AUCTION OF DUROGS !
MADE AT CAMDEN
Brings Farmer Big Returns
From Rather Small
Investment
FROSPECTS ARE GOOD

Fa*jners Are Giving More At-|

Subject.
It. O. Hanson wont to Camden on
I
Saturday before last and sold at
auction forty-six Duroc Jersey pigs
whinli brought for the owner of them
the neat sum of $1,300.00.
These pigs were from five sows
and were all pigs of the early part
of 1918 coming in from early Spring
to the month of August.
One fact which stands out among i
all the others in thus farmer's experience
with these hogs is that tin*
pigs were raised on \ el vet beans, soy
beans, cow peas, and a very sma.l
quantity of corn, all of which mat< - ,
rials were raised on the farm of the
owner.
These fact about the groat profits
from stock raising in this State* are
mentioned livm time to time in this!
paper for the encouragement of
Horry farmers who, we are glad to
say, seem le> be paving more attention
to stock raising than they used j
to do.
Prospects in this county for large
profits to farmers from stock raising
seems to In* a^ good as the outlook
anywhere in the State of South
> ? - ? i H
I .".ronna, ihimih'ss men sum ouutn
should lose no opportunity of extending1
encouragement to the farmers
of Horry County in their efforts
to improve in stock raising.
Any Horry farmers who have had
success recently in the raising of
hogs or other live stock are asked
to write their results to the Herald.

TIME WAS OUT.

The tipie for placing applications
for nitrate of soda from the government
expired last Saturday. The
Herald learns of many farmers who
got their applications in in time to
get this soda at the- government price
of $81,00 per ton and freight from
the point from which delivered. Other
farmers put off the matter too
long and are too late. They will
doubtless want it later and be sorry |
that they did not take advantage of J
me cnance.

TO SAVE RICE CROPS.
Charleston. ? A rocent order of
wide interest lvis been issued by Secretary
Houston permitting the killing
of rice birds in certain seasons,
designated for different sections, in
order to prevent their destructive inroads
upon growing rice crops. This
order is the result of an extensive investigation
made by the department
after the migratory bird treaty act
regulations went into effect July 31,
.1918, which protected the rice, reed
b;rd, or bobolink, from being killed.
Rice planters of this section lodged
a protest, as soon as it became known
that the rice bird was protected and
similar protests were lodged from
other sections. The order permits
the killing of rice birds in this State,
among others, from August 16 to
November 15, inclusive, but forbids
their being offered for sale, sold or
tranpsorted for purposes of sale.

i
Charleston negroes have addressed '
a petition to the general .assembly, (
Governor Cooper, Lieutenant Cover- %
not Lilcs, Thomas 1'. Cothran, speak
c r of the house, and John E. Swear- i
ingen, State superintendent of educa C
tion, asking that the civil code of t
1912 be so amended that negroes be t
allowed to teach in the negro schools i
i. the city of Charleston. During i
the day bills were introduced in both 1
houses, to prohibit white teachers i
from teaching in schools set aside \
for negro pupils. The petition from t
the Charleston negroes reads: t
"We the citizens of the negro race t
and parents of pupils of the .afore- c
said race in attendance as pupils of t
the public schools of Charleston, do
through our committee, to wit: Thorn 1
as E. Miller, John M. Thompson, Wil i
liam 11. Johnson, Edwin A. Harlcston
and Charles C. Jacobs, most re- 1
spectfully petition for assistance and
relief from the uncalled for, unmve
sary, unusual, abnormal conditions
that sui round and control the man- \
ig* meat, in truction and teaching of i
the children of the aforesaid race i <
the public schools of ihc city of Chai i
lesion. f
"fifty-six years aft* r freedom,
the negroes of the city of Charleston a
e denied the right to teach negro children
by negroes in the free
schools of Charleston, and wherca>,
we need relief from this unnecesasry,
unusual abnormal condition, anci
whereas we have thousands of odu
cated men and women who are prepared
and worthy to teach the chi:
clrcn of the aforesaid race in the city
of Charleston, and whereas under j
the existing law of the free publicschools
of the State of South Caro- 1
lina, it is impossible for teachers of ;
the negro race to teach children of
the negro race in the free public '
schools in the city of Charleston; 1
and whereas negTO teachers do teach 1
negro children in every ether city of
this State and in every city in every
one of the 13 old slave-holding States
of the Union.
'>
"We therefore, most humbly petition
and pray to each and every one ;
o; you in authority to have Section
1780 of the civil code of 1912 amend ;
c i so as to read: 'That it shall be unlawful
for a person of the white race
to teach in the free public schools of
South Carolina, provided and set
aside for the children of the negro
race.'
"We, the undersigned committi "
most respectfully ami humbly beg to
state that we are not a self co stituted
committee of a few educate !
negroes of the city of Charleston, but
\V( are the chosen leprosentatives of
the petitioners, namely: Of more
than 10,000 adult men and women of
the negro race in the city of Charleston,
vho are petitioning and begging
you in authority to use the got
j c'oii rule toward, for and over them,
| iii the teaching of their children in
j the free public schools in the State
of South Carolina."
On motion of J. B. Atkinson the
petition was received as information
,'incl ordered printed in the house
journal.

O. 1>. Jenkins farm near Conway, had
success last year in raising cotton

- on about six acres and brought $2,
, 100.00. On this he used a light
- sprinkling of stable manure and 800
