There were 7,265 bales of cotton ginned in Barnwell County from the crop of 1922 prior to October 18, as compared with 7,286 bales ginned October 18, 1921, according to figures made public by the Department of Commerce. This shows a decrei of 21 bales, but as a matter of-Yact, local cotton men are of the^ opinion that an actual increase will be shown when the weights afe computed.It will be recalled that a year ago a 500-lb. bale wa< a rarity, the major ity of. them weighing about 400 or less, while many tipped the scales at —* .eVen. less than 300 pounds.

The game was filled with thrills from beginning to end. Both sides were fighting for the coveted score. Jn the first quarter the Barnwell .team scored a safety by throwing one of ’the Beaufort players behind their goal. The game rocked along until the last quarter and neither team was able to score. However, old man*Hard Luck got after the home boys and Lengwick for Beaufort intercepted a forward pass and raced 80 yards for a touch down. BamwrU then scoredd an-‘ other safety and Beaufort, by com pleting a forward pass scored anoth er touch-down. The Barnwell boys outplayed the STATE CHAIRMAN ISSUES AN APPEAL EDGAR A.
