In the past few years Ehrhardt has made great progress in several ways. She has made npid strides in growth numerically and financially. This growth has come about without any special effort by any body. What then would be the result, if all the business men would make special efforts to have a better Ehrhardt? Mr. Jefferies. Editor of The Press and Standard, has seen fit to give a page in his paper for the Ehrhardt news and advertising. This partly fills a great need loqg felt by the wide-awake ni**r<hant. This will give every ni**rchan» an opportunity to ad vertise, his business in a widely read paper. The merchants in the smaller towns seem not to realize the im portance of advertising. They remain idle and inactive in that respect, and thereby lose an Aiormous amount of trade, which goes to the city, when if they would advertise it would bring the business to them, .^ow Mr Mer chant wake up and take advantage of this opportunity, enlarge your busi ness and have a better Ehrhardt. Mr. Law tom Bishop.. On the evening of the 12th July, the Death Angel visited our town claimed one of the oldest and best citizens. Mr Lawton Bishop. The end was not expected as he had been sick for several weeks,' his death being expected at any time. Uncle Lawton, as he was usually called, was a man of high ideals and a noble character. He was a strong member of the Lutheran church, a devoted Christ .an and a true citi zen, standing always for that which was right and that *'hich would be for the best of the church and com munity’.

Fighting BoU Weevil. Atlanta, Ga.. July 22.—Farmers in Western Alabama and Mississi ppi are making a determined and winning fight against the boll weevil and are being given support by busi ness men, declares Mr. T. O. Plunkett Manager of the Department of Farm Improvement Work of the Southern Railway and affiliated lines, who in company with Mr. J. C. Williams, Assistant to President Finley, has just completed an inspection of farm Conditions along the Southern Rail way, the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, and the Alabama Great Southern Railroad in this territory. ‘•We did not find a community.” says Mr. Plunkett, “where there is any excitment or the slightest sign of panic but every one ia In line deter mined to produce cotton under boll weevil conditions. Thousands of adult weevil were destroyed while the cotton was small and where they escaped farmers are now destroying infected squares. On every hand we found appreciation of the efficient services of the agents of our depart ment and farmers are generally heed- f 'ing their advice in fighting the^veevil. I have been in close touch with the boll weevil since 1990 and I believe that farmers in this territory have heeded the warning given them and will not suffer as did farmers fuf- ther west." r "Farmers who have adopted the methods advocated by our agents are expecting increased yields in spite of the weevil, add with the determined fight now being waged. I see no rea son why the general yield in this great section should not be normal, though individual farmers who have refused to take the advice of ex perts are sure to lose heavily.” “Items'of Penlef}*’ Walterboro.
