TIE BUY-A-BALE MOVEMENT
Taken Up Officially by Kings
tree Board of Trade.

At a special meeting of the ex-
ecutive committee of the Kingstree
Board of Trade held Tuesday night
for the purpose of discussing the
cotton situation and. if possible,
taking some steps toward pushing the
Buy-a-Bale plan and starting the
movement off on systematic plan,
the committee drafted and adopted
the following resolutions:
|. We resolve that the Board OF
Trade recognizes the novel Atlanta
plan of Buy-a-Bale as the most prac-
tical plan so far suggested, and in
sympathy with this movement we
hereby authorize our secretary to
buy bale of cotton at ten cents
a pound for the Board of Trade
We appeal to every public-spirited
citizen of Williamsburg county to
buy bale of cotton at ten cents a
pound from a small farmer who
needs the money most, and in this
way aid the farmer to meet his
obligations and to hold the rest of
his cotton off the market.
2. We urge that the merchants
and business men of Kingstree ask
outside business connections, firms
with whom they deal, to enter the
Buy-a-Bale movement, and in that
way help the South to bear the
burden of the present situation
caused by the European war.
8. We heartily commend our busi-
ness men who are accepting cotton
from farmers at ten cents pound
on accounts; and in view of this
liberal spirit on the part of the busi-
ness men toward the producer, we
think like spirit should be shown
by the fertilizer manufacturers to
their customers.
4. All Williamsburg citizens who
enter this movement by buying a
bale of cotton at ten cents a
pound. and thus keeping it off the
market. are requested to report it
to Mr. WI Tolley. Secretary, who
will from time to time publish a list
of their names.

Now Is the Time to Advertise.

Geo B Cortelyou, former Secreta'
ry of the Treasury and now presi.
dent of the Consolidated Gas com.
pany, Of New York city, in a recent
interview said:
Least of all do | think this
time for the abatement of publicity
efforts; indeed, these should be re.
doubled now, because if advertising
increases demand and stimulates
production, this is the time to ad'
vertise; and the merchant or manu-
facturer who keeps his product
prominently before the public now
is not only proving his faith in the
soundness and strength of American
industry, and thus setting a good ex-
ample to his more timid brother, but
is certain to reap an ample reward
in the material returns that will
come to him.
