THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 1918 Land is increasing in value in Horry County as more and more of it is cleared. o This country is keeping an eye on Mexico, and it is just as well that it does so. o Something will be doing on the "West crn front before the Summer is g< ne. o Germany may hate this country even now, but nothing to compare to what it will be when this country shall have shown the German people what they actually have against them in this fight. o It is not good policy to meddle witl the other man's business; and it is also important to keep the other man out of yours. The allies arc now all working together and have one head from which plans for the war will come. This ;s the way to work to the best advantage; and it will bear fruit before tlu year is out. o I Russia will prove all that Germany can handle although there may be no longer any Russian armies to tackle. o The United States have become powerful in the last century. After this war shall have been won the mind can hardly conceive the great things that may tak?- palee in d"velopment here. 1 o Scarcity of labor and the high cost of building material will lessen building enterprises for the period of tinwar. 4) Even men of genius will do foolish things. Henry Kurd's peace party Is it fair sample. There is some differ-' ence in stopping this war and in planning a Kord factory. K< rd found this out. No matter what else the Herniu may do, and no matter what may b" thought of the paper: there is on?thing sure, and that i. that this paper has enlisted to do what it can t win this war. If you can suggest anything the paper may do to further that object, your suggestion- will he considered. If you are. under the impression that Germany is too far off across the seas to do us any harm; remember that if the United States can send armies to Krance, Germany <*oui(l sonn armies nere. wake up to the danger today and put all that you can do against the Kaiser. ~o No county in the State is now developing more rapidly than this. Time has been when the forest covered great stretches of Horry County with no farms to break the landscape for miles and miles. This is all passing away as the lands are being cleared up and planted to crops. Fields dot the ' great tracts in numberless rotation in any direction yon g?* # * "W" r- ??T1 .J1 >' 1 1YEEP your good healthmenace to h or young is < Dr. Cal Syrup 77/^ Perfea is recommended as for constipation?mi action and free from drugs.

I?tick sent a telegram to Hon. K. 1>. Smith, and the following letter received by Mr. Puck from the government bureau, i gives the latest information on the subject: March 12, 11) IS. Mr. H. L.

Smith, with ; reference to the delivery of nitrate of I soda to farmers in your section, has j been referred to this Department for | attention. Ownig to war conditions, it was im- i possible to secure tonnage to transport to this country sufficient nitrate : to make complete delivery of all ni- j trate needed during the months of 1 March and April. Shipping arrange- ! mcnts are encouraging for deliveries j after that time. In order to make the fairest and most equitable distribution of the small quantity available for immediate distribution, this Department dedecided to appoint in each county of South Carolina a special distributor, to whom all nitrate for that county would he consigned, and who would j make distiibution with reference to' the immediate needs of farmers. The ! distributor for Horry County is M \ j W. L. Richardson, Conway, S. C. The i proportionate allotment for Horry County will bo shipped according to i the instructions given by Mi*. Richardson, who will deliver the nitrate to the farmers. We expect to begin ship ment to him this week. Yours very truly, ?D. S. Murph, Specialist in Cotton Market in j*- and Warehouses. <?
