8iuvi Lugs Not Wanted.
As a result of a recent discussion
-with a number of authorities on to-'
haoco in regard to market demands
this summer in South Carolina, we
Jeei U. our duty to impress upon you
;*t Yhla time two points:
" .First: It will be a useless waste of
time and money to harvest the lower |
""plant bed" leaves or inferior "lugs."
CK course this does not mean that
none of the lower leaves are desirable 1
tout the cheap trashy leaves and such
leaves as become burnt would best
toe left in the field for manure, as we
can not hope for them to bring cost
ol curing and handling. Some think
that such grades will not even get a'
""bid" on the warehouse floor. About'
this we do not know, but we do know
that such goods, if sold, will only
stand out statistically against the far-;
rner and make prices lower next season.
'*
Second: We get from good sources
that this year it will be absolutely
necessary for tbe farmer to Let his
tcbacco get ri>e before gathering.
The green grades which have been
:**lling well in the past are apt to be
a drag on the market. These grades
have been exported in the past, butj
the foreign market iB in such shaoei
that you can not depend on it. IT
the hands or "croppers" pull some,
t eaves. cull them out from the curing'
before, marketing. At the end of the]
season, after having had them bulked i
.tlown, market these green leaves from]
ail your curings.
This information is being distributed
at the request of the South Caro-j
Una Tobacco Association which is(
composed of farmers, bankers, mer-|
chants, warehousemen, aud buyers 1
and others, and a* our mailing list is!
not as full as we should like we want j
.to ask every one who gets this letter;
to try to do all he can to pass on this;
'Information as wc feel it will mean
. ihousauds of dollars saved to the
state if complied with. Thc bankers,]
merchants and warehousesmen can
especially be of great service in emphasizing
the importance of this ad-j
vice. Bear in mind that the small
tenant farmer is the one who most
needs this message so try to help us
to get it to him. The newspapers of
course will be our most effective
means of impressing these points.

Often you will see a man working
bimaelf almost to death and apparently
he will be enjoying it every
minute of the time; while in other
cases there is no visible evidence of
enjoyment but the work goes ahead
with never ending regularity as in
the other case. Yet it might surprise
you to know how bod both of
these men hate to do it. This statement
brings us to the point we had
in mind, which is that some men
*hAve the will power and energy and
determination to do something, so
that their lives shall not be lived in
vain, even in the presence of an innate
laziness and dread, amounting
almost to abhorrence of all forms
of work and labor.
Such men are not few. They are
young and some are old. No matter,
however, whether young or old
large or small, handsome or ugly,
they are each and all the kind of man
?ho will stick to duty regardless of
any personal feeling and they are preprred
to tackle the most fearsome '
obsracles in order to accomplish their
ends.
On ihe other hand we find the
Tiien who lack that something which
impels to accomplishment. Whether
they were born short or lost it afterwards
by environment or manTier
of training we are unable to
say. Such a.s these exist. They are
more numerous than the other kind.
They appear hale and hearty at all
times. They will meet you with a
joke and they are good at repartee.
An to doing anything, they never
<lid and never will. They have nothing
to say against hard work as a
good thing. Often they appear, from
their talk to know more about it than
.the man who actually does it. Right
"bere is something that it is hard to
understand. This difference in men.
We have thought it over and given
Jt up as a hard job.

Blossom-End Rot of Tomatoes.
Clemson College, July 4 ? The
'plant pathologist and horticulturists
of the Experiment Station have reaseived
recently many inquiries re
-?uuiiix iqh cause ana proper trentnwrat
of tomato blossom-end rot, a
non-parasltlc or physiological disease,
of which dry weather is the cause or
at least an aggravating circumstance.
In dry seasons tomatoes from the
half grown to the ripening stage are
likely to be affected with a dry
black rot at the blossom end, says
C. A. Ludwig, associate professor of
plant pathology, and this disease Is
likely to do much damage as long
as it continues dry. In normally moist
seasons there Is little or no trouble
usually from blossom-end rot.
The only remedy is water. In a
garden where water can be applied
easily, the benefit to the crop will
usually make the application well
worth while, but where tomatoes t.re
grown on a commercial scale this
remedy is not usually practicable, as
few truckers are equipped to irrigate.
About the only thing to do for the
disease where Irrigation Is not practicable
Is to keep the plants well cultivated
and to hope for rain.
-Spraying with Bordeaux mixture.
White It will do no injury and will
'help against leaf-blight, which may
appear later cannot be expected to
control blossom-end rot.

Fifteen Train Crew* Called Into Service
to Handle the Business.
Florence Times. j
I It was learned today that fifteen ,
railroad train crews which have been j
on the "extra board" for some time
have been called into active and !
regular service with the Atlantic
Coast Line within the past few days.I!
This increased activity in railroad'
lineR is said to be due to the tremen-j.
dous movement of peaches from Geor-j
giia to Northern markets. This busl-!
ness is of course not expected to con-!
tinue for many days as it is necessary!
to move the crop to the market with-j
in the shortest possible space of time
in order to receive the top of the market
and to prevent spoilage also. Yesterday
over a hundred car loads of
peaches from the Georgia orchards
passed through Florence and today
there were just as many if not more.
The Atlantic Coast Line having an
almost direct line north from the
Southern states always receives the
largest portion of what is known as
"perishable" business. Railroad men
are delighted with the increase' in
business and arc hoping that it will
continue.

IN A BAD FIX.
Mullins Enterprise.
Editors in small towns usually
think they have a hard time in making
a bright, readable newspaper,
but a few of us get so hard press
t u as ine eaitor of the Willar, New j
Mexico, Record, if what he Fays in a:
recent issue of his paper is true. |
He writes:
"It is easy to write news when
there is any news, but if you live in
a town where the dons won't fight,
and the eats agree, and the roosters
won't crow, and the women refuse to
talk about each other, and the oldi
ranks have lost their hammers and
can't knock, what are you goinig to!
|do? Our subscribers expect us toj
!write something breezy, anyhow, and
'we are certainly in the middle of ?
bad fix. The shows have come and
gone, and the big trading days are
things of the past. The sun ahine's
part of the time and the wind blows
most of the time. Spring i3 due yet
winters lingers, and we are in a
rather doubtful mood as to whether
we should buy more coal and more
heavyweight clothes or try to shiver
through a few more days and then
hunt up our seersuckers and light
weight stuff. This is a wonderful,
doubtful world, anyhow, but we do
have so many calm, quiet days in
Willard."
Wonder if this brother ever heard
of the newspaper rule in Texas in the
olden days. Out there, we are told
when the country was first being settled.
if news did not happen the
editor would take his gun and go
out and make it happen.
o
How to Stop a Car.
When making a stop, close the
throttle and withdraw the clutch at a
distance from the stop, allowing the
momentum to carry the car forward
until a very slight pressure on the
brake brings it to a standstill. Constantly
practiced, this little saving
will subtract a nice margin from the
running expenses.
In accelerating do so gradually, as,
the engine then uses the entire quan-J
tity of fuel fed to it, whereas in quick'
acceleration it irpts more th??n ii I

Interesting Experience of a Texas

Much Sickness
a
Navascta, Texas.?Mrs. W. M. Peden,
of this place, relates the following interesting
account of how she recovered her
strength, having realized that she was
actually losing her health:
"Health is the greatest thing in the
world, and when voti feel that crraHnaKv
slipping away from you, you certainly sit
up and take notice. That is what 1 did
some time ago when 1 found myself ia a
very nervous, run-down condition of
health. I was so tired and felt so lifeless
1 could hardly go at all.
"I was just no account for work. I
would get a bucket of water and would
feel so weak I would have to set it down
before 1 felt like 1 rouid lift it to the shelf.
In this condition, oi rourse, to do even
my housework was a task almost impossible
to accomplish.
