A Call to the Bankers and Business
Men of Bamberg County.

You have stood by the farmers IN
the past in their struggles to save
and market their products to ad-
vantage. The cotton crop especially,
you aided him in the building of cot
ton warehouses, the storing and the
holding of same for better prices.
This help the farmer appreciates very
highly.
A large number of tobacco houses
have been built and understand that
a number of tobacco warehouses are
to be built at convenient centers for
the storing of the large quantity of
tobacco that is expected to be grown
in this county this year.
There is another very important
crop that l want to call your attention
to and that is the sweet potato crop.
The sweet potato is being very ex-
tensively planted in this county this
year. Thousands and thousands of

be harvested this fall. To save these
potatoes, place them on the market
as wanted, to the advantage of the
farmer, there should be built in
every important shipping center, pota-
to warehouses for the storing and cur
ing of the farmers surplus supply OF
potatoes for the market. The farm
er will profit very largely by pre-
venting the loss by rot and not hav-
ing to place his products Immediately
upon the market. This in large
measure helps him beat the boil wee

LAWYER SWO0PS DOWN ON AVIATION FIELD AND
 ATTACHES AIRPLANE,S

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 30 (by As sociated Press).-A new trick was added to the artifice of the process server in the employment of the air plane to serve attachments few days ago, when an attorney from here swooped down on an aviation field at Sacramento and put "plas ters" on two other machines stand, ing there. He was acting for San Francisco airplane manufacturer who had been having a dispute over the payment for two machines he had sold. The prospect of seizing the two planes at first seemed like the famous one of putting salt on birds tail until the method of coming down upon them from the sky was thought of.

POLES FORTY
 LIFELONG TO
 TOP SNOWFALL

MEEKER, Colo, Nov. 30 (by As sociated ress.)-Telephon trouble shooters will have easier work in Rabbit Ear pass this year where snows often times bury poles and wires under several feet of snow. This year the poles were replaced by forty-foot poles in place of those thirty-five feet long.
 If the 4O-foot poles are not long enough, still longer ones will be in stalled next year.
 The telephone trouble shooters job is none too easy at the best. Rabbit Ear pass is one of the latest of the high mountain passes to be opened to travel each year. Snow covers the pass to depth of more than thirty-five feet frequently and the trouble shooters must dig down to restore telephone service.
