VIII. "ce. Eve." With South.

1t seems that the Republican ma
jori.. in congress will retaliate for
the South's having been in the saddle
for the past several years. One evl-
dence is found in the steps taken
looking to the prevention of the pur-
chase of Southern Camps, Camp
Jackson being among them The Re-
publicans in congress not relish
having such large sums of govern
ment money paid out in the South,
forgetting that practically all of the
enormous pensions paid to Union sur
vivors of the Civil War have been
paid out in the North.

More Warehouses Should Be Built.

Some people learned years ago
that generally a heavy loss is sus-
tanned by keeping cotton all winter
and spring out in the weather but
others did not learn the expensive
lesson until the past season. Probably
never before has there been such a
widespread damage to cotton from
exposure to weather as there was to
the crop of 1918. This is due to two
causes. First, there was a larger
quantity of cotton held than usual
and, second, to the excessive rain.
Many who sustained loss from
damaged cotton will soon begin to
provide storage rooms on their farms
or they will, if they hold cotton
again, place it in warehouses in
towns and cities.
Some idea of the heavy loss sus-
! tained can be gained from the fol-
lowing sent out by the State Ware
house Commissioner:
"a farmer recently sold 16 bales
of cotton which were left in the
weather after ginning. The rotten
weather damaged cotton in this lot
amounted to $500 pounds, or over
four bales. The loss in money "a
mounted to $500 at 80 cents a
pound. This farmer could have ware
housed his Is bales in almost any
warehouse in the State system, had
there been room for it, for six years
for $500 and at the same time it
would have been insured against fire.
"a second farmer disposed of 60
bales of cotton a week or so ago on
which the country damage" amount
led to $500 pounds, loss at 80 cents
pound of S2,25O. He might have put
his so bales in State warehouse,
thus portecting it from the 'eather
and against fire, kept it there for six
months it lay rotting in his yard and
save at least S1,S1S of the S2,250 he
lost" -1..s.4

Al over Edgefeld you hear it.
Doan's Kidney Pills are keeping up
the good work. Edgefeld people are
telling about it-telling of bad backs
made sound again. You can believe
the testimony of your own townspeo-
pie. They tell it for the benefit of
you who are suffering. If your back
aches, if you feel lame, sore and mis-
cradle, if the kidneys act too fire.
quently, or passages are painful,
scanty and off color, use Doan's Kid
ney Pills, the remedy that has helped
so many of your friends and neigh
bors. Follow this Edgefeld citizens
advice and give Doan's chance to do
the same for you.
J. G. McNeill, Battle ST., says:
"six years ago when 1 was living in
Greenville, 1 was afflicted with
lameness in the small of my back,
which was undoubtedly caused by my
kidneys. Ny kidneys didn't act right,
being sluggish. got a box of Doan's
Kidneg Pills and used them and they
removed the trouble"
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get

consumers here are hopeful of q coma
tinued Improvement.
AT the recent meeting of the borx
ough council the matter was thorz
oughly discussed and Mayor Bogardu9

use by Keansburg during the summe1
months, although the Gas Company
claimed that the trouble was due to q
leak which could not be located, but
upon which the company has been
working for several weeks. At tha
time above stated 1t was declared by
