One of the men responsible for the new develop ments is T. L. Senn, associate professor of horticulture at dam son. Mr. Senn is a son of Mrs. George W. Senn, formerly of New berry. Both methods of curing have been set up as a demonstration on a farm near Ridge Springs, and they both are creating a great amount of interest among aromat ic tobacco growers in the Ridge Springs area. * One of the new curing methods deals with barn construction and consists of using an ordinary grain storage bin, a rear end from an old model automobile which has the drive shaft still attached, a few pieces of pipe, a Idrge round Air Force Tries To Induce Vets The United States Air Force wheel and a few other odds and I has announced anew reenlistment ends. The auto rear-end is set up in the grain bin so that the drive shaft is in a vertical position in the middle of the bin. Four inch pipe is welded onto a large wheel and racks of tobacco can be hung vertically from this wheel. The wheel makes a complete turn about every minute passing over time of separation and be concur a concentration of heat and ozone provided by two 2,000 watt fin- type electric heaters. This con stant movement of tobacco causes a good circulation of air within the barn. Mr. Senn picked, up the idea of using a round curing bam on a recent trip to the flue cured to bacco producing area of North Carolina. He and the three other engineers, M. C. McKenzie, E. B. Rogers and W. A. Jones, worked out the details and adapted the idea to the curing of aromatic tobacco. RE-ENACTS FLIGHT . . .

(Continued from page 1) than $48,000 in debt. The budget adopted iby council last year for the current operat ing year showed a $58,000 deficit. According to 'Mr. Blackwell, It is “presently a touch and go” situa tion, and money will probably have to be borrowed to complete the city’s fiscal year, which ends September 30th. The only reason the city has been able to stay .in the black thus far, said Mr. Black- well, is that some things authoriz ed by council to be done during the year haven’t been done. One of the major items, amounting to between $15,000 and $20,000 is the extension of the water system. This amount will be included in the revenue bonds to be sold this month. Other things authorized, which have not been done, include a parking shed for the city ve hicles, which are now standing out in the weather; new equip ment needed for the operation of various departments in the city; electrical extensions, street light ing. “All of the things in the bud get are goiiig to have to be done sooner or later,” said Mr. Black- well. “They can’t be put off for ever.” The budget adopted by council amounted to $676,067.77. Estimat ed revenue is $627/763.0 , 6. In adopting new water rates, council increased the minimum bill in the city from $1.00 to $1.50 per month; outside "the city lim its from $1.25 to $2.00 per month with a 33 1/3 percent added to the regular rates. Water meter service and connection charges have also been increased. The late for metered water has been upped as follows: First 500 cubic feet from 20c to 30c per hundred; next 1000 cu. ft. from 18c to 24c per hundred; next 2000 cu. ft. from 15c to 20c per hundred; next 6000 cu. ft. from 12c to 16c per hundred; ex cess of 9500 cu. ft. from 11c to 15c per hundred. This increase in water rate was made mandatory in order that bonds may he sold to go forward with the proposed improvement of Newberry’s water supply, with a pumping station on the Saluda River. It has been estimated by the Engineers that the project will cost $572,000. Council was advis ed that bids for construction of proposed additional water supply and water works additions would be received at city hall on August 24 at 3:00 p. m. Council set November 8, 1955 as the date for the general elec tion of a mayor and city council- men. The polls will be open from 8:00 a. m. until 4:00 p. m., and members of .the City Democratic Committee were appointed to han dle the general election for the city. Other items handled by council: Heard a letter from the State Highway Department advising that funds amounting to $3,000 were still available to pave a side walk on Adelaide street as soon as rights-of-way are obtained; Heard a report that approxi mately 450 private driveways in the town were unpaved, and that estimated average coats of paving were, concrete $37.50; three inch asphalt $20.00; surface treatment, $12.50. No action was taken on this, except that the public was advised that the city would con tinue to pave driveways sharing half the expense with the property owner; Passed a motion to install nec essary concrete drainage pipe south of Floyd street between Vin cent and Drayton streets at an es timated cost of $1,000; Heard a report from the secre tary of the City Democratic Exe cutive committee giving the names of the official nominees of the Democratic party for the offices of Mayor and members of city council. program with special inducements according to Sergeant Rogers, lo cal Air Force recruiter. Under the new plan, former airmen who are qualified and technically trained in specified specialities may now enlist in their permanent grade held fit the rently promoted to any temporal y grade held at the time, provided they enlist within six months from the date of their separation. The date of grade will serve as the date of enlistment under this plan. Formerly, airmen wore re quired to reenlist within 90 days. At the present (time there are 108 Air Force specialties included in the list of shortages now ex isting in the United States Air Force.

Soil Conservation Is Now . Observing 20th Birthday Soil Conservation Service is i^ow 20 years old; established in April 1935. The principal duty of its 11,740 permanent employees is to assist farmers and ranchers with their soil and water con servation problems. It does this through its conservation planning technicians and other specialists. SCS works chiefly through soil proved for planning assistance by SCS. In addition, SCS is carrying on operations in 60 pilot water sheds to tost and prove small- watershed protection methods. SCS is also responsible for as sisting in the national. State and county Agricultural Conservation program of the department. It contributes mainly to this program by providing needed technical as- conservation districts.

Wicker, died last Sunday night at Newberry County Memorial Hospital following a long illness. Mrs. Wicker was born in New berry County, a daughter of the late John and Elma Thompson Bargle and had made her hotne near Pomaria. She was a mem ber of St. Matthew’s i Lutheran Church. Surviving are two sons, Lake farmers and ranchers. They are organized under State enabling laws and are units of State gov ernments. Upon request, they ob tain technical assistance from the SCS in carrying out local conser vation programs. “As of May 31 this year, the Service was providing assistance to 2,660 soil conservation districts in the 48 states, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, Hawaii, and Alaska. Flood control and watershed and river investigation activities of the Department also are SCS Jobe. This involves the planning and applying of floods damage preven tion measures and practices in 11 major watersheds, and helping local organizations in small wi sheds. A total of 327 small shed applications have ' been, re ceived of which 68 have been ap ing provisions of AGP. Even though rainfall has been reasonably plentiful this season, farmers have not forgotten the past several years of drought and low yields due to lack of water. During the first half of 1955 farm ers cooperating with soil conser vation districts in Soil Conserva tion Service Area II of South* Car olina built 346 farm ponds. Since January 1, 194*8 farmers cooperat ing with these eight soil conser vation districts have built 2334 ponds. Districts in this area are Spartanburg, Cherokee, Union, Newberry, Catawba (York county) Lancaster, Chester, and FnirfiehL During the first half of 1955 there were more than half as many ponds built as during 1954. This means the pace hasn’t slackened even though rainfall has been bet ter than recent former years. Davis, Mrs. Gloria Parks, Mrs. Florence Hamm, James I. Hamm, Meredith Harmon, Jas. N.

(Continued from page 1) is 64 cents a day, or $23.38 a year. The Federal Bureau of Prisons / reports the cost of imprisonment at $3.56 a day of $1,299.40 per in mate per year. Records are kept of the earning power of probationers and parol ees, and it has been found that since the creation of the Proba tion, Parole and Pardon Board in 1941, probationers have earned $23,672,457.44. Parolees have earn ed $3,169,914.26, a total of $26,842,- 371.70. This amount would have been lost to the business channels of the State since this money was paid out for taxes, living costs of the families involved, etc. With out this money being earned by those under supervision, the state would have been called upon to provide the necessities of life to the families of violators of the law through welfare programs. From July 1, 1953 to June 30, 1954, (three prisoners from New berry County were released on parole; 34 are serving sentences in penal institutions, and 369 per sons were on probation during the period.
