12. II. AULL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at Ncv berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. "' iday, May 8, 1908. There coi, be little doubt that majority of the democratic voters < South Carolina favor Wm. J. Brya ior president. That may be becau; lie is better known than any othi democrat and because he has visitc South Carolina several times an many of our people have heard hi and have met him and lie is a lit character and a very able man. It alright and proper for the county coi ventions to endorse him for the nom nation and it will he entirely propc for the State convention to do so hi we d<> not think it would be wise t try to bind the delegates to the Ni tional convention by instructions. Lt rlif convention send delegates to Dei ver in whom the democracy has coi fidence and let them know who is th preference but leave them free tovot forworn other candidate if after the go I to the national convention the are convinced that by the nornim tion of some one else there will 1) greater probability of success for tli ticket in the election. We do not know aud no one can te what conditions may be when the m tional convention meets, and w sliuulil not lie the hands of our del', ga I cs, further I ban by an expressio of our choice. Whoever is nominated by the coi wnl ion will receive the vote of Soul <'aroliua. REDUCE ACREAGE. We print a second article from M I. A. Taylor, president of the Nalioi il dinners unsocialion, urging II fanners fo reduce I heir acreage i coiiun an<| if iliey have planted mm than they should to lei some remai mi w orked. The II .'raid and News h; iirued lliis from tim,. (<? time and no onl\ <|e>ires In i';i 11 the attention ? the fanners to I Ire reasons given li Mr. Taylor fur 111. advice which ) oilers. 11 is good advice and if fo lowed the farmers could tix the pri? of cotton ami .net for il something i lire neighborhood of what il costs I irrow it. Do not conclude that n your neighbors are going to redui ihe acreage and you will get the a< vantage of l-he advanced price on i increased acreage. Cooperation necessary. We began in last Friday's Hera and News the publication of ;i sloi written by Mrs. Kthel Thomas, AVest Knd. This story appeared The Herald and News some years ai but il is a good slorv and will bej repeating. We shall from time time during the summer run a stoi from the pen of Mrs. Thomas. SI writes well and her stories all have good moral lesson. We call the attention of our fan ers to ihe article in this issue on 11 subject of stock raising in South Ca olina by W. W. IVice and ask tin they look at the figures given by tl government. .lusi think of a lilt Slate like South Carolina sending oi ev.-ry year ijst.OOO.OlH) lor horses at innIes and Irving to raise cotton f< less llian cost (o pay for lliein. \\ could raise a great many of Ihe; horses and mules right here and i greater profit than we grow cot to Dul lliis is not all. Not only do v s-ml this la rye sum oul of the K|a lor horses and mules but we also sen off for the bay and corn to feed thei lliis we should and can grow rigl here. Not only would il be well f< South Carolina to reduce Ihe aereai in cotton in order to secure belli prices, but we should do il for 11 purpose of giving more attention i slock raising and to the growing < corn and hay with which lo feed tl stock. Another mailer thai should ha1 the attention of our fanners is 11 .raising of cattle. It is a very dil cult matter to secure native beef ai uiosl ot t iiat that is sold in our mar els is Western beef. We believe would pay to raise more beef cattl These are mailers our farmers shou consider.
