Hold Your Wool Tiu Sales Dov.

Sheepmen, hold your wool until
sales day and preserve the integrity
of your organization.
The wool supply of the world is re-
duced to the very bottom of the wool
bins. Boston is crying for wool.
Liverpool is crying for wool and the
great centers are crying for wool.
This is the year of all years to Sc
cure for you a good price-a price
that will somewhat compensate for
the long years of dearth and famine
in the wool and sheep markets. Make
the buyers pay what your product is
worth. You should enjoy the profits
this year instead of selling early at
low figure and allowing the COM
mission men who do not produce your
clip, to reap the benefit.
Hold your wool and preserve your
organization. Stand by each other 1t
will pay you to do so. The buyers,
the manufacturers, are combined
against you in the markets. If you
secure Justice, you. too, must COM
bine. 1t is your only hope. Don't
sell pound before sales day. Don't
do it.-Canyon City Eagle.

MRS. JOHN B. FIELDER
DIES AT HER HOME,
Estimable Lady Has Passed
Away Here.
SINKS INTO a PEACEFUL REST
After an Illness of Long Duration the
End Comes to One of the City's
Most Beloved and EstimabIe Wo-
men-The Funeral Services.

Mrs. John B Fielder is dead. The
announcement yesterday afternoon
carried sorrow to the hearts of many
who loved her well, for, while prepared
by her long and critical illness for the
dread blow, it was none the less keenIy
felt among all here.
At o'clock yesterday afternoon her
spirit passed from the shadows of
mortality into the sunshine of eternity;
peacefully and calmy, restful close
of we'll spent life.
And hundreds in Americas will drop
a silent tear upon her bier.
Through many weary months she
mad struggled bravely, hoping against
hope that relief might come and her
life be spared to her loved ones. All
that the best surgical skill could render
availed naught, and slowly the tide of
life ebbed until the end came.
Mrs. Fielder was the youngest daugh-
ter of the late s. K. Taylor. a pioneer
citizen of Americus, and all of her long
and useful life was spent here
Her marriage at an early age to Capt.
John B. Fielder was an ideally happy
one, and in their home circle, surroun-
ded by sons and daughters, life held
for them many pleasures rare. And
thus for nearly four decades they walk
ed LIES pathway together.
Besides her devoted husband Mrs,
Fielder is survived by two daughters,
Mrs. Logan williamson of Nashville,
Miss Kate Fielder, and four sons, Thomas
J. Fielder, of Nashville; Taylor Fielder
of Philadelphia, John Fielder Jr. OF
Birmingham, and G. W. Fielder of
Atlanta.
AS some of these cannot arrive until
late this afternoon the funeral will
take place Monday, the hour to be an
nounced later.

SUMTER IS STILL A
LONG WAY IN LEAD.
Big Increase in Tax Values
Shown.
EXCEEDED A QUARTER MILLION
Property Values in All Lines Show
Handsome Increase Over Figures
Made Last Year--In Two Years
Sumter Gains Largely.

Two hundred and seventy Eight
thousand, three hundred and ninety
one dollars! Away over the quarter
million dollar mark Sumter = property
values increase this year as compared
with last year, while for the two years
the gain ia values aggregated three
quarter millions.
The figures were announced yester-
day by Tax Receiver j. P. Raiford, and
the exhibit is most gratifying to those
who insist that Americus and Sumter
are going to the front as never before.
And $278, 391 represent the property
gains made this year alone.
Last year the total property valua-
tions for the county, as returned for
taxation, was S.. 376, $50, while this
year, as shown by the records just
made up yesterday, the valuations of
property aggregate S., 1854, ST.. Thus
the increase for 1905, as shown, is the
handsome sum of $278, 391,
The increase for 1904 and 1905, COL
lectively, is $741, O08, or very nearly
three quarter million dollars in the
two years named,
Tax Receiver Raiford is very proud
of the handsome exhibit thus made and
taxpayers will share this pride with
him. He has done his work we'll and
faithfully, and the result Is very graft.
flying all around.
The total number of polls is 2, 864, q
gain of seventy. In a year We haye
lost three of our 80 lawyers, but we
gained three dentists and one bank
president. There are still twenty doc
tors, but no account is taken here of
their patients.
Sumter is growing. There are 2, $50
acres of land more this year than last,
according to the tax returns. The acre
age returned amounts to 3O2.171.
The value of merchandise returned is
$431, 689, an increase of $181, 900 over
last year. Our mules and horses are
worth $3.50, 500, while our diamonds and
iewelry count for only 500, 541-a de.
crease in these luxuries.
House furniture is returned for taxes
at valuation of $276, 751 and our bug
gies and farm implements at S102, 1913.
All the bicycles in Sumter, collectively,
are worth but $3.50, or $62 less than
they were valued at last year. Our au-
tos are not on the list at all.
Money, notes and accounts total
1901, 1916; and our stocks and bonds
only $3.70O Evidently the same man
owns 'em all, as this is last years fig
ure, too, on this item.
The 302, III acres of farm lands are
valued at 81, 952, 3O6, an increase in
value oyer last year of nearly $67, 900.
City property is valued at 81, 727, 1858,
An increase of $51, 691 since 1904. Bank
are returned at $244, $50, a /
gain of $29, 756 in one year.
Thus, with gain of nearly a quarter
million dollars this year, Sumter is
still marching with the progressive
,ountles of the state, and her tax rate
Will be still further reduced this year.
