tion. He then said that you could take
a low grade pile of tobacco and after
doing nothing to it except cleaning it '
of dirt, grading it the best this
pould be done, and tying it into
bunches, and for this labor alone the
price received would not amount to
adequate wages. He is just about right
about this. It does not pay to raise
a low grade of tobacco for any market.

34 cents, 19 cents and 13 cents, repectively

The two acres has produced some
very fine tobacco for Mr. Brown and

LOOK THIS UP
Onfe. thing that should be looked into
carefully, at all times by the retail
merchants association is the matter of
prices charged in Conway as compared
to the prices charged for the same
things in nearby towns. If it should be
found that the price charged in Conway
is higher than those charged in
those other towns, then look into the
matter of freight rates and ree if the
town is being treated unfairly by the
railroads. It might be that a ' <fmedy
could be found for correcting this if it

The work on the roa>* to Myrtle
Beach just beyond tne sieel bridge,

follows:
County Road Fund $1,000.00
State Highway Dept. $2,000.00
