Every farmer and every one interested
in farming ought to get a
good farm paper. We have no hesitation
in recommending the Southern
Agriculturist. It is a good paper,
published twice a month, and it has
now 375,000 subscribers. This paper !
can be obtained free of all costs by
B any one subscribing to The Herald
B .for one year or by.renewing their
B subscriptions for one year. There
B are no strings tied to this offer. It
B means you get a $1.00 farm paper one
B year without cost to you.
Thirty million pounds of toB
bacco has been signed up for sale by
B the marketing association of the tom*
bacco growers, which indicates that
I approximately half of the state's toB
bacco crop will not be placed on wareB
house floors to be sold atvthe prices
B bid regardless of the Yalue of the
B product. This moyement of cooperaBV,
tive selling of tobacco is not confined
B. . to South Carolina?indeed this state
B is far behind in the movement, for
B North Carolina and Virginia have
signed up about three-fourths of their
production, and Kentucky -has signed
Iup practically the entire crop. Hereafter,
we predict, the tobacco manufacturers
will pay the producers the
Talue of tobacco before they get it.
Long distance telephone linemen
certainly butchered the beautiful
shade trees on Midway street and
other streets with rebkless abandon
last week. To make way for the overKaarf
wires the bis limbs were sawed
I and torn up unmercifully, and some
? v of the trees almost ruined. Such
drastic steps seem altogether unnecessary;
the local electric light company
does not use such destructive methods
in stringing \ts wires, and this abominable
practice on the part of the
telephone company should not be tolerated.
The beauty of the trees has
been killed, their usefulness as a
gneans of shade has been practically
wiped out for years, and the city's
niantin? and raising
I civic euuiis
these large oaks and elms on the
streets are to be spent in vain if they
are allowed to be torn up as the ones
on Midway street have been. Somebody
should be made to answer and
pay dearly. If such can be forced, for
this wholesale destruction of public
J:*. property.
The first real event pointing to a
f better relationship among the peopies
of the earth, to our way of thinking,
was the ratification of the new
m * treaty between Great Britain and
Ireland by the parliament of England
and the dail ereann of Ireland. This
k apparently ends the fued between Ireland
and Great Britain of standing
f for centuries. The agreement, which
I . was not ratified without many prot;
tests, gives Ireland the same status
L . as Canada has enjoyed for years past.
It may not be all that Ireland desired,
# but it-gives that country virtual freef
dom from England. The fact that
the treaty was ratified in spite of the
, strong opposition of many Irish leaders,
including the so-called president.
S|?.* augurs well for the Irish Free State,
and indicates, apparently, that the
T?o.r>nip arp no longer 'going to allow
f ambitious politicians to hold the I
country in a state of war. It seems
to us that the surrendering of certain
strong principles by both executive
bodies should insure the success
of the treaty.
The general assembly of South
Carolina at its present session .has an
nnnnrtnnitv to render a distinct ser-j
II-,. vice to the state when the election of
an associate justice of the supreme
court 'gets under way. For there will
Wir be presented for election the name
of a man who for intellectual
ability, Christian character, stuK\V
dious mind, legal attainments
| and judicial temperament has
|j^j?y rarely been equaled in the history
of this commonwealth. That
man is the Hon. Jesse Francis Carp
' ter, of Bamberg. Few men of such
- v:_v innA nr. Yf -r Porter h O VP aS
I 'd. Xligil Ijpc CIO VW. vv .
pired to public office in South Carolina,
and if elected he would most
surely reward those responsible therefor
by rendering a period of distinguished
service on the bench such as
this state has not enjoyed for years.
Jesse Carter is the man of the hour.
m
, a big man for a big job; the mail
above all men for this job. South
Carolina or any other state does not
often have the opportunity to accept
such services. To decline them would
be a calamity; to elect him would not
?only be a credit to himself and a
blessing to the public, but would surely
reflect great honor upon his native

Mrs. Jones had been regarding a
second marriage with favor since the
death of her husband, and was all aflutter
when the sheriff, with whom
she was slightly acquainted, came to
the door with some evidence of embarrassment.
"Madam," he began diffidently, "I
have an attachment for you."
"Sir," she replied, blushing, "it is
reciprocated."
"You don't understand me You
must proceed to court."
"Ah, now, do you think it's Leap
Year? Do your own courting."
"Mrs. Jones, this is no time for
fooling. The justice is waiting."'
"He is? Well, I suppose I must be
going, 'though this is so sudden, and
really, I prefer a minister."

auditor or his deputy will be at the
ollowing places on the days and dates
mentioned for the purpose of taking
returns of real and personal property,
and all taxpayers are urged to
make a list of everything they are to

returned again for 1922, I would
suggest that each taxpayer owning
land find out just how many acres he
has of tenable land, number of acres
of wood land, and number of acres of
swamp land. That will enable the
board of assessors to get at the valuation
more accurate, and the land owner
will not have to pay as much for
inferior land as he pays for lands that
he is cultivating. In order that no
mistake will be made try and make
your uwu lciuiu.
