Section OneSetoOn Pages i to 10 VOL. XLI MANNING, S. C., WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22, 1921 OCAL N[WS IiEMS FROM SUMMERTON We had planned to hit altogether in a new territory with our article this week, and had already consulted a doe tor, in reference to the theme we had in mind, and he agreed with us that it would be pretty good newspaper "(dope" just at this htage of the game. But on account of our article on "Un rest" being too lengthly last week, and space was not available for it, and with the promise frbm the Editor to publish same this week, we must pass up this new thought for another time. And those who cannot stand "hot grease" had better get out of the kitchen before we turn loose this "forty-five center meter." "Unrest" We touched on this subject in one of our communications some weeks ago, and promised at the time to write a series of articles on this sub ject if we could get our brains to work, or get the assistance of some one's brains who were better cultivat ed than ours. But up to now many things have been happening in our busy town until we have been unable to get back to a subject that makes people travel through blue streaks and wear a rolled up face and keep them from saying nice things about their neighbors etc. In our previous article we only wvent, back about two thousand years to get something to start With while we were not at the garden when old Eve made Adam sin and g.> wrong. But since that time we hav2 seen and heard people following after old Adam's footsteps, yet you will sometimes hear a man say that lie wishied there was no sin, and un rest in the world, but that same man or woman is perhaps doing today just. what old Adam and Eve did, disobey ing God and the laws of our land and country, and yet saying as the old Pharisees did, "Lord I thank thee that I am not as others." May the good Lord have mercy on such little tissue sheet human beings. And may they reach just about this conclusion which we find in Romans 3 and 22, "Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and up on all them that believe; for there is no difference." Yes we are still very much Worried about things, when cotton was forty cents the pound and no boll weevil was ever seen by any one in this country other things was too high, and we lid not make cotton enough etc. Now that other things has dropped in price along with cotton andl most people confess they can very wall make cot ton at ten cents the pound, if it were not for the boll weevil. Gee don't you know if the weevil had never been created it would be somethiing else, just to give us something to "whine" about. But to be happy we must conie to this conclusion, Which we find in Philippians 4 and 11, "Not that I speak in respect of want, for I have learned in whatsoever state am there with to be content." Why should we worry? We read with a great deal of inter est the article written by Mr. Gray the Coun ty farm ildemonstration agent on I the boll weevil and the remedy to get along for a few years without grow ig much cotton. Amad while we have iever had the pleasure of ilI'eting this gentlenian we must say that we agree with him lartly wh en he says raise hogs and cows. But just, about ihe time we finished re'adinag Ai. Gray's comu nilljcat ion some one be gin to tell us about some fellows be ing in the courts about killiing some' bears down on the Santee because the bears Were eating 1) their hogs, anOd we begin to woml(er how the peopl. were going to raise bogs and bears, and tlen soiie ne asked us who in the world made a law aga inst killing bears, and we hnardly knew what to tell them, lbut we finially tol them it must have been our lawmakers. Nowv we havye no desiret to criticise. any of our lawmakers, but why shiouh '(any one care if all the bears in Santee were31 killed, or if there were ten thousa nd bears in t he swamp wouhl we be any better off, are they any goodl, anad for what purpose should( wve want to raise hbears? Well now sure e'nough it dloes nowv look very much1 like the boll weevil will play havoc wvith the cotton this year ais it is a certailty that the fields are full of them nlow. While some (It ouir goodt farmners say they cannot stand hot and dry wveather, and10 if such is true they should be dy ig bly the tens oif thousands now~' while sonie one told us the other (lay that a weevil dlid not live but. ten days, but we hardly could think so, because a fellow told us the other day that ho had1( kept one in a bottle all the wint er without food, andl that he was just about as large now as a beetle bug, of courso it might be wvell to take au statement like this wvith a little salt. But in spite (if the unfavorable weather conditions and the small amount of fertilizer used this year crops are looking reasonable wvell, es pecially the cotton, while since the dry weather corn is beginning to look rather doubtful, but as usua111l ust about the time the farmer dlecides lie will not make anything, wveather con.. dlitions will change and things will take on new life.

Mathis handed your' cot respondent th( following 'ard with the request that we let it apjpear in our letter this week: "To the good people of Summerton, Strawberry, Ridgeville and Fort, Moultrie, I desire to sincerely thank each and every one of you for the many deeds of kindness, and words of sympathy during the illness and death of my dear wife. And especially do I wish to publicly thank Dr. Stukes her attending physician, for his faith ful and most attentive attention to her. Yes I owe each of you a debt of gtratitude I can never pay, but if at any time itn the future I can be of set' vice to you, call upon me and I Vill Abey your commands." "The fight is on," -What ?, To beat the boll weevil, anl believe me there is something going ont in this com munity in the way of' getting after the "booger." In almost every field you can see a bunch of hands with til cups, bottles or most anythintg that will hold a few thousand weevils, and they are being caught, and saturated with kerosene and the match applied to make sure they are good and dead, but after all this quite a lot of dam age is being (lone to the crop and it really looks as though there wvill be a tremendous shortage in the cotton Lr'op) ott account Of the boll weevil alone.

PERTINENT REMARKS ABOUT -LIVE STOCK One of our most promising money crops in the future is hogs, and in sonme caCses possibly beef cattle may be made a1 paying proposition. With our climatic an10d soil collitions mak ing it practical to graze our hogs almost the entire year we can produce plork very economicaIlly. rr is of the utmost importance that we use good stock if we expect them to make the gais that they shouLl, but the farm ers generally are re-ilziig tiis fact and one notes great improvedents along this line. Wihenl our fa rIers will gvi' the grazinte crops for their hogs a they should, and will learn hov to fee( a balanced grain ration along with their pastures, I believe that we can Produce pork as cheaply IS any country anywhere. ]lut when I have i;1ntioned these fa(cts to farmers maniy of thei have come back at me with the statement that they can grow the hogs but they Can 't sell them. This is true if we (lepend on local Inrkets, for the local markets Can absorb oily a very limit ed amount of menat. On the other hand we can sell our hogs ,anId we caIn sell thei at the market price. It is not necssay for us to (ump them at prices that are below their value. South Carolina has now shipped enough hogs to the big markets to demonstrate beyond question of a doubt that this plan is practical and the prices obtained have beenl satis factory. The County and Marketing Agents of the xtension IDivision of Clemson College have taken the lead in this work. It is not necessary for a farmer to have a full car of hogs in order to market. them advantageous ly, as he can ship them cooperative ly. That is several farmers can go together and in that way make up a car. Tle hogs aIe marked ani grai ol and each iain gets a check sep arately for his hogs. Of course the man who his a solid car of hogs that are uniform ill size nnd color will likely get a better price than will tie man or men who have a enaIr of stuff that varies greatly in size, weight and finish. Durinlg the two weeks from March 7th to March lWth inclusive the co operative sales of hogs and Cattle from this state totalledl $45,074.14, on w'hich there was an estimated saving of $2,461.80. Some of these sales were made direct to buyers in the field and others by shipment to pack ing houses on voIlnsfgniment. The average price obtaiined for hogs ship ped from the state this past season was approximately one half cent a pound above the Chicago market. for that period. I am already lining up some hogs for shipment next fril and winter and I would like for any oine who expects to have pork hogs for sale at that time to get in touch with met, and let me know the number, approxiIate size and shipping time. Let's get Co-operative Marketing of Live Stock stated in Clarendon County for it will mean I money inl our llockets. Wk . W. Gray, ('ounty Agent.
