Why Country Boys Thrive in Town.

A new theory has been developed
to explain why country boys succeed
so we'll in the city, and why so many
of the city leaders were born and
raised in the country.
1t seems that the average country
boy THINKS that the city boy is a
super man. He must be, he reasons,
or he couldn't get along.
Thinking along these lines the coun-
try boy concludes he must work very
hard or he will not get along in the
city.
So he digs in, applying himself to
his task with all the vigilance of
small boy who is ambitious to become
a big league pitcher. In the course
of a few years he finds out that city
men are not super men at all and
that he is just as bright as they are.
He also discovers that city men are
not mules for work as he supposed,
but that most of them spend a large
percentage of their time in an effort
to dodge work. Fortunately, how
ever, by the time the country boy
"comes to his senses" he is so en-
trenched in the habit Of industry that
he can't emulate his city cousins.
And so he continues to work his
head off and builds up fortune and
is envied by the next generation of
city sports.
P. S. AS we finish writing the
above, man at the next desk leans
over and tells us we have missed one
important point.
"In addition to what you have writ
ten," he says, "there is still another
reason why the country boy, with the
right stuff in him, succeeds so well
in the city. When the country boy
comes to the city he doesn't know
a soul, he has to fight so hard, friend
less and alone, that his whole moral
fibre is stiffened. If he survives this
ordeal he can't help making good
when conditions and friends begin to
favor HIM"

state cannot afford to lose this great
amount of money.
How can this enormous amount of
money be saved and added to the
wealth of our state? Cotton is one
of the best collaterals in the world
on which to have money advanced
and it is doubly so now, for it is ad-
mitted by some of the best cotton men
in the world that we have not enough
cotton for the worlds consumption in
1923 even if the consumption is no
greater for next year than it has
been this year. If this cotton is ware
housed and the receipts turned over
to the bankers, l believe that they
can get money on them and | want
to urge every farmer who has not
signed his cotton to the Cooperative
Marketing Association to warehouse
his cotton and keep it off the mar
ket. l think that you are bound to
see higher prices IN the near future.
The world is no longer going to be-
lieve the big crop estimating lies.
They are now beginning to realize
that we will make under ten million
bales this year and they are begin
ming to wonder where the cotton is
coming from to clothe the people of
the world. If not another bale of
spot cotton were sold IN the South
for 80 days, you would see cotton
sell above 25t and I think you would
even see SOC cotton. The cotton is
growing shorter every day and the
world is needing cotton cloth at it has
never needed it before. A south-wide
holding movement for better prices
shoold be started at once. So long
as cotton is thrown on the market
it will not go up.
1 know Texas is selling her cotton
about as fast as she gets it out.
Texas will not make over 8 million
bales this year and it is opening very
rapidly. By October Is, she will be
through gathering. They will soon
be through and out of the way this
year. You must remember that
Texas can make cotton at least to
z cents cheaper a pound than we can
east of the Mississippi.
The farmers, bankers and business
men of the South have the cotton sit
uation in their own hands this year
as they have not had it in so years.
They can name the price at which
they want to sell. l want to urge
our bankers and business men to get
behind the cotton and let's save South
Carolina from financial ruin by all
forces working together. We can add
many million dollars to the wealth of
our state. Single handed We can do
nothing, together we can do anything,
that is right and know that this is
right. Cotton is our great money

STAINS ON LEATHER

mends Coating With Thick Solu-
tion of Rubber Solvent That
Evaporates Easily.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
Leather goods that have been made
unsightly by grease spots and that
cannot be cleaned by ordinary clean
ing solutions can often be restored by
methods developed by the bureau of
chemistry of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. When Shoes
travelling bags, and similar articles
come in contact with butter, lard,
vaseline linseed oil, salad oil, lubri-
eating OIL or anything of the same
sort, ugly stains are produced, espe-
cially ii the leather is of light color,
and attempts to remove them with
gasoline or other ordinary grease SOL
vents result in spreading them.
The method recommended by the de-
partment consists in coating the spots
with a thick solution of rubber in a
solvent that evaporates readily and
peeling off the coating when it is al
most dry. In some cases it may be
necessary to repeat the operation sew
eral times. A solution of unvulcan-
lied rubber (Para or Ceylon) in car

part to 10 parts by weight, as well as
some of the prepared rubber cements,
has been found satisfactory. 1t is
important that the cement be very
thick and quick drying, and that pure
solvent be used. Since the fumes of
carbon bisulphide are very infiam-
mable and poisonous, 1t Is necessary
to work away from flames and where
there is good ventilation. To keep
the rubber from adhering too tightly
the leather Immediately around the
spot may be wet slightly just before
applying the rubber solution.
Milk produces spots on leather on
account of the fat it contains. In addi-
ton it often leaves a white residue,
and sometimes a dark stain. The
white residue may be removed with
soap and water, but no way is known
for taking out the brown stain. The
only way to improve the appearance
of leather so damaged is to dye it
darker than the original color
Any oil or grease spot should be re-
moved as soon as possible. 1t is espe-
cially important that spots caused by
lipseed and other paint oils be re-
moved before the oil dries, since the
,sxidized oils are but slightly soluble
in the liquids ordinarily used.
