MONTEVIDEO A
CITY OF DELIGHT
Physically Situated So It Is
One of Healthiest Cities
in the World.
Montevideo, capital of the Republic
of Urapfuay, where Secretary of
State Colby made the second of his
official visits in South America, is
described in the following bulletin is-(
sued by the National Geographic
Society:
Physically situated so that it is one
of the healthiest cities in the would,
with an equable climate which makes
it a delightful place to live in, and
possessing an atmosphere free from
the bustle and noise of the more modern
and commercial Buenos Aires and
the more metropolitan Rio, Montevideo
has become the resort of South
America's Atlantic coast. Thous-1
ands of wealthy South Americans are
v to be found there at nearly all sea
sons of the year, participating in the
carnival, gambling in the great govf
ernment-owncd casions that may be
compared to those of Monte Carlo, or
merely enjoying the restful life of
this city which still clings to the
Spanish habit of looking to "manana."
Since Montevideo is in the
southern hemisphere its seasons are

, the reverse of those in the United
States. Visitors are especially numerous
for the bathing season which
begins in October, corresponding to
i the northern May, and is at its
height at Christmas, the southern
ni id-summer.
"Det H'hed impressions of Monte\
idoo will bring to mind many similes
r.rcl contrasts with better known cities.
Like New York, it covers a narrow
peninsula from shore to shore;
but in architecture it is the antithesis
of the North American metropolis,
being made up of a seemingly vast j
number of low stone buildings, a few j
two or three stories in height, the'
great majority of them but one story.
The principal thoroughfare, "The
Avenue of the Eighteenth of July,",
extending along the ridge of the pen- !
insula, with its colonnades and sidewalk
cafes, gives a touch of Paris.
And as a great packing center for
the live stock produced on the unsurpassed
pastures of Uruguay, Montevideo
is comparable to Chicago or
Kansas City. Evidence of this fact;1
is sometimes wafted on the winds,
when they blow to the city from the1
seat of the gigantic industry across
the bay.
In physical equipment Montevideo ,
is modern. It is well lighted, well wa- 1
tered, adequately supplied with trans- ,
portation facilities, and most adr.nrai
bly drained. Socially it c'.in.rs to the .
past, following more faithfully than
any other large city outside of Spain,
and the Orient, the old Soanhh Moor- j
ish traditions of society's proper atti- j
! tude toward women.
Courting is still carried on by smitten
swains parading below tl.e bal-i'
conies of their senoritas awl whisper- <
ing sweet nothings to them--from a 1
safe distance. Ladies go freely in
! public, but not in the company of
imeh. Society is mainly a matter of
[family parties. Even at the opera
j there are separate galleries for men j
{and women, and unless a MonteviI
dean family man can afford th?
j price of orchestra seats he must 1
; view the production from one level, ;
while his wife looks on from an- '
other.
A cloistered life can hardly be '
said to have affected the appearance
of the women adversely. Throughout
South America Montevideo has
the reputation formerly possessed
by Budapest of harboring the most
beautiful women of its continent.
As in other large South American
cities moving picture theatres
i are omnipresent. Most of the films 1
j they show are imported from the ;
United States. Perhaps these mod- :
!crn amusement places are helping 1
: somewhat to strain the bonds of
i age-old custom. Young people of i
i the two sexes may attend these c:- ;
nemas together if chaperoned. And i
the management of manv of the :
theatres evidently is willing to be
the "deus ex machina" for youthfu 1

Match Boxes Preach Sermons
Montevideo has nearly a score of
daily newspapers and the voiccs of
a small army of newsboys arc
heard constantly except during an
hour and a half at midday when a
'siesta' is enforced by law for all
business. With the voices of the
newsboys mingle those of youths
and derelect adults hawking government
lottery tickets or boxes of
matches from the sale of which th-2
government also obtains revenue. On
each match box is printed a mora!
maxim which may be considered lh^
al fresco substitute for the framed
mottoes that adorn some Norlh
Amercian homes.
Just as Uruguay is free from
physicial extremes?it is without
mountains or gorges, deserts or
jungles?so Montevideo is without
social extremes. It has no equaiid
slums and no ostentatious millionaires
row. It may not inaptly be
dubbed a comfortable bourgeois paradise.
Montevideo is famed for its port
which is one of the best on the Atlantic
coast of the Americans. The
city has a population exceeding
400,000, more than a quarter of the
population of the entire 72.000
square miles of the republic. T
1800 Montevideo was the largest
\nd most important city in fc'out.

ADVISES FARMERS.
Hamlet, N. C., Feb. 4.?Will you
please allow me space in your paper
for a short item.
I wish to say to the framers and
all concerned that I have kept watch
nil the way of the desperate fight
in each side in relation to stock law,
and, while much interested, kept
quiet. As I see in your issue of Feb.
3 a statement which shows Horry
L'ountv now under the nrovisinns nf
Ihe general stock law, I am real anxious
now to speak and say that while
1 have before kept quiet, I have been
both amused and interested, and I
feel that now is the time when the
people of Horry county should use
every precaution. Many are likely
going to build large pastures and
some will likely attempt to keep up
the fences around their farms, and
I am anxious to say to every one on
ordinary upland, and unless one has
an extra place for pasturing, that
large pastures and to keep up fences
around the farms are all in vain and
will in course of time prove a mistake
and a loss. You will benefit

hog:; lots, where you can keep your)
stock out of insects, and have them I
handy where you can give them the
best of attention.
Be sure and purchase the very best
stock you can get. I would suggest
the best of Jersey cows and also the
best of Dr.roc Jersey hogs, and by no
means should you attempt to keep
common or mixed stock. Time will
prove you a loser if you mix your
sy>ck.
And I will say that I am real proud
that Horry county has the stock law.
I feel sure that in a few years Horry
will improve and show for herself
that nothing better could have happened
to her, in case the people will
take advantage of the present opportunity
and apply themselves and get
those old fences out of the way and
clean up and ditch, stump and improve
the land. Very few in Horry
county realize what their land is really
worth. In my opinion Horry county
will now develop and in only a
short time prove herself far more
valuable than her people give her
credit for. This is a turning point,
and she will take advantage of her
many opportunities.
.In 1020, in the month of June, wher.
I thought crops the best most everywhere,
I had the pleasure of going
entirely through the states of North
Carolina, South Carolina and Geor- ?
cia, and after the trip 1 decided that ?
t had seen the best crops in South
Carolina, and also 1 believe if Horry j
county was improved like Marlboro,
country, her land would be equal to,
o;ood.
One farmer in Robeson county,!
North Carolina, informed me his j
farm had averaged one and a half J
l\ r-* 1 r\-C /*/\4-4-/\?'* i\a? r* *? r? /m 4

years standing. If that is true, that,
is a good showing, but still you Horry j
farmers have plenty of upland like:
that by Mr. Brat Brigman in Robeson j
county that will make two bales per;
acre. Many of you have already out-!
stripped what you thought impossible!
just a short while ago.
I also had the pleasure of visiting;
the State Fair at Raleigh and the1
State Fair in Columbia during 1020,
and I saw there plenty of red Duroc
Jersey hogs, weighing 800 pounds I
and more. I suppose nine-tenths of! %
all the hogs at each of the fairs were;
Red Duroc Jerseys and also averaged ;
good size all round. The Red Jersey
cows are small, but the 'cheapest!
milk and butter was derived from the!
Jersey cows. I also saw one Jersey1
male that was valued at $20,000. Can
yoy raise such stock as this in the
swamps of North and South Carolina
?
If this misses the waste basket 11
will write again.
