By John K. Anil,
Executive Secretary, South Carolina
Natural Resources Commission.
Fresh from the iodine* ^ fields of
Bamberg and Orangeburg Counties, a
constant stream of vegetables is now
Bowing into the markets of Washing*
ton, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Roches
ter and Buffalo, and intermendiate
points.
Walter D. Ross, whose home was
formerly at Dover, Delaware, heard
in Chicago some months ago an ad
dress by Dr. William Weston, of
Columbia, managing director of the
South Carolina Natural Resources
Commission, which lead to an inten
sive investigation by Mr. Ross of the
opportunities offered by this State for
the growing of truck for distant mar
kets.
As a result of that investigation,
Mr. Ross has purchased a handsome
residence at Bamberg, and during the
past four weeks has sent twenty-
seven solid truck-loads of South Caro
lina vegetables to the States of New
reach the East and North within some
twenty-four hours less time than suit
able plants from any other section.
The total number of these plants to be
shipped by Mr. Ross will run way up
in the millions.
• Under his direction and financed by
him, several hundred acres were plant
ed in lima beans around Denmark,
Bamberg, Boland, Cope and North.
He has now in the various communi
ties of this section 100 acres of Irish
potatoes, 30 acres in onions growing
from seed and which will mature from
July, to August 15, 125 acres inMima
beans, 15 acre s in asparagus seed for
the growing of crWns, and about 45
acres in tomatoes. Mr. Ross expects
to experiment with the transplanting
of asparagus crowns to other soils,
but that is largely an experiment. The
45 acres of tomatoes in addition to the
areage planted for tomato plants, and
these 45 acres include different va
rieties from which seed will be care
fully selected for future planting.
He is under contact to handle
York, Maryland and Pennsylvania and for the farmers through that section,

He has shipped asparagus, squash, mark, including what will be hauled
psaa, string beans snd cabbage in from Bamberg, the yield from 700
addition to hundreds of thousands of acres of cucumbers, 600 acres of corn,

were, of course, not shipped with a of watermelons.

here as a s ha recrop basis; we furnish

“I c»me to South Carolina/* said
Mr. Ro«s, “to look into the matter of
establishing a canning factory. After
looking ever the ground I decided to
go first into the shipment of fresh
vegetables. Before another year we
will have a canning factory either at
Bamberg or at Denmark, hut this wi’l
he in addition to these other activi
ties. Just as in the case cf the ship
ment and marketing of fresh vegeta
bles, we will welcome local capital
here in the canning plant industry,
but if local capital should not be
available, we will establish the plant
with outside capital.”
Mr. Ross expects later to seek the
organization of local cooperative as
sociations in the several communities
where he operates, with the primaly
object of securing proper grading and
packing cf every crate and of every
individual package within the crate.
He has paid special attention to the
grading and packing of the produce
which he has sent out and is now send
ing out, and the label which he uses,
including the legend “Grown in the
Heait of the Iodine Belt” U a guaran
tee of quality, but through local co
operative associations this work of
maintaining proper quality standards,
he says, could be much more conven
iently done. He says that in order for
the marketing of South Carolina fruits
and vegetables to result in the high
success of which he is confident, theie
must be proper grading and packing,
and that lack of such quality stand
ards will work material detriment to
the growers of the State.

CONTRAST BETWEEN FIATHFUL-
NESS AND SLOTHFULNESS
WESSON TEXT—Matthew *5:14-30.
OOLDEN TEXT—Well done, good
and faithful aervant; thou haat been
faithful over a few thtnga, I will make
thee rular over many things: enter
thou into the Joy of thy Lord.
PR1MARV TOPIC—Doing the Best
for Jesua.
JUNIOR TOPIC-f-Jeaua’ Rule for
Promotion.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
IC—How to Uae Our Talenta.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC—-Stewardahlp of Service.
This parable, like that of the ten,
virgins, has a vital relationship to the
second coming of Christ. In both in
stances the unpreparedness for His
coming on the part of the people is
shown. In that of the ten virgins their
unreadiness consisted in their lack of
the inward life-^-absence of the Holy
Spirit. In tills of the talents, their
failure was properly to use the gifts
which God had entrusted .to them. The
first was failure to watch; the second
was failure'to work. To each of His
servants. God entrusted certain gifts
and will hold each responsible for their
use. By talents Is meant whatever
faculties and powers one possesses as
gifts of t*od—physical strength, rea
son, energy, knowledge, influence, time,
money, the gift of *i»eech and song.
I. The Distribution of tho Talants
<vv. 14, 15). • *
1. It was a sovereign a<T.
The Lord railed His own aervants
and distributed to them His own
money. He did not consult us as to
our gifts. The One who created us
and absolutely owns us has assigned
us our |da«*e and gi>en ua our ee\erat
powers. Intending that we put them to
the beat possible uae.
2. It was an Intelligent net. “Accord-
Uig to his several ability.**
The God who created ns knew our
ability to uae gifta. therefore made the
dietrihtilInn ii|M»n that basis.
X It was a |Hin>o*eful act.
The talents were given to f»e traded
with, not to be used for one's own
gain and profit, hut aa stork In trade
for the enrichment and glory of the
Master.
: II. Tha Employment of the Talenta
Cvv. 16lv)
1. All tbe servants re«*ogn1*ed that
the talenta were not their own; that
they were therefore responsible to tbe
l<or«l f'»r tbe use made of them. This
Is the first principle of right (Tiristlnn
service. We should remember that we
are all stewards of the manifold bless
ings snd gra«*e of God.
2. Two aervatits used their tulentt.
The rt«e-talenr man put his to use ami
gained five more, und the tw«Muleut
uuin put his two talents to nse and
gained two in«ce. Tills sIhiws that
God's gifts can Ik? Increased. The ex-
crclse of any gift Increases It. The
faithful use of what we have in the
place where vve are will prepare us f«»r
greater usefulness und honor.
3. The one hid his talent.
TIm* fact that one |K)ssessea hut one
talent should not discourage him, but
rather make him strive the more. God
doc* not reward according to what we
possess, but according to our faithful
ness. The crime of the one-talent man
was not that he bad but one talent,
but that he hid the talent which the
Lord gave him.
HI. Tha Accounting for the Talenta
(vv. 19-30).
1. Its certainty (v. 19).
There is a day coming when all must
give account of their stewardship. An
swer must lie given as to *ihe
made of God’s gifts.
2. Thfc time (v. 19).
It. will he at the coining of
Lord.
3. Judgments announced (vv. 21-30).
(1) Reward of the faithful (vv.
21-23).
a. Praise. “Well done.” All like to
be praised. How blessed it will lie to
hear from the lips of the Lord Him
self. “Well done.” b. Promotion. The
great consideration for all is not how
many talents we possess, but as to
bowTamfful we are in ttretr
Punishifieht of the faithless (vv. 24-30).
The one-taleut man lied when brought
to account, a. Reproach. “Thou
wicked und slothful servant.” To be
called lazy is a reproach disliked even
by a lazy man. b. Stripped. “Take
therefore the talent from him.” Even
the talent which had been given to him
was now wrenched from him. c. Cast
out. “Cast into outer darkness.” lids
servant was condemned on his own
ground. The very fact that he knew
the character of Ids Lord should have
been an incentive for him to have ex
erted himself.

They Would Como
If we were once to live as though
we had something that they (the un
believers) have not, we would not
have to preaa men to come to os; they
would come without pree»!ng.—F. Ek

Duulh of W. H.
Goran, May 26.—This community
was greatly shocked when, on the
morning of May 14th, the Death Angel
eisited the home of Collins and
bore away his spirit'to the land of
eternal rest. Although hig death was
expected, it was indeed a great ijhock
when it was learned on Wednesday
that death had claimed him in the
early hours of the morning. He had
been in failing health for several
years but at the time of his death he
seemed to be improving.
Mr. Collins wag 68 years, 8 months
and 8 days old at the time of his
death. He was a good Christian man,
a devoted father and husband. He
united with the church at an early
age and grew up serving the Lord.
He was superintendent of the Sunday
School at George’s Creek for a num
ber of years, but on account of his
failing health had resigned only a
short time ago.
He was bom near Govan and has
lived in that community all of his
life. He was a member and also a
senior deacon of George’s Creek. His
seat is vacant and wiil never be filled.
He has many friends who will miss
him.
His body was laid to rest in the
Double Ponds cemetery the day fol
lowing his death, in the presence of a
large congregation of relatives and
friends. His resting place was covered
with many beautiful flowers which
showed the esteem in which he was
held. The funeral was conducted by
his pastor, the Rev. Mr. Dannar, as
sisted by the Rev. Mr. Crosby, of
Olar.
He is survived by his wife, who be
fore her marriage was Miss Mary Ann
Weeks; four daughters, Mrs. C. Black,
of Barnwell, Mrs. V. B. Huggins, of
Rocky Mount, N. C., Mrs. H. J. High
tower, of Denmark, and Mrs. C. D.
McCormack, of Walterboro; five sobs,
F. W. Collins, of Rocky Mount, N. C.,
J. B. t Jessie, Clarence and Marion Col
lins, of Govan; fourteen grand chil
dren and a host of other relatives and
friends who mourn his departure.
Slvep on. dear one,
And take thy rest;
Wa loved thee much—
God loved thee best.
S< meday we shall meet
On that beautiful shore,
t Where loved ones—
Part no more.
