WE 1HOUD IMPROVE OUR BACON
Lack Of Quality Cause Of Prejudice
Against American Product.
progressive Farmer.)

" AoSi SooAfc II al ~
because American bacon sells in
England for a price far below Irish
bacon, some Americans assume that
this is due to prejudice against
American bacon caused by spoiled
American bacon having been ration
Ell during the war. There Is q "pre-
judice' against American bacon all
right, but it is chiefly due to it's i'll
ferior quality. Instead of trying to
put over inferior American bacon on
the English consumers, through a
campaign Of advertising as proposed,
American meat producers will find it
easier and cheaper to overcome this
English 'prejudico" by improving
the quality Of the product. Before
America will be able to remove this
prejudice we must produce a bacon
type hog and cure the product with
less salt. SO long as we try to make
bacon from fat, corn-fed nog and
cure 1T by the use Of so much salt.
no amount Of advertising or other
form of promotion will remove the
English prejudice against American
bacon, and induce them to cease to
discriminate against it in price.

Two Men We're Killed and Another
Badly Injured by Train.

Sumter, July 5.-Ben and William
liam G. Mcleod was badly injured
when struck Sunday night by a
freight train on the Atlantic Coast
Line railroad at Broadway Siding, be-
tween Sumter and Pinewood. All Of
the parties are white men Of the
PInewood neighborhood. Mr.. Nc
Leod's leg was broken In two places,
and he is now In the hospital for
treatment.
From the testimony adduced at
the coroner's inquest yesterday VIM.
c.. Mcleod, the only surviving men,
ber, testified that about 10 o'clock
Sunday night he and the two Brewer
boys were sitting on the railroad
track, and all were drinking. He said
that the Brewer boys stretched out
on the track and in few minutes all
were sound asleep. The first he knew
OF the accident was when he awoke,
finding himself to the side Of the
track, having been knocked from the
track. He said he did not realize he
was hurt until he tried to get up and
found numbness in his limbs. He
was about eight or ten feet from the
track when he awoke. After hearing
the evidence the jury brought in a
verdict that Ben Brewer and William
Brewer came to their deaths on July
I'd, 1922, by being run over by an
Atlantic Coast Line freight train. It
Is said that the bodies Of the two
dead men were badly mangled and
mutilated. The plight Of the injured
man and the discovery OF the bodies
OF the two was made early In the
morning, just prior to the time for
