1t is suggested that it is time for
steps to be taken looking toward the
holding of the county fair this
fall. The trade week" exhibition
last year was so very successful that
there is positively no excuse for not
having a most creditable fair this
fall. The interest that was taken in
the exhibition of farm and home
products last year showed that with
out doubt the people of this county
want a fair and will give it liberal
support. 1t will be necessary to en-,
large the organization in order to
carry out the idea of a county fair,
and unless steps are soon taken in
this direction it will be too late to
complete all plans. 1t takes time and
much of it to- work out the details OF
an interesting and successful coun-
ty fair.

NOTICE CONCERNING PLOWING
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, so 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,
and 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, bur
I must insist that this practice be
stopped Immediately. The farmers
and tenants can cooperate in this re-
spect, and there should be no neces-
sity to bring action against anybody.
Full notice is being given before !
take such action.
