BACK TO THE FARM
THamntop Chronfc1a.


Every day develops 'hack-to-t the
farm" screech. Usually the screecher
is theorist who knows less about ag-
riculture than the people he is urging
to adopt 1t as means Of subsistence
and in nine cases out Of ten he would
not stay on farm himself unless sub
sequently to an interview with the
coroner and after being decently in
tered These back-to- thefarm scream
ers are well-intentioned hut visionary
bunch. They cherish the idea that II Is
only necessary to get possession Of a
farm and nature will do the rest. Those
who try farming on that method usu-
ally quit in sadoer but wiser mood.
The average urban failure is as little
versed in the essentials of agriculture
as politician in the ways Of honesty.
and sending him back to the farm
would be bad policy. both for himself
and the community. Successful people
in town are usually content to let we'll
enough alone.
The farm is the place for the skilled
farmer and any zap cherishing the IL
fusion that farming does not require
skill had better try his hand at it for
a while: establishment will be speedy.

We want you to be an exporter.
1T has been conservatively estimat-
ed that there is an annual drain of
nearly two millions of dollars for
dairy products of the State of
South Carolina. South Carolina loses
that much in one line of agricultural
activity, directly or indirectly, in a
years time. Think how our State
would grow if that much more money
could be kept in circulation within
her borders. South Cardinals people
sent out to other States about one
million dollars directly every year for
an article of necessity which could
be produced more cheaply in this
State than in those to which the mon
ey is sent"

Great State Wide Sunday
School Campaign.
Sumter County Association Hold Its Convention On De
cember 5th-Plans for Campaiqn

Beginning at Spartanburg, Novem-
Der 2Sth, and ending at Rock Hill,
December Sth, there will be great
Sunday School campaign touching ten
Of the principal cities of the State.
Spartanburg, Greenville, Newberry,
Union, Columbia, Charleston, Sumter.
Florence, Conway and Rock Hill. This
campaign is being conducted under
the direction of the South Carolina
Sunday School Association, and is the
first tour of the kind ever inaugurated
in the State.
Mr. W. c. Pearce, of Chicago, ILL.,,
has been secured for this tour. Mr..
Pearce is Associate General Secre-
tary of the International Sunday
School world today. He has given his
life to the study of Sunday School
problems and knows his work as few
men do. His splendid insight into hu-
man nature, his keen humor, MS great
personal magnetism and his splendid
address make him a speaker much in
demand. Mr.. Pearce is no stranger
in South Carolina. He has visited the
State several times before, being at
the last State Sunday School Conven-
ton at Sumter. Those that have
heard him are eager to hear again,
and those who have not, have a rare
treat in store.
Associated with Mr.. Pearce in this
campaign will be some Of the best
known Sunday School men in the
State. Rev. w. I. Herbert, President
Of the State Association, Rev. w. II.
K. Pendleton, Chairman Of the State
Executive committee, also DR. E. ..
Watson and Hon. Horace L. Bomar,
for some points Of the tour.
The general theme of the cam
paign will be Sunday School Evan
gelism." and methods Of ingathering
will be discussed and practical meas
ures suggested. Out Of the white
population Of 679,162 in South Caro-
The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1913-11-22

INA there are 50O,89O still untouch-
ed by the Sunday School enrolment
including all denominations. Since
80 per cent Of the church membership
of the different churches come
through the Sunday Schools, it can
readily be seen how large a field is
open to this phase of Christian work.
1T is large contract to try to reach
more than 5O0,Ss0 people through
the teaching service of the church, but
in this day Of big things the Sunday
School has it's part. William T. Ell
lis has said that the greatest enter
prise on the face of the earth today
is the Characterization of America be-
cause America is the base of supplies.
The reaching of the unreached in
South Carolina will not only be a bet
terment Of civic conditions, but will
make this State force in the evan
gelization Of the world.
The plans for the campaign in the
different cities are being laid with
great care. Spartanburg, Greenville
and Columbia are already planning
for bancuets or luncheons where the
business men Of those cities are to be
given an opportunity to meet Mr..
Pearce socially.
The Sumter County Sunday School
association will hold it's convention in
conjunction with this campaign on
December 5th. All the Sunday schools
in the county are urged to send dele
gates. Entertainment will be provid-
ed and every one is assured Of a pleas
ant and profitable time.
Send names Of delegates to Mr.. Bar
tow Walsh. Chairman Of the Enter
tainment Committee.
Printed programs will be ready for
distribution in few days. Write the
President, Rev. w. I. Herbert, or c.
A. Witherspoon, Secretary, for as
many copies as can be used advan-
tageously.

DAIRYING ALONG THE SEABO.ARD
Encouraging of Live Stock Industry
Also Feature of Campaign to Ben
eft Farmers OF South Carolina.

Just at this time no industrial
movement means more to the farmers
or South Carolina than dairying and
live stock development, and those who
take advantage OF the valuable as
sistance offered in fostering this in
dustry are bound to receive manifold
benefits. The development of this in
dustry throughout South Carolina will
provide lasting return for many of
the farmers, will improve their stock
breeds, will put more money in cir
culation and will help to bring up the
soil fertility. These things mean bet
ter conditions for the farmers and
the enhancement of the values of
farm lands. AS part of a campaign
to encourage dairying and livestock
development in this State, Mr.. H. T.
Prosser, agriculturist of the Seaboard
Air Line Railroad, in a series of arti-
cles dealing with the subject, will tell
how these industries may be develop
ed and the results as indicated above
accomplished, also how his road pro-
poses to cooperate with those farm
ers who desire to better their cOndi-
tions. Mr.. Prossers first article fol-
