PLANTING SCHOOL YARDS.
1.
Why will you patronize the mail order houses when
you can get better goods at cheaper prices from Wal-
terboro merchants?
2.
Why don’t Walterboro merchants advertise more and
let the people know what they have to sell and what
bargains they offer?
3. Why will you send off your job work when you can get
it at home just as cheap or cheaper?

Whet An improvement Club Can Do.
An improvement club is often started
from a >e!iisli motive merely to make
a place and time for improvement and
recreation, but seldom stops there,
['here has Ix-cn so much accomplished
through tin? club that has lienetited the
general public that all cannot Ik? told
in a short space, but a few things as
just a hint or two are mentioned in the
Kansas Farmer: Help to save the for
ests and plant more trees, lieuutify
and make clean the back yards. Make
the community sanitary and attractive.
Itring reading mutter within the reach
of all by the use of the traveling libra
ries. Iietnand good roads and get them.
Get rid of tramps by putting them to
work at a wood pile or digging. Make
theci pay for what they get. Arouse
public interest in things that tend to
raise the moral and mental atandnrd.
These are a few. and doing one of
tkem will open the way for others.

Work For Vacant Lot CommitUs*.
All wild plant growth Is now going
to oerd. and if weeds on vacant lots
were at present harvested and burned
the crop next year would not be ao
abundant either upon vacant lots or
adjoining premises. Improvement soci
eties everywhere should appoint “va
cant lot committees” to visit or writs
all vacant lot owners with a view to
getting them cleaned up. A email tax
on each member weald provide funds
to eat and born the crop on property of
nonraeidents. Where no Improvement
society la at work somebody having
municipal pride should take up the
task. In other placet an association
could be formed to tackle this most
serious menace to civic beauty.
