Running a Weekly Paper.
To many of the uninitiated,
nothing is easier than running a
newspaper in a small town; to
these its a sinecure?all the
editor has to do is to sit in his
office and wait for his friends to j
come around and tell him what
is happening. Then if he does
not get out an interesting paper
it is because he lacks the energy
to put the news into "copy" for j
the printers.
It is, argue those who have j
fourth or fifth rate information
on the subject but whose pretensions
of knowledge are first
rate, like Napoleon Lajoie's view
of playing first base: the baseball
player ought to be not only
willing to comply with the instructions
of his manager when ;
told to play the position but
should pay for the privilege?it's
so easy; that is, to Napoleon
Lajoie.
But that there is only one Lajoie ;
on the diamond is a fact which
is overlooked by those who pro-1
profess to believe that the ease
with which the great Cleveland
ball player exercises his skill
should be duplicated by the
weekly newspaper editor. Nothing
is more remote. The country !
editor who endeavors to make
his paper what it should be instead
of, as some one has
Classified the weekly press, a
sewi r through which the daily
press discharges its stale news
and editorial opinion, finds his
work not only laborious but often
irksome.
The thought that the friends
of the editor exert themselves
to supply him with the news is a
fiction. They don't do it, however
kindly they may be disposed
toward him personally.
Let us (ake the experiences of
the Fort Mill Times as illustrative
oi the assistance rendered the
country editor. Seldom does one
tell the editor of this paper,
voluntarily, of an incident for
publication. The people who
ought to be interested in making
this a representative paper of
the town and county either
thoughtlessly fail to inform us of
the things which would make
the paper more readable and the
publication of which would promote
the public interest or assume
that the paper will get the information
anyway. Often the
paper does not get the information
anyway and the very man
who complains of the item being
omitted from the news columns
has himself to thank for the
omission. He was in possession
of the information but failed to
give it to the paper. The Times
solicits the cooperation of the
public. Lack of cooperation tells
against both the paper and the
people for whom it is Dublishpd
And now, brethren, recognizing
our humble station in life
and the deference we should accord
a superior fellow-being, let
all rise and remain standing
while we read in unison some
selections from Zach McGhee's
Addisonian essay on "How I Be- j
came a Great Man, or Teaching
the Common Herd from My
Fount of Cyclopedic Knowledge.'' |

The Fort Mill Time* WVifaid rather
seem to have a grouch and a mighty
one ajgainst the Legislature of Soutn
Carolina of, at least, some of the
members, when it says:
"One of the crying needs of South
Carolina is a Legislature composed of a
smaller number of ignoramuses and a
greater number of men of sense. There
must have been at least 25 men in the
last General Assembly who did not
I Know ine ainerence between a bill
| and an act. Others often did not know
| how to vote on matters that came
! up for disposition, finding it necessary
j in many instances to ask a colleague
i whether aye or no meant the affirmative
j or negative."
: Such ignorance in a large number
I of members is hard to beJieve. Hasn't
The Times been giving too loose rein
j to its imagination or else let its indig!
nation over some action of the Legis|
lature to which it opposed run away
with its usual discretionary fairness?

From every aide we are hearing complaints
about lice and other insect parasites
on stock. The severe winter
makes this condition much worse and
almost everyone is more or less in need
of something to kill these pests and put 1
the stock in condition to thrive and put
on flesh. Naturally the demand is for
1 a material that is safe and easy to use. ,
1 In other words, nobody wants to em- |
ploy rank poisons on account of the j
' ever present danger of a disastrous ac- |
cident, and a material that requires a
I great deal of work to prepare, boiling, j
mixing, settlirg, etc., is just about as
unpopular. It will be good news to all
' to know that there is a product on the j
market that fills the bill exactly. I |

1 It was not long ago that sheep were
the only animals that were dipped and
consequently dipping time meant nothing
to people who kept uo. sheep. Most
farmers now real:*? that hogs need dipping
just as mttch as sheep. There is
no surer way to prevent that dread disease.
hog Cholera, than to keep the animal*
clean and thriving. A healthy hog
is not an easy victim to any disease.
The best way to keep hogs clean and :
thriving is by dipping.
The same is true of poultry, and a |
f reat many make it a practice to dip
owls frequently during the summer.
Colts and calves are also much better j
for an occasional bath.
