Under the above caption, The Columbia Record published an editorial Monday afternoon com mending the people of this county for their progressiveness in shipping asparagus in carlots.

Next week a carload of poultry will be shipped from Barnwell and Aiken Counties, part of which will be loaded at Blackville and Williston. A little later, it is planned to load a car at Barnwell, Dunbarton, Hilda and Denmark for shipment via the Atlantic (’oast Line Railroad.

The other day it wn McCormick County wbu h climbed on the flivver with a carload of eggs. “These signs of prosperity are n r longer straws—they are trumpets which tell the world that South Caro lina .is carrying on in the most pro gressive manner fvjr betterment, by raising essentials of life and shipping them when the market is bn d<. “This versatility in farming does not mean that we have clivoreed King Cotton.
