CHEERING THOUSANDS
 GREET THE ATHLETICS
Worlds Champion Base Ball Club Given a Tremendous Ovation on
 Its Return Home-Cele-
 brate at Shbe Park.

Philadelphia, Oct 26.-,Shrieking themselves hoarse in praise of the Athletics cheering thousands of men, women and children greeted the worlds champion baseball players when they stepped from the special train which bore them back to Phila- delphia from Chicago For an hour the crowd had ragged around Broad street station.
 Broad street from the city hall to the Bellevue Stratford was so throng- ed with people and automobiles that there was only narrow lane for the triumphal players to pass through.
 Thousands of people fought to get positions near the entrance to the Bellevue Stratford and shouted the name of each player as he descended from his motor car. These in the ranks even tried to pick up the cham pions and carry them into the hotel on their shoulders. The shouting for Mack, Coombs and Shibe were par ticularly loud.
 After the dinner at the hotel the players went to theatre and later went to Shibe park and took part in the celebration held there.

he has produced some wonderful re- suits this last season with the same variety of "eoobers." To tell the truth he did not give the peanuts a fair chance. for in planting the seed they were dropped only about IS inches apart when they should have been 36 inches or even 4S inches each way. The jumbo is a wonderful spreader. and the writer intends to try couple of acres or more next year on differ ent plan from the one he followed this year. In this connection your correspondent would like to learn some information regarding the best way to cure peanuts.
 While the loss of our creamery will be keenly felt by the progressive citi- zens of the community they will be pleased to learn that another indus trial establishment will soon be in op- eration that will probably be more beneficial in a general way than a creamery. R. Golf is making arrang- ments to put in an up-to-date cotton gin with a combination of sawmill, eristmilI and shingle factory. The cotton gin at this place has not been opened this year and consequently the cotton grown in the community has been hauled to other towns thus caus- ing the loss of a large volume of busi- ness. The new enterprise will be operated under the management of James W. Neal, an experienced mill man, and the public will therefore know just what to depend upon.
