The Conway tobacco market will come to a close on Friday September 18th, after the most successful year it has ever had. The European war only affected the market temporarily.

The various grounds on which the election has been contested were stated in this paper in an article several weeks ago. On account of the high prices the farmers will have to pay for what they buy, and the low prices they will have to take for what they have to sell, it will be absolutely necessary to conduct their business affairs very carefully, and things they can do with out will have to be cut out of their purchasing list.

W Commander Sellers of Gallivants Ferry was in Conway last Thursday for the first time in the past twenty years. It is stated that Mr. Sellers lives within twelve miles of Conway, and he has been in good health and able all of the time to attend to his regular work. His reason for staying away from the county seat for all that length of time would be hard to explain, and Mr. Sellers has not undertaken to do so himself, so far as we know. Although the Legislature of this State has passed a law making it a criminal offense to pass a check and obtain something of value for it, the check being drawn 011 a bank where the drawer has no funds at the time toj meet it, still there are many who Der-1 sists in violating the law openly and seemingly without regard for the law I on the statute books. In nearly every newspaper you pick up is found instances of this violation of the law, and there is quite a lot of it that happens locally that never appears in the newspapers at all. TK? "farmer's best plan for next " year is to raise plenty of meat and <grain. It will be worth its weight in j gold over in Europe, while there would be no demand for cotton. Miss Virginia Gasque, of Mullins. ^ S. C., who has been spending some time at Myrtle Beach, and near Horry passed through Conway last week on ( her way home. . Conditions across the water are bad in relation to food supplies nd will get | worse as the war goes on. War tends to prevent the shipment of wheat from surplus European countries tc those which need imports?for example?from Russia to France, and a famine in France would seem inevi table. The office of Magistrate W^H Chest nut has issued fourteen warrants against violators of the whiskey laws during the past two or three weeks, and these warrants were placed in the ( hands of the sheriff for service. A number of them had already been bound over to the court of general sessions last Monday. This all shows that the authorities have it in for the blind tigers in various parts of the county, and they will no doubt be put out of business by the campaign the authorities are waging against them. A letter received from Sumter M. Johnson of Garnier's, Fla., last Sat^day states that Mr. Johnson, who is one of Horry's Pee Dee boys, is still among the land of the living, doing I well on the Gulf of Mexico, and eating | plenty of iish in that semi-tropical j country. Mr. Johnson is a brother of ^ Messrs. J. Monroe Johnson and Italy 1 W. Johnson of this county. He has I | many friends who will be glad to 1 know that he is doing well in his ad- I opted State. * There will he no bread famine in the United States this year. The largest wheat crop in history has just been ; harvested, and according to the Unit- j ed States Department of Agriculture j the total production is about 911.000,000 bushels. Horry farmers wc hope will he able to buy their share of this immense crop, but as to the ' price they will have to pay owing tc the conditions brought about by the war, is more than we can say. It isfeareel that the price will be high Still there neeel be no fear of a breae famine here or anywhere else in this country. Card of Thanks.
