Resolutions were adopted declaring their purpose to act inde pendently of office seeking politicians, and uphold honest and good govern ment.

With the present yedr is inaugurat ed a new era in the South, if we are to judge by the magnitude of the new manufacturing enterprises that are springing up all over the land. Old mills have been revived and hundreds of new ones are already built, or are in the course of building. Former Local Pastor Retires Next Sunday fir. Robert W. Lide Completes Fifty- seven Years in Pastorate of Baptist Churches. Of interest to many people in Barn- wvll County is the announcemet that the Rev. Robert W. Lide, a former pastor of the local Baptist Church, w31 retire from the ministry next Samday sifter 57 years of service. Lairt Sunday night a union service was V3d in his honor at the Fiist Baptist Onarch Georgetown and described in the following di-patch from that Georgetown, July 18.—Honoring the Rev. Robert W. Lide, D. D., who next Sunday setires from the pastor ate, the congregations of Georgetown joined in a union service Sunday night at the First Baptist church, of which Dr. Lice is pastor. The Rev. H. D. Bull spoke of the hajsor, regard and e.-teem all the pas- tnTr, and congregations entertained for tlfcr' retiring pastor. The Rev. L. C. Saadeis and the Rev. J. B. Mack took l»art in the service. Music was fur nished by the combined choirs of the vu-terches, directed by Mrs. C. G. Bair.

On the first Sunday in June, hip completed his fifty-seventh year Vr» the pastorate, which began in Cheraw on June 6, 1875. Eighteen months ago, Dr. and Mis. Lide cele brated their golden wedding anniver- ISHtring this half century of ser- wirv* to the church. Dr. Lide has preached 6,387 sermons, baptised 875 prr.-ons, mairied more than 400 coup- Afi? and stood as Gcd’s man in the hoirr of death ever MOO times. The crowded church gave testimony the regard of Geoigetown for this man who lived among the people t > rfo rhtjm good. Fertilization:—The fig con-umes large quantities of potash and phos phoric acid. Use a feitilizer analyz ing about 10-5-10 at the rate of 3 pounds per tree for small trees and from 5 to 8 pounds for larger trees. Fiv e pounds of cotton seed meal per tree in the summer will give good results and correct many nutritional troubles, as well as adding much peeded humus to th e soil., ^ Pruning:—Pruning and tiaining figs has received far too little atten tion. Fig- should never b e grown as trees, but as bushes. Eveiy effort should be made to induce the bush ing or stooling. This will give better protection from cold, will give you bere fruit per tree, and will make the fruit easier to gather. 1 can’t find any definite informa tion on how to keep fig-; from sour ing, except that it is caused by bacteria action intensified by rain fall and hot weather, and allowing the fruit to fully ripen on th e tree. I Quick picking of neaily ripe fruit, a | minimum of bruising, and keeping 1 the picked fruit cool is about all w r e can do just now. Celestial and Brown Turkey—are the best shipper-, but figs are proba bly the hardest fruit to ship satisfac- torially.

Really the be-t way to shia^figs, is jfi the preserving fjar. Our folks who have figs, nearly always hav e plenty of them on the pantry shelves, but fclks who are not fortunate enough to have trees of their ow r n don’t get a chance to buy them. Fig season is with u.s now. Fig preserving, according to the Home Demonstration Agents, is not a hard job. Our farm and city homes which have fig trees in the back yards could certainly help out with running expenses, by preserving. And who doesn’t like fig pieserves? can buy canned figs, yes, but they just don’t seem to have the resl low-country South Carolina flavor. As one of our old “Darky” friends used to say—“Capp. dese yeeie .^ugar figs hah two flayber emm um " Are you there, Fig Raisers? Can what figs you can can this summer, and thase who can’t can, you can’t. Can’t you get the idea. You can’t go wrong. BOLL WEEVIL SITUATION IS ABOUT THE SAME: The boll weevil situation continues about the same as last week, along with hot weather and very little rain in most sections, says County Agent Boylstcn. Cotton fields in five differ ent ccmmunities~of the county were examined again on Monday of this week to check on the amount of damage being done. Hot, dry weather has, no doubt, held the weevil in cheek to a great extent; at the same time much damage may be expected in acme fields, especially with some rains now coming.
