Tub writer of an article in this
issue names the day that he thinks
would suit for a mas* meeting here
on the subject of a new court house
and jail. The paper is open to suggestions
aud if a better day can be
suggested those who are interested
would be glad to know it. County
pride should bo enough to convince
any man of the need of these new
buildings. Of course the county
will have to sell bonds to raise the
money, and some will try to find
an objection in the very small tax
that would result from the issuing
of the bonds. No ono will mind
this when they lean how small it
will be.

Conway has not reached the
zenith yet of her building boom;
for cvory week or two there are
items in the paper making uote of
new structures in the business portion
of the town or of pretty new
cottages in the residence portion of
the town. Tho enormous growth
hero during the last few years is
gratifying and so mauy signs pointing
to a continuance of growth and
prosperity is more gratifying still.
There is no reason why the popula^
tiou and wealth of the town should
not keep on increasing and doubling
itself within the space of a few
years. With such a large, prosperous
and fertile country to tack it up
Couway connot fail. All that is
nesossary is energy, faith and public
spirit on the part of her business
men,

Tiik tobacco planters will do
well to heed this year the advice so
often give them to pay particular
attention to the quality ef the weed
they produce. Those who have
heeded it iu the past have found
that the only way to make much
money out of the crop is to produce
a line grade. When prices
were so low a varp op *u
? J VI VIT V 111C
producer of a fine grade of tobacco
made money where hie neighbor
fell in debt for his fertilizer. I"
raising tobacco us in everything
else the old maxim applies that J
"Whatever is worth doing at all is
worth doing well." The first re.
quisite to produce a fine grade tobacco
is knowledge of the right way
to handle, euro it, and grade it.
The watchful farmer can soon learn
all that he needs to know by experience
*

An attractive program has been
arranged for May 10th and is published
in full in another column.
While the occasion is a reunion of
ex-confederate soldiers, yet it is designed
not only for there pleasure
but for all who will come aud lend
a hand. The sons, grand sons,
daughters, grand-daughters and
friends and relatives of the veterans
are expected to be presents aud add
to the occasion by their presence.
A basket picnic appears on the program
to take place at 2 o'clock and
everybody is requested to bring
well-filled baskets so that their will
be plenty for the feast. The farmers
will need a day off from the
hurd labors of the season, and they
cannot spend it in a better way.
A large crowd is expected aud from
indications and expression on all
sides, there will be no disappointment
in this respect. Oome along
and help it out all you can. Noth- i
ing is bigger than a big time.
WMHI
Farmers very busy. Somo are
working out their young corn and
cotton. Some still planting. Still
some others arc transplanting tobacco.
J. \V. Alford who planted cotton
on the 7th inst. also E. D. Causey
who planted on the lOtii., both have
a good stand.
Seasons are favorable here for tho
later planted cotton.
G. A. Causey has lately built a
new tobacco barn and has his plants
about set for growing. Others raisiug
tobacco in this section are
Messrs Hcrrin, and Young Bros.
D. O. Causey, a young and progressive
farmer of this section has a I
new dwelling nearly completed on
the tract of land he bought some
months ago. This may be of interest
to some young lady.
Weddings ought to be cheap for
there are plenty of young men and
women. Notaries arc generally handy
and willing to perform their part
at very reasonable rates?often free.
Those who have never had a wedding
of their own don't know the
real good in thein.
Lot me say a few words about our
public schools. Some may agree
with mo while others, of course may
difTcr. But let them differ or agree
that is their right and privilege.
We were not all made to look and
think just alike even if we were
made by the same Divine hands and
of the same "stufl'.''
The common schools of our country
are of course intended for the
masses and good they are. While
they wore first intended for the
poor, but they still 1111 that function
as much as ever and more by taking
other functions also to perform.
As the writer thinks they should
be, would bo plenty of them within
easy roach of every poor man who
has children, and run very much on
the same principles as the law now
provides, and in addition to them,
build as many as one graded school
in each township and have it as a
township school, apart from tho district
school, with seperatc trustees
and bo free to every pupil of school
age in the Township in which it is
located. 1 mean advanced pupils/
say from the 4th to 6th grades upwards.
Then ask our legislators to pass a
mild and compulsory education law,
requiring that ail children between
O 1 i ?? ? % ?.
niu ugus 01 o siihi is or 11 years snail
attend school at least twenty days
each year, provided no child shall bo
under this act, required to go over
(2i) two and one half miles to roaoh
school, Also that private school
shall bo satisfactorily accepted as
public school.
Have the township graded school
governed by township trustees spb ject
to the county Iioard of Education
the same as the district trustees
are.
If others have opinions to express
let them do so for my ideas may not
all be the best and if any one has
better I'll gladly accept them.
We all may gain by exchange of
ideas as well as by exchange of
goods.

Editor Herald:?No doubt many
of your readers would like to hear
through the columns cf the Herald
from the Horry boys who are in
college here, all seem to be doing
wen.
They should feel greatly enllnised
to know that Horry has as many
Ixrys or more in college hero than
any other county in the State. We
have eleven boys and several girls
from Horry in college here. 1 don't
think there is another county in the
State that furnishes one-half that
number. Five a"e attondinging
Draughon's business college, which
gives one o; the best courses in the
world,
The peop'o of Horry should be
exceedingly proud of having so
many enterprising young men here,
but more so to know that one of
the best colleges in the world is
under the management of Prof. EI.
R.Todd from our own county.
What he has accomplished for the
last few years should greatly inspire
all of our boys to higher and
nobler aims.
Quite a number of people who are
not personally acquainted with Horry
have a very low estimate of it
from various stories that have been
told, but let others say what they
please about our good old county,
but still it is coming. Horry boys,
let's wake up and use the golden ooportunitics
that we have. Hot's
prepare ourselves for doing better
work.
I wonder how many of our boys
will try to improve their talents for
the. next few years? We can all do
better, so let us use our opportunities
in the best way, and sooa our
possibilities will bo brighter.

Some of our farmers will begin to

Corn is looking as well as can be
expected, remembering tho recent
cold and wet weather.
Cotton is beginning to show itself
and a plenty of it. I really fear
some of our good fanners will be
surprised whon they realize the true
rejjort of acreage planted in 1905.
Owing to a breakdown at B. F.
Uarretson's mill, many were disappointed
last Friday. The corn came

It has been some time siuoo 1 saw
anything from the northern part of
our county.
As I soo it, there is more public
building than thorn is money for. 1
do not object to anything that is
beneficial to the county, but J am
with the "candidate" as to the public
affair.
In regard to the bridge across the
Waccamaw river, I think it would be
unjust to tax the whole county for
the bridge. If the people on the
eastern side of the river would nut
the thirteen hundred dollars they
spend going to and from Conway, 011
| building the bridge, jt would be an
asy matter to get the briijgo built.
I notice that the farmer this year
' is divided his crops into tobacco,
i-ujn. corn and potatoes, so as to
meet the low prices if they should
happen.
