We opened our new Dry Goods Store on the 15th of

the service we have tried to render them and have been
^ kind enough to express this appreciation by giving lis an inft

Jy For September we have put in a good stock of ready
to wear, for men, women and children.
Our underwear department is in shape to fill your
needs fcr fall and winter.
Shoes are considerably lower than they were last winter
and we have a good stock of solid leather shoes for the
v. hole family.
Our buying is not done in car lots, we buy frequently
\\&r\l at right prices and find it pays handsomely as this gives us
I new, fresh, up-to-the-minute styles a'! the time.
Our desire is io furnish the merchandise that is needed
jmjr by the working man and his f^m ly.
! Good, reliable, staple and dependable merchandise that
will give good service.
Jfcr Quick sales, small profits, rapid turn over, of all lines
is o'.ir mot.o. Service means more to us than the individiV
ual profit on each transaction.
As annojnceci last week we did not buy our stock when
Jr prices were at the high peak they ^reached last spring and
jr summer. Our stock was shipped since the price reductions
you have been reading about have taken p ace so what you
jmnt buy fpom us !s bought right.
m No matter how the National political situation looks,
all of us have to have clothes to wear and while others, are
in the political field let us work hard and apply ourselves to
getting ready for the winter that is soon to come by care^^11
fully harvesting our crops and carefully spending.what mon^^11
ey we have to spend where a dollar goes the furtherest.
Nice thinns for the whole family, to wear.

One million dollars paid out for
tobacco by the Conway Tobacco Market
this season.
Cotton farmers will do well to hoed
l . . . . . . . . _
the warning- of the American Cotton
Association and prepare to fight for
a living price for cotton by arranging
storage warehouses at Conway,
Aynor and Loris, under the supervision
of the State Cotton Association.
Mr. W. 0. Davis, farm demonstration
agent will tell you how
tins can be done.
Many substantial farmers and business
men of the county paid us a
visit last week and congratulated us
on the part we are playing in trying
to give the Horry trade the
right merchandise at living prices.
Take good care of every lock of
cotton. Keep picking well up, gin
the cotton as soon as dry enaugii
and if the price is not right store in
a good, sate place, don't leave it
around the ginneries to lose in
weight and quality.
Sweet potatoes are coming in and
bring a fair price on the market.
This crop should bo made of value
to our County if our farmers would
plan heu>es or proper curing, storing
and shipping.
FOl/R CO1 TON COMMAND VENTS
By B. Harris, Commissioner of Agricultu
re.
Four commandments will have to
be kept by the farmers before they
will be able to put the p:ic> on
their own cotton, which is t 'eir
?1-4. .i? .
ii.Uiu tu uu :
1. Diversity . 2. Organize and Cooperate.
3. Build Wa-chouses. 4.
Have a Fund.
The farmers must diversify their
crop5* to fhd-.rxt^nt t" "a nv*
must be self-nustainirg. Whrn they
<lo this, the cotton crop is half f nancr.d.
They must organize and co-operate
not alonP with other farmers, but
with the merchants and bankers and
business men. Get them to join the
American Cotton Association. Why?
Because the cotton crop i< th* money
crop, the backbone of all finance,
all prosperity, all business, all progress,
all improvement, all e<'ucati ri
of the South, and always will be. It
is ud to every man, no matter w' at
his business, to get behind the cotton
crop an-1, make it sell for a
profit to thp grower over the cust {f
production. If this is done, and
when it shall he done, the South wi'l
bo the richest country in th? world
for it is the most res mrccful. Firal
success can be attained onlv bv 1ha
t* Mil
complete organi' ation 01 ui in ;
prople of the South.
Now, as to warehouses. These
should be throughout the South in
number sufficient to take up the
slack in the crop. Then receipt can be
issued that should be regarded as
negotiable scrip in any country. No
better collateral can be had. I cannot
say much about any of these
points without repeating much that
has already been said but it is a lesson
which bears repeating, and the
people should learn it perfectly.
The fourth commandment which I
wish to urge upon the people is to
organize a cotton fund to let out
loans upon cotton; this fund rot to b^
a general banking proposition, but
to protect cotton. For when a bale is
put into a warehouse it must stay
there until the spinner will pay the
price set for it by the American Cotton
Association.
If the farmers will adhere strictly
to th^se four commandments they
will prove to be the only means by
which the fattners can "cinch" their
prosperity atfer freeing themselves
and furture generations from povertv
and illiteracy. If the farmers will
observe strictly these four general
principles and put business methods
behind their agriculture, they will
never again see short staple cotton,
middling and above sell or less than
fiftv cents per pound.
Wli n n tknen four thincrs are done
' T ?l^?l v? ?V? n
tho South will como into her own
and will in ton years bo one of the
richest countries in the world . I am
greatly in earnest about the orprani)
zation of g cotton bank. Tho American
Cotton Association ennnot
round out it* usefulness without doin^
this. Such a bank could hMp
- T v I*10 'oca' banks to^yjaflce ^istvc s
I ? #otton, for that is tfio^cjttdrt'/ iffliif t|
' ' < v v.' tyty&v8 controls the ItffejL It J if flpf j
i ' > factor in A| {
* % must have it on #itst side tatf^pi.
Such a cotton bank could make it pos
sible to protect a farmer from having
his loan called, and nayment
forced, so as to turn this cotton ovor
to the bear sorculator whenever he
wants it. The cotton situation ?ann.
t ho solvor] drfinitcly and perman
ntlv-vwUiuut it.
