MINNOWS HELP IN WORK.
Icthyologist Coming to Bamberg to
Assist in Control Work.

The following news item appeared
in the Columbia State a few days
ago:
IS. F. Hidebrand of the United
States bureau of fisheries was in
Columbia yesterday, and while here
called at the state health office to
learn of communities which are en-
gagged in efforts to control malaria.
"The government icthyologist will
cooperate in every way possible IN
giving assistance to men engaged in
malarial control work in recognizing
the Gambusia offinis, or top minnow,
which feeds on mosquito larvae and
thereby is no small factor in the
elimination of malaria. Mr.. Hide
brand will tell officers where the top
minnows may be found, how to rec
ognize them and where they should
be placed to secure the best results
He said yesterday that he would
probably visit Bamberg within a few
days. Mr.. Hildebrand has II states
in his district and is able to spend
only a short time with the different
communities engaged in malaria con-
troll work.
yesterday he went to Orangeburg
to visit. the fishery Matching bureau
conducted by the government at that
noint."

Begin transplanting just as soon
as a few plants are large enough,
and continue the work as the plants
become large enough. Set out none
but a strong, thrifty plant of uni
form size, and begin early while the
soil is cool and moist. There will
be little difficulty in obtaining a
good stand.
Do not try to set out your entire
crop in one day, regardless of the
size or shape of the plants. Select
a field of uniform fertility and IT
small plants must be used, set them
out separately from the larger plants.
In drawing plants from the bed al
ways select the largest first. Keep
the plants straight with the roots
in one direction, and if taken from
the bed while the sun is shining,
dip the roots in water and keep them
in the shade.
Do not under any circumstances
set out a wilted plant. In trans
planting, press the soil around the
roots and leave the soil loose at the
TOP. Just as soon as it can be de-
termined if any plants are dead, go
over the field and replant with good
strong plants that you have reserved
for this purpose. 1t will prevent
the first setting from getting too far
ahead of the replants. A week or
ten days after transplanting, begin
cultivation and cultivate regularly
and often.
In planting tobacco, farmers
should be familiar with the amount
of labor required by the crop, and
the season when most of it is nee
essary. About one-half of the labor
of the tobacco crop comes in July
and August, or during the harvest
ing, curing and marketing season.
DO QOC nave duOluSl ClOp willis ol
the same time that will require much
labor, one crop will be neglected en-
tirely or both will suffer loss. Re-
member the boil weevil will require
your attention at this time, so does
| the watermelon crop.
There is nothing that will help the
tobacco growers any more than a
live tobacco market, and we are 60
| ing to have one at Bamberg this
summer. However, before market
of this kind can be successfully es'
tablished, a full corps of buyers must
be on hand from the leading tobac
co companies. 1t costs money tc
send out buyers and is not practica
to have buyer at every little ware
house that offers tobacco for sale
Where there is competition between
| buyers a farmer can afford to shiI
a hundred miles to market, and the
success of this market depends or
the amount of tobacco it handles.

DEMOCRATS TO ORGANIZE.
Clubs Called on to Meet Saturday
April 24th for Organization.

County Chairman J. F. Carter is
calling on the democrats Of the coun-
ty to meet in their various clubs on
Saturday, April Gath, for the pur-
pose of organization, etc. The meet
ing of the clubs will formally open
the campaign for the summer. AS
yet there is heard no talk of politics,
and so far as We have learned there
is no politics adrift in the county
up to this time. The prospective
candidates will now begin to groom
themselves for the campaign this
summer, \and inasmuch as everybody
runs this year, there is bound to be
some lively politics.
The clubs will meet at their va
rious meeting places and elect off,
GERS, delegates, executive committee
men, etc. 1t is very necessary that
every club in the county shall meet
at the appointed time. Two new
clubs have been petitioned for.
The county chairman urgently re-
quests that there shall be full rep
resentation of the voters at all of the
club meetings.
The county convention will be held
on Monday, May 8, at the court
house. The advertisement of the
county chairman appears elsewhere
in this issue of The Herald. We sug-
gest that all interested read the ad-
