Jr., of Aiken, has been appointed supervisor of the 1920 census for the second congressional district. Dr. J. Thomas Carter will leave in a few days for Atlanta, where he will take a course in X-ray work. He is now in the mountains, where his family will remain lor several weeks longer.

County Agent Briggs went out to Hunter's Chapel the latter part of last week to investigate reports of the presence of the boll weevil, and secured several specimens of what appears certain to be the weevil. To be certain Mr. Briggs has forwarded some of the insects to Clemson college for examination. Mrs. John Henry Hutto had one of her legs broken a few days ago in a most unusual manner. While milking one of the family cows, another cow in the lot suddenly attacked her, and in being thrown to the ground suffered the small bone near the ankle broken. While her injury is quite painful, it is not serious, although she will be unable to use the limb for some weeks. On account of the heavy rains of last week, the Edisto river again became impassable Saturday. Some Orangeburg people who came over to Bamberg in cars were unable to return by auto, and many Bamberg people going to Orangeburg were compelled to go by rail. The river began to rise Friday afternoon, and by Sunday afternoon much of the river low lands were flooded. Arrangements are being made by the Ehrhardt Manufacturing company to install at an early date an up-to-date ice manufacturing plant. This concern was organized some I months ago, and already has a modern ginnery ready for operation for the present cotton crop. The concern has bought the old cotton warehouse at Ehrhardt, one of the largest buildings in the county, and for the use of its various manufacturing systems. ^ i?> ? . Leases Warehouse. Mr. J. L. Knight, of Lexington, Ky., spent several days in the city this week and while here negotiated a transaction whereby he acquires a loaoo rm wnrehrmse nf the Den bow Warehouse Co. for a period of ten years, at a handsome profit to ^ the stockholders of the company. Mr. Knight's lease on the warehouse is for the tobacco crop only. He stated that he had already made arrangements, with the leading home and export tobacco concerns to handle the tobacco products from his warehouses in various sections. The warehouse has already been made a part of the State Cotton warehouse system. The warehouse building has been about completed and is in readiness to handle cotton i* during the present cotton season.

Proved That the "Weed" Can he Successfully Grown Here. The following is from the Clemson College News Letter, under date of August 12: "Bamberg county's second year with tobacco has proved that the 'weed' can be grown profitably in that county, says County Agent George R. Briggs, who reports that tobacco experts from Lee county have pronounced a two-a- re field grown in Bamberg county by Mr. Fred Free ahead of anything in the Lee county section. "Bamberg county grew some tobacco, about a hundred acres, in 1918 for the first time, and employed an expert to superintend the growing and curing. This work was done under the encouragement of our former county agent, F. E. Floyd, who had had experience with tobacco in Marion county, and who did much to get farmers to start in the tobacco business. f "This year the acreage has grown to about 600 acres, most of it within a few miles of Bamberg, the county seat. This increased acreage was brought about by the success of the few farmers who planted last year, by the high prices of tobacco in 1918, and by the desire to prepare for the coming of the boll weevil. Some of the farmers who are growing tobac% co this year are: Messrs. Frank Bamberg, G. O. Simmons, B. V. Kearse, Jervey Smoak, A. M. Brabham and J. W. Hill. "A tobacco warehouse is now being built for the next year's crop, and there is every indication that tobacco from rfow on will be an important crop in Bamberg county. ^ < 1 > Wm BAMBERG'S FIRST BALE. Jesse Gray, Colored Farmer, Secures Honor For Third Time. Bamberg's first bale of new cotton was ginned Monday afternoon at the ginnery of the Cotton Oil company, in this city, and to Jesse Gray, a colored farmer, goes the honor this year. This is the third successive year that Gray has secured the honor of having the first bale of new cotton ginned. The bale of staple was sold to Rentz & Felder, local cotton buyers. It classed middling, and brought thirty cents the pound, which was considerably above market quota tion. The bale weighed 534 pounds. Gray is quite a progressive farmer. He operates a four-horse farm on the plantation of Mr. J. M. Grimes, a few miles from Bamberg. ^ i i m* Scarcity of Crossties. Mr. G. F. Ogilvie, representing the tie department of the A. C. L. railway, Wilmington, N. C., was in Bamberg last week in the interest of his department. Mr. Ogilvie states that the growing scarcity of ties throughout the country has become very alarming, and that the railroads are facing a tie famine unless measures are taken to conserve the supply. Inasmuch as this section of the State has furnished in the past a large percentage of the supply of crossties, Mr. Ogilvie is appealing to the people to conserve the supply in order that the roads may continue to be supplied, and also that this profitable source of revenue may not be diverted from the South.

As Usual, When it Goes OH', it Killed a Little Negro Hoy. The "unloaded gun" has laimed another victim. This time it is a little negro boy, Lartee Dortch, and it was in the hands of another negro hoy, Theodore Mitchell. .The accidental killing occurred Wednesday about four miles from Ehrhardt on Mr. J. M. Dannelly's place. Coroner Zeigler held an inquest over the dead boy, and the evidence clearly pointed to a plain accident. The .Mitchell boy's parents had gone to church leaving him at home, and he got out the family shotgun and went to the field where the Dortch boy was with his step-father. The boy entered into a conversation with the elder man and after reciting a story of what a fine dinner he had left him by his parents, the elder man told him to go and bring him some of it, and he started off down the oath, with the little Dortc-h boy going along with him. The final word was to be very careful about the gun, but the boy said it was unloaded; also that he had the safety on it, so there was no danger. When they got a few hundred feet away the gun fired, and Mitchell called out that he had killed the 8-year-old Dortch boy. The Mitchell boy has been placed in jail on a technical charge of murder, but it does not appear that he had any intention whatever of killing his companion. MUS. H. H.

WILL INSTALL LAUNDRY. Carlisle School Prepares to Put in New and Modern Machinery. The question of the school laundry has been one that has perplexed the authorities of Carlisle school for some time, and in view of the almost impossible task of getting the stilting the students' laundry done in town, on Saturday a contract was closed for the installation of a modern steam laundry at the school, costing between $3,000 and $3,500. The announcement is made that new and the most modern machinery obtainable has been purchased, and that the laundry will likely be in readiness for operation by the time school opens in September. A small building is to be erected on the school campus, and a competent man will be employed to operate the laundry. While the laundry will be installed because of inability to get the work done in town, at the same time, it is announced, only a very moderate charge will be made the students, the laundry not being in any way a money-making enterprise. A five-horsepower motor will be installed to drive the necessary machinery, this being possible since the beginning of day current this summer. Remember we carry a complete line of paints, stains and varnishes. Simmons & McCartha, The Hardware Men.?adv. CARD OF THANKS.
