The Coming of the Weevil.
According to Gov Manning, who. re
turned several days ago from a trip
to Louisiana, Mississippi and Alsbsms
the much dreaded boll weevil will
make its advent into this State within
the next year. If this be true, the
time to prepare for the coming of
this past is NOW. The Governor ad-
f vises the people not to become panic
stricken, but to cut down expenses,
reduce debts and economise by raising
their own supplies. Once the weevil
arrives it will not disappear ao long
as cotton is planted in that area, and
“dep resaion of land valuea, demoral
isation of labor and abandonment of
farms’* will naturally follow if the
people are not prepared to meet the
invaaion.
The commits ion, of which Govern
or was a member, did not
make a special study of methods of
withstanding the invasion, but stud
ied the methods employed by the farm
ers in adjusting themselves to the
changed conditions.
The fanners are urged to raise
more cattle and hogs, and, wherever
possible, horses ami mules The es
tablishment of creamery routes end
•f pecking houses is also urged.
The people of this State may as
well look the situation squarely in the
fare. That the boll weevil will make
its appearance within the borders of
South Carolina within s very short
time is as sure as death and taxes.
It usually happens that when a
weekly newspaper devotes his time to
trying to get all the news for his pa
per he is forced to neglect looking af-
the collection of past due sub
scription accounts, and if he devotes
Ids time to collections his paper suf
fers and subscribers don’t want it
The ideal arrangement is to follow
the cash-in-advmnee plan, and that is
exactly what we are going to do, be
ginning January 1, 1917.
By the way, have you settled your
account and renewed yet ?
We suspect that some of our sub
scribers are going to see if we have
the sand ’ to cut them off our mailing
list if they don’t pay in advance af-
tre January.
We’d rather have 500 subscribers
at $1.60 a year in advance than 1,000
at $1 a year and collect only about 50
per cent, of the accounts. We will
come out $250 ahead to say nothing
of the great saving effected in white
paper. See the point?
. Two newspaper ventures have been
launched on the stormy seas of South
Carolina journalism within the past
two weeks—The Allendale Times and
The Denmark News-Monitor. We
wish ’em both mighty well, especially
the first named, of which we happen to
be editor and publisher.

Be sure and cast your vote on No
vember 7th for the Democratic nom-
• inees—frm President down "to Coro
ner. Let South Carolina’s endorse
ment of President Wilson be shown in
the biggest vote ever polled for a
President in this State.
Well, it’s about the time o’ year for
the newspapers to begih telling the
aolons the kind* of jaws they ought to
pass—and the—aforesaid scions go
right ahead on their own hok with j
result* that are sometimes top pain-

• ‘ The Times, in common with other
friends <A Col. W. A. AH, feels that
the article in the last issue 0T The
Barnwell Sentinel was unjust and un
called for. The executive committee
met for the purpose of declaring the
result of the election and this it did
on the face of the returns as received
by that body. *It was unfortunate that
no votes had been sent to the border
and that the result was so close. It is
true that Col. All was called upon to
cast the deciding vote in s matter in
which his brother-in-law was one of
the contestants, but we believe be
yond the peradventure of a, doubt
that if conditions had been reversed
he would have voted Just as he did—
that is, to declare the election. We
do not believe that the fact that Mr.
Owens was his brother-in-law^ influ
enced him in the least, The people
among whom he has made his home
for so many years know him too well
to believe that he would stoop to a
thing like that. ,

EVERYONE SHOULD DRINK
GLASS OK WATER -
TO CLEAN KIDNEYS
If Your Rack HurU or Bladder Both
ers You Drink Lots of Water.
When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don’t get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with
a lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidney’s clean like you keep
your bowels clean, by flushing them
with cold water and kidneco which re
moves the body’s urinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal ac
tivity. The function of the kidneys is
to filter the blood. In 24 hours they
strain from it 500 grains of acid and
waste, so we can readily understand
the vital importance of keeping the
kidneys active.
Dnnk lots of water—you can’t
drink too much; also get from any
druggist about one dosen 6 grain kid-
neco tablets, take one tablet before
each meal and at bedtime with aglass
of water for a few days and your kid
neys will act fine. This famous reme
dy is made from perfectly harmless in
gredients and acts quickly and has
been used for generations to clean
ami stimulate clogged kidneys; also to
neutralise the acids in urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Kidneco is inexpensi\e, cannot in
jure, make no mistake, insiet on kid
neco which everyone should take now
ami then to keep their kidneys clean
and active. Try this, also keep up
the water drinking and no doubt you
will wonder what became of your kid
ney trouble and backache —adv.

"I want to tell you what wonderful benefit I have re
ceived from the use of Thedford’s Black-Draught,” writes
Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky.
“It certainly has no equal for la grippe, bad colds,
liver and stomach troubles.’ I firmly believe Black-Draught
saved my little girl’s life. When she had the measles,
they went in on her, but one good dose of Thed^ird’s
Black-Draught made them break out, and she has had no
more trouble. I shall never be without i
