The total precipitation during February
in this county amounted to
3.38 inches, which was 1.63 inches
below normal. The greatest rainfall
in one day occurred on the 21st,
amounting to three-fourths of one .
inch.
Dr. E. O. Watson, who has been
away for several Sundays, is at home *
again, and will conduct services at 1
Trinity church next Sunday. Sunday <
morning, he will preach on some du- '
ties of patriotism in the present i !
emergency. The public is cordially <
invited to be present. (
new u. L.ewis r owier, u. u., president
of Cox college, Atlanta, preached
last Sunday morning and evening c
at the Baptist church to large congre- ]
gations. The Baptist, pulpit next
Sunday will be filled by Rev. A. E. '
, Reimier, of Kingstree. The public '
is cordially invited to attend.
A very interesting meeting of the
- Domestic Science club was held here ;
last Thursday. The assistant State
demonstration agent. Miss Gladys
Smith, and the county agent, Mrs.
Faust, were present and gave demon- (
strations. The local organization
1
was enrolled as one of the home ,
demonstration clubs of the county.
Conscription Proper Plan.
Mr. Robert Lathan, editor of the (
Charleston News and Courier, in con- .
'versation at The Herald office Mon- ,
day, stated that he believed the only
feasible plan for raising an army will 1
be by universal service. It has been t
the experience with all countries dur- ,
' ing any war of consequence that con- i
scription had to be resorted to, and (
this country would save much time (
and avoid much confusion by adopt- t
ing the universal plan immediately. y
Mr. Lathan is of the belief that the
more thoroughly we enter this war, ,
the sooner will peace be consummat- ,
ed. It is a well known fact, said Mr.
Lathan, that the volunteer plan in ,
raising a large army would take from ,
the commercial life of the nation
large numbers of men who could best
serve their country by continuing to
carry on their respective lines of s
business, whereas men whom could (
best 9erve their country in the ranks e
would probably not volunteer. Uni- j
versal service treats all alike, and j j
makes such exceptions to service that i j
are necessary to continue to carry on
the commercial activities of the na- c
tion and provide sustenance for the
army and the country.

A NEW ENTERPRISE.
Bottling Works Being Erected at '
Glcndale Springs.
>j
Col. John F. Folk has leased the ;
bottling rights of his Glendale
springs property to the Chero-Cola j
company, of Orangeburg, and this j
company is now erecting a large bot- j
tling plant at the springs. It is un-j
derstood that the work on the plant I
is being pushed, and that operations
will probably be started on May 1st.
It is stated that about $3,800
worth of machinery will be installed
at once. Chero-Cola and other soft
drinks will be bottled at the springs,
and this will be the distributing point
for parts of Bamberg, Colleton and
Hampton counties, and perhaps other
sections. The company will continue
its bottling plant at Orangeburg, and
will operate the Bamberg plant in
addition.
Col. Folk has reserved the rights
for the sale of Glendale water. A
new product will be the manufacture
of Glendale Springs ginger ale.
This drink will be bottled for Col.
Folk by the Chero-Cola people.
The opening of the bottling plant
at Glendale springs brings another
enterprise to this section. It involves
considerable capital, and will
give employment to a number of
workmen. Glendale has established
a wide reputation for its mineral
qualities. ,
Carlisle Shows Her Patriotism.
According to prearranged plans a
flag pole appeared on the campus of
Carlisle school last Thursday just in
front of the gymnasium. At four
5'clock in the afternoon the student
body gathered around the flag staff
and a very impressive ceremony was
carried out.. Three verses of "America"
were sung by the assembly. Then
Prof. Guilds introduced Dr. E. O.
Watson, pastor of Trinity Methodist 1
rhurch, who made an address eulogizing
the flag. Dr. Watson's address
was indeed excellent. In his own inimitable
way he traced the history of 1
aur flag and told of the things for 1
which it stands. Then, as the flag
was siowiy raiseu iu us pusuiuu u>
Mr. A. T. Whetsell and .Miss Grace
Pox, president and secretary, respectively,
of the senior class, the as- i
sembly sang in chorus the first veyse ;
3f our national anthem, "The Star
Spangled Banner." The meeting was (
then dismissed with a prayer by Dr.
\Vatson.

HOW TO CONSERVE FOODS.
.
Robert. Lathan and C. A. McFadden
Address Meeting Monday.
In accordance with a call by President
Wilson and later by Governor
.Manning for the people to institute
a campaign for civic preparedness to
pass through the crisis of war now
upon us, Mr. Robert Lathan, editor
of the Charleston News and Courier,
and .Mr. C. A. McFaddin, of the farm
demonstration work of the department
of agriculture, made addresses
at the court house .Monday. The
meeting had been arranged just a
few days previous, and there had
Arvnn *?+ it yi i f x- f A?* O r\ o_
ueeil 11 L11C luuu; 1UI au ? ci (.J.Oing
it generally, consequently there
were not many farmers present, although
quite a number of business
men and a few ladies were on hand.
Those who heard the addresses received
a message of great importance
not only to the farmers but to the
people generally.
.Mr. Lathan was the first speaker.
Mr. Lathan devoted his time to a discussion
of the necessity for preparing
for conditions that are bound to come
with the instigation of open hostilities
and war measures. America,
said the speaker, in this campaign is
trying to avoid the mistakes of Great
Britain and other allied countries.
These countries failed to prepare for
a long struggle, with disastrous consequences
Even now men whom it re- '
quired months to train for army duty
are being taken from the trenches in
France to go back to the farms. In
the coming crisis ever? person has a
part?service for everyone. The farmer
can serve his country just as
well on his farm as the man behind |
the gun. The importance or growing
food crops was greatly stressed as of
the utmost importance. Labor
throughout the country is fully 15
per cent, short this year, and there is
a food shortage throughout the
wor\d, a shortage perhaps unequaled
before. The South, which has been
importing millions of dollars worth
of food, must feed herself. The merchants
and other business men were
<
urged to do their part by cooperating
with the farmer.
Incidentally, said .Mr. Lathan, the .
raising of food crops will be extreme-; '
iy profitable, as unprecedented prices
are now commanded for all foods.
There is no assurance that South
Carolina will be able to import foods.
Within the next few months, the
United States will be mobilizing an
army unequaled in the history of the
country. The railroads will be taken
ever to transport the army and army
supplies, and there is a probability
Df many articles being withheld entirely
from transportation; and other
articles will be transported secondary
to the army and army supplies.
This means a shortage of transportation
facilities.
Cotton is not to be outlawed, howaver.
There will be a ready market
and urgent need for cotton goods, '
and cotton will continue to be a
- ? Vmf tlio nnint ctrpss
[JILMlLd UIU i up, uut i iiv w?. ?
ed by Mr. Lathan was that the fact
:hat oui\first attention must be given 1
:o feeding ourselves?not depending 1
3n the West as in the past, for the (
West will be busy feeding the armies. <
The people are urged not only to
produce as much food as possible, *
Put to save as much as possible. The *
Did Southern tradition of making the
table groan under food must be rele- \
?ated. We should practice the great- ?
est of economy. As proof of this Mr. j
Lathan referred his hearers to the
conditions in the war countries, t
where every force had been mar- 1
shaled to raise and conserve foods. i
Our people have become so used (
to big happenings breaking, that it is i
hard for us to realize that we are at 1
war. The speaker referred in t
rn illuminating manner to the \
activities of the armies on the i
European battle fronts, stating that 1
while the British victories on the 1
Western front are encouraging, con- <
iitions on the Eastern front are not
so promising. As to what Russia 1
will do is somewhat uncertain. If f
Russia should make separate peace, ?
it would deal a hard blow to the al- j
lies, and might necessitate sending j
hundreds of thousands of American {
troops into Europe. The people are 1
urged to prepare for a long war. It j
might be terminated soon, but an <
early termination rested largely on j
proper preparations at home. \
Mr. McFaddin stated that within | <
the next three, four or five years it <
would be necessary to readjust our j
system of farming, ana me suunu 2
the start is made the better. The
approaching crop would probably be ]
the, last ever made in this State be- j
fore the boll weevil appears. The ?
weevil has caused much suffering in j <
its wake because of the lack of prep- <
aration for its coming. He urged'
that immediate steps be taken for . i
Bamberg county to feed herself. The : t
cotton crop will have to be cut, un- ]
der weevil conditions, to from five to j i
11 acres per plow: this acreage is 1 i
not sufficient to provide a money <
crop. We must look to other crops, 1
in the future. I ;
The value of velvet beans was <
greatly stressed. This bean provided j;

Baseball at Carlisle School.
Carlisle very probably has the
5trr?n2PRt hasphall tpam this vpar that
she has ever put out. She has started
off the season in great style. The
big games are now on?Porter and
Bailey this week and other strong
:eams following. Porter has already
received her medicine.
Here's what the management
cvants to say to the lovers of baseball
:n Bamberg and the surrounding
communities: They have lost moneyen
every game played on the local
grounds this season! It takes money
:o run a good ball team, it takes
money to bring visiting teams here
:o play. The Carlisle management
cannot offord to have these games at
i heavy financial loss. On the last
*ame, for example, about $15.00 in
money, besides entertainment for the
visitors, was lost.
We believe the fans appreciate
:hese games. The critics tell us they
ire equal to first-class college games,
rhe management doesn't want to discontinue
them, nor do they believe
;he fans want them discontinued, but
anless there is an improvement in at:endance,
Carlisle, like some of tlie
ether institutions, will be forced to
call off some of her greatest games.
If you like good baseball go to the
;ames and carry your friends with

;he best crop obtainable. They may
3e planted now between corn, plantng
one hill of beans between every
)ther hill of corn. While providing
i most profitable crop, the beans go
further and fertilize the land, being
;he leading leguminous crop. The
ralue of soy beans and peanuts was
ilso discussed at length. There is a
Dig demand for soy beans for oil and
?ood products, and ready markets
;an be had for them.
Mr. McFaddin impressed upon his
learers the importance of planting
?ood gardens. One acre planted in
i garden, he said, would yield from
from eight to 10 times as much as
in acre of cotton, if properly planted
md cultivated. A flock of from 50
;o 100 chickens should be in every
farmyard. Such flocks will provide
enough to purchase shoes and clothes
for the family. Corn crops should be
rrown plentifully. Every farmer
should plant plenty of beans to eat,
should have a good sweet potato
patch, and should plant a patch of
sorghum for Hie hogs.
He said that it would pay to fertilize
heavily now, as the price of all
farm produce is high, and farmers
should grow just as much as possible.
Close attention should be given to
cultivation.
Help for the negroes was strongly i
urged. Negroes are the hardest class
;o be reach.ed in these campaigns, and ;
lie asked every farmer to talk to his j
tenants. He found that they are j
usually ready to cooperate with the I
white people, but that they would I
uot generally pay much attention to
government agents. Naturally the
small farmer will suffer greatest from
any lack of foodstuffs.

"Kidney Medicine" Confiscated.
Last week Sheriff S. G. Ray confiscated
a quantity of liquid labeled
"kidney medicine" from Charlie
Gregory, who operates the Busy Bee
restaurant, and ?rom Webster Handy,
a negro store keeper, both in Bamberg.
On being examined the concoction
wa^. found to be a cheap
quality of^gii^, it is stated, although,
according tcT the label the liquid was
supposed to contain only 23 per cent,
alcohol. About one hundred bottles
were confiscated from Gregory, and
38 pints from Handy. Cases were
made out against each of them.
Meeting of W. M. S.
The Woman's Missionary society, <
of the Baptist church, held its regular
meeting last Wednesday afternoon,
with .Mrs. Carter as leader.
Subject for the afternoon: "Unto
the Uttermost Part." An interesting
programme was carried out. A let- i
ter from Mrs. Fizer stated that we
had met our apportionment.
At this meeting our spring offering
for the orphan we are supporting
was taken up, the amount collected
being $16.50.
We regret very much that our
president, .Miss Annie Hartzog, found
it necessary to resign. As she urged
that her resignation be accepted we
were forced to carry out her request.
Mrs. J. F. Carter was eiecieu iu mi
out the unexpired term of Miss Hartzog,
the time for the regular election
of officers being in Xovember. As
Mrs. Carter has so kindly accepted ,
the office, let's each and every one <
pledge her our loyal support, hoping
for even greater blessings in the
future than in the past.?Contributed.

"Cleaner Sweep" in Denmark.
V "
Denmark, April 11.?At a meeting
here this afternoon the following officers
that were elected in the city
election last Tuesday were seated in
office: Mayor, J. Z. Brooker; alder- ^
men, W. B. Gillam, J. W. Lancaster,
T. P. McCrae, J. S. Walker, D. N. ~ ;
Cox and D. M. Cox. At their first
meeting the new council elected tne
following officers: J. E. Steadman,
Jr., city clerk; R. C. Hardwick, Esq.,
city attorney; W. J. Hutto, chief of
police.
The election last Tuesday was one
of the hottest that Denmark has ever
witnessed. Two straight tickets
were put in the field, one being the
old administration running in a body
and i the other a straight "new
ticket." The new ticket won by a
good majority and thus a clean J
sweep has been made, not only by
the mayor and aldermen, but all the
appointments made by them are new
people.
After the votes were counted and
the results declared, a number of
people joined in automobiles and ^
drove over the town, each carrying a
broom, representing that a "clean '--M
sweep" had been made. \
