The friends of Mr. \\\ M. Brabham
were glad to see him out on the
streets Monday, after an illness of
several weeks.
A large crowd of Bamberg people
motored over to Orangeburg Friday
night to witness the play at the
opera house that night.
On last Thursday Miss Addys
Hays entertained a few friends in
compliment to Mesdames Garland,
Wooding, Cabell, and Smith, of Danville,
Va., who are her house guests.
A most enjoyable hour was spent by

A meeting of the central committee
of the council of defense and the
community chairmen has been called
for this afternoon (Thursday) at
3:30 o'clock. Business of importance
is to come before the meeting and a
full attendance is requested.
All persons are reminded that
partnerships whose net income is
$6,000 or more are liable to income
tax. If there are any such prosperous
partnerships in the county, it
will be well for them to communicate
at once with Revenue Collector
D. C. Heyward at Columbia.
f The Cope telephone company, of
Cope, Orangeburg county, has been
commissioned with a proposed capital
of $2,000 to operate and maintain
telephone lines at Cope and adjoining
communities. The petitioners
are: X. J. Thomas, J. C. Shuler,
J. F. Cleckley, and E. E. Ritter, all
of Cope.
The Woman's Missionary society of
the Methodist church is called to meet
on Tuesday afternoon next at the
church at 4:30 o'clock. The subject
will be "The Humanitarian Law?
One Day's Rest in Seven." Mrs. G.
Frank Bamberg will be the leader.
A large attendance is very earnestly
desired.
The Domestic Science club will
hold its regular meeting Friday,
March 15, at 4 p. m., with Mrs. C. J.
Field. The subject for the month is
poultry keeping and a demonstration
will be given on preserving eggs in
water-glass. Every one interested in
home demonstration work is invited
to be present.

my and sent to Camp Jackson last
fall. In company with several others,
he escaped from a camp in Virginia
about a month later. Two of
the other deserters were captured several
weeks ago.
The Bamberg A. R. C. chapter
shipped to Atlanta on Friday afternoon
49 sweaters. All of these came
from the different circles in town ex'
cept three which were contributed by
the Olar branch. The transportation
committee expects to make a larpe
shipment of hospital shirts the latter
part of the week and asks the chairmen
of the circles to send in the ones
that are finished.
Supt. E. P. Allen and his assistants,
of the Bamberg graded school,
and Supt. E. M. McCown and his
assistants, of the Denmark school,
have made an occupational index of
about 600 or 700 of the registrants
of the county, most of whom are in
the first class. This card index is
for use in selecting men of special
training for various occupations connected
with army work during the
war.
Rev. H. H. Matthews on Sunday
addressed two large crowds in the
A- Al. . 1? X 4. ~ C A/NM
county in uie interest ui iuuu wu/
servation and other matters connected
with the war work of the
colored branch of the council of
defense. Sunday morning he talked
to seven or eight hundred colored
people at a church in the country,
and Sunday night he addressed the
congregation of St. John's Baptist
church, in Bamberg, where several
hundred were present.
An attempt was made one night
last week to break into the hardware
store of Mr. G. O. Simmons, on Main
street. The night policeman was attracted
to the rear of the store in
time to prevent the entrance of the
would-be burglar, however., No trace
of the night prowler was found, but
evidence of the attempt was seen at
the rear window of the store, where
two panes of glass had been broken,
and the prints of a "jimmy" were
seen about the window.
County food administrator A. M.
Brabham wishes to issue a word of
warning to grocers in regard to the
price of sugar. Mr. Brabham says
that the price of sugar is fixed at
ten cents per pound in any quantities,
and that if a grocer or anybody
else sells it for more than this price
he lays himself liable to punishment.
They are also reminded that they are
allowed to sell to town people only
five pounds at a time and ten
pounds to their country trade.

MAKES BETTER SHOWING.
Sale of War Stamps Shows Material
Increase.
In the last issue of The Herald
some figures published in the daily
newspapers as to the sales of war
stamps were given. This statement
put Bamberg just about at the bottom
of the list both in the total sales
and in the per capita sales for the
county. The Bamberg postmaster
calls The Herald's attention to the
fact that the figures do not give the
conntv entire iustice. This statement
gave the county credit for sales
amounting to $545.75 up to February
22. The sales to that date, as;
shown by certificates of deposit at the
local postoffice, amounted to $71S.87|
to February 22. It is presumed that;
all of the sales of the county had
not been tabulated for the published
statistics referred to above. This
puts the county in much better condition,
compared with the other counties.
It may be stated, also, that
the sales are increasing rapidly both
in Bamberg and at several of the
other points in the county.
The total sales up to March 1st
in the county amounted to $956.93.
Since March 1st the local postoffice
and one other office in the district,,
which has sent in a report, show sales
up to Wednesday of $389.62. There
have probably been sales at other
of the district offices, but the reports
have not yet been sent in. The sales
in the county up to March 1st, with
the added sales since the first of the
Bamberg postoffice and one other office
in the county, amount to $1,346.55.
The Denmark office reports excel
lent sales:; as also do the Embree
and Schofield offices. There havte
been some sales at Ehrhardt and
Olar, but these places have only recently
been organized. Organization
has now been completed, and
these places will swell the sales by
the next report. As yet no sales
have been reported from Govan,
Lees, or Midway.
Mr. J. C. Guilds, the county chairman,
has established 15 war stamp
sales agencies in the county, and
work on swelling the county sales is
now on in earnest.
To Discontinue Midway I'. O.
The J^ocal postoffice authorities
have received notice that the postoffice
at Midway will be discontinued
after the last of March. Mr. J. H.
Stoudemire is postmaster at Midway.
Some time since, on account of his
health, he sent in his resignation, but
as the discontinuance of the postoffice
was contemplated, he consented
to retain the position until the
affairs of the office were wound up.
The patrons of the Midway office
are notified that they should make arrangements
to have their mail delivered
by the rural carrier on route
three from Bamberg, as tms rouie
passes through the town and community.
The business at this office has
gradually declined for some time
past until now very little business
is transacted at that postoffice. All
patrons should remember to have
their mail changed before the date of
discontinuance, in order to avoid confusion
and possible delay in receiving
their mail.
Monument to Uncle John.
The Herald has received the letter
below from Mr. M. W. Brabham,
formerly of Bamberg, now a resident
of Richmond, Va. The letter is selfexplanatory.
Mr. Brabham suggests
that a fund be raised to erect a modest
stone" over the grave of Uncle
John Geiger, and he encloses his
check for $5.00 to start the fund
off. We think the suggestion an
excellent one, and we will be glad to
receive and acknowledge other contrubutions
to the fund. There are!
so many.people in Bamberg to whom
Uncle John rendered services that it!
would seem>there should be no dif-!
ficultv in raising speedily a sufficient
sum for the purpose.
Editors Bamberg Herald:?I have
just read of the death of "Daddy
John" Geiger and am writing to
make a suggestion to the people of
Bamberg, which I feel will make a
favorable appeal to them.
Such faithfulness and loyalty to
simnift tasks as given by Daddy John
t through a long period of years is not
| often found. Having been closely
J associated with the church of which
| he was sexton and with the banking
institution of which he was porter,
I came to know this old man quite
well. I never knew of his failure to
meet the duties of a single day. His
best was not always what people
wished, but it was his best and that
was all he had to give.
| My simple suggestion is that a
J fund be raised with which to place
t a modest stone at his grave telling
of his record and loyalty to every
interest committed to his care.
Herewith I enclose my check for
this cause and I trust that The Herald
will be willing to put this before
the people with the idea set
forth above. Yours very truly,
M. W. BRABHAM.
Richmond, Va., March 8, 1918.
WILL GET SOME NITRATE.
Xot All of Allotment Will he Shipped
Soon, Though.
.Mr. J. J. Heard has received a telegram
from the U. S. department of
agriculture informing the farmers of
Bamberg county of the status of the
government nitrate of soda matter.
It will be noted that only a portion
of the allotment to each applicant
will be shipped out at once, but that
the remainder will be shipped, probablv.
after ADril. The following is
the telegram received by Mr. Heard:
"John J. Heard, Bamberg, S, C.:
Owing to war conditions has not
been possible to obtain ships to transport
sufficient nitrate from Chile to
this county to make farmers delivery
during March and April of nitrate
needed in those months. Shipping
arrangements indicate ability to fill
later needs. Wish to deliver in fairest
and most equitable manner quantity
available. In order to save
time that would be consumed in sending
money to Washington and to
save farmers cost of keeping money
on deposit for long period and to
make delivery as quickly as possible
after arrival and to make best possible
use of car space, this department
contemplates appointing for
each of a number of counties where
conditions require a special distributer,
to whom all shipment for the
county will be made upon sight
draft with bill of lading atached
through bank already designated and
who will collect money directly from
o 4- A ?1 iir_
lcxiiiici afym-aiiia a.l ui uciuic ucn?"
ery of nitrate to them. Department
will make reasonable allowance to
distributer to cover expenses and services.
Fifty cents per ton would
seen reasonable except in unusual
cases where expenses are great. No
increase in price to farmer. Please
consult designated bank and local
committee and recommend suitable
reliable person willing to serve as
distributer your county and state
rate per ton at which he will serve.
Wire. "BRAND."
After consulting with the members
of the local committee, Mr. Heard
wired the department recommending
.the appointment of Mr. C. W. Rentz
ks distributer of the county.
It has been generally talked that
the nitrate was being delivered in
some counties. Mr. D. F. Hooton,
cashier of the Bamberg Banking Co.,
which is the bank designated to handle
this matter, took the matter up
with Dr. W. W. Long, head of the
farm demonstration agents in this
State, through whom the applications
were secured. Dr. Long informed
him that this report was not correct,
and stated that further than handling
the applications his department
had nothing to do with the distribution
of the nitrate.
Mr. Hooton has received the following
letter from Mr. H. C. Marshall,
acting chief of the bureau of
markets: '
"Dear Sir:?Receipt is acknowl
3 ^ - * 1 _ ?4 Afn V. C
eagea 01 your letter ui iuaitu u. v>umpilation
of nitrate applications is being
made as rapidly as possible and
just as soon as this work is completed
announcement of allotments
to farmers will be made. This information
is expected to be available
in the next few days.
"Between 75,000 and 100,000 individual
applications were received
by this department, the examination
of which entailed an enormous
amount of work. Yours very truly,
etc."
All Off for Jacksonville.
Two men were standing at a corner
on .Main street talking, when
they noticed an automobile?which
is not an uncommon sight in. Bamberg?but
this one attracted the attention
of one of the men, who made
a remark about it. The oth^r stated
that the occupants were bound
for Jacksonville. "To get liquor?"
asked the first, to which he was replied
in the affirmative. "But it
seems they would be caught the officers
are so vigilant now." "No danger
of that. These fellows are fixed
for it. They have all kinds of
hiding places for the precious fluid
?in the engine, beneath the car and
all about. I'll tell you they will
never catch them." About that time
the engine was started up and the
merry little jaunt to Jax was started
under auspicious circumstances.
(Don't get alarmed?we haven't the
least idea as to who you are.)
Dog Bites Little Girl.
One day last week just as the
school children were coming up the
street from school at Cope a small
black dog bit Mr. Jake Wolfe's little
.iauffhter Marialee nuite severely
under her right knee and then ran
on through town towards Snake
swamp. Parties in automobiles and
buggies gave chase. Mr. D. Stack
shot it with small shot, but it only
ran faster and was finally shot and
killed by Dr. Stuckey's brother, while
running as fast as it could just ahead
of the doctor's automobile. It was
later learned that the same dog had
been fighting along the road leading
into Cope from the north.
WILL PLANT TOBACCO.
Many Farmers Have Seed lie*
Planted Heady to Stmt.
Bamberg's newest industry is tl
planting of tobacco. Some montl
ago, through the chamber of cor
merce. a meeting of some of the lea
ing farmers of the community w;
held and plans were formulated fi
the planting on a small scale <
some tobacco. Arrangements we
made to employ a tobacco exper
and the services of .Mr. Daniel we:
secured.
The culture of tobacco requires tl
planting of the seed in beds early
the season. Inquiry among the plan
ers reveals the fact that these be<
nave neen piantea ana some or tne
now have small plants. As soc
as the weather gets warm, the plan
will be transplanted in the field
and cultivation will begin.
Mr. Daniel arrived in the city c
January 1st to take up his wor
but, unfortunately he was taken vei
ill and has been confined in a ho
pital in Asheville since. He has hz
to give up his work here entirel
The local tobacco planters have r
cently been busy trying to secui
the services of some other tobacc
expert man, and are hopeful of ha
ing a man on the ground soon.
Tobacco cultivation requires i:
tensive methods, but the crop is soc
made, and as a rule the cultivatic
and harvest is complete by the fir
of July, or perhaps sooner.
The Herald's information is ths
about 120 acres have been prepa
ed for planting this year. Th
acreage will not be sufficient to wa
rant the building of a warehous
but it is believed that if a succe:
is made this season, there will be r
difficulty in securing a much larg<
acreage next season. If 300 acr<
are planted to tobacco, a warehous
can do a thriving business.
The climate and local conditioi
ground Bamberg are said by expe
tobacco men to bp ideal for the plan
ing and cultivation of the weed, ar
it is to be hoped that the experim'ei
this year will prove that this is co
rect. There is no doubt about toba
co being a most valuable crop in ar
community where it will grow ar
thrive, for the selling season usua
ly begins about the tenth of Julya
season of the year in Bamberg whc
there is usually no business carri(
on to speak of. In fact July is pra
tically a dead month here, wherea
in tobacco centres, it is one of tl
busiest months of the year, as tl
crop always turns loose a lot <
money.
The present price of tobacco
exceedingly good, and compares vei
favorably with that of cotton ar
other crops.
