You must have something besides
cotton to sell. You must raise good
forage and feed stock of some sort.
One young farmer who adopted my
advice made seventy-fve bushels OF
oats per acre, and then cut two tons
Of cowpea hay from the same land
before frost. 1t would take a good
deal of even f1fteen-cent cotton to
pay as we'll, and at the same time, the
growing of these crops was part OF
the means used for getting his cot
ton crop up to more than a bale per
acre on land that when he begun
its improvement would not make a
fifth of a bale per acre.
With cowpeas and crimson clover
even the Indian corn crop becomes a
soil improver through the feeding of
the shredded stover added to the pea
hay and the cotton seed meal. 1t is
to the barnyard that we must look
for the future, and aided by the
barnyard, we can make the South
the greatest farming section of the
country.

Orangeburg Wants Road.

With the proposition of connecting
Ehrhardt and Bamberg by railroad,
comes some talk of continuing the
road from Bamberg and tap the A.
C. L. and thus by this means con-
meet Orangeburg with that section
of the State. AS it is now, the rail-
road connects Ehrhardt, WATERFORD
and on to Green Pond, but consider
able inconvenience is experienced In
getting to these places on account of
the fact that there is no connection
from Ehrhardt this way. The propo-
sition which is being agitated in
Bamberg is to connect that place
with Ehrhardt, which will mean the
building of a road about 16 miles
long.
Since this announcement Of the
proposed road, there has been some
talk in this city of making an effort
to have the road continued through
Bamberg to a point on the A. G. L..
which would bring the road to Cope,
and on over the main line Of the A.
C. L. to this city, and thus make
Orangeburg the terminal for this
branch. To bring the road on to the
A. C. L from Bamberg would mean
the building of only distance OF
four or five miles, and would mean
much to this city, to make this con-
nection provided the other road is
built. The A. G. L. would take over
the operation, and this would open
up this section Of the State In a
great measure and, offer greater ad-
vantages to reach those points which
are now accessible only in a round
about way.-Orangeburg Evening
News.

Run Over Negroes.

Savannah, Ca, April 1.-While
going at a very high speed on a part
of the Grand Prize race course near
Savannah early tonight, an automo-
bile in which were Alfred M. Mar
shall and Harry Noyes, well known
young society men, left the road and
struck first a small negro girl, then
a negro man, and later a negro Wo-
man on the sidewalk, plowed over
them, struck and killed a cow, pass
ed on and struck a second cow. This
ended the cars career as it went
with the second COW into a deep
ditch, turned over and badly injured
Noyes.
Police ambulances were hurried to
the scene. Noyes and Marshall both
resisted the officers but Noyes was
hurt and was sent to a hospital.
Marshall was arrested and is at po-
lice station tonight to remain until
the result Of the injuries to the three
negroes is known. They are all bad
" hurt and it is expected will die.
The car which had just been pur-
chased and was being tried out was

GRUBBs AND JOHNSON GUILTY.
Barnwell Negroes Must Serve Life
Term for Murder of Perry Ussery.

The case of Quitman Johnson and
Ferdinand Grubbs was finished last
week at Barnwell, when the jury
brought in a verdict of guilty with
recommendation to mercy. The evil
dence, as given in the case this time,
differed very little from that of the
first trial Only one of the defend
ants, Grubb, was put on the stand.
While contradicting his former testi-
mony in few immaterial points, he
held mainly to his story as told be-
fore. He declared that Johnson and
Kennedy were responsible for the
killing of Ussery and that he had
nothing to do with it,. According to
his statement, he is simply a victim
Of circumstances. He claims that
Kennedy hired Johnson to do the
killing and recited conversation he
heard Kennedy have with Johnson,
in which he stated that Kennedy told
Johnson he had killed the wrong
man, a good friend of his, and that
he must go back and get Holland.
The sentence Of Kennedy to life i'm
prisonment is said to have had
weight in saving the lives of the ne
groes.
The two prisoners have been car
ried to Columbia and commenced
their sentences, thus closing one Of
the most important criminal cases
tried in this section in years.

What we need to learn is, that
commercial fertilizers, properly used,
are a valuable adjunct to our home
made manures in the permanent up
building of the soil in humus, but
used merely, year after year, for the
production of something to sell OH
the land, they are the ruin Of the
soil and the farmer alike. And the
poorest farms and the poorest farm
ers in all the cotton belt are where
the most money has been spent for
commercial fertilizers with the one
idea Of making cotton to sell.
The all-cotton man must spend
more money because he has to buy
his nitrogen in a fertilizer, while the
good farmer gets his nitrogen free,
and for the same money gets twice
as much of the phosphoric acid and
potash he has to buy, and these stay
by him till used by the crops, while
the nitrogen does not.
The hardest thing to get the aver
age cotton planter to understand is,
that the use Of a rotation of crops
and the growing of legume forage
will enable him to reduce his cot
ton acreage and still make as much,
or more, cotton on one-third the land
than he has been making on the
whole. 1t is the man who takes
five acres to make a bale of cotton
who is keeping the Southern soil and
himself poor.

WOMAN KILLED AT MANNING.
Found in Door Of House with Head
Crushed.

Manning, April "A negro wo-
man named Annie Rodgers, about
thirty years old, was killed last night
in a tenant house, near Probate
Judge Windham's residence. She
was found about o'clock this morn
ing lying in the partly opened door,
with her head crushed, as if with an
axe. Apparently she had been call
ed to the door during the night and
struck down by some unknown
party. No disturbance was heard
by near neighbors, but Judge Wind
ham noticed that his bird dog was
acting in very excited manner
about 10 to IL o'clock. The woman
is said to have come from Sumter,
and had lived out in the country
until last Tuesday, when she moved
into the house in town, in which she
was killed.
It was at first thought that some
one who had known her elsewhere
had followed her here and commit
ted the deed, but later it was re-
ported that her mother had given her
thirty dollars with which to 60 back
to Sumter and, as no money has been
found about the house, it is possible
that the killing was done for the
purpose of robbery. The woman
leaves little girl four or five years
old, whose tracks were plainly shown
In her mothers blood on the floor.
Coroner Baggett instituted an in
quest, but sufficient evidence has not
yet been had to warrant finding a
verdict. A young negro named Ben
Miller was arrested on suspicion, he
having been seen about the premises
yesterday evening, but when ques-
toned about it he denied having been
there.

But l am glad to know that there
is a new spirit abroad in the South,
and the day is not far distant when a
farmer will be ashamed to tell you
that his land is poor, for our people
are fast coming to understand that II
a mans land remains poor it is the
fault of the man who farms it. The
Demonstration Work is doing great
good, and when they persuade farm
ers to carry the demonstration
through their whole farm work we
will have different times in the South
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1910-04-07


through their whole farm work we
will have different times in the South
do not believe that we will ever
see six-cent cotton again, because
the advances of the boil weevil will
make the culture too risky for any
but those who study the conditions
and take the best measures to over
come the difficulty. If the boil wee
vii ever reaches and thrives In the
upper section of the cotton belt, 1t
will be the end of cotton there, for
we can not, like Texas and the far
South, make an early crop ahead Of
the weevil. Hence the great impor-
tance of getting into a system OF
farming that will make the farmers
of the upper South Independent OF
cotton If they are driven out Of its
culture.
The advances of the boil weevil
does not mean that we should look
after new crops but that we should
farm well with the old ones. The
farmers, and there are very few
of them, who have made two bales
to two and half per acre, have not
done it by simply piling on fertiliz-
ers, but by adopting a course of soil
Improvement that has increased the
productiveness of their land while
paying for the improvement.

Declare Stock Dividends.

Spartanburg, March 31.-1t Is
stated on excellent authority that at
a recent meeting of the directors of
the Woodruff cotton mills it was de-
cided to declare a stock dividend of
SO per cent. This means that the
stock of the mill will be worth S125.
It is also understood that similar
stock dividends will be declared at
an early date by the Victor and
Monaghan mills Aug. w. Smith, of
Spartanburg, is president of the
Woodruff mill and Lewis w. Parker
of Greenville is head Of the Victor

Another Lily White Effort?

Columbia, April 2.-What may
amount to very little or may portend
some future hold by the Republican
party in this State, in slight meas
lure, is the significance of the gather
Ing here to-day of postmasters, South
Carolina appointees and friends OF
Ex-Internal Revenue Commissioner
John G. Capers. In his room at
local hotel tonight, in conference
with some of his followers, Capt.
Capers did not care to discuss the
situation, but the main points in the
movement are available for publica-
ton. Postmaster Harris, of Charles
ton, was not among those present at
the conference, but there were about
twelve postmasters from other towns
OF the State.
There is an understanding that L.
G. w. Blalock, of Goldville, will be
In the lists for collector Of revenue in
this State. 1t is also announced in
the local afternoon paper that DR.. B.
p. Clayton, of Charleston, is being
considered, and also that there is a
possibility of Major Jenkins losing
out. Mr.. Jenkins will probably have
something to say later on.
Inaugurating campaign to make
q LILLY White" party is admittedly
the purpose tonight of the gather
Ing. It is hoped to accomplish this
by applying Section of the State
party law in seating delegates in the
State Convention next fall. This Sec
ton requires delegates to be regis
tered voters or to make satisfactory
: showing that they were Improperly
refused registration. The meeting
adjourned after signing a letter to
National Committeeman Capers as
follows;
sDear Sir: In obedience to a re-
quest from you we have assembled
together to confer with you in regard
to the advancement of Republican
principles in South Carolina and the
building up strong, active and will
ing Republican party in this State.
We feel that such a condition can be
developed and consumated under the
laws of the party which we adopted
at our past State Conventions. 1t is
contended by many, and we are in
formed has been stated by the presl-
dent, that you and Major L. w. c.
Blalock are the leaders of a party
composed almost entirely OF the COL
ored race. Our presence here to-day
is a strong and emphatic denial OF
this untruth. There are thousands
of the best white men Of this State
who, like us, are willing to follow
your leadership in all earnest efforts
to better the conditions Of our party,
and to this end we pledge ourselves,
and will do anything to perform all
that we can, to accomplish this pur-
pose."

SHEEP QUEEN OF WYOMING.
Sheared $4,000 Head This Year at
Her Kirby Creek Ranch.

OF course the country could not
get along without a sheep queen,
and the throne of Natrona county is
occupied by Mrs. C. C. Moore, who
has ranch on Kirby Creek,
where she sheared $4,000 head this
year, with an averaged IL pounds
of wool per head, and sold it at % H
cents a pound, which if you ever
studied arithmetic, makes out a
handsome income for the good lady.
She is the richest woman in Wyom-
ing, worth about one-half million
dollars in sheep and lands and real
estate in Casper, Cheyenne, Los
Angeles and other cities. She has a
winter home at Los Angeles where
she lives four or five months every
year, and spends her summers on the
range. She formerly camped all
summer long with her sheep in an
ordinary camp wagon and looked
after them herself. Then she built
house in Casper, but had to give
it up because it was selected as the
site for new $150,000 postoffice
building, which Senator Warren has
secured to his loyal supporters in
this town.
But Mrs. Moore has had troubles,
like the rest of US. About 20 years
ago she lost every sheep in her focks
except about ESQ by a cloudburst
which washed them into eternity,
but she gathered that little bunch to-
gether, drove them into the noun
tains herself and attended strictly to
business until she recovered her for
tune and had acquired twice as many
sheep as she lost.
When Mrs. Moore first came to
Wyoming, about rs years ago she
was the wife of Mr.. Morrison, a
sheep man, who died in 1899. A
year later she married c. G. Moore,
who was herding a band of her sheep
on shares, and he has been partner
instead of hired hand ever since,
but she runs all the business; she
wouldn't trust anyone to manage her
affairs, and not only has remarkable
executive ability, but Is considered
one of the best sheep farmers in Wy
oming, and has the reputation OF
getting as much out Of her flocks
as any man in the territory. Her
husband is a sort of genteel assist
ant; her son is running" sheep for
his mother on shares; one daughter
is married to a lawyer at Casper,
another to a farmer in Fremont and
a third to a merchant at Sheridan,
all Of them enterprising and prosper
GUS young men, who are able to take
care of themselves and their families
and ask no assistance from their
mother-in-law.
Mrs. Moore Is by no means con-
spicuous woman, Notwithstanding
her. wealth, ability and influence.
She dresses modestly, keeps out from
under the electric lights, never
makes splurge, never goes where
she Is not wanted and is quiet,
dignifed, well-read, intelligent wo-
man. She travels a good DEAL has
been everywhere in Europe and has
been around the world.
Mrs. Moore is the only important
wool-grower in this part Of the coun-
try who doesn't take an active part In
politics. Although women can vote
and hold offices in Wyoming, she
never attends campaign meetings
and never goes to the polls.-W. e.
Curtin, in Chicago Record-Herald.
