ices for James c. Hewitt, who died
yesterday at his home here, were held

A Thriving Poultry Farm.

The Bamberg Poultry Farm is one
of Bamberg's newest industries. It
is owned by B. F. Folk, Jr., and Tom
Chagaris. A tract of several acres of
land has been equipped near town
with modern ideas for poultry breed
ing, and an initial flock of some fifty
single comb white leghorns have been
installed on the farm. Tuesday a
shipment of 800 baby chicks was ex-
pected from a noted Florida fancier
for the farm, and another shipment
of 700 chicks will arrive later.
Only the single comb white leg
horns are being permitted on the
farm at present, but later on, as the
business progresses, other breeds will
be raised as we'll. Raising of breeded
poultry has proven a profitable busi-
ness in many sections, and the gentle
men interested in the Bamberg Poul-
try Farm will doubtless meet with
good success.

The Bamberg branch of the Santee
Mills, Inc, has awarded a contract
to L. B. Fowler, local contractor, for
the erection of five cottages on the
property recently purchased by the
mill from the estate of Mrs. F. I. Ma

every respect. Each is to have four
rooms and bath. All new homes in
the mill village are equipped with
running water and bath rooms, and it
is understood that the mill is con-

A New Mail Box to be Installed.

Postmaster Knight states that act
ing on his recommendation the post
Office department has ordered to be
sent to Bamberg another mail collec-
ton box to be installed in the neigh
borhood of the B. E. & W. railroad
station. As soon as the box is re-
ceived it will be erected, and mail
will be collected therefrom daily at 8
and 6 o'clock.
Since the system of mail boxes was
Installed in the town, there has been
a marked development of that section
of the city. The wholesale grocery,
the two tobacco warehouses, a cot
ton warehouse, the Coca-Cola Bot
tling company and other enterprises
have sprung up in the neighborhood
of the B. E. & W. depot, and mail
box at that point will be a great con-
venience to the people.
At present collection boxes are To-
Gated at the cotton mill corner, the
court house square, corner Main
street and Railroad avenue, Carlisle
school, and near the Methodist
church.

Grain Crop One
Of Great Value

During the past three or four years
the grain crop industry of Bamberg
county and other southern Carolina
counties has developed into a great
asset to the state. This is probably
due, in a very large measure to the
arrival of the boil weevil in the cot
ton fields. Large acreages in grain
have been planted throughout the
state, but the increase has probably
been greater in the boil weevil dis
tricts than elsewhere in the state.
A report just issued by B. B. Hare,
agricultural statistician of the bu-
reau of markets and crop estimates,
shows that last year 100000 acres of
hay, which includes oats, wheat, rye
and barley, were harvested in South
Carolina, the total value of which was
s7,264,S00, and the total production
in tons was 363,240.
Figures for this county and other
nearby counties follow:

Large Crowds at
Reuiual Services

Perhaps the largest audience that
has ever attended a day religious SER
vice in Bamberg heard the Rev.
Thomas G.. Herbert last Sunday morn
ing at Trinity Methodist church,
where Mr.. Herbert has been conduct
ing revival service during the past
week. Every available seat in the
large auditorium and in the adjacent
rooms was filled and chairs were
placed in the aisles and then a few
persons did not succeed in getting in
the building.
Mr.. Herbert prea ched a sermon fill
ed with inspiring words on the sub
ject of mountain peaks of religious
life, taken from one of St. Pauls
messages. He made a strong appeal
for a progressive Christian expert
ence, and for growth to greater
heights of all Christian people that
they may attain the fullness of God.
The Invitation for all protesting
Christians to signify new start in
their service of the Lord was met
with ready and strong response. 8.
Announcement was made that the
meeting would continue at least
through Wednesday night.

Local Men Secure
Big Road Contract

It was stated in the last issue OF
The Herald that the firm of H. 4.
Hoppendietzel company, of Macon
Ca, had secured the contract for the
building of twelve miles OF road way
in Colleton county. This, however,
was an error. The article in The Her
aid was clipped from the daily news
papers, and the correspondent was IN
error. The above named firm. sub
mitted the lowest bid, but F. NJ. Bam-
berg, of this city, and Marion smoak,
Of St. George, were awarded the con-
tract for the work, their bid being
slightly higher. Mr.. Smoak is a
former resident of Bamberg and is
known to most people here.
The work is to start at once and
completed Within 1S0 working days.
The bid of .Messrs. Bamberg and
smoak was s32,551.72. The road in
question is a portion of the Walter
boro-Ja acksonboro highway and is a
link of the intercoastal highway. The
local gentlemen are receiving the con-
gratulations of their friends upon Sc
curing the contract.

Cleans the Water Tank.

Monday morning all the water IN
the big $1,000 gallon water tank
was emptied and the tank was given
a good spring cleaning. Every once
in a while it becomes necessary to
empty the tank and scrub it out. The
fire plugs on Main street were opened
and for half an hour or so the street
was the scene of much water, which
looked mighty good, in view of the
fact that the town has not had any
surplus water it could spare before
the new we'll was opened up.
While they were at it, some few
little repairs that were needed on
the tank were fixed up, and the water
tank is now in ship-shape, or will be
when the work is completed. The
water was cut off such short time,
only those who saw the water run
ming from the hydrants knew the
tank was empty.
