Solvcy lius Taken up the Mutter uiitl lias tlio Assurance of Col Wat*on to Help In the Matter if the Farnio: a of Horry Will Help ThemselvesIt is know probably by few of our citizens that the United States Government has a Department of Farm Demonstration Work with a branch at our State Capitol in Columbia. Its purposei>to send out agents into the different counties, or rather to employ local men in each county whoso duty il is to give instructions and assistance to the farmers as to improved methods of farming. It is understood that this matter has been taken up by Col D. A. Spivey, Senator from this county, with a view to'getting an agent located in [Jorry. lie has had some correspondence through Col E J. Watson, tho Commissioner of Agrl- ( culture concerning the matter. In a con verstaion with him a few days ago, Mi' Spivey said he was hopeful of gottiug tho department to loca'.o an agent here, ( "1 feel that it would be a great help to our farmers" said he, "could i we get the Columbia branch of this wot i< interested, as well as Commissioner Watson's Bureau, in Horry firming. My understanding is i that they will o.nploy a local man i ? an experienced farmer?paying him from $50 to $75 per month. He will establish his otliee at the oounty seat, or some central point, and be prepared to furnish all kinds of in- j formation relative to up-iw-date farming. It will be his duty to can- i vass the county, or visit farms upon request of the owner, and give such advise and instructions as he may j bo able to do All to be done under ' the supervision of the head office in 0 >!utubia and without expense whatever to the farmers of the county* ' Now, am not fully posted as to all the benefits to be derived from this s.cfouv>, but T am aware th%t it i-> in opera4ion in almost all the other counties, and I don't see why. If the.ro be advantages to be derived Horry is not getting her share of :'in.,,. t . _* ii ?* ii. jl uu UHiy answer 4 IS Mi ill I "[lurry has not asked for ilM thus Implying th u we are not alive to ** up-to-dne farming, and are satis)fljd with the present progress wo are miking. Now, it may be true that we <4h.we not asked for |t" horutoforo, but I feel sure that our farmers are fully alive to tho necessity of improved methods of farm in:?, an;l wil1 gUdiy welcome the establishment of such au agency hero \ hwo seen C>1 Watsqq porsoq ally, and lie assures me that if the mUtor was taken up by our business people, and the farmers themselves, that we could secure it. With the Farmers Union now organized jn our county, this Would bo an ex4 0ollent agency through vvhloh tq seoure it I trust that thev will through their union make a demand for tho demonstration work in Horry. In the meantime why not have a farmers' rally at Oonway sometime in the noar future. I presume Congressman JUHflrtie would gladly A r?

There is only one way to cur*. deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous dniog of the Eustachian Tube When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation cm betaken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hear^ ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases ont of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inllamul condition of the mucous surface. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

Burroughs Has His Left Hand And Part of Ills Arm Cut Off. There was a very serious accident to Mr A M Burroughs last Thursday morninir whereby he sustained ?r ?r "*/ " """"""" the loss of his left hand and arm He is the owner and manager of the A M Burroughs Lumber Company, and had just gone to tho plant and was attempting to arrange something that was wrong about one of the saws, when some part of the machinery caught his sleeve and pulled tho limbagaiost the saw. His hand was cut otT near the wrist but the rest of his arm was so badly mangled tjmt a surgical operation was necessary, and it had to be taken off near the elbow. He stood the operation well and was doing as well as might bo exp3cted at last accounts. Mu&t he /Mistaken. The Herald* I notice an advertisement in your paper advertising a secret process for making manure and the advertiser claims he has bought the right for same. This scheme for skinning tho farmer has been triod and exposed by tho leading agricultural press and experiment stations as a fraud and farmers warned agaiust it. It has also been triod here and found worthless The Idea is to get the money, tho receipt is worse than worthless. Farmers make all the manure you can at home aud buy standard fertilizer that you know. The Herald Bhould not allow the ad in the paper. Geo Dickson. [Mr Dorman, the advertiser referred to by Mr Dickson, was born and reared in Horry; he is promineutin religious, social, business and nnl i I r?i iv.liw liio ir.mii vtVMt Vl? VtVOj II I O I UL*U??/II 1WI honesty aud integrity is known throughout the county and for this reason, as well as others, tho Herald acceptedtheadvertisement just as it would have done had Mr Geo Dickson brought in the advertisement.J HOWE'S GREAT LONDON SHOWS i\Q iy\oney H(is Been Spared to Make Ttila Show a Complete Siiii* ceaa. This year the show has boon enlarged so as to rank with any tsnted organisation on tho road. Thousand? of doll&rtf have been spent in improving every department. No one who is not in touch with the great show cao form any idea of tho Immensity of it \\ is a small oi|y iqitself, constantly on therpove but with all hind'-i Of rpochauical provisions for its running. vyun me monster snow aro its own I minister, surgqqn, barbe-s blacksmiths, eiftotriolans and oltiers. Jn the culinary department are employed fifteen cook$ and thirtysix w^Her> besides assistant cooks, meat cutters and pastry cooks. A circus is a splendid object lesson in systorn perfeot system. This is seen in the unloading of the cars and in every detail of the work. Every man Is held responsible for his particular duty. When Howe's Great Hondon Show exhibits here its well known Qoterio of funny foilowp, as well astho larg?? number of features which are not al lowed to be clowned, will attract large crowds tq the touts' of this popular show. The big show comes Saturday October S33rd. Muvh To Do About Nothings Editor Herald: I notice Mr Watts has given another statement of th^ ball game or replied to my statement whioh is quite dilTerenl from his first. . Why yes, I know wo did not dUv 1 nine innings at one of the guinea, simply beoa'ise the Salem boys wore satisfied and the umpire declared the game in favor of Tilly Swamp We were playing to the umpire's decision and not the players'. The Salem boys most certainly did meet us the 3rd of September, but we did not have a game because the umpire wanted to play according to bis rulos and we (the Tilly Swamp boys) were in a habit of playing according to base ball rules. Mr Hardee was the umpire and when he began playing to his rules we asked him to explain that part of the game and he skid if wo questioned him any more he would ex* pell us from the grounds. Of course natually, we could rot keep from talking and I guess he decided ho had rather quit and call the yamo than try to ex pell us from the game, or at least he did the former any way. Of course we started to plav a game on the 2nd and 3rd and Mr Watts gave the score wrong for we (the Tilly Swam]) boys) made two scores and I an; certain Mr Watts cannot or will not deny that and if ho doe? I prefer no further argument. C. A. Watsqt]. Several parties went deer hunting last week.

There was an investigation last Monday before Magistrate Sweet in a case brought against Dick Small a negro charged witn assault and battery with Intent to kill. The defendant was represented by an attorney but after hearing the evidence the Magistrate bound the negro over to court where he will hay? to answer next February. The oftlceof Prof Brown, Superintendent of Education, last Saturday was crowded with people who are interested in the location of certain school district linos near Adrian. It uoems that there are two districts iu that section, one of them boing an old district known as Popular school district, and two which were attempted to be formed later known as the Watts school district, and Booth school distriot. It seems that the new district cannot get the required territory without cutting in , the old district and this lias caused the trouble.
