THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1919 The successful farmer wants good tools to work with. o This country depends upon the farmers more than on any one claus of people. o The next war will he with Mexico, unless things down there change very radically before long. o You can steal the good name of a j man who has one and do him more damage than by taking his money. o The price of cotton went up it?- ! cently and many fanners sold their j cotton which they had been holding for a long time. o I Horry farmers arc producing more ' and more eveiy year. "Farms are j broadening out and the lands make ; more and more per acre. j 7 o j Horry County is now on the very j s edge of becoming one of the greatest I x farming sections of the South-East- ' ern part of the United States. o j When Ave do the best that we can j it is all that even angels could do. j Kilt wVion do u.-,' do our Tlml I V is the question that is never answer- , t< c<t- 1" o |ii The farmers want to hear fvomjh those who have farmed when itjn comes to teaching them something. | a The farmers know that experience is j v the best teacher of men. 1 o v We all want much more than wejh get in this world and none of us will jh be able to take anything with us.

It has been found that it pays to furnish information and experimental work in the encouragemeent of thejj DESIRE TO IMPROVE. Some men appear to have no desire for improvement. His kind never inVented anything. Others have it at times and at o|thcr times apparently have. Tost It, Borhaps there are a few who have never felt any desire at all along that line in their lives; but all their lives have been content, to run on in the same old ruts without the least change in their mannet of doing a job or running their general business. It appears to be something that is capable of cultivation. By exercising that which wci have, the incentive is' incrtnised. By allowing what we have1'"to; .1 remain'' idle, we finally lose the littld that weonce had. The value of a single moving spirit who has the "spark" in a community cannot be overestimated. One lone man feels the flame in his breast and goes ahead with only such aid as others will render him and he tried to improve his condition and that of the others around him, either directly or indirectly.

EDW^ PLANTERS WAREHOUSE, YARBC 101S. On this basis, the farmers of * South Carolina lost on their 191S crop of 1,500.000 bales the staggering sum of $11,175,000 account damage to bales of cotton left in the \\ eather. On Mr. Wanna maker's estimate, the loss per bale for "country damage" amounted on the average to 11.5 pounds worth $f).45 at Hi) cents. The average cost of warehousing iml insuring a bale of cotton against fire for six months , in the State warehouse system is less than half this average loss per bale on the entire 191$ crop caused by "country lam age." However, the avevntre "pnnnrru i lamage" loss per bale on the 1918 nop is not a ftiir index to the actual | r.cy on individual lot?, of weather ^ I a marred cotton as is shown by tlm following instances which have lately 'ome to the attention of Commissioner Smith. farmer -recently sold 16 bales of ;ott'on which were left in the weathir after ginning. The >rotten, weatli?r damaged cotton in this lot amount la. to 2,30f) pounds or over four rales. The loss in money amounted 0 $690 at 30 cents a pound. This 'armor could have warehoused his 16 rales in almost any warehouse in the state system, had there 'been room "or it, for six years for $690 and at . I he same time it would have' been ; mured against fire. A second farmer disposed of 60 rales of cotton a week or so ago on vhich the "country damage" amount 'd to 7,500 pounds, a loss at 30 cents ; 1 pound of $2,250. He might have >ut his 60 bales iri a Stale warehouse, thus protecting it from the ! veathcr and against fire, kept it , here for the six months it lay rotin g in his yard and saved at least i 1,818 of the $2,250 he lost. Mr. Smith pointed out yesterday hat with the removal of all governnent restrictions on construction h< re was no reason now why farcers or groups of farmers could not mild either plantation or community carehouses and put them into the ?late warehouse system, thereby tvoiding "country damage" on the 919 crop. o The boll weevil lias appeared in astern Ham berg County.

E H 1J S W i I Press Gives Much Attention to i U. S. Senate's Publicity \ Move London. ? Secret negotiations at Paris and the non-publication of the treaty with Germany have been denounced here so often that the action of the United States Senate in making publir- thr? text of the treaty has been given much prominence in the newspapers. It has been given sympi thetic comment by the London press, there being in some cases sharp criticism of Preident Wilson. Even the radical Daily News, Mr. Wilson's warmest admirer among London Journals, says: "It must be unhappily admitted that the President in his personal conduct of the task of peace-making, has made many mistakes. It is still possible he may recover his position with Congress and the American people but it is a most desperate hazard." The Graphic regrets "the British j parliament does not show any sign of' being equally as independent as the United States Senate." The Post, which is an opponent of the League of Nations, assures Am- j eiica that there " is as much suspi- i cion of the League here as in Amer- j ica." ?? - . i -OTOPPING AND SUCKERING TOBACCO. Clemson College. ? Tobacco, says Superintendent R. E. Currin of the! Pec. Dee Experimnt Station, in Ex- j tension Bulletin 43 on Tobacco Culture, grows very rapidly under prop- j er conditions and soon forms seed- j pods that have to be pinched out. j This is called "topping." As uniform maturity is desired, >t is well to allow a large portion of! the seedbuds to form, perhaps now and then allowing one to bloom, be- J fore commencing to pinch them out. Experience is the only teacher in this case. Taking everything into consideration, it is advisable to top "too high" rather than "too low." In other words, it is best to leave too many leaves on the plant to ma2S! oal instead of wood this *id shortage of labor, necCoaJ is the more ecoi I it economical coal. r "siso Manv of t.V?o (liu - * ? * %/ "* - ?

On ordinary land | with ordinary fertilizer, from twelve to sixteen leaves may be left. On richer or more highly fertilized land, more leaves should be left to mature. After topping has commenced, it should, be .continued until all of the plants are topped; and, as the aim of topping is to get the tobacco to mature uniformly, the small, yellow and late plants should be topped lower than the early and more vigil' . orous ones. As long as topping is begun, "suckers" will form in the axils of the leaves. These suckers must not bn allowed to develop, and:thust be pulled off as fast as they get large enough, or else the tabacco plaifts* will be retarded in their full development of leaves It is surprising to the "novice" to see how fast these suckers will grow.
