about twenty hours after the robbery,
but the dogs struck the trail, and in
a short time caught the darkey.

A letter received from Mr. Wel
born Braisford, who was stationed at
Norfolk, and a member of Uncle
Sam's navy, said he would leave
there today for an outgoing port,
which means, very likely, that he is
on his way to France.
Manning's third tobacco warehouse
will be run this season by Messrs.
Thomason and Tunnell of Wendell, N.
C. These gentlemen are experienced
tobacco men and are live wires. We
are glad they have decided to open
business in our town, and we think
they have acted wisely.
County Agent P. E. Senn, with the
assistance of the local committee, has

been forwarded to Washington. There
were 640 applications filed for a total
of 1996 tons ,ranging in amounts from
400 pounds to 37 tons.
Lieutenant Jake Harvin, who is sta
tioned at Camp Gordon, has been pro
moted to a captaincy. Jake is a na
tive son of Manning, brother to Dr.
W. S. and L. H. Ilarvin, and one of the
finest young men we know of. We
congratulate Captain Harvin on his
promotion and look for something
still higher to be handed him in Uncle
Sam's army.

There will be a (lemonstration of
the lKirstin Stump Puller Thursday
and Friday of thi:. week on the farm
of Mrs. A. S. Briggs, three miles west
of Manning on the Sum merton road.
This Stump Puller is handled by Mr.
F'. C. Thomas and a great many are
being sold throughout the county.
This is the time for the farmer to get
busy on his stump land and as the
price of the Puller is so small it is a
matter of economy in purchasing one.
Every farmer should attend these
demonstrations and see this machine
work.
We wish to call your attent ion to
the adve: rtisement of )r. D. O. Rhaim e
of Sammne"rton in another column. ir.
Rhamt is advertising the sale of War
'l'hrift Stamps. Hie is the first e
im the county to advertise ts'.
intam s id is entitled to considernblo
credit for starting these stamps off. It
would he a great thing for Clarmiilo'n
if ecery rcho'l child in the county
would b!,y a book of these stamps a.
it would be one of the best ways of
showinog practical patriotism.
It would not surprise us at all if
the government did not discontinue
the mail route on Manning No. 2, on
account of the road. 't'here are places
on this route that are almost impass
able and unless repairs are made, we
fear these people along this route will
lose their mail service. Through the
kindness of Mrs. Etta Plowden the
pubbe1 i is al loweud to drive through her
woods mn order to get by, a mud hoile
that a car dare not try to pull
th rough.
Manning needs a Bloard of Trade,
andl needs it badly. Every now and
then some one writes asking for in.
format ion about our town and c'ounty,
but as there is no official organ iza
tion to take this matter- up with those
wanting the information, we may like
ly lose opportunities of getting indlus
ries andi good peopile to locate among
us. If we wvill get togethe'r and form
an organ izat.ion, we can carry on all
necessary wvork without any cost. Mr-.
F. P. Er-vin has offered hiis services
a.S secr-etary free, andl The Manning
Ti mes will donate the stationery. Of
course, the stampis must be paid for,
hut that wvill he so little that we
would not miss the pennies we in

time for- the meeting, and we then
can discuss the plans of what we will
try to do.

Seed Corn!|
Never before was there greater.
need for Quality in every kind of
Seed. Especially is this true of
Corn. Don't waste valuable time
and money on Seeds that are not
Crop Makers. PLANT THE BEST.
Coker's Genuine
Pedigreed Williamson Corn
Absolutely the highest type of reliable main crop
seed Corn obtainable for this section. This Corn
was carefully field selected for generations and,
for the past twelve years has been bred up through
ear-to-row method by Mr. David R. Coker, the
South's leading seed breeder. Through his scien
tific methods Mr. Coker starting twelve years ago
with a Corn that was then the best obtainable, has
bred into this Corn each year every possible vir
tue, until today Pedigreed Williamson represents
all that any farmer of this county can o ain in
perfected Corn Seed. It costs lots more n use
this kind of Corn Seed than to use it at twi what
we ask for it. Why not hitch up this high-grade
Seed Corn to your good fertilizer, expensive labor,
careful preparation and cultivation team and jerk
the maximum success out of your dirt while you
are at it? Price 25c, quart; $1.90 per peck. Special
prices in quantities.
Coker's Selected
Marlboro Prolific Corn
A very fine variety for medium early maturing
and fall and winter feeding. Carefully selected
for high germination and productivity, this is a
splendid Corn for all general purposes, except long
keeping, which, owing to its softer nature than
flint Corn makes it undesirable for carrying over
to the next crop. Price 25c quart; $1.75 per peck. "
Special price in quantities.
Sunburst Reimproved
Golden Dent Corn
There is but one SUNBURST kind and we are
the only people who sell it. Nowhere else is this
particularly high-grade, early making, heavy pr'o
duemng Seed Corn to be obtained. A barrel would
not hold the many good things p~eop~le all over Clar
endon and n other counties have told us about
this great big juicy yellow fellow. It's the Corn
that comes along when you're just about down and
out. Puts the shine on the pig and a mighty'
hump on the mule. Get in the game early.15c the
qluart while our present stock holds out.
Early Morn
Virginia White Dent Corn
One of the old time favorites, especially good for
river and creek low-grounds. We are offering
carefully selected stock at 15c per~ quart.
Eary Adams Corn
An earlier and hardier kind than the sugar
Corns. Has small stalks and can be planted close
together. This is a very valuable, kind for ear
feeding and trucking purposes. 35c per pound.
Get Your Seed Early. Keep Them at Home in'
