STORY DENIED ]
BY THE FIRM
Bowles and Bass Are Solely I
Responsible For the
Peoples
J. R. Bowles found a story icoing
the rounds to the effect that .Howies i
& Bass are not the real lessees and ?
managers of the Peop'es Brick Ware- 1
house, which is now open for the sale i
of leaf tobacco in Conway on the aue- I
tion or independent plan. 1
The details of thrt story were that
the Peoples would be run by A. C. i
Thompson. 1
The firm of Bowles & Bass ran a 1
large advertisement stating; that they A
have leased this warehouse an<l that ^
they, only, are in char.ire of it and ore
running1 it this year in their own way |
and withouu the dictation or advise of j |
anybody. j1
The warehouse belongs to A. C. 4
Thompson but last year he leased it j
for the term of five years to the Cooperative
Marketing* Association. It was
operated and kept open last year by i1
the association under their five year^
)ease. It turned out that the association
did not need the warehouse in or- >
der to take care of its business here,
as it had two other houses, the Farm- J
ers and the Horry, these two are am- 1
.ply able to take care of all the tobacco 1
of the members in this section.
So the association leased the house*
to Bowles $- Bass for the remainder of '
the lease which they have in writing, j
it is understood, and Bowles & Bass ,
expect to continue to operate the j
house for three years after this pres- .
ent seaaon. I
The story was being told with evi- .1
dent intention to iniure the Conwav 1
Tobacco Market. This is the reason <
"why Bowie's & Bass found it necessary <
to advertise t^e truth throusrh the col- <
limns of this naner. and it is the rea- s
son why the Her ?ld is publishing the 1
facts as it understand'? them. The peo-11
pie should not he nt a Hi^ynntprre in I'
the placing of their product for sale 1
on the Conway market. * li
At first the story was looked upon '
as a mere idle report going- through
the community as such things often
do. Later it was seen that this false
story as to the relation of the ware- '
house in tho tobacco trade this year, 1
was being put out with a sinister pur- 1
pose behind it. }

Five of the merchants of Conway {
lecided recently that they would each
five away a Continental cast iron
ange. They announced this fact by ^
neans of a half page advertisement ?
>egrinning in the last issue of the Hor- ^
y Herald.
The ranges are worth $75.00 and
make prizes worth contending for.
rhe advertisement stated that the
*anges were already on display in the 1
vindows of the stores and the people j
vere invited to ask for information. '
By the time the last week's issue of .
;he Horry Herald was in the hands tf
ts readers, the ranges were on display '
n the windows of the five stores who
ire going to give away these articles

The five firms doing this as stated
n the advertisement are: Pitt's J
Pharmacy, R. W. Lane & Co., Win- 1

FARMERS WILL
LIVE AT HOME
A recent issue of the Extension
Farm News, published by the Agricultural
.Extension Service of the
State College of Agriculture and En
i ii r? i?? a.
gmeci IIIK, uuu me oiuie uepui imeut
of Agriculture, carried an article under
the following caption:
"Farmers will Live at Home"
2,278 Tar Heels sign the pledge to
carry out suggestions of the Extension
Service.
If you read this article what was
your mental reaction thereto ?
The thought that first came to my
mind was to the effect that here is a
movement which offers immense possibilities.
If these nearly 3,000 farm
families, unquestionably leaders in
their communities, treat seriously the
obligation signed, will not these safe
farming demonstrations attract the
attention of their neighbors, and will
they not soon lead to the establishment
of permanently stable conditions
on many thousands of farms? If
these things come about North Carolina
will truly become a land of milk
and honey.
The Pledge
I will raise enough corn and hay to
carry me through 1924.
I will raise enough meat to supply
my family this year.
I will have a twelve-months-in-the
year garden.
I will provide milk and butter for
my family the whole >^ear through.
I will keep an average of 30 hens
on my farr throughout the year.
. I will im; ove my orchard by setting
out fruits, small fruits and berries.
I will work for richer lands by
planting legumes and other soil improving
crops.
I will enroll at least one of my
children in club work.

I will add some home convenience.
I will beautify my homestead.
This constructive program has met
with favorable comment at home and
abroad. In a recent issue The Norfolk
Ledger Dispatch published tl>e
outstanding features of the program
and commented thereabout as follows:
. "Many good, ideas as well as loads
of good people come from North Carolina."
"This is a program which will commend
itself to the farmers of every
state in the. union. It would be hard
to improve upon."
Dr. B. W. Kilgore, Director of Extension,
has this to say in announcing
the results of this "Live at Home"
movement:
"On February 22nd most of the
white school teachers of the State,
through the cooperation of the State
Department of Education, were requested
to hold a meeting at their
>;choolhouse, at which blanks were distributed
showing ten important things
.which North Carolina farmers might
do towards living at home. Only short
notice was given the teachers to prepare
for the meeting, but most.of the
blanks were distributed, and though
2,278 farmers have agreed to carry
out the suggestions of the Extension
Service, it shows that North Carolina
has made a start towards living at
home. Of courss, many other farmers
will take part ft the movement,
.though we will have no official record
of their work. Those farmers
who faithfully perform seven of the
ten things asked will be given an official
"Certificate of Honor" signed by
fv, ** riAVAtmAt* f U Q finnt*iTviAn^Anf /~v f I
"II* VJW^l liv/l ^ Vll^ Kjupct IIIV^IIUUHW VI
Education, and the Director of Extension.
It is stated, these 2,278 farmers
will be visited during the year by the
county agents, who will advise with
them about any problem confronting
the farmers in carrying out the provisions
of the pledge. Of these signing,
820 were from the Piedmont
District, 489 from the northeastern
section, 464 from the southeastern
section, 398 from the central part of
the State, and 107 from the mountains.
In support of this Agricultural Department
program, the writer would
like to suggest the following business
creed for banks and other interests
which finance, and therefore become,
in a large measure, responsible for our
cropping system. The creed is strictly
in harmony with the program, and
its adoption and practice will hasten
the coming of our day of great and
permanent prosperity.
The Creed
1. I believe that the future welfare
of my state is, in a large measure,
dependent upon agricultural prosperity:
Therefore, it witl be my purpose
to encourage those farmers with
whom I have influence to do those
things agriculturally which they

with safe and sane farming j
operations. . 1
. 2.' I believe that soil fertility is \
fundamental; and knowing that the 1
Coastal Plain soils, generally speak- j
ing are deficient in organic matter, I ,
will strongly advocate the improvement
thereof by drainage, liming and
by the planting of leguminous and
nonleguminous cover crops; and by (
intelligent crop rotations.
3. I believe that every farm should <
be self-sustaining: Therefore, I will ,
urge and encourage the growing of <
food and feed for the family, for the ;
work-stock and for all domestic animals
on the farm, with a small surplus
for a cash income.
4. I believe that no farming system
is complete without livestock:
Therefore, I will encourage and help
those farmers worthy of credit to get
more and better livestock, such as
milk cows, hogs, sheep and poultry, in
order that each farm shall have a well
rounded system of agriculture and
may have an income independent of
the money crop or crops.
5. I believe that the scrub animal,
.and the scrub field-seed should be discarded;
therefore, I will encourage
the use of better sires and better
seed, for bigger profits.
6. I believe that no time should be
wasted in making a safe, sane and
well balanced farming program;
therefore, I will use the intelligence
and power with which God has enr
dowed me to bring about, in due season,
the realization of "The Fullness
of Our Days," as expressed by that
eloquent and gifted Georgian of a
former generation, the Honorable
Henry W. Grady:
"WJien every farmer in the South
shall eat bread from his own fields
and meat from his own pastures and
disturbed by no creditors, -and enslaved
by no debt, shall sit amid his
teaming erardens. and orchards, and
.vineyards, and dairies, and barnyards,
pitching his crops to his own wisdom
and growing them in independence,
making cotton his clean surplus, and
selling it in his own time, and in his
chosen market, and not at a master's
bidding, getting his pay in cash and
not.in a receipted mortgage that discharges
his debt but does not restore
his freedom, then shall be breakingthe
fullness of our day."

Under the proceedings thus started ?
an attachment has been issued 4wn
the court and the sheriff ha^JevflW^^^B
upon a tract of timber that Stevenson
bought from S. G. Booth on a tract of j^H
land of ninety-ftve acres, more or less,
and not far from Adrian and Bayboro. kV
The complaint is dated on July 23rd
1?23 and the levy under the attachment
was made and the papers &xter~

This is only one out of several suits

of Mr. Stevenson in the running** JMfl
of a small saw mill in this county. JL
It appears that he did a flourish!rtjcpflH

came on just following the war and
then he could not meet the obligations
against the business.
