THE WAREHOUSE. The Kxrrcixe ?!' UiioiI Common Sense in nnkine Additions. On tbe first of September It Ik estimated that a new season in tbe cotton business bus ommenced. Already tbe ginneries in town are daily receiving a few bales, wbicb are soon put In marketable condition, when buyers readily pay tbe cash for It at prices above ten cetats. As our readers know, tbe farmers have bought tbe warehouse at Abbeville which last year stored over three thousand bales at one time. Capt. Lyon, the maupger, turned the property over to the uew owuers last week and Mr. Magill Is uow In charge. Messrs. J. Allen Smith, F. E. Harrison, and R. E. Coz are on a building committee lor '.be addition wblch was ordered to be made. M>. Cox, on bebalf of tbe committee, has taketi personal supervision of tbe work, and is prcceedlng nicely with the laylDg of the brick in tbe wall wblch is now about seven or eight feet high. The impression having gone out among at least some of our people that a majority of the bricklayers had formed a combination to de mind 82 50 a day for their services, Mr. Oox baa undertaken to do the work witb cheaper or Inexperienced bands. Two or three brick, layers with more or less experience were employed to raise the] corners and to run the outside courses. The rest of the work 1b being done.by common laborers. At present the work seem8 to be as good as any one could desire. The cost up to this time Is only about one dollar a thoupand or about half the usual cost. However much we may be mistaken, this It one view to take of the matter: One great advantage of hiring inexperienced men to do ordinary work Is that their pay Is lower and the amount of work which such men do is far in exoess of the work of the more skilled and more experienced workmen. A man at a dollar a day will put in all his tlmeat work. When be gets two dollars a day be ne?ds to , , tinker, sight and measure, and he wllldo,sa> about two thirds as much woik as tbe orginaiy laborer. WheD be gets tbree dollars be tblnks more aboat wbat be knows tbaD about the amount ol work be does, and be sometimes does very little work. WheD the price Is four dollars a day be does Dot expect to do aDy work at all. Of oourse this Is said Jocularly without Intending to be specifically correct and having so sort of desire to be offensive, but we leave tit lor otbers to say if in this remark there Is not at least a show of circumstances bordering on actual conditions. If, therefore, a man intends to look aftei thfe.construction of his own work he can at well do It with cheap labor as well as li can be done by a master mecnanlcat a high price for himself to overlook the work wbiH employing higher priced or more experienced mechanics.' 111 laying brick, for Instance, in a majority of instances a man at S1.25 a day lays aft many or more brick than a man at ?2.50 will lay. But of course there is a class of work to do which might better be done by high priced men. One advantage Id building a brick bouse Is, tbat It under Fome conditions It wlli ooat no more than a good wocden building It will last almost forever, with very little repairs, and when torn down tbe brick are at good m ever to use elsewhere. Mot no witb a ' wooden bouse. Another advantage In btjildlng wllh brick Is, that tbe lot la noi coverered wltb expensive lumber that bat been destroyed by tbe'exercise of bad Judg ment on tbe part of tbe mechanic. A mechanic may need a three foot piece 01 timber. If a four foot piece and a twentj > foot piece be lying around, is It not true tbat In a majority of cases the three foot piece will be cut from tbe long piece Instead of from the short piece? Is It not true tbat a man who has accumulated something foi himself will be more economical In the ust of material than tbe man who has no Interest In It? In tbe construction ol a brick bouse tbe opportunities for waste of brick are not (> many. Of course there are many good and careful mechanics who waste nothing needlessly. But it must be admitted that ibere la ofter waste along the lines which we bave bug gested. But we bave strayed off from what we in tended to write alout. Mr. Cox is doiDg bis work well and cheaply. Knowing bow tbe work should be done be will employ sncb men as will ao bis bidding. He will act at wlieiy in hiring carpenters ?6 be has done In hiring brick layers. He knows what he grants .done, and he wants men to carry out bis inductions. Be thinks a low priced man wi'l do hlB biddings without ."talking back" to him. A high priced man knows more, and tbe trouble with him is, bis em ployer Is a sort of self-conceited man wbo lakes learning hard. Sometimes It 1b almost Impossible lor mechanics to get new ideas to filter Into the brain of inexperienced men wbo may undertake to build tbelr own bouse. It is natural for the man holding the purse strings to be a little conceited. We know how it Is ourseif. We bave done a Utile at employing menito work lor us. A good mecbahlc knows that we know nothing, and he ol course "talks back," but we can fool an Inexperienced band, and make him think that we know It all. He will strive to do tbe work as we direct. A good mechanic knows better, and if there lb anything that a good mechanlodisllkes to do, It Is to perform bis work in an Improper way. On this line we speak advisedly. We were once a Journeyman printer, and afterward we bad a Job printing office. It required twenty years for us to quit "talking back" to our customers, and telling tbem that they were mistaken as to what they wanted. We have had tbe conceit taken out of us so often iuai in jaier years our only desire was to Had oat what was wanted. Even If a man was not as good a printer, If he knew what be what he wanted, our rule has be en to do It that way. Tbe farmers and the committee have acted wisely Inputting Mr. Cox In charge of the practical work 01 constructing tbe additional room to the warehouse. He will do good work at tne least possible cost. Like Finding Money. Findidg health is like finding money ?so think those who are sicfe. When you have a cough, cold, sore throat, or chest irritation, better act promptly like W. C. Barber, of Sandy Level, Va.
