FAIR
When we go to press neat week
the Kershaw county fair will be in
full awing. The officials say that
preparations have beea made (or the
biggest fair we have eve^ had. For
the past several years, in spite of the
' degression, the attendance at the
KeFahaw ^county fair has grown
steadily each year and the attractions
have been better each year.
The fair management. has left no
stbne unturned to give the people of
the county a first-class county fair.
These men are giving their time and
their energy unselfishly to put over
this fair and they deserve the confidence
and cooperation of the people
throughout the county. This fair is
wArth a day of anyone's time and we
hope that everybody in the county
, will make an effort to attend one or
more of the big days. The exhibits
arc expected to be more numerous
and attractive than ever before; the
midway attractions are better ?apd
more up-to-diite and the daily and
nightly fireworks displays alone would
be worth going many miles to see.
The big days arf^ the Merchants'
and Manufacturer's day, Farmers'
day and School day. All of th$
school children of the county are ex
pected to attend in a body, as usual,
and march to the fair. On Farmers'
K%*:.v day the exhibits will be judged, including
cattle, hogs, etc. On Merchants'
and Manufacturers' day the
displays of the merchants and manufacturers
will be judged. All this, of
course, in addition to the many other
attractions to be seen daily.
Let us all set apart at least one
day next week ?o attend the Ker.?haw
f'ounty Fair.
BETTER TIMES AHEAD
The tobacco growers in the Eastern
part of the state are much better off
this fall than they have been for tne
past several years. Tobacco prices
were much better this year than they
haw been within the past six or
' even years and, with the better cot~
ton prices, the depression seems -definitely
to be over for the people down
that way.
While in this section we don't have
af:y tobacco, - our cotton is bringing
about twice as much as it did a year
ago and certainly conditions in Kershaw
county have improved wonderfully
during the past year.
The Federal Land Bank has helped
hundreds of farmers in the county to
straighten out their affairs and to
start over again, and there is no
doubt but that it has put new hope
into the hearts of many of our farmers.
A trip through the county will
reveal the vast improvement in the
appearance of homes, out-buildings
and farms generally. The Home
lx>an Bank has likewise done a great
work in refinancing and rehabilitating
homes in Camden and other towns jn
1 the county. It has provided funds
to take care of past due mortage*,
to pay off delinquent taxes, and for
pointing and renovating the homes of
people living jn town. There is a
marked improvement in the appearance
of the homes in Camden.
There is also a great improvement
in the spirit of the people. It is true
that there appear to be some inequalities
in the operation of the Bankhaad
Cotton Law and some of our smaller
farmers have really been hurt, but
hough this is true, they can sell any
surplus they have and pay the #20.00
per bale tax on it and still get more
net per bale than they have received
during the past ?e*ral yeare. There
has been a good market for all other
farm products and really moat farmers
who have chosen to make the best
of the situation, instead of pining and
finding fault, have gotten along very
nicely and know that they are much
better off. r . , .
The few doubting Thomases, may
just a* well get it into their heads
that the entire Recovery program inaugurated
by President Roosevelt is
going through. It is impossible for
any man-made machine to work perfectly
in all of its parts, and inequalities
are bound to occur. We think
there is no doubt but that some further
relief will be afforded to. the
small farmer, and even if there is
not, if he will make up his mind to
make the best of the situation he will
soon come to the conclusion that in
spite of his feeling that his neighbor
may have been more kindly dealt
with, he himself is infinitely better
off than he would have been otherwise.
These discordant notes are becoming
fewer and fewer. It is a pity
that, among our leaders there are a
few who find fault no matter what
the program is. We have them with
us today; but the rank and file are
paying them little heed and are going
ahead with chins up, eyes bright,
faces to the future, with full confidence
that the Depression has done
its worst and that Recovery is definitely
on its way.
"Happy Days Are Here Again."
Heady To Make I.oans
The Kershaw Production Credit Association
serving the counties of Lancaster
and Kershaw is now in position
to make cotton commodity loans
to growers, who desire to market
their cotton in an orderly manner, according
to an announcement by Alex
G. Clai kson, secretary of the association.
; The loans will be made on the basis
of 12 cents per poiWi for cotton
(classed low' middling or better in
grade artd seven-eighths inch or bet,'ter
in staple and 11 cents per pound
(for such cotton classed low middling
or better in grade and below seven
eighths inch in staple. The interest
'rate will be 4 per cent per annum
and interest is charged only for the
time the money is used.
, As security for each loan the borrower
must furnish a warehouse rejceipt
from an approved warehouse.
The grower may sell his cotion at any
time in such way as he sees fit. The
notes are made to mature July 31,
1935 but the cotton may be sold at
any time prior to that date.
Kaeh borrower will he required to
purchase Class B stock in the pro[duction
credit association from which
he secures his loan equal to 5 per
(cent of the amount borrowed, the rule
I in this respect being the same as in
(ordinary production credit loan. A
production credit borrower who has
! repaid hi< production loan .nay of
Iri'ur^e use the Class B sto< k which
he already owns in the making of
I the cotton loan insofar as it will go
I toward making up the "> per cent of
j the total amount borrowed on his
!tut ton.
The offices of the Kershaw Proi.luction
Credit A-sociation are located
( in the Bank of Kershaw Building in
! Kershaw and farmers of the counties
served by the association may apply
there for loans says Alex G. Clarkson,
Secretary and Treasurer.

The New.? and Courier.
your Collars worth
Take a dollar out of your pocket,
it's yours?-you can do anything you
like with it. But you can't buy a i >1lar's
worth of commodities or services.
The reason for that is that ar.?.ut
25 per cent of your dollar has to go
to government. If you u-e it to buy
theatre tickets, gasoline, cigarettes,
electricity, clothing or anything c se,
25 per cent of the cost, on the average,
will represent taxes.
The main reason we have allowed
the tax problem to grow so grave in
this country is that millions of people
haven't realized that such a problem
exists! * These are the people who pky
no t?x?i directly. Their income* ere j
below the level touched by the income j
tax. They rent home*. They do not *
own a businesa, but work for some-,
one else. And the reault is * belief
that those who own businesses, have
larger incomes, and possess property
pay all the taxes.
There aren't enough large-income
people in the country to make a dent
in meeting the cost of government.
The great bulk of taxes are taken
from the ordinary person?and they
are taken indirectly. Instead of writing
the tax-collector a check, most of
our citixens pay their taxes unknowingly
during the course of daily living.
Kent is higher than it would
be, because the landlord must pay
taxes. Salaries are smaller, because
the employer is heavily taxed. Food
is more coetly because the farmer,
the processor, the transporter and the
final seller are all taxed. So it goes,
through everything we need and use.
Don't be fooled. Everyone pays
taxes-?-everyone is in danger of being
forced to pay more. A reduction
in taxation through less tax spending
is essential.
THB YEARS AHEAD
The primary ambition of all men
is to assure adequate economic protection
for themselves and their dependents
iib the future.
Of the many who aspire to that,
few achieve it.!' An overwhelming
percentage of men become penniless
dependents in old age, and must be
sustained by relatives or organised
charity. Many such men were once
wealthy. Many more once held good
jobs, which provided substantial surpluses
above the income necessary for
livelihood. Many managed to build
up sizeable estates, only to see them
swept away by one financial cataclysm
or another. That was the case even
before depression, and during the last
few years an infinitely greater than
normal number of people have faced
the tragic problem of approaching
old-age without money or savings.
The aim to be followed in any" savings
plan is security, rather than profit?small
dividends from investments
which offer maximum protection to
principal, are far better than possible
large profits from unsafe investments.
Many excellent savings plans
are offered to persons of all earning
capacities?plans which permit the
investment of a dollar a month or a
thousand dollars. Life insurance,
through its various types of annuity
and investment policies, is one of the
best, as its fine record during the last
five trying years has demonstrated.
While businesses went under, estates
were dwarfed or disappeared, and investments.
4.hat once seemed iron-clad
were sWept away, that institution
[carried on as usual.
Whatever the plan, every man
should prepare for old age. Dollars
that are earned with comparative
ease today will come hard indeed
when the period of greatest productivity
is over. Think of the years
