being Effected IN Milbask.
r B.. Roberts in travelling over
the country and coming in con-
tact with boy scouts, became in
terested in the movement, and
with Harry Pawson has com
menced the organization of a
troopo # boy scouts in Milbank
The organization is intended to
supplement other educational
agencies, and to learn boys to do
for themselves and others, to af-
ford out of,door recreations and
inspire a,loye for nature and help
the boys to the cultivation of the
manly virtues. The twelve points
of the boy scout law are:
/ A scout is trust worthy.
2 A scouts loyal.
8 Ascout is helpful.
4 Kscout is friendly
- .A"scbut is courteous.
6 A scout is kind.
A'ScOlt rs Obedlent.
8 A scout is cheerful.
9 A scout is thrifty.
10. A. scout is brave.
II A scout is clean
IL "A scout is reverent
There are three classes in the
organization, the tenderfoot, the
second class scout and the first
class scout. and each boy must
qualify himself by proof OF his
ability to- do certain practical
things before he can be advanced
to a higher class.
Harry Pawson has been made
Scout-M faster and will instruct
the boys in camp life duties, the
tying of the several kinds of
knots and other practical things.
DR.. Flett has been engaged to IN
struct them in first aid to the
injured, and other friends will be
called upon to help the boys in
various capacities,
No fee is required for joining,
but there may be some small ex-
penses for uniforms or other
matters later.
The following boys have signi-
fed their intention of enrolling
themselves and it is expected
that there will at least be two
patrols of eight each in a short
time: Harvey Bingham, Ray
mond Bingham, Ray Roberts,
Elmer Skoog, Arlo Allen, Walter
Rourk, Fred Chapman, Francis
Michigan, Gene Fitch, Francis
Roggenbock and Elmer Reeves.
The organization meeting was
held at the First National bank
last Tuesday evening, but the
boys are going to apply for use
of the lower library room for a
regular meeting place.

OATS AND VETCH.
n suggestion rs to How the Acre of
Land Should be Prepared for Oats
and Vetch to Win the $50 Prize The
City National Bank has offered.

Mr.. @. a. Lennon, Sumter, S. c.
Dear Sir: To plant these two
crops together, is what l have long
advocated. Ana | will now trv r.
! give Tor the benefit of all concerned d
some views which may be beneficial
In the planting and treatment of these
crops.
FIRST. 1T is absolutely necessary ia
prepare good seed bed, just as YOU
would In your garden for vegetables.
Burn oat straw and vetch vines and
make an analysis of the ash and Won
Will find that potash is the chief in
gredient, therefore, if the land to no
planted is deficient in potash We must
supply 1t. If the land contains suffi-
cinet potash we must then find some
way to iiberate the natural supply so
as to make it available for the grow
ing crop.
Now. taking it for granted that Won
are planting your oats on land fol-
lowing a pea crop, which is the best.
because the pea, being a leguminous
plant, has stored vast deal of nitro
gen In your soil for the benefit Of
the coming crop, especially if the peas
nave been inoculared when planted.
Also the stubble and vines are there
ready to your hand to supply all Of
the phosphoric acid and potash. not
all you need though for perfect s,,c-
cess; therefore broadcast all the cot
ton seed, wood rakings. stable and
barnyard manure that you can get.
Now you are ready for the plow.
Bear in mind that oats have no tap
roots and that while you want Your
land plowed deep, you do not want
your fertilizers turned down to the
bottom OF your seed bed. l would say
let your turn plOw. single, or double,
go about four inches deep and close
together leaving no bone. Follow this
with bull tongue or subsoil plow in
each furrow of the turn plow.
After this broadcast at least 1000

The Short Ballot Bulletin.
| Sumter, S. c., has already begun to
see results from the inauguration Of
it's new city manager plan.
In this city it was found, for several
reasons, that the regular commits

principally because it was found i'm

them efficiently. The idea of single

elected to govern. One of i.iu~l
former mayor and the chief advocate
of the new system. Another is
banker, and the third is prominent
merchant. 1t is practically certain,
according to local information, that
duced to accept public office, had they
been compelled to give up a large
share of their time to public business.
The next step will be the selection
Of city manager and it is not un-
likely that the columns of some of
our leading newspapers and muni-
cipal journals will present the unique
spectacle in this country Of city ad-
