Blackville, Oct. 2s.-Blackville
high met her strongest opposition on
the local gridiron Friday afternoon
Denmark giving her the hardest fight
of the season, the game finally end
ing in favor of the locals by a score
of 13 to 0.
Denmark outplayed Blackville IN
the second and last quarters, how
ever, the local team proved their su-
periority by frequently going through
the line and paved their way to the
touchdowns.
The visitors were exceptionally
good on forward passes and would
have gotten away on one occasion but
for the alertness Of Smith. Captain
Still and 7. R. Johnson for Blackville
played a great game, while Pond and
Zeigler proved a tower of strength
for De9nark.

The Herald has received the fol-
lowing letter from its good friend, j.
B. Ehrhardt, of Ehrhardt. Mr.. Ehr-
hardt did not intend this letter for
publication, but it is so reassuring
and convincing that we are taking
the liberty of publishing the entire
letter, and trust he will not object,
for it is not a matter of self-adver-
tisement but one of great benefit to
the farming interest Of this COM
munity. Mr.. Ehrhardt is cashier of
the Ehrhardt Banking Company, and
he is notonly a good financier but a
cracking good cotton farmer under
boil weevil conditions as well:
Ehrhardt, S. c., Oct. 26th, 1922.
The Bamberg Herald, Bamberg, S. c.
Gentlemen: have just read in this
weeks Herald where a Bamberg
county farmer made seven bales OF
cotton on ten acres. That is good
Weld under boil weevil conditions. l
did not do any better, but | averaged
that on my entire farm. | gathered
% bales off of Sc acres planted. Each
bale averaging a little more than 500
pounds. NY fertilizer bill on my cot
ton was $4,000. If it had not been
for the two weeks rain we had in
August would have made at least 80
bales.
I connot attribute this yield to any
one thing. I planted good select seed,
on mostly new land and worked reg
ular. l planted early as possible
and plowed every week when pos
sible, used no poison or any thing OF
that kind, I found that my new land
made much better than the old fields.
Thes new land stood the rains better.
I used about $50 pounds fertilizer
Der acre, 200 pounds acid and kainit
mixed about two of acid to one OF
kainit and so pounds Of soda mixed
with this per acre. The Lord certainly
blessed me this year and am thank
full.
am not writing this for publica-
tion. but I know you are interested IN
the welfare of our county, and so am
I.
Cotton, l believe is our best money
crop, we can make it in good seasons,
but we must hustle and do not plant
more than can be worked every week.
with kindest regards, l am,
Yours very truly,

"Duds should be treated with the

Ginning Report.

The ginning report for this coun-
ty. October 25th, shows that up to
October 18th, 1922, there had been
ginned in this county 4,s95 bales of
cotton. Up to the same date for 1921
only 1907 bales had been ginned.
These figures show an increase in this
years ginning over last year of l.
6SS bales. However, fine weather
hastened the gathering and ginning
of cotton this year, and it is not like
ly that the total yield for this county
will be much if any more than 1000
bales over last years crop.

A comparison of the cotton pro-
duction of Bamberg county for sew
eral years past is interesting, in fact
the figures are not only interesting
but very discomforting. For the year
1918 the yield VASES, All bales; for
1919, 24,639 bales; for 1920, PLAT
bales; and for 1921, 4,154 bales. The
Weld for 1922 bids fair to be only
about 5000 bales. Little wonder it
is that the people in Bamberg county
are hard up. Fact is we are doing
mighty well financially under such
conditions. The wonder is that more
of nc are not broke than are.
