SEEN AT SMITHS.
Lo:alItem; of Interest of Recent Occurrence
Noted.
Smiths, Mav 2:?Mr James Mcv
Clary, from near Kingstree, visited
tv relatives in this community Sunday.
Cotton planting is keeping our
IT farmers busy. I notice corresponP
dents from certain sections lvport an
iucnastd acreage of the ''fleecy staple",
but am glad to say that no
such conditious obtain around here.
i If anything, the cotton acreage will
De uimimsneu tins year ana more
attention given to truck and tobacco
and other money crops. If the
farmers were assured of getting 14
or 15 cents a pound for their cotton
they might well afford to plant the
earth in cotton, but take cure lest
the prevailing high price be but a
bait to hire the f .rmers to over production
so as to play into the bands
of speculators, thus repe.-.ting the
exrerience of tobacco growers last
year. It would be well to give
pause and consider this (piestioa before
rushing headlong into planting
so much cotton that it must result
in over production, and I hope that
y these reports of so much cotton being
pluuted are exaggeiafire of tlnthe
true condition. It may that a
lot of fertilizer is being used, but
* this to be applied to other crops
besides cotton.
The devil always has someone toj
work for him, it seems, and often j
for very small wages. The other J
night Mr Bingle Coker and his
brother, X J Coker, went fishing at!
point on Black river called the
"black hole". They left their cart
under a shelter in a field near the
river swamp. Fortunately they took
the horse with them to the lauding.
Wheu they came out about 1 o'clock i
at night aud started home one of
the cart wheels gave way and both
the occupants were thrown from the
cart and severely hurt. It will be j
remembeied that Mr Bingle Coker j
got his right arm cut by a gin saw j
some time ago so badly that it had to
be amputated and the wound was!
not fully healed. He fell on that
side and hurt his arm again, causing
' him much, pain and suffering. If
the tap were removed from the axle |
as a practical joke it was a thought- i
less and dangerous prank, while if ;
the act were malicious it was a mean, |
cowardly persou that would stoop to ;
so low and treuchei ous a method of
revenge.
Messrs William M Smith and J
Y McGill, Jr, attended preaching at
Moore's X Roads Sunday afternoon. {
Miss Eloise Kinder, accompanied
by Mr C S Woodrow, spent Saturday
aud Sunday with friends and
relatives at Lncile, in Florence
county. Kox.
CURED HTS MOTHER OF
KUKU.M AT1S.M.
"My mother has been a sufferer
for many years with rheumatism,"
says AY' 11 Howard, of Husband Pa.
"At time* she was unable to move
at all, while at all times walking
was painful. 1 presented her with
. a bottle of Cham he i Iain's Pain j
Balm and after a few applications i
she decided it was the most wonder- i
ful pain reliever she had ever tried.
In fact, she is never without it now
and is at ah times able to wal' . An
occasional application of Pain
Balm keeps away the nam that she
was formerly troubled with." For
