tising m; ttef, then there was an .
envelope containing announcements ,
of most >f the business houses of .
the city. In addition to this there j
was nea] ly a thomsand copies of ]
the Boos er Edition of The Times
and Dem >crat given out. 1
Leavin ; Orangebarg the booster

together and at Norway were met <
by a goo( ly crowd. Advertising mat- \
ter being distributed, the Band play- ,
ed seven.1 selections and the Boos- <
ters wer? again on their way. Dur- <
ing their short stay Mr. B. B. Wll- ,
Hams very generously handed around j
cigars. At 9:50 the cars started ,
for Sprii gfield. 1
About five miles fr?m Springfield
the Boo, ters were very pleasantly ,
surprised by Messrs. Frank White, j
Summers w. Dibble, C. S. Glea- ;
ton, A R. Mobly, C. B. j
Hair, J. UIcB. Bean and Drs. Mat- ;
thews ai d H. A. Odom. Proceed- ?
Ing on t 'gether the boosters arrived ,
at Springfield at 10:30. Here ci- ,
gars we e passed around by Hon. ,
Jas H. Fanning and Dr. H. A. (
X)dom. )ool drinks were very grac- ,
iously se wed to the thirsty travelers |
by the Springfield Drug Company. ,
Just bef ^e leaving Mr. A. H. Mar
_chant w is called upon for a speech,
nnd as ocretary of the Chamber of
Commer -e, he made a few brief, but
well di. ected remarks. Mr. Fan
ning we 3 called upon for a speech,
but dec ined. The band here play
ed seve al selection, as they did at
all othe- stops during the day.
Leavi ig Springfield at 11 o'clock,
a 22 m nute run wjw made to 'Sal
leys, ju ?t across the line in Aiken
county, but whose inhabitants have
a kindy feeling for this county. Here
the Sal ey Drug Company, through
its niai ager, Dr. R. L. Gardner,
cooled .he boys off with refreshing
drinks.
Leavng Salley at 11:40 o'clock
the Bot 9ter contingent embarked for
Neeces, where they arrived, safely
fortuna:ely, but with what might
have ben an accident. Mr. M. O.
Dantzlt r's car, driven by Marion
Zeigler struck a sand bed. and turn
ed part ally over into the ditch when
about bait way to Neeces. Luckily
no one was hurt and the car pro
ceeded on. the way after a slight
delay.
Frort Nesces, the party went to
Living: ton. Ay the party here were
behind schedule, their stay was a
little h irried, although the band ren
dered i everal selections, and the par
ty wer > soon under way again.
Afte" a 20-minutes run they ar
rived : t North. Here they stopped
for di iner, the members being ap
portiored at different places. After
washir g up and eating heartily ev
erybody felt considerably improved
and e .ual to the remainder of the
day's trip. After a stay of nearly
two h- urs here the party started for
Wood: ord. Just as the Boosters
.
left a train pulled out, and the road
befing a very fine one, it will be in
teresting to note that the auto's time
equalled the train's to Woodford.
1Mb piece of road from North to
Woodford Is certainly a fine one,
and equal to any struck on the trip.
Spending fifteen minutes in Wood
ford, distributing advertising mat
ter and the band giving their con
cert, was an easy and invStlng task,
but the 'Boosters had to go on.
From Woodford the Boosters went
I to Swansea, the final stop for
the first day's trip, arriving there
at 4:30, on time to the minute.
Here the usual 'procedure was gone
thorugh, and as this was the last
stop final instructions were given.
At 4:50 the autos pulled out for the
home stretch of twenty-&ix miles.
Exactly at 6:15, one hour and fifteen
minutes later, the Boosters pulled in
Onangeburg. They came up Rupsell
street, the full line of twelve cars,
going, up to Doyles corner, then re
turning to the Court Homse Square.
Here a final piece from the band
ended the first day of the Booster
Trip.
Second Day.
The second day of the automobile
booster trip came off yesterday
The cars were again late in starting
?tLis time not leaving Onangeburg
nntil 8:20?nearly one hour and a
?half late. The schedule was slightly
revised on account of late atart, etc.
so that St. Matthews was left off the
run. It is proposed to .have the sep
arate trip to St Matthews later and
at that time, according to present
plans, the entire band will be taken
and possibly all ladies that desire to
go.
The following is the party in yes

jj The cars leaving Orangeburg at
8:20 proceeded immediately on tfhe
way to Bowman. A mil*' or two~oh
this side of Bowman the cars halted
to wait on the car of Julian Salley
and the official car?both of these
car (having punstured tires a short
way from Orangeburg. The cars hav
ing come up the party proceeded into
Bowman at about 9:40.
After a twenty minute stay in
Bowman the party pioceeded to
Holly Hill. The car of Frank
Sdegnious was left beihind at Bow
man with the driving shaft broken.
The occupants of this car?except '
the driver?were transferred to oth
er cars and went on. Later Mr.
Seignious' car was fixed and he join
ed the party at Vance. Just before
going into Bowman Mr. D. F. Liv
ingston car was punctured, but these
trivial matters djd, not keeu the boo
sters long behind.
After leaving Bowman the cars
got separated en route to Holly Hill,
Several?Crum, CBennet'., Wannaraa*
ker Smoak, J. W. Smoak, Daht
ler, Salley?went by Rosonville and
Bunches Ford, while t/he others went
by Shuler's ford. The latter proved
the best route, as that party arrived
in Holly Hill about twenty minutes
ahead of the other. 'Iu Holly Hill
a royal reception was given the boo
sters. The Messrs. J. W. and W.
Sinclair Hart, had water melons cut
and ready for the hungry travelers.
NT? .jdless to say they had picked out
the best possible?grown by Mr. J.
D. Murray?and the boosters did
full justice to the fruit. Cigars
were passed and ice water was to
be had in abundance.
The boosters left Holly Hill at
12:55 for Eutawville where they ar
rived forty-five minutes later .Af
ter distributing the advertising mat
ter, the cars proceeded to Ferguson.
No stop was made, the cars enter
ing and driving through without
stopping, then left for Vance. Sev
eral of the cars stopped at the fam
ous Eutaw Springs and partook of its
refreshing waters.
While en route for Vance, the of
ficial car was punctured and rejoin
ed the party at Elloree. Several oth
er cars remained with rhe official car
to aid if trouble was met. At Van
ces a short stop was made. While
going to Vances the party met D.H.
Marchant of this city going t oEu
tawville. He had had trouble but
was then about read1 to proceed.
Before arriving at Vaace the car of
Culler and Salley received a punc
ture, but under the skillful manage
ment of Mr. Belton Bell soon re
newed its journey.
From Vance the parly went to El
loree. Here papers and advertising
matter was given out. Dinner was
the chief attraction lor those that
got it. A rain came ur and after giv
ng the Elloreans a iece of music
the cars pulled out in the rain for
Cameron.
They arrived in Cameron about
7, the ran now having ceased. The
usual procedure was gone through
at this place. As this was the last
stop, the cars soon parted for the
final run and in a short while were
HELPING FARMERS
TO STAY RAVAGES OP THE COT
TON ROLL WEEVIL.
The Southern Railway Has Several
Experts Who Are Helping to Kill
Out the Pests. . ?
President Finley, of the Southern
Railway Company, realizing the pos
sibility of the further spread of the
Mexican cotton boll weevil to the
eastward is taking steps to advise
farmers in the territory along the
lines of the Southern Railway Com
pany, Alabama Great Southern Rail
road Company, the Mobile & Ohio
Railroad Company, and the Georgia
Southern and Florida Railway Com
pany, in localities to which there is
even a remote possibility that the
weevil may spread, as to the meth
ods that must be adopted for main
taining cotton reduction under boll
weevil conditions. Farmers west
of the Mississippi River, where the
weevil has ben present for sveral
years, have learned how to grow cot
ton succesfully in spite of its pres
ence. .They have learned this les
son generally at the cost of short
crops for two or three years. In
the fall of last year President Fin
ley organized a Culture Department,
in charge of Mr. T. O Plunkett, with
headquarters at Chattanooga ,Tenn.,
with seven field agents to work in
those localities where it is possible
that the weevil may eventually ap
pear.
Mr. Plunkett and all of the agents
of this Department have had prac
tical experience in the growing of
cotton under boll weevil conditions.
All of the expenses of the Cotton
Culture Department are borne by
the particpating railways and the
services of its agents are absolute
ly free to all farmers along' the lines
of these railways.
The work of this Department has
been so successful and the services
of its agents have been so highly ap
preciated by the farmers that Presi
dent Finley 'has determined to ex
tend the work further eastward.
Mr. R. E Gr?bel has been appoint
ed agent of the Cotton Department
at Macon, Ga., to work along the
the Southern Railway between Ma
con and Brunswick, and along the
Georgia Southern and Florida Rail
way in Georgia and North Florida.
Four additional agents are to be
employed for work along the lines
of the Southern Railway, the Ala
bama Geeat Southern Railroad, an
the IMobile and Ohio Railroad, In
central and eastern Alabama. Un
less cicumstances should make some
other arrangement advisable these
agents will have their 'headquarters
a: Attala, Anniston, Tuscaloosa, and
Moplesville, Ala.
Mr. Gr?bel has had practical ex
perience in .growing cotton in boll
weevil territory and four other men
with like experience are to be select
ed for Alabama agencies. The wee
vil has not spread to any of the lo
calities to which these agents 'have
been asigned and there is no rea
son to expect its early appearance
in them. The purpose of establish
ng the work is to enable farmers to
be thoroughly prepared for the wee
vil f it shall at any time enter their
fields.
.Fortunately, the cultura 1 meth
ods advised by the Cotton Culture
Department are identically those
which the late Dr. S. A. Knapp, of
the United States Agricultural De
partment, recommended for increas
ing the production of cotton whether
the weevil be present or not.
Farmers throughout the cotton
belt will, therefore, find it profita
ble to adopt these methods, even
though the weevil mav never spread
to their farms.
As a further step in aid of the
work of the Cotton Culture Depart
ment, President Finley has prepared
a circular letter incorporating Dr.
Kfiapp's advice which is being dis
tributed to farmers in all cotton
growing territory along the lines of
the railways above mentioned. Far
mers along the Mnes of these Com
panies may obtain copies of this cir
cular letter by addressing W. W.
Finley. President of the Southern
Railway Company, Washington, D. C.
Summer Has Passed Climax.
"The backbone of summer has
been broken," said Forecaster Cole,
Sunday afternoon when asked if there
was much more hot weather in store
for Charlestonians, says The News
and Courier. "Judging from reports
made up from the mean daily tem
perature for thirty-two years," said
Mr. Cole, "it will be safe to state
that the worsr of thv? hot weather is
over. Accoiding to the Charleston
record of 32 years beginning with
August 1, the mean daily tempera
ture is SI degrees, which continues
until the 13th, when it falls to SO
degrees, and by the end of the month
it is 70, which is nice comfortable
weather."
Practice What You Preach
An amusing incident happened in
the office of Judge Brunson a few
days ago. He had a case up before
him that liquor figured in consid
erably. There happened to be pres
ent a negro preacher, who embraced
the opportunity to impress on those
present the sinfulness of using strong
drink. While speaking vehemently
he flirted a half-pint of blind tiger
liquor out of one of his pockets on
the floor to his own consternation
and the amusement of all present,
except himself. He, like many oth
ers do, claimed that he had the
booze for medical purposes.

WELCOMED AT SPRINGFD3LD.
"The Orangeburg Boosters" Arrived
With Banners Flying.
Springfield, August 8th?Special:
"The Orangeburg Boosters Club" ar
rived with magnificent streaming
banners on schedule time this morn
ing. The two dozen or more auto
mobiles comfortable filled with' the
flower of Orangeburg city's best
business men were met some miles
out of town by several machines and
piloted dnto the center of our town,
where they were met by several hun
dred of Springfield's men and wo
men.
That excellent brass band brought
from the "City on the Edlsto" was a
drawing card, and kept the children
quiet while the visitors exchanged
compliments with the rurals in this
outlying district. The comments of
the visitors was a verification of
the oft reteated statement of this
correspondent who has so often said
that the average citizen and busi
ness man of Orangeburg city knew
no more about Springfield and her
wonderful growth, than they know
about "tariff revision" or the poli
tics of a "politician.' 1 Anyhow,
they came, they saw, they conquered.
The machines were tastefully dec
orated, and bore legends of good
will and kind feelings from the
Queen City of Carolina. Col. Acti
cus H. Marchant, the genial secre
tary of the Chamber of Commerce,
very kindly consented to "make\ a
few remarks" and told the people
of the coming county fair, extending
a hearty invitation to Springfield to
help make this the greatest county
fair in the State. The cars left for
Sally on schedule time.
