J. H. Bell, a son * of W. H. Bel1, finished selling last week his crop or tobacco from one acre that ho planted. The highest price he received for any of it was forty-four cents and the lowest was eleven cents; and he receeived, net, for his entire one acre crop the sum of $247.00. o NO SERVICES There will be no services in the Methodist Church Sunday morning. Again all the efforts for the morning hour will be put into the Sunday school.

Freei n i rresiaent THE HORRY HERALD, COIT SAPIRO MEETS TOBACCO MEN Timmonsville.?Aaron Sapiro, of* San Francisco, attorney for the Tobacco Growers' Cooperative Association and council for forty cooperative marketing organizations with a membership of half a million fanners, received a rousing welcome from a great mass meeting of tobacco growers at Timmonsville today. When Mr. Sapiro visited South Carolina a year ago, the farmers of this section were selling their t<>bacco for 5 and 10 cents a pound Mr. Sapiro at that time prophesied that by forming the cooperative marketing association they would stabilize their industry and double their prices within single year.Returning1 to see his prediction fulfilled and to witness the orderly marketing of tobacco by the cooperative association in South Carolina, the attorney received a warm welcome from the organized growers of she 100 per cent cooperative town of Timmonsville and the surrounding country. The movement has come to stay and prosperity, better homes, better schools and richer country life will follow quickly in its train," Sapiro told the Florence county growers, predicting a breaking down of those financial barriers which keep the people of the country fifty years behind the city folks in comforts tnd advantages, and declaring that now every man who touches the growers tobacco gets a profit out of it except the farmer. "In five years out of 311 have the farmers made a profit out of their tobacco and then only by failing to count the labor of their wives and the children. The cooperative system is the only one that gives you the chance for the profit which you earn," said Sapiro. Ridiculing the affidavit o f one alleged contract breaker circulated widely among tobacco growers by those opposed to the association, Mr. Sapiro said, "A California cooperative handled a suit acainst a con j tract breaker named Rindge this year and got a judgment against him for more than $20,000." President George Norwood, Director Bright Williamson , and T. B. Young and other high officials were present at this morning's meeting. Mm. Sapiro will speak at Mullins this afternoon. o Pay for the paper at Loris by leaving the money with the Farmers Bank. You do not have to come all the way to Conway to get the Herald.

Johnson, president of the National Land Company, of Savannah, Cia., in which Mr. Johnson refers in very flatterin g terms to the pamph "oert'v issued by the Chamber ol' Commerce. Mr. Johnson is remembered by many of the older residents of Conway, he having been reared in this county. His letter is as follows: i "Some good friend has sent me a | copy of your pamphlet issued on ; Conway, and Horry. County, Sout'.i ' Carolina, and I am writing to tell you how much 1 appreciate it aw1 how proud it makes me feel of the county in which I was born and reared. "1 left the county in 1888, ancl have not resided within its borders since that time, but I am glad to say that I have had some little hand in the development which has taken ! place during- this period, and still own lands in the county. 1 see one picture in this pamphlet of a great institution which was born in themind of one of your distinguished citizens, and was mentioned to me in the Metropolitan Hotel in Washington, D. C., in the year 1901. I aided in starting this development, and am still connected with it, and am proud of it. "I am, and have been for the past 25 or SO years, familiar with this whole Coastal Plain, and have been watching its development all the way from Baltimore, Md., to Jacksonville, Fla., and I'm writing to tell you that there is no section in this whole territory that has made more rapid strides along agricultural and educational lines than Horry County." o NOTICE All persons are forbidden to hire or employ, or furnish food or lodging to Burroughs Mincy, a minor of fourteen years of age, bound to me by contract and deed from his mother, Rena Mincy.

Within less than ten days the opening of its South Carolina warehouses, the association made a big sale of its members' tobacco, and several smaller sales, which established at the outset that the association is a going concern and prepared to do bus'ness with the tobacco companies, its big- customers. Last week's receipts for tobacco in the Co-operative warehouses ran over M,o()0,0()0 pounds, and the enthusiasm of the members for the new marketing system is growing daily. BLOCK STREETS LASTING I ONC One of the most outstanding economies now being practiced in street and highway paving: is found in the use of old vetrilied paving brick or old granite block in the reconstruction of paving under which the artificial base has been disturbed. A recently conducted survey shows that this practice is saving many tax burdened communities thousands of dollars. There are numerous Americans cities that find themselves with brick or granite block pavements ranging in age from 20 to .'?() years or moie. In scattered instances these old pavements show signs of roughness. At the time they were built there was no indication that they would be called upon to stand such traffic as that, prevalent since the advent of the heavy motor truck. Many such pavements have no foundation other than the natural soil. Others have extremely thin and unsubstantial artificial bases which, however, were adequate for light or medium traffic. Present day heavy traffic has disturbed the thin base in some instan cos arm tne result, is a rougn sireei. The first practice in meeting this situation was to apply a resurfacing coat over the brick or block. This, however, frequently proved costly because the depressions in th base naturally reappeared and frequent patching of the new coat greatly increased maintenance costs. Engineers investigating this situation found in the majority of cases where roughness of surface developed that the brick or block themselves, because of their toughness and density, were for the most part uninjured and very often only very slightly worn on the upper side. The practice then developed of removing the brick, constructing a more substantial base, and relaying the brick by turning them over and applying asphalt between the joints, In the case of granite block, recutting often is resorted to. Numerous cities have adopted thi? practice in preference to costly-tomaintain resurfacing. The brick 01 block despite their many years of service, are practically as good as new, and with a more substantia artificial base a pavement good foi another generation is often obtained As an indication of how wide spread this practice has become ir recent years the survey points at random to the following ;is a few o! the cities that have adopted this method of renewing pavements Meridian, Mississippi, rensacola, F!a.

Usually the hat is only partially composed of the organdie, which maj form an overbrim and over-crown to some such material as brown crepc marocain. One such hat, worn with a costume of straw-colored silk crepe, had no trimming whatever, relying for its effect on the latige, floppy brim and some fine gathers around the crown. o Vacations would be rather nice if we had sense enough to stay at home and enjoy them* 1 J I ANNOUNCEMENTS ft************************* x $ it Cards in this column for \\ ^ 11 County or State Office, $7.50; >t |[ Magistrate, $5.00; payable in i* advance. 9C it ************************** FOR CONGRESS I hereby announce my candidacy for congress from the sixth district, subject to the action of the Democratic Primary.
