The Overall Movement
FLORENCE TAKES LEAD.
Our farmers have been repeatedly
advised, in season and out of season,
for years past to diversify their farm
crops. The one paramount reason
ihy th<* have failed to diversify to
a greater extent is the absolute lack
of a market for diversified farm pro
; duce. We stick to the ‘ One Crop
System” for the Simple reason that
we have only One Market System.
Farmers find a ready market for
Their cotton, and within the past few
years a ready market for their to
bacco. but for other farm produce
they find no certain or ready mar
ket. - ’ • ■
If a farmer raises more corn than
he needs and has some to sell he
must first find a more unfortunate
neighbor who will buy his corn or
then he fhust peddle it from store
to store perhaps exchanging it for
merchandise. If he ha*,’ a few more
• bogs than his actual need requires
he must depend on the local butcher
to take them off his hands or then
peddle his meat about the streets' and
k a few such peddlers a day will com
^ pletely glut the market. And so with
all his farm produce save that of
his cotton and tobacco.
The day Is rapidly approaching,
[\ however, when thi^ antiquated sys
tem will be changed. The day is not
far distant when the farmer of Flor-
s ence county may load his wagon or
truck with diversified farm produce
drive into Florence and find a ready
cash market for &11 he has to sell.
No enterpilse in the South today
offers greater possibilities than a
Marketing Bureau. A- market place
; where the varied and diversified pro
ducts of the southern farms may be
turned into ready cash. The world
-Seeds every bit of produce that can
possibly be raised on the southern
farms and is ready and willing to
pay the market price for such pro-
t»Ce.
It Is a matter of pride that in this
•eat move Florence has again taken
lead and such a marketing asso
ciation has already been organized
backed by some of the leading
Citizens of this community. Jt will
11 a long felt need. It opens up
marvelous possibilities for tfis en
tire soction, not only furnishing to
the prodneer a ready market for all
produces hut at. the same time giv-
to the consumer a marl^t place
here he may be able to buy what
oduce he needs' and may want.
IHe movetnenl Is bound to spread
possibilities are great. It will
volutionfze farminf in this section
it will save to the farmer*,' thous-
AUds of dollars that now go to Yfraste
1 for the lack of a market.

Get a jar at once from the nearest
drug store. It is a clean, wliilp oint

Better than a mustard piaster and does
not blister. Brings ease and comfort
while it is being rubbed on!
Musterole is recommended-by many
doctors and nurses. Millions of jars arc
used annually for bronchitis, croup,st:f
neck, asthma, neuralgia, pleurisy, rhei: •

(Spartanburg Journal.)
It Is to be hoped that Spartanburg
will not join in the "Oyerall Move
ment.” It is very foolish and un
economic. It does not mean lower
price of a suit of overalls has J>een
but higher prices for entrails. 'The
price of a suit pf ovofam hbs been
about -2.60; the prospect of n- greatly
Increased demand has already driven
the price up to -6 in some places, and
if Hie present craze spread* the pr1c*5
will go still higher. There is proba
bly mpra profit in overalls at to
?10 the *;nrit than there is in’‘a suit
of all woolen goods, if there is such
a tiling, at $40 to $60. Men who work
for their living do not wear overalls
because they are comfortable or look
well but to protect their other cloth
ing. That is economy. ThaJ, is not
show, “sound and fury signifying noth
ing.”
The Overall Movement, is a foolish
movement. A belter movement would
be a movement to make stripes Iho
fashionable dress for the profiteers.
It would be found doubtless that the
manufacturers of clothing are not
alone to blame for'the high cost of
living. There are the shoemakers
who dft seem to stand exactly square
on their feel.
There are others. But we do not
care to indulge in personalities ex
cept to say that (here are ten of
thousands of nhlebodicd men in nil
parts of this country who ought to bo
et work helping to produce the things
that are necessary for the comfort,
and sustenance of the people in such
volume that the* supplies would he
."dequrte to the demands at. prices-
Hie people can afford to pay.

See ; Us Demonstrate
This Great Exclusive Feature
S ELLERS leadership is not a matter of
'chance. It has been won only because
of the superior service rendered by the
Sellers.
Our Automatic Lowering Flour Bin, for
example, costs us $52,000 extra each y«*ar
—-that is, $52,000 more than the best of
ether types of bins would cost us. But
see the service it gives.
Instead of having ’to clamber up on a
chair, straining and pufiing, with a heavy
sack of flour to fill the bin, you merely
pull the Sellers Automatic Flour Bin clown
level with the work table. You fill it with
absolute ease. Then a quick movement
unlocks it and it slips quietly up into place.
This single, long-wanted improvement ia
welcomed by women everywhere as a
godsend. Any physician will approve it.
CABINETS
(t The Best Servant in Your House”
But the Automatic Lowering Flour Bin is
only one of the exclusive developments
which have helped win leadership for the
Sellers. Altogether there are 15 impor
tant betterments combined in no other
cabinet.
To tupply them costs us over $100,000
extra each year, hut they have won prefer
ence for the Sellers in thousands of homes.
Yet this cabinet of super-convenience costs
you little, if any more than an ordinary
Kitchen Cabinet.
But come :n and see the Sellers. Judge it
yourself. Come soon.
