Plants Beans and Potatoes.

J. F. Lane is one of Bamberg's
new farmers this year, and has
brought with him new ideas as to the
conduct of the farm. Realizing that
cotton is a crop no man may reas-
onably expect to make profit on, he is
not depending on it. Among the
new ventures, he has planted three
acres in string beans for market, and
two acres in Irish potatoes. The
beans and potatoes are growing nice
ly, and bid fair to make fine crops.
Marketing conditions on these crops
is not yet known, but it is known
that Bamberg grown string beans are
about the finest in the country. It is
certain that Florida beans cannot
stand in competition with the local
product, and Mr.. Lane feels confident
that once he places his beans on sale
there will be no trouble in dispos-
ing of them at better prices than the
Florida growers receive, as there Is
no comparison in the favor and crisp
ness of the two products. This Sec
ton is especially favorable for grow
ing Irish potatoes, which is a staple
crop and there is usually a good de-
mand for them.

LODGES WANT HOME.
Denmark Fraternities Make Move to
Erect Lodge Building.

The three fraternal lodges of the
good town of Denmark have made a
definite move looking tcwrad
the erection of jointly owned
lodge building. A few days ago the
Denmark lodges of the Knights OF
Pythias, Masons and Woodmen of the
World met around the banquet table,
at which time the matter of erecting
a Joint hame was discussed. Great
enthusiasm abounded, and a COM
mittee was selected representing the
various lodges to work out the details
of the proposed fraternal home: This
committee now has the matter in
charge. They are seeking informa-
ton, and will at an early date pre-
sent the matter in concrete form to
the fraternities for further action.
The Denmark lodges have in hand
a considerable fund which may be
used in the erection of a building
for a lodge hall. Not a great deal
more money will be required, and it
is believed that there will be found
no difficulty in financing the PROPOSE
tion

A Better Feeling.

A day or so the News and
Courier reprinted from the Allen
dale County Citizen a very cheerful
article reviewing courageously and
optimistically the recovery of Allen
dale county from the blow which it
received when the cotton industry
there was destroyed by the boil wee
vii. The Bamberg Herald in its cur
rent issue sounds the same note with
respect to conditions in Bamberg.
The Bamberg Herald is not given
to whistling simply to keep its cour-
age up. One of the most intelligent
" edited county newspapers in the
country, it is given to facing facts
and dealing with the situation as it
exists. The better feeling which it
reports in Bamberg has been notice
able, we believe, throughout the low
country. 1t is in evidence also in
South Georgia. They have received
blow in that boil weevil
infested section also and their
view is that conditions there
"have been worse than in any
other place in the SOUTH" but ac-
cording to the AmeAcus Times-Re-
corder recovery here has set in on
scale that is remarkable, and peo-
pie are, in the language of headline
writer on the Columbus Enquirer
Sun, coming out of the storm Gel
lar" The Americus newspaper puts
the case we'll when it says: Pros
perity may not be here on a great
scale, but good times are arriving
for, the hustlers." There will be no
good times soon for anybody else,
but after all, are the other people
really entitled to good times?

Another Boil Weevil Story.

Doctor w. H. Chandler, of Wat
kins fame, is authority for the story
that cotton boil weevils were recently
found in this county in numerous
quantities under the bark of pine
sapling poles which he personally ex-
amined. "Dock" Chandler had read
in The Herald about weevils being
found in china berries at Timmons"
Vile, and was determined that Bam-
berg county should equal any other
section, even if it were not such very
good news. Mr.. Chandler AYERS it
is the plain truth, though, and says
he stands ready to prove it to any
doubling Thomas hereabouts. On
examining the poles, Mr.. Chandler
says he found boil weevils as numer-
Gus as woodlice, all nicely ensconced
for the winter in as snug a bed as
could be desired. Shows and freezes
would never have killed them, he be-
lieves. It is only fair to say, how
ever, that the genial doctor who
is mighty fine fellow, has had many
years of experience in selling 1.-The
best patent medicine in the world"

Two EligibLes for
Bamberg PostoGce

Announcement was made from
Washington Friday that two sligibies
had been certified to the president
for appointment as postmaster at
Bamberg, these two being A. w.
Knight and H. n. Folk. Mr.. knight
was rated first in the examination,
and Mr.. Folk second.
The examination to fill the Office
OF postmaster at Bamberg was held
last summer. There were five appll-
cants: The incumbent, A. W.
Knight; H. n. Folk, F. W. Free, ].
H. Murphy, and J. J. Heard.
Mr.. knight was appointed post
master at Bamberg under the ad-
ministration of President Taft. He
was reappointed by former Presi-
dent Wilson. There has been much
interest in the local postofice matter
on the part of the citizens of the
town, and the outcome will be watch
ed very closely.

U. d, @. Meeting.

Mrs. Robert c. Jones was hostess
to the F. NJ. Bamberg chapter of the
u. D. G.. Tuesday afternoon of last
week at her home at four o'clock.
Mrs. Jones, assisted by her sister,
Miss Martin, graciously received a
large number of the chapters mem
bership, and in addition quite a,num-
Der of invited guests.
The programme was interesting
and the music enjoyable. The pres
ident reported the amount cleared
on "The Microbe of Love-" which will
enable the chapter to place the U. D.
C. markers for Confederate veterans
graves in the cemeteries in Bamberg
by the tenth of May, it is hoped.
The chapter would like to mark all
the veterans graves in the county,
but since it cannot do so, there may
be some families in the county who
would like to- order markers through
the chapter, coming cheaper in large
quantities. Those wishing to buy
through the chapter can communi-
cate with Mrs. Frank Bamberg,
chairman of this committee, and
send orders for markers to her.
After a most interesting pro-
gramme, the hostess served beauti-
full pink and green ice courss.-Con-
tributed.

I obacco Growers to
Meet Here I uesday

A meeting Of great import
ance to the tobacco growers
of Bamberg, Colleton, Hamp-
ton, Jasper, Allendale, Barn
we'll, Aiken, Edgefeld, Orangeburg,
and Dorchester counties will be held
at the court house in Bamberg on
Tuesday morning, April 25, begin
ming at II o'clock a. N. The meet
ing will be held under the auspices
of the Bamberg County Cooperative
Tobacco Growers associa tion for the
purpose of presenting the coopera-
tive plan of marketing tobacco, and
no grower of tobacco should fail to
be present, as a majority of the to-
bacco warehouses of South Carolina
have entered into the cooperative
marketing plan, and the planters
should thoroughly inform themselves
before placing their product on the
market.
T. B. Young and W. E. Lea, OF
Florence, representatives of the Tri-
State association, will be present and
make addresses and answer any in
inquiries. E. L. Ring, tobacco expert
of the Southern railway, will also be
present and make an address on the
best methods of growing tobacco.
Inasmuch as very little tobacco
will be sold this season by the usual
method of auctioning off to the high
est bidder, but will be sold through
the marketing association, it is of the
utmost Importance that tobacco
growers should inform themselves.
The marketing association has estab-
lished connection with the bamberg
tobacco market, and arrangements
will be made to take care of all the
product brought to this place during
the selling season.

Brief Items From
Town and County

Carlisle school defeated the Spring
field high school Tuesday afternoon
at Rhoad park; score, to 4.
Truck of various kinds continues
to be shipped from Bamberg. Dur
ing the past week number of per-
sons have shipped English peas, let
tuce and asparagus. Good average
to fine prices have been secured for
most of the truck shipped so far.
Tobacco planters are busily engag-
ed in transplanting tobacco plants.
The plants are generally fine this
wear, and the crop is being started
off under most favorable circumstan-
ces. A good. tobacco year is ex-
pected.
The weather for the past week has
been very favorable for farm work.
and most planters are well up with
their farming operations. The rains
of March were followed by fine clear
warm days. Crops are growing
nicely.
r. L. Beard, of Ehrhardt, has
opened up a garage and automobile
repair, shop in the building formerly
occupied by the Bamberg Bottling
Works on Broad street. For several
years past Mr.. Beard has been To-
Gated in Ehrhardt.
Lewis Sandifer, a resident of this
section, was carried to the Orange
burg hospital last week for an opera
tion for appendicitis. His friends
will be glad to know that the opera
ton was apparently successful and
that he is getting along very nicely.
Dan Griffith, a young farmer aiv-
ing near Bamberg, last week killed a
very fine collie dog affected with
rabies. The dog gave unmistakable
evidence of being mad" and Mr..
Griffith dispatched it with a wagon
spoke, running a very great risk to
himself in thus attacking ferocious
canine.
: F. E. Steedly, of Hunters Chapel,
was in the city yesterday. He reports
having seen few days ago a bell
ed' buzzard. The bird was also seen
a few days later about six miles dis
tant. The vulture had tied around
it's neck a COW bell, and was making
merry music as it scared in the
neighborhood.
That the linotype way is the only
way was strikingly exemplified last
Saturday afternoon when the presses
of The Herald were turning out the
regular issue of the Carlisle Bugle.
The last form had been put on the
press and in the hurry, it being late
in the afternoon, certain lever was
not turned; the result was when the
press started up the form went the
opposite way, spilling the contents
on the floor. If the type had been
hand-set, there would have been no
Bugle last week, but as it was limo
type matter it was only a matter of
half hour or so before the Bugle was
delivered.

Some time ago in Life there ap-

child sojourning in the country on a
fresh-air excursion. He is pointing
to a tree on which bird is singing.
ooh, look at the boyd!' he said.
That's a bird not a boyd,' the
teacher tells him.
"Well,' the fresh-air youngster
saws. "it makes a noise like boyd"
