The People wishes to call the nt-
- tention of its readers to an arLc-e
in this issue relative to the co-ope
rative marketing of truck product^.
It is the opinion of those in position
i to know that it will be a losing prep
osition to plant truck next yea>- un
less adequate marketing facilities
are provided in advance. In fact,
it is declared to be more of a gam
ble than planting cotton under bell
weevil conditions.
It would seem that it is high time
for the business people Of this ae't-
ion to combine with the farmers in
an effort to provide suitable mark
et! for the products of the far n.
The prosperity of practically every
ped son in Barnwell County depends
Opon the prosperity of the farm.'>,
and it seems like financial anicide
to ait idly by and awate develop
ments. If the farmer ia to grow
cropa other than cotton, a mn'-kit
must be provided for them, or not
year will find this section in mu 'h
worse condition than it is now.
, We doubt seriously if the av-vage
linn tenant is going to make a
frtfcreas of tricking. It it a br*i. h
of agriculture that requires roomy,
experience and resourcefulness, is
it reasonable, therefore, to expert
that the shiftless negro sfci>t-oA>p??r
twill succeed? The lime has pa-u.d
♦ whan —a land-owner ean give fr**
share-croopper a few sack v of M il
ixer and tell him £o mnkr a rr-'O
cotton, but an abundance of •■urn,
oats, and oth r small grain cun
grown In this »ect:on. But c*en
thaaa products imi t have a ntaixet
if the farm is to pay even a aiar.ll
return.
Qol. Har^y P. Calhoun, ■ pneael. it
of the Home Bank of BsmWell, w. *
working along the right line* in e».-
rouraging the farmer* to plant an
other crop, but it is understood d ;,i
the plan met with some opposit,ii:i
from a few of his brother banker*.
The People agn*ea with him that the
farmers should be encouraged *n
making n crop next year, but wa
believe that another step should
taken and maikets provided for iKcm*
crops. #
We would ha glad to hear ir.> n
aome of our reader* in refren.v* to
this very important matter.

TOM WATSON WATERMELON.
Everybody knows what this ijnelon is,
but few people know the difference it
makes as to where the seed are grown.
Colorado grown seed maxes a more pro
lific yield and a far more uniforih jtoclon.
Matures 10 to 15 days earlier than native
grown seed. This is what proved in Flor
ida and Georgia. This is the first I have
been able to get. Could not get any last
year. I have now a limited amount at $1.50
per pound. .
EXCEL MELONS.
saved no Excel Melon Seed, but am
in position to order from wholesale grow
ers, both South and West, And believe that
I can get as good seed as can be bought.
I have none to offer, but will take orders
to secure when requested.
CLECKLEY SWEET.
The only melon for home use. Only
have a few of these seed, which I am of
fering at $2.00 per pouno. v
WONDER WATERMELON.
Only a few of these seen of my own
saving from melons 50 to 75 pounds. This
melon is just jthe shape of the old Cob
Gem or Eden Melon with a rattlesnake
colored rind. It is a heavier yielder, a fine
shipper, but must not be shipped before
it is ripe enougn. Must be fully rire
when shipped or else does not carry well.
Price $2.00 per pound.
EDEN GEM ROCKY FORD CANTA

The best and most profitable solid netted
cantaloupe for market purposes grown.

kpecially fur A- -44. - Mathis. I was there

pound.
HONEY DEW CANTALOUPE. *
I hardly know how to describe this mel
on. It is a perfect watermelon rind, while
the flesh is that of a real cantaloupe. It
is .very sweet and profitable as a market
product when weather conditions suit the
harvest. It is subject to spoil or go bad
with too much rain at gathering season,
but a real money-maker when climatic and
other conditions are favorable. ...
These seed are $1.25 per pound.
EARLIEST OF ALL WHITE SPINE
CUCUMBER.
* \ •
This variety introduced from Rocky
Ford, Colo., , where over 90 per cent, of the
cucumber seed planted in the United States
is grown, is not only the earliest but also
. as well shaped and colored as any of the
later sorts. Yields a much heavier crop
early in the season and continues to boar
as long as any.
The fruit averages 7 to B inches long as
slicers, and square -ended, very deep green
in color, and hold their color well on the
market. The flesh is ertsp, white and'of
excellent quality.
This variety also “Dills” well and is a
good sort to grow for pickles. As a money
maker for market growers jt is recom
mended above all others. '■
I have a full supply to begin with, but
sold out entirely last Spring. Prices le*s
than 100 pounds, $1.00 per pound, cash
with order. Special discount on sack lots.
