Money in sunflowers
lFrom the Calhoun Times.),

(From the Calhoun Tines,
The Calhoun Times is a booster
Of diversified farming. It is an un-
wayering believer in the doctrine
of a reasonable boycott on cotton.
It wants, above all things, this COM
munity and county to hit the trail
of prosperity again. It is coming
slowly. Mr.. John R. Herlong has
been hauling sunflower seed to st.
Matthews and to the Shep Pearl
stine Wholesale Company. We ask
ed him about it. He said he plant
ed fifteen acres Of his poorest land
and knew nothing about the details
of the making. Used no fertilizer
and worked it only once. Put the
rows five feet wide when they
should have been three and a half.
In spite of these handicaps he
made more money out Of the sun
flower crop than his cotton. Has
sold over $100 worth at the price
Of $50 per ton. He believes he can
easily make ton to the acre next
year. Charlie Staley. Jr., told US

LIGHT ON
THE SUBJECT
The American Legion
Explains the 0cea-
sion Of a Misun-
derstandi1lg

The original intention Of the
American Legion to observe FRI
day, November 10th, instead Of
Saturday. November 11th rs the
day on which they would ce1e-
brate Armistice Day was brought
about by the fact that they were
very desirous in this their initial
attempt at conducting Arnlistice
Day exercises, to have their efforts
supplemented by those Of the
school. children. who have in the
past rendered such attractive pro-
grams on this occasion. AS mat.
ters now stand, the Legion feels
that we should observe the 1ith
in order to comply with the act of
congress and the wishes Of she
president in this matter, and also
from standpoint Of respect to tie
fallen heroes.
The merchants of Sumter who
have always answered readily 20
any call made upon them by the
American Legion in Sumter. held
to Friday rather than Saturday be-.
cause we now learn that they felt
in so doing they were giving heed
to the wishes Of the -ex-service
men and the Legion feels that in
justice to them that they should let
the public Of Sumter know that
this original intention on the part
Of the merchants to observe Friday
was through no lack Of patriotism,
but that they were doing what they
considered TO be, falling in line
with the rest Of the celebration of
the city.
