P A tobacco crop is a jealous mistress. It resents the least bit. , of neglect. ^ o Deeper ditches would improve some of the farms we have seen in this county. ' o Before planting and cultivating the cotton crop, learn how to poison the weevil. o Man cannot change the laws of nature but he can learn how to work with them. o We have great expectations from the strawberry industry in this section of the State. o Better packing houses will mean a better tobacco crop on many farms in this county. o Some Horry farmers are making two crops now on land where they formerly raised but one. o Confidence is a great thing to spur men onward. Without it there Is failure to begin with. o Respect for the law, because it is the law: That is what we need in the cause of prohibition. o Many of us are afraid to face the cold fatfts as they really are and we throw up & smoke screen. o The wealthiest farmers in Horry today are the ones who have . been the longest at the same plantation. o ? Easy street comes to those who worked and never to those who thought they could arrive by doing nothing. o It is not what we do but the way we do it that makes the difference in our results and those of the other fellow. o By the time we are through worrying over one income tax return there is another waiting for us at the postoffice. o As population increases the tobacco habit grows, and there will always be a demand for the product of the tobacco grower. o Home demonstration leads to the building of better homes, and making conditions better in those which are already built. o The small merchant, as a rule, extends too much credit to people who cannot pay him, and the result is a call from the sheriff. o The advantage of one man will turn out to be an advantage of others in many instances where those others seem to resent it at first. o Raising two crops on the same land from the same lot of fertilizer is like making two blades of grass spring up and grow where only one did before. o There is a tendency to expect things to be easy whereas they must be hard. This is the reason so many quit their jobs and go off to hunt one somewhere that will be easy only to repeat the same thing over and over again and never do anything. Success means rolling stones up hill and down hill. There is no job that is easy when it is rightly filled. o I TWENTY YEARS SEES CHANGE $ J^/W/WAVW/.VMVAVWW.V.VAV.V.VMV.Vd" Many improvements have been accomplished in the public road system in this county within the last twenty years.

The controversy was brought to a close through the efforts of the commission of klansmen, aided, it was said, by independent counsel, Arthur G. Powell, anc\ Hollins H.
