Rich in Shrines.

Beaufort county is not only rich
in her history, her soils, her climate,
her crops, her wild animal life, but
it is especially rich in being the pos
SCISSOR of three most notable shrines,
Fort, Church, and Live Oak Tree.
The Williams live oak is, of course
an evergreen tree. 1t is heavily cloth
ed or draped with gray Spanish moss.
It occupies a beautiful spot on the
bank of the Pocataligo river and is
on one of the richest of the sixty
four islands that make up Beaufort
county. There are three or four fa-
nous live oak trees in the county that
have been visited and made matters
of publicity by our national tree men,
but the finest and most remarkable
of this group is this old amazing one
on the L. J. Williams place.

a Commercial Basis.

It is believed that the tomato crop
has been put on a commercial basis
in Beaufort land during the season
Just past by H. B. Macklin, promi-
nent produce commission merchant
Of New York city. Mr.. Macklin has
been watching Beaufort county for a
number of years and showed his con-
fidence in this truck section by in
vesting thousands of dollars in Beau
fort, along with some twenty-eight OF
the most progressive truck planters
in that section-tomatoes being
grown under the spotting system. Mr..
Macklin brought experienced tomato
growers from New Jersey to grow the
plants and supervise cultivation and
loading of the crop.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1922-08-24
An Abnormal Season.

The truckers point out that our
early spring this year was the most
supernormal one in history. Con-
stant rains prevented pollenization
and the setting of the fruit and the
late season prevented the early plant
ing out of the crop. These two caus-
es were causes that could not be help
ed and causes which may not happen
in a long series of,years. Let me il
lustrate my point. One grower at
Beaufort only got seven cars Of to-
matoes from one, hundred and tt zee
acres. The truckers believe that. this
was something like one-tenth Of what
he would have gotten in normal
year. This man is not discouraged
and is going to try it out again. An
other large trucker, a practical and
well poised man, said if Mr.. Macklin
came out anywhere near even this
year that normal season these same
farmers would make a million dol
lars.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1922-08-24
Packing Houses.

Four large packing houses have
been erected by Mr.. Macklin at the
most important shipping points, three
of these being on the Port Royal rail-
road and one on the Seaboard Air
line. The tomatoes are packed when
they turn white and are carried to
the nearest packing house where they
are graded and packed by experts.
Aside from Mr.. Macklin, w. E. Rich
ardson, president Of the Beaufort
Bank, has been deeply interested in
tomatoes and has given most active
cooperation to it's development and
to Mr.. Macklin and Mr.. Richardson,
the Beaufort truckers interested In
the development of Beaufort county
feel deeply obligated. AS far as l
can learn as to the growth of this
big industry, both Mr.. Macklin and
the Beaufort truck planters that
planted with him are enthusiastic
over planting tomatoes on this sys-
tenn during the coming season.

NOTICE CONCERNING FLOWING
IN PUBLIC ROOADS.

Pursuant to recommendation Of
the Bamberg County Grand Jury, the
landowners of the county cultivating
lands adjacent and adjoining public
roads are hereby urgently requested
not to plow into or allow their hands
to plow into the roads. Landowners
are requested to plant two or three
rows of crops adjacent to roads paral-
lei with the road, 80 that there may
be proper turning space without the
necessity of turning plows in the
roads. It is against the law to al
low ploWs to damage the roads,
ana it is an unnecessary prac-
tice. The county spends large sums
Of money in road building, and the
roads belong to the people. I have
no desire to prosecute anybody, bus
I must insist that this practice be
stopped Immediately The farmers
and tenants can cooperate in this re-
spect, and theres should be no neces-
sity to bring action against anybody.
Full notice is being given before
take such action.

In my two previous articles l told
of two national shrines down in Beau
fort county, as notable as any other
shrine and in some respects the most
remarkable of all of our American
shrines-namely, the 1862 Charles
Fort and first Huguenot landing
which took place on Paris Island
and, the old Sheldon Parish .church
with a history of at least two hun
dred years. These two old shrines
today are in ruins, but nearby and
a contemporary perhaps of the Char
les Fort and possibly four hundred
years old, is a living and seemingly
immortal live oak tree which is equal
ly worthy to be named as national
shrine. Experts pronounce this
tree, known as the Williams Live
Oak, on Bray's island, near Sheldon
as being one of the most remarkable
trees in all this country. Davey, the
tree man, visited this tree and said
that it amazed him. Winthrop Pack
ard, the naturalist, said of it: Il
have never seen a tree so dignited
and so beautiful"

TOMATO GROWING IN BEAUFORT.
By n. L, Willet.
Beaufort Gazette.

Beaufort Gazette.
Twelve hundred acres went down
early this spring around Beaufort in
early tomatoes as grown intenSively
for the early market under the ''spot-
ting system which system has re-
volutionized tomato growing in New
Jersey-one of our greatest tomato
growing states. This try-out was the
most important one ever undertaken
at Beaufort and it's outcome carried
tremendous import to the truckers
and these economic results OF the
year have been eagerly watched oy
truckers elsewhere Now money was
not made on tomatoes this year at
Beaufort, but the process, which was
wholly new, has now been learned by
the truckers. AS regards the failure
this year, the truckers are convinced
that the cause was crop failure and
not a process failure. The truckers
believe that the process is all right
and that this industry is one perma-
nently indicated for Beaufort, or in
other words, they believe that nature
and not man was responsible for the
losses of this year.

The System.

The seeds are sown in a protected
and specially warm bed and when
seedlings are four inches high they
are. transplanted to another bed and
spotted" five inches apart. a stocky
plant is grown and when sixlor eight
inches high it is carried to the field
rooted in, five-inch block of compost
with little soil on top. These plants
are set deep in six feet rows, four
feet apart in medium light soil. This
spotting system not only advances
maturity of the tomato, but it greatly
increases the yield of same.

Statement by the A. c. L.
The Atlantic Coast Line railway
has issued the following statement:

In view of the many misleading
and incorrect statements being pub
lished, the Atlantic Coast Line. rail-
road company desires the public to
know the true conditions existing
today over it's entire system, and
that through the efforts of those who
loyalty continued at work, and 9TH
ers who have entered it's service since
July first, the trains are moving cur
rently and on schedule.
The force of laborers in and a.
round all shops, consisting Of nearly
fourteen hundred men, is normal.
More than one hundred skilled work
men have been employed within the
last four days. At many points full
forces are at work.
In the two large shops at Rocky
Mount, N. c., and Waycross, Ga,
the round house forces are respect
lively sixty-eight per cent. and eigh-
ty-two per cent. normal. These are
the forces that take care. Of engines
which run passenger and freight
trains and the yard engines engaged
in switching. The socalled "back-
shop" forces at Rocky Mount and
Waycross, where a large number OF
men are normally employed, are be-
ing recruited rapidly. These forces
are assigned to heavy repair work
consisting of general overhauling OF
engines after they have been in SER
vice for a considerable length OF
time. When the strike took place
on July first this company had on
hand more than the usual number
of engines which had been complete
~ overhauled, and with its purchase
Of new locomotives within the last
two years, is in position to defer, if
necessary, heavy repairs to locomo-
tives for several months without af-
fecting in the least the handling OF
current business; but, as our forces
are being steadily increased, prog
ress in the matter of heavy repairs
can be made, and is being made, rap
idly. forces at all points and in all
grades of work will be normal within
a very short time.
Since July first more than twen-
ty-three hundred new employees
have been taken into service in place
of striking shopmen, and these men
together with nearly eight hundred
who remained at work; including the
highly skilled foremen, are entitled
to great credit for the service which
has, been given to the public during
the days since July first. These fore
es are sufficient to take care OF In
spection and repairs as may be nee
essary from day to day and are CIV
ing such work careful attention, in
