CONQUERING THE HOI.I, WKKVIE
1 aw writing this in the first per- I
sou singular. 1 want to take Herald!
readers on r personally conducted
tour through a holl weevil infested
'County and give them first-hand facts,
last week I spout-two days in Bamberg
county. Bamberg lias been hard
hit. It is a county ihe size of Dillon
and there is very little difference in
the character of the lands or the
methods of farmng them. Bamberg
makes a normal crop of 30,000 bales;
this year it made 4,000. This is Bamberg's
third year with the boll weevil. ]
The weevil made its appearance there
in small numbers late in the summer '
of 1919, just the same as it made
its appearuuce here the latter part
of July in this year. Bamberg made
a short crop in 1919, but in 1920 j
the seasons were good and the coun-1
ty piade almost a normal crop. The
farmers tried cotton again this year,
but the drought came and then followed
the weeks of excessive rainfall
and Bamberg's crop was cut from
30,000 to 4,000 bales. From the reports
that had reached here concerning
conditions in the lower tier of ;
counties I expected to find filings as
flat as a flounder; I expected to find
the streets deserted, half the stores
closed, no traffic, smokeless factory
chimneys and a general spirit of dejection
and depression. But 1 was
agreeably surprised. The only idle in- j
dnstries I found were ginneries. The .
most of thein had closed weeks ago.
Saturday morning 1 found the streets'
alive with traffic. Business men were 1
hurrying here and there. The usual
stream of customers was pouring in j
and out of the hanks, the clerks in (
in* Muri's wi're iairiy uusy ana Otis- >
invss seemed to be normal. There
was no general spirit of dejection and
"depression. The people were not blue.
They were smiling. They were optimistic.
Thfey have plenty to oat?food
if. found everywhere in the greatest
abundance?many of them have a lit-'
tie money ahead, and those who have
no money sell a hog( a few chickens
or eggs or some corn when they find I
it necessary to go to town and trade. .
One man with whom I talked said
conditions as a whole were better than j
they were last fall. He said the bigjslump
in the price of cotton was such
a shock that it paralyzed the peo- i
pie. The boll weevil came on gradual- i
ly ?his work of destruction covered ;
a period of several months and the ,
people had in a way adjusted themselves
to conditions before the cotton (
crop was harvested. They will plant 5
some cotton next year?about -1 to j
f> acres to the plow. They take a j
nopeiui view or me iuiure, and ar>' i
confident that when they emerge }
from the wilderness of doubt and un- ,
certainty by which they are surround- >
ed at the present moment that it will ]
mark the beginning of an era of'<
prosperity, the like of which the L
county has never known. (t
7."? Per Cent. Seasons.
I talked with banker, nu reliant I
and farmer. I talked with big farm- '
ers, medium class farmers and small ,
farmers, and as I progressed from n
top to bottom pessimism decreased1,
and optimism increased. The big far-ji
in or lias been hard hit; the small .
fanner has not suffered to any great ,
extent. I gathered opinions here and .
there; 1 told them that in my judg- .
merit reports reaching my country ,
concerning conditions in the low .
country had been greatly exaggerated;
that it. was like the indiscretion ,
committed at home?the farther it !
got away from the point of origin the!
more scandalous it became. That 1
was there for the purpose of* getting
the. truth; that the farmers of
my section were facing the same conditions
they had faced in 1920; that
they had had three years of the boll
weevil and we wanted the benefit of
their experience. I had related to me
a hundred different experiences,
scores of different methods for fighting
the boll weevil and dozens of different
plans for growing other money
crops, but after adding and subtracting
and multiplying and deducting all
I these opinions and experiences and
rlans I divided the ?um total by persoal
conclusions and observations and
find that the net result Is 7 5 per
cent,of season and 25 per cent of effort.
There are good farmers in Dillon
s ' *-s county, but they haven't a monopoly
\on good farming methods. There are
other men who have the "know
tiow." I talked wjt.h Mr. C. R. Brabham,
a progressive and conservative
business man. Mr. Brabham was
reined on the farm, went to town
when a young man, entered the mercantile
business, made a fortune, invested
it in good farming lands, retired
from the mercantile business
and for the past ten years has devoted
his entire time to his farming interests.
He farms along intelligent and
progressive lines and made money
till the boll weevil came. "Man alone
can't beat the boll weevil," said Mr. ,
Brabham. '<Thc success or his efforts ,
iu fighting the weevil depends to a (
large extent, on the seasons. If it is a i
favorable season and he uses the mos' i
approved methods?the calcium ar- ]
senate treatment?he can make a <
, I
TILE DIJ
- ?A - normal
crop, but if it is an unfavorable
season the weevil will eat him up..
Even the molasseB mixture will not j
prove effective in wet weather. The ' i
rain washes it off as fast as you put'
it on. It is impossible to tell what
kind of seasons you will have and the'i
safest plan is to plant only a few
acres to the p!o\vt use a quick-acting' i
fertilizer, work the crop fast and J
even if the season is unfavorable and|i
your crop is a failure you have not 1
lost much." Mr. Brabham owns both , i
stiff and liaht lands. He owns a place I
In the lower part of the county and ! i
a place in the upper end. When path- 1
oring time came the results vere the I
same. 1 did not put the figures down |
at the time, but my recoil iction is !
that he told me he gathered about j'
40 bales from :i50 acres. That was
the experience of one of the'best far- 1
niers in the lower part of ^he state. |'
The general opinion seemed to be
that even though the county was 1
passing through its worst fear with;
the weevil?the third yearf? that a 1
fairly good crop would lulve been .'
made with the calcium-arsjenate-mo-1
lasses treatment if the seasons had
been favorable, but one veteran far-11
inor told me It had been (the worst [''
season he ever saw. The crap was do- ('
ing fairly well until the j July and ^
August rains came. It raided in tor-!J
rents day after day and Wr weeks it.1
was impossible to work in stiff land.'1
It was during this wet spell that the ; i
weevil got in its most destructive J
work.
G. Frank Bauiberg, live-stock deal-1'
or and large land owner, had ten :
acres of cotton near his residence. It '
was a pet field. He ignored the heavy i
rains and right after eaoh rain he 1
put his hands in the field and applied s
the calcium-arsenate-molasses treat- 1
ment. As fast as the rain \Vashed it off I
he applied it again and Again. He 1
dc os not know how many applications ;
he made, but all during the long wet .
spell he kept up tlw treatment. He ;
made 7 hales on 1" am fs. which T I
think, was the r? ' ord fog tlje county. |
I did not find out how lAiuch it cost, ;
but the treatments fXij? have been (
expensive. t
"I cannot account for it." said H. i
F Pnmhore another lai'ge nlanter. i
"hut the weevil seemed'to work in j
spots. I saw fields in wlifch the work i
had been intelligently directed. The t
sq u a res were either i) irked up or (
plowed under as fast asithey fell, the f
calcium-arseuate-molassfes treatment r
was used liberally, butistill the crop > t
was failure, while ju<=i across the j
road where these methods of fighting
the weevil had not beefi used, where ^
the crop you might say 'had been neg- 2
leoted, 1 saw fairly good crops made."i(
Mr. Bamberg said it was 75 per cent t
season and 25 per cent; man.
I could tell of dozens of other j
rases, but it would bej to repeat the t
story over and over. There was some ^
ittlo difference in the/ methods em- (j
>loyed in fighting the ^progress of the (
weevil, but in nearly (every ease the j
esults were the samfe. Ught land j \
vith good drainage, intelligent culti- , /
ration and quick-acting fertilizers t
made from 30 to 4 01 per cent of a i
rrop. b\i( this was in upots, stiff lands'vith
good drainage j made from 10 (
lo 20 per cent of a rrop while stiff
amis with poor draifnape and indifcultivation
miide practically
uothinp. I i
The merchants ant] bankers take a
hopeful view of the situation. All
:h<" stores are c irryinp averapo
docks and the bank statements analyze
fairly well. The banks have been .
liberal with their c istomers. They j
have not found it n -cessary to press
them. They too hav< received liberal
treatment from the r correspondent j
banks. Old debts an heinp pradually
liquidated. Here am there where a
landowner's line at the local bank is
too heavy and his wop has been a
failure he is poinp into the land
hank. This has relh wed the situation
lo a considerable e: tent. New money ,
is not. available, hi t. as one business ,
man told me, if a Fellow pets to the
pc int where he is < ompelled to pet a j
loan to save hj mself he usual- [
ly pets it. A banker told me,
Saturday niplit t lat he had mad*1
a new loan tlliat day ? some-1
thinp unusual for j this time of the;
vrar. Good farminlg lands have not
depreciated in vaiue; they arc not on ^
the market., and it a man is looking
for bargains in r.eal estate he will
have to go somewhere else. Taken as
a whole the situation was agreeably
surprising. The county is not broke
?not by a long shjot?and in the next
year or two whrjn the people have
adjusted themselves to new conditions
the county twill be more prosperous
tban evert.
The Height Side.
The philosophe/rg tell us that Out of
all evil there corhes some good; that
there is a bright} side to every dark
spot, and particularly is this true
of the misfortunes following the invasion
of the bfjll weevil. In every
calamity that belfalls a nation or section
there are hlways one or more ,
outstanding figuires that lead the wav j
out of the valley of despair to the
p?-nks of hippin/esa and prosperity.
Saturday afternoon in company with
Farm i).jmonstration Agent
Brandon T wenf to the home of Mr.
.T. A. Hartzog \fho lives a few miles
nut from Denrryark. Mr. Hartzog is *
one of the livet-at-home farmers. TT??
rloeK not plant j much cotton. Although
it was |i o'clock Saturday af- 'r
Ufnoon when Iwe arrived nt Mr. f
flartzog's hoau< we found him at his ,
?ne mill p^Hting lip the fire under ]
\ I
.LOS HBIULDJDQXO.V. SOUTH CA
a syrup pot- Mr. Hartzog ii&kes a,
Very fine quality of ribbon cane syrup.
He does it by giving it his personal
attention. "Well," said Mr.
Hartzog, "Let* go up to the house." j
Arriving at the house he took me to ,
an outhouse where he showed me
1;~00 gallons ot pure ribbon cane
syrup put up in gallon cans and burr?
:s. "Here, try some oi these paper
shell pecans," said Mr. Hartzog, "they
raiue off my private tree." At this
moment Farm Demonstration Agent
brandon pulled out a telegram calling
for 200 pounds of pecans and an
enquiry lor prices on several hundred
gallons of syrup which he turned over j
io Mr. Hartzog. In the outhouse 1 >
saw some lye soap and remarked I
thai it hud been a long time since 1
liud seen any of the old-timu lye
soap. Mr. Hartzog went down into a
tiox and took out several cakes 20
years old. He had quantities of it
representing different years of manufacture.
in his commissary he had
lutidrcds of jars and cans of fruit and
other foodstuffs all made at home.
IK showed me a jar of blackberries
he and his wife put up jU3t after
they were married, some 20 years
ago. From the house we went to the
let where he showed us a pen of fine
hogs averaging 400 pounds, ready
for the slaughter. Down in his pasture
he had many other fine hogs
ready for shipping. They were fattening
on the pulp from his cane mill.
From the lot we went to a field where
k\? found grazing on the cut over '
cane field of little more than two I
acres ten head of horses and mules, 1
some six or eight of which were i
home-raised. In his barn and stables
we found six jacks. '<Did you make
ill that syrup on that small patch of
land?" I enquired. "Yes, sir," was'
the reply, "and the stand was not ;
>ery good, either." <'i understand you j
ire not ?a very large cotton planter, ,
\lr. Hartzog. How much cotton will j
k'ou plant next year?" "1 may plant
three or four acres, or I may not
dunt uny at all," was the reply. "1
h not think much of cotton," he
continued. ' There are so many more!
things a farmer can raise that will J
urn him out a bigger profit that it
s an actual loss to neglect those
hings for cotton." Mr. Hartzog lives ,
i. the heart of the weevil infested
section, but lie is one of the most in- j
Impendent men in the state. He has ,
something io sell the year round, j
The boll weevil never has and does j
lot give liini a moment's uneasiness. .
He is always ahead of the world, has (
I ?U1I1W>, 11 > 15 ill ilUllie UI1U lases
treat pride .in his farm. Mr. Hart:og's
methods of farming are hound
0 become universal throughout the
icuth.
And so this is the brief story of
tow a cotton community is passing
hrough its worst year with the boll
veevil. 1 do not wish to make a comlarison
but 1 will draw a parallel beween
the two counties. To summer
zc briefly: Bamberg faces another
ear of uncertainty with plenty of i
1 od and foodstuffs, with many debts
inpaid, with only 4000 bales of cot- j
on on hand and a large colored ten- |
int population to care for and still (
hi people are confident they will f
)*. ercome those conditions. Optimism
uns high. And on the other hand j
icre is Dillon county with its 25,000
uiles of unsold cotton still on hand,
nost of which is unpledged, with the
ills movable of its nine banks al
nost wiped out, with its small peri
pita indebtedness, with a record-'
ireaking food crop safely tucked j
iway in storage houses, with its annual
production of 4,000,000 pounds
>f tobacco to fall back upon as a
second money crop in the event its
next cotton crop is a failure, with j
inly a small colored tenant population
to care for and yet we are liv- I
ing in a wilderness of fear and doubt
iitd suspicion and uncertainty, all
af which is of our own making.
There is every reason why we should
be happy and contented.

It's -too much to try to work every
day against a constant, dull backache,
or sudden darting pain in the
small of the back. Be rid of it. Try
Doan's Kidney Pills. Yoru neighbors
recommend them. Ask your neighbors
J. M. Tolar, carpenter, Hampton St.
Dillon, says: "Not long ago 1 was
suffering awfully with my kidneys
and for nearly three weeks I could
hardly get around- Bending over or
lilting anything heavy was almost impossible,
mf back was too sore and
weak to allow it. I tried several remedies
but got no relief. Nights the
action of my kidneys caused me to
get up several times and my sleep
didn't refresh me. I finally heard of
Doau's Kidney Pills and got a box at .
the Rogers Drug Co. and used them .
according to directions. They soon
ended my trouble and fixed me up in
fine shape."
