K: The weather for the past ten days
Pt; has been all that the farmer could
| wish for. It is generally believed
I that the boll weevil cannot stand too
P much cold weather. The snow and
I ice gave the ground a thorough
I chill for a few days, and everybody.
K-I is expecting a better crop year than
| last. Incidentally, the weather pro|
* phets are promising some more of the
I same kind of weather during this
f month.
Ill The commissioners of public
works are receiving many congratulations
upon the success they have
attained in securing a water supply
for- for Bamberg. The commissioners j
^ have been troubled no little for some
months past on account of thejnade^;V
quate water supply here. The new
well bids fair to supply* the town
plentifully for many years 10 come, j
and the well is so arranged that in
the event the present flow diminishes
to any great extent, the well can
he deepened without removing the
W>- piping, and thus tap a new source at
|f|/ greater depth.
The Herald would like to call attention
to the advertisement of the
county supervisor in this issue of The
'Herald regarding the practice of
[g^: dragging plows in the roads. The
practice is so widespread and gen*
1'?x xl ?J o 4- -5 + c* ??oAon t

^ sitting recommended some strong action
to abate the nuisance. The counI;
. ty is now engaged in spending enorB|y
mous amounts of money to give the
people of the county a systena of good
roads, and the planters should re<gard
the efforts of the authorities to
the extent certainly of cooperating
to preserve the work. It is absog||v
Intely useless to build a road if the
g|!v plowv hands are allowed to turn their
plows in the roadway, which not

only drags sana into me ruau. uui
produce a surface most uncomfortable
to travel over. The recommendation
that the landowners arrange
Hp* to cultivate two or three rows of
crops parallel with the road is a most
excellent one. This would allow the
plow hands to turn their plows at
the-end of the rows without having
R; i to* go into the road.

BLACKVILLE BUREAU
Death of J. W. Bock.
Blackville, January 31.?Friends
and relatives-of Joseph William Bock
of Aiken will regret to learn ot his
death, which occurred at his home
there Monday afternoon, after a
short illness, having contracted a severe
cold last Friday, from which
pneumonia developed, resulting in
his death. Mr. Bock was the only
son of Mrs. Ella Rush Bock, who was
originally from Barnwell county, but
who has been living in Aiken with
her son for many years. His father
was the late Joseph William Bock,
a jeweler and prominent citizen of
Charleston for many years. The deceased
was 55 years* old and leaves
a widow and one son, Karl, who died
several years ago while at college.
The funeral services will be held to
morrow at Aiken, and the body will
be brought here for interment.
Body of Soldier Buried.
The body of Joseph N. Murray,
who lost his life on Flanders field,
was brought here for interment last
Saturday morning. He was not a
I native of Barnwell county, and was
1 somewhat of a stranger here, but
had worked for Charley Mathis in
i South Carolina, Colorado and California.
r He was working here for
Mr. Mathis and boarding at George
Chitty's when he entered into the
service. Mr. Chitty and his wife
thought a great deal of the young
jman, who had no relatives, so he
was buried in their family square in
the Blackville cemetery. Owing to
lack of information concerning the
shipment of the body and the hour
fixed for burial, there were not many
at the burial, and he ' .lot receive
the visible tributes o aspect generally
accorded heroes of the world
war who are sent home for inter

Hold-up Intercepted.
What might have been intended
for a sure-enough hold-up, or a hoax
to get cash, was interrupted here I
Saturday night. When Sam Izlar
Buist, who clerks for Simon Brown's
Sons, was returning home he was
accosted by a stranger on a dark part
of a street who asked him for five
dollars. Mr. Buist said: "I haven't
five dollars; the sight of that much
would make me fall dead." The
stranger then said: "Well, go back
up town and get me some," which
remark' inspired Mr. Buist, who was
fortunately armed, to reach quickly
for his pistol, which caused tne
stranger to "burn the wind." The
policemen were at once potified and
all precautions were taken, but no

"Sorry, I can't help you, buddy,"
was the answer, "but the law doesn't
