A glance at the daily load of
mail delivered by the rural carri- 1
ers will startle the man who has 1
not noticed how large a precent I
of the mail is whiskey ciiculars, ?
cheap story papers and trashy *
farm journals. The per cent. c
of worth-while mail is un- t
believeablv small. 1
The government spends thous- s
ands and thousands of dollars T.
preparing and printing bulletins, '
pamphlets, etc., for the farmers
but about nine farmers out of ?
ten know nothing about it, and '
the money is wasted, to a large
extent, because none is spent in s|
advertising the fact that these s
helps maybe had for the asking. I1
If one third of the cost were "
spent in telling the farmers about
what may be had more good
would be accomplished.
_ P
Those who may feel that the ^
eradication of ticks in the county jj
is an unimportant matter should ^
remember that beef cattle bring
higher prices when they come ^
from sections free from ticks, ^
and that cattle raising will in a vx
few years be found very profit- c,
able in this section. As proof of
this, consider the prices received
by Mr. R. J. Little for about sixty n
head of steers he fattened on his
farm near Cheraw during the
past winter some of which
weighed as high as sixteen hun
dred pounds. These were sold
k right on his farm and collected
^ t for at 6 3-4 and7 cents per pound
gross. ' 1 hmk of selling one steer
for one hundred arid twelve dcil^ d
lars, after having raised nearly q
enough manure to pay for his .
feed.
The man who thinks cotton is ^
the only thing there is any
money in should visit Mr. Little's _
farm and talk the matter over p
with one who knows better. ^
^
c
The country has been divided a
into twelve districts in which the b
twelve national reserve banks tl
will be located and the twelve ^
cities have been named. North ^
Carolina, South Carolina, Vir- tj
ginia, Maryland and ^most of \
# West Virginia comprises a dis- C
trict and Richmond is where the
reserve bank will be located, tl
me bankers are pleased that a
South Carolina is in this district h
instead of the Atlanta district.
It is said that this will mean al- n
most financial independence for fc
this district because of the gieat a
number of enterprises engaged d
in and the variety of money-making
occupations followed by e
the people of the district. When nr
one part of the district may be S
in need of money another part g
will be taking in money and be ir
in shape to loan. For these rea- w
sons the bankers in this section
feel that the\ will rarely have to al
go to New York to borrow mon- sc
ey. " ?
The cities in whirh tho mcnrvn
? ??av IVOV1 VC It
banks will be located are as pi
follows: gi
NewYork, Philadelphia.Cleve- P
land, Richmond, Atlanta, Chica- ai
go, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Kan- 8
sas City, Dallas, San Francisco
Boston?twelve, the maximum fc
number under the law. ei
In the Richmond district are ^
included 475 national banks, the
total capitalization for the regional
bank being $6,543,281.
The first real fight among n
Democrats since the present ad- ai
ministration began occurred in tl
the national house of representa- e
tivw ft few days ago oyer the cl
epeal of Panama canal tolls exsmption
act, and Speaker Clark
ind Oscar Underwood were
ined up against the president
ind his supporters.
To our mind the attitude of
hese three men on this subject
ihows the wisdom of the selecion
of Wilson at the Baltimore
convention as the nominee of
he party.
The Panama canal has been
constructed at an enormous cost
o the government, and the people
at large have paid the bill.
The cost of maintenance and
he interest on the investment
nust be paid by the ships that
>ass through the canal and there
>y reap the benefits. The fact
hat a ship belongs to an American
is no reason why it should
>e exempt from tolls in passing
hrough the canal. This exempion
is nothing but a ship sub-*
idy in disguise. There is no
nore cause for it than there is
or protective tariffs on goods.
Vhen sifted down, it is just the
>ld question of taxing the many
or the benifit of the few.
Then there is the other reaon
why this exemption act
liould be repealed, that our
eaty agreement with England
1 which we have agreed
irough our authorized represenitive
to give all nations the
ime treatment as to tolls and
rivileges of the canal. This
Tas a bad bargain, they tell us,
ut we fail to see it that way.
: the government must aid
.merican ships by giving free
assage through the people's
anal, why not buy up the rail>ads
and let all of us ride free if
'e can show that we are Amerians?
The president and his followrs
are right in their efforts to
jpeal this act, and we hope the
mate will pass the repeal bill
ist as the house has done.

CHURCH NOTES

Last Sunday wk5 wa splendid
ay for us at White Plains and
"enter Grove school house.
,arge congregations at both
laces. At White Plains in consrence
Saturday we appointed a
ommittee to canvass the entire
lembership of the church for
lome and Foreign Missions.
Ve do not believe in having a
ommittee of this kind to go out
nd worry everybody but we do
elieve with all our hearts that
lis "every member canvass" is'
le ideal plan to reach our aportiment
for the various objects
istered by our State Gonven
on.
Ve must say that the Center
Jrove school is doing a good
/ork for all denominations in
lis community. Large crowds,
nd all seems to be p^ace and
armony.
We entertain the hope that
ext Sunday will be a good day
>r the two great causes of Home
nd Foreign Missions in the Sunay
school of the South.
We want to ask now that
very member of our School
lake a special offering next
unday morning for these two
reat causes. If we expect to be
i line with other Sunday schools
'e must do this.
