tEfje Pamberg Heralb
ESTABLISHED APRIL. 1891.
Thursday, March 28, 1918.
The city of Aiken, which is only
slightly larger than Bamberg, has a
business street 150 feet wide nicely
paved with vitrified brick, which gives
one passing through the town an excellent
impression of the place. It
looks business-like. At one end of
the street, stretched across it, fiies a
large service flag, containing a star
for every Aiken county man doing
service in the army or navy. A
paved main street and a service flag
would add much to Bamberg's busi
ness district.

An alien enemy arraigned in NewYork
recently is reported to have
said: "Certainly I am one of the
kaiser's men. I am proud of it. The
German spy system already has this
country beaten." If that man is allowed
to simply be sent to one of the
detention camps, it will be a travesty
on justice. An American^ in Germany
making such a statement of
Germany would in all probability first
be shot and then tried and convicted.
We can see no reason why good food
should be wasted^ in feeding such
parasites, and our large cities are
afflicted with thousands of them.
g? -
s". South Carolina is not asked or expected
by the federal govrnment to
raise foodstuffs for export. We are
only asked to feed ourselves. The
burden placed on the farmers in this
State is simply that they ? raise
enough to feed South Carolina, and
* this is ^eiltainly not an unreasonable |
request. The rest of the country has
!he burden of both feeding themselves
and the allies. It is entirely
t , possible and probable that transportation
difficulties within the next year
will preclude the possibility of foods
"r, and feeds being imported into this
State from the West. South Carolina
\ annually uses 53,000,000 bushels of
corn, whereas the State' only produced
last year 43.000,000 bushels. It is
therefore imperative that more corn
must be grown. It is probable that
^^gamberg county, however, grows suf^JjyHRfent
corn for home purposes, but

[this respect. The idea is to raise
enough and some to spare of all
food crops, and then plant every acre
of cotton possible. By doing this,
our farmers will easily become the
most prosperous people in the world.
Dr. W. W. Long is authority for
the statement that South Carolina
leads the United States, and therefore
the world, in the value of agricultural
products per acre. This is
an interesting bit of information, and
something that is not generally
known. Dr. Long also states that
South Carolina stands second in the
Southern States in the value of
agricultural products per farm, Louisiana
being ahead of us by a small
margin. He calls attention to the fact,
however, that by a farm is meant
each tract of land farmed by one individual:
that is. if a farmer operates |
a twenty-horse farm, tentanted by
twenty share-croppers, the census department
consider^ that twenty farms
instead of one. Inasmuch as the
share-cropping system is largely used
in this State, it is likely that this
States leads in this respect also. In
the matter of wealth per square
mile. South Carolina stands sixth in
the United States. As Bamberg is
said to stand first in the amount
*of income taxes paid this year,
I it is reasonable to suppose that
we must lead South Carolina; and,
therefore, the United States. And
the United States leads the world, as
is generally known.
Mr. Hoover Please Notice.
The boarders were dropping hints
as to the kind of dinner thpy'd like
to have on Christmas day. But the
landlady was astute. "What's the
difference," she asked the solemn
man at the end of the table, "between
a turkey dinner and a mess of stewed
prunes?"
"I don't know," he answerd, suspicious
of some entangling conumdrum.
"Does nobody know?" she asked,
looking round the table
They all professed ignorance.
"In that case," she said, "I may as
j well serve prunes at Christmas and
! save money."?Ladies' Home Jour!

Some Like That.
A farmer calling at a dentist's,
promptly and cheerfully stated his
business as soon as he entered the
operating room.
* "A tooth to be pulled," he said,
"and I'll pay nothing extra for gas.
Just haul it out if it does hurt."
The dentist smiled. "You're plucky,
sir," he said. "Let irre see the tooth,
please."
"Oh, tisn't me that's got the toothache
at all," said the farmer, "it's my
wife. She'll be here in a minute."?
