motion of a movement to improve
conditions for breeding stock in
this county, eradication of cattle din '
m.imm and insect posts, and the ad- i
vaiicement of stock raising Intercuts |
generally. The possibilities of this
movement are wonderful and un
limited. Every person intermitted In
tho county's welfare should attond
? he coming meeting and give to the
Association alt the help poHHihle.
In another column we publish a
communication from a good lady
friend containing a suggest ion an
L ' timely as It Is humane. It has for
it? purpoKe the stimulation of that
quality which prompt*) lovers of
Cod's feathered creature*) to look
with horror upon the ruthless slay
lng of harmless birds. We are
thankful to our friend for thin sug
g (jet ion, Ittii spirit touchoe iih and !
we gladly offer to children of jthe
surrounding country us much space 1
an they care to use for letters up
on thia subject. We feel that by !
following the lead given by our
friend a great goocj "can ~6e accom
plished. The feathered tribe is in
ao. small measure a benefactor to
all mankind in that without it for
ests and farm products w""td
tally at tho mercy of insect pests.
Any movement that lian for ita ob

our hearty cooperation and com-,

The following from our neighbor,
the Columbia Record, nhould prove
interesting to Kershaw home own
era:
"Darlington is to show Camden a
tiling or two about ho rue shows. A
meeting for the final arrangements
necessary to organze the Darlington
Horse Show and Tair Association
was held hint week and no\y this
much needed organization is an (as
sured fact. So rapidly have the de
tails been consummated since pub
licity has been given them that one
scarcely understands, but tills can
be explained when tho statement is
made that good work has been quiet
iy done for some weeks ? almost
months? past. Dr. Snyder, a noted
Veterinary surgeon and expert horse
show man, was present by special
invitation and gave all present the
benefit of his experience. The
charter has already been received.
Work has already been actively con
Huued. The show lhl? year will In
clui)? thr?? day*, beginning July 2
and lasttnic through tho "Oloriou*
Fourth." Dotalta will ho announc
ed later, hut tho authoritative mute- I

J showing what piey Inlend doing, aud
. the moat Important consideration In
volved 1# that unity and purpose
j have accomplished one of tin* b<*t
(possible development# for the jown
| and county In tho future."
Wo have no objection to being
| "shown,4' but will warn our friend
that to equal our show the promot
er of this UHHoclatlon will have to
go ttfune. No simitar eytfjn.i In j
South Carolina or tho whole South |
?for ijuu matter has ever yet sur

MorclmutK Kluuild Advortlwe,
Stagnation is the result of getting
TfiTT) a rut a'nd stlcfcing there. Tho
way to prevent gettliiK Into one and
the way to get out, if therein, is to
keep one's eyes open, gather ideas
from others, try things on their
?Tie ? 1 1 s - and act accordingly. This
in uo.'ueth ng 'lot many a biOdnetm
man needs to learn There are soni
things in business that can never be
oispehsed with honorably. Among
(hem are probity,1 fairness in deal
ing, truthfulness, rnd a lot of other j
-Id fashioned virtues. Hut to think |
ths(t. u. ertaln methods are a necessl- j
t.y tod'.ty bocnuBe they were fifty oi '
more >oars ago, or because one's
grand father employed . them is ab- 1
surd and shows that one has got
Into a rut. Changing conditions and
fushione demand a change oftentlme
if) a way that one advertises the bus
Jness. The modern business man
cannot afford to wait for people to
come to his store to find out what
lie has on his shelves; instead he
goes after customers through the
medium of attractive and truthful
ads so that at a glance one may
j learn, what he can buy. And this
for the simple reason that more than
ever people read newspapers to find
what is going on In the world and
I what business men are doing/ ? Or

i Col. Teddy Is again in tho lime
light. A Michigan editor accuses
him of being a boozer and 'the Colo
nel has brought suit to recover dam
j ages to the amount of $10,000.

Thin letter Im to you *? a mem
ber of the liuhlntHH Men's Aim
elation of Camden and the trading
public. '/
The llboV4 du'iii louf?l association
ha# boon fonnoil io work together
In every way to bring about a better
collecting syatem than we now have.
Thh* t-liaii ge ha# been needed for
a long lime, and the business men
have ul ia#t gotten together ^ and
will now Rtnnd [18 one man.
The plan of thia association is
to cauae every member of ita body
to know who la paying their obliga
tions and who is not paying, In
thiH way tho man that don't pay his
bills will soon have to pay cash for
? ill i hat lie gets.
"^Ve firmly believo titat the /future
progress of Camden, in a large mea
sure Ilea with the man (hat is living
on a caab baais, and not the one
that is living beyond his meanw, and
not paying Ida debts, and for thin
reason w? appeal to the good peo
ple of our town and county to aid
uh in thiH work.
Our good* are bought on 10 to
CO days time, and when tho bills
are due, they must be paid. We
mention this that you may know
why we inuat insist on your account
being paid moro promptly. When
you buy a bill of goods, and havo i
aa mo charged, speelfy tho time you
wish to havo before thia bill be
come# due, and we are sure you
can get your terms, but when it is
due, be a man of your word and pay
saint*. If not ail, do the bes-t yon
can, and in this way show that you
want to do tho right thing. If ypu
do thia, we predict a brighter fu
ture for Camden.
The Business Men's Association.,
It Ik announced that Senator Hoke
Smith in trying to have the pay of
rural mall carriers Increased to
$1,400 per vear, and we hope the
Senator's efforts In this direction
will bear fruit, for at their present
salary .flu; carries have some \dlf fl
eulty in making both ends iriboj.
When the fact that they have to
maintain two horses is taken into
Consideration, it must be admitted
tht the men are very poorly paid
for the Bervlee they render.
It woud be interesting to know
vj-lth just whom the fault lies in
I our Governor's fight with the city
and county authorities of Columbia
[ in the trouble growing out of the
city's .case for auto speeding against
his colored chauffeur.
South Should (ir?w Livestock.
With its long growing season and
abundance of feed crops, the South
should be able to grow the beef
and butter, the bacon and lard it
now buys, for just as iitVle as any
other section can produce theiu.
And It can do -this very thing.. Hero
is some of the testimony ::s it re
lates to pork production:
Carefully conducted experiments
at the Alabama Experiment Station
show that an acre of soy ?beans will
produce pork worth from $25.84 to
>$30.13. Hogs fed on corn and soy
bean pasture made gains which cost
i' from $2.59 to $3.30 per hundred
pounds, charging everything against
thorn. These results represent/ the
work of Three years. In Louisiana
an acre of sweet potatoes produced
pork worth $7 3.50. Farmers who
have kept close account of the i^ost
of their pork report this cost, as
low, in numerous instances, as 2 1-2
to 3 1-2 cents a pound. Of course,
the average fanner does not pro
duce pork this cheaply. These men
utilized to the full extent the pas
ture crops- cow peas, soy benns, po*
nuts, sweet potatoes, etc. ? which
the pigs could harvest for them
Selves. In what other section can
pork be produced at hs small cost
to the farmer? ? American Review.
JACKSON (iUADlOl) SCHOOL.
j ('losing oxorcises of Jackson Grad
[ ed School were held In the building
of that worthy colored institution on
Wednesday of last week. That the
I school Is proving a material factor
in the uplift of the colored people
jot' this locality was proven by the
interest, manifested in its work durr
ing the term just closed and the
excellence of the program obsorv-..
ed in the closing exercises.
Its teachers under the leadership
of C. C. bowery have done com
mendable work and deserve the
thanks of both races and all classes.
J They are -teaching their young
charges to attain a higher station
in life; instilling in t' eir minds
that If they are to be respected
they must make honesty and moral
ity, Industry and thrift their nlin
In life. No greater or more worthy
labor is being performed by any
people than that done by jhe con
scientious colored school teachers
of the South In FheTr efforts to load
their raco out of the darkness that
has so long handicapped its pro
gress. Their efforts in this direc
tion will receive the hearty co-op
eration of all right-thinking white
people.
