Some of the farmers are getting j better prices for their tobacco than ' others; but of one thing you may be ? sure and that is, that the grower, who i got from fifty to sixty or more cenis per pound for his weed stayed with i( r at the bam while it was being cured ! and did not allow himself to be called away while this most important part j of the crop was being done. * Many automobile parties have pass ; ed through Conway during the Last J fortnight on their way to spend vacation %t .

The number of repair shops in this county arc multiplying and this is, caused By the great increase of the number of automobiles in use by the people; and again let us say by the carelessness and lack of knowledge on i the part of the owners of machines so {that, for the latest trouble, it is necessary to can y the machine* to a garage for repairs. Men must learn more than they know now about taking good care of automobiles, and must be able to remedy a number of troubles themselves. o iORRY INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL.

A fine business course and eleven grades are offered at a lower rate than you can get elsewhere. If interested let us hear. ?S. C. MORRIS. Horry, S. C.---ad It o CALLING OFF SALES. The Conway Tobacco Board of Trade held a meeting on Wednesday night of last week to consider the congestion of tobacco accumulating at the freight depots here; and decided on account of the tie-up on the railroads to call off the tobacco sales for last Friday. The tobacco had been accumulating at the depot for some time owing to the scrcity of cars furnished by the railroad company for hauling it away and something had to be done to remedy this condition, hence there were no sales on Friday of last week. The regular sale took place at the warehouses last Thursday, and there were no more sales lint'l Mond?v of this week. NOTICE TOBACCO FARMERS.
