SUBSCRIPTION RATES: Jm» Year $160 flbe Months .90 Montha ^0 (Strictly in Adraaee.) 9= THURSDAY, JUNE 25TH, 1931. Et Tu, Printers? Senator John F. Williams, of Aiken, and his committee recently awarded a big contract (amounting to about $89,000) for prirtting South Chrli 1 na’s statutes to a Virginia concern, although it is understood that the bids of South Carolina printers were about the same figure. During the recent lamented ••ession of the general assembly, Senator Wil liams referred to the newspapers of South Carolina as not being worth “a tinker’s dam.” To tho^e who are criticising his action in awarding the printing con tract to an out of State concern we might suggest that perhaps the honorable senator also thinks that the South Carolina printers are not worth “a tinker’s dam" o r just plain damn.

And here it what ig going to be done about the matter by the republicans during the next 2 years - NOTHING Various and Sundry. Our various States are taxing the railroads to build highways so’s trucks can haul freight and thus bust the railroads Vo’g they can’t pay any taxpg to help build public roads. .^»The economic situation (as Mr. Hoover always says) is hard tp figure out ; for instance: Mr. A. owes Mr. B. $500. Mr. B. owes Mr. C. $500. Mr. C. owes Mr. D. $500, and - Mr. D. owe 9 Mr. A. $500. There’s no dif ference amongst these 4 gentlemen; they all owe one another indirectly and as neither has any money or credit, they will all have td go into bankruptcy. If everybody could pay everybody, then everybody would have something to pay everybody el>p with. V- , —r- Brings Opersi to Air Cotton Letter. New Yoik, June 23.—The spasm worm and the buffalo gnats in Miss issippi forced the bulls to cover, but not before many large herds were wiped out. Contnental buying eased off when July reached 8.35, as that was too hot for the straddlers. May shorts were inactive on account of weather reports from Texas, 4 and the market was aimless but lower ju‘t before the close. But near the end, future* rallied 5 points from MARTHA ATWOOD, Soprano, who first triumphed on the stage of the.

At one time it graced the wide front porch of what is now "The Circle Inn,” at one time the home of the late Barney H.

This is awful lazy weather but it is the right time to get-your fall to matoes planted.\ Get a fewF«*ed of the Improved Stcne, Gieater Baltimore, or Marglobe vaiicties planted in a spot where you can give them good attention, and be ready with some kind of "bug dust” to kill the many pest 9 which attaeje them almo*t as scon as they come up. Or better still—if you have some nice healthy plants of your early to matoes, make some cuttings of the ends of your branches and set them out as you would sweet potato vines. Give ’em plenty of water and take all the leaves off them. They will root just as sweet s will, and will give you a good crop. J set out some last week and they have rooted nicely now. I top dressed, .them yesterday with some nitrate of soda and 'some murate of potash, and expect a nice crop to begin to arrive next month. I also have some seed planted for a later crop. A row of okra, planted now, will give you plenty of “suption" for a late soup mirture. Another nice ga^^n crop is the Japanese turnip. Plant it now and you can get greens in early August or sooner. , Thi s turnip—the Shagoin variety— is a new introduction into our coun try, and is an especially tender and tasteful “green.” .
