That is to say to provide better
pay for the teachers of the Newberry
schools and to raise the money.
The petitions asking an election on
the subject of an additional tax to
provide the means have been circulated
and a sufficient number of sig.

tax will be voted.
Superintendent 0. B. Cannon, you
will remember, made the statement
at the closing of the school this year
that the teachers had been employed
at increase in salaries and that he
made the promise of increase on the
faith he had in the people of Newberry
and their loyalty to the
schools, and he feels sure, as the rest

the money to provide proper salaries
for the teachers.
The election has not yet been ordered
but -will t$e in time to get the
tax levied so that the funds may be
provided for the coming session. We
must stand by our schools. The people

will not fail this time.
The water situation in Newberry is
serious hut not alarming if the people
"Will conserve and not wiste. It
is to be regretted that we have not a
sufficient supply to water yards and
gardens, but it is much more important
to have a sufficient supply for
fire and drinking purposes however

much the watering of yards would
add to the comfort of the people.
When the new well is completed the
supply will be adequate. We desire
to cooperate to the end that we may
have ample water for drinking and
sewerage and for fire protection and
by using economy in water the supply
will be adequate. The rains will
come soon and then the supply even
in deep wells will be more.r
There doesn't seem to be much desire
this year for political office and
/ that is a good sign of prosperity, because
as a rule none* of the offices
pay a good living and the field for
the competent young man in almost
any calling is much more inviting
and then he is free to do as he pleases
and the opportunity to rise is
greater.

Clemson College lias Just Issued I
luletin entitled "Trona Potash; Progess
Report" which deals with a subset
which has created great interesi
nd caused much discussion during

Ilemson:
"SUMMARY."
1. This It a progress report and
ot a final answer to the problem.
1. Field observations in the suoiler
of 1919 led to the belief that
raps had been greatly damaged by
i-o uie of Trona potash.
3. Trona potash used as source of
otaefc. in fertiliser tests did not sho-w
ny greater loss on the average than
as been produced by German muriate
i previous years.
