% r f At a mMtinf of the BoaH of Trus- '•\om of the Barnwell public schools * this week, the entire faculty of the •'•Barnwell high and grammar schools was reelected. Supt. W. W. Carter and Principal W. R. Price were again . placed at the head of the' schools. The •Tomer has been superintendent here .«ince the opening of the fall session in 1927, and Mr. Price has been his .first assistant since the opening of the 1928 term, in addition to his duties as head coach. The grammar school teachers in clude S. B. Marks, of Columbia, prin cipal and teacher of the sixth grade; Miss Louise Cope, of Cope, 1st grade; Miss Grace League, of Clinton second grade; Miss E^lease Ray, of Denmark, . third grade; Miss Louise McCullough, of Greenville, fourth grade, and Miss Rhoda Wade, of Lowrys, fifth grade. The high school teachers are: W. R. Price, of Columbia, principal, ath letic coach and teacher of mathemat ics; Roy E. Hewey, of Haverhill, Mass., assistant coach and instructor of manual training; George R. Evans, of Sandersville, Ga., agriculture; Mrs. Ira Fales, of Barnwell, music; Miss Margaret Free, of Bamberg, history; Miss Margaret Ellis, of Due West, English and French; Miss Mary China Stevenson, of Hartsville, general science; Miss Hazel Smith, of York, home economics; Miss Delma Bur- f gess, of Kmgstree, commercial; Miss Lilie Mae Jones, of Ridgeland, Eng lish. In the past few years the Barnwell high school has added courses in home economics, manual training, commercial and agriculture and now offers a well-balanced, well-rounded high school course. It is hoped that in the near future it will be possible to make arrangements with the local business men to give the student* practical training with their organi zations to tie in with the theoretical knowledge taught in the school. Barnwell County fanners who are participating In the Agricultural Con servation Program are urged by H. G. Boylston, county agent, to plant summer legumes such as soybeans, cowpeaa, or velvet beans as early as possible in order to qualify for full AAA payments and to have an ade quate seed supply for 1938. In addition to the acreage normally planted to soil-conserving*crops, it is necessary that each farmer plant as many acres to soil-conserving crops as he derives from soil-depleting crops. For example, a fanner with a 100-acre cotton base diverts 35 acres to soil-conserving crops. If this farmer normally plants 15 acres to soil-conserving crops he must have a total of 60 ceres of soil-conserving crops in order to qualify for full diver sion payments. Many farmers have had difficulty in procuring sufficient legume seed this season because of the scarcity of some varieties and the lack of cash at planting time. One of the best meth ods of avoiding these difficulties in Farmors can harvest ths —d or cut tbs bay from Isgumss without affect ing their diversion payments. If they choose to plow under the legume crops in order to qualify for a soil- building payment, they still may har- vest the seed before turning, the crop under _v - * Thus, regardless of what a farmer may decide to do with his legumes, he can get seed from those crops without in sny way interfering with his full participation in the program. This home-grown seed will then be available for planting next year. ef the if* fellow both sa public officials and private citizens, rendering unselfish service to their county and State; and WHDRCAS, They were ever-ready to place public good ahead of private gain, their creed being “the greatest good to the greatest number”; and WHEREAS, As members of the Couity Bd. of Equalization they gave unstintingly of their time to the af fairs of Barnwell County, Mr. Roun tree having served for 40 years, and Mr. Willis 17 years on the County Board of Equalization. atfl f Mhhfirlu the R R W.

It gave the whole of District “I" a great shock when it was announced that the Supply Co. at Fort Moultrie would be disbanded. This company | was the first camp to be organized in the district and was thought by all to be permanent. The boys Vho made up the company were transferred to other camps in different parts of the State. A. L. Edwards, former educational advisor at the Supply Co., spent 3 days in camp this week. Mr. Edwards has done a great deal in developing wood-shops in the camps. Captain Hindman, sub-district in spector, paid this camp a short visit last Tuesday. Mr. Bauer, of the State forestry of fice was also in camp on the same date. * ths district sducarto—I iysrs.

Bamberg, May 9.—Several meetings have been called by County Agent W. H. Craven inviting mayors, truck buyers and county agents from the various truck mSrkets in Bamberg, Barnwell, Colleton and Orangeburg Counties for the purpose of obtaining some definite action which will to some extent eliminate the marketing of the large percentage of cull cucum bers and cantaloupes that is normally shipped out of the trucking areas. Splendid co-operation has been re ceived from both mayors and buyers of the various cucumber and canta loupe towns, also from county agents of the adjoining counties. At a recent meeting held at Den mark a committee was appointed to contact the city attorneys of Bamberg for the purpose of drawing up a uni form ordinance requiring buyers of cucumbers and cantaloupes in the va rious towns in the cucumber and eai t*loupe area to pay an annual lkern** This uniform ordinance will he pre- si ail the main c m the 'mm I naifi WITH YOUR OWN INITIAI.
