summer when the feet swell,
breaking in a new pair of shoes
is torture indeed.
Make your old shoes do during

My charges are moderate, and

SECOND GROWTH
COTTON RAISED
Georgia Farmer Covers up
Stalks and Gets Second
Early
Albany, Ga.?Great possibilities for
the successful growing cotton under
boll weevil conditions are believed
by some close observers to lie in "second-year
cotton," or cotton grown
from the roots of the previous season.
The advantage lies in the earlier start
which such cotton gets over that is
grown from seed, and also from its
heavier fruiting.
Before the boll weevil nnnpnrpH in
-- ?r r?" vv*
this section, effort was never made
to protect the stubble of cotton
through the winter, as it was easier
to plant for new growth. Now, however,
when the earliest possible start
is necessary in order to have the
plants well fruited before the weevilsd
become so numerous that squares no
longer form, the advantage of saving
cotton stubble through the winter is
beginning to be realized.
An experiment on the farm of G. P.
Baggs, a successful Mitchell county
planter, is being watched with a great
deal of interest, and promises remarkable
results. Last fall Mr. Baggs set
aside two acres of cotton for the experiment,
running a plow in the furrows
and turning the soil over the
cotton roots. In the spring the soil
was drawn back from the stubble and
cultivation was begun. Those who
have seen the field recently state that
practically every stalk in the two acres
put forth, and that Mr. Baggs has
practically a 100 per cent stand.
The "stubble" cotton, as it is called,
is fruiting remarkably, and the statement
is made by those who have seen
it that there is several times as much
lint per acre in prospect on this experimental
patch than in anv other
cotton on Mr. Baggs' place. The further
advantage of the experiment is
seen in the earlier fruiting, it appear-1
I mg now uvai tne stubble cotton will
be nearly a month ahead of that for
which seed were planted in the spring.
What would happen to stubble cotton
during a severe winter is a little
uncertain. Last winter was unusually
mild, and the ground did not freeze
a single time in Mitchell county.
Things might be different where low
temperatures were registered during
the winter months, as sometimes happens
in this part of the state.
However, as* it is a simple matter
to turn several inches of soil over
stubble in the late fall, a farmer
would be little loser even if such pro
tection should fail. It is stated that
a number of farmers throughout
I southwest Georgia will make experi>
ments similar to Mr. Baggs' next fall.
He is keeping a careful record of his
own experiment.

at the convention in proportion to
the miles traveled. If you come ten
miles you will count as much as ten

school twenty miles away will count
a lot. Load the old Ford up. She
will carry ten, so don't go by yourself.
Mr. Leon C. Palmer of the State

DEFENDS MAPLE SOCIETY
Editor The Herald:
Please .allow me space in your paper
to say a few words about the
Literary Society at Maple. First allow
me to say that this, the best
thing ever established in this community.
is being fought like fire by
a few of the less progressive citizens.
Lies have been circulated over all of
this section of the state concerning
it. Men who have sons and daughters
and grandchildren as members
are abusing it to a bitter degree.
The only thing these enemies of
ours seem to have against the society
is the jokes. [ wish to correct their
attitude tow.ird th^ society on this
respective point. When we first organized
the society we put jokes on
the program the same as debates, recitations,
readings, etc. But it wasn't
long before some of the members,
who perhaps were tender hearted, began
to get mad and f?y off the handle.
One of the members saw fit to trv to
have them done away with, if possible,
and nut before the society an amendment
to have jokes abolished. The
members voted on this at an early
date and according to the result, jokes
are still retained as a part of the program.
But for the last several weeks
the program committee has not put
them on the program. As this is the
case we might say jokes have been
done away with, although they have
never been voted out.
The Maple Literary Society is nondenominational,
but a threat percentage
of the members are Baptists and
several of them are members of the
Maple church, while others are believers
in the Methodist faith. We
don't wish to have any .arguments
through the papers, but the fact that
the society is composed mostly of
Maple boys and girls, we don't see
why members of other churches should
see fit to try to down the society.
One preacher who is considered one
of the best iit the county, made remarks
of an unfavorable nature concerning
the society last Saturday
night at a meeting of an organization
similar to our society, but of another
denomination. He stated that
the church would never own it. We
suppose the meaning of those words
was that it was objectionable to the
church. At this juncture let me admit
that the purpose of the Maple
Literary Society is for the up-building
of humanity. It learns us how
to speak, it helps us to become wise
.and to perform the duties of manhood.
It gives the young folks a
chance to get together and enjoy
themselves; not as it has been called,
a "giggling school," but in a decent
and social, friendly way.
It has been told by some of our less
respected citizens that those who enfrairpd
in si fi<rht t.hnt 1 nr?k snmo
time ago were members of the society.
I wish to inform the public that this
is untrue. One of our members was
in this fight, but last Thursday night
a motion was made to have him turned
out of the society and the motion was
overwhelmingly adopted.
This society is not composed of
boys who are always in trouble and
are not worthy of being citizens, but
is composed of the most learned and
highly respected "boys and girls of
Maple school district.
The enemies of the society would
have the public believe that everybody
around Maple is against the society.
This is untrue. The society has been
recommended very highly by all of
the leading citizens of this section.
The school authorities are helping us
along with. We should not worry.
There has never anything been started
here but what the back sliders had
to break it up.
In conclusion I beg to state to the
public at large that all you hear
about the society is not true, and if
you ever chancs to pass through this
part of Horry county I assure you
thnt vaii will bo enn eiirh

SCHOOL
HAS RECEPTION
Last Thursday evening the faculty
of the summer school, the teachers
attending and some friends who are
particularly interested, had a get together
meeting at the Burroughs
school.
Hon. Robert B. Scarborough in his
masterly way, made a most helpful
talk to the teachers, emphasizing the
dignity of teaching as a profession.
Mr. Cartrette, principal of the summer
school, then invited all present to
descend from the sublime to the ridiculous,
to lay aside schoolroom dignity
and play some games. After this
recreation cooling refreshments were
served. Mr. Parker entertained the
crowd with hair-raising ghost stories
and the pleasant evening was over.

BANNER BROS.
OPEN A STORE
I.?ast week the Herald carried a half
page advertiesment of the opening of
the store of Banner Bros, on Third
avenue, in the store formerly owned
by the Conway Bargain House, sold
some time ago to F. C. Todd, and
occupied until very recently by the
Sparks Company.'
The Sparks Company vacated the
store on the first of July and moved
to one of the Collins stores on the
eastern side of Main street. After
the removal the old wooden floor tlv.it
had rotted away in a number of places
was removed and a cement floor finished.
Banner Bros, had moved in e.arly
last week and were opening large
quantities of dry goods and notions.
They have had a long experience
in the dry goods and notions business.
back to a community, as some would
have you believe.
Maple welcomes you. It is the
home of some of Horry's best citizens.
In passing through our community
the public is asked to remember that
to some extent the literary socicty is
helping it to become the home o?" a
more God-fearing people, a people
that welcome strangers and a people
who advocate and believe in everything
for the betterment of the community.
