Of our agricultural situation.
For the ]>uHt two yearn wo have

It Was not necessary- to wage many
of them f>?r they realized that diver
sification Was their only salvation, j
The all iin|x>rtanjL question now
confronting those who have adopted
the policy of diversifying is projier
ly marketing their product's, It in
up l<> each and every one of us to
help them solve the problem. {low
Can il he done? Here Is one answer:
Let every merchant liny what thok
farmers of the county produce in the
line he handles. l.M every indivi
dual citizen demand home-grown
products'. Ity doing this, we will
encourage the farmers to produce
more of th.e things which can roadl
ly he sold at home. t
lleVe is a very good illustration
of the situation: l.ast year there
were one hundred ears of sweet
potatoes shipped into South Caro
lina from one state, not saying any
thing about other products that are
produced right here at our dooi\
On union received her proportion of
this vast shipment. Think of it !
Many farmers of Kershaw County
will raise * sweet potatoes this your,
and they will he the highest grade
raised in any .fection of the country.
What will we do? Will we continue
to buy potatoes from other sec
tions. or will we buy those raised -
right hero in our own county?

HAIL INSURANCE
From now on, hail storms will be frequent; already, some places have suffered, just a
few minutes of hail will so destroy your growing crops that your investment and labor will be
wiped out. Almost every year some section is so devastated that it is necessary to send out
side aid to the sufferers. You can prevent some disasters, but you have absolutely no control
over hail; you can neither prevent it nor lessen its damage. The one safeguard is insurance.
We have written this class of insurance for the past several years for The Home Insurance
Company of New York. They have in every instance paid their losses cheerfully and to the
entire satisfaction of the assured. The rates are very reasonable.
