FARMERS TRADE FARMING LANDS Two of (he farmers of upper Bucks township have recently about completed a deal in the exchange of farm lands which will be to their mutual advantage. The farmers are L. B. Register and R. B. Glasgow. Coming to the Glasgow family and the Powell family under provisions of the will of the late Francis M. Johivson were two parcels of land, one of which was known as the home place of F. M. Johnson, and the other as the Ervin Johnson place. These did not lie near the present residence and form of R. B. Glasgow which he has brought up to a high state of improvement and cultivation, especially within the last ten years. L. B. Register owned land which adjoined the i i i n n present noiamgs ot it. d. uiasguw, with a good house and a nice farm cleared thereon. The farmers pot together and agreed to exchange these lands, Register swapping the tract of about one hundred acres owned by him near the Glasgow place for the two parcels of the F. M. Johnsoiv land, coming to the Glasgow family under the will of F. M. Johnson. Before the trade could he made authority had to he obtained from the Court of Common Pleas of this county. A suit was brought by Mrs. Glasgow and some of her children against the infant heirs-at-law and the heirs of the late W. C. Powell, praying for confirmation of a parol partition that the parties had made about two years aco of the old home place of F. M. Johnson, and asking for authority of an order of the court to allow these lands with the other tract known as F.rvin Johnson land for the tract owned by L. B. Register. The papers were served in the case and the cause came on to be heard before Judge S. W. G. Shipp, in Floreiice, after testimony in supnort of the allegations of the complaint had been taken before W. L.. Brvant, Clerk of the Court as Special Master in the cause. Judge Shipp. recently granted the prayer of the complaint, and the d^al is now being consummated by the making of deeds in accordance with the decree of Judge Shipp. All of this land is about the best upland that is to he found in that section of Horry County. It appears that both parties to the deal are pood farmers. Of course Register is a much younger man than Glasgow, hut he has in him the makings of a very successful farmer and substantial citizen of Horry County?the kind that tends to the upbuilding and progress of the rural communities of the section. Recently both parties went into possession of the lands, feeling that the case would q;o through and nothing hold up the deal which tbev had made. Alre.adv preparations are being made for planting the lands. NEGRO LVNCHEI) FOR KILLING News of a lynching at Fair Bluff, N. C., becran to filter through to this place the first of this week.

C., was turned over to the Co-operative association last season, but was not operated by them for the reason that enough tobacco did not go to Loris to require the use of more than the brick warehouse, also belonging to the association. The price at which the Farmers' Warehouse was sold to the association was $22,000.00, which shows that warehouse property is regarded as valuable. This will .almost bring the company out of debt that formerly owned the building. The deed for the warehouse to the association has not yet been passed, but the association is under contract to buy it and the deal will be consummated before very long, it is thought. o BRIDGE PARTY On last Thursday aftemooq.

Allen, county superintendent of education, issued a call fo all of the teachers, trustees and patrons of the schools of this county to observe Friday, February 2nd, as clean-up day. Cards have been printed this week and sent out to the different schools showing1 the method of rating them accordingly as they may do bad or ill in the way of cleaning up. The perfection point is put at one hundred, while the total is distributed among yards, water supply, floors, walls and ceiling, windows, stove desks, blackboards, and materials Clean yards will count, 20, clear floors, walls and ceilings will count another 20; a clean stove will counl for Ifi points, and the other items foi smaller percentages as they appear or the card. The cards are intended to be 'fillec up immediately after clean-up day then hunj? up in the school rooms tc show tho results of the efforts mad< to clean up the school room and it: surroundings. , Tt is to be hoped that each am ; every school will enter fully into tin spirit of this movement. No bette: , training can be given the younj I minds than to teach them the advan r tages of having things clean and ii [. order. This movement is one of th< I best that lias been started in somi f time. In order to get the most goo< I out of it all of the teachers, the trus tees, the pupils, and the patrons mus get behind it and move it along. !SUTHERLAND STORE FAIL? 1 p The store of the Southland Furni ture Company has been closed for th past several days, and there is a nc n tice of sale sticking up on the doo j which says in substance that the en tire stock of furniture and things wi be sold in front of the court hous s under a chattel mortgage given to th Peoples National Bank, and recorde in the office of the Clerk of the Cout of Common Pleas in Book B-2 at pag 431. It also appears that an offer c compromise of twenty-five cents o the dollar has been offered to th e general creditors of the store, accord ing to letters received by a number c :t these creditors within the past weeV - ? < 1 i a e The store has been conducted oy ^ n M. Sutherland for the past six c r seven years and has done a more c less large business in the sales of fui d niture and furnishings to the peopl 11 of the town and in the country. Whil >f the business has been run under tY ?- name of Sutherland Furniture Con pany, it appears that Mr. A. ^ le Sutherland is the sole owner ar ir proprietor of the store. o AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT Last Tuesday evening, two Foi cars, one driven by Dr. V.

J THE HORRY HERALD, 00* MULLINS WILL MAKE SPREAD Growing Tobacco Trade Calls For Big New Independent MAKES SEVENTH HOUSE Mullins Enterprise is Enthused a. mL * * u ? - v/ver xhis itemed ware house Space (Mullins Enterprise.) Mullins is to have another tobacco warehouse. This one will make seven for our town?five independents and two co-operative receiving stations. The Enterprise heard the news several days ago, but was not permitted to use it until today. The promoters of the new house are William Henry Daniel and O'Dell Lewis, both practical men, with ample capital to carry the enterprise to a successful finish. The location will be on the Seaboard track, just opposite the Yarboro warehouse, on the lot originally bought for the Mullins Hospital, on South Park street, and an ideal location it is, too. The Seaboard road runs through the property and this will give a decided advantage in shipping the weed, as there will be no drftyage to look after. In speaking to the promoters about their project, Mr. Daniel stated that he felt that there was need of another tobacco warehouse in Mullins, and that he was willing to back up his judgment by putting his money in a good house. Mullins is a tobacco town and has always been such and it is up to the people of the community to keep up the reputation as such. It was Mr. Daniel's father, the late W. H. Daniel, who first built .a tobacco warehouse in Mullins and thereby put the town on the map. The senior Mr. D.nniel spent his money freely ir advertising the Mullins market and succeeded in making the Mullins mar c TAX RETURNS FOR 1923 The County Auditor of Horry County will attend the following places al times specified for the purpose ol taking returns for the fiscal yeai 1923, of all personal property, alsc all transfers of Roal Estate whic? have been made since last return.

C, FEB 1, 1923 ket one of the largest and strongest in the state, and the son, who has , faithfully carried out the business policy of his father since he came into the management of his father's business, feels it a duty to continue to foster those business principles that his father spent a life time in building up. The new warehouse will be started in early spring. It will be built of brick and be made up-to-date in every respect. It will be larger than any house in the town, in fact, the largest east of the Big Pee Dee river. Citizens generally are delighted with the move for another warehouse. It will help strengthen the Mullins market and cause us to have extra buyers here that we could not get otherwise, kvery citizen realizes that there will continue to be at least two tobacco markets in the state?one on the east and one on tho west side of the Big Pee Dee, and it is up to Mullins to make ours the bi:jj;est one of the two. With such men as William Henry Daniel and O'Dell Lewis back of the new house, the Mullins market will receive a great stimulus and no doubt our town will retain her prestige as the Danville of Mie Carob'nas, and the tobacco center of the state. We are a tobacco town, and as such . keep the tobacco interests before the people. The Enterprise has done its part along this line for 25 years, and we will continue to put forth our best interests. 1 4TI y? g BKr ft I WRiGLEYS /fSK and give your , siomach a lilt.
