 GOVERNMENT RECOGNITION

The Sitka cemetery, in which are buried members of early American forces in the occupation of Alaska, Is to be made a National Cemetery. according to advices received by George 4.

 This suggestion. according 70 Nr. Parks has apparently been adopted by the War Department. The survey is being made at rae request Of Secretary Weeks.

growing cotton, weevil or no Wee
vii. The weevil has not been as
plentiful nor as destructive here as
in most other sections regardless
of what has been done to combat
him.
ITO the proper cultural methods
let's add, where needed, the intelh-
gent use of calcium arsenate and
continue to make cotton a profta-
BILE crop. This does not mean to go
back to the old methods of ali-cot-
ton farming. That program can
never succeed.
There has never been an agri-
cultural section that neglected to
include live stock in its 'agricul-
ture program but failed. On the
other hand, there has never been
ed live stock in its program, but
an agricultural section that includ-
made a success. This alone should
be convincing proof that we should
emphasize hog production especial
ly. Also q few good cows on the
plantation are profitable.
with our natural advantages in
the way of grazing crops and all
kinds Of feed crops that can be
harvested by the hog, there is no
place on eal1th that can produce
cheaper hogs than this section"
Mr.. Marshall declares. "The prin-
cipal thing for our farmers is to
take an active interest in hogs,
study them like cotton has been
studied and learn something about
hogs. Bad management of hogs
hogs. Bad management of hogs
will no more produce hogs than bad
cotton management will produce
probable cotton. In fact, there is
more to learn about hogs than cot
ton.
Let farmer and business men
start the slogan of MORE HOGS
ON EVERY FARM and MORE
COTTON PER ACRE." says Mr..
Marshall, "and our prosperity is
assured"

You people who have the time and
wherewith to think must realize New
Year resolutions have been wrong
1921 years.
IN the past we have solemnly sworn
to stop certain things.
In the future we should Solomonly
swear to start certain things.
1t is simply a case of the atmos-
phere overcoming the hemisphere;
the positive taking the place of the
negative, or a similar something.
During these past 1921 times the
difficulty has been in finding simple
things to swear to start doing. 1t
was easy to locate simple things not
to do.
You could swear not to make mil
lion and live up to it in spite of all
.inclinations to the contrary.
You could swear off shooting ele-
plants and, without an uncommon
streak of bad luck you shot no ele-
plants
You'd swear off smoking which
you had to do, if you got any cigars
for Christmas.
You could swear off cussing traf-
tic cops and not: break it more than
once, or perhaps just half that often.
Finding simple things to swear
not to do has been as easy as con
vincing a girl she is. the exact image
Of a movie star.
But finding simple things 20
swear to do has been as hard as
convincing a bowIegged girl she IS
knock-kneed.
Realizing the terrible shortage Of
simple things to swear to do we are
giving away a list free.
This list is so easy a college grad
uate can grasp it.
We even venture so far as. to say
lyour boss could understand several
of the minor suggestions,

RESOLUTIONS BY TOM SIMS

1t is the only 1928 list of swears

Swear that you will go hungry if
you have nothing to eat for while.
That you will let it get dark every

That you will pay the coal dealer
what he asks you to pay.
That you will get wet if you stand
in the rain long enough.
That you will let Congress forget
why it was elected.
That, no matter how mad, you
will refuse to whip. Jack Dempsey.
That you will let the sun continue
to rise just about sunup.
That (unless you are too rich) you
will pay your taxes.
That you will let perpetual motion
remain a secret.
That you will let your colds get
we'll of their own accord,
That you will wear what the style
makers say wear.
That you will let Wednesday come
between Tuesday and Thursday.
That you will kiss any girl who
wants you to kiss her.
That the missing link shall stay
missing as far as you are concerned.
That you will jump when your
wife tells you to jump.
That you will let Amundsen visit
the north pole for you.
That you will never insist there be
two nights without day between.
! That you will be behind with your
grocery bill.
That you will say this is the worst
blankety blank country in the uni
verse even though you know it is
/ the best.
Our ninety-nine-year guarantee
that none of these resolutions will be
broken, no matter how f1imsy they
are made, goes to every reader.
But what we started out to say
was Happy New Year"

NO NEW STAR IN SOUTH'S
BUSINESS PERMANENT.

Since the advent of the boil
weevil, our farmers, bankers, mer
chants and professional men have
searched for ANOTHER money
crop. Thus far no one has settled
denitely on any crop that will take
the plice of cotton, nor will they
in our opinion. No new star yet
shines in the business armament of
the South.
Cotton is and will be our main
crop. We can produce cotton prof
itably, this we proved in 1922.
1t is not a case of changing our
crop, but of changing the methods
of producing this crop, and of tax
ing advantage of other crops which
will AID as a money crop-or
rather will be supplementary
money crops.
Several side lines have been de-
veloped to some extent and all are
good, such as producing cream for
cash and using skim milk for pigs;
growing some sweet potatoes; but
ter and more poultry products, and
other such lines of work.
CATER some years of thought
along this line it appears evident
that there are two. real main line
money crops for Sumter county,
namely cotton and hogs says Geo.
O. Marshall, county farm demon
stration agent. Both of these
crops can be grown probably in this
county.
"The boil weevil has been oper-
ating in Sumter county for fvs
years and during that period we
have had all conditions both fav-
orable and unfavorable for the
weevil, and our cotton crop has
not been failure yet says Mr..
Marshall. "The smallest produc-
ton for all this time has been over
10000 bales for one year. The rain
during that season would have cut
the crop considerably had there
been no weevil. It is almost sure
there can never be a year more I'M
favorable for cotton than the one
referred to.
"The majority Of Sumter's farm
crs farm intelligently, and nature
mas aided them materially in max
ing this county a good section for

WHAT WILL 1928
BRING FORTH?

What does 1928 hold in store for
you? Better things in a money
way, probably, for the outlook is
that There will be more prosperity
to be divided among the American
people.
AS for other things that go to
make up happiness, a good thought
with which to start the new year is
that life is what we make It, and
real happiness a condition of heart
and mind
Ahead, then, with pep! Time is
giving us a new deal with the
cards. Forget mistakes of 1922
and begin afresh.
The start of a new year is al
ways fascinating, because it opens
the door of the unknown. The
curtain rises on a new act of the
eternal dra ina, life.
The plot is not cut and dried in
advance. You, as one of the actors,
help shape it. Many who starred
in previous acts will fade to the
back of the stage-or be carried
out through the wings, stilled for
ever The lead roles are always
changing.
What new Mansfield or Irving or
Rernhardt will spring into the lime
light and fame in 1928? No one
knows. The future is yelled
More than any year in the past,
1928 holds promise for great spec
tacular events in mans penetration
of the unknown.
A powerful undercurrent became
evident in humanity during 1929
a spiritual Weakening, a renewed
interest in the hereafter, in our
purpose here On earth, and that
mysterious depth known as the sub
conscious mind.
Psycho-analysis and similar
phenomena, incorrectly called
"crazes," all are leading up to some
sensational new development for
humanity at large.
The World War, titanic struggle,
was forerunner of something new
and tremendous. Great spiritual or
physchic forces Shook civilization
to its foundation. Leading up to
what? We may know, before the
end of 1928. Forward, across the
threshold of the unknown.
