CONWAY tilVEN GOOD'REPORT S. W. Lowe, of the State Insurance Department came to Conway last week and spent some time here muking an examination of the fire risks in;^e^ownf,^j|}^(eI.y^iW . .the various ty^iness fruilctingit.fand shopsand noticed particularly .the . $on<Ms tion of the back yards in referencei to the accumulation of paper, goods boxes, and other.debris that is easy to start a J^e.' He found ^.^jmited number of defective flues.,,ip (pome of the buildiiiRs and these were reported to the owners of the property and their I promise obtained to have the de/onf o A/V?**IA??4A J iVVVO VUllCVlCUl As a general thing he reported that he found the conditions in fairly good | condition. Mr. Lowe while here visited Mr. W. C. Pitts, the civil engineer, whv> is a relative of his. He left Conway for Murrel's Inlet where he will spend several days before returning to Columbia to his offices. He is originally from Laurens, S. C. He remembers when he came through Conway with a number of wagons, during the civil war, and went to I the coast of this county hunting j salt.. [the proportion of THE PIT RE MR EOS ' Col'pere.?Breeder?. of purebred livestock may observ? fvonv Unitf.l States census, figures that manv milestones are yet to bo passed in the race against the scrub. Statistics for 1920 show that in Iowa, admittedly the foiemost purebred state of the union, only 3.8 percent of the cattle, 3.7 prcent of the hogs, 1.8 percent of the sheep and 1.1 percent of the horses are purebred/.. Puvbreds have a similiar relation to the total number of stock on farms in Illinois and other middla western states. The census included'as purebreds only animals which are registered or e^uil4f to register. On a considerable number of farms there are animals. particularly hogs, which are practically purebred, although not eligible to registyr. The real number of purebred animals is therefore somewhat larger than the figures indicate. HoWevor. even with this al lownnce, the number of improvced animals is small in comparison with the total number of livestock. The figures reveal the magnitude of the field which is onen to live stock breeders for development. Progressive breeds will lend every* effort to the cultivation of this field at the present itme when bed-rock nrices for purebreds make them accessible to almost every farmer. Farmers who have adhered to th? use of scrub animals should grasn t.ho present opnortunity to repine th< m with purebreds at a low cost. AT HOTEL GRACE.

What can he more refreshing than to read of the advances in the cotton markets fvom day to day? One mont'.i ago October futures in New York were below 13.50c. At this time October is approximately 20c, ar>d the outlook is for a farther ad-1 vance. Washington dispatches continue to ! announce more liberal credits; irade | conditions are improving rapidly\ the demand for raw cotton is better i then it has been for months, and we f",el that we have been justified in advising farmers and others during the past month to hold their cotton, j There may be some profit-taking! and a temporary reaction, but con- . ditions are improving daily and we expect to see 25c cotton. There i-* no reason for urging anyone to sell so long as the market advances and loans can be obtained on holding cot- i ton. The now crop will not ho r^oro | than enoujrh to supply American , mills, and the old crop is more firmly held than ever. o Starting Signals. Professional sprinters start off at the report ol a pistol, hut. the rest of us begin our sprint when we hear a motor horn.

The Horry Industrial School ha.; \n advertisement in this week's issue of The Herald announcing: the opening for the next term to begin as our readers will find stated in the display columns. The management of the school is now trying to complete arrangements with teachers so they can establish a standard business college in the school this year, one having till of the departments usually taught in such schools name'y, Banking, Commercial Law, St* nography an 1 bookkeeping. There seems to be a growing demand for these branches but up to the present time the Horry Industrial School has not had either the equipment or the room. They are also planning to install in their mechanical department the making of salable articles by the boys and girls who need to work their way through the school, and they hone to perfect all of these plans in the near future. As soon as these improvements and additions are made the facts will appear in this paper. - OlTR WEEKLY COTTON LETTER. """""?-? #-t * On Friday, September 2nd., Ocatober luturcs in New York closed Strong, at 17.88. New York remained closed until the following" Tuesday on account of Labor Day Holidays. Liverpool seemed to realize en Monday that the American cotton crop was really a very smali one. and that market advanced 01 English points while New York was closed. Liverpool made further ren^ntional gains during the following two days. New York responded to Uri:" advance, and continued to soa. uatil iieptemboi 7th, when October U ach >! and the Spring months went above 22c. Spot cotton sold as high as 21 ) -2c to 22c Basis Middling. At this level a wave of pro4 it-taking set in and futures broke sharply, October touching 18c on Thursday. The market is now fluctuating between 18 l-2c and 19 l-2c. with an advancing tendency. The ginners' report was published on Sept. 8th showing that 481,788 bales were ginned up to September 1st.
