Very little good it will do this section, as
most of the cotton is sold.
A considerable acreage in oats is being
planted in this county this fall, and as a
general thing they will be needed. Fall

The farmer who has his smoke-house

1t is to be regretted that Bamberg
county was not represented IN the I'M

the plan proposed by Mr.. Matheson seems
to be practicable one.
1t is impossible for any one man to
know everything that happens, even IN
town the size Of Bamberg, and an editor
is no exception to the rule. Therefore,
we will appreciate it if items of local
interest should be handed us.
Remember that you can get The BAN
BERG HERALD and the Twice-a- Week

They all cost less than three cents a
