The British were having an ea»y time in the Revolution when they struck South Carolina, but General Marion soon mrie thorn look like a Republican who has crit icised General Lee In Charleston. The State helped win the Revolu- doll things and go home in Je/*k- tjon, hut threatened to take its son's administration, and in 1801 it oper»-*d the war between the sections by seeeding with'a prodigious ex plosion.

The farmer is the pack horse of civilisation. He is systematically robbed of the profits of his labor. Modern commercialism leaves him Just enough for existence, beer-use modern, respectable (*) commercial ism pirates do not want to destroy their victim. If thirty-five cents out of the consumer’s dollar proves to be insufficient to preserve the farmer, commercialism might allow him forty cents or even fifty cents of the consumer’s dollar rather Ihau see him put entirely* out of business, for it is his labor ami his pro-^.icts that fumlsn the spoils of the system. Modern commercial ism is kind enough to encourage greater productive effort on the part of farmers, but when his en ergy and effort result in a yield that Is greater than the demand, nobody Is the loser except the farmer, and be must see the result of his en ergy wasted —Carolina Union PV-rra- «r.

I BUY IHC Wagons for True Economy Y OU ctnoot farm without ft wagon any more than you can keep house without a stove. You work your wagon oftener and harder than anything else on the farm. Buy a wagon that lasts longer than the aver* age. It is an easy thing to do, even though all wagons which tie painted alike may look alike. The difference in wagons is underneath the paint. It is the material and workmanship, entering unto the construction of 1 H C wagons. Weber Columbus New Bettendorf Steel King What to the difference between » good atenk and a poor steak? '•avail which make them the best w-agon investment. We want every purojiaser to convince himself before haying, that when IHC wagons are advertised as having oak orhirch hubs, hickory axles, and long leaf yellow pine box bottoms, these are the materials actually used. When an I HC w-agon reaches a farmer’s bam, that fanner has one of the best-wearing, easiest-running farm wagons that skilled labor can make or that money can buy. There is no need to speculate in buying a wagon. IHC wagons are made for nation-wide uses, with special features adapted to local conditions. '’Weber and Columbus have wornl gears.
