OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.
Edited by T. NJ. Cathcart
Hog Sale

Next Saturday, December ID, al
Lake City, Mr.. ]. j. NJ. Graham, OF
Cades, will put up for sale to the
highest bidder a fine lot of Poland
China and Duroc hogs. These hogs are
we'll bred, and are in fine growing
shape. They were purchased by Mr.
Graham from a reliable breeder in
Virginia about two weeks ago. All OF
these hogs were treated by me with
in the past week against cholera. All
were given the double treatment ex-
cept the sucking pigs, and they were
given the single treatment.
This is fine lot of hogs, and every
farmer that possibly can should at
tend this sale and purchase at least
a good registered pig or gilt. We viii
have to raise more livestock, and the
sooner we make the STRAIT the better
off we will be.
Mr.. Graham guarantees every hog
to be as represented, and registered
papers go with every hog purchased

AGE OLD CHEMICAL Law UPSET BY
PERSISTENT MEDICAL SCIENTIST
Discovery Which May Prove to Be the Solution Of a
Problem Upon Which Medical Science Has
Worked for Years

1t would seem that medical science
has scored new victory and made
new and most remarkable discovery,
one that will have a far reaching in
fuence on the physical betterment of
present and future generations, and
one which bids fair to quickly estab-
lish itself in the public regard as a
most remarkable step toward the al
deviation of human suffering.
Medical scientists have long known
that the greatest single human fabric
rebuilder is iron-the most powerful
of all tonic agents for the blood and
the greatest known restorer of physi-
cal vitality.
But, efficacious as iron is' known to
be, not every sufferer has hitherto
been able to avail themselves of its
potent healing and building power be-
cause iron tends to induce constipa-
ton.
1t has also been true that iron was
not assimilable to all stomachs and
for that reason many have suffered
for years because their stomachs
could not assimilate the very rem
edial agent that their system would
so quickly respond to.
But science eventually wins and a
method has at last been discovered to
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1919-12-11

combine an energetic vegetable laXa-
tive with an easily assimulated iron
tonic and so produce the greatest re-
constructive tonic known to medical
science.
If reports of this remarkable med
ical discovery are true, and they seem
to be we'll substantiated by hundreds
who have been healed and restored by
the new discovery, it would seem that
many sufferers could now turn to the
new medicine with great hope.
The new medicine has been named
FERROLAX and the stories, already
current, of its remarkable healing and
restorative power in cases of blood
and stomach diseases are causing
thousands to inquire where this new
and wonderful reconstructive tonic
may be obtained.
Ferrolax is sold by Farmers Drug
Company, Hemingway; w. V. Brock
ington, Kingstree; Cockfeld Drug
Company, Johnsonville. Get bottle
at this store today. Take it according
to directions and if it does not do you
the good you want done come in and
get your money back. Your bare word
is good enough for US. Watch for
the next issue of this paper and see
what Ferrnlax is doing for others.

SOUTH CAROLINA
SERVICE MEMORIAL
Continued From Page II

Continued FROM rage
ed to them. Therefore, the commits
sion, meeting at Columbia, December
4. decided to continue the campaign
until June l, 1920, that every COM
munity of the State might be given
the opportunity to show its appre-
citation OF those South Carolinians
who made the supreme sacrifice.
The commission at this meeting
. likewise adopted resolution asking
Governor Cooper to recommend to the
General Assembly the receding Of
the Act, so that the selection of the
site for the memorial in the city Of
Columbia be left to the discretion of
the commission.
The commission desires to empha-
size:
|. That the form of memorial is
mandatory as set out in the joint re-
solution and that the non-utilitarian
idea is the expression Of the LegiSla-
ture
+ ,. That under the present plan.
however, the building will be not en-
tirely of a non-utilitarian character,
as it will contain a large auditorium
in which the veterans of this and
other wars can meet and other meet
ing of an historical, patriotic or edu-
cational nature may be held.
8. That the memorial is in no sense
a Columbia project; it is Statewide in
it's application. Nor will it be for the
benefit of the University of South
Carolina, for the commission desires
it to be placed under the supervision
of the State Historical Commission.
The University of South Carolina has
generously agreed to donate site on
Main Street in Columbia, in the rear
of the Capital building, where the
building would be seen by practically
every visitor to Columbia, and this
land is worth thousands of dollars.
The structure will be a substantial
work of ant and will stand as a memo
rial for all time.
4. In the building there will be pro-
vided an alcove for each county, where
bronze or other suitable tablets re-
cording and perpetuating the supreme
sacrifice made by its white sons and
daughters in the world war will be
placed.
5. The structure will contain a
large auditorium, as outlined in the
foregoing, and a hall of records for
the preservation of documents and
historical data appertaining to the
persons and organizations from South
Carolina who participated in the
world war.
g. Unless South. Carolina has some
kind of repository, the imperishable
history of this State in the struggle
of Democracy against Autocracy will
be imperfectly preserved, and, in af-
ter years, the record will be incom-
plete like that of the war between
States.

MARKETING ASSOCIATION

Now that the Williamsburg Mar
keting association is assuming shape
in the form of a most important
county organization and promises to
be in effective operation next year,
it behooves every farmer in the coun-
ty to stand squarely behind the pro-
ject. it is for his own good to do so
as weel as the material upbuilding of
his community and the county at
large.
A charter has been asked for and
granted the organization and in few
days canvass will be made through
out the county by competent solici-
tors asking our farmers, merchants,
and bankers to subscribe to the capi-
tai stock of the association.
The scheme is not a new one, nor
is it a get-rich-quick proposition, al
though it means financial increases to
our citizens who take advantage of
the opportunity to become stockhold-
ers. 1t is plan devised by men Of
brains and money and endorsed by
leading citizens of the South.
Necessity is the mother of inven-
ton. So when the boil weevil began
its incursions in the cotton belt and
its predatory raids pointed to power
ty and ruin, men set to work devising
plans to defeat the ravages of this
pest. 1t was found that diversified
farming and stock raising were the
first important essentials in this di-
rection. Cotton culture was greatly
reduced. or the method of cultivation
radically changed, but even then
without full measure of success.
New crops were planted and abun-
dainty produced. Then the marketing
question naturally arose. This propo-
sition was met in the form of just
such an organization as the Williams
burg Marketing Association will pro-
vide for the valuable products of
YOUR farm, to which you have not
heretofore been called upon, of nee
essity to cultivate to any great ex-
tent or for outside markets. In other
words many of us have known moth
y ing but cotton as money crop. Now
we are obliged to look to other crops
for cash. We all know the value Of
sweet potatoes, peanuts, soy and vel
vet beans. corn and oats, all of which
may be produced aDunuahIly Ill VIII
liamsbu-g and profitably, too, through
a we'll organized marketing associa-
ton
In the matter of sweet potatoes 1t
is proposed by the association first to
erect curing houses at various points
in the county, Kingstree, Trio, Gree
lyville, Cades and Gourdin, where
farmers may place their potatoes and
have them cured and put into market
able condition without loss. Then, Ii
we understand correctly, these pota-
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1919-12-11

toes will be bought and paid for, at
their market value, by the associa-
ton, at its central office and depots i'll
Kingstree, OF shipped and sold on a
commission basis.
In years past thousands of bushels
of sweet potatoes have been raised
by our farmers only to rot. because
he had no way of properly curing
them for shipment and knew little Of
their real market value outside Of
his own community.
The Williamsburg Marketing asso-
citation will keep itself informed as to
the big markets of the world, and
will find a market, OF a purchaser for
anything our farmers may produce
or raise, whether it be fruit, vegeta-
bleS, hay grain poultry OF livestock.
You will be kept advised as to the
market conditions, advised as to when
to sell and when not to sell. You will
be relieved of the dilema which has
in the past confronted you when you
had something to sell, and no place
to sell it.
Right now, we are informed, pea
nuts are worth s225.00 the ton. We
known they must be bringing about
S11OO a ton from the way they are
sold here in KingStree at the peanut
roasters. We are told that with prop
er cultivation, our lands will produce
two tons of nuts to the acre and
two tons of hay, the latter being an
excellent roughage for stock. There
fore we are strongly advised to raise
peanuts, and the proposition is foster
ed by the leading agriculturists Of
the State and Federal government.
Your marketing association will furn-
ish a means of threshing and con-
verting the peas into cash.
In this connection there are other
valuable farm crops that we can pro-
duce here in Williamsburg without
costly preparations covering several
years of time, and by their early
adoption Mr.. Boil Weevil, who has
already made his appearance here,
will be defeated of livelihood with
in our borders and his ultimate ex-
tinction hastily terminated.
Let us then, turn our attention to
tobacco, potatoes, peanuts, corn,
beans, peas, grain, poultry, sheep,
hogs, cattle, and only so much cotton
as we feel that we can afford to give
over to the weevil.
There is, we venture to say, no
county in the cotton belt better pre-
pared to combat this pest at short
notice than Williamsburg, provided
we get down to business without de-
lay, and there is no better way than
has so recently been made clear to US
by the South Carolina Land Owners
association-through the organiza-
ton of a marketing association to
handle the products we are to substi-
tute, for a time at least, for Old King
cotton.
