THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20. 1 >1.1. Personal Marketing The ladies of Charleston have organ ized what is known as 'The House wives’ League.” the pun>ose of the League being to reduce the high cost of living. They (have set aside Tues days, Fridays and Saturdays as market days and the ladies will go in person to do their shopping. This plan was start ed about ten days ago, and the house keepers of Charleston are hopeful of its permanent establishment It seems to us that it is a good idea and well worthy of emulation by the housew ives of Barn well County Tin telephone and the t redit systen are said to In laigelv n sponsible t..i the increased t Xpcllses of the household, for wh'-rt one has a i hatge a e> an. and uses a telephone, the yr.H «•( wbl (:•’ the bill with sie h good" as be has, and it may be that if one went and saw the St(*eh fol herst It, she W >uhi pH tel to purchase else w lure Then, b> paving cash, one can demand .iiui gt ! a lowi r price on tin ar tn les the v lui> Several incidents of the benefits dt riv ed from this plan wer e cited in a Char leston paper last week \ mem ber of the League who happened to know tiiat tin best cold st n age eggs, should not be more th m J < ivuts a do/ CM, Vls.tii) I sto < whe'e sfii- f mml thre'' haske* s lit eggs in.,'k d respect IV e I V Jiiens, .'til eeri’s and 4'l t e 111 s Afti r she had show rr tlu gr o« that sin v is : i'!i .! with tin market pn« i . la s.i.l tier tm l > i enS i ggs tor .kl ll I'ts | I t II, too till e pi I'S, i|>., ] V Is! ts to t l.n ill.. 1 \i I a . ..O II t t In llotlsi country would be in lots better shape. ” Exactly. And we wiah that every farmer in the county who contemplates making such a move would instead make a resolution, and stick to it. that during the coming year ho will give his farm his whole-hearted time and atten tion. There are no "cinch” jobs in tow n or country. What one gets, he must dig for, but everyone thinks the other fellow has the best job, and the less one knows about the other fellow's job, the more he is inclined 5 to wish it were his. Stick to what you have, Mr. Farmer. It is much better to bear the ills you havd than to fly to others that you know ndt of. The Newspaper Bill. We were surprised last week at the narrow margin by which the Rembert newspaper bill was killed in the House of Representatives. The bill was so ridiculous and uncalled for that we did not think it would be given serious consideration, but the majority opposed to it was only two. As the Watchman and Southron aptly phrased it, “it was unconstitutional, in that it infringes the rights of a free press; undemocrat ic, in that it was special legislation di rected against a single class; and need less, in that no reputable man has any thing to fear from the press of this State, since the law now gives any ag grieved person full redress by criminal and civil action.” The greatest champion the people have is the newspaper, and the great est rights and liberties that they enjoy have been brought about by the free dom of the press. One has ouly to study the history of Russia, w here the newspapers are muzzled and compare eonditiuns in that country with con ditions in the United States to prove the corn ctness of this'-tatement Taki awav the right of free spin h and vv.- will h.ivi a government bor h nn_ i losi'l' ■ a in man hv Mu// <• t; I t and : ' ' n ht ,v. i*l for hotMebuilding or repair*, it is necessary to order it from Augusts or Columbia or some other town more progressive than Barnwell. TheJe is a splendid opening here for small en terprises. Let some enterprising busi ness man take the initiative. Monday was the 4Sth anniversary of the burnitfg'of Columbia by Sherman’s vandals. After a visit to the capital city of today it is hard to realize that so much has been accomplished in so short a time. Kighty-four city blocks were burned on that memorable day nearly a half century ago, only one small buildingbeing left on Main Street. Today it is a city of skyscrapers and is going to give Charleston a tight race for the title of "the metropolis of South Carolina.” It will be welcome news to the resi dents of and visitors to Barnwell that the streets are to improved after the installation of the water pipes. Some one has been unkind enough to sug gest that in the meantime those having/ property fronting on Main Street join in the chorus, “Down by the Old Mill Stream. ” Make it a practice this year, friend farmers, never come to town unless you bring some farm product to market. Country meat, chickens, eggs, vegeta bles, etc., are always in demand by the town people and the sale of such arti cles will pay the cost of the trip and a profit besides. We congratulate The State on attain ing its twenty-second birthday. May its publication never cease and that it will he always on the side of the right is the wish of its thousands of friends and readers !!!'.„ It 1- al •out the time of yo: farm w.i ..on- to 1 ' 1 itnc to to ai.'l •, t 1 -t! : 1 witt. for:: ■ i.'. v < 1 u:■ otiUliil" » - 1! - i" ' ' 1 ' A tl.i ■ M::'.!; v.

Stay on the Farm Said a wise farmer friend to us one day last week: “If, instead of quitting the farms of the country and moving to town to work in stores, etc., the farm ers would give the same attention to their own business that they do to that of the men they hire to, there would be no necessity to make the move and the bmrgM.id fruit in the years to come •j l lurtv tbuus'im! people vmv.i .1 the e\ Put Your Monev •>> j tious mv e.xccdrai mediums tor pro- j in a Aew Home « I .
