These strenuous daya of laying by

trying la seep the ootton crop itlrred
do n?.t leOVf much time for writing.
And if other farmers are M busy
there is n?>t much tum- for reading
more than the head lines; that mod?

ism that has done n<> little to make
our reading very superficial and

Last Monday and Tuesday the
1 liter drove about seventy milei to
\ isit three local unions in Williams
hurg County. It was quite a "swing
around the circle" in a small way,
leaving the following places all to
my left: Turheville 4 miles; Olanta,
8 miles; Lake City, 7 miles; Cades
6 miles; Kingstree, 8 miles; Greeley
vllle, 8 miles; Foreston, 5 miles;
Manning, 7 miles; Sumter, 10 miles
and Mayesvllle, 7 miles.
Dozens of fields of cotton and to?
bacco can not make more than half
a crop under the most fa\orahle con?
ditions from now on?too late. Cot?
ton with not one-tenth of a stand
was painfully in evidence on each
side of the road along almost the en?
tire route. Generally right along
side of a Meld that has a good stand
and Is very promising, for where an
early stand was secured it will make
a full crop. Except for the hare Heids
without a stand of cotton, or the
poorly developed1 tobacco there were
evidences along every mile of the way
of some wood farming. Hain is
needed along the entire route for
Monday night's storm was only a
drizzle along 40 miles traveled, a
barely good ram heeribouts,
and good showers toward * Lakt City
and near Mouzon's bridge. Hut in
spite of the dry spring, or rather by
? n of it. there is promise of a
fine corn crop, if good rains will but
fall at proper Intervals for the next
few weeks. 4
