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.

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

One of the mo*t effective way* to

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**
