THE AMBITION LOST.

A great farm boys formerly hat
one grand overpowering ambition
to leave the old homestead at tn,
earliest opportunity and strike out fol
'an easier time" in town.
But of late years We have noticed
that this ambition is no longer work
ing over time.
The boys of Dillon courty very
wisely see the value of sticking to
the soil, for there never was a time
when opportunities on the land were
as good.
The average good farmer is better
off financially than the average bus
mess man in town, while compared
with the average salaried man in town
well, there is no comparison.
Stay out there on the farm, young
fellow. When you feel like enjoying
the city take your dads automobile
and have fling with us. Enjoy the
best we've got and avoid the worst.

he has lost heavily as a result of his
venture. He will make about one,
tenth of the cotton he made LASH yeal
and this is only the second year OF
weevil conditions"
Colleton is only stones throw from
Dillon, as distance is measured these
days. At the rate of progress the
weevil is making it should reach Dill
Ion about year after next. Only a
small proportion of our lands are
planted in tobacco as compared to the
cotton acreage, and now is the time
for the farmers to begin to turn their
attention to other crops. If prices
hold up there will be big surplus
of money in the country this fall.
This money must be invested and it
might be well to begin to think about
building mills for crushing peanuts or
cold storage plants to take
care of fruits and vegetables.

A GOOD FRIEND.

Kidney Pills have stood the test. w.
A. Weaver, shoe maker of Main St.,
Dillon endorsed Doan's four years ago
and again confirms the story. Could
you ask for more convincing testi-
mony?

sore and lame in the mornin," says
Mr.. Weaver. My sight became blur
red and the secretions from my kid
neys acted irregularly. l had other
symptoms of kidney trouble. Friends
Doan's Kidney Pills and

Co., and they soon relieved me of my
trouble and fixed me up in fine
shape"
The above statement given Decem-
Der %, 1914, and on January 20,
1918, Mr.. Weaver said: 81 have never
heard of a kidney medicine that can

tom of kidney trouble and l am only
too glad to recommend them again.

THE BOIL WEEVL'S PROGRESS.

The Farmers of Dillon county may
rs well begin to prepare for the boil
weeVil. He is coming. Just when he
viii arrive is a matter of speculation,
but that he will come is just as GER
tain as the rising and setting of the
sun. The boil weevil has almost
crossed the cotton belt. He made his
hrst appearance in Texas and his
progress toward the east has been
slow but distressingly methodical.
Millions have been spent trying to
arrest his progress, but all the lab
ratory experts of the nation have not
been able to check him. Heretofore
We have looked upon the coming of
the boil weeyil as something too re-
mote to give us much concern. but it
is probable that in the next two or
three years We will have u first hand
acquaintance with this battling insect
that fras done so much damage to the
south. The weevil has crossed the
Savannah river and begun its work of
destruction in South Carolina. The
lower tier of counties are beginning TO
suffer.
The WATERFORD Press and Standard,
published at the county seat of Col
Teton county which has its western
6Uundry on the Savannah river, says
the boil weevil has entered Collcton
county. For years the Press and
Standard has been warning its read
ers against the coming Of the wCeTil
and now i. comes Out with an editor
iaI under the caption The Boil
wecviI is Here"
There are many skoptical per-,
sons over the county" says the Pre-
and Standard, 'who have been loath
TO believe that the bell wcevil would
ever come to Collc,on. They have
thought something would happen to-
prevent his coming and that in some
mysterious manner he wou'd hardly
make his appearance, rs there cOu!a

Watch the stock salesman, He is
abroad in the land. His visits to this
section are becoming more and more
frequent. He knows the people are
getting ahead and the fertile Pee Dee
with its fine crops of cotton and to-
bacco offers an inviting field to the
man who has something to sell. All
stocks are not bad, but the best stocks
are those hard to buy. They are not
sold through brokers whose agents go
among the people and solicit buyers.
They sell themselves. The oil stock
salesman is making his appearance.
He can show you mass of figures
where this or that gusher made mil
honaires out of poor men overnight.
These statements are correct, but the
salesman does not show you how
many well-to-do men were made pau
pers overnight by speculating in oil
stocks. Big corporations, some o. them
not fai -fror1 home, are offering stocks
for sale. The advertisements look at
tractive, but investigate them before
you buy their stock. Find out who
owns the controlling interest, ask how
many big officers are on the pay roll,
get copy of the bylaws and read it |
closely, ask for a statement Of the
dividends paid out during the life of
the company, ascertain the physical
value of the property and how much
Ca pital stock is outstanding and how
IT, stock is voted. If you do not know
much about stocks and corporations
go to your banker or lawyer and talk
with him about the stocks you want
to buy Give him all the information
you can get. Don't buy until you
know what you are buying. You
may pay one hundred cents on the

The so-called unrest" that is al
legged to be prevalent in parts of Eu-
rope and in this country can easily
be cured by a reduction in the high
cost of living. When millions of peo-
pie of Europe are compelled to fore
go necessities then of course unrest
will develop. 1t will take the world
a few seasons of crop raising to get
back on more satisfactory basis.
1t is here worth while to remark that
the people of the United States are
exceedingly better off economically
than any people in Europe, despite
continued high costs. The people of
our own section, for instance, at
least have the wherewithal, while that
cannot be said of the people in Eu-
rope.
