IMPROVED GRADES.
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. Make t
farm a more paying concern 1
having thereon the conveniences th
will take care of what is producer
o
Some will persist in ftsing t
wrong thing in the wrong place a
at the wrong time. Some try
find the proper thing and. use it
the right time and in the* rij,'
A place.
i ???
m Leave green tobacco leaves in t
? field until they are ripe. Soi
planters pick them green in order
.save them from drying up; !i
what is the use if they cannot
made to cure up well ? They w
' not bring back the cost of gathr
ing and* curing in nine case;* out
ten.

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. Come to see us. j

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.
