
tons for as years have dealt with
them In business and In church and
have found them the most Pheasant
people OF all my dealings"
John Horton can beat either Of his
opponents In the second race as he
will secure either the Aiken or Dom
mick vote. Vote for him. give him a
trial and If he falls to secure a chair
manship to which he is entitled he
will resign. :.
man that came from between the
plow handles will serve you better
than man that has lived easy Mt the
public crib all his liie.--Adv. N. ~ *.

JOHN A. HORTON A WINNER
This Statement is Com
ing Daily From All
Quarters of the District

John A. Horton is receiving letters
and messages. wholesale. from every
nook and corner Of the third congress
sional district. telling him to put up q
stiff fight for the high honor 10 which
he aspires. saying that he will be the
next congressman. This his friends be-
lieve to be true. Every man in the
race realizes that John Horton is the
logical man for the position. They
realize that Horton, through the hard
ships OF his youthful .ife-when he
was forced to work day and night In
order to receive an education. is in
sympathy with the laborlng class Of
people. Every honest man on Gods
green earth adm,res man who by en-
ergy and thrift alone, has risen from
poverty to proserity. Anderson county
will give Horton handsome vote for
several reasons: First. because he Is
one Of her honorable sons. Second,
because he Is a new and clean man in
politics. Third, because they know
that he will earn the salary attached
TO the office. Fourth, because Horton
helps pay the taxes Of Anderson coun-
iy. Firth, because he will vote with
the democrats Of the south and will
promote a worthy cause and will Mt
all times work for the development
of rural districts. Seventh, because
Horton Will work FOR daily mail de-
liveries on every public highway In
the district. Eighth, because the con-
gressman has been In one family for
the period OF twenty years. Ninth. be-
cause they realize that Aiken has
been weighted in the balances and
found wanting"-e especially in voting
against the democratic party.

why Anderson county has decided to
make a change. But what 10 the use;

United States Spends More for Chewing

Than for Motor Cars


In an address at a recent automobile
banquet in Chicago Arthur Brisbane, IA
nous editor, referred to the statements
heard so frequently to the effect that the
purchase of automobiles constitutes an ex-
haustive drain on the resources Of the coun-
try as the variest piffle.
I'VE have spent vastly more on railroads.
and we still need more railroads; we are
going to have them too he said.
''Why we spend more on chewing gum or
ice cream soda than on automobiles. We
spend twice as much on tobacco and twice
as much whisky, although ali Of these
latter we could do without
1--WE cannot and do not want to do with

terized the automobile as not only one
Of the greatest inventions Of the human
mind, but as one Of the greatest factors Of

q frequently hear it said'' said Mr. Bris-
bane, that the era Of the high priced car
is past That is not true There are so 600
people in this country whose income is more
than $4,000 year. Any one Of these can
afford to pay for the highest priced car
made.
1T IS true, however that many OF these
$4,000 decline to pay an excessively high
price for their automobile, because they
consider 1t represents more extravaganza
than they should indulge in
''They are beginning to apply the same
standards to the purchase Of their motor
cars that they had to apply to acquire that
$4,000 year income. It is getting so $1,000

other hand a great many wealthy men
