CHAMBER OF COMMERCE NOTES
Tobacco Market Boosting Trip to BE
Made OH "Wednesday, July 21st.

On next Wednesday, JULY 21st the
business men of Sumter will pull off
their second annual tobacco market
and trade boosting trip. These an
nual booster excursions, while of
course somewhat actuated by busi-
ness motives, are not altogether mer-
cenary by any means, the purely So
cial features appealing greatly to the
Sumter business men who participate.
The very cordial welcome extended
the citizens of Sumter last July on
the first of these business trips. and
the hospitable entertainment by their
good friends, ladies and gentlemen,
of the country districts is in reality.
more than aynthing else respsonbile
for the repetition Of the visit this
summer.
1t is possible however to combine
business with pleasure, and with mu-
tual advantage to both sides. The
farmers have tobacco to sell, and the
Sumter business men want that to-
bacco. The Sumter merchants have
merchandise to sell. and the farm
ers and their families want the mer-
chandise.
Hence a reciprocal commercial in
ltercOurse.
That it does great deal of good
for the business men of any city to
visit their country friends and GUS
toners goes without saying. The city
and the country are interdependent,
one upon the other, the city Of Sum-
ter being just as much part Of
Sumter county as the most remote
rural section OF this county.

Ged Rid OF the Worms I'm Your Hogs.

Dr. w. NJ. Brunson. Veterinarian at
the Georgia State College OF Agricul-
ture. recently had opportunity to OBJ
serve carcasses OF Southern hogs as
they passed through "a slaughter house
and found that very large per cent.
were infected with worms. How
great loss Is TO he attributed to these
worms Is difficult To sttae. but that 1t
is enormous there Is no doubt. 1t Is
believed that one OF the chief causes
Tor the value OF hogs I'm the South
being so much less per capita than In
other states Is attributable To a con-
siderable extent to the prevalence Of
parasites. especially worms. which
the Southern farmer has not yet learn
ed to combat effectively.
Upon this subject DIR. Brunson says
that his Investigations OF many un-
healthy herds OF swine have revealed
the presence of intestinal worms. The
unhealthy condition prodisposes the
hogs to any kind OF disease.
An effective remedy for the intesti-
nal worms recommended by DIR. Bur
son is made as follows:
SantOnin. 2 1-2 grains.
Areca nut, dram.
Calomel. 8 grains,
Sodium carbonate. 1 dram.
These mixed together constitute q
dose for 1O0-pound hog. The ami.
mai should be confined without feed

time as when the war will end and re-
open the foreign trade in American
cotton on large scale. 1t IL felt by
local bankers that the South will re-
duire considerable financial assistance
when the crop movement begins. and
they are of the opinion that the funds
needed will have to be furnished by
the large banks in the East and West,
and that II will not be practical or
wise to depend entirely upon the Fed

bankers are seeking a desirable in

many years, perhaps the best in its
history.-Charlottte Observer.

No. 1. Get your advertising mat

ing and banking at Sumter"
No. 2. Place a few flags and
some bunting on your automobile.

No. 4. Tell your country friends
about the booster trip and the hour
we will be at their places. Ask
them to help advertise the meetings.
No. S. Talk up the booster trip
and see how many automobiles you
can get to go along to help carry a
big crowd of business men. TRY to
make this big and successful get
together, trade drawing, trade terri
tory extension affair.
No. 6. Remember that the way
to make times better and to get
more business is to hustle for it, and
to advertise what you have to sell.
You need more business. Go after
it.
No. 7. Bring the city and the
country closer together. We need
each other now more than we ever
have needed one another.

the intellectual, all these tend to-
wards better citizenship in many
respects. The country man is DIS
much interested in the kind Of citi-
zenship he and his family must
mingle with the city as the city man
is. And likewise why should not the
city and the country get closer and
closer together, and find out what
is needed for a more prosperous, in
telligent, healthful, and moral condi-
ton of existence.
We all are but human, none of us
are perfect, we all have our faults,
and as little as we think it, nothwith-
standing our professions of super
iority' over some or all of our &C
quaintances. every man is. in way,
peculiarly his own, more or less OBJ
noXious to his fellow beings, in one
way or other.
Perhaps if we just unbent a little
towards each other and had what are
more popularity termed heart to
heart talks" we would understand
each other better and in the general
estimate or survey of our social en-
vironment We would doubtless find
many things to correct.
The business men Of Sumter and
the farmers of Sumter county should
get together oftener than they do.
The women Of the city and the coun-
try ought to mingle more than they
do. 1t pays to be close to each 9TH
er. We derive commercial as we'll
as social benefits therefrom.
Every business man of Sumter
should be on the tobacco market and
trade boosting trip next Wednesday.
They will never regret and, better
still, will never forget the genuine
open hearted hospitality of the ever
hospitable farmers and their wives Of
Sumter and Clarendon counties.
Those who went and accepted the
hospitality of the rural districts last
July are still talking gratefully of the
pleasures Of that trip. And we'll they
may. But more pleasure and more
business as we'll are there for the
asking. SO get in line and show our
friends Of Sumter and Clarendon
counties that we are coming again
because We know and were shown
that we are wanted. Just one day off
from business. after new business and
more pleasure is what next Wednes-
days trip means to those who go.

WHAT FARMS COULD BE.
County DemOnstratOr Gives Some
Good Advice 10 Farmers on What
to Make of Their HOmes-Fruit
Trees ut COs.

TO have perfect orchard, it is
necessary to be looking after it all
OF the time. If you have not already
done so, the dirt should be pulled
up around the trees to the height Of
six or eight inches. About the first
OF October pull this dirt away again
and you will get rid Of a great many
borers. Keep the weeds and grass
from around the roots of the trees,
especially the small ones In order that
they may get their proper growth. 1
repeat again, do not allow the trees
to be injured with the names, traces
and singletrees in plowing. I believe
that as much damage has been done
to small trees in plowing in Sumter
county as the San Jose scale has
done.
If you do not have an orchard with
peaches and grapes ripening through
June, July and August and live on a.
farm in Sumter county, you are
missing gopdly portion of the pleas
ure of living on farm. If I couldn't
have the luxuries that farm affords
l certainly wouldn't live in the coun-
try, II 1 could get job in town. No
wonder children in the country rear
ed among farm imprelements scatter
ed all about over the yard, unpainted
tumbled down farm buildings, scrub
cows and calves, pine roofing pigs
and hogs that have to be kept until
they are two years old before they
are large enough to kill, and mon
grel chickens, get disgusted with life
on the farm and wander away in
search Of something beautiful.
On the other hand, picture a boy
reared among a flock of Rhode Island
Red or Plymouth Rock chickens,
feeding thoroughbred pigs that will
net over hundred pounds at six
months, milking sleek cows that will
give sixteen quarts Of rich milk, good
for making the best Of ice cream.
playing with colts in which all of the
family take a pride, gathering the
sun-kissed peaches so full Of Juice
that when you break the skin you
have to bend over to keep the Juice
from running down your chin, pluck
Ing large punches of grapes that look
like velvet marbles, cutting forty
pound melons and eating out the
heart. and drinking the juice until
all Of the red disappears. Nine boys
out of every ten, reared under such
conditions. will never leave the farm
and the tenth boy will never be satis-
fled living in town.
If you live in the country on the
farm in Sumter county, YOU can raise
your children under either of the
above conditions.
Arrangements have been made by
Clemson College so that 1 can for
ward orders for fruit trees at the
following prices: Apple trees 12 and
1-2 cents, peach trees 3 cents, bunch
grapes and 1-2 cents, budded Pc
cans, 2 feet high (any Variety so
cents each, ever-bearing mulberries,
20 cents each and other trees at
corresponding prices. Prof. C. F.
Niven will inspect the stock and see
that nothing but good healthy stock
is shipped. He will also send out in
structions for planting, pruning and
cultivating same.
