PUBLIC MARKET PRICES.
Many cities which maintain public
markets to help cheapen food are
g?hding that those markets are not
serving their purpose, because tne
dealers persist in charging as much
as retail grocers and meat stores out
side!
-This is, of course, unjust and even
absurd. In some cases the market
stalls are provided rent free. Rents,
-Jn aW event, are always placed far
:Jffirer^ than ordinary store rent, for
the special purpose of enabling the
dealers to sell cheaply. The market
dealers, moreover, have no delivery
system to maintain, and no telephone
and other services to pay for.
There is -an implied understanding
that the public will receive, in lower
prices, the benefit of the market ac
commodation furnished the dealers by
the city, with. an additional saving
earned by going to the market and
carrying away their purchases.
_-" Jf things sue not sold cheaper at
public .markets, why pay the taxes-to
Tri?? <n*fl>? those markets, and why go
to the extra trouble of patronizing
t?em?
The same principle applies, in 3pm ?
degree, to the sale of eggs, fruit, vege
tables and other country produce at
farmhouses?a method that has be
come common since the automobile
came into general use. It is found
generally that the farmers charge
about as much for their goods as
the city dealers/despite the fact that
they are paying no store' rent and
other commercial expenses. Since the
purchaser himself pays all the ex
pense, why should he not get the pro
duce at the sam e price the farmer or
gardener or poultry raiser would
charge the middlemen buying from
him, plus whatever slight amount is
justified by selling* in smaller quanti
ties?
FOOD COSTS AND STOOCK
MARKET.
assertions of food manufac
taat they are not at all re
Ible for burdensome prices would
be more convincing if it were not forj
xhe 'tell-tale testimony of the stock
market.
Almost without exception, the stock
ffif- corporations engaged in making]
or handling foodstuffs and drinks has]
goner Up lately. There seems to have
been more of a boom in them than
in almost any other line of securities.
The market, price of securities is a
pretty good barometer. When there
is "a boom in any line, it means that
that line is making more money than i
osnai.
There is no question that the food
industry in general has been making
a great deal of money. And however
the men interested may justify their
profits to themselves, they will have
great difiiculty in justifying them toj
the public on whom the burden falls.
TtHE "NEXT WAR.".
"As conditions now exist," says Gen
eral Bernhardi, in an article written
for an American newspaper, "there
is danger that in one way or another
we will withdraw from our obliga
tions. Then a new war will be a ne
cessity."
He explains that the allies, through
the peace treaty, have sought to make
it: impossible for Germany to wage
war in the future, and the treaty
will achieve exactly the contrary."
He finds that the clause obligating
Germany to surrender the men respon
sible for the war and its crimes is ab
surd, and blandly announces that "he
who would pronounce it good to give
up" the Kaiser and the leaders would
dig his own grave."
!The only reproach the Kaiser de
serves, he says, is "for having begun
the war too late."
He pronounces it "an utter mistake
to believe that progress of humanity
is possible in eternal peace."
"He represents his country as mere
ly playing "possum." "Possibly the
German nation will for ? while con
tent itself with the position to Which
the late war relegated it, but it is a
grave error to believe that will be
possible in the long run."
He is certain that "the late war
conceals in itself a new war," that the
conditions imposed on Germany will;
result, at no distant time, in a ' vio
lent reaction." War may delay a lit
tle, "but come it will."
Here is the same old spirit Ger
man militarism, flaunting itself fla
grant and unashamed. The war, ac
cording to this view, was not a crime
meriting punishment and atonement,
but merely a great game which Ger
many, through some miscalculation or
other, happened to lose. Sooner or
later, the Germans must try again,
and with a great victory wipe out the
disgrace and inconvenience resulting
from their present failure.
It does not matter at all that they
have accepted the Allies' terms. They
do not intend to abide by them one
minute longer than they are compel
led to by superior force. Let the Al
lies weaken or cease watching, or let
the Germans grow strong enough to
feel self-confident once more, and this
treaty, like its predecessors, will be
but another scrap of paper.
It is really a good turn that Bern
hardi and his robber brethren do the
world in making such frank an
nouncements. It helps to put and
keep the Allies on their guard.
MAJ. PATRICK
DREW DEAD
Barnwell, Aug. 9.?Major Patrick
Drew, one of the best known traveling
salesmen in South Carolina, and for
many years prominent in the South
Carolina National Guard, died at his
home here early this morning. The
funeral services will be held at the
Catholic church at Barnwell at neon
today and the interment 'will follow
in the Episcopal churchyard.
Recently, while in Asheville, Major
Drew became unwell and was advised
to go home, so he returned to Barn
well. For the last week he had been
very ill.
Major Drew travelled for the Crad
dock-Terry Shoe Company of Lynch
burg, Va., and as their representative
made a splendid record, his sales al
ways ranking among the best in the
Souti-^rn States. He was a man of
wide acquaintance and the announce
ment of his death will bring sorrow to
many friends in ail sections of South
Carolina.
When the South Carolina National
Guard was mobilized for duty on the
Mexican border Major Drew came to
Styx, but his health was such that he
rwas not among those sent to Texas.
He was for years active in the militia
and his official record is an enviable
One.
Major Drew was born in Ireland ??0
years ago, coming to the United
States when a young man. He lived
in Barnwell many years ago, but re
moved his residence from here for a
while, during which time he resided
in Columbia. About eight years ago
he returned to Barnwell.
? He is survived by his wife, who was
Miss Sophie Vogel, of Barnwell.
EXECUTIVE COM
MITTEE MEETING
Managers Appointed for the
Special Congressional
Primary
The County Democratic Executive
Committee met in the Court House at
noon Saturday with a sufficient num
ber of members present to arrange
for the primary election ordered by
the State Committee to nominate a
candidate for Congress from the Sev
enth District. Managers were ap
pointed to serve at each of the clubs
at the primary election on August
?26th and on September 9th, in the
event that a second primary shall be
necessary.
A resolution was adopted request
ing County Chairman John H. Clifton
to take up with the State Chairman
the matter of affording oppor jnity of
enrollment to the young men who
have become of age since the last pri
mary and also to the men who were
in the army and were not enrolled last
year. It was the sense of the meeting
that these men should be permitted
to enroll and thus be given the right
to vote in this primary, v
The status of club members who
have removed from one club district
to another since the last primary was
also discussed, and it was the sense
ef the committee that these men
should be permitted to transfer from
the club in which they were enrolled
for the 1918 primary to the club of
the district in which they now reside,
and that they be permitted to vote at
the club of the district in which they
have established residence since the
last primary.
A resolution was adopted urging all
Democrats to vote in the primary and
that every one ' who votes in the pri
mary make it his business to cast his
ballot in the general election. This is
most important for the preservation
of the integrity of the party, as there
is a threat of an independent candi
date at this election. All Democrats
who have not obtained registration
certificates since July 1st, 1918, are
reminded that certificates issued prior
to that date are void and that they
will not be permitted to vote in the
general election unless they have cer
tificates issued since July, 19IS.
On motion of Mr. H. L. Scarborough
a resolution was adopted that: The
President and Secretary of each club
be urged to appoint a committee of
three or more whose duty it shall be
to see that every Democrat within
their club district registers on the first
Monday in September, which is the
last opportunity for rfgistration be
fore the general election.
The act of the last session of the
legislature applying the Australian
ballot system to all clubs having an
enrolled membership of fifty or more
members was brought to the atten
tion of committeemen present. At !h"
last primary the system was applic
able to incorporated towns only, but
hereafter it will be enforced in all
clubs having fifty or more members.
Chairman Clifton was requested to
draft a circular letter to the presi
dents of all clubs setting out briefly
i but explicitly the rules and regula
tions of the Australian system as ap
plied to the primary.
The question of providing funds fori
the expenses of the primary was dis
cussed at some length. The commit
tee has only a small balance left from
the last campaign, and as the county
committees are not permitted by the
party rules to levy assessments upon
congressional candidates, this being
the prerogative of the State Commit
tee, there is no source from which
funds may be drawn, except voluntary
contributions from members of the
party. Chairman Clifton was request
ed to communicate with the State
Committee and ascertain rwhat part
of the expenses of the primary that
body would pay. It was also decided
that each member of the County Ex
ecutive Committtee would undertake
to raise funds from among his club
members to assist in defraying ri
expenses of the primary. Mr. Clifton,
as the representative of Ward 2 Club,
guaranteed to raise $50 which would
be the equivalent of ten cents per
capita for the club membership. Mr.
Scarborough, also, said he would
guarantee to raise a fund from Ward
1 Club. If the other clubs do like
wise the financial problem will be
solved.

COUNTY FARMERS
VISIT FLORENCE}
A Large Number Visit the Pee;
i
Dee Experiment Station
on Friday
-
Eighty farmers of Sumter County,!
reprrsenting practically every section ;
of the county, went on the trip to the j
Pee Dee Experiment Station at Flor- j
ence yesterday.
Mr. J. Frank Williams, County j
Agent, and E. I. Reardon, Mana'ging j
Secretary of the Sumter County Cham- i
ber of Commerce were the managers J
of this pleasant and profitable tour ?
and they were very much gratified j
with the interest manifested by the
farmers of Sumter County.
Mr. R. E. Curren of the station with |
Professors Barr and Lewis of CK-mson |
College met the farmers and conduct- j
ed them over the extensive experi
mental farm and explained to them \
many things which the farmers ought j
to know. Rain interfered to some:
extent in the day's events, but all |
of the farmers agreed that they wer?- i
well repaid for th^ til me taken in i
visiting the station.
At 2:30 o'clock the visitors were
taken into Florence and had a fine
oinner served them at the Atlantic
Coast Line eating room.
Mr. Clyde Brown, managing secre- j
tary of the Florence Chamber of j
Commerce, and a committee of Flor- j
ence business men, welcomed the
visitors to Florence.
Mr. Commander of the Florence
Chamber of Commerce, and Mr. R. E.
Curren, welcomed the visitors during
the dinner in short but happy talks,
while Messrs. H. L. Scarborough and {
E. W. Dabbs in behalf of the visiting
farmers, responded in mpropriate
and appreciative ^talks.
The visitors were unanimous in the i
opinion that* the Pee Dee experiment j
station is doing a great work and |
that the farmers of the Pee Dee coun- !
ties ought to visit this important sta
tion oftener than they do.
The trip was a delightful event all
the way through, and many of the
visitors said they are going there
"early and often," as the information
received and the observations are j
very valuable.
On the return trip the Young Ped- j
igreed Seed Farm was visited and !
some of the best cotton seen this year
was inspected. Another stop was
made at the Duroc Hog Farms at
Cartexsville, where the party were
shown some high class Du rocs. Four
hundred head of registered Du rocs
are kept on this farm. One of the
party from Sumter remarked that he
did not know that there were so mnrv
hogs of that size in the State of South
Carolina.
FOOD PRICES SOAR
Decrease in Supply in July
Shown by Crop Report %
Washington, Aug. 8.?With living
costs soaring the nation's principal
food crops showed sharp decreases
during July resulting from droughts
and pests over much of the growing
area.
Wheat production fell off 221,000,
000 bushels during the month, ac
cording to the forecast today of the
department of agriculture, corn show
ed a reduction of 27,000.000 bushels;
oats 137,000 bushels; barley 27,000,
000 bushels, and white potatoes, 34,
000,000 bushels. Rice alone of all the
crops, showed an increase.
Total production of wheat was fore
cast at 940.000.000, but this was an
increase of 23,000.000 bushels over the
forecast last December 1 and 149.000,
000 bushels over the five-year average
from 1913 to 1918. Winter wheat
showed the greatest loss with 124,000
,000 bushels with spring wheat pro
duction showing a decline in 97,000,
000 bushels.
Spring wheat production fell off
sharply in Minnesota, North Dakota
and South Dakota. Largest prospect
ive reductions in corn yield were in
Indiana and Illinois.
TOBACCO MARKET
Prices and Receipts in Local
Market Continue Good
Due to the fact that Friday was a
big day in Sumter on aceount of the
auto races, the tobacco sales were not
as large as usual, although the prices
were about the same.
The Moore Brothers' Wnrehons.'
sold .rt4.2f>S pounds for an average of
about twenty-six (2<*?) cents. This is
a better average price than that of
any previous day on which sales were
made.
At the Banner Warehouse total of
36,260 pounds w^re sold for the aver
age of twenty-six cents.
The prices of the local markets are
growing better daily as Friday's sales
will indicate.
Today the houses are cleaning up.
preparatory to the heavy sales ex
pected on next sales day.
GLENN SPRINGS
IS REVISITED
One of the Old Habitues P.e
turns After Many Years
Glenn Springs, August 6, 1919. j
For the information of prospective
visitors to this groat health resort
I advise the buying of railroad tickets
to White Stone?not to Spartanburg.
The mail for this place comes and
goes via White Stone, and autos for
passengers meet trains twice a day.
The charge for a passenger from
Whjte Stone to Glenns is one dollar?
the distance is about seven miles.
The distance from Spartanburg is In
or 16 miles and the charge, I am told
is anything a passenger will pay: Have
heard of charges from $3 to $8. But
on the contrary I heard a chauffeur
who seemed to prefer to go to Soar
tanburg, agree to take two passengers
from here to Spartanburg for $1.25
each. At present I hear that the hotel
and also the principal boarding'house
are both overflowed. But the people
go as well as come every day. and
those who are willing to double up
until theyNcan do better can no doubt
get in.
I have been here about a week but
have seen few if any of the familiar
faces of ten or more years ago. How
ever, all have the old Glenn Spring's
habit of being sociable. All talk with
out waiting for introductions. The
price of land and condition of cotton
crop about here are the leading topics.
Land does not seem to be so high as
in our vicinity, but I have not heard
of much on the market
Thanks to the attention of Mr. T.
G. McLeod and Dr. X. Y. Afford. I
have enjoyed a number of auto drives
around the country, and if what I have
seen is indicative of the balance of
the Spartanburg farms, I would judge
that so far from there being, a reduc
tion of cotton acreage, there must
have been an increase, even the ter
races, that I have always seen cov
ered with grass and weeds all, or
nearly all, have a row of cotton and
it is the finest looking cotton in the*
field. All the cotton I have seen is
of fine growth and flourishing appear
ance, in weed, but the general obser
vation is that it has very little fruit.
However, the people here say ther/e is
time yet to make a good August crop,
yet they admit that the crop is later
than usual.
The county chain gangs are work
ing the roads leading to this place,
a work that was, and is yet, much
needed. Many of the visitors have
commented on the fact that all the
gangs we have seen are composed
entirely of white men. several <">f the
members being almost boys. To see
them swinging picks and shoveling
vlay in the broiling sun naturally
aroused our sympathy. I did not find
out where the negro convicts are ;if
they have any, and I presume they
have. Since writing this I have in
quired, and was told that the negroes
are in separate gangs. One gentle
man said he saw a gang of all ne- i
groes.
The water has the same old taste
and effect but the place does not have
the old time appearance. The walks
from the hotel to the spring are noi
kept up. except on the principal one
The others are rough from washes
and grown up with weeds, while the
ground in front of the hotel is grown
up with tall grass and has no appear
ance of attention. From the numbe
of demijohns, full and empty, that I
see passing I judge that considerable
water is being sold in that shape, but
the bottling plant that the Simpsons
had seems to have been discarded.
Capt. Jack Lancaster is still on his
old job with hot and cold baths, but
the old 25 cent service isv now 75
cents.

DELIGHTFUL DANCE
AT ARMORY HALL
Large Number of Out of Town
Guests
Friday night at Armory Hall was
held one of the most delightful danees
of the season. The rain had helped re
make it more comfortable than usual.
A large crowd was present, many of
whom were visitors in the city. Some
of the out of town visitors at the
dance were: Misses Rhetta Heath,
Harriet Patterson. Margaret Thorn
ton and Julia Riser, and Messrs. Vau
dy Brown. Owen Riley, Hugh James,
and Davender Bethea. Dancing was
enjoyed by the young people from ten
to three.

"HAGOOD GOES
^TRAVELING
A national highway does not signify
that it is a fine road else the one from
Cam den to Cheraw would be splendid.
Of course the recent rains had put all
our roads in bad shape but we found
on our trip to St. Pauls,N. C, the other
day, roads much better than the one
above mentioned. The dam in Thomp-?
son's Creek swamp just this side of
Cheraw had been brokenvand was un- .
der repair. Pee Dee had been on a .
rampage and put things in bad shape
generally. Generally speaking all the ?
roads in Marlboro County were fairly .
good and most of those in Scotland
and Robeson Counties, X. C. Return- ?.
ing. we came by way of Darlington^nd
Bishopville where the roads were ex
cellent except near to Heriot's Cross
Roads on to Providence, where they in -'
some places were almost impassable.. .
the worst roads we have" seen any
where are in Sumter County.
Our country is on unparalleled devel
opment. Take Kershaw county out to.
the northeast, a section of country as
unpromising as most, unless it be Ches
terfield, and here we found crops ofj.
I corn and cotton almost on par with
I the best in Sumter county. Chester?
| field astonished us almost ?>eyond
I measure for we had never dreamed
such crops could be grown there as
we found some equal to the best we.
saw anywhere. Of course the crops_/
in Marlboro were fine as were those in.
North Carolina. Did you know con-;
jsiderable tobacco is grown in Chester-:
I field, some in Kershaw, plenty in Marl- >
boro. We saw very little corn in Marl
boro. ' The poorest cotton' we saw any-,
where was in "Lee County.
The cheapest land we found was in
Chesterfield, at twenty-five and thirty
dollars. All the rest was going from
fifty to three hundred and that in the.
country, not suburban land.
Crops were more badly damaged
by the recent floods in Lee and Sum
ter counties. Every where business
was brisk. . :
Mrs. H. C. Bethea is again able to
be up. '
The youngest son of Mr. and Mrs..'
S. W. Alien is quite delicate.
Miss Margaret Lenoir at home for
a few days wtih her parernts, has gone
to Clemson.
The Y. W. C. A. at Camdgn are
camping at Dinkin's Mill.
The successful politician is a ju
dicious straddler. Also he is an ex- .
pert at trenching. This does 'not
mean that he hugs the old ruts but
that he follows the way that gives
fewest jolts to the people.
As long as white folks stay in their
places, negroes are apt to stay in
theirs.
