wuLIAMSsURG'S TEN ACRES.
Who Can Match Mr. Baxley's Re.
markable Yield?

The following editorial article ap-
peared in The State November II:
We print with pleasure and salts
faction the following letter from Ed
itor Wolfe:
To the Editor of The State
While the honors for big corn
crops are being conferred let it not
be overlooked that Daniel F Baxley
of Vex postoffice, Williamsburg
county, made LOOP 9-ll bushels of
corn on ten acres of land, being an
average yield of 100 bushels, Z 3-l1
quarts to the acre.
One of the men who helped to
measure this corn was Hon B B
Chandler, eX-county Supervisor and
RepreSentative-elect from this coun-
ty,who says that Mr. Baxley undoubt-
ecly made LOOP 3-11 bushels on ten
acres. So far as the writer is in
formed this remarkable yield on ten
acres is unsurpassed in the State; it
is splendid record and speaks vol
umes for the possibilities of Williams
burg's fertile soil.
Out of II contestants in the boys
corn club five produced more than
| 100 bushels on one acre, the highest
yield being 135 bushels.
There is also mems corn club, and
we are expecting some record yields
for the county when the result is
announced the latter part of the
month.
Our people are enthusiastic over
corn-growing and no og-raising. Such
an impetus must bring good results
and we expect great things next
year. Z w WOLFE.
KingStree, November IA.
The achievement of Mr. Baxley
must be regarded as one of the most
valuable demonstrations of reason
able possibilities of South Carolina S
soil and climate made in this notable
year of such demonstrations. 1t is
presumed that the Williamsburg
farmer planted his corn on a strictly
commercial basis - to grow the
greatest quantity at the smallest
cost. He was not after records, but
cheap corn. In such circumstances,
the production of more than one
thousand bushels on ten acres is bet
ter than much greater relative
yield on one acre especially and ex-
pensively nourished.
AS Editor Wolfe says, it speaks
volumes for the possibilities of Will
liamsburg's fertile soil"-and for
South Carolina. Who can match Mr.
Baxley's ten acres.

visit to Oyster Bay was brought to
Beverly recently. Colonel Lyon,
republican boss of Texas, Is repre-
sented as having said that he and
his Texans were ready to do any
thing Colonel Roosevelt might ask,
wit hone exception. That, as the
story ran, was to send Taft dele
cation to the next national conven-
ton.
"'Give yourself no morry, my
dear Cecil, on that score Colonel
Roosevelt is reported to have re-
piled. L am not only disappointed
with the Taft administration; l am
disgusted'"
