Open Political Seaton.
We have open and close*! seasons
for hunting in this state, but next
summer will be the open season with
politicians to hunt the votes of the
dear people. We have a little curio
sity to know just what sort of a poli
tician the voters will select to fill this
or that office. We have no choice
in the matter, but we will feel a sense
of pride or shame in the candidate
selected by the people. About one
eighth of the voters in Barnwell
county make their marks on the club
rolls instead of singing their names.

are indications that the race t|ues^ion
might be used as sure bait for voteL
.Wither race has a monopoly of those
who can do more/ harm /than good
not only to themselves but others.
The time will come perhaps when we
will adjust ourselves to industrial
conditions that will not depend'on
nogrp labor. .Now we are absolutely
dependent on it in our industrial and
economic life. Let ,us recognize the
fact that the political agitator who
would climb into office by an appeal
to-race prejudice thereby strikes a
blow at every business man, farmer,
and home that is more or less de
pendent on negro labor. If acute
problems should at some future date
arise between the races, don’t cross
the ^bridge till wve get to the river.
When we get there we are absolutely
sure of the best efforts of both races.
We have been rudely shaken otit
of the easy going ruts of life. The
candidates, we need for office are
those who recognize that' the farm
ers and business men face conditions
of the boll weevil, of unsettled labor,
of high cost of living, and of low
'market prices for what we sell. So
far as legislation can accomplish this
nve need laws that will put us on a
good basis for business.*

would have the people believe that
only by electing them to office can
the county be saved from going to

that depends on human hands must
carry some imperfection with it.
We do not believe that we need this
sort of a candidtae just now when
we are confronted with the problems
which have arisen from the war.

.fof it. Then he showed that while it
was possible, to raised crop o,f cettoij
if the seasons were all right, yet'it
was hardly probable on account of the
risks. He advised the farmer to plant
his cotton acreage in peanuts and
furnished the ssed. He told the
farmer to bring the peanuts to him
as he could market them to a better
advantage. The result at the end of
the year was that the farmer by his
crop of peanuts paid his debts and
bought him another automobile.
What we need in Barnwell County
is that we should have similar far
seeing business men. As the matter
stands now County Agent Boylston
reports that he has bought eight car
loads of peanut seed for Barnwell
County. How far would eight car
loads of cotton seed supply the plant
ing needs of the county? We will all
stand or fall together.,*
PERSISTED MEDICAL SCIENTIST
ALLENDALE NURSERY OPJENED.
Tfr. F W. Cross, the. well-known
nursery man, has recently opened tap
in Allendale' with - a tomplete stock
of fjruit, shade and nut trees, of
which he is exhibiting some fine spe
cimens for sale on Railroad Avenue
adjoining the Advance office. Keep
ing the young trees in stock Will en

eyes what they axe buying and not
trust in Providence and a mail -order
catalogue when choosing trees fqr
planting. Mr. Cross has been in the
nursery business for a "numbr of
years and knows how to pick 'em so
they’ll live and grow, not petey out
five minutes after they’re in the
ground like those'advertised as guar

The Siamese Twins.
Many years ago our fathers were
greatly interested by the Siamese
twins. These two people were joined
together in such* a way that with two
bodies- they had only one life-.—They
were ’ born together, live*! together,
and died within a few hours of each
A S
erious Situation.
The coal strike which has been in
operation since Nov. lst.7 is a serious
syrhptom of the condition in w-hich
we find ourselves. It is admitted that
the ranks of the coal miners are ov
ercrowded. It is also admitted that
the owners of the mines have made
from 15 to 2,000 per cent, profit in
the last two years. While they are
apparently ready to tear each others
throats, yet both are perfectly wil
ling to let the public pay the added
cost of increased wages to the min

farmer on the one hand, and on the
»ther the nierchaut, banker, and gen
eral supply man whose chief busi
ness is to supply the small farmer.
It is the small farmer who keeps go
ing the other classes. If the small
farmer is hurt by the boll weevil the
other business men will suffer from
it.'
. The last issue of the Hampton
County Guardian contains a story
that might well be laid to heart by
our best business people. The arti
cle is too great for our space. Mr.
.1. A. Wyman tells of a case dear En
terprise, Ala., of an average farmer
whose cotton crop kept iwm alwayson
the shady side of debt to his banker,
t
The long suffering public is tired
of increasing price#. As long as the
their part. That i- a finished story
now. The great fact that confronts
us is that (he 600,000 miners can
close up schools, offices, stores, places
of business. They can subject mil
lions of the poorest of the people to
the ogors of approaching winter, with
no coal for fuel, or cooking. .They
cat) curtail train* ami paralyze the
industrial life of the whole nation.
The situation is further shown by the
fact that the law is helplftVs to .help.
In spite of. a Federal injunction
against the strike there is no coal,-
and the miners are stiH out.
The trouble lies in the laws which
congress has made* at the command
of organized labor.*. If we haven’t the
laws to protect the helpless masses
Endorsement of the Christmas
Seal Campaign with wishes for its
success has been made by President
Wilson. The 'hrftddent expressed in

10th under the auspices of the Na

its thousand allied organizations, the

DISCOVERY WHICH MAY PROVE TO BE THE SOLUTION OF A
■ PROBLEM UPON WHICH 1^EPICAL SCIENCE HAS
‘ WORKED FOR YEARS. /
It would seem that medical science
has scored a new . victory and made
. <*«■•
a new and most remarkable discovery
*>ne that-will have a far reaching in
fluence on the physical betterment of
present and future generations, and
one which bids fair to quickly estab-
j- .....
laxative with an easily assifnillated_
iron tonic jihd so produce the- great
est reconstructive tonic known to
medical science. ,• , ■
If reports'of this remarkable med
ical discovery are' true, and they,
seem to be well sustained by hun*
most remarkable step toward the alle
viation of human suffering.
Medical scientists have long known
that the greatest single human fabric
rebuilder is iron—the most powerful
of all tonic agents-for the blood and
the greatest^ known restorer of phy
sical vitality.
But, efficacious as iron is known to
be, not every sufferer has hitherto
been able to avail themselves of its
potent healing and building power be
cause iron tends to induce constipa
tion.
It has been true that iron was
not assimilable to alj stomachs and
for that reason many have suffered
for years because their stomachs
could not assimilate the very reme
dial agent that their System would
so quickly respond to.
But science eventually wins and a
method has at -last been discovered
to combine an energetic vegetable i what Ferrolax is doing for others
stored by the new- discovery, it
would seem that many sufferers
could flow turn to the new medicine
with great hope.
The new medicine has been named
FERROLAX and the stories, already
current, of its remarkable healing
and restorative power in cases of
blood and stomach diseases are caus
ing thousands to inquire where this
new and wonderful reconstructive
tonic may be obtained.
Ferrolax is sold by
