The meeting was opened by prayer by Rev. Mr. Rctts. Mr. Wall next ( ? called on the audience to sing "Amcri I j ca." After the song Mr. Wall in a . few well chosen remarks introduced Senator II. L. Ruck, who spoke in his usual convincing manner. Mr. Ruck said that our fore-fathers had formed our Government for the purpose of ( protection. Now wo no longer think of waging wars, but our Government , has the general welfare of its oili0 '/.ens as its chief aim. This canning ' club work is one of the new ideas of the Government. That Horry was j not a laughing stock as was supposed by some, but that she was at the head of this movement in South Carolina. The Senators reference to the other speakers as being a part of tlie Wil-' , son Government brought prolonged applause from the audience. Miss Edith Parrott, State Agent1 of the Girls' Canning Club, came ! j next. She said that twenty-four of | the Counties of South Carolina were i organized with a county agent in . charge. That in these 24 counties there were 2,500 girls organized. Stic said that they only organized in counties that took an active interest ; ( W) Jlfwl <\nl\i i 4- ~ wKxt vtii(Y t ^ i rift UlilL WOl'l(l I | work. She urged all the girls to put i only the best fruit in their tomato* ... i As it was the quality that would sell , them. She said that the Commissioner of 1 Agriculture had made the estimate | 1 ^ that fourteen million dollar; w . sent out of South Carolina last yearn for food stuffs that could have m ? i ; < raised in the State. She said t'.at twenty-four thousand dollars wa ; 1 saved by the Ciirls' (fanning Clubs last year. She said that another fea- : j turc of this work would be the organ- ! ization of poultry clubs. That the | State had secured the services of u > specialist in this work for a limited j t time only. That he would only work 1 4 in three counties this year and Horry ; 1 would be one of - iiem. She said that i1 arrangements had been made with 1 Winthrop College for two scholar- I' ships from each of the organized counties these scholarships to be j' awarded the two girls in each coun- j ty that made the best yield on their 1 tomatoes. J) She said that arrangements had been made for 24 booths in the State Fair building at Columbia. That one booth would he assigned each organized county, and urged all to send i their best exhibits. < After Miss Parrott Mr. Wall asked 1 all canning club girls to come up on < the stage ami sing the canning club song;. This song was sung to the ; m tunc of "Dixie." Miss Moore led the choir and Miss j Dusenbury was at the piano. Next Mr. Wall introduced Prof. Nivcn of Clemson, assistant State Horticulturist. He said that those in the canning clubs were laying exam pics that future generations would profit by and that those who had been laughing at Horry had not travW clled over it as much as he had. That Horry had a greater future than over 1 half the counties. 1 His talk was on the culture of tomatoes. He'said that a plant was a ! living thing and we were closely re- < I _ M * * jnica 10 it. Let us do all wo can, said i ho, to develop and help it. Ho said that wo must first consider how to Ik handle the soil in order to make it w hold moisture. First break it deep . then pulverize. If the plant is not drink in# it is not eating. Be careful in transplanting;, never roll up the roots or little feeders. We cultivate for two reasons. First ' for moisture; second to kill woods. He 1 said that a weed was a plant out of < its place. That a cabbage in a to- < mato patch would be a weed. T He said that in order to keep the ' moisture you must keep stirring the 1 soil so that the little tubes through which the moisture would escape 1 would be broken up.- Prof. Niven's address was full of interest and 1 showed that he was thoroughly familiar with agricultural conditions. After Prof. Nivon had concluded, a. Miss Lois Howell read a paper on ^ "Our Visit to the State Fair." Next Miss Kuby Moore made a one minute speech on the trophy cup won by her at the State Fair. Next came Miss Louise Brown county agent of Marion county, with a short speech. She said she brought ^ good wishes from our sister county, f and complimented Horry on her progress. ^ Last came Mr. Colin MrLaurin. rurm demonstrator for Marion county, who complimented Horry on her exhibits at the State Fair. Mr. Wall closed the meeting by * thanking all who had taken part in v helping prepare dinner. The meeting was adjourned and K STATE POULTRYMAN. To Speak at Lorta on Wednesday, May 27th. Mr. Frank C. Hare, State poultryman, representing Clcmson College and the U. S. Bureau of Animal Industry, will give a lecture on the poultry club work at the Loris school at Loris on Wednesday evening, May 27th. The lecture will be illustrated with stereopticon views on this subject. Mr. Hare is coining to Horry with a view of organizing this county thoroughly next year. All members of the poultry clubs una illi others interested in this important work is urged to be present. Remember the U. S. government never does things half way.

The Summer School at Winthrop ] College will begin this year*'on June lGth and continue to July 24th. We believe this will be one of the best summer schools ever held at Winhrop College. Provisions will be made for the needs of supcrintendcachers, primary grade teachers and rural school teachers. Perhaps nowhere in the South will greater op ? Or? juiluiuwch do oiiercct lor teachers to i jcttcr prepare themselves for next 1 (/ear's work. Last summer Horry sent her larg- ; :;sl d< legation to the summer school < iml all who went did good work and not good positions when they came j 1 back. The trustees do not call for teachers nov/as they did live year.. < igo. Some want teachers drilled for < primary or advanced, work. The County Board of Education of ; 1 lorry is very anxious f< r a larg.- per.. on1 ago of the Horry teachers to at- < tend, the summer school, believing < that it is the best opportunity to bet- < . r equip then-selves for teaching I mat you have ever had. We neli ve that a small outlay for ! < this purpose would be a great gain M to Hie county. As an incentive to attend the sum-i i ?icr school the County Hoard of Ed- 1 acatloii of Horry has agreed to pay 1 '10 towards the expenses of each I: Horry te: .'her who attends the sum-j ] nor school, and returns io Horry to sch and liles with tiie county super- i ntendent of education a certificate 1 mowing that he or she completed 1 die subjects. ] The recreation, the lectures by our i rest educated me n and women and i i he association with teachers from 11 liiferent Statics do not only pay you, 1 nit make you a stronger and more i ierviccablc teacher.

TKUEM iiiT?r ISSUED BY BERRY BUYER TO VARIOUS FARMERS. 1 t> i 4 v I S TRYING TO LOCATE K a is fc The Man Who I'ndertook to Pay With Orders on a Bank Where h There Were No Funds. ' V One of the strawberry buyers on j the Loris market was A. L. Marvel, ^ and he operated there until the iirst j, part of last week,buying the berries ji;i from the farmers and shipping north ^ by the car load. Marvel had been in ?pj copartnership with C). 10. Kilby, in whose name all of the berries were purehascd and paid for, but the shipments were generally made by A. L. ; Marvel to himself at some point in . 01. Virginia, and from that point the J jjv cars would be divcrtevi to the places , j0 where sales had been made to commission men in various cities. No me doubts the honesty and integrity no ef Mr. Kilby, who last week, at the vo Lime of the occui rcnce, was buying | . , berries at Adrian or other near-by j v0 points. It seems that Marvel had jje icnt oil' a number of cars, and had ..\v Irawn in the name of L. C. Kilby ! ou :>n the various commission men for a '1H certain per centage of the value, as i;l is the usual practice in such matters, md deposited the drafts at the llank af Loris. For some cause which ; seems little known these drafts during the last week or ten days were . , returned unpaid, so that on Monday [ v there was nothing at the Hank of j -0 Loris to the credit of the business jn igainst which Marvel could draw jrdcrs for the payment of berries. It is said that Marvel was notified by the Hank in the morning that the account was overdrawn, and that the ilrafts mentioned had been turned iown. Notwithstanding this, Marvel , bought berries on Monday May 11th, stc and paid for them by issuing to the coi farmers a small receipt which was in an effect an order or draft on the Hank ioi r>f Loris for the value of the pur- i ne ha^e in each individual ease. Am ut bo three car loads were obtained in this th; way, and as the bank closed in the (!. ?ar!y afternoon, the farmers having' ut to hold the 'orders" until Tuesday, the lack of funds there to pay was not discovered until Tuesday late in ! the day. In the meantime Marvel had left on the early train, having 1 shipped away all of the berries. One ; party in Loris received a telegram 1 f * A I 1 I 4^ I-.,-, me I ruin Hi ill '? ?' I \\ i 11 > U tin v.v? wv q in Wilmington, N. C. Later another telegram came to another party 1 1 from him from Hamlet, N. C. It ap ' .. pearcd from this that the telegrams i a ( night be framed up. Anyway the; . farmers were without their money jV* for the strawberries they had sold , rn lim, and many of them were in the itai right condition to bring legal proceedings could he have been located. At last accounts the proceeds of )f the sales of some of the cars had joen hold up in the hands of commission men, and efforts were being , . nade to locate Mr. Marvel. Some >ne in Loris stated that . Mr. Marvel l,.1, bad left word with some one that he was calling on relatives or friends at {[u some city in Virginia or North Caro-jNV0 lina. While many took the view that j there was something very radicaly , j wrong in the matter, there were oth- ' cms who took the view that the agent , t would return after a few days and 10< the whole matU r would be straighten sd out to the satisfaction of al4 parties concerned.
