FLORENCE TO HAVE
CANNING FACTORY,
FIFTEEN TONS OF SWEET POTATAFC
A HIV Will RF ITS
CAPACITY.
The secretary and other officers of
the Chamber of Commerce have been
out in the city for two days in the
interest of a canning factory, and
they are satisfied that they can call
it a success.
The proposition comes from an association
that has some of the most
successful canneries in the world.
The stock of one of them is worth so
much that the stockholders have just
quit keeping count and all are doing
well.
The company proposes to put the
factory in, all equipped and in Operation
hpfnrp thp rail is made on the
subscribers for their money, and the
work must come up to the promises.
The capacity will be twenty thousand
cans a day, and it will work
from one hundred to one hundred
and fifty hands for seven months in
the year, and maybe longer, if the
farmers of this country diversify the
truck crops more. They will make
a specialty of canning potatoes and
will pay for the potatoes fifty cents
a bushel for all that may be brought
in and the f armer who cannot raise
potatoes at that price on a big scale
ought to be ashamed of himself, for
it has been shown that from 500 to
$uu Dusneis can oe raisea on an acre
in this country.
The factory will handle about 15
^ tons of sweet potatoes a day in the
season.
All sorts of spring vegetables are
to be handled right away except the
t?eans, which will require especial
machinery for stringing them, and
beans will be handled later.
The stores and the farmers are
not going to be worried any more
about wilted vegetables for they are
riot going to have a chance to wilt,
and the farmer may be assured of
a market at the cannery when he
comes in, and the price of such food
will be lower to the consumer because
of the improvement of the
market, the assurance of selling and
a fixed price at all times.
The business men of the city have
taken hold of the proposition very
readily, and they are putting down
their subscriptions very liberally.
One man has already offered an
acre of land, right on the railroad
siding, where cars may be loaded
and and it will be an ideal
place for a location.
That proposed company will buy
its supplies all from local men and it
will mean very much to the cfty.
The hands working in the factory
will be paid from one dollar to two
and a half a day.
The men who are making the proposition
are well known in the West

There is every reason to believe
that work will soon be started on

CHAT FROM CADES.
Warm Weather Helps FarmersLocal
aod Personal Items.
Cades, January 28:?The unusually
i
warm weather for the season is making
oats look fine, but it is feared
that should a severe cold spell set in
failure will be the result. Tobacco
plants are also beginning to show up.
A good many have lost their fresh
meat on account of the extremely
warm winter.
Farmers generally have taken advantage
of the season for plowing,
repairing and ditching, also
erecting new tobacco barns, in this
section.
Mr W E Nesmith rides in a new
Ford auto, a recent purchase.
Mr S J Brown of Douglas. Ga,was
here for a day or two last week visiting
his father, Mr H J Brown.
Mr and Mrs F B Thomas of Central
visited at Mrs N F Knight's, Mr
Thomas' sister's, Sunday.
Messrs R E Tart and J R Haselden
made a flying trip to the city by the
^ r** 3
Sea sunaay.
Messrs V G Arnette and H F Fenegan
visited Latta last week,returning
in a new auto Mr Fenegan purchased
up there.
Mr Tom Gaddy, the new sale8
i
clerk at W I Hodges Co's, makes a |
notable addition to the gallants of
our town.
Mr Geo Eaddy of Nashville, Tenn,
visited his mother, Mrs W J Haselden,
recently.
Mr and Mrs W E Nettles of Lake
Citv were here one dav last week to i t
; visit their daughter, Mrs N F Knight.
Mr Joe M Eaddy was here today

m Sand
and Clay Road ?.
j Editor County Record: ?
I am going to jot you a few lines
i from down in the "sticks." or better
known as the sandbed.but if the
weather permits and everything
works out smoothly as it is going on
j now, we hope to have the road so
that automobiles can go over that ^
road without having to hire men to
push them over. Some time ago a ^
certain gentleman and lady trav4
eled over the sand road in a little ]
"skip jack" machine,and, of course,
when they struck the deep sand they ]
could not go,but as luek had it,your I
writer happened to be working near !
by, so he had to take the hand3 and
push the auto out,but,but they have j
not ventured to travel this way since.
In the course of three weeks longer 1
I think the little "skip jack" can
make it through "0 K", as the }
county is putting in some very good ^
work on this road, which is the *
lower bridge road.
Your writer was also down at ?
Camp No 2 some time ago and the
chaingang in that section of the ^
county was putting in some road
: work, building the sand clay roads. 4
I noticed,too, that the farmers were
burning beds to plant tobacco. J
i Oh. ves. a crentleman told me the (
\
other day that he had a hog ho fat
that some time ago the hog started
to run from some school children *
and being so fat.it broke both of the
bones in its hind legs and he had to |
kill it. Your writer had the pleasure
of eating some of the same hog.

iiesl Cough Medicine lor Children. ^
' 'I am very glad to say a few words
in praise of Chamberlain's Cough a
Remedy," writes Mrs Lida Dewey,
Milwaukee. Wis. "I have used it
for years both for my children and
myself and it never fails to relieve
and cure a cough or cold. No family
with children should be without |
it as it gives almost immediate relief "
in cases of croup." Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is pleasant and safe
to take, which is of great importance m
when a medicine must be given to I
young children. For sale by all J
