Attention is called to the cartoon ort our first page, "King Haigler says the first hundred yearn were the hard est.' This cartoon wan drawn by Mr. Frank Hopkins of our city in the interest of the Kershaw County Fair, and it is especially appropriate at this time. The past year has been a hard one from the agricultural standpoint; all crops have been poor, and prices have been low. 'As a re sult, there has been much discourage ment felt throughout the county. When approached fo? county fair ex hibits a great many have said that on account of the times they would be unable to take part, but on the whole co-operation has been splend^Ut. In contrast to the seemingly hard conditions of the year 11MJ4 the con ditions in Haigler s time are vividly portrayed by Mr. Hopkins' drawing. Thji pioneers had not only the virgin forests and the hover-before tilled land to conquer, homes to build, food and clothing to tear from the earth, but/also terrible human enemies on all aides to add the additional fear for life and limb. Through all these hardships our forefather*. came, and with flying colors. They gave uh what we have today^jiiid at the pres ent time our Condii-mus are' infinitely so much better that we should carry .on cheerfully and make this the best section in tfhe nation, recently ad mitted by Sir Auckland Geddes, of (ireat Britain, to be the leader of the world, We ask for the Fair Association your co-operation and patronage in their worthy effort to once again bring the county together in a com mon enterprise for the good of all. ?"King llaigler, our old friend for over a hundred years, still watches our efforts.

What U the Trouble at C'lemtOtt? Editor The Chronicle: Now that the boy* of the so-railed -,ti ike. *t CU>pwon )tavr , l>een tried, convicted and sentenced, and there is no appeal from this sentence, lot s rail the matter eloijed ho far as tney are concerned and let's try ( lemson college. I think this raw best be done by a few questions and answers? * Q. What is the name of this col* lege? A. Clomson Agricultural Col legr, Q. What is meant l>y Agricultural in this title? A. A college that teaches improved and profttable farm ing Q. What is taught as to* cattle, hogs and chickens on the farm? A. Any good farmer should keep cows as they can be fed largely on pastur age improve the land, and their prod uct not only is a source of revenue but almost an indispensible of diet. Q. Should a farmer raise hogs? A. Mont certainly. They ran also be pastured, give a home market for corn, and consume all waste, and are one of the chief meat products. (). Should a farmer raise all cot ton? --Most a-'!unvdty not. He should raise wheat, corn, potatoes and fruit. He should also have a." garden and t?st>eetally tft the fall, raise turnips, lettuce, /spinach, celery and onions as it is always easy to dispose vof any. surplus. Q. Would it not be a good thing for n"op|e In town, also as nearly as possible to keep a cow, chickens and have a garden. A. It would certainly help with living costs and furnish good fresh food. Now, Mr. Trustees you have tho roughly,convinced the people of Sopjh Carolina that the above is true, let's ask a few more questions: Q. We presume you raise vqui supplies at an agricultural college where the boys are taught this profit able farming and use these supplies in 'the mess hall? A Why ask such a question like this? Have you .not seen our answer to this question on onge eleven pf our report. We buy Pillsbury flour from Minneapolis, our meat from Armour and Swift of Chicago and Kansas City, our corn from Stokelv Bros, of Newport, Toon., our None-Such grits from Indiana, our beans from Van Camp of Indiana and vegetables from I.ibby, McNeal & Libby of Chicago. Q." Of course you use the dairy products from your fine herd of cows? A. Oh, no! We sell that and buy butter from Armour and Swift] also. Q. Did I not see a fine peach or chard at Clemson? Of course you give the boys peaches. A. Certainly not, as it pays us to sell them and b^\ Pel Monte Peaches from Cali fornia. Q. You surely have a salad patch, mi- buy fresh lettuce or spinach as you know nil authorities say the human system requires fresh fruit and vege tables? A. No. We buy the highest irrade castor oil and . Kpsom . Salts fi'om Parke-Davis; or other big (drug gist, juSt..so it.comes- from the west and is packed in "tin cans.' Ai>. But isn't this tretting the boys , vtcuDg7 A. Why should we care . I of them come from homes of I "Boll-Weevil farmers." bookkeepers I and other poor parents, and a lot of ' ? hem have scholarships, and although ' iheir parents and relatives have paid j thousands of dollars in taxes, isn't i the state giving them their educa tion? They should be thankful for n v kind of food. Well, Mr. Trustees, it shows how \r no rant I am. I have always thought South Carolina raised food cheaper and better than any cold I -tot-age or canned food. ! (,?.
