INSIST BRYAN Will

Representative Says NGbfaS.
kan Cannot Be Ignored.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Democratic
senators and representatives who at
tended the Jackson day banquet in
Baltimore last night were discussing
with usual interest today the signifi-
cance of a warning note which came
from former Representative Theo-
dore Bell, of California, recognized as
the representative of William Jen-
nings Bryan. Mr. Bell did not at
tempt to start a Bryan boom, in fact
he eliminated the Nebraskan from fur
tber consideration as democratic nom
inee either in 1912 or any succeeding
presidential year.
"Fate undoubtedly has decreed,' he
said. "That Mr. Bryan shall not be
nominated a fourth time and that ht
shall never be elected president o
the United States"
But Mr.. Bell warned his hearers
that if they were seeking a harmony
which might bring about further dem
ocratic success, they must not contin
ue a policy which omitted Mr, Bryal
from consideration as leader in tn
marty councils. Mr.. Bell declared tina
the affections of millions still weE
centered on Mr.. Bryan and that hi
views must be given the most seriou
consideration.

SUMTER HAS
new VARIETY
OF COTTON
Said to Be Worth Twenty
Cents a Pound.
Mr.. S. A. Rogers Produces New
Variety That Yields Heavy in Lint
Of along StapIe.--Wlll Exhibit at
County Fair.

Mr.. S. A. Rogers, of near Sumter,
is an example of what Sumter coun-
" progressive farmer can do in the
way of Improvement of plants and es-
pecia,Iy of the great staple crop OF the
South
For a number of years Mr.. Rogers
has been working to improve the va
riety of cotton used by him on his
plantation.
Undeterred by failure, he has per-
sistently sought season after season by
careful seed selection and other meth
ods open to the farmer of intelligence
and ingenuity, to bring his cotton up
to a standard surprising anything not
only in the county but anything with
which he was acquainted elsewhere.
AS result of his efforts he has sue
ceeded in bringing his cotton up to a
high state of prolifcness and percent
age of lint.
AS a result of his efforts in this di-
rection he has succeeded it is stated,
in producing cotton that is worth six
or seven cents a pound more than the
ordinary varieties, the new variety
bringing from 20 to q IL cents a
pound.
1t was, in a sense, to Mr. Rogers
sorrow that he ascertained the much
higher value of his crop of the new
variety. The fact was not brought
home to him until after he had sold
fifteen bales at the reglar price, real
ly entailing a loss of $500 when com
pared with what it might have been
sold for.
Mr.. Rogers is preparing to plant as
extensively as conditions will per-
nit of his new variety the coming sea
son and the entire county will watch
the results with more than ordinary
interest. Arrangements will be made
to secure an exhibit from Mr.. Rogers
at the Sumter County Fair, in order
that the planters generally may see
and study the results of his expert
ments

GREAT SIGN
At EACH Of
THE DEPOTS
May Be Erected By the
Board Of Trade.
Would Impress Salient Facts About
Sumter County and AmeFiCuS on
the Travelling Public To Pass On
Matter At Next Meeting.

The suggestion has been made, Il
appears to be an exceptionally good
one, and it will be considered and
passed on by the Board of Trade at
it smeeeting on next Tuesday night,
that two great sign boards be erected
by that organization, one at each of
the railway depots, containing appro-
pirate matter advertising Americus
and Sumter county
The idea is to have the boards not
less than thirty feet long each, and
probably ten feet in depth, so that
the lettering on them may be large
and easily read b ytravelers.
On each board would be given sa-
lient facts concerning the city and
county, facts that will impress the
traveller reading them, and perhaps
lead him to make further inquiries
which will be answered through the
Board of Trade.
Remembering the large number of
people who pass through the city ey-
cry day on the Central and Seaboard
it is apparent that such an advertise
ment would reach a veritable host.
1t is believed that no difficulty
would be secured in securing from
each of the roads the right to erect a
board on it's right of way The work
would be done in a neat manner and
the boards made sufficiently strong to
resist anything except a West Indian
cyclone.
The suggestion appears to meet
with a favorable reception whenever
it is mentioned and it is quite proba-
Bile that the Board of Trade will en-
dorse it next Tuesday night and order
the boards erected.

This year Sumter county is eleventh

Generally Sumter ranks much high

and its production fell off. AS result
it went down in the scale somewhat.
Under normal weather conditions,
though, it will shoot up, again, well

ENORMOUS CROP
IS PROMISED
SUMTER
II Seasons Are PrOpitiOUS
This Year.
Acreage in Oats as Large, if Not
Larger Than Last Year, When the
Yield in Sumter County Exceeded
By Far Any Previous Year.

The most enormous oat crop evel
produced in Sumter, the banner grain
county of Georgia, seems assured this
season, provided weather conditions
during the next ninety days continue
favorable. The crop is now in fine
condition and great results seem GER
| tain.
Sumter county farmers produced
more than a quarter millionbushels Of
oats last year, thus surprising any
Georgia county.
1t was the banner oat crop year
in history, and the yield thus secur-
ed put Sumter at the forefront IN
oats, as we'll as in corn, both these
grain crops being enormous.
The magnificent fields of waving
grain were the admiration of thous-
ands of passers-by on train or auto.
Harvesting machinery of the most inn
proved type was employed in saving

miles to see the engines and binders
at work.
Many of the big fields reminded one
CT the prairie grain fields in the great
Northwest
And the scenes of last summer are
to be repeated in May next, and upon
a larger scale, as the acreage plant
ed in oats this year is probably just
a trihe greater than the acreage de-
voted to that crop last year
The crop now growing has es-
capped the cold weather and freeze
even now would not kill it. In every
section of Sumter county vast stretches
of liyid green greet the eye of the
trayeler-tine fields of oats of TWEEN
to one hundred acres-and not a few
of several hundred acres.
The crop is in excellent condition,
and SHmter will again lead this year,
with probably a half million bushe
crop to her credit among the counties
of Georgia.
