CHESTERFEILD'S FINE
^ COTTON MARKET
Chesterfield has made a reputatior
this fall as having one of the finest
cotton markets in seven states. The
fleecy staple comes in here every day.
The streets are lined with wagons and
trucks with loads of cotton?all
f
awaiting for the buyers to sample
their cotton and make their bids, rhe
Chesterfield mnrket is about a cent
?U. _*1 i ?- ?
vi ui? uviier tuwna in ine fee

It is a fact that practically ever}
bale of cotton that is bought on the
Morven, N. C., market is resold tc
the buyers here, either being hauled
hCTe and and on streets with '.he
Morven merchants tag* on same, 01
sold to buyers in 50 bals lots and
shipped t>y them from Morven. Oaj
promin<!n-v fli-m at Gibson, N. C? has
sent truck after truck load of cotton
through Cheraw to Chesterfield and
ouiu Dame ncrtr un our streets, i nis
is cotton that. was purchased on the
open market at Gibson and other
Marlboro towns.
Several enterprising citizens up in
North Carolina have gone to buying
cotton at Morven and Wadesboro and
then have same hauled to Chesterfield
and sold on our steets here. One
man made fifty dollars on three bales
of long staple which he bought in
North Carolina and resold in Chesterfield.
The buyers here are, J. T. Hurst,
Rivers Bros., T. D. Huntley for J. S.
McGregor, Redfearn-Rivers Co., and
B. C. Moore.
The market during the past week
has been unsteady with a slightly bullish
tendency. '
The best prices paid yesterday
were .2206 .for short staple and 38
cents for long. Seed 67 cents.
There have been about 1,500 bales
sold on this market this season.

The Ideal
HOGGING DOWN CORN
Clemson College, Sept. ?That
the practice of hogging down corn is
t a profitable one has been shown by
; numerous tests at different experi,
ment stations. Iowa Station Bulletin
143 reports results from utilizing the
k crop in this way as coifipared to hand
I feeding in dry lots.
I These results show that hogs
> actually make larger gains and re(
quire less feed per unit of gain when
allowed to do their own harvesting
' than when the corn is hand-fed. in
1 dry lots. In addition, a considerable
item is saved in the cost of harvesting
> the corn.
Thesif experiments show also that
it is very uneconomical to feed corn
either in the dry lot or in the field
' without a protein supplement. When
i corn alone was used, from 50 to 80
> per cent, more grain was required for
100 pounds of gain than when 10
per cent meat meal was used in the
ration. The farmer does not always
; need to buy his supplement but with
a little, forethought can often supply
this in the form of home grown for,
age crops, such as cowpeas, rape and
pumpkin,s vptch, rye, etc.
Prom flinco Tawo
_ _ ? ... M.vwv *v ?? u vy*|/Vi Illiciuo II1U
following conclusions may be drawn,
says W. D. Salmon, assistant animal
husbandman.
1. It is more profitable to hog
down corn than to hand-feed.
2. It is never economical to feed
corn to growing, fattening hogs without
a protein supplement, in some
form.
3. It is profitable to feed highpriced
meat meal or tankage when
hogging down corn.
4. It may be more profitable to
use forage crops as supplements
wnen hogging down corn.
5. Of the forage crops tried, rape
and pumpkins ranked first; soybeans,
second; cowpeas, third; and vetch
last. I
6. Instead of paying for having
the corn harvested, the farmers may
have the hogs do it for him and pay
him for the privilege.
1 Moralv-Let the pigs do it.

" "'T THE
LAW ^FUNCTIONS
In the ca8o of S. J. Kirby, C. O.
S'ox and Jesse Gapping, charged with
he atrocious murder of William Brasell,
a young taxicab driver of Coumbia,
the law has functioned swifty
and efficiently. The trial lasted le^s
han two days. The three men have
>een sentenced to die by electrocuion
on October 21.
That outcome has been reached in
iccord with the method which civilzation
prescribes for dealing with
nurderers. No other method could
lave accomplished anything more
These men will pay the due penalty
or their crime. The law ' has not
ailed. When it was given a chance,
t proved itself completely competent.
What more could anyone ask? Is
lot this outcome far preferable to
hat which mobs sought to bring
bout when they tried1 desperately to
yncb these three men? Yet it was
with the greatest difficulty that the
liw was aiTorded a chance to funcion
in this case, and the public was
reated to the humiliating spectacle
f officers of the law in flight before
he mob and "hiding out" their prisners
from it.
It is to be hoped that those citizens
f South Carolina who have seemed
a feel that they could transact the
iws' business better than the law
self will be impressed by the promptess
and the certainty with which the
