Down in Colleton County, the Col leton Products Association, a private ly owned $60,000 corporation, has been turned over to the farmers of' the county to assist them in the marketing of their crops this year It is felt that more real good can be accomplished by this action than be attempting to market farm pro ducts as a private enterprise. _ Over in Bamberg County the fanners and business men have got ten together and organized a truck growers association that will assist in buying fertilizers, supervise the growing and packing of truck and finally in marketing the product. No truck will be allowed to use the trade name of the association that doesn’t come strictly up to re quirements. A full account of the organization of this association will be found elsewhere in this issue of 1 The People. In the jnean time, what are the farmers and business men of Barn- » well County doing along this line? What steps are being taken to market the large quantity of track that is sure to be grown in the county this year and in the years to come ? Experience, dearly bought, has taught farmers all over the South the folly of individual marketing. And this applies not only to truck but to every pruduet grown on the farm. An interesting article by Mr. N. L. Willett, of Augusta, telling of the good work that ha* been done by the Beaufort Association is an other article appearing in this is •ue that should provide food for thought along this line. Once more we urge that an organ isatioo to provide markets for watermelons , cantaloupes, cucum ber*. etc., be perfected before the marketing season opens Othar- wia this asertion will never reap the profits on these predort* to which It is justly entitled "Why sit ye here idle?” With the paving of the streets a- rouod “The Cserle" rapidly neanng cony teflon, the question that natural ly arises is, “What is to be done to beautify the park, so long sn eye sore to visitors and residents alike? We understand that a committee of ladies has the subject under ad visement and they will be glad of helpful suggestions and the co operation of every man, woman ami child In the city. feel sure that the City Fathers will be glad to lend any reasonable assistance, but with a depleted t-»*asucy ^:ey can not be expected to do a great deal at this time. A hedge set out just inside the curb surrounding the park would add greatly to the attractiveness of the business part, of town and would serve to mak t people use the walks instead of., “cutting across” the enclosure to suit their con venience. It will also be necessary to set out new trees to take the place of the * old ones, which are rapidly dying out. Neither of these would cost a great deal. The improvements recently made here put Barnwell ahead of any other town in this section and are prov ing to be one of the biggest ad vertisements possible. Let’s not lose the advantage thus gained. Al ready noted for its beautiful homes, let’s also become noted for our civic pride.

We wish to establish definitely the fact that the Buick Motor Company hak never followed this policy—rather has always based the price of its product upon actual costs and when costs came down correspondingly re- duced the prices of its cars to the public without any camouflage whatsoever. _;K- «•> MRS.
