A CARD

Attention, Tobacco Growers of George
town, Williamsburg and Surround
ing Counties:
l take this method to announce
that I will operate the Planters Ware
house, now under construction, this
coming season. This warehouse will
be located in the city of Georgetown.
We will be able to offer you an the
latest improvements, an experienced
force to handle your product, and Will
give you just as good service in
Georgetown as can be had anywhere
on earth. l have handled South Car
olina tobacco for the past eight sea-
sons, and this experience, together
with the advantage of our full corps
of buyers gives you the guarantee of
getting full value for your tobacco.
l am known to some who will read
this and no doubt have served a few
and will appreciate the patronage OF
any of my old friends and customers
who come to see me in my new home.
Georgetown is logical place for
a big tobacco market, having many
natural advantages. We have freight
rates that no other market can COM
pare with and labor in abundance,
which are prime considerations with
the buyer in these labor troublesome
times. Our roads are better than
those of some neighboring counties,
which enables the farmer to bring
his tobacco to market without killing
his team.
AS you all know, Georgetown has
wholesale and retail stores in abun-
dance which enables you farmers to
buy cheaper and better goods. So
bring your tobacco on to old George
town, where I will guarantee you the
market value of your goods, do your
shopping where you have ample facil-
tiles, and thus kill two birds with one
stone.
Just a word to our new tobacco
growers and beginners: When you
have put down your fertilizer, stop
and consider, then put few hundred
more pounds to the acre-S-3-3 goods
if obtainable. Tobacco is a plant that
should never be allowed to stop grow
ing until the stalk is fully matured,
which generally takes ninety days,
so plow your tobacco well once week
and more if the rains harden the dirt
around the weed. By all means keep
YOUR tobacco free of suckers. Unless
you do, you need not expect to make
good tobacco, and in my opinion
man that has common tobacco to Of
fer this season will be in bad fix.
Every man in topping his tobacco
must be his own judge. Give the
plant all the leaves it will stand; do
not top too high, but top so that your
top leaves, commonly known as tips,
will be as large and fully matured as
the leaf in the middle of the plant. l
will be in Georgetown from now until
the close of the tobacco season, and
will be only too glad to come to your
fields and give my opinion and advice.
Just drop me a card and l will be
glad to call on you and help you in
any way.
Yours to serve,
TOM L. HUTCHINS.

SCHOOL NOTES.

Friday morning a fifteen minute
rally for the game was held. Cap
tain Eric Waldorf, Gene Hawkins,
Glen Johnson and Ronald Warnock
spoke. The three members of the
team told US what they expected to
do and what we should do from the
side lines to help the team along.
Ronald was in charge. of the ticket
selling and made report as to the
number sold, and also that those wh6
hadn't bought ought to. After that
we gave some poppy yells to get in
practice for the game.
The first class party of the season
was a Senior party given at the Hunt
ing home on Friday evening. The
house was attractively decorated
with dahlias and asparagus. A very
interesting evening was planned by
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1920-10-07

the entertainment committee. One
feature of the evening was the candy
making. Each one brought some sug-
ar and when all this was made into
candy we had enough to feed larger
cvrowd than was there. Seeing that
crowd wasn't more to come, those
present ate it all. Nobody was sick,
but the refreshments remained un-
eaten. Such a good time was had by
all, that another is planned in the near
future. 81. g.
Last Tuesday the high school and
the grades in the high school build
ing had their pictures taken on the
lawn. To date we haven't seen any
of the pictures but We doubt if bet
ter looking bunch can be found any
where around.
A prize of free football season
ticket has been offered to the student
turning in the best yell this week.
We had a little additional excite
ment last Thursday when an explos-
ion in the general science laboratory
resulted from a tube in which nitro
gen was being made being overheated.
A girl tainted and a boys face was
cut up a little. *
A H. S. Glee Club is being started.
The students interested in that work
are having their voices tested. With
the material in the high school and
Miss Jarsaw to lead we will have a
good glee club. For the past several
years we have had only assembly
work and this new work ought to
take we'll with those interested in
music.
The proposition of having an as
sociated student body for the coming
year has been put before the students
by Mr.. .Staley. This will be new
organization and seems to be popu-
lar from the start. It's purpose will
be to finance the activities of the
high school. This will be accom-
plished by paid membership. All mem
bers will be admitted by this to games
and other pay affairs.

ing to that on the standard Ford
manifold to any heat the occasion
demands.
The result is that one gets that
increased mileage given by any hot
spot manifold without the lack of
aCceIeration and power on long
drives and hot days which is COM
mon to others. One does not have
to put in a number OF cylinder
gaskets which cut down compress
sion and reduce power to avoid
pre-ignition and pounding. Becaus"
with this manifold one regulates tn"
heat to suit the occasion. All OF
these advantages are gained az an
economical figure.
1t is estimated that with the

fold mileage is increased conserva-
lively 20 per cent. This appliance
can be installed in a few minutes

The police Judges are absolutely
impartial. having only license tag
numbers to go by. They select
numbers for various demonstrations
of careful and lawful operation OF
cars. And one OF the things most
noted. according to the officers re-
ports, is the extension of a hand
by the mOtorist about to make a
turn.
"A lot of drivers seem to believe
that ii is old-fashioned to put out a
hand before making turn or stop
ping at busy place" said one of
the four traffic men. AS matter
of fact, its strictly according to reg
ulation and big factor in avoiding
injuries to pedestrians and damaged
cars"
General careful driving" is an
other feature frequently earning
citation and subsequent elevation to
the Roll of Honor.
Physicians Careful.
Women drivers continue to make
up gnodly percentage of the honor
roll, six attaining to that distinction
last week. II is noteworthy that
four physicians names also appear.
Doctors, did they wish, could in
most cases Drive less carefully than
other persons, relying on the expla-
nation that they were on their way
to a patient. But almost without
exception they are found among the
most observant and law abiding mo-
torists. Long and frequent use of
machines has not bred careless ma
nipulation in the profession.
The HERALD inaugurates its seventh
careful -sGto-driving contest with
evidences on every hand, in reduc-
tion of traffic mishaps and by word
of mouth and letter to the automo-
bile editor that the Washington pub
lie has taken up in earnest the cam
paign to eliminate careless and dam
gerous operation of machines.
The Washington herald., 1920-10-10

Four crossing policemen detailed
by Capt. Albert J. Headley. chief
of the tranic branch, jotted down
license numbers of fifty orderly
proceeding cars at their stations
and transmitted them to the auto
mobile editor of The Herald, who
ascertained the corresponding
names at the District license office.
These are the ones appearing on
this weeks roll of honor, and The
Herald hereby congratulates every
one of them as deserving of imita-
tion by the thousands of other Dis
