1t was the editors pleasure to make
a business visit to the hustling town
of Chaplin last Thursday. We found
great many farmers there selling
cotton, the price on that day being
1910. 1t is really surprising to see
how far the farmers haul cotton to
this growing little town. Most Of the
farmers of the Fork are selling cotton
at present prices.
We found a great deal Of sentiment
in favor of bridge at Amick's ferry.
This would prove beneficial to Chaplin
and the other towns of the Fork and
to Batesburg and Leesyille on this
side of the river. We hope to see this
bridge built at no distant day.
The merchants at Chaplin have un-
usually large stocks of merchandise
and all of them are doing a good
business The Bank of Chapin, with
j. S. Wessinger, president and j. F.
Honeycutt, cashier, is growing every
day and is filling want long felt in
that community.

The Lexington County Fair will be
larger and better than ever this year,
if we are to judge by the interest al

be above the average goes without
saying; for our people bave never
been more prosperous than now. All
of the crops will practically be gath.
y gfea by the time the fair opens and
IKE farmers will not have anything to
keep them at home.
Secretary George has made arrange
ments for the best line Of attractions
ever seen at the county fair ard there

Overweights.

From American Medicine
The excessive mortality OF over
weights has been published by life in
surance statisticians, and the phenom-
menon must be considered in foot ball
discussions. II is now a proved fact
that the men who are barred from the
game are the ones who live the long :
est. and though mere length Of life
is no criterion Of its usefulness. yet 1t
is q fair assumption that the longest
lived are the most vigorous and, there
fore. the best brain workers.
The colleges are then spending the
most money on the students who will
give the least returns. Every now and
then some ingenious fellow publishes
statistics showing that students able
to take part in sports outlive those
too defective to take any part at all,
as though that needed numerical proof.
The new statistics show that the
healthy underweights excluded from
foot ball are filter for survival in
America than the overweights of the
teams.

CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, March 15.-Early trading in

Considerable selling by pit traders who
flooding the market with selling orders
at the start. Opening prices were from

reports were received but rain forecast
for the dry fields of Kansas gave the
bears encouragement. In the first hour
fluctuations were not large. and the flu
lures generally kept close to the bottom.
May fell away from LAS to 1.13as, the
more distant deliveries taking similar
course. Opening figures for the May de-
livery were Is to sc off, at Las to 1.137s.
Considerable selling by pit traders who
were long on corn bore down on prices

at tho orening, which developed into
still further weakness in the first hour.
May prices dropping from 6JA to 643s. the
more distant options sinking with them.
&c down. with May shade to NC off,
at 65b to 651sa65A.
AS in the other grains. selling was the
principal feature of the oats pit through
the first hour. and prices which started
easy dropped fractionally. May went
down from 46 to 451a. At the outset
May sold unchanged to &c up at 46 to
ass.
Prices in the provisions pit Were firm
at the opening, varying from unchanged
to sc up. Offerings which more than met
the demand took the edge of the market
in the first hour, and May pork, the
leading product, dropped from 1870 to
$500. Opening prices for the May prod
ucts were: Pork. 1920. lard, 14.25, and
