"RHOAD'S PARK."
y Splendid Gift to Carlisle Fitting
? School by Mr. W. I). Rhoad.
r
g Carlisle Fitting School is to have a
!1 new and splendid athletic field. This
f fact is made possible through the
[I generosity of Mr. W. D. Rhoad, one
n of our leading and most progressive
", citizens, who has purchased a site and
y presented it to the school for an athe
letic field. The tract purchased,
e which lies immediately to the rear
n of the residence of Mr. R. C. Jones,
n is splendidly situated and adapted to
>- this purpose. It contains about three
s and one-half acres, and is sufficiently
d large for baseball, football, track, or
i- any out-door game,
a Out of consideration for Mr.
U Rhoaa's generosity and friendliness
e to the school the new ground will be
ft known as "Rhoad's Park." It is the
?- purpose of the school authorities to
e make this an athletic ground of the
d first-class. Work will begin right
s away in leveling, scraping, and packe
ing. Later in the season the grand
e stand will be erected and it is sup*

>. Park" will not be surpassed by any
I, school ground in the State,
t "Rhoad's Park" supplies a need
g that has long been keenly felt at Carfa
lisle. The school has been greatly
l- hampered along athletic lines ber
cause of the lack of adequate
l. grounds. It is expected that all athu
letic sports will be stimulated?the
e students are considering putting out
- a track team this spring in addition
s to the baseball team, and next fall
i, the school will doubtless have her
e first football. Prospects are bright
l. for a good baseball team this spring.
Mr. Rhoad's gift is the first des
cisive and material step towards the
:. greater Carlisle. We have the possibility
of building here one of the
greatest secondary schools of the
South. We are in just the section
that needs such a school. The citi
zens of Bamberg could do nothing
better for themselves or their town
^ than to give this school the equipment
that is needed. What are the
g
needs? The present needs are a new
brick dormitory, that will increase
t
the boarding capacity to about one
* hundred and twenty-five students,
and a gymnasium with modern equip*
ment.

From 4'Old Timer."
Wanderer's Rest, Jan. 20.?Are we j
to have better seeds, more seeds that
will increase the crops of oats, corn,
cotton, peas, in fact every plant used
for use of men or animals? Already
men have brought corn not to perfection
but much nearer than was
thought possible a few years ago. ,
Then cotton has trebled in productiveness
as well as in staple, so
with many other plants, and still
plant breeding seems to be in its
infancy. Long strides are being
made by Professor Worsham and
others in sister States to improve
cotton for the coming of boll weevil,
and success has crowned their ef- * ?
forts so it has been announced and
Georgians can smile at the enemy as
he speeds its journey for the East
or North Pole, no one knows where
it is to stop.
A few months ago several prominent
men of our little State conceived
the idea of banding together r
to further the process of making the
staple of-cotton longer and finer and N
co/mbine all or more of the fine qualities
of sea island cotton and the 4
productiveness of the best varieties
of upland cotton. This is to their
credit and it is to be hoped that
success will crown their efforts and
every one in the State should give all
the encouragement to the move possible
and our legislature should provide
ample funds to help them secure
the desired end.
The association met last Thursday,
the 16th, in Commissioner Watson's
office at. Columbia when a constitution
and by-laws were made and
signed. Mr. David L. Coker, of .
Hartsville, was elected president,
which means much for the associa- t
tion, as he has done wonders in improving
upland cotton and is a man
of experience and ample means. An
executive committee was elected to
arrange for a meeting the 28th of
January, during the national corn
show, composed of the following coworkers
in the cause: Dr. R. C.
Kee, A. W. Brabham, of Olar; Prof.
Barr, Clemson College; Prof. Moore,
South Carolina University; Prof. *
Berry, of Williamston College; and
Mr. Boykin, of Laurens.
This meeting is to be one of the
most important perhaps ever held in
the State, for the possibilities in the
direction aimed at means much for
the whole people of the State and
country at large. This is an age of
progress in everything but farming,
and all points to a new era in that
or all is lost. The well worn ruts
of the past must be gotten'out of to
keep pace with the age, and South
Carolina soils have proven to he well
suited to improved seed and methods
and all will welcome the day when
the desert places will blossom as the
rose, for all right thinking men place
the farmer as the most important
man in his country and followed in
the right way the most pleasant if
not the most lucrative. Yet with
full barns, stock and poultry, with
vegetables plenty, who need fear go- f
ing to bed hungry. God
speed the association in its
good work and help men to study
the needs of the farmer and help
him to apply them. Not a boys' corn
club in this county last year; go to
the corn show next week at Columbia
and see the champion, Jerry
Moore, and learn of him and his
methods. All honor to him and all
boys who try to excel, for it has been
well said that he who causes two
blades of grass to grow where only
one grew before is a benefactor to
mankind. OLD TIMER.
