REDUCTION IN COTTON.

The statistics issued by the Bureau
of the Census regarding the cotton
yield of Sumter county for 1915 show

lowest cost known in years worked

dition of the South. The South pro
duced more grain, more meat-more
OF the essentials to her life, than a.

Something is wrong with the South.

Because the man 1 purchase from
pays his part of the city and county
taxes. . u
because I believe in my town and
its future. "
