Many in Sumter County Hard Hit as
Result of Freeze.
Sumter, Feb. 12.?Judging from
the number of reliable white farmers
of Sumter and Clarendon counties
who either came in themselves
or telephoned the Sumter ^Chamber i
of Commerce last Saturday for more
tobacco seed for replanting beds,
coupled with the statements that all (
of the tobacco beds in their neighborhoods
had been killed by the unprecedented
freezing weather of last ,
i riuay ana Saturday, and from other (
information gathered by Secretary
Reardon of the Sumter Chamber of
Commerce, it now looks as though (
the tobacco industry in this section (
of the State has suil'ered another setback
equal to that of the winter of ,
1916. ,
Letters and telephone messages (
asking that more seed be sent are
still coming into the secretary's of- ,
fice. (
Just as soon as Secretary Roardon
could secure sufficient informa- ,
tion to warrant him in believing that,
about all the tobacco beds in Sum- ,
ter, Lee and Clarendon counties had ,
been killed he immediately wired J. ,
\Y. Glenn of Klkins. N. the lessee
of the tobacco warehouse in this
city, for more seed, following the (
wire with a special delivery letter |j
giving further information.
Hi1 advised Mr. Glenn to come on (
to Sumter and visit the tobacco j
farms to gain more exact informa- <
tion, hut in the meantime to rush;
more seed at once b\ special delivery
parcel post. Of course the
amount of damage or the number of
beds killed can not be accurately es
timatcd yet. but approximating the ,
number of beds ruined by the cold
snap that had been protected by additional
covering of bags and pine ,
straw as stated by tlie farmers talk- ,
in ft with the secretary, it is safe to 1
assume that hundreds of beds not
protected are also dead.
The Sumter Chamber of Com- ,
merce is doing everything that it;
possibly can to show the farmers,
that it is wise to replant their tobacco
beds and secure good prices'
for their 1317 tobacco crops.
A special campaign will lie put on j
as soon as Mr. Glenn reaches Sum
ter and he with the commercial sec-'

rotary will go out by automobile to!
distributo seed, and will leave suppiles
of seed at different stores in the
country and smaller towns in the ter
ritory from which Sumter derives its
trade. If Mr. .Glenn does not arrive
by tomorrow morning it is expected
that the seed will be in the Chambei
of Commerce by next Wednesday
anyhow.
