pose to share out anyone in the

who have been inadvertently
overlooked they can secure
cards by sending to the Armory.

New Remedy for Cut Worms.
As the cut worms will have to
be looked after, we here give a
new remedy against its ravages.
We know nothing of its worth,
but give it as we found it. It
costs very little, and deserves a
trial: “Take thirty pounds bran,
two pints molasses, one pound
paris green, put the molasses in
to six quarts of hot water; add
the bran and paris green, mixing
thoroughly until the whole is
tinged with green. Place one
spoonful of this near the plants
and wherever the worms are,
not getting too near the stalk.
If a new lot of worms hatch, the
dose will have to be repeated
The worms will leave the plants
for the mixture every time. The
bran and molases tempts them,
and the paris green does the kill
ing.”
"Woodmen of the World,"
As already mentioned in these
columns, on Wednesday night,
May 16, a Camp of the “Wood
men of the World” was organ
ized with nineteen members.
“Woodcraft” is a pure, fratern
al and beneficial Order, and has
now extended to all parts of
this country and Canada, its
percentage of growth being
greater than that of any similar
organLation. Protection in the
form of life insurance is afforded
its members at almost actual
cost. It has numerous features
unique to this Order, and alto
gether it appeals to all classes
of men. No death claim has ev
er been contested or compromis
ed; hence its members may feel
secure.
“Darlington OakCamp” starts
out with very fine material, and
under very flattering circum
stances, and we believe it will
soon double and then quadruple
its membership. The officers of
the new Camp are as follows:
Consul, A. H. Hayden, Adviser,
G. O. Mertz, Banker, L. E. Wil
liamson, Clerk, J. W. Evans,
Escort, J.W. Biggs, Watchman,
W. A. Blizzard, Sentry, B. O.
Bristow, Managers, A. T. Baird,
C. W. Milling, and J. E. Nor
ment, Physician, A. H, Hayden.
M. D. With such men at the
head of it, we predict a great
future for the Camp, and expect
to note large accessions of mem
bers at every meeting.
Tobacco Increase in barlington Coun
ty.
From 5,000 to 5,000,000pounds
in six years! The above figures
sound like fiction, but they are
true, nevertheless. Six years
ago, one farmer tried as an ex
periment four acres in tobacco
in Darlington County, making
about 5,000 pounds. This first
effort was made intelligently,
resulting in a type of sobacco of
such desirable quality and such
marketable value, thit other
farmers were induced to try the
new crop. The success has been
such that now (after six years)
not less than five hundred good
men are planting the weed, and
with favorable seasons, no less
than 5,000,000 pounds of the
golden leaf will be harvested.
The Darlington market has kept
pace with the increase of the
tobacco, always in the lead of
other markets. Two new mam
moth warehouses and quite a
number of leaf factories are now
in process of cotstruction, par
ties having availed themselves
of the liberal offer of Darlug-
ton to give lots to those desirous
of building tobacco houses.
These buildings will be ready
in time to handle the growing
crop. Buyers who do not care
to build can rent good houses,
built for leaf factories, with the
latest improvements, at reason
able rental. Those wishing to
deal in bright tobacco cannot do
better than to locate at Darling
ton. The daily sales hero con
sist of extra fine wrappers, cut
ters, strips and smokers; the
latter are of a very fine type.
One small smoking tobacco fac
tory commenced operating about
five months ago as a private en
terprise. The business men of
Darlington, seeing the possibi
lities in the business, met last
week, co operated with the for
mer proprietor, and formed a
stock company with $10,000
capital, thus assuring its per
manent establishment and suc
cess. Darlington tobacco makes
a fine smoke; samples have been
sent to Germany, and it is pro
nounced the finest ever seen
there. Darlington offers the
finest opening for a cigarette
factory in the South, cheap
land, cheap labor, delightful
climete, delightful people and
plenty of bright tobacco. There
is big money in it for the first
who makes the venture. The
enterprising man who seizes
this opportunity, and comes in
on the ground floor, will there •
by have a monopoly in estab
lishing his brands, will grow up
with the business, and reap sure
rewards.

The Baptist Church that was
burned at Bishopville a few

yet.

lost by fire some time ago at
Darlington.

hope that he will soon recover
his strength.
Mr. F. A. Dowling, Sr., has
about completed a dining room
department to his dwelling,
which adds very much to the
convenience of the building as
well as to its looks.
The extended cool weather is
badly against farmers. Stands
of corn and cotton were at one
time very satisfactory. Cotton
has died out so that some have
had to replant, while the “bud
worm is damaging corn.
The new Baptist church, just
unpleted at BTorence, is quite
an impossing structure. It is
one of the finest church edifices
in the eastern portion of the
State.
School Commissioner Smith,
of Florence county, reports the
schools of his county in a flour
