The Most Important State Highway. Editorial, Columbia State, Aug. 24. Of more importance than any other highway for through traffic to South Carolina is that running from the Marlboro line through Cheraw, Camden, Columbia and Aiken to August*. That is the highway that connects Washington and the North with Florida and from the North the' modern caravans move toward Florida more than any other direction. This highway runs approximately through the middle of the state. It rollows the line of least resistance, he same that coast line railwa naturally follow. Its grades are few aaav Tto anil is sandv and roads | jpon it are of eagy construction an< naintenance. It crosses but tw mportant streams, the Pee Dee md the Wateree, and they already are bridged. This is the road, vhich, though it has not been imooth, has been for the most part raveled from the north to south in winter, for the reason that a sandyf oad never becomes impassable. The Marlboro, Richland, Lexington ind Aiken county sections of the road j ire usually maintained in fair condi. j don and present no especial difficul-j ;ies. Sometimes parts of them are illowed to deteriorate, but this is not ikely to be the case in future. Chesterfield and Kershaw are not wealthy counties. Through them runs 50 miles of the highway and it is lecessary that this stretch, if the ?reat thoroughfare is properly to serve in the development of South Carolina, be rebuilt and kept up. flow can that be done? The minds )f the highway commission, the good road9 association and of all other associations vigilant for and intent upon the state's improvement should be turned to that question. o HunttPa Unpleasant Companion.

Greenwood, Aug. 22?Farmers answering a questionaire sent out by The Index-Journal estimate the boll weevil damage to the cotton crop this year in Greenwood county at 50 per cent. A few estimate the damage in the southern part of the country as high as 75 per cent. They declare that the cotton looks better than usual for this season o: the year but It has no fruit on it. Farmers are already planning for the next year with the hope of meetincr hnll urcovil nnr, H itinnc QvatAITlc of cooperative marketing associations by means of which truck crops may be marketed, arc being advocated. In answering the questionnaire sent out farmers were practically unaanimous in declaring that the old system of all cotton would prove certain ruin and more food and forage crops had to be raised. o THOUSAND BALES BURNED IN HA RTSVILLE kartsville, Aug. 22--At J2 o'clock last.night lire of unknown origin broke out in the warehouse of the Hartsville Warehouse & Compress company, of which Ernest D. Sumner is president, and destroyed 1,000 bales of cotton valued at between $7r>,000 and ? 100,000. Just how much insurance was carried on the cotton is not known. The cotton belonged mostly to farmers of this section and had bteen s'.ored. The fire company did splendid work and battled for hours trying to control the flames, which were sufficiently extinguished today to allow the charred bales to be moved about.
