The following letter to Mtj. Coker, of
Hcrtiville, was published in Saturday’s
issue of The State and Is re-published
below at the request of a Barnwell mer
chant; -■ — —
“As many men, just so many minds”
concerning the business outlook. I
judge from the papers that hundreds
of thousands of young men have been
killed or woundrd in the Eu ope n war
during the past few weeks: I do not
see any prospect of stopping the war
until hundreds of thousands (possibly
millions) more are killed and wounded.
In the meantime the European cotton
mills to a great extent are shut down.
If the war should reach an end within
the next three months. I think the
cotton growing States in the South
would suffer from the effect of this
war for from two to six years. The
killed will certainly not be in the
market for any cotton goods in the
future; the wounded* - will probably be
able to buy less than formerly, the-
women and children of the families of
the killed and wounded will not be
able to buy as much as heretofore; the
families of the men who were not killed
or wounded as a rule will not be able
to buy as much as formerly, for the
enormous expense of the war will teud
to impovish all of Europe, and to a
greater or less extent, the entire
The telephone goes hand in hand with good
roads.
The telephone overcomes many of the obsta
cles of bad roads and makes ii: possible lor the
farmer and other rural residents to transact busi
ness in the city and with neighbors when the
roads are impassable.
Progressive farmers are insisting upon good
roads and telephones. These two agencies of
modern civilization are doing more than all others
toward eliminating the isolation of country life.

world.
The portion of the United States
,making foodstuffs will probably read
a financial benefit. I think we should
immediately take steps to increase
the production of foodstuffs in this
State. We should sow wheat and
vetch, oats and vetch, rye, clover, and
oats between our cotton rows. The
Piedment country grows wheat to
advantage, and should sow quantities
of wheat. Every farmer, and every
man about down who has a garden,
should plant every vegetable that will
grow in the winter. We should gath
er as much hay as possible this fall,
pasture our stock as much as possi
ble when they are mt at wo: k, save all
our corn, which is bringing big prices,
raise chickens—in other words make
at home as near everything that we eat
as possible. If we will make an effort
along such lines, and plant not over
one-fourth as much cotton next year
as we planted this year, we may get a
fair price for cotton in a year or two.
With the great decieased consumption
in cotton goods, we ‘now have enough
cotton in sight to last us approximately
two years. If our people will go into
planting grain, pay more attention to
hogs and cattle, and in addition stop
spending money unnecessarily, we
will be a happy and prosperous coun
try despite the disastrous European
war. If we do not practice rigid
economy, and go to making our food
stuffs at home, there is bound to be
great suffering and financial disaster
in this State; land will depreciate in
value, and property will be sacrificed.
Nine-tenths of the people running
automobiles had better run them un
der a shed and stop wearing out tires
and using gasoline. Most of us had
better wear our old clothes the next
season, if we don’t want to be humil
iated by not being able Jo pay our
Kenest drTitsT IT we omx get W-prao-
ticing a little more .self-control and
self-denial, we will find it’s not so bad
after all.

SIDEWALK NAI
While working on a well digging
machine a Minnesota man jumped
upon a rusty sidewalk spike, bhe
nail drove part of his black woolen
sock far up into his foot. He remov
ed as much of the sock as he could,
put on Allen’s Ulcerine Salve, and
kept right on with his work. The
salve drew out parts of the sock and
all other poisons and’ in a week his
foot was healed up.
This salve is one of the oldest rem
edies in America and since 1861) it
has been known as the only salve
powerful enough to cure chronic ulcers
and old sores of long standing.
Allen’s Ulcerine Salve acts by draw
ing ouj the poisons and healing the
sore from the bottom up. It is Vo
powerful that it heals new cuts and
sores jn one third the time that com-

By Running it Through the *
_ . • . ■ . • , r '
Cotton Maturing Machine
To Farijiers aijck Planters—
The Farmers Ginning Company of Barnwell calls atten
tion to the wonderful improvement made in 1 the condition of*
wet and green cotton by running it through this wonderful
machine, which dries out all moisture, thereby preventing n gin-
cut” and enhancing the value of your cotton at least two cents
a pound; The seed also sell for a much higher price and the
cotton can be stored for bonding when wet ’cotton would not
be accepted. .
To introduce the machine and prove our claims, we will,
for a limited time, run your cotton through the Hall machine
for two dollars a bale. This price must be advanced after we
have proved the above facts. The gin will stamp your bale
STERILIZED by the HALL PROCESS
V
so that the cotton buyers will know they are buying cotton
that will never deteriorate or lose in any way.
As we have already had so much cotton offered to us
for this process by farmers who know of it, our gin is running
night and day and we urge that you bring your cotton to us as
early and quickly as possible. We quote the following unso
licited testimonial from the leading cotton buyer of Barnwell:

Dear Sir:
1 have seen the “Hall Cotton Maturing Machine” in operation
at BaTnwetf, S. C-, and have given it considerable thought. 1 see it
opening perfectly green cotton bolls and turning out a high grade cot
ton, free from leaves or trash - . 1 see it drying out gre^n cotton picked
in August, taking out all moisture and ready for the spindle or export.
I see it drying out seed cotton, wet from jam, and ginning free from
“gin-cut.” In my opinion no up-to-date ginnery is complete without
*your system. , . . : v;
