There la no stemlng the tide of
such a tremendous force. Wo be

in a Kr^af purpose dominating the
minds of all mun comprising the or
ganisation. it 1h no place for 'the

We record with % grateful appro
elation the, splendid work already
done by the faithful leaders in our
Chamber of Commerce. They de
serve high praise. They have
wrought wisely ami well, lint they
u?-.ud mora than mem praise and a
i ruin load r?f good wishes; They
need men (all men, strong men,
ready .men, to keep step witfi them
in Camden's march to larger and
bolter t filings in th'1 not dim nut fu
ture
Had fur Newberry.
One of the encouraging signs of
the times in this fitate is the nctty
i t y being displayed by a very targe
number of t he < ? i ? i ?.? k and. towns
through 1 bo organization of chamb
ers of commerce. The local com
mercial 'organization^ which hay been
exceedingly active, for many yours,
hits recently been very greatly en
larged and Is now probably the bent
working organization in the state,
'l'ho Colutnhia chamber, which had
reached an almost dormant state,
has ructmlly bue.n vivified. Tho
t "harlvst on chamber Is pushing a vig
orous campaign for a greater Char
lesion. 'Ihe Spartanburg chahiher
has a greatly Jhcreased membership.
Kock 11111 has practically a new or
ganization, which promises to ac
complish much. Sumter and Flor
ence have Kood trade bodies. The
Greenwood hoard is right on the
job and Georgetown, the last tojvn
in the state* that one would accuse
of having such a- -thing has organ
ized a live hoard of trade. There
are even indications that poor old
Anderson Is going to awaken and
resuscitate its sleeping .chamber.
So thai it comes a sort -of a
shock in the midst of all "this ac
tivity to note, that - Newberry has
permitted its chamber to pass
quietly away. The last sad rites
over the body were performed at a
call meeting last Friday night, we
'see from The Newberry Observer,
whore a resolution was adopted to
wind up the affairs of the organiza
tion with the month of January, di
recting the board of governors to
surrender the. rooms at once, to sell
the property of the chamber and
apply the proceeds to the debts of
tho body. j
Tl\ls last meeting must have been j
sort of a Kiuesomo affair from the
report given of it in the Newberry
paper.. Only a few were present.
. notwithstanding -it hnd been "Ttilly
advertised. These few regretted to
take the step but there seemed to
be 110 other way open.
The experience of tho Newberry
chamber bos been that of some
others in the country. When It was
organized five years ago it had a
large membership This continued
for two or three years when inter
est began to bvg. For the last two
or three years it has been on the
down grade. The attendance at the
meeting gradually dropped off, the
moinbers gradually allowed their
dues to lapso and finally only the
faithful few to be found in every
organization remained.
Faithful as they are these usually
feel . so discouragod over conditions
that they just decide to "ivL the
old thing go up." Many other organ
izations have died Just as has New
berry's. The trouble is there is no
one to keep lifo In the organization.
A stlfnulant must be administered
every now and then. A paid secre
tary goes a long ways towards mak

At school. desks and seat* oi

and an ecopt tonally long bed to/
her was necessary. 8h? was forced
Uj stop *)U entering ordinary doors
and the home In which her
and mother were comfortable w a
Uko H cage to her. The cure of
the young giantess became a lin
den to her father, who was a man
of meager means. . .
Hut a visit to the county fa r
solved the financial problem. While
spielers she herself was the chief
attraction to the others, who fol
lowed her about, staring *t bjr W
wonderment. A museum ipauager
approached her father with an oi
fer of a good salary for her as a
museum attraction It was arrang
ed that her mother should HW"

'iVing heralded as a freu.lc bLuiik |
her sensitive feelings at first, but
she eventually learned to. look upon ,
hor ?t?Se ?!?? i.Mlo?oPl,lo.ully. j
That attitude was made more easy |
by the big receipts.
Subsequently she entered a < on
tract with l*. T. /Harnum and for
several years was an attraction o
the big circus, traveling over Ku
rope and America, The dream of
her girlhood, to own a homp where
she would be comfortable, at last
was realized. In her travels she
never had been ?ipmfortable. Beds
and berths were too shoort, tabic
and doors and ceilings ?.r "
She couldn't find comfortable chairs
Ufo for her was a succession o
makeshifts. She saved her salary
received from Harnum and after ac
cumultitlng what she believed to
sufficient to last her,' she left . the
show business and built a jj
near Gorln. The doors to lus house
are 10 foot tall. The colllngs are
15 '--foot. The beds are as long as
she chose. Ilcr bathtub was 0 feel

Her feet. required specially mad?

required to make a dross for hor.^
After building a home to bet
measure, the. giantess again becainc
a show attraction, (but traveled onij
in Slates near her home. She nevet
married. At one time alio was en
gaged, to Edward Beaupre, a 1< ronch
Canadlan of Butte, Mont., himself
two inehes taller than ins fiancee,
but the engagement broken off.
Another romance of Miss lowing s
life in vol \ ed Louis ? VVllkins, o

for her hand years ago. Both nrtu

A ppllcatlon wan made at the Pro

Augustus Joy and Lorona Reaves
for a marriage license. After look
ing at thv couple Judge McDowell
refused to issne the license, taking
tlio ui'rl to be a white woman. He
called in other court house officials
and t they too .took the same vlow.
The law does not allow the inter
marrying of the races and . the
couple left without the license.
Tuesday of this week, however, the
couple again appeared at the pro
bate office accompanied by the
| father of the would-be bride, who
was a^ahade darker than his daugh

The bulk of nearly ull soils to
roek material more or lb*e finely
ground, weathered or pulverUed. A
few *oll* consist mainly of organic
mutter AH productive soil* contain
more or leu* organic (vegetable and
animal) matter. They aluo contain
, watur, air and bun . Ha The rock
part tele# and the organic matter
contain phospboroiui. nitrogen, pota*
slum. calcium (lime) and other sub
stances used by plant*.
The nurface soli contain* the or
ganic matter and bacteria and Is
Ibe productive part of the farm.
Organic matter decays and there is
a constant loss of this Ingredient
of the soil. ' *
I'erhap* water i* responsible for
the most serious losses of fertility
from the farm aud it is well at the
beginning to stress the most serious
form ? ^the total removal of the sur
face soli by erosion. While It is
u*uai to refer to the effects of ero*
slon UH a I os* of fertility, Its ?erl
ousness warrants the use of strong-:
er lauguage. To eay that the soil
Is lost i& more accurate aud sllould'
be more impressive. When the sur
face soil is removed from the blop
lng areas, ^these area* are less pro
ductive. The farmer may express
the result by saying that these are
worn out, but this is not accurate
and do** H?t suggest the proper
preventive measures. The laud did
not wear OUt. To Hay there was a
Iosh of fertility would be mlHleadlng
even though the fertility Is lost
when the ?oil is lost. The soil
rock particles, organic matter, eV'
erything ? wa? washed away.
Next to erosion stress shoUld be
laid on the.naturiy, desirable and tin
avoidable decay and loss of organic
matter from the soil. The fanner
usually knows and refers to the rock
particles of soil as Band, silt and
clay. in h i h long years of dealing
with soil he has not been impressed
with the fact that sand and clay
wear out very fast. Now organic
matter does not wear out In tlx?
exact sense that the farmer uses
the <term. As the nupply of organic
matter In the soil gets less the far
mer says, "my land is wearing out."
When the organic matter is worn
out. the land is Hald to be worn out.
Organic matter In the soil should
decay, as by this means it furnishes
crops with such food as they
require; but more organic matter
should bo added to soil that the
supply may at all times be adequate
for high productive power.
When rain falls on the land a
part runs off on the surface, a part
evaporates into the air, and a part
soaks Into the ground and cornea out
as springs or findt^ its way to tho
?ea/ underneath the surface. The
water that soaks into the ground
dissolves a certain amount of ma
terial from the soil some of which
is valuable as plant' food. It is
quite accurate to refer to this as
a loss of fertility. Where croos
are growing on the land this form
of loss is not so 'great as where the
Hoil is bare or "clean." This sug
rgb tfc the advisability of 0 keeping
a crop on the land, but there is a
business side to farming and it is
very well to do those things that,
pay. It is proper Jo refer to the
fact that sod land doeB nof wash
away as easily as bate .land bo that
a growing crop lessens two sources
of soil fertility.
Crops use certain substances in
the soil as food and the' removal of
Crops from the land lessens the
amount of plant food in the soil.
This removal of soil fertility is de
sirable and necessary. Farmers
doubtless make the mistake of think
ing that* this constitutes the most
serious form of losS of soil fertil
ity. it is not difficult to provide
for returning to the soil plant food
equivalent to that removed by crops.
It pays to remove plant food from
the soil in good, c rops and a prop
er system of farming will "permit
this for an indefinite period of time
without <5ver wearing out the land.
It should be borne in mind that
large areas of good farming land
do not have much fertility to lose.
A good soil may simply be a good
place to put fertilizers.
I-iand with a good sod of Bermu
da does not wash readily and the
erosion .usually is not serious. In
the Atlantic and Gulf Coast region
Bermuda is doubtless the best plant
<wo have to prevent erosion, A weed
is a plant out of place and Bermuda
in a cotton field becomes a weed,
but if there were no weeds, it would
be necessary to work crops anyway
and for crops. Bermuda makes a
farmer worl^ his crop just ? about
right. Bermuda is the best plant
known for all slopes where the soil
washes away without it. To let tho
soil wash away ? it may be a year,
it may be in shorter time? ds the
poorest sort of farm management.
An ample supply of decaying or
ganic matter in the soil is one of
the best guarantees one may have
for good crops. There is a constant
loss of organic m atter. It should be
replenished regularly, the total
amount being ample and fairly con
stant.
Where the soil' does not wash it
Js not- such a difficult thing to keep
it productive. In South Caroline the
crop is usually limited by phosphor- j
ous, nitrogen or soil moisture avail
able for growing crops. The air
being that great storehouse for nitro
gen, good management n^rfy keep a
supply in the stfil. Clover, vetch
and bean crops are especially useful
for this purposo. The suply of phos
phorus in South Carolina soils is
small and to provide for an adequ
ate supply for farm crops it must
be purchased and added to the land.
Finely ground phosphate rock, fin
ely ground bones, Thomas slag, and
superphosphate are commercial ma>
terlals containing phosphorus. Th?
rainfall and the management vpf tta?
farm have to do with the amouilfc of
moisture available for crops.
While the supply of potash in the
soil is generally very much greater
than the phosphorus, it may not al
ways be sufficient for large crops
and where provision is made for
enough phosphorus, nitrogen, and
moisture for large crops the point
may be reached where potash will?
limit the erop. Kainit, muriate,
sulybat? of potash art commercial
material* that are coruouly used
for aupply lug potaali.
The total loss of the Kill, by vo
sion, in the cotton statin 1? linineaa J
uubly great and eaal }y takea firat

"A Fool and His Money
*
Are Soon Parted"
The abgve should be a gentle reminder to you
to hold on to a part of your money. Make a small
deposit in the bank every day, every week or even
every month and your bank account will grow like
seed in rich ground. Don't forget that the bank a*
count is the first step toward* success ,and fortune.
If you will take care of the pennies they will soon
grow to shining dollars and brighten the cloudy days
of the future.
