C.,: b Thursday, October, 2, 1902. Every young boy and girl who can take advantage of the oppor- c tunmties at hand ought to be en- h rolled at the schools, That is the e spirit and purpose of the education. - al system of this country, and this t should not be overlooked. " . w Every time a man invests in a i home enterprise, he is contributing i that much towards the general up lifting and betterment of his con munity, besides laying the founda tion for a continuous dividend that will reach and bless him in lator days, and with him help others by way of providing employment for those who need and want it. This is the broad, public-spirited way mn which to look at local improve ment. Not the least of the hy-products of the cotton crop aru the seed. They command a good price and go I a long way in defraying the ox- I ponsos of 131,king that crop. Their liorttnco an an article of corn iterco induces farmners to place them on the m11arkot, and thus the land is (leprivod of their help in i the way of fertilizer, yet the intol- , ligont farmtor knows how to meet i those objections and generally does v it when good prices prevail. o THf E THIRD PRIMARY. In the primary lhold on the 23, of Soptoniber to decido who shall H bo tho next. County Suiierinteu. dent of Education only 1107 votes were cast, and of these M r. Hal i, lums received 371 and Mr. Boggs r36. The closeness of the voto shows that the candidates were practically equal boforo the poople, while the small vote polled shows tlht the aphopls wer willing to trust the affairiis of Ii thati mpol)rtanit ofhico to( either of the worthy and comp1Jotent gor tlemn ini the3 race. 'With oithIer of theso young men' the school a l'airs would be in safe hands, and we predicot for Mr. .1! a]-t lum a useful career ats Superinton dlont of Edn(uationi. ThiANKS WElLI DElSERVEDO.a TIho poopl)eI of P ickon s county t 1 at large, the candidates and( tiho t< nIewspafpors-,dl are indebted to the young ladies (of the difforont telephone exchanges for their pa tieut and considlerato and elicient s; handling of the election roturns on g nights and (days following the three i recent primarie. in this county. p The demand for election news was met to the limit of their ability to give it, and the people approsiate the promptness and fulness with which it was given, If all the t people could know the severity of the trials to which those young ]adies havo been subjected, they would be doubly approciativ'o oft the special ef1orts they made to give the news as it came. SMALL ENTE3RPRISE3S. t The success attending the first r six months operation of tho Easley Creamery Company is an indica.. f tion of what other enterprises of f small capital under vigorous, jus t dicious management may be coun. t ted on to achieve. Tihlis enterprise started out as the t pioneer in its line ' and all who e have had dealings with it either in c supplying milk or using the out, u put seem to be pleased and eur- I prised at the results. It will make a money for the owners because it d meets a demand and gets the neo. f esary patronage, and while the people arc patronizing it, the whole country gets benefits in the impetus it gives in encouraging ~ attention to the development of a better class of cattle. 'me RAILROAD AND THB PRODUCBRI -tl Something of what we have been f~ titvin8 to say about Plokens as a la market may be readily nudorstood o after a little study and observation. p For cotton, the top prices are al' t1 ways paid, and for nearly every' o other commodity rmarketed in liokens county, Picken. head. the a snark~et both in price. paid and ina #be amouint bo'ught. This is a f.oo i taul cotton to a factory in order to et factory prices. The Pickons iulroad has made this possible nd yet somo few peoplo are dis osod to argue that they got no onolits from this enterprise.
