MAKES GOOD IN n. MEXICO.
Former Resident Now the Owner of
Flowing Oil Well.

The Bamberg county friends of
Chisolm Herndon, who left here
about four years agofor New Mexico,
on account of i'll health, will be in
terested to learn of his recent good
fortune in his new home When he
was confronted. by i'll health some
years ago, his physician advised him
to seek the dry climate of New Mex
leo, and he left here going to Santa
Rosa. His health began to improve
very soon, and now physicians have
pronounced him we'll again. He is
now robust and weighs 10 pounds.
While this is the best fortune that
he could possibly accumulate, his
friends will be glad to know that he
is faring we'll temporarily. A year
or two after he reached Santa Rosa,
he purchased for small amount six
acres of oil lands near that place.
The oil lands were undeveloped, and
he purchased with the idea that some
day they might become valuable.
Some months since development
company drilled a we'll on Mr.. Hern-
don's land, and to his very good for
tune a gushing we'll resulted.
He has not advised his friends
here how many millions he has al
ready made, and perhaps he has not
really made many, but those who
keep up with oil producing lands
know that any land that produces
a flowing oil we'll is worth big money,
even though the flow may not be so
large as some other wells.
He has not visited Bamberg since
he left here four years ago.

terest in this matter other than a
sincere desire to see the plant fur
nishl the proper lighting, water and
power facilities for the city. Speak
ing for itself, it can say that any
plan whereby satisfactory service is
rendered will meet with its ap-
proval, and We believe with the ap-
proval of the people. There seems
to have been a combination, of cir
cumstances working against the in
terests of the municipal plant. AS
to where the blame lies, if there is
any blame, The Herald knows not.
If the city council or the commits
sioners Of public works desire to
place the matter before the people
of Bamberg, the columns of The
Herald are open.

MALARIA WORK INSPECTED.
Major Griffitts Says Bamberg Project
Progressing Well.

Major T. H. D. Griffitts, L. S.
public health service, who is on
tour of inspection Of malaria control
nroiects in this and other states,
made an official visit to Bamberg last
Thursday, in company with Captain
l. NJ. Fisher of the L. S. public
health service, who is in charge OF
malaria control activities carried on
in cooperation with the state board
of health, and the international
health board in this state.
DR.. Grifitts, when asked whether
the work being done at Bamberg
would rid the town of malaria, had
the following to say: "Bamberg, to
begin. with, had a serious malaria
problem, but one not impossible OF
solution, as is shown by the work
already accomplished and by the fact
that no malaria mosquitoes were
anywhere to be found in the town.
He spoke in terms of the highest
praise of the progressiveness of the
town of Bamberg in undertaking this
work and of the manner in which 1t
is being carried out. "Full prosperl-
tv and malaria cannot exist togeth-
err" said DR.. Grifitts, who has had
years of experience with the govern
ment both during the war and prior
thereto in malaria investigations and
control work. He further said that
the money spent in this work was
the best investment the town had
ever made, and that as fast as the
effectiveness of the methods en-
p1oyed here became known, people
from other sections of the country
would be attracted to this fertile spot,
and sooner or later progressive
manufacturing concerns would avail
themselves of the opportunity of To-
eating in a malaria free town.
Next to the newspapers, travelling
men are perhaps the best advertls-
ing medium. Already favorable COM
ment from them has been heard in
other places concerning the work
done at Bamberg.
The early history of the state is
full of incidents in which places we're
abandoned because of malaria. This
procedure is about to be reversed
and much country will be reclaimed
by employing anti-malaria methods.
G. E. Buck, of the International
health board, is in direct charge Of
the work at Bamberg, and has done
valuable work in making the work
a success.
Dr. Grifitts said the projects now
under way in the south form only
beginning for a mammoth campaign
of freeing the south of malaria. Only

up to this time, and the work in
these communities is largely in the
nature of furnishing models for
other communities in order that they
may be induced to undertake the
work 1t is the hope and purpose of
the malaria authorities to eventually
carry this work into not only every
city and town in the south, but into
the rural districts.

COTTON MEETINGS HELD.
Marketing, Warehouse Facilities and
Cotton Association Discussed.

The cotton association has recently
COMPLETED an educational campaign
in the county, holding meetings at
Denmark, Bamberg and Ehrhardt'
meeting with very gratifying results.
The attendance was small but very
enthusiastic The first speaker was
H, S. Johnson, district agent, repre-
senting the department of agrlcul-
ture. He had an interesting talk
on the present system OF handllnS
cotton, or lack of system, and stated
that after a bale of cotton had pass
ed through an average Of IA different
parties the estimated loss to the
farmer was $40 per bale, making
total of S27O,OOO loss to the county
last year. The solution that he offer
ed for the problem is the establish
ing of adequate warehouses, secur-
ing an official cotton grader for the
county and direct selling to the con-
sumer.
The next speaker was Mr.. Rivers,
state warehouse commissioner. He
offered the services of his office to
the people and told of the advan-
tages of recent acts passed by the
legislature, showing how it is pos
sible to put the farm warehouse into
the state warehouse system and use
cotton as collateral. His insurance
is 10 per cent. less than other COM
panies and is able % give pro-rata
Insurance.
The last speaker on the programme
was G. L. Toole, of Aiken, who rep
resents the cotton association and IS
a member of the executive board.
He told of the many things that the
organization had done for the farmer
in it's short life and the things it is
doing at present. He spoke of the
recent act, that the association was
instrumental in passing, whereby it
is unlawful for warehouse company
to remove any cotton from the ware
house belonging to any parties stor-
ing cotton therein, without the con-
sent of the owners. Bamberg coun-
ty was conlplimented on its large
membership, and it is rated at the top
among the list of counties that have
organized.
At Eh:r -rdt Mr.. Toole banded
all three subjects, the other two
members CT the party having been
called away, holding the attention
of the crowd for more than an hour.
None of the party has his expenses
paid out OF the cotton association
fund, and this campaign has not cost
the cotton association one penny.
The following committees were
appointed to take up the question OF
securing a cotton grader, securing
more warehouse space and increas-
ing the membership of the organiza-
ton:
Denmark-H. Malcolm Crum, F.
V. James, and J. B. Guess, Jr.
Bamberg-J. W. Stokes, J. A. J.
Rice, and G. w. Rentz.
Ehrhardt-J. A. Peters, G. B.
Clayton, and w. H. Mitchum.
The campaign was staged at a very
timely season when everybody is
thinking of As cents cotton and ig-
noring a slump in the price or the
Tightening of the banks On lending
money and the large yield of cotton
that is predicted.
