"^ H-nnil-cla^a Matter.
f M URSDAY> Oct. 2nd ID02
Tiik question of water works for
the town of Marion was lost last
week in an election held for that
purpose. A town the size of Marion
could easily atT^rd water works of a
modern kind and we are surprised
that the cnterpise lm* failed It is
asserted that the matter will be
brought up again.
In Deversity of Crops There's
Money.
The experience of farmers who
have tried it, shows that suecess
comes from diversifying crops. For
the farmers of Horry county to plant
all cotton, all tobacco, or all of any
thing else to the exclusion of the
food crops, means failure. All farmers
will agree with us that this proposition
is true Many have tested it
by actual trial to their actual loss.
While it pays to plant a variety
of the food crops, it pays too ?o plant
a variety of money crops so tar as
variety in this connection is possible.
We want to see the tobacco
acrcatrc in the county increased, but
wc would not advise our farmers to
quit cotton entirely. Have a variety
of money crops, so that if one
fail, you can fall back on the other.
This brings us down to the subject
we wish to impress upon our farm ers.
This subject is the matter of
tVllf'U flll'miiw. ! I I... ' -
111 tut* rouniy. me
raising of fruits and vegetables fur
nishes another money crop which
may be added to the tobacco and the
cotton. Strawberry planters made
money this year and they make
more the longer they plant them.
We want to see a growing interest
along this line until Horry county
shall be one of the leading trucking
sections of the State. All that is
needed, as in the case of tobacco, is
for the farmers to become interested
and give it a trial suflicient to demonstrate
to them that there is
money in it.
This cannot apply to the whole
county as our transportation fucili
ties now stand, but it does apply to
a large section around Conway and
along both sides of the Atlantic
Coast Ijine Railroad And the future
will sec other railroads passing
through Horry County.

Our hearts were saddened on the
12th inst , when the death angel
came, to the home <>f Mr. and Mrs.
John T. Watts and claimed their
brightest rose, little seven year old
Eddie, which was a great and sudden
surprise to us all. Little Eddie
was bright and cheerful, a child
that loved to go to Sunday School.
We can not understand the hand of
Providence, but we know that God
knows best and that lie had a good
and wise purpose in calling this
child so early. May the parents 1
feel that they have a tic in 1 leaven 1
that is ever calling and beckoning ((
to them, and may thev so live that ,
when they too are called, they will ,
be ready to meet, their child. i

Tlio communication in last week's !

reading, but 1 must eonfess lie went 1
too far back for most ot us 1 can
go back fifty years. 1 remember
going to that old log church at Cool
Spring where so many of our friends
have since been laid to rest. Jos. j
Parker and others made this circuit j
wnieh extended all over the county.
Thomas lieaty, a local preacher from
the Lake Swamp section would ride
down to Cool Spring and preach
on Saturday and Sunday very often.
1 never heard of his receiving any
pay.
Both the men and the women
dressed in ^suits made from cloth
spun and woven at home. It was
seldom you would sets any kind of
vchteklc to ride in to church. Bid
ing horseback was the order of the
day. At that the people seemed to
tie contented and independent.
Mortgages and Lions were not
known. Taxes were low, a common
one-horse farmer would pay about
3"i or -10 cents.
Such men as B. G. W. Grissctt
and Joel B Skipper went on horseback
to Columbia to represent thu ,
county in the Legislature for $3 per
day and mileage. What will llfty
more years bring about?
I presume Jill those old ministers
were Methodists. 1 only remember
hut two Baptist churches, one about
-mile. Last of Jordanville called
Salem and one near V'awley Swamp

. itsy was shocked and forgot
la- as a burglar. ''Iloldon! Don't

The pistol clattered on the Moor.
The man wheeled and pulled open
the door just as CJratsy dropped to
the floor. The man stared at Gratsy
"What do you want? What are
you doing here?"
"Well," answered CJratsy apologetically,
"1 guess I came to rob
you, but a man who is going to kill
himself ought not to mind that
much."
"Why did you interfcrfero? You
could have done what you wanted to
do all the easier if 1 had."
CJratsy shook his head. "A shot (
makes a noise and draws a crowd.
I might have had.trouble pel suading
them who did the shooting. And
besides," lie added,smiling, "there's
the little kid. You hadn't thought
about her, had you?"- George Hyde
