A headline in the Charlotte Observer
reads: "On the cob North Caro||
~Jina corn is worth 83 cents." But
- what probably is concerning the Tarheel
is what North Carolina corn is
worth in the jug?since the old North
Stat? went dry.
We are glad to note that the sewfe
' erage matter has been revived and
jjP that the prospects for a system of
sewerage and waterworks for the
near future are practically certain,
gt'- We predict for Bamberg a big movefe
ment forward when the town is supR
plied with a plentiful supply of good
water and a sewerage system.
[pi. > In taking the position that the
IP; * salaries of State -officers should not

IUC 1UW caow vuta W >.? ? Manning
is entirely right, to our
mind. The salaries of all State-of*
fleers, and many county officers, are
too low, it is true, but the people are
now trying to, recuperate from the
ruinous conditions of the past eighteen
months, and it would not be
right to further burden them with
increased taxes to raise salaries now.
In the columns of The Herald today
will be found advertisements of
r a large number of local concerns.
Our subscribers will do well to read
every one of them. In these advertisements
will find many bargains
womiy of the reader's attention.
Bamberg is a growing city, and
her stores are improving with the
city's growth. Let everybody give
the home stores their liberal cooperation.
Bamberg is a good town to live
in and her'stores are good places to
% huy from.
L "Twenty-seven Americans went;
down with the Ancona," says a headline.
As to whether it is right or
wrong, according to international
(law, we don't know; but we cannot
7 see for the life of us why anyone
should be so foolish as to travel on
a steamship of a warring nation,
knowing when they do so that they
are liable not to return home. And
we don't see whyt Uncle Sam should
trouble his mind too much about
their fate, either. It may be barbarous,
but the passengers knew the
v danger before they started.
A New York paper recently inquired
of Governor Manning: "Do
the people of your State approve
/ President Wilson's plans for strength.ening
the army and navy?" The governor
replied: "People of South
Carolina have implicit confidence in
the honesty, judgment, patriotism
g^p , and broadminded statesmanship of
President Wilson, and, so far as I am
able to learn, heartily endorse his
. stand for national defence.'* The
sentiment expressed in the governor's
reply is without doubt shared by
nearly every citizen of the State. The
fast returning normal conditions in
this country is due in a large measure,
we believe, to the confidence people
have in the wisdom of the president.
Says the Gaffney Ledger: "We
H hope every farmer in Cherokee will
sow enough wheat to do him at least
- a year, and a little more, so he can
. / * feed his city cousins. If we will only
raise our own meat and bread we will
'not be disturbed by the fluctuations
in the price of cotton." That is
sound advice. The people of Bamberg
county know this by practical
experience. Last season the farmers
in this county planted largely in
wheat, and although it was their first
experience, a conservative estimate
places the value of this crop to the
? ' / county at not less than $25,000. The
prospects are that a much better crop
will be made this year, as the farmI
ers have learned a good deal aboul
wheat raising this past year.

Some merchants do not believe in
advertising. Others believe in adverj
tising once in a great while. Ash
the merchant who uses space regui
larlv and liberally in The Herald
whether or not it pays him. Ask any
concern that does a large amount of
advertising if it does not pay. The
trouble is, Mr. Merchant, if your advertising
has not been paying you,
the fault is yours and not the fault
of the advertising. Advertising does
pay?millions have been made from
no other source than by advertising.
Some of the most widely advertised
articles owe their entire existence to
the advertising campaigns that pro
moted -them. As a good experiment,
take, for instance, some article that
you see advertised everywhere. When
you begin to notice that that certain
article is no longer being advertised,
take note of ho\^ long afterward it
lives.
The Orangeburg county fair was
a great success in every way. The
exhibits were fine, and the attendance,
so it is stated, was almost
double that of last year. While the
writer did not have the pleasure of
visiting the fair, those who went
from Bamberg, and they were legion
in number, were much pleased with
Orangeburg's annual exhibit. From
a financial standpoint, the fair did
well, and will doubtless show a
profit; and the benefits to the county
cannot be overestimated. The
county exhibit in Orangeburg is
growing in usefulness. The get-together
spirit of all fairs is one of
.the finest things about them. It
tends to bring the producer and the
consumer into closer relations and
a better understanding. ine products
of the county were well displayed,
and it is safe to say that
there are many citizens of Orangeburg
who learned much from their
visit to the fair. Now is the time to
take steps toward the organization
of a fair for Bamberg next fall. By
starting now, the necessary arrangements
and the erection of suitable
buildings could be completed in good
time for an exhibit next fall.
I
The fall and winter is a time with
many farmers for rest. Many of
them consider that when the crop is
gathered, the work on the farm is at
an end for some months to come.
Therein, the farmers err. There are
many things that ought to be done
right now. If you would have a good
paying farm, don't. stop your work
this winter. Here are twelve things
you can do this month, according to
the Progressive Parmer:
. 1. Finish the harvesting of the
corn and cotton as soon as possible.
2. See that all cotton and cotton
seed being held are kept dry and are
not rotting.
3. Keep up the warfare on the
stumps, getting them out of the way
for, better farming.
4. Terrace your fields to prevent
washing.
5. Get some tile and lay a line
through that wet spot, thus insuring
good crops on it.
6. Lay in a big supply of stove
wood to last mother through the winter
months.
7. See that all implements in use
are oiled, painted, repaired and put
away in a dry place.
8. Sow a cover crop of rye on all
lands where it has not been possible
for you to put clovers or vetch.
9.. Continue to sow oats in the
lower half of the cotton belt.
10. Watch the barnyard and take
precautions against its becoming a
filthy lake of manure and mud.
11. Start the road drag, using it
after every rain.
12. Subscribe for some good papers
and magazines for the family
to read during the long winter evenings.'
The only business way to run newspaper
subscriptions is cash in advance.
By this it is not at meant
that there are a great many persons
who would not pay their subscriptions.
But there are some. For instance
the other day The Hepald re
ceived a notice from one of the county's
postmasters stating that The
Herald addressed to a citizen at that
place had been refused, and instructing
us to discontinue the paper. We
looked the subscriber up, and found
that his subscription expired March
1, 1914. He was one of the sub\
scribers that we presumed we were
favoring by carrying over through
the past year'? unfavorable conditions.
We understand that this gen
tleman is wortn consiaeraDie money,
and he has a reputation for paying
his debts; but, somehow, it seems
that some people do not consider
owing a newspaper subscription a
debt. Of course the newspaper loses.
Under the postal laws, we are required
to stop this paper. Now, The
Herald does not regret favoring its
friends for the past year by continuing
their papers, and we just meni
tion -this to show at what expense we
i did so; for, unfortunately, there are
CMiite a goo^ many people like the
| one above referred to?good citizens
t.pay their debts promptly; but somei
liow or other do not include theii
I n ninn n- floll'o T-T Q r]
LJSi'I lpiIUiia aillUit^ (.uoii uv^uio. Xiwvj
i The Herald strictly enforced its cashs
in-advance rule, there would have
5 been no paper refused, for we woulc1
> have known when the time expiree
and the subscriber had not renewed
: | that he did not want the paper r.n|
other year.
