There is no way of helping curatives
and it's no use to get excited
ovr that item in the Fordney tariff
bill which places a duty of $5 a ton
on potash. The only way the farmer
can even up is to purchase less pot
a-sh, a?d in the long run the manufacturer
loses. It might be a wise
plan to ask congress to make the duty
still higher. Potash is a great cotton
fertilizer, and it is possible for the
south to profit indirectly if congress
would be kind enouSh to make the
duty $50 instead of $5 a ton. The^
farmer is not compelled to use pot-,
ash and the higher it go?s the less he
can affoiQ to use.
Recently a tarring party in a Texas
town went so far as to take a
woman from a hotel, spirit her to a
secluded spot, disrobe Iter and cover
her body with tar and feathers. The
tai party did not like her moral life.
The incident does not attract much attention
because it is regarded as an
aftermath of ihe war, but it is an
act of lawlessness which cannot be
I
too severely condemned. Mob law
such as this is a foe to civilization,
the antithesis of Americanism and the
next tiling to bolshevism. There is
only one law?and tbat law Is the
lew administered by the courts.

DIAMONDS AT HOMK.
It is a matter of regret that our,
people take so little interest in movements
to provide a market lor food
crops. The country seems to be
bound hand and foot to cotton and
tobacco, th0 only crops our lands produce
which cannot be consumed at
homeSometimes
we almost reach the
conclusion that the one crop system
is a habit acquired through generations,
which is just as hard to shake
off as the drinking of whiskey or
the use of morphine and tobacco.
There is no doubting the ^act that it
has a stranglehold on the people of
the south.
A man says "I am a Democrat.",
He Is asked, "Why are you a Demo- '
crat?" His reply is "Because my ,
father, his father and all the fathers
of my people as far back as I can ,
go were Democrats." ,
It is all right to be a Democrat.
The holding together of the Democratic.
party is the only hope of the
nation, but a i an should be a Dem- ;
ocrat because he believes in the prln- '
ciples of Democracy ami not because
his ancestors were Democrats. If <
lie believes in Democratic principles 1
and votes the republican ticket because
his fathers were republicans lie (
is not true to himself or his country.1;
And the same rule holds good in
the business and industrial world.
There is no wisdom in following the
one crop system simply because one's
father and grandfather followed it.
The grandfather might have been a
success, uui n?i maac cotton with
slave labor; tho father, too, might
have been a success, but he made
cotton under conditions altogther
different from those that exist today.
If father and grandfather were
farming today the chances are they
would fail.
All of which leads up to the sub-]
ject we have in mind: In last week's
Herald we carried an article from the
News and Courier which told of a
shipment of 600 pounds of Georgia
raised Porto Rico yams to Liverpool,
Jiow readily tney sold on the Liverpool
market and the plans that are
under way to "make further expert-;
mental studies of the transatlantic
shipment of this commodity."
Here is the beginning probably of
a world-wide industry that will make
many millionaires in the next quarter
of a century. The results of this
European experiment are well worth
watching. It should be of particular
Interest to young men just enteringi
th0 business world.
, But of more interest to the people J
of Dillon county Is the announcement
of the local potato storage ware.'

but the average production per acre
is only 323 pounds of lint cotton
which sells at an average of ten
cents a pound. i
We e?vy the man in South America
who digs up a shovel full of dirt
and washes out two or three precious
stones, but every acre of land in Dil-j

We leave it to any 3rd grade school

farmers on their part pledging themselves
to give this market a fair trial
by bringing a load of good tobacco
