R. to publish a letter each , week calling attention to "A Need of ( Our Town." j The letter of this week was to bring ] realization of conditions at our rail- | road station. But the proposed writer j when getting necessary information < met such prompt, gracious offers < i help toward remedying this special ? need, that it is in a fair way to dis- ] appear altogether. I Under the direction of the Civic League committee for improvement cf t the station, the whole section force | of five or six men will work during { Saturday afternoon next, from 1 j o'clock to 4:30. And it is hoped all ] good citizens will lend aid, especially j in supplying roots of Amour's Privet i Hedge (eveiigreen) and of Crepe Myrtle. I The committee will no doubt, gladly f enumerate other ways in which to 8 provo our public spirit and reduce the needs of our town. TO MOVE TO CHE RAW Resident of Ohio May Come to State. Cheraw, Feb. 20.?ttxeraw had the pleasure of having in its midst last week S. W. Moore, state horticulturist of Ohio and supervisor of its pubic grounds. Mr. Moore is considering the advisability of moving to Cheraw and engaging in business here as a horticulturist and landscape gardener. H-e spoke to the commercial peach jgrowers in this eeotion while here, telling them how to care for orchards the year round, and how to market to the best advantage. At night he spoke to the members of the Civic Tiuma n.n honntifvin** thfl town and Y the home grounds. He gave rules to! ^ lay out drives and walks, told what j n trees to plant, where to plant hedges, i and stated that shrubbery should ^ serve only as a fram-e to the home. n Much interest was manifested and " many questions were asked. It is t hoped that Mr. Moore will decide to locate In Cheraw.

I see no use Ill UUVHU5 j/iV/iut c ouvn wv??v?w . ?a subscription to this paper. Don and myself enjoy reading it every Monday morning, and especially enjoy the athletic column. I certainly expect to see the game between thd Detroit Americans and Rochester Internationals. Yours truly, Maltoy Evans, i THE WATER PRESSURE Editor Cheraw Chronicle: Mr. Smith took exception to what I said about the water system in a re- ( ;ent issu?e of your paper, and asked me to "retract." On the other hand, Mr. H. living in the west end of town, sv&nts me to "give them hell and wmething else;" Mr. P. said, "You jcored them, it was all right;" Mr Vf. said, "Give them some more;" Mr. L said, "You have the backing of the test people in town;" Mr. Mc. says le wants to see some more of the same stuff as we need it; Mr. G. Rants me to "pay no attention to Mr. smith." Many others expressed similar views to me since my former let. er appeared. I should like to accomodate all of Jiese people, but it is manifestly impossible. A man cannot go north ind south at the same time. I have lothing to "retract," and what Mr. Us "something else" is I do not enow, nor do I deal in "hell." It is leaven that I traffic in, heaven. I did not expect to engage in a news ; >aper controversy, but it seems to be oreed upon me. Let me tirst of all tssure Mr. Smith that I did not have tim iu mind when I wrote, and so did dm no "gTeat injustice." In fact, never think of Mr. Smith except vhen I see him, and that is not often. ! also wish to assure your readers hat there was nothing personal in .my ommunicatJon, as I told Mr. Smith >efore his letter appeared. Mr. Smith ias made a good superintendent, and s a good man when he is not hot tinier the collar but when he is hot he orgets everything that he learned in Junday School. Ask Mr. Eugene ong. I had in mind the water supem only, that was installed nine ears ago?in Mr. Smith's absence, I. ralieve, and in which I think the town | tot stung. Now let me take up Mr. Sixth's leter. He takes my letter to himself. )id he think I was "criticising" him? Veil, the poor soul! He identifies limstlf with the water system. I did ot know that HE was IT. He says! also criticised "the town council's j ackbone." That is not true. I never lentioned the town council. I said the town's backbone." The board of rade and the town council do things a this town. So do individuals. I m told that it was Mr. Caston and : Ir. Stevenson personally who got usj hp Sunday telephone service that we; iave. One man on his own initiative :ot us the early and the late train on \ he A. C. L. railroad. It nan's independent work that got the 'oast Line's freight depot up tmvn. nd the same man's work that kn>- J he union station in the v est <m-<; of own on the head and killed it. Put 1j tad in mind neither the town council inr the board of trade, nor any individual, least of all Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith says, "As I am re-ponsi de for the efficiency of the write" vat&m " QIr>>vfk occnmna rh jnniifei. >illty there must he something in tiv 'criticism" that hurts. "It is the rounded bird that flutters" and "it s the whipped dog that howls," and t is the galled jade that winces." rIowever, while his "responsibility" n the matter was not in my mind. 1 im glad he told us of that fact Mr' Smith quotes me as follow?: There was no pressure on the water ' bpn the alarm was given, and hy tb^ 1me that was put on the big barn an'1; mntents were completely de-troyod;" inri then Mr. Smith sivs this is "alt. <olutely incorrect." He also says Mr Thomas told him "that on this occasion the pressure was splendid."] fThere must have been occasions; ivhen it was not). I have no reason :o change my assertion. Mr. Gillespie, VIr. Seymour and others assure me lhat only a small stream came for : long time with which they could do nothing; and it was spoken around | :hat someone had to go and put on pressure. One who was at the Meiklejohn mill fire says the/ the stream lumped only about eight feet in front jf the notzle, and for a time nothtncj lould be done. When the pressure' lame the fire department did splendid work. Others tell me that at every fire there is low pressure at first; an<' that Mr. Smith goes down to the pump and starts it whenever there is a fire Any system that has to be watted up ind coaxed in that way is not efficien' I do not say this is Mr. Smith's fault* hut I do say that it is the fault of the system. Sumter, Camden, Greenwood; and other towns have standpipes and not faqtory tanks, and they need no j fire engine for ordinary fires. When; Sumter put in its water system thirt* years ago, the pressure from the water in the standpipe was so great that it threw a powerful stream over any building in town simply by attaching the hosp to the hydrant. For years they had no engine. They have them now because they have skyscrapers. Mr. Smith further says that "the system! has been in operation near!'* nine years and during all this time it has sucessfully met every demand that has been made upon it." This J deny.

Sprulll on the afternoon of the 17th. Vc The Regent, Mrs. C. L. Prince, presided. The subject of study was "Our County" and the Roll Call was an. Vi swered with names of county officials. The following were elected alter- 1 natea to the Regent, Mrs. Prince, to the National Convention in Washing- Ar on in April: Mrs. E. W. Duval 1, Mrs. J. A. Spruill, Mrs. W. F. Stevenson, Miss Lottie Prince, Miss Hattie God- Vfi frey and Mrs. E. H. Duvall. The Chapter endorsed the candidacy of Mrs. Wni. Reynolds of Winston. Hj Salem for the office of President- Sc General. All were much interested in Qu the fact that a southern woman is the strongest candidate for this die- Mi tinguisbed position. Mrs. L. A. Kerr gave a splendid Pr paper on "The Duties and Powers of Hj County Officials," and Mrs. E. W. Du- Se vail told in an interesting way, of our Senators and Representatives..

Let me rfc state facts that Mr. Smith does not gr know. If there were only ten gallons of water in the tank, how much force would that deliver at Mr. Hickson's corner, and how much fire would tt put out? We are assured that "the ra tank was two-thirds full and the M] pomp In operation." That may be true, but that does not affect my Dc contention. If the tank had been en. tirely full and the pump runhing it would have been all the same. We are also told that the pressure is 50 w' pounds to the square inch. That may also be true, and still mean nothing in this contention. "Every school boy Su knows," but does Mr. Smith know that there is a tremendous friction da and that the farther the hydrant is lb from the lank the less will be the pressure? One of the principles of re Hydraulics is that there is in a body of water under pressure both a theoretical and an actual flow. The actu- M al flow is only about two-thirds of the theoretical flow. The actual flow lessens in force the farther you go from ar the source of supply, so that property in the outskirts of town has little or de no protection from fire, while that in n' the center of town has all protection necessary. If one has to wake up, lei dress, and go a mile and put on arti- or ficial pressure before a fire can be se put out, there is little hope for ail sii outlying property in case of fire. But W1 But that is not Mr. Smith's fault. bj Mr. Smith calls my letter "prittle- ?-v prattle." (Phew, don't I feel funny!) When Mr. Smith looked for me the Friday after my letter appeared, he "prattled" about libel and was willing to fight and go to his funeral. He ripped, snorted, fumed and cussed in tu the presence of Mr. Eugene Long from X< the latter's home to the Cheraw Drug Co.' store when he spied me and call- fi< ed.

"LIVE AT IIOMEH Clemson College, Feb. 21.?In a recent Extension Circular of the A. and M. College of Texas making farm suggestions for 1?22 are found the following paragraphs which every farmer should read. The live-athome doctrine is the same as that preached over and over by the Extension Service, but it can not be preached too often for there are still many converts to be made. "The growing of sufficient food products for the needs of the family is one of the vital problems on the farm. This may be accomplished, to a Inrorc% oy!onf hv nlnntlncr fall win W .i?.0V VOVVMV, "... ter, and spring gardens large enough to produce vegetables for at least two meals each day during the growing season as well as a sufficient supply to meet the requirements for canning and drying for the yearly needs of the family. A home orchard should be grown that will furnish fruit either fresh, canned, dried, or preserved as a part of each meal. Thero should be at least fifty good hens to supply meat and eggs for family consumption; one or more dairy cows, capable of supplying the necessary amount of imilk and butter and at clast three hogs to furnish meat and lard for the year's supply. Where practicable wheat, oats and rye should be sown as cover crops, winter pasturage, feed for livestock and for market, v^hlle such feed crops as corn, grain, sorghum, and ha<j' should be grown for the home feeds, as well as ultimate marketing through livestock." "It is recognized lhat with the system of distribution and marketing now in vogue, we are producing a greater volume of certain crops than we are able to market at profitable prices. However, this does not necessarily moan that these products could not be grown more economically or that the quality can not be improved. It is doubtful whother we will ever receive a price for staple farm crops, such as corn and cotton, sufficiently high to insure a profit to the farmer, who, with his indi. vidual labor, can only cultivate from twenty to thirty acres, producing probably fifteen bushels of grain and about one-third of a bale of cotton to the acre; consequently we should direct our energies toward increased acre production rather than tilling or managing large acreages. That acre production can be substantially increased without (materially adding to the cost of planting and cultivating has been successfully demonstrated." Balanced Farming and Good Busines Demand Cotton Acreage Redaction. After setting forth these and other suggestions and recommendations the circular concludes with the following regarding cotton acreage reduction. 'This program is not a plea for V?/\ m/liiotinn in tllA QCTGclKG but if the farmer doubts the advisability of this program he has only to consult the recent break in the cotton prices, following the September 15 report of the Govern/nnent. The trade expected a report of 40 percent or below on the condition at the time. When the Government report showed 42.2 percent or 2.2 percent more than the trade expected, or an increase of 143,814 bales, within five minu(tes of trading the price broke 200 points, a loss of $10.00 per bale or a total loss of $65,370,000 on the cotton crop of the South. "Tt should be remembered that there was sufficient acreage planted to cotton in 1921 to have produced a 12,000,000 bale crop under normal conditions. If a 2.2 percent increase could effect the price $10.00 per bale .evidently, if a normal crop had been produced, we would have seen 1921 cotton sold at possibly less than half of what it is selling for today."
