The candidates are expected
to attend the campaign meetings
in the county, and thus good
crowds are assured at each point,
whether the people attend or not.
The rather gloomy crop outlook
has had its effect on the
movement to sand the road
north from Pageland, but the
idea has not been abandoned.
We had hoped to report the
work in progress this week, but
it isn't.
^
Yesterday-a prominent farmer
remarked that a great many
people are getting nothing from
tneir gardens. He stated also
that a little effort in the right direction
would provide something
for the table almost every
day in the year. He was pre
paring to sow turnips and plant
another row or two of beans.
When asked for his opinion as
to the reason for so many failures
in gardening he repliedv
"Laziness."

Mosquitoes are breeding almost
everywhere, along the
branches, in the ponds, hqles,
cans, buckets, tubs and every
other place where water accu
mulates and remains a few days.
They are not only disagreeable
but dangerous to health also. J
Every effort should be made to .

The damage to cotton by the
continued rains seems to be
much greater in the sand than in
the clay. Cotton is usually about
matured in the sandy section by
this timp of thp vpar wViilo An.
gust is the big month for cotton
in the clay sections. It is not
possible at this time to say what
l>er cent of a crop will be made.
Cotton has not behaved at all
satisfactorily during the past
fewdays.
