Somehow or other, no matter how
Tmaaay- new roads are put down others
always seem to require repairing.
More people in the country operate
-automobiles per capita than people in
the cities; but in tbe oia aays mom
people in the country alsu operated

The Hartsville Messenger has increased
its advertising rates to 40 and
50 ceuts an iuch. The Messenger has
flione what many papers will hove to
4o if they hope to survive this period
of inflated prices.
To make goods cheaper, more goods
.are needed. .The way to get them is
to speed production. It's simple, but
come people can't get it because they
wuld rather let the other fellow dot

, There will be no more money loanto

John D. Rockefeller was a delegate
to the inter-church world conference
Ml Atlantic City. Before registering at
the hotel, he asked the clerk tG give
*im the* rates. He carefully comparv
?d the clerk's quotations with the
V urates given in the bulletin issued by
IK the conference for the guidance of
^*^?lelegates, and finding no discrepant^
permitted his bags to be taken to his
room. Mr. Rockefeller is said t0 be
, the richest man in the woijld. His
treaKh is estimated at a billion dollars.
We have seen many a man who
ttound it to hard to make both ends

rates. The poorer a man is, it

Florida is making a great bid for
the moving picture industry and
threatens t0 be a keen competitor
against southern California. Florida
has a plenty of sunshine and mild
weather the year around and is closer
to New York than California. Quite
a number of large producing companies
have been utilizing Florida for
this work and Miami may yet become
the Los Angeles of the south.
It's been a hard winter throughout
the northwest, with plenty of cold and
snow early in the winter and consistent
attacks by King North Pole ever
since. But the> silver lining to the
cloud is that there will be much moisture
in the ground next spring and
good crops are assured. In some sections
of the northwest the cold has
been so intense that cattle and stocks
In droves have frozen to death, occasioning
severe losses.

MOTORING TO THE FINISH.
It is pleasant to learn from an expert
that the supply of gasoline is
likely to last a few generations longer,
and if many additional new fields
are discovered the supply may last
a hundred years. The law of mathematics,
however, will triumph, in
the end, as no matter how great a
supply in the bowels of the earth one
capsToi continue subtracting forever.
But by that time, motor drivers in
Dillon ar( assured the necessary supply
r.f gasoline will be produced from
all manner of stalks, weeds, apples
and what not. From this it would appear
t'.ut the supply of motor-driving
maieiial will in reality never give
out.
How long this old world is going to
last nobody knows, but scientists say
some kind of motor-driving material
mtsu wo or ith us the finish.

NECKO <?ETS SHOCK
Load of >'Krate of Soda Burned.
Chester, Jan. 7?The question,
"is nitrate of soda combustible:"
which one frequently hears asked,
I was answered yesterday afternoon to
comnlete satisfaction of a negro who
| was driving a wagon loaded with
seven sacks of soda down the Fish
Dam road. All went as merry as a
marriage bell as long as the driver
elected to journey along without resourse
to his pipe or cigarette; but
in an evil moment he decided to
smoke, and his philosophizing then
and there had a rude and sudden termination,
for like a powder magazine
the whole lQad of nitrate of soda
was gone up in smoke and along with
a good two horse wagon that W. J.
Stone, owner of the soda, had but recently
purchased.
Nitrate of soda is very combustible,
being composed of some of the ingredients
used in the manufacture of the
most powerful explosive; and County
Farm Agent H. K. Sanders advises
buyers and users of soda to see to it
that fire is kept away; if they/want
to avoid a costly and dfsastrous conflagration.
