Lard rs nll URgucnt.

The Scientific american gives the
following valuable hint which is worth
remembering:
''It is we'll known that rubbing the
body with hogs fat has the effect of
reducing the temperature of the skin
in scarlet fever. A gentleman Of our
acquaintance has used the fat portion
of smoked ham with beneficial results,
and writes to the editor to dissem-
mate the fact for others benefit. A
celebrated German physician recon-
mends to incorporate one or two gram
mes of carboiic acid into o1e hundred
grammes of lard, AID, with this, to
rub the whole body, excepting
the head, two or three times day,
according to the intensity Of infanma-
ton characterizing the case in hand.
The effect Of this kind of treatment
is to produce pleasant feeling of
coolness, to keep the skin softer, and
after each application the tempe
rature ofthe skin falls somewhat. The
carbolic acid operates to destroy the
germs and spores of the disease"

Enlargement OF the Herald.


With much pleasure we announce
to the readers Of the HERALD, that
after one more issue in its present
size, the paper will appear in larger
form and much more improved III ap-
pearancc. It will contain THIRTY
SIX COLUMNS, TWENTY-FIVE INCHES
IL LENGTH, instead of :hirty-two COL
uuns Of twenty-five inches, thereby
having a capacity of over EIGHT
COLUMNS MORE than it nov has
The question may be asked why this
Increased size, aud out!ay-for of
course it will involve much expense
to which We answer, to make the
Newberry HERALD second to no couu-
ty paper in the State, and more
worthy of the patronage of the people
of Newberry, aud one which they will
be proud of, aud more eagerly look
for. It is true the panic has nearly
taken the little wind out of our sails,
left in them by the hard summer
through which We have passed, but we
have had the matter in contemplation
for some time; it is hobby, too, to
place the HERALD in the front rank.
and We shall carry it into execution
in spite of panics, no money, and all
that sort Of trouble, and we feel con-
6dent the County of Newberry will
sustain US. No labor or expense shall
be spared to make it worthy, in its
filing as well as size, either. But to
carry out the project, and to make it
the success that it must be, We look
for hearty support, and ask for every
man who is not now taking this or
any other paper to subscribe at once.
Remember, We do not increase the
price, we only make the HERALD
larger for the same low sum- In two
weeks then from this day, if no un-
foreseen accident occurs, the HERALD
will come out in. its new, large size;
and in the interval, We ask our friends
to interest themselves in gaining US as
many new subscribers as possible, and
after that to continue doing so-for
we will need every one which can be
obtained, to help meet the heavy ex-
penses to be incurred.
Our merchants aud business men,
generally, too, viii appreciate the pro-
posed improvement, for they will see
at glance that as an Advertising
medium, the facilities obtained
through larger list of readers will
be decidedly to their advantage.
Send in your names, and commence
with the first paper in new form.
Past due subscribers will much
oblige by settling THEIR dues

an Extra Session.

It is now certain that the Leyisla-
ture will convene in extra session On
Tuesday, the 2lst instant. There arc
grave interests which demand action
at the hands Of the Assembly. and it
ia stated that an extra meeting Is ne
cessury. One Of the most urgent mat
te-s is the adoption of some arrange
ment in regard to the public debts.
We trust that some good may cventu-
ate to the State, and we shall wait for
the result.

Sounds Like q Fiction.

It is no rare thing to see notices
from English papers calling for heirs
to large landed estates, Or fabulous
sums Of money, the care Of which
trouble the holders thereof so much,
that they can find no rest until the
rightful owners come forward aud lay
claims thereto Only the other day it
was noticed that somebody was wanted
to come in and possess large amount,
left to some charitable Institution as a
fund, and which, owing to the demise
of the institution, had considerably
accumulated, and was now suffering
for an owner. This is in England,
and We could not help contrasting
that happy condition with the modus
operandi in bleeding South Carolina.

How quickly they would be swallowed
up, spirited away. Alas, alas. Just
fancy how the carpet bags would open
their capacious jaws, and how quick

lieve the notices published are real,
but are intended to take somebody in.
The idea of money going begging

About the Crop.

As every item Of intelligence IN re-
ference to cotton is Of interest, and
expressly at this time, we copy the
following from the monthly report
of the department of Agriculture for
September, covering the prospect in
this State as to the counties named:
Orangeburg-Rusted; t he rain
threatens to reduce the yield; caterpil-
lars at work; but the crop is too far
advanced for much injury from them.
Clarendon-Injured by excessive rain,
rust and casting of fruit very general.
Fuirfeld-lucreased acreage lost by
lack Of working; much upland cotton
has taken new growth, and will be
too late for fraitipg. Chesterfield
Reduced ten per cent. by excessive
rain, causing an extensive shedding
of bolls. Marion-Too wet for cot
ton; rust On thin lands; on highly
nianured lands the bolls rot as they ma
ture. Lexiugton-Excessive rain
causes too much weed and shedding
of young bolls; seed from the depart
,Dcnt show marked superiority.
Richi2ad-Caterp;llars are all over
the County; damage not yet Develop
ed. WilliaGsburg-Much injured by
rains; sorms falling, caterpillars de-
structivc. YOrk-Exccssiye August
rains caused MUCH casting " fruit;
crop declining from its high condition.
Marlboro-Heavy rains have brought
rust ard shedding of forms in sandy
lands; worms destructive on bottom
lands. Laurens-Ouened three weeks
late; large growth to shed; worms and
rot developed. Union-Acreag g e
somewhat increased; more commercial
fertilizers than usual; short of labor
dgeSeld-~Inj4red ten per cent. by
rust; due to guano. Taking all the
States together, the report holds that
the present season can scarcely be
deemed quite an average one for cot
ton; but when We recall the fact that
drought, severe rains, wind storms,
insects: rast-all these or most of
Of them are recorded of every crop
that is made, it will be seen that sea-
sons worse than the present are al
most as numerous as those that are
better, Should the autumn prove
unusually savorablo, an average yield
might yet be obtsined:
As to the corn crop, the report is
only meagerly as follows:
Fair6eld-A complete failure on
river and creek bottoms. Clarendon. -
Shortened by early drought. Berthe
Very good. York-Rapidly improv-
ing. Orsugeburg-Yield light; fod-
der inferior. Edgefeld-Good aver

South Carolina Monument Asso-
chiffon.

C&utROH.
The board of Directors of the South
Carolina Monument Association desire
again to bring before the people of the
State the work in which they are en-
gagged. They have bought and paid
for most eli giblc site in Columbia
for the erection of the monument
that commanding eminence so we'll
known as :'Tsylor's Hill," and have
entered into contract with an artist
in Louisville kentucky, for the con-
structiou Of the monument : the gran
ite to be furnished from our own
State quarry, and the marble from
the famous quarries of Carrara, Italy,
where the marble part Of the work will
be executed. In April, 1874, the cor
ner-stone of the monument will be laid,
and then the Board will feel that
large part of their labor of love has
been accomplished. There remains,
however, $4,000 more to b. raised be-
fore the work can be completed, and
it is earnestly hoped that this sum
will soon be made up, and this last
tribute paid to our honored dead and
the principles for which they. died.
The women of South Carolina, who
have assumed this sacred task, do not
feel that this work conflicts in any way
with the duty they owe to the widows
aud orphans of our fallen heroes; in
decd, the Monument Association is,
in great measure, composed Of these
bereaved ones, aud there is scarcely
one member to whom the Southern
cause is not doubly sacred from its
having cost her the life. blood of her
dearest and best. While, therefore,
they feel it proud privilege to as
sist the widow and orphan Of the
Confederate soldier, they know that
this is privilege, in its very nature
transitory, and they would, in the en-
during granite and marble, place on
record, before coming generations,
their undyiug fidelity to the principles
of South Carolina in her best days,
and their gratitude to the men who
died to ,peiutain them. Confidently,
then, the Board of Directors appeal ttee, tee,
the women of the State to rally once
more to their aid. $500 from each
District will give them the required
sum. Surely, for this small sum they
will not appeal in vain.
The ladies of Columbia will again
open bazaar, during the fair, in that
portion Of the fair building allotted to
them by the courtesy Of the officers of
the South Carolina Agricultural and
Mechanical Association. Ccntribu-
tions Of any kind will be gratefully
received, and may be sent to either of
the following Board Of Directors ::
