at thf present time. |
Some papers seem to take delight
In proclaiming how many mills are
closing, and how many people arej
being thrown out of work. They
enlarge upon 22 1-2 per cent wage
reductions without reckoning that'
even that reduction is a mere cur-'
tailment of luxuries, and that the!
reiiiabiing wage is still self-supporting.VThe
reduced wage is met by
the reduced cost of living. I

The papers do not remind their

been made to plunts, of the inachln-j,
ery Installed, of the housing for bet-!
teuiRiht of employes, insuring com-',
fcrt and up-to-date outfits when the,,
turn comes. They do not remind !
I you that the war is over, that the ,
daily toll of tlie dead at the battle
front has ceased* that our boys are (
home, that our crops have been ex-'j
l cellent, and that prices, though re-|
duced for our products, exceed the!,
average for ten years; that there is',
no pestilence in the land, that we;i
| are an energetic people; and if oneij
reflects upon the immigration reach-j,
ing our shores?the rush is due to j
the thought that here is a country '
of opportunity, of milk and honey, j
ot great possibilities; that individual
el tort is recognized, that our homes (
are full ot comfort, our lands full of
vegetation ar.d cattle. i(

Our children are growing up withe
a new viewpoint and, as some one (
has remarked, for every day that;,
passes a new generation approaches'
just that much nearer to maturity. J
i and in the heart of youth there is I
a fountain of hope and a well of;
optimism and an urge to accomplish
splendid things that cannot be
quenched.
Xation Sound to Core.
The true hope of the world lies
there and not in any diplomatic
pathwork covered with the meanness
anj hatred of soured old men. Our
country is sound to the core; w? have
passed through u sickness like typhoid
fever and as a result of such
sickness, which has laid us low, we
euiinoi expeci iu gei up immediately
and run around like athletes, but wo

palm on for the ;:atement that he
advocated it some two years ago, but
then We are two years late in everything?two
years late in going into
the war and two years late in getting

way.
Tlie sun still shines and it is up
to us to organize by team work, so

STEALING MUCH COTTON
i It is evident that somebody has
great faith in the future of cotton.
Since he has been in office Sheriff
Bethea has been compelled to de-'
vote the most of his time to running j
down cotton thieves. As one Dillonite
r" serves, it is cheaper to steal it uny
grvsent conditions than to makel
ilwfl that may in a measure account I
fo?Xhe numerous cotton thefts of J
th?jr^jst week.
WV. Bethea had three bales stolen 1
just after Christmas and last week

Miss Mary Carmichael lost four
four bales last week, and Bubberj

in the county Jail charged with the
crime. The officers have reason to ,

THE DILLON HE
POTATO STOKAGE HOl'SK
MEETING SATURDAY* j
The meeting hel<j at the court!
house lust Saturday in response to aj
:all by Dr. Stackhouse did not take,
Jeflnite action on thc Sweet Potato:
Storage house for this coming seas-]
an. It was decided that as an organ!-]
satjon was formed last year and that
is stock had been subscribed to the
smiount of $5,000, and 20 per cent
af that amount paid in. it was best
to g^t all the stockholders together j
tnd let them decide what they want-1
?(1 to do at this time. The directors,
R, M. Oliver, A. J. Carmichael, C. L.
Wheeler, T. S. Richbourg and L.
Cott ingham as elected on the day of
Lite organisation, did not build the potato
house as directed for two reasons,
as follows: "First, because it
was found that there had not been,
tmough money subscribed to buy a
plot of ground and build the house: 1
second, there were no potatoes plant-;
ed to fill a house an,i it was only logical
to conclude that money would be
laved to put off building the house
until the spring of 1921.
A resolution was passed at the
meeting Saturday asking that all the
stockholders in the Potato Storage
[Jo., meet at the court house Saturlay
morning at 11 o'clock. Jan. 22nd,
[or the purpose of either going ahead
pi* receiving back the money paid in
t>y them.
The average value of sweet pota-'
(oes raised in South Carolina last,
rear was $125.S5 per acre. One man
it Cades, S. C.. a Mr. Thomas, proiuced
about 300 bushels per acre and
sold his entire output in Greenville,
5 C., at a fancy price. His average
was over $100 per acre.
A full meeting is desired. If action
is to b(. taken it must be done at
once in order that farmers may prepare
to plant their potatoes upon a
certainty tlrat they will have facilities
for curing them.

SHOUT SEIJiKRS BKTTI u; ON
IlKi 4'OTTON Cltor IN 1?2I.
Clemson College, Jan. 13. ? The
bureau of markets of the Georgia
department of agriculture in a late
Pfceinber issue of its weekly bulletin
presents clearly (lie rase in regard to
the low price of cotton, says Mr. \V.
W. Long, director of the Extension
Service of Cleinson College, in further
urging the need for reduction of the
1921 cotton crop.
"As this bulletin goes to the press
you can buy all the cotton you want
for next October delivery in New
York at 1-1.30 cents a pound. Cotton
delivered at New York is
worth nearly a cent a pound more
than at Georgia shipping points. A
cash margin of two cents per pound
is required. This bureau has never
encouraged our people to speculate
and does not do so now. The niun
who will sell you cotton at the above
slated price for October delivery is
the gambling short sy-'Her who does
not produce a pound of cotton and
is permitted under unwise law to
sell something which does not exist.
This gambler who has so long been a
parasite on cotton is willing to bet
that you will go ahead and raise another
normal crop of cotton in 1921.
This gambler knows that export triple
in cotton is not functioning now, due
to financial disturbance in Europe.
He figures that with our normal expert
demand suspended, that you will
produce a 1921 cotton crop in excess
of the demand and that he, therefore,
can make money betting at these figures.
"The gambler is willing to bet that.
wt. lack tlie common sense to curtail
our production so that it will not exceed
the demand of a temporarily
crippled market.
"\Ve of the south know that we
should not produce over half a cotton
erop this year. It has been carefully
figured out that if no farmer
shall plant more than one-third of
his cultivated land to cotton in 1021
that We will not produce over half
a crop, or approximately six million
bales.
"Let us once and for all prove to
the cotton gamblers who are taking
advantage of our situation that we
have got sense and manhood to protect
ourselves and families."
