The people were without any coal and the Conway Lumber Co., had to discontinue the sale of board ends to the general publie in order to have enough to supply the hands of the company. Partners living near Conway soon learned that there was a ready market for ad kinds of wood here, and the condition was not so had after all about seeming fuel to tide over the cold weather. m MID I U UUEl We wish for you a ha;: many blessings that we have I In looking forward to fo be gained by producing its i the Department of the Governn brought upon us by the war th; We believe that the pn ducing our food supplies.

This opinion was expressed yesterday in a tel eg ram sent to The World* and The Tribune, New York newspapers. The telegram sent by.Governor Manning I in response to queries from these two waiKis read: 1 "Have no doubt that South Carolina will adopt prohibition amendmcnt. The benefits of liquor reatric* tion adopted by the State have, been great and generally recognized. Thi.; makes the next stop easy." It is p'obable that Governor Manning will recommend that no night sessions be held during th0 session of the legislature to relieve fuel shortage. The chief executive explained that such a recommendation will like ly be embodied in his opening message of recommendations. While in Washington the last few days Governor Manning was assured that rifles for the regiment of State troops would bo available by January 1 '). The type of rifl0 with which this regiment will be equipped is the 750 K rag-.J orgenson. The governor talked over the coal situation with Dr. 11. A. Garfield. The State's immediate supply of coal is much below the quantity needed. It was sue vested that old <>rnss:t itv< along the railroad tracks might do much to relieve the present stringency. S , o T. F. Cooper was here one day reef ntly. J. A. Cartrette was among those visiting Conway a few days ago. If by partly substituting wood onefourth of the coal burned by favmoia and one-tenth of ti e coal burned ir\ villages could ho saved, the coal would amount to nearly 3,000,00> tons, or between 0">,000 and 70,000 car loads. Farmers in Northern and Eastern States could make this saving pos% sible by drawing on their woodland* for winter supplies, according to a circular just issued by the United States Department of Agriculture. m m 9 m w J.

Yours fo Horry I)ruj THE GROW SDSAfi SITUATION STILL NOT BELIEVED The supply of sugar in Conway and other places in Horry County ran lower and lower during the past month until last week for some time only ten cents worth could be bought. Several weeks ago the quantity which one person might buv was limited to a certain number of pounds per week Those who had been used to having plenty of this commodity all their lives felt the scarcity and showed it. All last week ten cents worth could be bought at the store of Burroughs & Collins Company and no moio. This week it was announced that the Grocery Store of the Conway Bargain House would sell two pounds to each customer at the price of 12 1-2 cents per pound. Groc.erymen here who had ordered sugar from their wholesale houseweek after week got tired of waiting for th(? sugar to come. There is *\ shortage of it in this section of tlv country and the shortage will hardly be received for some time to come. The trouble in relation to sugar will perhaps get the people ready for year for 1918.
