THE HOBBY ?"A CONWAY MARKETl WELL EQUIPPED; The Planters Tobacco and Storage Warehouse opened here last week and 1 sold about fifty thousand pounds of leaf on the opening day. This is the ] only warehouse in Conway that is outside of the Tri-State Cooperative ' Marketing Association. i The sales were continued during I the last of the week, the sales on ' Thursday being about thirty thou- * sand pounds and the sales on Wednes- . iay about the same quantity. The brighter grades brought in ' some instances forty or fifty ' cents per pound. The lower grades j ran downward from that figure to much lower prices, as was to be ex- pected. The Conway market has buyers ; here representing tho following nam- , ed companies: ; Export Leaf Tobacco Company. Imperial Tobacco Company. American Tobacco Company. Liirirett & Mvors. R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company. J. P. Taylor Company. This makes a total of six big companies whose buyers are on the Conway auction market to remain with us through the season. Besides these regular companies there are from five to a dozen speculators attending the market each day and buying whenever their judgment dictates against the bids of the buyers for the regular companies. There are several buyers representing orders for various tobacco companies located in the business of manufacturing in different sections of the country. This is mentioned to show that the Conway market is as well off as any in the State for obtaining high prices for the product on the auction, at least just as good prices as the grower would be able to get on any other market in South Carolina. The facilities for selling tobacco on the auction plan at Conway this year ore fully as good as we have ever known the condition to be. Have you ever tried feeding sour skim milk to chicks? Try it and watch them grow. It can't be beat. o Cotton Spot cotton prices declined 40 points during the week. New York October futures down 30 points. PHes Cured in 6 to 14 Day?

The following Government reports were published, and the market advanced 10(> to 110 points (neO over yesterday's close. Crop Condition as of July 25, 7.on per cent. Estimated Yield per acre, 157.2 lbs. Estimated Crop, 11.440,000 hales. Acreage Abondoned, 7.1 per cent. The Boll Weevil Report was not complete, but indicated an average damage of about 25 ner cent in this section VP TO DATE. The futures markets advanced rapidly as soon as the condition figures came out, o<-' they proved to he about 3 points below most nrivate estimates of the past week, indicating! a veil-! of 500,000 to 1.000.000 bales} less than the trade expected. We give the following statistics information: Spinners' Takinirs of American Cotton American Mills, this season,] 0,007,594 bales. American Mills, last year, 4,931,780 bales. Foreign Mills, this season, 0,532,623 bales. Foreign Mills, last year, 5,330,344 bales. Boll Weevil damage to 1921 crop, 30 per cent. Boll Weevil damage to 1922 crop, (not yet completed.) Acreage abandoned in 1921, 1,109,000, or 3.6 per cent. Acreage abandoned in 192?, 2,474,000, ov 7.1 per cent. This large abandonment due to Spring floods. The carry-over is back to pre-war size, or less than 2,000,000 bales of | American cotton, a great deal of which is unmerchantable. Spinners takings during the coming season should exceed 12,000 000 bales, and if we make only 11,000,000 it is needless to say that satisfactory prices should prevail throughput the season.

Last week the Herald contained several articles written by regular ind special correspondents in tho ( Surley and Bayboro sections, telling t f the unfortunate condition of the planters there. Those articles could lot give the full facts as nobody went ] >ver the affected area and got the vhole list of names and the crops planted and lost. This is the reason why more and more infeft'ination ( s being published in the Herald J 'rom week to week about the con- f titions. Here is the last batch of news r ibout the damage, and this comer from a section lying near the na1 L2mU... - -1. rvi J i ,iuniw uiguwuy auove win nayooro. | C. V. Bullock, a farmer who is j( usually successful in making a fairly J J Ine crop, had six acres of tobacco { planted jointly with his son, Addison Bullock. He will gather about onefourth of this tobacco crop. They lad twenty acres of corn and will ( father hardly one-fourth of- what t they should have raised. Their other J ;rops are about as badly damaged. 1 Ylr. Bullock lives about three miles ibove Old Bayboro, on the national lighway. C. G. Bullock, son of C. V. Bullock, lives between his father's place and Gurley. He has five acres of tobac- ? co that is a total loss. His ten or i twelve acres planted in corn will < give him just about one-fourth of a crop. His other crops are about as bad oft. He had one acre in garden peas and gathered six bu- ' shels, one acre of pepper from which he got six baskets. This was all of the money crop he planted and you can easily tell what his financial condition is or will be before he can raise another crop. Sam Johnson has lost at least half of his tobacco crop. Others who have been badly damaged are: Ed Johnson, John Holt, Tilman Gnainger and A. 1>. Bell. These are not. all, but the only name we could get from our iinformant. oncntions are Dad in that section and it is becoming known as the facts are leaking out. CO-OP PLAN ON CONWAY MARKET The co-operative warehouses at Conway, of which there are three, the Horry, the Peoples, and the Farmers, j all opened last Monday. Monday,! Wednesday, and Friday ol each week are receiving' days at these co-operative warehouses. Last Monday was the first receiving (lay. Ten thousand pounds of I leaf was received here .that day. On j last Tuesday, the members of the association did not know that the receiving days had been fixed for Mondays. Wednesdays and Fridays, and consequently there was more brought in to the warehouses that d,ny than there was the day before. Wednesday was a rainy and cloudy day but the tobacco was coming in just the same. The tobacco is graded and the growers are getting advances on it of ,*>t least one-third of the grade values. Most of those who have brought in have secured the advances and seem to be well pleased saying in many cases that this advance amounts to more tlvm they got for the whole thine* last year. So far all of the members seem to be well pleased with the working of the plan. I o Why He Quit Politics.
