LOCAL NEWS ?Hon. R. D. Epps will go to Simthville in Lee County tomor row as the special guest of Spring Hill Lodge A. F. M. to deliver an address and assist in the obesr vance of the festival or St. John the Baptist. This festival is an nually observed by the .Masons of 'Smithville. and the craft from many lodges participate in the celebration, and enjoy an all-day outing and picnic. Mr. Epps was the guest of the lodge last year. Sumter should become the most important tobacco market in the State within the next two or three years. The establishment of the China-American Tobacco Export & Trading Company Stemmery here gives this market advantages su perior to that of any other mar ket in South Carolina. The boll weevil renders imperative the re duction of the cotton acreage in all sections of the county and farm ers who have not planted tobacco heretofore will turn to tobacco as one of the money crops. Sumter county produces as fine bright to bacco as is grown in the country, and there is no reason why the crop canot be largely increased, j Fine tobacco sells for a high price and pays a good profit. The cer tain way to make money on tobacco is to produce fine tobacco and curej it properly. i Sucessful experiments have been made in making news print paper from Alabama Short Leaf Pine,! and a Birmingham paper was print-: ed this week on paper produced in a Northern mill from Alabama! pine. Great quantities of gum is! being shipped from this county to Northern paper mills, and it is re ported that fine book papers are made from it. With the ample sup ply of pulp wood that are i^ailable in this section there is no reason why a number of paper mills should not do well in the South. There is no. sense in shipping pulp ] wood thousands of miles to North ern paper mills and then shipping the paper back to Southern print-! ers. By this process we are pay ing the high freight rates twice inj addition to. the profits that the! mills reali2e .on the manufacture.! And :t is a fact that at prevail-) bag prices the mills have made 1 '? ?? ' 1 enormous profits during the past: I three years. -.. j Orders are being placed for new j equipment for the Osteen Publish-' i ing company, and it is hoped that; ? within two or three weeks publica tion will be resumed at home. The ; ! erection of a new building will be i ' started as soon -as plans can bej j prepared and the contract let. Each and every member of thej I Osteen Publishing Company ap-! j preciates the many expressions of j sympathy and offers of every as i sistance possible from fheir loyal I friends in Sumter. The most val j uable assistance that can be rend i ered is a liberal advertising pa | tronage, which will be the most profitable investment thot the business men of Sumter can make ?it always pays to advertise?and in addition the prompt payment of J bills due and past due will furnisfr I all the funds needed to tide over I the present emergency. . A large; I number of paid in advance sub-; I scriptions would also be welcome. | j A practical demonstration of sym- | ; pathy is cordially invited along j ; the lines suggested. Tears and \ \ kinds words soothe the soul, but | ! more business and the prompt I payment of outstanding , accounts ! j will do more to relieve the distress j i of the moment. I -j I The get together meeting held in, the Girls' High School a few weeks I ago did not accomplish a great! deal of a practical nature, but that! is no reason for not making anoth-j ; er or several efforts to-formulate; j a program to meet conditions andj j develop co-operative methods off j farming and marketing.
