In November of 1857 he was called by
the board of trustees Of Newberry col
lege to assist Rev. Mr.. Whittle in
teaching the preparatory department
of the college. He was student OF
the college in 1859 and 1860.
In 1861 he entered the Confederate
army. ,.'.-'
He studied theology at odd times
under DR.. J. p Smeltzer as he had op-
portunity and entered the Lutheran
ministry in 1864:
Rev. Mr.. Sigh was Installed pastor
of St. Paul's on the second Sunday IN
November, 1865, and has served this
congregation nti4S1ously since and
will. at the conclusion of his fortieth
wear commence another year. During
these many years he has held to a re-
markable degree the affection of thess
good people.
In connection with his work as pas
tor at St. Paul's he has served as pas
tor or supply: Prosperity, St. Luke(s'
St. Matthews, Colony, Mt. Tabor, St.

berry county, and Macedonia, St.
Tohn's (Calk's Road) and Rightwell

While Mr.. Sigh has been active IN
the work of the church and matters
educational, having been a life long
friend Of Newberry college and Tor
twenty-five or more years either Sec
retary or president of the board OF
trustees, he has found time to devote
to matters Of state. He has served

Among the earliest Lutheran set
Elements in South Carolina were those
in tine Dutch Fork Of. Newberry and
Lexington counties. Newberry cots1l-
tv has long been considered the CEN
Ter of Lutheranisn1.. IN: South Carolina.
The Newberry college is :located
at the county seat and for several
years the theological seminary was
there also. But long before there
was Lutheran congregation or a
Lutheran church at the court house
there was established in the Dutch
Fork several strong congregations.
In fact pastor of one of these, Rev.
T. S. Boinest Of Bethlehem, organized
the Newberry Lutheran congregation,
and was its. first pastor.
The German settlements Of the
Dutch Fork constituted some OF the
best citizens of South Car1lina-
sturdy, frugal, Industrious they
they followed their pursuits in q quiet
way and attended to their own busi-
ness, but took very little interest IN
matters political. By that is meant
they rarely aspired to political office
and for many years the politics OF
Newberry county was dominated by
those who lived in the upper and mid
die sections and it was very rare that
a county officer came from the Dutch
Fork section.
That has been somewhat changed
since the war. THE people have given
more attention to education and as is
told in another article in this paper
St. PauIs community has Sent more
young men to Newberry college than
possibly any other eonsssssssssssty ID the
state. -; :. - -
For the fourth time the Lutheran
SYNOD of South Carolina will meet
with St. Paul's congregation on to-
morrow.
..: Though this congregation is prob
ably more than two hundred years Old
it is a remarkable fact that it has had
fewer number of pastors than many
congregations not one-tenth its age.
From The records it has been: served
bv Revs. Wallern, Rauch, Aull, An
ttony, Stingley, Berry (Wm), Mar
CART, Blackwelder and Sigh and pos
sibly in its early HISTORY by one or
two Others. 1t should be remembered,
however, that for one-hfth of the time
mentioned as covering the history OF
existence of the congregation, 1t has
been served by its present pastor:
the Rev. J. A. Sigh.
The present building was dedicated

in 1890 and erected about the same
time. At that time the Rev. VIM.
Berly was the pastor.
The house has recently been re-
paired and repainted at cost of about
$500.
The old church was built of logs
and stood about $50 yards from the
site OF the present building.
The recollection of the writer in re-
gard to the present building reaches
back to the beginning of the pastor
ate of Rev. Mr. Sigh, and in fact to
Mr.. Blackwelder. We are told that
we were baptized by Rev. J. P. Mar
gart during his pastorate and We were
confirmed in this church. Our father
at that time lived only about one and
a half miles from the church, on the
place where he was born and which
still belongs to him, SO the reader can
understand the interest We feel in this
congregation and the old church, and
the pastor. In those days there was
the old sounding bell over the pulpit
and the tall box pulpit. When Rev.
Mr.. Boinest or Rev. A. D. L. Moser
would preach in this pulpit they would
have to stand on a block and then
their. ct1ins would just come above
the top of the pulpit. That is all gone
now and a modern pulpit and altar
|. take the place.. The old hook to
which the sounding bell hung is still
in the ceiling. Then the doors enter
ed at the side of the church under
small porticos and the side where the
women sat there was a long bench
outside the church under the oaks and
hickory trees for their comfort when
babies became too unruly to remain
in the church. It was also observed
on a visit there last week that the old
horseblocks for the convenience OF
the women are torn away which
means that horseback riding is no
longer the custom but the people now
20 to church in their buggies and car
riages.
The same old school house is there
! and the spring a few hundred yards
away though many of the oaks and
hickory trees are gone. Many a game
of marbles have we played under these
old trees at the dinner hour when a
pupil in the old school house.
Rev. Mr.. Sigh was our first teach
er. He boarded at my fathers for
: two years and took me TO school with
him though then most too young to
attend school. After that there were
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1905-11-07

and Tucker Livingstone and Wal
ter Counts and some of those
other old men who were at school
there to Mr. Sigh we almost feel
that we are not as young as we used
to be. It must be remembered, how
ever, that we were the baby in thar
school and that those names we have
mentioned were some years our
senior We should not omit w. B
Boinest and Ed. Hipp for Shey were
there too.
We are glad Synod is going to meet
there again and we hope to be with
them and get better acquainted with
some of the children and grandchil-
dren of the boys we have mentioned
Mr.. Sligh's pastorate of forty years
in the service of one congregation is
very remarkable one and we doubt
if it has a pa<allel. There is Luth-
eran pastor in Virginia who has serv-
ed one congregation for 3S years. 1t
is fitting too that the Synod should
meet here on the anniversary of the
completion of. this forty years of SER
vice.
The Rev. J. A. Sigh, the present
pastor of St. Paul's church was born
at the place and nearly on the spot
where Capt. H. H. Folk now lives
about four miles north of Newberry
on the I2th>day of December, 1885.
When yet a boy he became: -11e1?7-
Der of Beth Eden Lutheran church.
He attended school at Beth Eden
and other places in the community,
his preceptors being Mr.. Bulyer, W.
w. Houseal, Mrs. Wilson, William
Henry Wilson, E. Williams,
Rev. Jacob Hawkins and OTHERS.
He then entered the school, at Lex
ington, S. C., which afterwards be-
came Newberry college in January
1855 and continued there until 1857.

Washing Milk Utensils.

MIX utensils should be washed
first in tepid water, and good stiit
brush should be kept handy for the
purpose of scrhbbing at this stage OF
the cleansing operations. Soda dis
solved in warm water greatly helps
matters at this time, especially 1t
the milk utensils have stood dirty
for some time. In bottling plants
where the bottles come back with
the milk stuck to them that has
been there for day or So the bottles
are soaked in water for several
hours, soda having been first dis
solved in the water. In the bright
ening of such vessels, salt is one of
the best things to be used for scour-
ing. In the cleansing of milk YES
sells, cloths should be avoided, and
they should certainly never be used
to wipe the vessels dry. They are
likely to contain too many germs to
make their use safe. These germs
will be for the most part of Tactic
acid ferments, those naturally found
in milk and harmless, but they will
start the new milk to souring, which
of course is 70 be avoided in most
cases.

Hauling Manure,

Durlng the winter every pregres-
sive farmer should be planning and
getting things together to make
work as easy as possible when
springs work begins, says George G.
Reynolds. IN the Epitomist. The
farmes who makes it q business to
haul his barry ard manure out on
she land while covered with snow is
taking one long step towards put
sing in profitable winters work.
This not only makes the work easi-
or, but on the other hand, gets the
manure where il will do the most
possible good as a fertilizer. Some
farmers are averse to hauling ma
nure and spreading it on the snow,
because they think when the spring
break up GENES the non-porous con-
dition of the soil permits the wash
ing away of a large percentage of
the fertilizer value of manure.
There is no question but what a
percentage of rhe manure value is
lost through washing at this time of
the year, but experiments go TO
show that a much. larger percentage
is lost before it reaches the field
than after it is spread upon the
land Last winter, feeling that
there was some reason to believe
there might be more loss caused 10y
smashing than one might suppose, j

Many small things will make a
large result. If every farmer would
plant an improved variety of corn
that would add only one more grain
to each ear the total would be $780,

ding one kernel to each ear, so says

spent for additional feed 1t is meyer
a long investment. Returns are OBJ
tanned at the end of the month. Any
feed dealer will carry farmers ac-
count for month and when the

determined to settle the matter Tor
myself by trying little experiment.
There is no reason why any farmer
need trust TO what others say re-
garding the matter, when oil his
own farm at no expense, expert
ments can be conducted that will
settle the matter for always. When
the snow is foot deeper haul out
five or ten loads on the land that is
to be plowed the coming spring and
give the matter careful test. Att
er the snow is gone down to about
five inches on the level, haul out
like number of loads and spread as
near as possible to the manure pre-
viously hauled out. Then again
after the snow has all gone, and the
ground settles in the spring, repeat
the same number Of loads near that
which was spread on the snow.
Stake off the strips so that there
will be no mistakes made, and note
carefully the growth, color and gen.
eral development of the crop. If 1t
is possible to have the crop OF corn
it will be much easier to distinguish
the difference If there should be any.
The experiment conducted on my
own farm proved very favorable to
hauling manure and spreading on
snow, but as all experiments do not
result the same under varying con-
ditlons advise every farmer to
give the matter thorough trial on
his own land,

Cows are creatures of habit, and
this applies as much to their food as
to anything else. A change of feed
frequently means falling off in the
amount of milk the animals pro-
duce, and this occurs, too, in rela-
tion to the most suceulent of foods.
No food is considered better for
cows than Juae grass, yet promi-
nent dairvman informs the writer
that when his COWS are changed
from silage to pasture they invaria-
bly, fall off temporarily In their
milk flow. He says that the same
true If he changes from old to fresh
