WHAT the EDITOR SAYS

now
Texas politics not yet clear"
What politics are clear? An
swer that.
The news reports said: "Tol
bert takes oath of office" What
is the oath of some men and
things worth?
Coley Blease is known as the
governor who turned the crimi-
mails out. Wilson. G.. Harvey as
the governor who did not.
Tuesday November seventh is
election day. 1t is the duty of
all Democrats to vote just as if
the party candidates had oppo-
sition.
That old Stillman case bobs up
every now and then. To the
eyes and noses of real decency
this case is so repulsive and Of
fensive that it should be buried
from sight. But then some other
sepulchral case would take it's
place. Great is America.
The Blue Nose" is the name
of the Canadian fishing vessel
that Won the trophy cup over the
American vessel named Henry
Ford" Now If it had been Red
Nose," Henry would have come
out first possibly. But the red
nose is not so prominent as in
days gone by.
Old Booze is writhing in it's
death struggle. 1t is doomed.
N" one not even those financially
or bellyancially interested in The
popskull stuff really believe pro-
hibition is failure. The very
fact that prohibition is fought 50
hard is evidence of its true worth
and it's success. People do not
fight dead lions but real live ones.
Governor Harry revoked the
parole granted by Governor
Cooper TO a convict. Judge
Prince ruled that the governor
had no power to revoke the pa.
role and turns the criminal loose.
Possibly the Judge reasoned that
the convicts had little chance
of getting free by pardons or
paroles of our Law and Order
governor and that he would help
the poor misguided creatures a
little. Well Judge, the criminal
class think more highly of you
now. No matter what we law.
and.order folks think.
Some farmers and planters are
so prejudiced against what they
call "oook farming" that if they
happened to read what they saw
WAS good farm doctrine, would
be slow to profit by it. What is
book farming?" IT is the ex
perience of men who know what
is what, many of them learning
from experience. Book farm.
ing" is the farming that has di.
rectly or indirectly revolutioniz-
ed farming. Real book farm.
ing" is farming from experience
or knowledge derived from ex
perience and handed out to 9th
ers. II is far better farming
than the kind often met with
where a poor fellow works him
self half to death raising cotton
exclusively and then sells it and
spends it for hay. meat and 9th.
er things he could have raised
at home, thereby enabling him
to make some cotton as surplus
profit crop.

Since the last issue of The County
Record considerable cleaning-up has
been going on in Kingstree and the
rough has probably been reached and
scratched. The bulk Of the towns
filth and rubbish will be reached in
time, we think. Last Friday and
Saturday the Boy Scouts turned to
and removed the piles of filth and
rubbish that had been cleared up
around various premises. Wagons
ere still employed carrying off such
junk as has been placed where it is
easily accessible. We verify believe
that the town is being renovated and
what we want is q board of health
that will keep up the work whenever
and wherever necessary and if the
board is not supported in its work
by the towns officials, it has re-
course. Health Officer Kinder has
already destroyed number Of open
closets the past week and has had
quite e number of sanitary or fly
proof closets contracted, others are
underway.

Muscle Shoals and make it g. vast
nitrate center, Ford's offer will new
ertheless havegiven to the South a
greater advertisement than all the
railroads and all the water power
companies in this section combined
have ever given it, in the way of
publicity through every newspaper
and in every business office in the
land.
Moreover, if Muscle Shoals is de-
veloped by the government for vast
ritrate-making interests, Ford's in
terest in the South has become so
great that it is possible his activities
may be centered upon other great
hydro electric potentialities of which
there are many not yet utilized. His
attention We know has been called
to some of the larger opportunities
awaiting development, and with his
enthusiasm for water power and with
his realization of the South's vast
resources and of its enormous posi-
bilities fo- carrying on his present
activities as we'll as for the develop
ment of the things which he antici-
pated doing at Muscle Shoals, there
may come out of this whole agitation
some few movements which will stim-
ulate the larger utilization of South
em water powers now lying idle.
The attention of others, too, will be
centered upon these possibilities, and
the South to a larger extent than
for many years will now become the
focusing point for the thought and
the energy OF the capitalistic interests
of the entire country.
We repeat, Henry Ford has render
ed the South service of immeasur-
able value in forcing congress to
recognize and utilize Muscle Shoals.

Ancient Warriors of Williamsburg.
(By William Willis 3oddie.)

(By William Willis 3oddie.)
France and England fought many
years before it was finally determined
that England should control the North
American continent. France secured
and utilized the aid end assistance
of the Indians n these Colonial Wars.
Fighting civilized troops with this
French and Indian mixture brought
about many barbarities for which the
historian finds it hard to forgive
France. However, the treatment the
English accorded the Acar;ans, fifty
two of whom finally found homes in
Prince Frederick's Parish, prevents
the English from "taIling about"
French conduct in that period.
The greater part of the fighting in
these English, French and Indian
Wars was done in the North, about
the Great Lakes and along the St.
\ Lawrence river. However, in 1859,
the Cherokees broke out against the
English in South Carolina, and South
Carolina pacifed them wintin three
months.
In 1742, a number Of the citizens
Of Williamsburg petitioned the King
for the redress CT many grievances,
reciting among other things, that they
stood ready at all times to serve His
Majesty and fight his battles. 1t is
very interesting to read the names
of the sons and grandsons of these
petitioners among those who answer
ed the first roll call for service that
the King made. Conspicuous "mong
them: Captain William Scott and
his irst sergeant, Alexander Scott
sons of John, and brothers of John
and Joseph Scott of the War of the

Some Things to Do this Month.

Spray roses for leae blight and
mildew with the following: One
ounce potassium sulphide to 3 gal
Ions of water, l ounce CT mild soap
to each gallon Of the solution will
make the liquid adhere to the plants.
Metal containers must not be used
in mixing the spray. This spray will
control mildew, leaf spot and leaf
blotch or insects that are eating the
foliage.
Preserve :ew eggs for home use
while they are cheap and easy to get,
To preserve Is oozen eggs in water
glass, select 5 gallon crock (earth-
en- or stonc) and clean it thoroughly,
then scald and allow 70 dry. Heat
10 to IL quarts water to the boiling
pint, and allow to cool. When cool
measure out 9 quarts of water, place
ir the crock, and add l quart of
sodium silioate Commonly called
water glass;, which can be purchased
at any drug store. Stir well so that
the solution is thoroughly mixed eggs
can be pit in one at the time while
they are fresh. Do net put in any
stale, dirty Or cracked eggs. Be sure
that the solution covers the eggs by
atleast inches at all times. Keep
crock in cool, dry place and cover
with tight lid or waxsd paper TO
prevent evaporation.
This is one of the hest growing
months in the year for chicks. Dust
all hens and chicks with good insect
powder. Pay particular attention to
head lice that may be On baby chicks.
Provide chick size charcoal and ground
bone or meat scraps in the mash
hopper, feed when practical. Sour
milk should be fed constantly, it is
& good substitute for nsat scraps.
Furnish plenty of green feed for
chicks. Watch for cats, t.awks and
etc. Clean summer quarters at once.
Spray house to kill verniin. Make
spring cleaning ia poultry yard.
Get your canning equipment all
ready so as to be ready to start at
the beginning of the season and save
all surplus fruits and vegetables for
home use. Plan to bring some thing
TO the community market every Sat-
urday, be there and see what the
other fellow is doing.

What Henry Ford has Done for tn
South.

A service of immaasurable value
has been rendered to the South by
Henry Fori. He has converted all
the skeptics in the country including
congressman, who, heretofore, have
undertaken 70 belittle Muscle Shoals,
as to the enormous value Of the Ten
nessee river for transportation and
for hydro-electric development. He
has quickened the eagerness of all the
banking interest identified with water
power development and all the water
power people to secure this property,
which so long went a-begging be-
cause the national government under
Democratic and Republican control
would never recognize its full value
and its illinitable potentialities for
the betterment of water transporta-
ton on the Tennessee river for the
creation of hydro-electric power,
which woulo add it is safe to say,
hundreds OF millions of dollars to
the wealth of the South, and thus
tc the wealth of the country.
The despised and neglected Muscle
Shoals has now become the center Of
the nations thought and Congressman
who have heretofore secuted its val
ue have now come to a full and
frank recognition of what the utiiza-
tion Of this great potentiality means
for the wealth Of the nation.
Ford has been the genius who has
created this new value for. Muscle
Shoals. If congress decides that the
national government should develop

A Thought Stimulator.

1t is interesting to note that some
of the most important news and edi-
torials of the day are to be found
in the advertising columns Of the
newspapers.
Time was when an individual OF
an organization with an ideal would
try to convert the editor Of a news
raper to the idea, and failing, the
idea would die for lack Of publicity.
Today this individual or organiza-
ton buys advertising space. This is
costly. It's use is limited. But it is
cheaper and more efficient than 'hir-
ing hail."
This advertisement recently appear
ed in the morning paper in two
column space, four inches deep:
81 will pay $1,000 to anyone who
will give one good reason why the
revolver manufacturing industry
should be allowed to exist in America
end enjoy the facilities OF the mails.
(Signed) "Joh(n R. Thompson,
Chicago, ILL.,
l do not have the remotest idea
who Mr.. Thompson is, but, speaking
for the reaGer, l will say that his
statement was the most thought-stim-
rlating item, in the paper.
I hold no brief for or against the
revolver manufacturing industry
But 1 do think the indiscrininate
distribution of small firearms, which
can be carried on the hip, is provoca-
tive of more crime and more murders
than any other one thing.
l worked on newspapers for sew
eral years, and l have been close
reader of newspapers all my life,
yet I, canYot recall hail dozen in
stances when g. householder, a pedes-
trian or an automobilist saved him
self from attack by thug or burg
lar by use Of a revolver.
On the other hand, I have read of
hundreds of citizens and policemen
being shot down by youthful thugs,
armed with revolvers. I have read
of men, and women shooting each
other in hot blood and bringing un-
told misery upon themselves, all of
which would have been avoided had
they not had these guns in their
houses or on their persons.
For every burglar that is shot in
home, my guess would be that
twenty children end adults accident
ally shoot themselves or others while
tinkering with small firearms.
Recently there appeared in news
paper an advertisement telling Of a
revolver disguised as small jack
knife. In Hcact, at one end was the
hinge of q blade, and at the other,
the mouth of small pistol from
which a 22-caliber bullet could be
discharged.
The advertisement stated: Zone of
these pistols can be shipped you by
mail without a permit"
Why, in the name of common sense,
should anyone wish, or be allowed,
to carry revolver disguised as a
jackknife!
In some states it is felony to
carry a revolver without police per-
nit, punishable by Imprisonment in
the penitentiary.
I hope that Mr.. Thompson will stir
up enough discussion with his adver-
tisement Sc that commerce in re-
volvers will become as circumscrib-
ed as commerce in such drugs as
morphine and opium.

Listen to Reason!

With the wisdom of sage Poor Richard said:
'If you do not hear Reason she will surely rap your
knuckles."
The advertising you find in this paper is 100 per
cent Ignore its messages and you neglect
opportunity, overlook vital information and put your
: self in way to have your knuckes raped Heed
them and you connot fail to profit
Sometimes, the advertisements guard you from
making an unwise purchase by pointing out the
sons why one article suits you better than another
And always they identify for you goods of un-
questioned value. When store or manufacturing
concern puts its name on goods and tells you about
them you may be sure that they worth consdera-
tion 1t does pay advertise merchandise that is
not good
It's Worth While to Heed the
Voice of Reason. Read
