DRESS UP!
If Twelve Cent Cotton Doesn't
Spell Prosperity What
Does It Spell ?
In clothe* we have a great
array of suits that would
make a pessimist look pros
perous, let alone the Boos
ters of Anderson and vicin
ity. Clothes may not make
the man, but we are all
judged to a great extent by
our appearance. Dress Up!
It costs but little, if you buy
your clothes here.
SUITS
$10.00 to $22. j0
Our $10.00, $12.50 and
$15.00 Suits are "Cracker
jacks." They are well worth
from $2.50 to $5.00 more
than we ??k for them.
The famous "REGAL"
Shoes at $4.00, $4.50 and
$5.00 are the best shoes a
man ever stuck his feet into.
Try them once, you'll stick
to 'em.

dresaea by Prof. J. N. Harper, di
rector agricultural department and
experiment station at Clemsou, and

was goi*',** to be no attendance at t ;e
meeting but finally about 30 inter
ested men went In tho court room
and Prof. Harper began making his
talk, which was on tin- things that
interested him most un his recent
trip to California.
"WSille I was out west," stated Mr.
Harper. "I stopped at my old home in
M?sniai-iipp.1, where tho boll weevil
was at Its best. I saw cotton as high
as my shoulders, which would not
average more than two bolls to tho
stall:. Tho people there seem not
yet to have caught on to the ways to
combat the boll weevil and their cot
ton crop was Just ruined. This is
Just by way of introduction to w'.iat
I want to Impress upon you all to
day and that Is that the boll weevil
is coming this way and in about five,
ycurs will bo here. Also that If we
want to combat it successfully, we
must begin now. I do not not want
to excite anyone unnecessarily, but
it is a clod plain fact that this aw
ful insect will he right with ua in a
very few years."
Prof. Harper' then began to dis
cuss tho ways by which the farmers
in South Carolina could begin to pre
pare themselves for tho advent ot tho
boll weevil. He stated that the insect
did not do so much damage after the
'bolls grew to the size of marbles and
that therefore the' f irst thing to do
would be to p'.aiit early varieties of
cotton. He stated-also that the far
mers must look for substitution crops,
and went on to give the names of sirs
oral that could be profitably grown
In this section. Ho stressed good
pasture3, plenty of live stock and in
creased acreage in' corn. By illus
trating with crops he saw growing .in
the west. Prof. Harper showed how
the farmers in ' ttffc section might
grow other things'besides coy on. He
closed his speech by stating Urat the
best way to compact the boll weevil
was to bave other ' systems of farm
ing to fall back upon and that the
time to begin learning other systems
was right now.
After Prof. Harper finished so
many questions were asked that it
kept him on the floor for about 15
minutes more.
Prof. Shields discussed , live stock
and the necessity In this section of
more pure blooded cows and l:ogs.
He stated that It whs much easier to
raise these than the others and that
there was always a market for them.
He Insisted upon the grading of herds,
and the use of pure bred bulls as a
means of improving the live stock.
He advocated the coop?ration of the
farmers in buying balls and stated
that several ought to go In together
and purchase one It It could not be
obtained otherwise. IK*, pointed out
the benefits or the live, stock mar
kets recently established in the state
and advised the people to begin to
feed their cattle now tor then mar
kets.

speech the election of officers was
