SHORT LOCALS.
Brief Items of Interest Throughout
the Town and County.
Considerable progress is being
made in the construction of the addition
to the cotton mill. The work is
being done by the contracting firm of
Potter & Shackleford.
B. F. Free has about completed
the erection of a two-story brick
building on Railroad avenue, and
also a galvanized metal building. It
is understood that all of the stores
have been rented and will be occupied
at once.
The Bamberg Bottling company,
the city's newest manufacturing establishment,
owned by Thomas
Ducker and B. F. Free, began operation
Saturday. The plant is equipped
with modern and sanitary new equipment,
and has a large capacity.
Fire completely destroyed one of
the cotton mill cottages in the mill
village Monday afternoon. The fire
alarm was sounded and the fire department
responded, but as there
was no water hydrant near the house
nothing could be done to save the
. house.
Rev. Geo. P. White was called to
Augusta yesterday on account of the
death of his sister. Miss Elizabeth
White, a trained nurse, Who died
early yesterday morning. Miss White
was about 35 years of age, and was
known to many friends in Bamberg,
where she has visited.
Tobacco beds are said not to be
x thriving as well as expectea in tne
county. The seasons were favorable
when the beds were planted and the
seed germinated quickly, but the
.growth has been slow. However,
there are some fine beds in the county,
and some of the tobacco planters
expect to begin setting out the plants
about the first of April.
The friends of W. Shelly Miley
are delighted to see him back in the
city again. Mr. Miley had his left
arm lacerated in a gin near town
several months ago, and it was necessary
to amputate the member at
the elbow. A month or so ago Mr.
Miley found it was necessary to return
to the hospital for another operation,,
when the entire arm was
_ amputated at the shoulder. His 1
many friends hope that he will rapidly
recover his usual strength.
r
A great many farmers have already
planted corn. It is the custom of
some Bamberg farmers to plant corn
on the tenth of March, regardless of
weather conditions, and they say the
indications are good that the corn
will not be killed. Many planters
are expecting to plant cotton the latter
part of this month, in an effort to
beat the boll weevil. As a general
rule early cotton will be planted this
year, and every effort made to get an
early crop, as this is said to be the
best way of defeating the boll weevil.

in the navy of Uncle Sam, Lieut.
Commander D. Graham Copeland,
son of Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Copeland,
Sr., of Bamberg, has handed in his
resignation, which has been accepted.
Lieut. Copeland is .now a plain mister.
He expects to leave this week
for 'New Orleans, where he will be
located after a-visit of a few weeks
to his relatives and friends here.
Mrs. Copeland is now in New Orleans.
Mr. Copeland enlisted in the navy
when quite a young man, and has (
traveled practically all over the
world while performing his naval
duties. For a long term of years he
was stationed at the U. S. naval station
un Cuba, and when the United
States entered the war he was assigned
to duties in Europe, spending
several months in England and Ireland.

The second grade youngsters were
bringing back their health charts for
their teacher's inspection in one of
the city schools. One after another
had passed through her hand without
comment. "Then she came to one of
a little boy who always looked very
dingy indeed. "Why, how is this,
William?"- she asked. "You have
marked a bath saying you have taken
a bafeh every day. Have you taken a
bath every day?"
William was positive in his assertion
that he had. But the little boy
across the aisle was not. "Why, I
bet he has taken a bath all over
for a whole year," he said. "I know
'cause I live next door and they
haven't had their tub off the porch
except on wash days for I don't
know when."

HUSBAND AND WIFE DEAD.
Mr. and Mrs. H. \V. Herndon I>ied
Friday of Influenza.
The epidemic of influenza in 1918
and again this winter has cost Bamberg
county many of its best citizens
and many homes have been invaded
and left to mourn the death
of loved ones. Of all the deaths in
the county, one of the saddest was
the taking a\vay of Mr. and Mrs.
i enry W. Herndon, of the Hunter's
Chapel section, both of whom died
011 the same calendar day, Friday,
y* 1. -I M ? T T J ~ . I 4 I. ^ J

his last about one o'clock Friday
morning, and when the death
angel visited the home, Mrs. Herndon
was lying in another room at death's ,
door, with no hopes left for her recovery.
Both of them had contracted influenza
some two weeks previously,
and pneumonia had set in several
days before their death. For some
days little hope had been held out
to relatives and friends for their
recovery, although at times it was
thought they had slightly improved.
The body of Mr. Herndon was interred
Friday afternoon at Spring
Branch Baptist church, the Rev. Walter
Black, pastor of the church, conducting
the services, assisted by
Revs. S. 0. Cantey and George P.
White, of Bamberg, and the Rev.
D. H. Owings, of Ehrhardt. The remains
of Mrs. Herndon were buried
the following day at the same place.
Mr. Herndon was about fifty years
j i
of age. and one of the best citizens
of the county. He was a large planter
and had been quite sucessful. He
was of an unusual jovial nature, and!

thousands of acquaintances, by whom
lie was held in the highest respect. |
He was twice married; first to Miss!
Sandifer, the daughter of the late'
George Sandifer, and by this marriage
is survived by one son, H.
Clinton Herndon, who has also been
ill with influenza, having contracted j
the disease while attending the sick J
it his father's home. His second (
marriage was to Miss Copeland,
laughter of the late Alfred Copeland,
ind of this union one daughter, Mrs.
lasper Padgett, of Denmark, survives.
.
Mrs. Herndon died at eight
)'clock on the day of her husband's
ieath. She was a woman greatly beoved
in the neighborhood and by all
tvho knew her. Both Mr. Herndon
md Mrs. Herndon were members of
;he Spring Branch church, and were *
luite active in church work.
The entire county is greatly griev- 1
id by this coincidence of the death *
)f husband and wife in so shbrt a pe- 1
iod of time, only about nineteen T
lours elapsing between the two *
leaths.
ERECT EEDRYIXG PLANT.
I
Another Industry to be Added to f
Bamberg Tobacco Market. ?
1
M. B. Burc-h and A. M. Denbow c
lave perfected arrangements to erect t
lere a tobacco redrying plant, and it t
s understood that work will be com- f
nenced at once on the construction c
if the necessary buildings. Mr. j
Surch, who is an experienced tobacco t
nan from the Piedmont, superintend-!
ng the cultivation of tobacco here s
or several farmers, states that a re- s
Irying plant is one of the biggest j
actors in the upbuilding of a to- v
iacco market, one that all of the B
eading markets of the state have t
uch plants. t
The capacity of the plant here will c
e approximately 15,000 pounds a
[av, which can be increased accordng
to the demands made upon the
ilant, and will give employment to a t
arge force of employees, probably I
00 to 200. An experienced manager (
ias already been employed to super- e
ntend the plant. A steel building e
s to be erected, and it will probably s
ie located near the B., E. & \V. sta- I

The Carlisle School Band. p
The whole of Carlisle school is a t
ride to Bamberg, but one institution e
if the school is especially attractive. c]
"his is the band. Everybody agrees t
hat the band manufactures tuneful j
uusic, and the folks who know ^
omething about music say that the r
and has made most wonderful prog- 0
ess. The band was organized last c
all after the beginning of school
mder the direction of Captain John
Lanham, of Spartanburg, band
naster. When the band was or- 3
;anized, the members of the organ- 1
zation knew practically nothing t
ibout music, but as Captain Lanham t
las had a great deal of experience in

vith great care. The result is the t

onsiderable favorable comment, c

OITLOOK IS GOOD.
Tobacco Man Says Prosj>ect Fine For
Good Prices This Year.
.Sanford Christman, of Kentucky,
who is considerably interested in the
Bamberg tobacco market, stated
Tuesday that the prospect for a good
price for the "weed" this season is
sxcelient. He says that the indications
are that the crop will be short
all over the country, and that there
will be a ready sale for all grades of ,
:obacco.
It is estimated that there will be at
least 3,000 acres planted in tobacco ;
In Bamberg county this year. This
icreage, says Mr. Christman, should j
make Bamberg one of the best mar- <
kets in the country. With a good
narket started here, Bamberg will <
'eceive large quantities of tobacco i
:rom counties where no markets are ;
located. i
To Appoint Farm Demonstrator. i
Henry S. Johnson, of Aiken, dis- ]
:rict agent of the farm demonstration ]
vork, spent a day in Bamberg last ;
-veek. Mr. Johnson stated that a <
'arm demonstration agent will be ap)ointed
for Bamberg within the next ;
.veek or two, to succeed George R. ;
3riggs, who resigned the first of the i
ear, and who is now agent in Oconee ]
:ounty. i
Mr: Johnson says that he has in ]
nind the appointment of an agent ]
rom the boll weevil section of Geor- i
fia, and in fact this gentleman has 1
)een in Bamberg himself to look ]
>ver the field. Mr. Johnson feels 1
hat it will be especially beneficial <
o Bamberg county to have an agent (
rom the boll weevil section, in view i
>f the fact that the weevil is ex t
>ected to be widespread throughout 1
his county this season.
Provision was made at the last sesion
of the legislature in the county
upply bill to continue this work in
Jamberg county, and Mr. Johnson is
ery anxious to make the appointnent
as soon as possible in order ?
hat the agent may be in position to s
ie of value to the farmers during the r
oming cotton season. 1
Bishop Darlington. 1
Bamberg county was scheduled to

Arlington, Methodist Episcopal r
Church, South, but at the last mo- i
aent a telegram was received an- ^
touncing that it would not be posible
for Bishop Darlington to come. I

iunday morning, and had an ap- c
?ointment to preach at Buford's
iridge Sunday evening, but the \
fishop was prevented from keeping 1
ither appointment because of the
leath of a relative. The congrega- :
ions of these churches were eagerly I

this famous divine, and
nuch regret was expressed because

Miss Emma Jane Varn, of Ehrhardt,
Appointed County Ajient.
Miss Emma Jane Varn, of Ehrhardt,
has been appointed county
home demonstration agent for Bamberg
county, succeeding Mrs. Faust,
resigned. Miss Varn has already
taken up her work here, and hopes
to establish an office in the city as
soon as possible. In company with
Miss Bessie Harper, of Aiken, district
agent, Miss Varn spent several
days in the city last week looking
over the field here. She is eminently
qualified to assume the duties of
home demonstration agent. For the
past three years she has been home
demonstration agent in Colleton
county, where she was very popular
and did excellent work. She is the
daughter of Mrs. Mamie Varn, of
Eiirhardt, and is well known by numerous
friends and acquaintances
throughout the county.
To Our County Fanners.
The long looked for Soil weevil
is here and is expected to do much
damage to our cotton crops this year.
Let's heat him. Some of our leading
farmers have made the beginning.
They are going to plant from four
to six acres of peanuts to the plow
this year?a grand move. These
peanuts properly harvested and
threshed on peanut threshers in the
various communities, a home market
can be easily had. The oil mills in
Bamberg and Denmark are to put in
peanut 'crushing machinery and will j
buy all they can get.
Many of the farmers are to plant
a couple of acres of tobacco to the
plow this year. This is a great boll
weevil beater. A large portion of
the soil in our county is splendid for
tobacco growing. W. E. Spann of
Bamberg means business. In going
to Bamberg on the lower road, I saw
on Mr. Spann's place eight tobacco
barns, all lined up to help beat the
boll weevil. Tobacco will help bring
about the desired result if it is well j
worked, kept clean of weeds and j
grass, kept free from worms and well j
cured.
I kept straight to Bamberg that,
same morning, before reaching thej
town I saw an airplane sail around
and go down out from the town some i
distance. I had never been close to
an airplane and I did not stop in
town. I rushed c A near the place,
bitched and just before reaching the
plane, W. P. Sandifer, of Denmark,
and J. A. J. Rice, of Bamberg, two:
old friends, met. Mr. Rice said toj
Mr. Sandifer, "Say, W. P., what do
pou recKon: 111 cumiug uui ucic.
iwjiile ago, I passed a pile of lumber j
that is to be used for building a to-1
t)aeco house. I saw a large boll wee-'
/il with his square working from one;
?iece to the other." "What doing,
Rice?" "Getting the dimensions 01
;he building and seeing whether
:here was enough lumber there to
suild a barn large enough to beat
lim." "Did you catch' him, Rice?"
said Mr. Sandifer. "Yes." "What
r
lid you do with him?" "I let him
?o." The secret here seems* to be,
:o not let the tobacco barn lumber
ay too long.
