Plant a big garden and potato
patch, and then see that the
grass doesn't get it. Cotton's ?
good thing to have sometimes,
but you can't eat it. Remembei

Whv can't Pageland have a
canning factory this yearEnough
vegetables go to waste
in this section each year to give
a small cannery plenty of work
And if there were a market foi
the vegetables the production
would be wonderfully increased,
Think about it.

potatoes cost nine dollars
a bag or ninety cents a peck

- - - - w oaiu a yuiuD to tne
writer Friday night, lust think
of that now. The retailers can't
buy them for ninety cents and
sell them for less than a dollar a
peck. Jumping Jehoshaphat!
A dollar for a peck of potatoes.
The writer sold potatoes for
sixty cents a bushel a few years
ag6. All this should be a solemn
lesson to us to grow potatoes
and other vegetables THIS
year, not for the market at high
prices but for home consumption.

In many cities and towns a
movement has been started to
have a garden in every back
yard to combat the high cost of
foods products. This is a com
mendable endeavor, but it

Every home should have a garden

lutelv no reason why the people
I of the South should continue to
buy millions of dollars worth of

reproach to us that we buy mil;

corn, etc. each winter, and then

through the next winter season.

brought to see the folly of our
way and encouraged to forsake

Will Buy Crates From Local
Manufacturer
A meeting of the Pageland
Truck Grower's Association was
held last Saturday afternoon.
A resolution was passed to
buy all crates from Pageland
Novelty Works at 10 cents
knocked down or 11 1-2 cents
put together. All parties who
desire to do so may furnish lumber
as payment for crates.
An advertising committee
was appointed, consisting of
Messrs. J. A. Mangum, S. B.
Euhanks and H. W. Allen.
The association will take up
at an early date the matter of
securing better freight rates.
