SWELLING IMPORTANT
FARM EQUIPMENT
x-.? 4
The dwelling is the headquarters
)4 the farm business. Chores are
lone before breakfast and often afjei
supper, the stock need close at.ention,
certain farm seeds are kept
n the house, the hired man may
deep * there, and t he woman folk^
jften take care of the poultry; thus
if. is almost essential that the house
-1 L - it-- 11
iciiauuuuiy ciuse 10 vne oiner
wildings, says the United States
Department of Agriculture.
The value of the house constitutes
x" important part of the real estate
raluc 40f the farm. On the higherpriced
cotton-belt farms the value of
.he dwelling represents from f> to
If per cent of the real estate value
A the farm, while in the eastern
part of the United States this percentage
is more commonly 20 per
cent tor over.
The beautifying of the yard by
shrubbery, flower beds, and a goid
awn involves the occasional use of
manure, the introduction of fertile
soil, the use of a team and of small
form tools, all of which are available
on the average farm.
o
Paint does not make the bam any
more than cloth^ makes the man. j
Nevertheless, a well-painted,' neat
aarn is -fairly- good evidence that
:hc owner is efficient and prospermia.

THK HORRY HERALD, CONY
10RRY NOT IN '
ON BRIDGE PROJECTa
hi
In an interview with Senator Hal ^
Buck, we are informed that Hor y
County will pay no part of the ^
ost of building the steel bridge at or
Hars Bluff Ferry. This is a move- ,-n
nent started by Mai ion, Florence, m
ind Charleston counties as stated in ?pj
i recent issue of the Herald. How m
>ver, it is understood that they pro>osed
that Horry pay her propor- W)
ionate amount and help them erec' ca
he bridge^ with the government aid
hey will receive, but the project did al]
lot go through as to Horry County. or
ca
WANT FEDERAL AID.
- - oi'
The state highway commission ha- icc
'tceived requests from Marion coun m
y for federal aid in the sum of v/:
'>^00,000 for the construction of a cq
nidge across the Pee Dee between uj
Florence and Marion counlies. Maim,
Florence, Dillon, Charleston e>
\nu Berkeley are interested in the*
project and estimate that the bridge
vill cost approximately $400,000. The av
Tquest for federal aid will be p'ac jn
id before the highway commis ion|cl
for action.

HAVE MADE MONEY. "s
Many of the merchants of this
county have made money during the (r
last year, more money than they
ever made before. The proper thing f<
for them to do is to invest it in!c<
more improvements of a public na- tl
lure which will result in time in fi
bringing them still more business.
The most important way for them
to spend it just now would no doubt
be in providing better facilities for V
taking care of the tobacco crop of I:
the county. s

FOR COLORED EMPLOYEES.
o
Conway Lumber Company has per ii
fected the plans for the erection of c
a new building on property belong- e
ing- to them behind their offices, not i
far from the public square, and e
which is intended to take care of t
about fifty coloied employees of the r
mills. The General Manager, Mr. y
H. W. Ambrose, has found some i
difficulty in obtaining colored labor t
on account of the lack of hotels or c
boarding house accrhmodations for c
these hands at Conway. The build- t
ing will be of some size in order to t
take care of this number, and it will t
be started and carried to completion t
as soon as possible. 1

NO BLAME CAN !
ATTACH TO THEM
In some parts of the County ]/
there seems to be a wide spread notion
that Horry's Representatives In
.the Legislature are responsible for
the passage of the general stock law;
cr at least, that they caused Horry
County to be put under that law,
while there are some that place the ?
blame on Senator Hal L. Buck. The
Herald interviewed Messrs. W. W.
Kv. . . L. Mi5hoe, as well as
Seaato.* Buck, and has kept in touch
with them during all the time that
the bill was pending. It is a mis- K
taken impression in the minds of the
people that the members of the
House or the . State Senator could
have prevented the passage of this
general law. In the Senate Mr.
| Buck had Horry County exemnted
from tlie law and the law then went
to the House for concurrence in the 0
numerous amendments the Senate (
had made and the House refused tVm f
Senate's amendments thus killing v
i the amendment that Senator Buck ?
| had made exempting out County. u
This put the matter in a general con *
I ferencc committee composed of memj^
hers of both bodies, and they re- <<
' jected the exemption of Horry Conn I
, ty and thus the law went through. 1
[and Horry will he subject to the t
Igeneial law January 1st, 1921. W'-.ilo 1 (
i many constituents blame our Ken-11
resentatives for this law, the Her ' \
aid does not hesitate to say that t , i
I '
| is unjust to place any blame up. n \

representatives from the other c.un 1

?aid to be Promised to W. J.
Benson, the Plumbing
Repair Man.
The new building' which is to be
ccupied by tho Farm Implement
onipany will he perhaps the largest
loor space of its "kind in tho hardware
business in this section of th *
5tate, as it. has a floor space measiring
about 44X120 foot, running1 all
he way from Third Avenue to the
illey donated to the public from the
>Ul Courthouse site.
The wall of this building have
>eon set inward a short distance
rom the front to enable the owner
>f the property to put in brick walls
atcr on. when materials are more
plentiful and to take out the temporary
walls with which tho building
is now being finished, covered
width galvanized covmgated metal.
It is stated that, another budding
of similar make will he erected on
the adjoini1 g property and will b,x
oc upied by \V. J. Benson, the
plumber; which building will consist
of a fiout section to be used as
a shew room for bath room fixtures
and supplic-:, with a rear part whero
his shop work and pipe cutting will
b? conducted.
ENFORCE F1UK LIMITS.
One important thing in any town
is the enforcement of fi?e limits
within which no building- c:m bo
erected unltss covered on top an 1
sides by intlamable materials. I"
large cities there are whole sections
composed of old buildings made of
wood and while they may have escaped
a destruction for fifty year*
or nunc, yet whenever they do catch
on lire they spread, it rapidly and
sometimes nearly the whole city
goes into- ruins.
