The effort of the Sumter Cream- !
ery Company to promote the dairy- j
financing the purchase of dairy;
ing .industry in Sumter county by i
cows for farmers who htffe the j
land and feed but lack cash capital1
to purchase cows, should receive ?
the support and cooperation of all
the business men and banks. There
is a tremendous crop of peavine j
hay and velvet beans in the coun- j
ty this year and it should all be j
used at home. Every ton that is j
shipped out of the county will be a j
loss. Sumter county needs a suf-i
ffcient number of dairy cows to i
turn the peavine hay and velvet j
beans into butter. The whole!
community should get in behind j
the creamery proposition and give!
it the support essential to its de- j
yelopment and success. The pres- j
ept moment is the time the dairy- i
ing industry needs financial sup-!
pport and cooperation, and $109.-1
000 invested in good cows now will J
do more for. the restoration otj
prosperity than it would in any'!
other, way. '

CAMDEN ROAD
TO COLUMBIA!
i _i \ :;' \ ? ?
(Camden Chronicle),
j A representative number of
i members of the Chamber of Com
jmeree met in the offices of the -
j chamber Monday morning to dis
icuss the proposed building of a hard
! surface roadway to connect with
j the road soon to be under con
j truction from the Richland county ?
j line to Columbia.
j Members of the newly elected
{delegation in the general assembly
! were present and the matter was
I favorably discussed. All seem to
, be in favor of the hard surfaced ?
road, but the main question was
j how the money was to be raised,
lit is estimated that the project will
icost around $325,000.00 and it is
' said that the United States gov
ernment will give $150,000.00 of !
; this yum. It is thought the mon
ey can be raised from the toll J
fares over the Wateree bridge at jj
j Camden.
; ft is a well known fact that then
jsand clay or top soil roads will not!
:stand up under heavy and con-ij
? tinuous traffic, as is evidenced byJ|
the condition of the roads from j
.hero to Columbia at present. Cam-;;
i den being the gateway to the south H
from the entire Atlantic coast, we :
[hope this important road will be \
constructed, else much of the travel i
through C?mden will be lost when i
: the bridge over the Wateree in f
:Snmter county is opened r.p. Messrs. [

UNUSUAL
WEATHER
CONDITIONS
Entire Country Suffering
From 111 Effects of Long
Drought
Washington, Oct. 4 (By the As
sociated Press).?The weather ele
ments just arn't acting right. That
is the only explanation the United
States weather bureau c tn make
Sop the protracted drought, "which
grips a great portion of the eo.-n
ti*y." Meteorologically sptvkin^ the
winds and the barometric pressures
are acting contrary to nature. The
air is sluggish and thert is little
movement, in high or low strata,
consequently, the moisture bearing
air can nor journey over the coun
try. ?
With the exceptions of Califor
nia and the northern Pacific coast
Florida and the East Gulf coast,
there have been few areas where
any rain to speak of has fallen for
four or five weeks. There is a "low"
extending from Washington, P- C,
to south of Knoxville, Tenn.. which
is hardly moving and which forms
a barrier to moisture bearing winds.
When that moves away, says the
weather bureau, there will be
some chance of a change, for the
better.
Although' the present dry spell
is making somewhat a record for
territory covered and length of
time, agriculturalists declare it
has been marked by an- exceedingly
small amount of crop damage. The
preceding warm weeks rapidly ma
tured corn and other crops, cotton
and truck stuff and the harvest,
generally is, practically over. Some
little damage may result to late
corn, it is said, by agriculture de
partment officials but this probab
ly will not be extensive. The main
trouble from the farmers' point of
view is that sowing of winter wheat
is being retarded by inability to
get the ground in condition.
Cotton in Texas and Oklahoma
was slightly damaged several
weeks ago in the early stages of the
dry spell. Truckers in the south
have been saved from loss by recent
showers from the Gulf of Mexico
but most late truckers' crops in
the northern section .have reached
the stage where dry weather does
little damage.
While farmers have not bothered
greatly over crop damages, great
loss has been done by forest fires in
driest sections and grave fears have:
been expressed in this country and
Canada for inhabitants of forested
areas.
In northern Ontario 5,000 per
sons have b?en rendered homeless,
an undetermined number are fear
ed to have perished, three towns
have been wiped out and at least
four others partially destroyed.
Tentative estimates of- the property
loss mounts into millions. With
no prospect of rain held out by
forecasters it is said the forest fires
will have to burn themselves out.
- In northern-Minnesota an area
of about 100 square miles is burn
ing in many places, over 100 fires
having been reported. Several
towns have been reported destroy
ed- and others damaged by the en
croaching fire3;
. Because of. the danger of fires,
Governor Baxter of Elaine has or
dered the hunting season closed,
and persons are prohibited from
carrying firearms into the woods.
At Penobscot bay tests of a new
destroyer of the United States navy
were abandoned because smoke
from the fires obscured the course.
The drying of streams and res
ervoirs in many sections of coun
try has been reported. Wells have
failed and farmers and small town
residents were forced to haul water
long distances. At Pittsburgh,
where the drought is in its 25th
day. only emergency supplies of
water are reported to remain in
the western sections of the state.
At Cumberland, Md., it is reported
that wells have gone dry, which
have not been known to cease run
ning for 60 years. The Potomac

Weather bureau officials ean see
no relief from drought and also I
from the general attending high I
temperatures in any section of . the j
country except where local show- j
ers are reported. From nine cities j
throughout the Middle West have j
come reports of temperatures high

Results Obtained by
Cotton Farmer Indicate
That It is. Possible
Williston. Oct. 5.?J. D. Prothrp
'of Aiken county, who owns the
Heyward Stansell place, one of the
finest farms in this part of the
state, is proving that cotton can be
grown despite the .boll weevil. He
has. 150 acres-. planted- to cotton
this year and has picked 65.jbales
and had not a severe hail storm
swept a part of the farm, he wouu
have made 100 to 125 bales... In?
part of the place not visited
the hail storm, a thorough test
poisoning was made. On ten
the syrup.-method, was used- ai
six bales was niade. On an ad
joining ten. acres, under-.the
condition of land and - work,
using two application's of dusting |?
arsenate in addition, to the two ap
plications of syrup used oh the
other tract, nine-bales were made'.
This cotton' is well, fruited to> t\
top though the top crop was
destroyed by the weevil, in soi
bolls there only being one to tx
locks. The cost of the poisoning
these tracts was- 67 cents per ac|
for the syrup method and $2.17
acre for the syrup and dust
Arthur R. Still, superintendent-3f
this farm, is wide awake in .evei
way. Through good managemei
the cost of this farm was kept to'
minimum and it is understood ?
.50 bales will easily carry ihjst ex
penses for this year, and under noC
m?i conditions, eyen with the boil
weevil, this place should make lw)
to 150 bales of cotton. Mr. Prpthnp
has a still larger place in Aiken
county near Montmorenci where
lives, on which he-has already
ed 200 hales of cotton.
