If we had roads laid out bv a competent civil engineer, grad ed and macadamiz°d. it would mean that a farmer could pull twice as much on his wagon with less wear •nd tear on his stock, vehicle and harness to sav nothing of the pleas ure to be derived therefrom. Of course we would have to pgy for them but we would have to pay very little if any more than we now pay for the worst roads imaginable. Union County and Dispensaries. (News and Courier.) The statem nt of our Union corre spondent that the passage of the Carey Cothran law wl 1 leave Union county defenseless against the "blind tigers’’ because there will remain no d snensarv constables se'ms strange, and vet the grounds for his state ment are quite plausible. The aw oflic-'rs. elected or appointed to pre serve the peace and enforce all the laws, will refrain from pursuing ener getical v th* violators of the whiskey traffic- statute, and so the absence of nerhans two special constables whose services would cost about $1,500 a year represents the difference be tween prohibition forced or not en forced. Union county voted out the dispen saries. Its people are of the same blood as thos^ of Cherokee the latter county having been in part carved out of Union, but prohibition will be enforced In Cherokee beyond any shadow of do^bt. The explanation is perfectly simple. Public senti ment in Cherokee will not tolerate the whiskey traffic. We suppose that in Cherokee no man could be e’ect*d sheriff in a Democratic primary whom the people did not trust to enforce th« ’aw relentlessly against illicit whiskey dealers, and these Chero kee oeonle would be equally careful to recommend for appointment as magistrates only men of the same kind Behind a’l of this lies doubt less the fact that three or four or six Cherokee men. strung, vigorous and ’void characters who are prohibition ists are leading and shaping nubile s -ntiment. We do not know who ♦ hey are. but it is a safe assertion that thev are known in Cherokee. Perhans on« is a lawyer and another a farmer and we suspect that there some nreacher of the Goso°l whose example and Preaching keep the nub Me mind k^yed to the point of enforc- mg t''o ’aw regardless of consequenc es to violators. On the other hand it is possible that the n'-on'e of Union are opposed to prohibition and that they wish whiskey sold. Many a good man is not onoosed to the whiskey traffic, ’egitimately conducted, and if the s nti’mvnt nf the county is about even- 1 divided prohibition wil 1 be difficult of enforcement. Sottiq of th''”'* davs the peonl° of South Carolina will '^arn. what to their sorrow thev have i r norod. that ‘he whiskey question is one of the environment, essential’y ’oral and dependent ttuon the habits !>T, d opinions of the indiv’dual com munities. In many a rural township of South Carolina no kind of whiskey «hon legal or il egal. would be per mitted to exist. The farmers would make the community too warm for it to thrive, although it might hav° the sanction of the I^egisature and the State Government. In the same way — other places in South Carolina in which the people, the patriotic and r ood citizens at that, do not admit that the sa e of intoxicant is a crime, and so it is impossible to arouse them 'o a warfare against it. The passage of the Carey-Cothran law is a long st 'P towards the recog nition of this principle. Under it. if the people of Union wis hto have whis key shops they may have them and ought to have them; but it is wholly a matter that concerns the peoole of Union. —Buy your seed in bulk—you get Ihree times as much as you get in the small 5c papers.

A ladv who lives on the north side had occasion a few qavs ago to go through the ordeal of engaging a new housemaid. The young woman who had applied for the place was evi dently not a native of the United States In fact, it was apparent that she had he^n in this country only a little while. “Can you cook?" asked the woman who expected to be her mistress i; ease they came to an agreement con- c rning terms. “Vis. Oi can that.” “How about washing?” “Well, ma’am, not saying’ anny- thing agin the washin-s you may have Oi’d rather take less and let some body else do it.” She was a pr?ttv girl, with rather shapely hands, and it was hardly rea sonable to blame her for desiring to ' reserve her b autv if arrangements could be effected that would make such a course possible. So it was de cided that she might, by accepting $1 a week less than she would have otherwise received, omit the wash ing. There was some further question ing. which proceeded satisfactory to both sides until the girl was asked why she had “left her last place." “Well. Oi’m that ashamed Oi hard- y like to tell you.” she said. This at once aroused suspicion on the other side. and. of course, nego tiations could proceed no further un til the matter was thorough./ ex plained “You'd ’a’ done it ourself if >o»’d a’ been in my place,” said the girl. “That doesn’t matter. I must know lust what the trouble was or I can not engage you.” “Well, if you must know, the mis sus had a little dog.” “Yes?” “And Oi had to take it out evtry day for a walk.” “I should think you would have en joyed getting out.” “Oi did. It wasn’t that Oi had anything agin the dog or the fresh air. but she always made me grj out of the front door wlen Oi took the dog. but when Oi went out bv myself or with any of the voung men that come after me we had to leave be the back door, and me self rayspect wouldn’t stand fer it.” “Very we 1. Annie, you may bring your trunk around We haven’t any dog to be aired.” Diversify Crops. (Anderson Mai.) There are many people vi hn do not ha”e a great dea of confidence in the utterances of Harvie Jordon of the Southern Cotton association, but a man who talks as much as Mr. Jor dan does is bound to '•*” some good things occasionally. Mr. Jordan gave out a neswpaper interview the oth«r dav in which he urged tre importance of dlsversiflca tion of crops The subjeqt is an old one, it is true, and perhaps Mr. Jor dan did not say anything new. But the subject is always an important one. especially at this time of year, and it cannot be dwelt upon too of ten. For this reason some of the things Mr. Jordon said are worth reading and conslderatlng. He said in part: The cotton growers of the south are urged to adopt the policy of di versified farming under an intensive system for the crop year of 1907. On account of labor conditions and high price*’ for all kinds of supplies the extensive culture of cotton at the ex pense of the production of necessary food supplies on the farm is a policy which has long since proved suicidal to the average cotton grower. A genera’ reduction this year of ten ne* < cent In the *-tal cotton acreage panted last year and an increased acreage of ten Per cent in food sup- olies will to a very great extent solve many of the present perplexing prob lems which confront southern cotton growers. Everv effort should be ex erted by each indlvidua 1 cotton grow er this year to steer clear of the credit system and establish a cash basis of trading. The credit svstem is responsible for the enormous re- ceints of snot cotton during the fall and early winter, which always tends to deoress nrices. It will be difficult to systematize the warhousing and financing of snot cotton so as to regu at^> the sunoly to ^’eet the actual legitimate demands of consumption so long as the credit svstem honeycombs the south, as it does today There is but little hone of relief from the iniquities of the credit system so long as cotton grow ers nersit in keening thMr corn cribs and smoke houses in the "west, and owing their local sunp-y merchnats as tb > medium through which the pur chase and distributions are made. Solve the labor problme by piant- i n - fpx-pv aces cultivate and ferti lize better and use the latest and ’"nrt annrov’d farming impements and ’abor saving devices. Solve the credit system bv producing the neces — tv food supplies at home. Solve the question of marketing the crop f or fair and profitable prices by re ♦•Mning the ownership of thn staple after it is made, and placing it on the market only when nrices are satisfactory. Planting. cultivation •’nd harvesting of th” crops can be done by individua’ action. Market- ! ng. however must be done under modern methods of cnmnact organiza tion and svst°m. While arranging for a broader exnense of divesifled ’Manting this snrtng do not forget t.ho equally important matter of cementing your local organization and making the ri<rht kind of nrepa r ations for systematizing the sale of ’he cron next season.

Mr. Tillman said that It had always been a matter of keen re gret to him that so many rascals es caped their Just deserts on technicali ties. From his view point, which was that of a corn field lawer this was not right. The South Carolinian thought that the country needed more “corn field” law and less of the other kind. “It is true.” said Mr. Carmack, of Tennessee, gravely, “that men who are really guilty often do escape pun- ’shment on m^re technicalities, but the ’aw cannot be held altogether to blame for it. I recall a case in noint down in mv State. “In the little town of Culleoka, where I was a student in mv youth- fu’ davs. lived two quite celebrated characters. One was known by th° euphonious name of ‘Snorting Bill.’ the other was called ‘Stuttering Ram.’ “ ‘Snort'ng BiM’ and ‘Stuttering Ram’ were boon companions, but wbrni thev got ful’ of linuor. which was as often as the opportunity of fered. thev would pommel each other to beat the hand On the occasion I sn r ab of thev went down to a town bv the name of Hurricane Rwiteh and • T nt a little drunker than usual. In ’he fight that fol’owed ‘Rtuttering Ram* eot the better of ’Rnortine Bill * T n fact, he got ‘Rnorting Bill’ down and tramned on his face. A few davs later ’Rnorting Bil’’ met ‘Rtut- torinsr Ram’ in a saloon in Nashville. “‘Rnorting BiM.’ with painfu 1 memo ries of the little incident down at Hurricane Rwiteh. nulled out a big 1r nifp and announced his intention of ! cutting the heart out of ‘Rtutter- ing Pam.’ “‘Hold on. BiM,’ said ‘Rtuttering Ram.’” jumping behind a table. ‘W-why—what is the matter with von “ ‘Didn’t you knock me down and tramp on my face the other day down at Culleoka?’ shouted ‘flnort- ! ng Bill ’ “ ‘N—u-o—Bill.’ sputtered ‘Rtut- tering Ram.’ I didn’t do that at Cul- l^oka.’ “‘Rnorting Bill’ paused and they began to argue the matter. Final’y he became satisfied that ‘Rtuttering Sam’ was right nnd put. up his knife. “After he had left ‘Stuttering Sam’ took a big drink and said: “It is ’me T did tramn on ‘Snorting BIP’s’ face down at Hurricane Switch, hut T reckon T have escaped on a techni cality. Bill thought tnat it happened at Culleoka.’" A Result of Advertlsinq. (Dawson News.) The Jasper (Fla.) News thinks it is "dead easy” for the merchants in small places to meet the competition of the big mall order houses in large cities, gives an i lustration of how to do it. as follows: "We have an example right here in Jasper. Eighteen years ago Hon. Frank Adams began business in this town with only one thousand dollar*. He began by advertising. He has persistenly advertised ever since. H° has paid this paper as much as $500 in one year for advertising, and today is worth over $350,000. while some of the merchants who thought advertising didn’t pay have gone out of business, or are hammering along in the same old hard rut.” If the mail order houses did not advertise liberally, the customera they have gained in small towns and in the country would not know that they still existed.

South Carolina Leads. (Charlotte News.) In our jugment there is not a Rtate In the Union today that has a better law. re’atlve to the whiskey nupefion than Routh Carolina, and such a law’ would nosslblv n^ver b^ve been obtained had it not been tor its experience with the dispen sary. In that Rtate the matter of whiskey or prohibition is left with each coun tv. Any county mav vot« in prohi bition. or may vote in a disnensarv. but never, (and here is the beauty of the law) never, can anv countv vote in sa’oons. In other words tberp can never be a sa’oon in Routh Carolina. In our opinion this Rtate will have weM ni^h as high as possible when It. nasses a law like that, un- ’pe« each conutv should declare for straight prohibition.
