Florence already has j a bright little daily, and that is all 1 the town needs?all that it can sup- ( port, and the new concern is likely , to find that it has made a mistake. 1 * * * The question of building a bridge ; across the Waccauiaw at Conway for ' the convcnienco of citizens living on ] the other sido of the river has been 1 frequently mentioned in the past, | but no active steps were ever taken towards the establishment of this J enterprise. The subject was brought , up before the county board at its last meeting and a committee was 1 appointed by the board to ascertain 1 the cost of the bridge and report at \ the next meeting. When the board gets some idea of the cost, it will 1 likely make some proposition in . regard to tho matter. The bridge ' ? I can be built and it should be. i * \ * * 1 STHAWBBRHIE8 are beginning to ( ripen and the season promises well j for tho crop. Comparing the acreage of this year with last, it appears that the growing of strawberries is a growing industry here and Conway Jwill soon be up to any town in the v conntrv Rail t-.hi nnincr ??r>i ii? Cm- n-ii/.lr J j-r-e, r?..V iv. I- ?i v. r\ The Conway, Coast & Western Hail- 1 road will open up for this industry , two of the most fertile sections of \ Horry county, and sections of the 1 county in which the raising of truck j has been practically impossible on account of the lack of transporta- 1 tion facilities N * * * The letter of C. W. Urown giving J the result of a day's travel among the strawberry planters of the sec- j. tion around Tabor, gives an idea of the present proportions of the in- *| dustry in this section of the State. \ 1 Prom a few small plots of land near ^ some of the railroad stations a few r years ago, the acreage has grown so j that in many of the communities a t man may travel all day long looking at strawberry fields and hardly I have to travel out side of the limits of an ordinary sized neighborhood. The strawberry brought its thousands of dollars into the county last year, greater returns from the . standpoint of quantity than ever before. This year the income from t them will be much increased especially should the fine seasons pro- j vail. The quantity likely to go to nothern markets from Conway this 1 year promises to exceed past rocords. * 1 * * I Some steps arc being taken toward the putting in here of modern c internal improvements. When the 1 movement is once started it should V bo encouraged and never allowed to rest until Conway has all modern , improvements that the state of her ( treasury will hear. \\'c agree with some who have expressed themselves { on the snhipcr, th?f ? _?j? .....v vtKMUKge in \ne | ( firat thing that should claim the at 11 tention of those who have this matter in hand. Health is the first t consideration and there is not a < doubt that good drainage is necessa- ' ry to good health. But good drain age is not all that the town needs i and in the opinion of this paper good drainage is not all that she can afford to have. Start the work of draining the town just as soon as possible and begin the work of starting other improvements just as soon <14 nnaaiMo *1 ? s* j'vovn v/ yj i ( L 11U V I."

Mr. M. O. Powell planted two acres and a half week before last. Thoro wero others talking of planting last week. There was soino hail hero recently Cotton and tobbacco crops are going to be very small in this section this season, and we hone very little will be planted everywhere. Wo would be glad to see the farmers of tho South making their support at home, and let the merchants do the very best they can.

After consulting with Mr. Host, die county superintendent ?>f education, about the amount they would be required to raise, he thought he could easily raise it by Having and entertainment and eharg- | ug a small admission fee. lie knew full well that the people would patroni/.e such a scheme. The pains and training taken with the pupils demonstrated very dearly in every recitation, dialogue )l' tableau. Toy much cannot be said in praise of the children. Kacli and every one performed their duty with grace and ease, leaving 110 room for the would he critic. ICueh hoy and girl deserves applause for his or her indviduul self. Lhit Peter Sarghuin in Love, (CutT Sal) brought down the house. The dosing tableau: ''hock of Ages' was exceptionally pretty, it was represented by a young lady dressed in a (dreciun Itobc clinging to a , jross with her eyes turned Heaven ward, and another young lauy he liincl the curtain chanting the sweet bid hymn, '' I tuck of Ages Cleft for me." The people feel very grateful to Mr. linker for raising tie required imount for the library, with nearly 3nough over to moot the expenses of , Llio entertainment. Mr. linker Heaves very soon for other fields of , labor. His sojourn with u* has been very pleasant and wo regret lis departure. The young people of this neigh jorhood arc making heroic efforts to <ccp themselves abroast with the ] times, they are making new and | stronger efforts to equip themselves j [or tuo inevitable future, on the arms, in the church, and in nearly 3very walk of life.

Your correspondent started out t his morning at ib' it 7 i'r!o?' ? . iew some of the sira vut'i'i-y farms in tho noted T 'bo ii'i'ti.ii) inn ton 1 I ?o no is Liu.* sii a v oert\ la 111 as was ever cultivated in any country. First was Mr Frank Spivey's farm. He told mo lie had eighteen acres, and what I saw af his farm 1 pronounced as line as I had ever seen. lie is expecting to father MOO crates, will take 12.") hands to piek his crop; will pick 800 crates per day. I left him in food spirits and went on my way feeling benefitted for having seen his fine prospects. The next man's farm visited was Mr. Manual Fowler's. Mr. Fowler was not at home, so 1 pronounced his crop a food one and went on by dr. .!.C. Ward's berry patch and behold he was picking berries! My judgement of his crop was that he had done his doty to it and would l?e recompensed for his faithful labors. Next, was Mr. W. E. Johnson, who by the way, is an old man about 70 years old, who with his "better half" about, tho same age, has had had a hard struggle in life keeping the wolf away from the door. Ilut strawberries have done the work. 1 did not see the old gentleman, but I did see the old lady. She di.d not know ine but when I to.d her my name she told 11io to come right in. I had to thank her but I did want to go in and have a chat with her and enjoy some of her comforts. 1 passed on and was soon at Mr. ilrad Strickland's line patch. Ho has four acres and has bought 100crates and wants fifteen hands to pick his crop. ()ul\ ili .utyu half mile from his farm is Joe Johnson s farm, who has about two acres ir berries and they are line Any one wishing to know IlilVV 111 I Ml 1 t i V I t i '"111 irm'll. tlfillll. berries will do well to sec Joe for he is ;i most successful berry fat'tricr. lie will uoed twenty hands. The next place visited was Mr. L. I'<. Watts with two acres of line berries and lie will need about twenty hands. Henry Soles has a ine patch near Mi. Watts' and they show that Henry has not neglected them Henry is a successful grow;r. He will need about twenty lands. I will say right here that the only hi ng needful for the people through J.is section I have come through is duration to make good citizens, and I think if compulsory education is leeded any where, it is needed here. Hie people have the fine land and he will to work it and have the nonoy. but do not know the necessity of better education. ! would recimmcnd the Superintendent of Indication to puv this section a visit, f will pass on and soon find myself it Mr. Levi Grainger's farm. Levi s a good worker and his farm is in ine fix. He has four acres of fine , jerries and will need twenty-five lands. I found him in good heart, lie will have enough money to set liin even with his creditors and have iome left for a rainy day. 1 next came to Grant Grainger's lie and his wife were in their patch. His berries look fine. He has a naif an acre and will begin picking >11 the 17th. I was informed that John Granger had one acre of fine berries. I next came to Mr. C. A. Arnett's ind his son, J . C. Arnett, and, by the way, they are among llorrv county's good farmers Tlioy wore planting cotton. Their berries were linc^ and the.y will want ten hands. Mr. Arnett is losing his eyo-sight iiul deserves sympathy. I had heard much concerning Mr. S. S. Granger's strawberry patch, and It is farm was next visited. Ho lias one and one fourth acres as fine as I have ever seen His plants are loaded with berries He will get value received for his labors. Next was Mr. Sam Granger's place, and ho has a line prospect and will come out even with the world and have some left. Passing on I e one across about a two acre patch : ! was told it was on the Hon. J. Dcrham's farm. They are looking fine and will pay a dividend on the investment. The next strawberry farm visited was Mr. D. B. Watson's, arriving there just at 12o'clock and was invited into the dining room where 1 partook of a very good dinner which was very much enjoyed 1 pronounce Mr. Watson a model farmer and a neat manager who turns nothing without getting a profit. He too understands how to grow strawberries. Will gather 250 crates from two acres. lie speaks of diversifying his trucking interests. Me already has Irish potatoes planted and will plant lettuce next season. The next strawberry f a r m pissed was Mr. M. Floyd's. 1 did not call as 1 saw Mr Floyd was busy at work laying off some very straight rows for cotton or corn, I did not know which, but him or his mule are straight walkers. Mr. Floyd is a neat worker and has about two acres of strawberries and he will also receive a dividend. Mr. R. R. Currie also has about one half acres in strawberries. 1 did not see his patch as it is not near the road. I judged they were line as Mr. Currie is a neat worker. I next came to Mr. A. M. Lee's bo.-rry farm. He has one and one half acres of line strawberries, and will pick 200 crat?s. He has a fine farm and grows line corn and cotton and Is an Horry county model farm i:r. no was not in a good humor, 1 guess all fanners know about how Mr Lee felt as some mischievous pigs had been rooting up his young corn. It makes a man want to kill the little rooters. Mr. L. It. Watts alao has a half acre of line berries and will pick 200 crates. Mr. Luke Watts has four or live acres on his farm and they will also turn Mr. Watts a dividend. I pronounced them very line. Mr. Watts has a| line farm and can grow any kind of truck. Mr. S. W. Harrelson has about (ivo acres of strawberries and they are certainly line. lie has bought (100 crates but 1 think he has underestimated and will have to get 200 more, lie will need forty hands. Mr. Washington Fowler Imh six acres of berries and I pronounced them very lire. He has bought 500 crates and I thought he had] under estimated. He will need forty hands and will also reap value received for his labors. Mrs. Rachel Rhodes has one and three fourth asres of good berries and will also get a dividend She will get 200 crates, and will need J uuuv;i 11 iu.? | * very goou, as tne iuuu \<rtj ' poor and plants late sot. Hut tlioy have a future. E. S. Fowler has two acres of tino berries and will pick 250 rr.ite-* and will need twenty hands. W II Faulk has 'Inacres and .vill reap ag ??d . -a* vir K II F I O. HV.ll 1 UI vK'I'l ir \>'U l.i J.n i\ 1? o crates IJe needs twenty five hands He is another farmer who deserves all he can reap as he is an honest good man. This wound up mv observation* and I reached Tabor about 4:8" o'clock feeling materially benefitted by my days travel. The most of berry farmers visited ate in Horry county, some are in Columbus county, and some tho State line runs through, but the soil on each si Jo is the same and also the plants, and I believe the hearts of the peoble are the same. They socially the same not knowing where State line is. As I have said before education is what we need, and we must have it. I want to see the day when we can have a high school in our midst and North and South Carolina united in better education. Our boys and girls should be in school ten months in the year and two months picking strawberries is a gook vacation. I will come again. C. VV. Brown Cool Sprliiff.
