COTTON is selling in New York at 2{ cents the pound, the record price sinc< 1871. But somehow cotton makes pow. erful poor rations. N. G. EVANS, who is a candidate foi speaker of the house of representatives, may be o. k., but his initials look tot significant to suit us. SINCE so much cotton has been re ported killed, it is not too late to plani that land in corn. We'll probably neet some corn before the war is ended.

A War of Defense There are a lot of us who are not il favor of going to war except to dbfen< our country against invasion. But whei we fight the Germans in Europe we ar doing that very thing. If the German are not whipped in the present war it i a foregone conclusion that they will at tempt to invade this country. In fac they have already offered Mexico a see tion of our country if Mexico would hell them in this war. And how could the give any of this country to Mexico un less they came over here and took i away from us? Now is the time to sub due Germany. W': do not know whether there is an truth in the interesting report, but w hear that a young lady has broken he engagement with Watsing Bell.

M< Kissiek of the Greenville News gives u about the "caryophyllus aromaticus" i e highly appreciated, it comes too late t y be of any practical value.

It was probably pa ticularly pleasing to the Germans thi they blew up a school house, killing t( children aud injuring fifty others. \VHAT is home without a paper; "What are all the joys we meet, When we're ignorant of the topics That are talked of on the street?

Compare shoes, the wear they get and. the pleasure they give you with any other article of wearing apparel and you will appreciate that 8hoes are really the cheapest article iI your wardrobe. Shoes are made from skins that grow on the backs of. mimals.' These.-animals are not raised for their skins, but for meat, for milk, or for beasts of burden. The skins of animals are available for shoes only as these animals are slayightred for food. Consider the price you pay for mea t at- the butcher shop. Does thI's tell you any thing? Consider the price a farmer or stock' grower gets-for a beef steer. Do you know why? It is the ever increasing world demand for cattle for food and hides for leather. Higher prices for beef, hi..her prices for hides which go to make shoes, barness, belts, upholstery, and* hundreds of other articles which cost you more money today. Leather is not all. There are 65 other items of materials necessary to make shoes. But leather and supulies ure not all that go to make shoes. There is labor. Men and women, boys and girls, must do their part. Labor is one + oj the big considerations. You know how everyone is employed. Never in history has there been such complete employment at' high vages. Did you know that it requires the hands of 300 people to produce a woman's dhoe and get it ready for wearing? Did you know that it requires 110 machines? You may have an idea that shoes are made in one machine-that the shoe was completed in one operation. Did you know that there are 135 separate and distinct operations necessary for each shoe, or 270 separate opera tions fr each pah? Why are shoes priced so low? Because shoe manufacturers and retailers have used brains, skill, scientific methods, and kept prices down. Think it over. Shoes are not priced too high. By every rule of economical producton it is a wonder they are not higher. Yours truly, FOLGER, THORNLEY & CO.
