Forest Fire Tower j
For Mount Pisgah
Arrangements are now practically
complete whereby the State and Fedw ,
eral Government will erect a 100 foot
steel tire lookout tower in the Mt.
I'istfah- Hethune sen t ion of Kershaw
county. County Forester Nuite and
County Ajront Greet) have kept in
eonta t with the State Foresty Commission
for some time relative to getting
this projrvt under way and when
an agreement was reached between
State Forester Smith and Mr. Nuite
and Mr. Gieit! a.s to the requirements
for Kcttititf the new tower steps were
immediately taken for having the
people <.f t he Mt. Pispah-iiethune
section and the county authorities
comply y.'ith their part of the arra
riKement.
Las* 1 i iday nitfht, Juno 2. at A1
fore-ty mectirtf called by Mr. NuitOi
and Mr. Green and held at Mt. lbs-:
Kah hitrh sc hool the matter was dis-J
cussed in detail and the people of j
that section of the county showed un- |
usual interest in the matter. A committee
of ten men was appointed and
this committee met with Senator G.
C. Welsh, Mr .Green and Mr. Nuite
m Cunnien on Saturday, .June 3, at
which time letters of endorsement
' were drawn up and signed by the
Forestry Com/mittee from the Mount
i Pisgah station and also one by Sen!
ator Wels?h. Representative J. R.
Belk was interviewed later and signed
the endorsement along with Sen,
a or Wei.-n. Rt presentative Rower.,
of Hlaney, could not be reached by
[ It lephone at tiiut time but copies of
tiie endorsement were mailed to him.
j The people of the Mt. Pisgah secI
tion have shown unusual and spier-j
did interest in forestry and tire prevention
ever since the county a-rcnt j
and finny forester have worked in j
1 Kt'i-haw county, and it is believed
that tiie ranger district which will be
established there wil] be one of the
best in the county, due not only to
the ideal forestry conditions that cxt
i<t in that section, but also to the
i splendid spirit of cooperation constantly
manifested by the people
theie. It is hoped that this matter j
may lie carried through very soon j
and that the tower may be erected j
and the ranger district established
with a permanent lookout and other
personnel within the very near fut
tire.

Tribute to Clyburn
In a recent issue of the Lexington,
Ky., Herald, Neville Dunn, writing
under the caption "Snapshots at
Sport.%" has the following to smy of
a Camden boy as a horseman:
"The next time you folks go out
to the Iroquois polo flekl to see a
game, east your peepers on a young
fellow named thmmy Clyburn, who
will bo playing on the Hamburg
Place team. In him, you will see as
accomplished a horseman as ever
wore boots in Kentucky,
"This young man 1ms grown up
with horsee. IIo has been connected
with thmn all his life. He knows
horses so well and thoy know him so
well?the ones he has ruble n or
trained?that whenever on? sees him
approaching, he neighs in delight.
The horse knows that when, Jimmy
Olyburn cHrrrbs on his back, there
will not bo any sawing of a tender
mouth, no shifting weight 'to xjhrow
him off balance. Jimmy has hands
that are as tender with the reins as
a mother with a babe, and a seat as
snug as the saddle ho sits in.
j "Jim Haiiach, the deeatlvion cham-j
jpion, probably oouTd bo beaten in any
J one of his repertoire of cveilts by a
'-jh;i lali.-t. but ne could and did beat
! any man who tried to beat him in all
I of them, li is Bausch's all-around
i proficiency in the decath-ion that
made him the champ.
"Well, there may be any number I
of men who can outshine Jimmy Clyburn
in any one equine feat, but we
venture to say that there is not a
man living who is his superior in a
docathion, so to speak, of horseman-,
ship. i
"Jimmy Clyburn successfully
trained a stable of thoroughbreds for
Samuel Russell of the Camden Hunt j
and Polo Club for several years, and i
trained and rode winning races for!
him in the various amateur meets in
Connecticut, particularly at the Middletown
and Leitchfiekt meets.
"Jimmy Clyburn has ridden and
won in flat races on the various
tracks in South Carolina.
"Jimimy Clyburn has successfully
ridden steeplechase, post and rail ami j
brush races since 1927. Do you remember
Word of Honor, the thor- (
oughbred jumper that won the $5,000
Prince of Wales Stakes and the :
Llangollen Cup for Shelby Harbison, j
of Lexington, in 1931? Well, Jimmy j
Clyburn was in Word of Honor's sad- j
die when he won those events.
"Jimmy Olyburn is an accomplish- i
cd show ring man and has accounted
for plenty of ribbons throughout the
South and in New England.
"Jimmy Clyburn may not be as
great a huntsman as John Peel, but i
he has trained hunters since he was j
a kid, has hunted the various south- ;
ern courses, the New England drags
and of course, the Iroquois Hunt
course here in Lexington. He was
whip with the Camden Hunt for two
years.
"Jimmy Clyburn is about as fine a
polo player as we ever saw. Because
he does not belong to an official -polo
club, he carries no handicap. But
he's a three-goal player if we ever
saw one.
"Try and find a young man who |
can do as many things on the back j
<.f a horse as Jimmy Clyburn.
"This gifted young fellow?he was I
born in l'.'l'J in Camden. S. C.,?has j
been e. r. nee ted with Hamburg Place
sin c It'll. He va- brought here by
Edward Madden, who engaged him in j
South Carolina. He is a >on of Mr.
| ami .Mrs. W. C. Clyburn and, girls,
he's as handsome as a movie actor.
Rising Prices Bring
| a Bright Outlook
The go ve raiment's effort to raise
commodity prices and to improve the
farmer's position with respect to the
cost of things he has to buy is apparently
yielding far reaching results
throughout the south. Careful review
of reports appearing in newspapers
from the entire cotton belt
indicate a more optimistic feeling
and a correspondingly larger volume
of business than has been noted in
several years.
An outstanding example of the improvement
in farm purchasing power
is revealed in the action taken by the
Chilean nitrate producers last fall,
reducing the price of the natural nitrate
to correspond with the level of
cotton prices at that time. Current
prices quoted by local dealers show
that soda is selling about thirty^three
and a third per cent under last season's
prices, while cotton has advanced
nearly 80 per cent. Measured in
terms of those two commodities,
therefore, farm buying power is fully
double that of last year; one pound
of cotton now will buy more than
twice as much Chilean soda as it
bought last year.
Looking ahead to next year, with
its bright prospect for still higher
cotton prices, farmers generally seem
to be alert to the unprecedented opportunity
open to them in this advantageous
exchange of soda for cotton,
and dealers report a real old
time side-dressing demand for cotton
and corn.
