RECORD CORN CROP.
Report Shows That Farmers Are
Now Dtversifytng.

That the corn crop OF Sorth Caro-
lima will exceed last seasons record
By a: least 100000 bushels Is the
opinion expressed at the Office Of
Commissioner Watson n columb.a-
The preliminary reports received
show that already 100000 bush
els are TO be obtained from the crop.
Commissioner Watson thinks the TO-
tai yield will be over 20,000.000
bushels.
Last seasons crop was 2s.250.900
bushels. this being an increase o..
100000 bushels over the previous
two years. 1t IS also expected that
the present seasons crop w!lI bring
high market price. In. 1905 the
average price per bushel IN thts State
was 81 cents.
This was higher price than IL any
State except Arizona where the aver
age was $1.os. The average price
for the whole country was SOS cents
per bushel The prices hav- gradu-
ally and substantially increased for
the pas. several years. In 1904.
for the State. the price was 20 cents:
In 1905. the market price was -
cents: in 1906. 73 cents: 1907. IS
cents. 1908. 81 cents
Before the McIver Williamson plan
| was placed before the planters OF this
State and the United States farm
demonstration work was begun tie
yield OF corn was only 17.500.000
bushels. Now the crop is being gen.
orally raised and the exhibits which
have been shown this year are very
gratifying.

would tell the whole inside story Of
the $643.000 theft. when the case
came to court. Mrs. Stewart denied
she had ever received money from

The sudden breaking Of her 81

at present the question that is
exercising the railroad officials Is.
What became Of the $643,0Go which
Warmer admits having stolen?

demands OF blacknailers, but that

It is admitted by railroad officers
that Warmer might have continued
his speculat:ons indefinitely II ae had
not been betrayed by woman. SO
great was his supersors' confidence
In him.

Some Comment on tho Case Tint

A letter from Laurens to The State

In Laurens the general comment was

UNDERLYING this sentiment Is the
fact that In Lau7ens and Laueens
county Dr.. 6issan and his friend.
Avant. are believed TO be guilty OF
foul murder There is absolutely
no sympathy for them up there: the
people believe them guilty Of nur-
der or not guilty. Hence. when both
the verdict OF TIE jury and the sen
tence were known, and when the
bond was reduced from $4,000 to
$500 severe criticism was heard
on all sides. In the Mountville CON-

From the newspaper accounts OF
the Trial and she testimony brought

on account Of the sentence imposed
by Judge Watts. Because the de-
fendants did not 80 on the stand
to tell the world just how this awful

they claimed It to be, the people
in Laurens regard it as fear 0:
