AULL, IJDITOK* ? - ?? j? 2. o i ni n < j?rioay, August o, isis. i Richland county on Tuesday voted { a bond issue of two million dollars for road building in the county. . Certain roads are to be built first under the provisions of the proposed bill and one of the first is the Piedmont highway as far up as the Lexington line. When completed that will insure us 20 miles of good road between Columbia and Newberry and Newberry is building five miles of I. good road. That Lexington link j will never be a good road until it is!! relocated nearly all the way from Chapin to Little Mountain. It would cost very large sums to build a road over those hills and valleys between Chapin and Little Mountain. But it 1 would be a very easy matter to re- j1 locate, without a great deal of cost. \ Our sympathies a/e always with ' the laboring man, if for no other ; j reason, we have been a laboring man < all our life, and we have never been 1 opposed to labor unions. On the < contrary we have always felt that it i was well for labor to organize. But i we do not see the justice or the right i in the strike of the railway employes. ] And unions should not be used to i hurt other departments of industry. "< There is ne labor in this country that ] ?s paid a higher wage than these I men who are going on this strike. J And if they unite they can almost i cause a panic; and a great deal of 1 trouble. Labor should not try or I < desire to confiscate property. j i In our opinion the profiteers are j J 1 he people who are responsible for j 1 most of the troubles in this country i ] f oday, and if there could be some 11 way devised to get after them then j we would be reaching after the i hnig that is giving' the trouble in Ihis country. j j We are printing a news item from < 'he Greenwood Index-Journel which < . - ... 11 is largely a loc^l story pertaining xo j that town, but it records an accident j which may happen in any town, and i one that might happen in Newberry, ; .and we want you who drive cars to < read it. It states if one of the cars 3 had kept to the right the accident j could have been prevented. We have 1 been urging the drivers of this^town ?0 keep to the right, especially in 1 turning the corners of these narrow ; ctreets. This accident occurred at a ] street crossing, and was caused by \ one of the cars not keeping to the ] right. Sometimes we feel that it ; would not make so much difference i 1 I rf only the reckless driver was hurt,! < because if he has no n^ore regard for 1 his own life than to throw it away < >hat is his business, but the trouble 1 generally is that some innocent per- 1 :;on or little child is the victim, as t in the case referred to. And the 1 urther trouble is that even the care- < lul driver is not immune from the - eckless driver. In fact, it is almost l ke taking your own life in your } Ji3nd when one ventures on the road, j however careful he may be. If we ever reach the point where we have ^ r ood roads there will have to be ^ ;omething done to make it safe for , 'ie ordinary person to ride the road i t all. ' j .!OME COMING SERVICE AT ST. MATTHEWS. < \ I have come to the conclusion that i J < very section of Newberry county,' ^ i.r.d the people of every section, are '> f:e best people and the best com-, ? unity in the^ whole country, and j < iere shall be no comparisons of the j - ijective, or adverb or whatever I f crm you may desire to call it in | J ammar. In other words I will rot J ( . ompare except in the?0, well, it j' doesn't matter about that, for I have j. ot yet been in any section of the i * unty where it seemed to me the' ; ?ople had even heard of the K. C. L.; even knew just what tha letters :v?ood for. And it is good. That is :e only way to live on the farm, to i .ow everything on the farm that you " * * * - J 1 4. . ^ea to ieea man anu ue<is'.. Mr. W. H. Folk told me the othei; *-ay that last season he butchered ght porkers and had put up 4,000 i uunds of meat and 600 pounds of ::ird, and Mr. H. M. Wicker down < n this same side had butchered seven erkers and had as a result 3,400 ! . unds of meat, and Mr. .Wicker has \ > ow a dozen or more as fine looking j aroc Jerseys as you would care to j ast your eyes upon. And There ! - - - V iI v lots of other farmers an over u.ia i anty who are in the same condition j . far as food is concerned, and i 7 f :ien that is the case the farmers of | e county are prospering. The j era id and News nan told the farm- j 3 now for many years thut the only i , y to be a successful farmer was i to grow on the farm everything that | you needed for the farm, and then to ! ?row all the cotton you could, and | that this was the only way to be sue- j cessful, it made very little difference ; what the price of cotton was, and it | is good doctrine. Mr. T. M. Mills, our county demonstration agent, has done much to encourage and help the farmer in improving his stock and in nany ways done much to encourage the doctrine of living at home, an"! it was well for the county when such a demonstration agent was secured, one who came from that section where this doctrine had been practiced for many I years, and he did not know much | about this thing of the farmer having I his meat house in some store, and! giving a lien to get what he wanted j to eat, and what he should himself! 7 I have to sell, or at least grown in suffi-ient quantity to feed himself and family. For several months I hid been j promising myself a trip to the coun- j try with Mr. Mills. We agreed thatj we would take a trip on Wednesday j down on the Broad river side, and | svhile out take in the home coming \ service at St. Matthews church. And ?. on the road stop with Mr. H. M. J Wicker and take a look at his young orchard and his pigs and cows. The rains have been so regular this year and the roaas in such condition that it has not been possible to take as many trips to the country as I had in contemplation. But Wednesday are went. There had not been much rain in Newberry, but from Mr. John Shealey's as far down as Mr. T. W. Keitt's there had been a pretty heavy rain on Tuesday and the road going jvas rather heavy, but then a Ford joes not much care about bad roads, :t just goes, right on. And Mr. Mills is a pretty good driver and with ;he shock arresters that he nas on, lis Ford rides just like one of the aig cars. i Mr. T. W. Keitt lives in the old Wadlington place and he has the louse painted beautifully white, and it is one of the finest and nicest country homes to be found anywhere. One of these grand old ante-bellum houses that was built when the people who built such houses built them strong and substantial, and standing amid a grove of magnificent oaKs it certainly presents an appearance that makes one feel that here is certainly a place which makes it worth while to live. He has the place fitted up with all the modern conveniences such as light and water and sewerage and that is the only way to make life in the country worth while. And that is the way to induce our young aien to remain on the farm and our young women to desire to become farmers' wives. Our people in the J country have long neglected the lit;le conveniences of the home which lost so little and yet add so much ;o th& comfort and convenience of iving, and with the automobile and jood roads, which are coming, ten or ;welve miles is not near so far as two >r three in the other days. i We made a stop at Mr. H. M. dicker's. I have mentioned his fine Duroc Jerseys. I wanted to see his roung orchard. He has seven hund ed peach trees which were planted ;hree years ago and are looking fine. 3e expects to gather fruit from them mother year. For many years he las sold peaches in Newberry and all vho have eaten of them know ;hat the quality was fine, and he had )nly a few trees in his old orchard. Just think what he will have when ;hese seven hundred trees begin to , bear fruit. Mr. Wicker is not a large farmer, but I mention tfim to show just what can be done in this favored [and. He also has some ten or twelve ;ows, Jerseys, which he is milking, j and the Ford enables him to bring! that milk to Newberry every day for t shipment, and if the roads were bet- j ter it would not be much of a iob, i but these cows produce about $70 . worth of milk a week and then they help to improve his land. Of course he grows some cotton and he has some that is fine, but his main thing is to grow feed for the cows and the i pigs, and the cows help to feed the | pigs. Of course, if every farmer went into the milk business it would be over done, but every farmer can and should grow a sufficient quantify fnr his nwn farm. Mr. Wicker is! VJ "? ten miles from town, or possibly a little further. St. Matthews church is nearly to j the river, some four or more miles' beyond Mr. Wicker's. The roa J most j of the way is bad, and after you! cross Heller's creek it is particularly j bad. A ?reat many of the white peo-: pie who lived beyond Heller's creek have moved out since the building of i the Parr Shoal dam.
