Those Sidewalks Again.

A few weeks ago we begged the Ci-
ty Council for a little help on the
sidewalks of the town and We asked
the citizens of Cheraw who thought
we needed a little help on the side
walks to make it known by calling it
TO the attention of the Mayor and
City Council A number of our read
ers spoke to us about it but We are
sure they failed to mention it to the
council as we haven't noticed any
marked improvement along this line.
We understand the Mayor and coun-
Gil have a street program mapped out
whereby they mean to continue the
good work done on Market and
Church streets until they have built
up every street in town. Those of us
who have ridden on these made over
streets recently realize the good that
is being accomplished by this work.
But is it fair that the people who have
to use the sidewalks should walk in
water and mud in bad weather and
over rough places until the streets
are put in apple pie" order.
In a few days hundreds of children
will trudge to and from school in all
kinds of weather and anyone who
has watched them will testify that
they walk on the sidewalks regardless
of pools of water or running streams
that form on almost every sidewalk
during a rain.
1t is hardly necessary that we call
to your attention that most of our
sidewalks are trough shaped because
if you have walked out in wet wea-
ther you were compelled to walk in
the grass alongside so you know, but
we wish you would mention the fact
to the council. 1t may help.

GOOD NEIGHBORS.

An elderly man whose opinion Is
considered worth something to the
community was asked the other day
what he thought were proper attri-
butes of "the people next door"
And he said: "I've been living here
for nearly forty years. Folks on each
side of us have come and gone. The
people | like best for neighbors are
those who do these things: They keep
the place neat and clean, favor paint
ing once in a while; hang out wash
ng every Monday morning; Tuesda
is ironing day. They'll lend their
lawn-mower if you'll bring it back.
They'll do the same with a pinch OF
salt or an egg or a cup of flour. They
will go out of their way to do favor
They keep the garbage can covered
and keep the chickens in their yard
and not in ours. They are not too
curious about who comes and goes at
our house They mind their own bu-
siness, an excellent trait. What the
grocer brings in or the laundryman
carries out doesn't interest them. They
are not snoopy. If, once. in a while
there's a good deal of noise at our
house, they don't telephone that they
are about to call the police. They are
appreciative, kindly, companionable
neighborly. They live as nearly by
the Golden Rule as is humanity possi-
BILE, | guess. And that being so, we
do the same. 1t is good plan; don't
stone your neighbor's dog; it reduces
the likelihood that he will stone
yours"
Seems as if the wise old gentleman
preached a pretty good-sized sermon
and in not so many words, either

MAKING A GOOD LAWN

Clemson College, Aug. 25.-Success
or failure in lawn making is based
on the preparation of the seed bed,
which necessarily requiras a great
care and good judgment. The physi-
cal condition of the soil may be
greatly improved by growing some
soil building crop preparatory 10
seeding. Peas or velvet beans may
be sown during the early summer
and the stubble turned in September
The land should be turned and SUBJ
soiled to a depth Of to IL inches,
and narrowed until it is thoroughly
pulverized. Before turning, a liberal
application &C to 10 tons per acre.
of we'll decomposed stable manure
and 300 pounds of lime should be
applied. When a perfect seed bed
has been made, apply 600 to 800
pounds of S-4-4 commercial fertilizer
and harrow thoroughly into the first
few inches of the soil.
The lawn grasses should be care
fully selected and only those grasses
of mixtures used that are adapted to
that locality and are capable OF
making a good sod under existing
conditions. A mixture of Kentucky
blue grass, Bermuda and white
clover is especially suitable to the
partly shaded lawn, the blue grass
predominating in the shaded por-
tions of the lawn and the Bermuda
in the sunny spots, while the clover
keeps the entire lawn green through
out the winter.
The mixture should be planted
during early October, using 30 to 30
pounds of blue grass, 4 to pounds
of clover, and proportionate
amount of Bermuda roots per acre.
The seeding of the blue grass and
the clover should follow the planting
of the Bermuda which should be
planted in rows IS inches apart
dropping the roots IL to Is inches
apart and covering to inches
deep with alternating rows. Sepa-
rate sowings of blue grass and clover
should be made, sowing the seed
broadcast by hand or by use OF a
mechanical seeder. The seed should
be covered lightly, brushing lightly
or raking into the soil, and this fol-
lowed by a light rolling.
The annual lawn, which Is neces-
sary in some cases preparatory TO
the making of a permanent lawn,
may be made by seeding with Italian
rye sown either in fall or spring at
the rate of bushels per acre. When
properly cared for this will make a
beautiful green six to eight weeks
from seeding. 1t is imperative that
this grass be cut when it has reached
a height of to 4 inches; otherwise
the lawn will be unattractive.

Circular To Farmers And Ginners.

Every buyer of Carolina staple cot
ton in this section has noticed that
an unusually large percentage of the
last crop has been rough or gin-cut
In order to discover the proportion OF
this rough cotton and find the source
of it we began, about three months
ago, taking the names Of the gins and
recording the gin names opposite the
record of the class and condition OF
each bale.
We have thus far listed 1928 bales
from IS different gins, and our class
,,ers have called 1853 bales smooth,
$50 bales slightly rough, and 14O bales
rough or gin-cut. In other words, out
of each 100 bales which we have han
died recently 79 bales were smooth, II
bales slightly rough, and 6 bales
trough or gin-cut. The percentage oil
smooth cotton coming from gins from
which were listed % bales or more
runs from 81 per cent to 100 per cent.
Only one gin made a record of 100 per
cent, the majority running between 10
and 80 per cent.
No ginner, no matter how we'll ad-
justed his machinery or how careful
he is in operating his gins, can make
a smooth sample out of wet or damp
cotton, and a percentage of the rough
bales undoubtedly came from this
cause. The tremendous. variation IN
the percentage of smooth bales from
different gins, however, shows that
there must be a great difference in
the efficiency of the work done by diff.
ferent ginners.
The value of rough cotton through
out this season has ranged from l tc
cents below that Of smooth cotton
of the corresponding grade, and we
should say that $1,000 per bale was a
very conservative estimate of the ave
rage reduction in value of the q pei
Icent of rough and gin-cut cotton.
| We have no wish to injure the bust
ness of any ginner. We feel, however
that il will be useful to all ginners and
all farmers to have their attention
called to the tremendous losses caused
by bad ginning. The ginners should
see to it before the beginning OF the
new season that their machinery is
properly adjusted, and they Should
never gin a bale which is too damp tc
gin smoothly, no matter how anxious
the farmer is to have it done.
The reputation of the cotton in this
section has been built up by careful
attention to seed, to ginning, and tc
marketing, and this reputation has
suffered during the past year on &C.
count of the low grade of the CROP
and the roughneSs Of its preparation
Everyone doing business in this Sec
ton is interested directly in the repu.
tation of Carolina staple cotton fol
that is the main source Of revenue. In
order that this section may escape the
financial disaster threatened by the
short crop, it will be necessary for a.
interests to cooperate to make every
bale bring the highest possible price
Such a price can only be realized fol
