GHERAW CHRONICLE
JOE LINDSAY, Editor
An organization of truck farmers
should be started in Cheraw now.
Enough truck farming is being done
In and around Cheraw this year, to
"warrant an association.
In order to do anything toward
marketing truck with any degree of
success an organization is necessary.
We believe if an association is perperfected
it will encourage farmers to
plant vegetables and there is no reason
why Cheraw should not be a
wonderful market for these products.
Some one really interested has to
take the lead and call others together
to get started.
Mr. Truck Farmer, get busy and
start something.
A citizen who l:::s the welfare of
our town at heart his called to our
attention the poor support being accorded
the High School Ball Team.
It is noticed this year that although
the school has a good ball team the
attendance at the games played here
so far has been very popr. Not only
have fans on the street failed the
boys but the school children, who
should show school loyalty by turning
out almost in a body, have been
conspicious by their absence.
Nq,w school loyalty properly fostered
and encouraged in children cer*
tainly means town loyalty later and
the parents of our school children
should make every effort to allow
this spirit to grow by letting the
Youngsters attend the games and
root for the team.
And the fans on the street will get
interested and get their money's
worth if they attend the game remembering
that the "Home Kids" are
playing to win for the Old Home
Town and are beine Daid with ever.v
yell of "well done" that comes from
you back in the stand..
Come on, pay the kids what you
owe 'em.
CirJc league Will Hold Fall Flower
Show
"We want to have the best "Flower
Show" in Cheraw this fall that we've
ever had before The Civic League
offers $10.00 for the best Chrysanthemum
and $5.00 for the best Dahlia
and it is time to plant the Chrysanthemums
now and the Dahlias a little
later.
There will be prizes and blue rib'
bons for all flowers and potted plants
also for the best collection of wild
flowers correctly labeled.
Mr. C'aston offers a prize of $5.00
t for the best Chrysanthemum raised
by a school girl or boy. There will
be plants at school house on Friday
for those who would like to have them.
PESSIMISM
rriena, xei me utier u.unaer my
berath,?ain't it a fright to be governed
to death? Think of the pitiless i
riders we tote, spurring us deeper
each time that we vote! Taxes increasin'
and Liberty squeezed?freedom
befettered, deformed and diseased
luxuries,?things that we
seldom may find, covered with "license"
to fatten the grind Legis
late constant, and legislate strong?
plenty of fools that must boost it
along.... 1 have grown weary with
burden of tax, weary of blood-suckers
leeching our backs! Prone to rebel,
if rebellion could win.>.. Galling
with pain at the fix we are in. Dirty
poltroons with a surplus of greed,
suck up our earnings and rob us of
feed Hence I am muttering, under
my breath, Lord, it's a shame, to
be govereed to death.

While the department does not try
3, to point a moral, it is regarded as '
s significant that in 1921 poultry and;
eggs were more valuable than the
I- cotton crop. This was due, of course,
e to the slump in the price of cotton,; Fvprv nno hi* 1
e: and to the fact that poultry and eggs j j

Rapid Increase
i
Rush Orders Boosts April Output to 101,164
i
.
Ford retail sales showed a rapi d increase in volume during March,
says a report from the Ford Motor C mpanyompany,) Detroit, and have
necessitated the building of 101,1(54 F ord cars and trucks in April in order
to meet the requirments.
i
This is the largest output of For d cars ever scheduled for ^)ril, being
10^00 above the same month a year ago. It also marks an early opening
of the spring and summer buying an d seems to indicate that even more
Ford cars and trucks will be sold in 1 922 than in 1921, which was a banner
year.
Orders for Ford cars and truck s have already exceeded the supply in
| many parts of the country and pure hasers are finding it necessary to accept
deferred delivery. The Ford fac tory at Detroit is getting into capacity
production as fast as possible, with t he hope of preventing a similar shortage
when the spring-summer rush be gins.
Ford edalers throughout the United States are urging Ford customers
to place their orders early /and thus prevent the possibility of having to
wait for delivery.
