sTALLIONS IN A DUEL.

Two blooded stsllions fought a duel
to death Yesterday on the farm OF Duvsi
Radiord, eighteen miles from Lynch
burg. The stations engaged 10 the
struggle we're GlsnnwoOd, noted anl'
NAL bv St. Leonard, we'll known horse,
which was imported BY James H. heene'
and Champion, another well-known aul'
NAL. Champion is much heavier than
his adversary, and this weight enabled
him to bes, and finally kill GlennWood.
The duel took place in a field on the
farm. One Of the stallion broke from
his stall and charged upon the other
which was grazing in the field. The Two
horse started the battle with roar.
They bit, kicked, and paved each other
until both we're badly cut. Finally
Champion made q dash for bis adversary
and grabbed the throat Of Giennwood
between his teeth. With bulldog
teuacity the animal held on, until the
noble beast fell dead sirsuged to death.
The fight Was spectacular one and ex-
cited the entire neighbothood.

Arid Farm Potatoes.

Alonzo Higbse dropped into the
Record office Wednesday aud present
ed the editor with nice mess OF
beautiful potatoes which he had raised |
without water.
Mr.. Higboe stated that last year he
had raised crop of potatoes upon
certain piece OF e1ound on bis farm
west of town and this fpritg pl0wod
tho piece With the intention OF seed
log II 60 something else. He cav that
II was already seeded with potatoes
from last years. crop aud concluded
TO let II 40 to see what 1t would pro-
duce. Consequently he narrowed aud
levelled off the land and let it so.
What was his surprise To notice that
a beautiful crop began to grow and
tlnally matured into some OF the best
POTATOES that has aver been raised In
this country. What is more remark
able, there has not been so much rs
drop OF water fall on the land since
IL was plowed and there are some very
large potatoes grown. Those that MIR.
Higbee presented to the editor weigh
on an average OF Il pound aud a half
each, and are OF hard and even
formation, which gives them good
keeping qualities, They are good
cookers aud have an excelispt flavor.
This only proves the contention
the Record has held forth for so long
that crops OF any kind natural to this
climate can te produced without
water and with less than half the la
Dor engendered by irrigation.
Mr. Hlghee has also patch OF arid
land corn estimated at 10 acres tha
will yield better aversse than corr
that has been irrigated, and it Wal
planted In new land, no other woIi
or care beirg given To 1t than 20 plan
the seed.
Those who sre interested in thii
project OF arid farming should e
down TO the Higbee farm and see fol
themselves, aud We venture TO sa!
that from that time on less irrigatiul
will DO done aud more arid farming.

THE COTTON MARKET.

Cotton continues to hover
around the 143 cent mark and
the old timers are kept guessing
as to the next move. The season
has been very warm and UNI
usually favorable for the gather
ing of the crop. Eight million
bales Of the crop have already
been mrrketed, an unprecedent-
ed per cent of the whole.
This cotton has been largely
taken by foreign spinners who
first realized the true condition
of the crop. The crop now can
safely be placed around ten mil
lion bales and it is evident that a
wild scramble will be the result
when the remaining two million
bales are marketed. The question
of the price remains in the hands
of the farmer first and after
wards with the spectators. A
corner seems inevitable and the
future alone can determine the
maximum price.

PRICE OF MEAT.

The present condition OF tt e
meat market is very unfavorab bic
to the man who keeps his smoke
house in the West. The poorest
quality of pork is being sold
around Is cents wholesale and
hams and breakfast bacon have
about reached prohibitive fig
ures. At no time within the
past fifteen years have such high
prices prevailed.
There are at this time 20 per
cent. fewer hogs to be marketed
than a year ago and the supply
ofmeat alreadyslaughtered isfar
short of previous seasons. With
such conditions prevailing the
meat supply will be a serious

Why not suspend foot ball I'm
til the fatality features of the
rules are eliminated? With the
death of young Christian, mem
per of the foot ball team of the
University of Virginia, who was
killed in the game with George
town College Saturday, the
eleventh victim is added to the
list of fatalities this season. The
number of serious injuries re-
ported since the opening of the
season are more than 100, and OF
this number it would be better
for several OF the victims to die
than remain i'll their present con
dition. One life is worth more
than all the foot ball games that
have ever been or ever will be
played. Unless the fatal fea-
lures can be eliminated, it will
become the duty of the heads OF
the colleges to disband their
teams and call the game off.

The Booster Number of the
Lexington Advertiser issued last
week does great credit to that
excellent Journal as we'll as the
business interests of Lexington.
The paper consists of 48 pages
and deals with the history of the
town, Holmes county and the
progressive citizens Of the
county. Judging from the num-
Der of interests represented,
there is not a business in the en-
tire place that is not advertised.
A concerted effort of this char
acter will always bring practical

Ex-Sheriff, Ship of Chatta-

ants appeared before the Su
preme Court of the United States
at Washington Monday and re-
ceived the sentence of the court,
having previously been found
guilty of contempt in disregard
ing the mandates of the court.
The contempt arising in the fail
ure of the sheriff, his deputies
and jaiIor to prevent the lynch.
ing of Ed Johnson, a negro, by g
mob. The case is the first one
of it's kind and the sheriff and
his co-defendants have the sym
patty of every one in their ur.-
fortunate predicament. Such
cases frequently occur in the
South and it is beyond the power
Of the officers to prevent most OF
them. President Taft will be
petitioned to pardon the un-
fortunate men.
