Dairy Shipm emit.

Some ideas of the rapid growth Of
the dairy industry in the County car
be gathered from the statistic of the
Macon express office. A year ago the
shipments of butter were small and nc
cream shipped at all. Now the ship
ments are so gallons of cream, value
$4,000 daily and 500 pounds of butter,
weekly, value between $3.50 and 5000.
This means that in a year the increase
in dairy shipment from Macon has beer
nearly $500 a week or owe 50, 10000 a
year. And the business has really Just
gotten we'll started, A year from now
may easily see the amount doubled,

Mr.. Jim Carpenter, from northwest
NoXubGe, was in town Monday. He
says that while some places in his sec
ton has a better crop than others, that
taking it as a whole it is the best crop
that he has seen since he moved there
more than 20 years ago, and that he
heard a much older man and farmer say
that it is the best crop in 3?years. He
it IS the first time, sail Mr. Carpenter,
that he has seen cotton make all the
way up. AS a usual thing cotton will
make a bottom crop and throw off the
middle crop, and then make a top crop.
But this year. so far, the squares are
not being thrown off, showing that it
is it holding both the bottom and middle
crop.

Walsh Is Defeated.

Boston, Mass, July 13.-Rain robbed
the Sox of the privilege of losing two
games today. There were two sched-
uled today but the first was called off
because of rain and wet grounds. The
only one played resulted in a victory
for the speed boys 5 to 1.
Ed Walsh. to whom official scorers
always used to credit a victory the min
ute he started against the Boston club,
was the gentleman charged with this
afternoons defeat. He deserved it be-
cause the Boston bunch hit all around
the westerners and earned enough tall
lies off him to win.
But the Sox might have scored more
than they did for all that. They had a
great opening in the third inning, and
should have owned three more runs
before soul was out. Mr.. French and
Mr.. Walsh got mixed pom a hit and
run sign and there is just chance that
this slip cost them the victory.

their purpose. When Lazar read his
warrant to his men, placed them under
arrest, the crowd pressed around him,
and immediately began to side In with
the prisoners. They refused to allow
Lazar to take them with him, and ap-
peared in an ugly frame Of mind. Lazar
argued and explained to no purpose.
AS fas as he would make one crowd
understand. another took possession of
the field, and fortunately for the con-
stable. some one called up the police.
Sergeant Frank Barker and Sergeant
William Hughes and officer Ed Shields
responded and after deal of talk sue
