To the Editor of Tho Dispatch: -
Dry weather still continues and
farmers are little blue, as cotton
and corn stands are very poor; yet if
rain comes soon there is still a chance
for good crop.
Gardens have suffered most from
want of moisture. The small grain
crop, though light, is better than was
expected, and harvesting is going on
now. Where cotton was planted ear
ly, came up to stand, tLinned and
worked out, is growing nicely. S. F..
Erlisor has a nice field of corn about
knee high. It was planted about the
middle of March.
Abouta month ago the boys at Peak
organized baseball team with L. A.
Mayer manager and Sam, Ben Hitler
captain. Saturday, 9th May, was
the first match game against the good
natured Summerville boys, who or
ganized few years ago. Judging
from the crowd in attendance, this
section too, is interested in baseball.
There were about 200 present, about
half of whom we're ladies'.
The score stood 20 to 1 in favor Of
the baby team-Peak.
The Peak and St. John Baseball
teams crossed bats on the formers
diamond Saturday afternoon and the
three hundred fans present enjoyed a
6ae game, tho the Peak boys did net
get to finish their part Of the ninth
inning on account of the gathering
shades of evening. When the game
was called off the score stood 8 to in
favor of Peak, with the bases loaded
with Peak men.

Guess where? ...
The writer had the pleasure of at
tending the Southern Baptist Conven-
ton as a representative of the Lex ing

sonville, Fla The convention was
largely attended. What We saw and
heard would take up too much Of your
valuable space. Jacksonville is d
pretty city, While there we visited
the ostrich farm. Here we saw, the
VIC nderful birds in all sizes and ages.
The eggs weigh from 1-2 to pounds.
They are hatched after the male and
female sits upon them alternately for
IS days-the female sitting through
the day and the male during the night.
After they are from three to four
years old they mate off, and If one
dies the other never mates again.
The plumes are cut every nine months.

from S. to $50 each. The average
life of the ostrich is 80 years, and
they are very strong. We saw one
hitched to buggy with man driv-
ing Another carried grown man
on his back and went at lively gait.
There were many other animals to
be seen.
y We took steamer across the. his
toric St. Johns river to an orange
grove. We saw two crops of oranges
on the trees at the same tine. We
bought some e'fresh from the trees at
Is cents per dozen and all we wanted
to eat there, and what Billy did for
'em in the grove was enough.
The convention was great, the city
beautiful, the people hospitable-for
your money-and the trip enjoyable
as we'll as profitable.
Another trip took was to our own
pretty capital as a delegate to- the
Grand Lodge x. of P. But can't
mention all I saw and learned on
these pleasant trips Of duty and ser

acquaintances.
