FAST GROWTH OF. HARTsNLlE.
Four Strong Banks and great Trust
Company gives The City High Rank
Among financial StronahGids

Hartsville.-Hartsvil Is growing
rapidly Homes go up almost within
night. Several ready to build. Houses
are springing up with tightening hike
rapidlty. 1t is apparent that the hur-
ried demand for homes has inspired
the use of the ready to build patterns.
Even with these, the demand can not
be supplied.
Several new stores, nice modern
structures, will soon be built in Harts-
vile. Great piles Of brick, lumber ana
sand are assembled at different points
on the main streets. Residences are
being moved from one time domicils
sections to give place for business
houses.
Work on the Bank of Hartsyille and
the Trust Company Of South Carolina
is progressing nicely. Excavations
for underground vaults are being
made. A new front and tile floors Will
be put in. In fact, when completed
these financial institutions will do
credit to large city.
A new bank is being organized hero
with a capital Of 100000. The stock
has already been oversubscribed and
q trimming down process will probae
bly, take place. The bank will be
named the Merchants and Planters
bank Of Hartsville. Scores OF sub
stantial planters and a number OF
business men have subscribed Tor
stock. No person is allowed to take
more than $4,000, and, in fact, small
subscriptions Of from 500 to $5o0
have been sought more than large
amounts. The bank will be ready for
business probably about the first OF
September and will promote still fur
ther Hartsvilles financial advantages.
The town will, therefore, very soon
have four strong banks. and this added
to the big 100000 TRUST Company Of
South Carolina, places Hartsville in
the class Of cities, Of 10000 and more
inhabitants as to banks and financial
strongholds. = -

Cardigan was interested. Moreover,
he was anxious to aid the. N. c. o. In
every way possible. However, the
Colonel could understand this. Cardi-

possibly tend to lift the Cardigan

DEPENDENT ON GOOD ROADS
MANY Farm Crops Must Be Hauled
Some Distance to Railroad Sta

Farming is essentially dependent OH
the condition of country roads; for
whatever is not produced on the farm
must be hauled to the farm, and many
crops of the farm must be hauled

MILK AND MEAT AS RIVALS
Rising Prices May Vet Force People to
Turn to the Fluid to Sus-
tain Life.

AS the price Of meat scars upward,
many people are forced to be part
time vegetarians. Thus the old ques'
ton, 'Is meat essential to human we'll
being?" arises again. The commit
tee on food and nutrition Of the Ma
tfonal Research council has issued an
Interesting report on the relative value
of meat and milk.
Eighteen per cent of the protein and
energy of grain used in feeding a COW
goes into the milk, and is therefore
recovered for human consumption;
whereas only three and half per cent
is recovered in beef. AS for the min
eral elements in hay and grain, not
much is stored in the tissues, but
great amount goes into milk.
Beef profiteers, beware! The hard
pressed public may decide to let milk
take the place of beefsteak.-Popular
