The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1918-09-12
Thursday, Sept. II, 1913.

For the first time Bamberg county
has watched the employment OF the
Australian ballot system, which was
used in all the incorporated towns,
namely: Bamberg, Ehrhardt Olar,
Csoyan and Denmark. Being new to
the managers there was some con-
fusion until things got started on
and the system is considerably SLOW
er ttan the old system. However,
the results of the experiment
gratifying, indeed. Banloerg county
has always, we believe, been free
from election frauds. and compare
lively free from all irregularities, so
the new balloting System had no ef-
feet whatever on the results in this
county. The fairness of the new sys-
tenn, however, commends it, and in
the interest of honest elections we
think the Australian ballet a de-
cided success. 1t eliminates any pos
sibiiity, where employed, of any
wholesale frauds, and in this way
creates ar atmosphere of confidence
in the primary elections which will
be wholesome to the State at large.

FARMERS GET
 75,OOO TONS OF NITRATE OF SODA

Despite the shortage of ships and two shipwdecks, farmers received 75,- 900 tons of nitrate of soda from Chile, bought through the War Industries Board and distributed by the United States Department of Agriculture.
 The nitrate was sold and delivered under authority of the Food Control Act which authorized the President to procure and sell nitrate of soda at cost for the purpose of increasing food production and appropriate S16,000,- 060 for this purpose. The War h. dustries Beard was designated by the President to make arrangements for the purchase of the nitrate and the Secretary of Agriculture was charg- ed with it's sale and distribution. The nitrate was sold at ST5.56 a ton at ports it's cost as nearly as it could be determined in advance Applications for more than 12o,oo tons. the total amount purchased in Chile, were re- ceived by the department in Febru- ary, 1918: On account of shortage of available shipping it was possible to bring in sRiy 75,666 tens, leaving on hand in Chile between 335, ,666 and 40,666 tens: Ships have just been as signed by the Shipping Board for the transportation to this country Of the remainder of the nitrate contracted for last year which, of course, can- not be used this season.
 No announcement can be made at this time. says the statement from the department, as to whether nitrate will be offered for sale to farmers next year, The question of procuring ni- trate for munitions and with the avail ability of tonnage for bringing in the nitrate. It has been intimated to the department by the War Industries Board and the War Department that
 the need for nitrate for munitions is
 such that it is doubtful whether 1t
 will be possible to import any next year for use as fertilizer.

JUST COULDN'T
 DUCK GOOD LUCK

At Ak a strange story was told of an American soldier who will probab- ly abandon fishing for the rest of his life. It seems that the rookie had heard say that one could readily catch fish with a hand-grenade, the method being to proceed to the lair of the fish and hur1 the hand-grenade into the water. The grenade. exploding, would kill all the fish in the neigh borhood, and one could gather in a plentiful harvest.
 So our hero set forth one evening and reaching a not-far- distant canal, he threw in his hand-grenade. No doubt it killed a fish or so. but, un- fortunately. so intent was he on his job that he had not noticed a barge hard by. The grenade nearly blew the barge and bargee and his family out of France, and did such mighty damage to the boat and boatmen that, although for the moment flight en- abled the culprit to escape arrest, 1t was quite clear that when discover ed as he would inevitably be, he would suffer very severe punishment. It cans not be permitted to blow French bar gees up with impunity. A courtmar- tia1 and death were the least that the wretch expected.
 That night there was an attack on the American sector. Our man went over the top a desperate rookie. He had determined to die glorious death rathe~. than submit to a shameful end. The esult was that, single-handed, he killed seven Germans and, seizing a machtne-gun turned 1t on the enemy, thereby saving a ticklish situation. Picking up the machine gun, after it had done sufficient damage, he car ried it back toward his own lines, but, enroute, he fell into a German trench and upon the head of a German post man. This postman was laden with Christmas mail for the regiment or company busted from the trench; ci- gars and other delicacies were among his burdens.
 As the officer who told the story said, the rookie murdered the post man and, seizing several bags of mail bore them, in addition to his machine gun, back to his own people. His record for the days work was not on- ly deemed sufficient to condone for his fishing escapade, but, to his as tonishment. he received a medal for distinguished conduct in the field. He was decorated Fisherman's luck with a vengeance!-E. H. Sothern in Scrib- ner's Magazine.

1, FIRST OF FORD FLEET
 NOW IN WATER

Detroit, Aug 3-With the Iaunch- ing of Eagle-1, the first of the fleet of submarine destroyers being built by Henry Ford for the United States Navy, detailed information concerning the construction, purposes and pos abilities of this new est naval weapon became public for the first time. The general belief that the boats were lit tie more than exaggerated launches, equipped with light guns, was dis pelled when the vessel, 204 feet long, larger than the old type of United States destroyers, was dropped into the waters of River Rouge by a great mechanism operated by hydrau- lie pressure.
 The Eagles are within thirty feet of approximating the length of the stan dard $500 ton wooden ships being built for the Emergency Fleet Corpo- ration.
 Viewed from above deck, the Eagle is much more like founder than a mackerel. Its midship cross-section bears a strong likeness to the lines of a canal barge. Its stern is square and blunt. The remainder of the ship is built generally in straight lines and plane surfaces. The bow, however, tapers to a knife-like edge, seeming ly sharp enough and strong enough literally to cut a submarine in two.
 Except for the high deck house and the bridge a little forward amidships, the deck of the Eagle is un oken. Utility has been the ruling considera- 4.a in importance, and with beauty and comfort only incidenta1s.
 The Eagles are built to pass easily through the Welland Canal and the boats draught and beam are also small enough to permit of the boats passing through the New York state barge canal. The boats will have a draw of eight feet when fully equip ped and ready for sea. A steam tur- bine, geared to the propeller shaft on which is mounted a single three-blade screw. of rather deep pitch, furnishes the motive power. Crude oil will be used as fuel. The tank capacity is easily sufficient for a steaming ra- dtus equal to the distance across the Atlantic.
 There Is not a forging or rolled beam in the entire ship, Everything is pressed from sheet metal, cold, by means of automatic machinery that cuts every piece to an exact pattern, then punches the rivet holes and bends every part to it's required shape, After the launching of the first Eagle Mir, Ford saids f'f edn, of course delighted at this initial success, but I knew it would be all right, When you have a task like this, entrusted | to men who know their business, 1t can't ge wrong. I left them alone 1 but watched all of the time.
 There's no use making unneces- sary fuss over a little launching We've got lot more back in the shops ready to follow Eagle l."
