We have had our troubles for tlu past few months. We undertook tv put in a bigger press and had main ups and downs in getting ail the part, here owing to delays in railroads aiu. express, and then in getting every- j thing connected with the press properly adjusted. We are grateful that it looks now J that things are getting in shape ana that we will be able to print a reai newspaper. You will notice that wt have added eight columns to the size of the paper, which enables us tc tViP same amount of advertis nauuiv v??v ?? ing and at the same time give the subscriber eight more columns oi reading matter, and then we are beginning to print a little better. The boys think they have the press adjusted now so that they will not bt delayed in the making of the mails. In fact the last issue was run off with very few stops and it takes only z. little over an hour to run off the edition of 2,800. They first had tin press geared a little too fast, to kee: step we suppose with this rapid a^c but they have toned down the speec a little and the paper rolls through now with no trouble. You know w. print all the pages at one time now and the naner feeds from a roll anc comes out printed and folded read\ I for the mailer. Of course that is i very common thing on the big dailies but not so common on country papers. Where it took us about It hours a week to print both issues wt nov/ print both in about three hour:, and we save considerable time ant besides give more matter and a bst ter print. Owing'to the torn up condition ir which we have been during all this, time we are behind in correcting oui mailing lisl, but we hope to get 02 +v?+ cftnn on/1 will nntifv those whc uiacwii uuvt ??**? ?^ ?-? ? have let their subscription run over and may be we have some duplicates, t \ but all this will be straightened ou; as fast as we can. We are working with a rather small force, but the boys are '.swift when it comes to doing things and knowing how and we hope everything will move smooth from now on. THE BOLL WEEVIL. \* The gentleman seems to have arrived in Newberry. We have sear, quite a number of bottles brought ir from different sections of the count} containing the animal and they s::\ | that he is increasing very rapidly and that he is doing great damage^ tc ' the crop. The wet weather that we have had recently has been good foi him and from all reports he is spreading very rapidly. A large part of the crop will be made, though there is no doubt the weevil will do great harm to the crop this year. The thing for the farmer to do :? to make arrangement to plant les? cotton the coming year and to. plant more of other crops. That is the right thing to do even if there was no boll weevil in existence. It his been the thing that the farmer in this section should have done long ago. Even with the weevil now approximately over the entire cotton belt the crop is about as large as it has ever been, and the price continues down and the only plan for the farmer is to plant more foodstuffs and be pre pared to live at home and to feed the people who live in the towns of course getting proper compensation for his food and then plant cotton boll weevil or not. The people in this section should W be in better position to meet the issue than were the farmers of other sections where the weevil has been, and it is said they are prospering, and we have heard it said that the weevil was a real blessing to the farmer. No use to go on growing cotton when there is no market for \jt or when the market is below the cost of production, even if the weevil had never come. A pretty good plan would be to plant r.o cotton at all the coming year and hold half the present crop to market next year. THE BONDS VOTED. XT i.1 J. Xl I 1 1 f 1 i\ow uiai ine oonus nave oee:i j voted and the highway commission j chosen we hope that there will be j something: doing in regard to roads in the near future, and we ho^e also I j that while the commission is building ; the svstem cf countv to countv high- : ways that it will not forget to do j something for the roads running out i from these roads, 'because there are j many roads besides the ones that will - j connect the counties and there are | many people living out on these roads j mmmmmmmmmmPBKWKammmmmazwmwmtm ? n bw? f ? .vho holp to pay the cost of the ma;;i J roads and they are entitled to con- j ^deration. and we are satisfied that j he commission will remember thi . | because they come from all sectioi : j )f the county and will look after th.:- \ nterests of their section?. And they j : i 1 ii . _ : fU?4 +1 .. >v:u nave me same iiicunie ui?t a. :ounty now has for this purpose ar 1 ! :ome of the bond money as well. And when the county to county -ystem is ready to turn over to the |; state highway department there w'j j je no more expense on the county fjr ! maintenance as the state departme i | A'iii take this over. But it will be some time before the 5 -ionds are available or the work can jejrin. The bond market is not ve y ; strong- just now, and it may bs some j ,ime before the bonds can be sol i. j The act we bcliev6 provides that the oonds can not be sold below par. The commission is made up of go^c". .md sound business men from all .*anks in life as to business and \/c .lave faith in their ability to spe.K .he money pioperly so that the people who pay may have and be able tt ee results. This highway commission will a!sc. i ,ake over the county government ! vvhen the term of office of the cou: ly supervisor and county commissioner; expires. They are to elect a c.\*. . engineer to have charge of the rcat ' ( work in the county and we hope that 1 .t means a day of better roads foi j Xewberry county.
