After spending the night here last night they will proceed this morning on their way to Greenwood and Greenville. In the party which left Columbia yesterday afternoon were: Mr. James A. Hoyt. editor of the Record: Mr. .C. W. Moorman, secre tary of t-he Columbia chamber of -ommerce; Mr. R. B. Herbert, vice president of the Columbia chamber of commerce, in the Record's scout, the Buick touring car, driven by Mr. A. J. Kind. Mr. W. R. Fishburne and Mr. Me David Horton, news editor of the Rec >rd, in the Record's scout, the Brush runabout. Dr. Whaley's Chalmers-Detroit, with Dr. Whaley at the wheel, in which were Mr. B. W. Ravenel and >thers. Other cars accompanied the party >ut of Columbia on their trip to the nountains, among them two cars from Darlington-Mr. Gus Lee 's Buick, in hieh were Mr. Lee and his family, who will accompany the scouts to reenville, and Mr. Clarence Lee and family in his Buick, also accompany ng the scouts on to Greenville. In a dispatch received from Colum ia by The Herald and News yester ay afternoon, it was stated that probably several of the party would be compelled to retu-rn to Columbia ast night. T'he scout cars and oth rs of the party were sofheduled to pend the night in Newberry. -A party of Newb.errians left yes erday afternoon to meet the scouts below Little Mountain and to escort hem on to Newberry. This morning apt. Langford 's car will go out with the scouts towards Greenwood, and hey will also be accompanied to reenwood by a party from Green wood, who arrived in Newberry yes terday afternoon and spent the night. A dispatch received from Green ood yesterday afternoon stated that Mfr. W. G. Gardner, Jr., o.f the Green wood Journal, would come to New erry -yesterday afternoon in his Max well runabout, representing the Green wood Journal, accompanied by Mr. Wade Harrison, and t'hat it was also robable that the Maxwell touring -ar of Mr. W. P. Durst, with Mr. Durst at the wheel, acco.mpanied by Mr. T. H. Hill and Mr. John Durst would accompany the other car. The Newberry party which left here yes erday afternoon to meet the scouts expected to be joined in Pros.perity by a party from that plae. This morning, with Capt. Lang ford 's car in the lead, accompanied by the Greenwood ears, the scouts will begin their journey to Greenwood and to the mountains. They will be met before reaching Greenwood by a large number of Greenwood cars, who will escort thenm into Greenwood. At Greenwood they will be met by ars from Greenville, which will act as pilots all t.he way to the mountain itv. The route chosen from Newberry to Greenwood is via Mr. T. M. Neel 's place to Bush river, and up by Zion church and Williams store, across the railroad bridge above Chappells, and on by Dyson and Ninety Six. By this route Greenwood is just a little over forty miles from Newberry. The Record's scout cars have met with a cordial reception t,hroughout South Carolina. wherever they have been. They a.re engaged in a great work-arousing an ent'husiasm in fav or of good roads. They are seeking a route for a good highway from Co humbia, t-he capital of the State, to various county seats~ throughout the State. The plan is feasible. and withi the co-operation of the various centies a great deal can be accom pnihed Those counties whieb are ae tuated by t.be spirit of progressive ness which is necessary to keep up with the march of progress in this age will lend their hearty co-operation. Those that are not imbued with this spirit, will, of necessity, fall behind along all lines of progress. That town is sorelv afflicted which numbers among its citizens those who are afraid to lend their help to ain en terprise of this kind because possibly the Record or some other newspaper will get some advertising out of it. People of this kind make a town mor ally unhealthy. They make a town physieally sick. The Columbia Rec ord is going to get some advertising out of the venture. If it did not. it could not accomplish anything to wards the purpose which it has in view. But shall a town hang back and refuse to lend its hearty co-oper ation to an enterprise of this kind. which is bound to help every town af feeted. simply because it is going to help somebody else? It is to be hoped that Newberry will do her full part in aid of this movement. and with the co-operation of t'he county authorities Newberry can easily put the road from the court house to the Lexington line, and the road from the court house to the Greenwood line in good and perma nent shape. thu.s connecting with the good roads of the other counties and giving a good highway from Colum bia on to Greenville. And Newberry can do the same thing as to the road from here to Laurens. Surely the county needs one good. permanent road. Of course, there will be those who will kick because the work does not start at their front door. Some body down in No. 10, for instance, will want to know what good a per manent highway from Newberry to Prosperity will do him if there is a mud hole in front of his door, which he himself could fix by throwing a load of dirt in the hole. and fix it in less time than it takes him to tell how heavily he is burdened with tax ation. T'he good roads movement has come. and the county which does not keep up with the movement is as certain to be left behind as if it were alreadv in th4 rear. What Newberry wants to do is to get together and help this movement along. A number of Newberry's cit izens are taking a great interest in it, and every citizen ought to. VARIOUS AN~D ALL ABOUT.

After expressing his. pleasure in appearing before an audience of Newberry county farm ers. who always seemed desirous to hear something for tl.-ir good and by their farm work displayed good agricultural knowledge. Prof. Barrow said the great object of every farmer should Na to increase the ea.rning po' er of his soil; the soil is the farmers' bank. and his ability to draw on his deposits in *hat bank will increase as he exercises sound judgment and in telligence in depositing in that soil that which will enrich it and make it produce fruit. The speaker explained at length the effects of certain elements in our soils, ,how those elements could be utilized and made to respond to the industry and intelligence of the farmer. The legumes and vegetable matter are the chief ways by which one may enrich !his soil. One of the surest and most effective fertilizers for our worn-out soils is barnyard and stable. manures home-made manures. He rave some instances' of practical experiments along this line showing the great bene fits resulting from a use of home-made manures. In a three-year rotation of crops. cotton, corn and oats, the vield of each was made to almost dou ble itself, in comparison with plots where no such manures were used. At the conclusion of his interesting and instructive address, which was highly enjoyed. a unanimous vote of thanks was given Prof. Barrow. He will open his farm demonstra tion school here in Newberry com mencing on Monday, August 2nd, and everybody, whether farmer or not, is cordially invited to attend his lec tures and demonstrations. These dem onstrations will be practical, and be ing entirely informa-l in their explana tions will be of great benefit to all who are fortunate enough to attend. A full turn-out to all these meetings is earnestly urged. NEWBERRY'S TRIBUTE. To the Memory of the Late Lamented Judge Joshua H. Hudson.
