"In my Judgment,"" Mr. Palmer went on to say, "one of the weakest points in the work of the local county and district association's is the lack of publicity work. Few of our local Sunday School Association j workers appreciate the .importance j and necessity of publicity and fewer still know hpw to prepare articles in suitable form."

Smith left Austin.1 Texas, December 26th with chains at-! tached by padlocks and handcuffs, sealed to visit every capital in the U. S. in two years time but not for a wager or purse. He was defraying expenses thru the sale of a picture card showing him chained to his bicycle. He had visited Louisiana, Ala-' bama, Mississippe, Tennessee, Florida/ Georgia and South Carolina capitals and was on his way to Raleigh. He' said he was thirty days ahead of his \ schedule. Chcraw "Hi" Loses One to "Fletcher Memorial.'* , A big crowd of Cheraw fans saw; the "Hi" School team lose it's first j game this season Tuesday afternoon, Fletcher Memorial winning a hotly contested game three to two in the lftth inning. Bill Graham, Cheraw's i crack pitcher in 1020 wa- the direct cause of the Cheraw boys losing as V- nitched the full ten innings for Fletcher, allowed very few hits, did' not pass a man, and in the 6th with the score two and nothing in favor of Cheraw, with two men on for Fletcher and two out, Bill sent a slashing single to centre that tied the score. The game was full of excitement,, both sides having lots of opportuni ties to score and as the Bcore shows: was anybody's game all the way thru ' Bill Evans made the prettiest play; for Cheraw a long running catch of. a fly In left field that would have) brought the grand stand to its feet if there had been a grand stand.

A. L. Railroad, to hear Mr. Gurney i Lowe on his famous Neosho Plan of . Cooperative Retail Advertising and i Merchandising. At some date to be ;j set in the near future Mr. Lowe will F i come to Cheraw and explain how other merchants in town and cities over this country have reaped re wards from using his famous plan of i cooperation among merchants and t farmers. f The following letter tells what the . General Secretary of Pennsylvania - State Chamber of Commerce thinks of the plan: Pennsylvania State Chamber of Commerce, : Harrisburg, Pa., Feb. 20, 1921. "We believe that the Neosho Plan 1 of Co-Operative Retail Advertising Merchandising is good, and to that f end we have placed the 'j strength of our entire organization 1 back of it and hope to see it cover ; the State of Pennsylvania. The fact that the Golden Rule special sale days increase business for the mer! chant is only a small part of the good to be accomplished. The specials are ' sold, true enough, but general busi' neas also ia increased, and this ' means that the merchants must go into the markets and buy more goods. 1 The whole thing is a circle. Factories get more orders because the wholesalers are supplying more to the merchants to meet the increased demand of the consumer, and so it goes. "But this is not all. The farmer has much to give the city or town dweller. The farmer has time to think. He thinks. He analyzes the country'9 problems in the ouiet hours he works alone. He can clarify, by reason of his deep, direct, uninter' fered-with thinking, many a problem j that muddles the brain of the dweller { in city or town. A plan that brings country and town together and creates friendship and understanding is a good thing. We believe that, consis' tently worked out, the Neosho Plan fills the bill."?Georie E. Foss, Secretary Pennsylvania State Chamber of Commerce. AMERICAN LEGION OPENS CLUB ROOM "Five Oaks" Post No. 23 American Legion opened its club room in Duvall hall last Thursday evening with a smoker. Almost every member was present with some suggestion , for the improvement of the club and how the club can benefit the community. We feel sure that with so much enthusiasm shown by the entire membership of this Post, the club i will be a success, but there are many things yet thut we need before the club will be what it should. In our reading room we have many good' books and other good reading matter, contributed (mostly by members of the Legion, but we need more, so if any person who reads this has on j bund any books that he has finished, j and wishes to help build up our reading room by giving them, any of the ! ~ will lUUU?lIlfc men will ftiaui j icvbnc them: John Justice, M.

A Legionaire. i How a Safe Milk Supply is Insured for Small Cities. Milk inspection is of prime necessity. In most of the larger cities laboratories are maintained where bacteria counts and chemical analyses are frequently made on samples collected from retail delivery wagons, stores, and restaurants. But the small cities and towns that cannot afford the expense of a tester and laboratory iind it hard to give proper supervision to their milk supplies. mi ci * ? ? I lie uiuieu oiiiLea ucpm wucui ui Agriculture suggests that a practical way for such cities and towns to in. sure a safe milk supply is through the cooperation of two or more adjacent towns- in hiring a milk inspector and ! maintaining a laboratory. The cost ; of supervising such a plan may be I prorated among the different towns i on the basis of population without the ; expense being burdensome to any one j of them. Stnte and Federal authorii ties are always willing to cooperate in work of this sort. This plan of town cooperation in !! id ilk and dairy inspection has been - carried out in different parts of the country, probably the most conspicuous example being the group of towns in northern New Jersey known as "The Oranges." Iu these towns the plan has been in use for a number of ! years with results that have been very i satisfactory to all concerned.

FEEDING THE BABY CHICKS Clerason College, April 4.?"Feed ing the young stock is perhaps on of the tmost important factors ii poultry culture, for if we do no properly nourish the chicks we cai not expect to develop them into gooi flesh; nor can we expect to keep u] their health, vigor and vitality, i we underfeed, overfeed, feed unbal anced rations or feed anything bu absolutely clean feed," says N. P Mehrhof, Extension Poultry Special ist. Just as soon as the chicks ar moved to the brooder there shoul be some fine chick grit and fine oys ter shell on the hover floor. Thl is used as their first feed because i puts their gizzards and digests systems in condition to handle th hard, solid feed that they will ea from then on. The chicks should be fed sour sklr milk just as soon as thpy come in th brooder. This can be put in lttti vaccuum water fountains. Natura sour milk and buttermilk are goot and if they are not at hand semi solid buttermilk diluted at the rat of one part of milk to 6 or 7 parts o water. The lactic acid in the sou milk acts as an intestinal disinfec tan cleaning their digestive system and getting them in good workin order. It is also very palatable an appetizing. A very light feeding of rolled oat should be given at noon of the firs day, (just what they will eat up ii a few minutes); and in the afternooi a feeding of a chick-scratch ratior Perhaps it would help to feed on shingle or cardboard until they lerwhat and where the grain is. First Week In the Brooder. It is important to feed the chick often and in small quantities at i time. Feed the chicken-scratch ra tions four time s a day sparingly t make them clean up what they ar given each feeding and to make sur that they are hungry when the nex feeding comes around. Continue 1 feed the sour skim milk, but in addi tion have a supply of clean fres! water . From the fourth day on, pu wheat bran before the chicks ii open hoppers. Leave it before then a short time the first day, but ai soon as they have become accustom ed to it, leave it before them con stantly. Another important part of bab; chick feeding is the use of greet feeds. These can be supplied in thi form of lettuce leaves, sprouted oa tops, Only chopped vegetables, beeti etc. o Crosland- Lindsay,, On Wednesday afternoon, April .r>tb at 4:30 o'clock Miss Mary Louis* CVosland and Mr. Ross M. Lindsay o Bennettsville were married at th< home of the bride's parents on Mail street "in Bennettsville. Miss Crosland is the popular an< attractive daughter of Mr. and Mrs C. B.

A timely tip to poultry raisers: The arly chick catches the biggest profit. / 1 i?,j The best time to make permanent improvements on the farm is when times are hard.

One of the best ways to sell corn is "on the hoof." Ship your corn by the hog route. J With only 302 South Carolina farmers enrolled in the "Better Sires ?Better Stock" campaign last year, it is apparent that most of our farmers think that "scrubs will do." They will do?harm.
