The Pageland Journal Published on Tuesday Morning C. M. Tucker and H. L. Johnson Publishers. Subscription Price - - $1.00 Entered as second class mail matter at the post office at Page land, S. C., under the Postal Act of March 3, 1879. March 3,1914 Change in Day of Issue. For a number of reasons we think it best to change the day of issue, and therefore the Journal will be printed on Wednesday morning after this week and your paper will be .just one day later in getting to you. We shall go to press about 7:30 o'clock on Wednesday mornings and our forms will be open for news until Tuesday night. -This will give uui ^uncapuiiucuis a uener chance to give the news while it is news and will, we believe, be better for all concerned. Wednesday instead of Tuesday. v We hope the long-snouted hyenas who wished for a heavy fall of snow got their fill. ^ Speaking of the weather, we would say it was decidedly bree/ev. ? m ? -This is the month when some people plant com, but?pshaw, get that fire to going and let's believe this is January. m We would like to see Archibald Johnson, of Charity apd Children, take a shot at South farmei ^^Hflfeaders, some of them, toilec ^^^'and sweated in the hot sun, anc by the hardest succeeded in de S-+ 1 vyv < > 4 /?11 4-V* /% aiiuyiug uuuui <111 uic ^iadd uia came up on their farms. Thii enabied them to make a fev bales of hard earned cotton This they sold at a fair pric< and paid the heavy fertilizer bill the grocery and dry goods bill and some of them paid th preacher, the doctor and th newspaper man, and by tha time the monev was gone, if nc before. Now, they are buyin much fertilizer, and alas, som are buying hay, oats and torn ? this early date, all in the hoj of making enough cotton to pa the hills next fall. C dton is not the only mont crop that can he grown in-tli section, and the sooner this cf he realized hy our farmers tl better it will hi'. A man's har crih and smokehouse must 1 on his own farm and not in tl North and West. Do not plant all your farm cotton. The two branches of the leg lature adjourned Saturday aft< noon until tonight. The serif made an effort to s&t Wednesd as tho Hnv or iinal ndiournmo but the blouse objected, and il not certain just when adjon ment will come. s Thev are hum-hawing o1 \ the 2 cent passenger rate m< ' than any other one bill, and i doubtful whether the bill will allowed to come to a vote fore adjournment. When they are throi amending, substituting and toing we hope to get a synoi of the things tliev did that they didn't undo, hut for the consolation of those who haven't had a chance "to keep track of them during these forty days and more, we'll say that there is not , much to fear and very little to , hope for. There is the ghost of a chance that the tax levy will be lowered about one mill, ! which of course means that vou'U probably have to pay a ie\v cents or a icw aonars less ^ tax next year. ( We hope to be able to tell you ' by next week what they have done for or against you. ] When all.the folks learn that ] a cold is just as "catching" as mumps or measles, and that | colds lay the foundation for ] many of the more dangerous t diseases, such as pneumonia, { consumption etc., they* will be j much more careful when they j have colds. When they all < c 'earn that one child can cause a t whole school to take cold, that one person will in a short time exhale enough germs to give every person in the room a cold, then we will begin to shun the fellow who comes in coughing and wheezing, not because we dislike him but because we don't want his disease, for a cold is as much a disease as small pox or measles. Persons suffering with cold should not go to places where they will come in contact with the public, and every child who has a cold should he kept at home until well, livery cold is oneninr* tho Hnnr fr?r mr\ro I . i rrn iuwi c ] deadly diseases to walk in, and , everv effort should be put forth to have just as few colds as j possible.
