THURSDAY, AUG. 21, 1919 One man can now take one ma chine and do as much as would take a dozen men to do formerly. There are flaws in the character of the best of men and women. Look for them and you arc sure to find them. o The success brought to many a man by hard work and close application to his job, has too often been attributed to good luck by others. o In taking care of an automobile or other piece of machinery, it is all in knowing how. Better learn and find out how or you will find that ignorance will cost you dear. o j IThe best remedy for the high cost ot living is to be found in governmental regulation. There must be * something to restrict the use of power in the hands of a few. o The government is now , going after the packers who are alleged to have formed n trust, especially in the matter of controlling the purchasing of cattle and hogs. ; . ., o ^ The boll weavil will finally put AM Allf A "f l\1UMMnCO in f Uio 1AM I V UllUll UUt VJX UUOIliV/Oil III UIIO ovv UVU l the same as it has done in other sections of the cotton growing belt, unless of course some remedy is found that will kill the insect. ? _o The Herald hopes to be able to make many improvements in its plant in the next few months, and it will be the aim of the management to make each and every improvement result in a better paper for the people and in turning out more and a greater variety of printing. It is in the power or every subscriber to help us do this. Pay up your own subscription, tell others what a good paper you are getting and induce them to take the paper. In this way we can render mutual aid in this matter. o SEEING, YET ARE BLIND. The same thing is the matter with many tobacco growers that is the matter with the people in other ways of making a living; they think that they know it all to begin with and the result is they never learn anything, They have their own ideas fixed up in their heads to such an extent thai they are prejudiced against their owr experience and refuse to make chang es even when their own expcrionc< would dictate that it would be best This is a bad condition that we ar< sorry to say prevails with many poo pie no matter what they are under taking to do. The kind of a man w< like is the one with the open min< ready to take new ideas and try the.i out if they prove to be of advantage ready to look into the essence o things for himself and by seekinj and hunting out the fundamental? make changes to the great good o himself and others.

HORRY COTTON MEN | MUSTJOWMOVEMENT| Those at the head of the movement to solicit wide membership in the South Carolina cotton growers Association, do not mean to spare either time nor money in placing the matter before all of the farmers of the State, and they arranged a speaking program with some of the best speak er* in the State to address the farmers at all of the County seats. ; August 20th was the time appointed for the speaking at Conway and the speakers allotted for the occasion were Hon. T. J. McLeod of Bishopville and Col. D. A. Spivey of Conway. The Association is now calling on all of the cotton growers all over South Carolina to come in and ioin the Association and make themselves parties to this great movement. They now know that by coming together they can carry out plans which will result in holding a great part of the cotton crop each year off the market; and oven those few farmers who will he obliged to sell at once can be taken care of by the formation of a corporation to take the cotton and advance money on it while holding it for the farmers. The campaign for new mem I hers will be conducted for the period published elsewhere in this paper. If you are a farmer and expect to raise any more cotton, put yourself to extra trouble to join the Association, and help all you can in bringing reHAS BAD FOOT.
