SHARE FARMER
HASTOGRADE
In some sections of Horry share '
croppers are raising the question of
whose duty is it to grade and tie the
tobacco crop. In some instances the
sharecropper has refused to grade and
tie the leaves claiming that it is the
duty of the landlord to have this done
at his own expense, while in other
cases the sharecropper has tried to set
iip the claim that the landlord must
- grade and tie his portion of the crop.
"Under the law the sharecropper has
to do all of the work and labor about
the entire crop. This is the case in every
instance where the contract has
been mjulp in IKIIuI ironarol iir.1t.
whereby the sharecropper undertakes
lo do all of the work and the landlord
only agrees to furnish the land
and perhaps other thing's also such as
the fertilisers, teams or tools to work
w:*1> and t^e <*erwls fnr nl^nting.
. It is evident that the tobacco must
graded and tied before there can
"be any just division of it between the
landlord and the farmer. The time hns
past when any reasonable man would
think that you can take a pile of loose
tobacco leaves and divide it correctly
in that state. After it has been graded
and tied into handfuls it is an easy
matter to separate the landlord's half
from the share of the man who pro'
duced tlie weed.
if the sharecropper refuses to perform
the labor that he has undertaken
t*> do. such as the grading and tying
of tobacco, when the crop is in
danger of being lost or damaged by
reason of his neglect then the landlord
is entitled to undertake the work
himself and take the cost of doing this
work out of the share of the tenant.
Under the law in South Carolina if
rto exceptions as to any portion of the
work is made when the contract is entered
into, then it is without doubt the
duty of the sharecropper to do all of
the work of raising and gathering the
crops he has produced and placing
them in such condition as will enable
himself and the landlord to dispose of
t)** money crops on the markets. This
grading and tyinir is a part of the labor
which the sharecropper underto
rln when he enters into the
contract to f-irn1 tl^ ulace.
In regard to whether or not a sharecrop
?iu^t ho foM undo'' the cooperative
n'an, when the landlord is in the
a*?jpo;,it?on and the sharecropper is
not. i* undoubtedly settled by the
law of this state that the sharecropper
is entitled to sell his part either way
he chooses, while the landlord must
sell his share under the cooperative
plan under one of the association
warehouses.

Volume 1, Civil Code, Section 3810, t
very emphatically and explicitly seta
forth the rights of a tenant when la- *
bor is performed for a share of the
crop or crops produced in the State of 1
JSouth Carolina, which reads as fpl- '
lows:* "Whenever labor is performed
under contract on shares of crop or
crops, such crop or crops shall be '
gathered and divided off before it is
removed from the place where it was .
planted, harvested, or gathered. Such
division is to be made by a disinter- '
ested parson, when desired by either 1
.party to the contract. And such disinterested
party shall be chosen by and *
with the consent of the contracting 1
par*ie:; whenever the parties fail to \
;igree upon any disinterested party, or 1
if complaint is made that the division .
has been unfairly made, within ten
days after such division, it shall be
the duty of the magistrate residing
nearest the place where such crop or
crops are planted, harvested, or gathered,
to cause, under his immediate
supervision, such equitable division as 1
.may be stipulated in the contract, j
disinterested party or magistrate <
shall receive reasonable compensation i
for such service, to be paid by both of i
the contracting parties, according to 1
their several interests, except in cases i
I of an attempt to wilfullv defraud the <
other by one of the contracting parties;
and then such compensation shall
bo paid bv the parties so attempting i
to defraud tho other. When sucn divi- '
sion has been made, eacli party shall
he free to dispose of their several portions
as to him or her or them may i
see fitting: Provided, That if either 1
r ?rtv he in debt to the other for any
obligation incurred under contract, the ,
amount of said indebtedness may be i
then and there settled and paid by ,
such portion of the share or shares of _
the party so indebted as may be
agreed upon by the parties themselves
or set apart by the magistrate, or any <
l-yrty chosen to divide said crop or
crops."

STRANGE SQUASH
A curious squash has been sent to
the Horry Herald office by Gabriel j
Kdwards of Avnor. No explanation
was sent with the squash as to whether
it was raised on Mr. Edwards' land
or was contributed from that of a
t neighbor, but we assume that it was
grown on Mr. Edwards' own premises. 1
It would be hard to describe it ac- i
curately. One has to see it in order to i
understand wnat a curiosity re is. rne i
squash is decorated with very artistic
looking tracings resembling1 the fancy <
work that is often done by the ladies '
in making pillow slips, taMe linen, (
doilies an center pieces, 'i ner> there i.?? 1
the additional curious fact that down i
on the side of the vegetable these i
tracings make a very plain writing of

Around the neck of the vegetable ,
hese tracings are arranged in artistic ;
array so as to appear as if placed
round there by the hand of a person
A'ith a stylus and in an effort to make
;his %s a decoration.
lJid these tracings come there of
.heir own accord as a freak of nature
*r did some person with nothing else
:o do, wheu the squash was young
:race these drawings including the ini.ials
on the soft surface of the young
vegetable ? These are questions that
cannot be answered, for so far as

on the surface of the squash as
t grew.
HOW MENTHROW
AWAY BIG KALE
Business men, yes, even the business
men of Conway, will spend their
arood money almost any time for some
:lass or means of advertising that can
not bring adequate returns; and will
neglect, at the same time, the opportunity
which they have to carry their
message to the people through the
columns of a modern county paper.
Of what value is a picture on the
front of a calendar, a short space on
the cover of a menu, even road signs
without number, some, novelty that is

name of the donor on the side flap,
the hack page of a cook hook, the back
pages of a school announcement or
catalogue, or thousands of circulars
tkat are never even looked at in nine
pases out of ten? These may be of
some value, we would not deny that
they are when properly handled and
used; but as compared to the cost of
doing it, what are any of these ways
worth when compared to the cheapness
and effectiveness of advertising
in the newspaper.
Take the Horry Herald as an example.
Go to the office of publication
and see the bona fide list of subscribers
to which it is sent every week in
the year. Follow a copy of it that is
sent into one of the rural districts of
the county and sec what becomes of
it. In one community you will find that
the one copy going there is read, first
by the family in which it goes consisting
of the husband, the wife, two sons
ruin three daughters, and that it is
borrowed and read by three different
families in the same community. Some
r>f the neighbors come over every
week to see what is in the paper and
lifferont members of t.ho family look
the paper over and read the local
news which never fails to be of interest
to them. Tn other communities you
will f"en more readers of one single

it is pat together again and ofcrefUfly

again* Some member, or members of
'ho family look it over several times
on the next day. The paper is still
there in the home on Saturday night
and on Sunday and what of it did not
get read before, will be finished up on
Sunday. It is nothing unusual for the
paper to be kept over Sunday and used
as reference for no telling how long
in order to keep up with some local
matter that is going on nnder certam
dates or schedule.

in the newspaper is the lowest
coat of all. You can realize the high
cost of placing the advertisement in a
small space on the back of a menu
card or booklet by stopping and casting
up the amount and thinking of the
relative small number of people that
will ever have a chance of seeing it.
When circulars are printed to be mailed.
the postage must be taken into account
as well as the time or clerical
help that will be required to mail them
out. The road signs may be up on the
trees today artd pulled down or torn
to pieces tomorrow. While this is the
case with these half-handed ways of
trying to gain publicity, the work of
the newspaper is going on forever and
it will bring results in a continous way
and it may be counted upon. There is
no trouble for the advertiser except
getting up the copy. All the rest of
the work and worrv sits upon the
snouniers or ino printer ami publisher.
Now remember o?>e more fact in
connection with th;s pnd then we are
through. The community must have a
trood newspaper. This is a fact no citiy?n
will dispute with you about. In
order to have a good newspaper, one
worthv of the name, the community
must be willing to support one. It is
the usual rule that when communities
yofuse to support their newspaper, it
goes down to nothing and is not regarded
as of any value before long.
The community suffers worse than the
newspaper man from circumstances
like these. i

BUY ARSENATE CAREFULLY
^ Ctemson Colletre.?The South Carolina
State Crop Pest Commission has ,
'recently encountered a shipment of
calcium arsenate in which the water
content is entirely too high, making it :
unfit for cotton dusting, says Prof. A.
F. Conradi, entomologist for the commission,
in a statement today caution- .
? 4 * * -
larmers tnat the caTcfum arsenate ,
,now on the market is not all of uni
form grade and that particular care 1
should he used in purchasing calcium j
arsenate. i
No machine, explains Prof. Conradi, ,
js able properly to distribute calcium <
arsenate which is too high in water
content, and farmers using such ma- j
.terial will probably not get good re- <
suits and will come to the conclusion
.that cotton dusting is not effective |
against the weevil. ]
T> C /I ? * ' * - '
. i-rui. v/onrani suggestS tnat in pur- i
chasing calcium arsenate the farmer j
should open at least some of the 1
drums and make a personal examina- |
tion to be sure that the material is dry t
and finely divided and will not pack j
when compressed in the hand. It

fcnown socially.
Stuch a person is- Annie Stewart,
who resides in Boston and is possessed
of the respect and/ confidence of her
associates, and is willing for anyone
to call on her to v?rify the following
signed testimonial
"I have suffered! with stomach trouble
for the past seven years. It took
the form of indi*$estion and dyspepsia.
I had dizzv ?nrl ? *
j ,.runu iiwurtciies, ana
after I ate a litotle food it would ferment
and causo gas to< form in my
stomach. I hadl pains all over my body
and was chroawcally constipated. My
liver was torpid and 1 felt miserable. I'
had doctored and had been in the hos-:s
pital, but r?eeived no permanent ^
lief. I was so nervous and restless that;
at night P could scarcely sleep. The*
gas, pressing under my heart, caused
palpitation, and when I arose in the
morning 1 was just as tired as when t
retired. About two weeks ago I begat*
to tak? Prunitone, and I can truthfully
state that it has done wonders iji my
case. I am feeling like a new woman.
1 ~ "
una can eat any kind of food* I" sleep
the nijrht through and I have rto more
aches or pains; in fact, it ha? cured
me, and I am recommending it to all
of my friends, as it has been a Godsend
to me."

There are numerous symptoms of
.his trouble that Prunitone can relieve.
fn fact, any of the following may denote
affections of the stomach: Indigestion,
dyspepsia, belching of wind,
