THE BA^NWE^L PEOPLE-SENTINEL, BARNWELL, SOUTH CAROLINA
THURSDAY, APRIL 14TH; 1932.
APRIL 13, 1882.
The Fish Supply.—John Lambert,
king fisherman, says that there are
more fish in tb* wateri around Barn-
well this .'prinK than in any previous
year in the past ten.
The Weather.—The oldest inhabi
tant tells us that this spring is very
similar to that of 1849. In that year
there was snow on the 14th ami heavy
frost on the 15th of April. The fruit
crop was fair, the yield of corn ex
cellent, but cotton crops were poor.
hundred yaids broad. The substan
tial frame stables of Mr. S. C. Cave,
two miles from town, were blown
HymeneaL—Married, at Hard burg,
S. C., on Wednesday, 5th inst., by
Rev. Lucius Cuthbert, Mr. John G.
Thompson, of Williston, to Miss Sallie
K. Clyatt, of Aiken County. To our
happy young friends we tender our
best wishes for their lifelong peace
fulness and prosperity.
The Matheny Cultivator.—This new
and valuable invention of a w'ide
awake young Blackvil! e planter has
been thorough'y tested and approved.
With it, in the earlier working of
crops, one hand and horse can do as
much as two under our old system.
With it one ploughman can bring
from six to eight acre s of cotton to a
stand a day, aijd wherever introduced
it will do a great' deal towards re
ducing the cost of cultivation and
supplying the scarcity of labor.
Court House Notes.—Robert Al
drich, Esq., went to Charleston on
Saturday evening to take part in the
defense of our fellow-citizens in the
election trials.
Mr. Mike Brown of Blackville has
bought the Herbert Brown store and
the six acre lot south of the Presby
terian Church. We would like to
register him as a citizen of Barn
well.
Sunday’s Storm.— Between three
and four o’clock on Sunday afternoon
a severe wind, hail and rain storm
visited thi s township. The track of
the hurricane was not more than a
down and completely wrecked. Orre -
valuable hor.-e was instantly killed,
but six other mules and horses were
rescued, fum the ruins and found to
be only sightly injured. The rain
fall was the heaviest ever known in
that neighborhood. Jack Jeffcoat
tells us that 150 p!ne trees were
blown down within 100 yards of his
hou-e and that when the storm sub
sided the hail stones were two inches
deep on the floor, and that lails were
-eartHed-fifiy-yards hv the wind.
Blackville.—Pat Drew is a champion
gardener. Ten days ago he had pra
ties a s large as his heart.
Last week Mr. J. J. Whaley caught
below hi- mill at one haul of his seine
seventy-five trout.
Mr. James Diamond has a perfect
stand of cotton on twenty acres plant
ed in March.
Mr. G. W. Pi ice’s shops are crowd
ed with sick cotton planters and
shabby genteel vehicles, which are
being handsomely repaired and made
good as new.
Mr. J. B. Zorn is making a specialty
of manufacturing the popular Mathe
ny Cultivator.
Editorial. #
Political doctors are numerous.
They are as blatant and aggressive
as pateht medicine mixers. Each has
a panacea that prdVnises to cure all
the ills to which our body politic is
heir.
An extra ses-ion of the General
Assembly for the purpose of redis
tricting the State seems probable.
At its last session the Legislature
provided for the election of Congress
men at large in case its representa
tion s hall be increased. . . . We
have sufficient confidence in the good
judgment of Governor Hagood to ap
prove whatever he shall, after a care
ful survey of the situation, decide to
be best.

HOPOCATRUC
By G. Chalmers McDermid.
I have had several inquiries during
the past week as to the advisability
of the use of sulphate of potash in
watermelon and tomato fertilizers.
Judging from results which I have
.^een over the watermelon producing
territory, I would say that a side
dresser analyzing about 0-5-25, with
the potash derived 25 per cent from
sulphate and 75 per cent from muri
ate of potash, is about what the
melon grower.* get their best results
from.
As for the us e of sulphate of potash
on tomatoes, I would say that I
haven’t much information on the sub
ject, but a great many commercial
tomato growers tell me that they in
sist that at. least 25 per cent of the
potash in their tomato fertilizers be
derived from the sulphate of potash.
You can take that statement for what
it Us worth to you. Most of the com-
"merc»al tomato growers on the
Beaufort and Charleston County
farms use 1000 pounds of 8-4-10 per
.acre.
A great many of them side dress
with another 500 or 600 pound s of
the same fertilizer just about the
time the first “hands” begin to form.
In side dressing watermelons, some
growers put out their mixtures when
the plants have four leaves or when
they start to run. Other grower.-
wait until the plants begin to bloom
well. At any rate side dressing
watermelons is the thing to do, and
if the side dresser analysis runs
about 0-5-25, the quality a nd size of
the melon s is generally superior.
Borne of us are wondering what to
'do about our azalea plants which had
their bark sjfl't during the freezing
weather some time ago. I had a talk
with Mr. Simmons of Simmons Nur
sery Co., the other day, and he ad
vised me to cut off the shoots which
were thus damaged, and that new
gaowth would come out during the
summer.
Ilf you haven’t noticed your plants
for thi g troubl e take a careful look at
the base of the plants which had
made vigorous growth tiurihg the 60
days preceding the freete, * and you
will probably shed tears, as I did.
I cut my plants away about two
'weeks ago, and they are beginning to
ahow promie e of new sprouts already.
' It took plenty of nerve to cut ’em,
*ut when l get instructions from
t.someone wfaf knows his subject, I
obey.
Congratulations! Mr. P. B. Brad
ley, on shipping a carlod of lambs
to the East. Would that more farm
ers in the Coastal area of South
Carolina follow your example.
Tennessee is one of the great lamb
producing Southern States. If Ten
nessee can do it why can’t we in South
Carolina? We may not have blue
grass, hut our pasturage is as good
as any in the whole U. S. A.
And ordinarily spring lambs are
just as good a* gold dollars.,. Breed
ing stock is cheap, cotton acreages
are falling backward, many of us are
growing more grain that we ever did
before. Why not add a few sheep to
your farming program?
Fertilized your lawn yet? Use a
pound of 7-7-7 or 7-10-7 for every
square foot of area in your lawn.
One of my good friends told me last
week that I hadn’t recommended
nitrogen in the 7-7-7, so here’s a 10
per cent recommendation if you care
to have it.
A pound of feitilizer in the right
place at the right time is better than
ten pounds of fertilizer put there too
late.
Upon Your Kneea
A marble cutter, with chisel and
hammer, was changing a stone Into a
statue. A preached looking on. said:
“1 wisli I could deal such clanging
blows ou stony hearts.” The work
man made answer: “Maybe you
could, If you worked like me, upon,
yunr knees.”—Contributed by Verta
