The Herald is almost convinced that there has been some real and general improvement in the grade.-* of tobacco produced by the tobacco growers of this county. This improvement has been very slow since the years back yonder when the Horry planter decided to try a new crop. Ii has been so slow that it has been discouraging, but nevertheless our faith has been stiong that in the course of time this county wouid become the producer of high grades of the weed. Time is remembered when each planter, just starting in the raising of a tobacco crop, would send over to an older section and get him man who could teach him how to handle and cure the tobacco. Various prices were paid for these experts, and sometimes they did not prove to be experts, but just re cruits like the farmers themselves, i It was not long before the farm-1 ers began to take hold for them-1 selves, and they read more. Instructions were to be found in many print ed things, especially almanacs ami the printed literature of fertilizer companies. We are accuquanted with some growers who have studied hard and worked hard and have brought results. For many years the majority 01 the planters succeeded in raising only low grades of the weed. It sold for very bottom prices and nothing more. Finally many ot these men have started to produce what w?* > might call medium grades and a few have produced for many years past a high grade of bright leaf that has brought them good money every time. There now appears a general improvement in the looks of the tobacco produced in this county and sold in Conway, Loris, and Aynor. We are glad to see this and glory in the fact that such an improvement has taken place; but just the same we are constrained to say that we are not producing our best as ye1. In some cases where a low grade of tobacco is produced on good land it may be safely laid to laziness, Too often the leaves are carelessly picked without seeing that they are ripe. No man can make a good grade out of green leaves whei picked. Then it is placed in the barn and the man goes off to dc something else while the small bo.\ runs up on it with the heat without having the experience to lead hin right. Or, the barn is left to d< the best it can by itself. Oftei care is not used in taking the to bacco out and seeing that it is pro tected from the elements. I'lace< in 'old leaky sheds it takes on mon moisture than it can stand. Ver; often the grower himself does no seem to realize at all that it is hi own ignorance or lack of experienc that is responsible for his bad grad and low prices. Ho. blames it o the warehouses or on the buyers am lets it go at that. Let us realize that there is sti room for improvement. Let us koe on taking the advice of those wh have done better than we nave. W can learn from them and improve on own fortunes, if we only will. I place of carelessness and idlene? lots put 'in care and industry. 1 place of ignoranco lots got know ledgo by reading and studying an experimenting. Wo are doing bo tor. We know it and fool it. are not doing our best yet, and u know and fool that. This meai that we must 'lighten up our bel and give our suspenders anottv hitch ami still koop busy. Wo have the land that has i superior in the tobacco growing he of this country. We do lack tl right kind of buildings to take ca of the tobacco, and to improve tli condition each and every farm should put his attention. Sa and put up the buildings.

Tobacco farmers nee?' better houses at home to take care 'of the tobac co after it is cured. Biness men here need better houses t\ take care ? of it after it comes to market. These , two things must be supplied if our markets is to attain the success it deserves. It is hard to keep from going into debt for things that we need. Some . will go in debt for things they do not need. c . o * The mistake we muke should be . the guiding posts to success. They must never be the cause of ultimate % failure. o The tobacco grower who produces the best grade is usually he who stays the most with 'it. TOBACCOGROWERS! , We are glad that we can now write r vou a word of encouragement. To- ' bacco is selling much better this week than at any time since our ^ market opened. Second and third curincrs of tobacco that is bringing from $25.00 to $35.00 per hundred this week would not have brought more than $30.00 to $40.00 last year on same date. We are also glad to say that we have a full corps of buyers including more independent exporters than we expected to see op our ] market this year. All of the stem- { meries will be operated in Mullins which is the life of our tobacco market. From all indications it will pay you better than usual to sell your tobacco in Mucins. It will take a strong | horse to roll the wheel this year and ! we beg to say without fear or contradiction that no warehouse firm in the bright tobacco belt is better equipped to serve you than Neal & Dixon ' Bros.

(\ ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT There are better and quicker ways of doing all of the things that we do, although it would appear on the surface that some things have reached the summit of improvement. There is no process or operation now in use as the most improved method that cannot be greatly improved upon still. With this fact in mind it is the duty of every thinking mar. to try to find an improvement in th^ line of work in which he is engaged, and thus he will advance the common good. n Neal & Dixon Bros.
