One. of the most sur- re prising is the rebuke given to the Republicans for "the folly of the Re- a publican pary in the reconstruction cc period immediately following the Civil War." ** || ine south knows all too well the crimes committed during the recon- c< struction days but the great New m York journal is rather tardy in admit- ^ ting that reconstruction conditions 1,1 helped to make the South solid. The ^ Outlook, referring to the widened gap between the North and the South, ^ caused by the reconstruction, says, c< "The southern States, still afraid of al negro domination, though the peril of ai it has long since passed away, vote as ?1 a unit." ^ And then The Outlook astonishes f* us almost beyond measure when it IH says: "The greatest need of America J is not a protective tariff." In cong- ^ 3ress, on the stump, and in the press, ^ Republican leaders have emphasized ^ the importance of protection to all of al ~ the infant industries that have now grown to be very lusty young giants. ? ? The iron masters of the East and the ^ a wool growers of the West have thriv- K ft ed on protection and grown not only 11 fat but saucy. Protection has been ft their meat and their drink until Mr. ^ ft Underwood, of Alabama, came along ^ ft with his low tariff laws in the interest ^ u of the consumer. A great howl was a m raised?that the country was on the ^ ft verge of ruin and that free trade a ft would make America a land of pau- y i(ici3. uui sec me result, unaer constructive legislation initiated by c Woodrow Wilson and passed by congress, the country is prospering and P flourishing like unto the green bay n tree. With cotton at 20 cents a pound, corn over $1.00 a bushel, wheat going to $2.00 and other farm f products in proportion the people are J m learning that their best interests lie ^ ? with the Democratic party. 11 v But it is surprising and gratifying g that such a leader of Northern opin- 11 ? ion as The Outlook, Roosevelt's old ^ journal?that such an influential pub?. lication should admit that there is no _ need for a protective tariff and that reconstruction was all wrong. As the old hymn has it: ? "While the lamp holds out to burn The vilest sinner may return." ^ It is a pleasure to see the old tar- c barons and steel trust moguls who are making more money than ever before, admitting as does The Outlook, that the greatest need of America is not a protective tariff. The Independent, another one of the greatest and most influential ~" northern journals, has this strong statement: "The election has one clear lesson for the American politician. The American people are on the side of | progress. No party can win to power that ignores this fact. The Democratic party was sucessful this year be- C( cause it followed a progressive leader." ^1 In another article The Independent says: | "The big fact in the election after <;< j all was the tremendous intellectual ! superiority of the Wilson candidacy, ,n ! standing over against the amazing intellectual failure of the Hughes canm didacy." It is exceedingly gratifying to re^ cord these -vidences from high Re- ac ' i publican sources of the esteem and j approval of President Wilson and his spiendid constructive administration. 811 I : <! HUGHES' CONGRATULATIONS 111 Mr. Hughes was a little slow about it, but he did send President Wilson C1 his congratulations, saying: "Permit me to extend to you my 811 congratulations upon your re-election. K I desire also to express my best wish- ^ es for a successful administration." re This is very nice, Mr. Hughes. We '>r forgive your unkind references to the South being in the saddle and hope you may live long enough to write another such letter to the next Democratic president.

W. W. Watson, "Pecanwood," . rangeburg county, is the first farm- ^ j to reply to the question. This rey is direct and to the point. The letter from Mr. Watson fol- ,pr ws: Fa thi Answering your inquiry as to what ces as a farmer, am doing to prepare fiel >r the invasion of our arch enemy, le boll weevil: I have been eettine thi >ady for this formidable army for hei n years or more by the planting of of large grove of pecans which now 1 vers an area of 150 acres and num- Cr ?rs about 4,000 trees. Many of ha> tese trees are yielding handsome re- tio irns in nuts which sell readily at 35 erj >nts to 75 cents a pound. The de- fai and for choice nuts is far greater nu lan the supply. For instance, I had th< iquiry for ten carloads this season ir, om one party. de The pecan trese are fertilized by le planting of winter legumes and etj >ver crops and in summer by peas su, nd pindars. The crops of the peas se< nd pindars are gathered by the herd pF( f thoroughbred Duroc-Jersey hogs. un xcellent hay crops are harvested for an( le work stock and the cattle. There wc i no profit in hogs or cows unless pi< ley can be raised largely by doing icir own harvesting. Corn bred hogs d eep the balance on the wrong side of ws le ledger. Hogs eat forage as well ha s grains?grass is the cheapest hog jyjj jcd. I have found Bermuda grass be ne of the greatest assets of the W( iirm and the most economically rown of any stock food.

Under the icient management of Dr. L. H. otti and C. L. Hunley, the County ir has steadily progressed and on s year there was held the most sucssful fair in the history of ChesterId County. Much interest was manifested oughout, which shows a spirit of arty co-operation among the people the county. The three community fairs of Mt. oghan, Macedonia and Middendorf d__exhibits that deserve first menn. Here could be seen almost evfthing that can be grown on the rm and the people of these cominities are to be congratulated for lir co-opration with Mr. W. J. Tilwho helped in the organization and velopment. The Kitchen Department, conductby Miss Stella Mims, was a great ccess. In this department could be in canned fruits, vegetables, jellies eserves and pickles, as well as plain d layer cake, light bread, butter d biscuit. Among the canned goods u*e tomatoes, beans, cabbage, apis, pears and berries. The display of the Girls' Canning ubs also conducted by Miss Mims, is a beautiful sight. As these clubs ve not yet been organized a year, iss Mims and the club girls are to congratulated upon their excellent >rK. In the Household Art Department, nducted by Mrs. J. W. Hanna, was en the greatest display of fancy >rk that the Chesterfield people ve ever before seen in one place, this department could be seen emoidery, tatting, buttonhole work, ocheting and other handmade ar:lcs of the highest quality. The Women's Home Demonstra>n Club had exhibits that must not forgotten. Among them was an ;less refrigerator which has proved success. The Boys' Corn and Pig Clubs, conicted by W. J. Tiller, had on exhibit me of Chesterfield County's best rn. These boys are teaching their thers how to live at home by raisg their own "hog and hominy." In the Farm Department, conductby Mr. W. J. Odom, could be seen most every kind of farm product, ere could be seen corn, cotton, heat, oats, peas, hay, tobacco, potoes and hundreds of other proicts. In the Poultry Department, conicted by J. W. Hanna, was shown me of the world's best breeds of ickens. They were Wyandottes, Dnnl/a A mnnnoc Ano it i i:u nutno) /lu\.wmuo, \/i piu^vvnu id others. By looking at this departent one readily sees that our farms know the value of poultry produc>n. The Stock Department, under the pervision of F. W. Rivers, made a le showing. Some of the best ules and horses of the county were own here. The best breeds of cati known were on exhibition. They nsisted of the Jersey, Kolstein, lernsey and Hereford breeds. The gs shown were Poland China, Berkire, Duroc-Jersey and others. They sre exceptionally fine. An exhibit by the State Depart?nt of Agriculture must not be fortten. They had on exhibition mples, showing the difference beeen good and bad gasoline, kerone, meal flour, corn, wheat, rye, etc. The arena events, conducted by P. Murray, Jr., consisted of single d double harness horses and pony iving and riding. The boys and Is showed much skill in the riding d driving events. Besides the exhibits and arena ents there were free attractions for eryone. They were the balloon asisions by the aeronaut, Mr. Walter Jewell and the high dive by Billy ein. On Thursday and Saturday ; balloon did not ascend because of fh winds, but the aeronaut made a dutiful tripple parachute drop on sdnesday and Friday.

Packed in Enterprising Florence Er Aids Wheat Growers I Florence Times: LOS The Chamber of Commerce has arranged with the City Savings Bank to furnish the farmers of this section with seed wheat. The proposition is not for making money, but for en- HE couraging wheat growing. If the farmer can pay for the wheat he will Nq do so, but if he cannot the Chamber of Commerce will do it for him on condition that he agrees to turn back a bushel and a half of good clean wheat out of the crop so that the ?< Chamber will have more seed to dis- jlQr tribute next year to the farmers. In this enterprise the Chamber of r Comemrce will have the backing and 8'01 the co-operation of the government a r agents in this territory, who will help the farmers grow the wheat and do , the best for them that they can. Mr. R. E. Currin, of the Pee Dee ,s' Experiment station, says that wheat Tai may be successfully planted at any con time after the first killing frost until jng the first of January, so that the farm- ^ ers who want to try it this year can . ? . hpf get busy rignt now. Secretary Brown, of the Chamber No of Commerce, says that he doesn't hal think there is any doubt about there being a flour mill in Florence next ^ year, for he has two strings to his bow in this matter and will certainly po' line up one or the other. lift ______ 4 Pay Your Taxes And the * cot Educate Your Children in fini Profound in wisdom and patriotism **a( were these words of entreaty to the ca* people of his district, delivered by acl Henry A.
