Conway Savings Bank, I Conway, S. C. I ma; HANK THAT APPUIXIATI08 YOUR ACCOUNT I Fob Printing Done Here a A Blessing to Horry . J| Mr Editor. I have read much in the dear old uculd about tue u? ' fence law. and 1 do not want t<> tred any oot'o toes about it, but 1 would like to tfive my opinion the voters of Horry about it. In the lirst place we see each year inaoy nun, women and children tfo intr frc in Horry to Dillon,McCall or other places to get work to do, and hen we are cursiig and wishing that there were some cotton and oil 1 mills in Horry so ibat wo could tjet ft something to uu and #et a ?ood rnarII' net for our little rniie of produce; I and BO we #o on cursit# our merchants for tfiviiii/ us such low prices for our cotton and cotton setd. We never stop to think thai it is largely our sault thai conditions are such as they are, and here comes the thought. We have us good farming land iu Horry, and, as a whole, oetter. as can be found any where jlse if it was only brought under cultivation, but we spend all our winter trying to patch up a little old fence and put up a few bundles A wire to harvest a qjurt of corn and a bundle of fodder as the fruits of our year's labor. We do not dig a new diich and seldom clean out an old one, nor dig up any stumps, or clear any new land at ail \\ e still k,M? g on to our old fence and curse the merchant and see our people go e'sewnere to get employment: 1 .a;nk it best to put our shoulders to i.i c wheel of progress and push old I Horry out of the mire of prejudice the ell" spring of ignorance and narrow miudecltiess. Lets tear down d >wn the old fence and spend oui tune and money in clear.ng land so that we can raise enough cotton, and supplies for at least home consumption, to induce tbo manufacturer to come into Horry and rut up a cotton factory and an oil mill. By way of ill -stration there is a tract of land of about 1200 acies lying between Maple swamp and Kingston lake which is as good farming land as can be found in Horry that vtouiu produce a hundred bushels of corn, pea3 and potatoes to the acre or two bales of cotton per acre thai is lying in waste for lack of cultiva tion and upon which there is no timber?not even enough poles to I Ki.l 1/1 n. hmr tlfln. |J u " "" r-> x I will concede that there is more B woods land just now in Hosry than there is cleard land, and it will remain so as Ion# as there is a little bit of old rotten fence to keep us so poor that we can't clear it. Let's nare the no fence law or quit curs in# our merchants and take their y pricei for our products and never I make an effort to better our oondif tion, for rib side meat is 15 cents p ir pound in Conway now.
