Two CROPS, At
LEAST, ARE TO
y BE ABUNDANT
OATS and PEACHES ASSURED
Such is the Prediction Made
Here

.pp+ If down that Sumter county
mill produce two abundant crops this
,,oar. oats and peaches" said Mr.,
Prod r. Arthur yesterday upon re-
4,,rring to Americas from an extended
drive in the country. And as evidence
Of his assertion he produced a hand
fnI of fine and firm Elbertas.
The young peaches were half the
size of guinea eggs and already show
ROSY blush indicative of the beauty
and lusciousness to be developed in
July.
# is a fact that the orchards in the
Ar,oricus territory promise an album
dant Weld this season. The trees are
heavily fruited, and as the young
noacbes show no evidence of the at
tack of insects the quality as well as
the quantity will be the best.
While the fruit shown by Mr.. Ar
tbur was of the hardy alberta variety,
the other peachy favorites, the Car
mems and Bellies, are in as fine condi-
tion, These three varieties make up
very largely the shipping list al
though a few Greensborough and Alex
anders are shipped in May and June.
As Mr. Arthur states, the oat crop
of Sumter, while not as great in area
as last year, is quite promising, and
with continued good seasons for three
weeks longer, will turn out quite as
well as expected.

FAIRBURN POSTOFFICE
BLASTED BY YEGGMEN

Fairburn, Ga, May 2.-The postof-
flee at this place was entered last
night and the safe blown open. There
was only a small amount in the safe,
about $40.
From the condition of the wrecked
safe, which was blown to pieces, it is
supposed to have been the work of
professional yeggmen. After entering
the postoffice they broke a glass in
the window of the drug store, but were
frightened away before entering. There
is no clue.

EXHIBITING NEW ENGLAND BUS. NESS. HOW IS TT TO BE DONE?

By shouting about New England S greatness? YES
 By favorine home industries when YOU can? YES.
 By working to develop your own home town and state? YES
 By public and semi-public activity? YES.
 Rv joining and working with asso- citations of business men? YES.
 All these things help if they don't degenerate into narrow sectionalism or unfair favor tisn-but the biggest thing any man can do to boost New England, or his state, or his town, IS to put all the enterprise and push at his command into his personal busi- ness, whatever it may be. MT. Mer- chant, advertise your store right, and you will advertise your town. MT Manufacturer, the honest energy you put into the making and selling Of your products looms big in na king a reputation for your community.
 Strare, as it may seem, the men who are most busy and efficient with their own affairs are most busy and efficient in organized activity for the public gooC
 Spend money to advertise New Eng land? YES
 YES
 Handle this advertising as the wise advertiser does his own publicity. Fi-d out what he has to sell and tell the truth about it in an attractive way.

the red bridge on the Charlton
river between Keytesville and
Salisbury John Mckenzie
Hubbard, II year old son OF
Robert P. Hubbard, one Of the
most extensive farmers south
east of this city, made q dive of
limb into the water which was
ten or twelve feet deep, and be-
ing under SO long his father who
was on the bank. thinking some
thing must be wrong, called the
attention Of some who were in
the water to the fact. Pretty
soon the young man came to the
surface and the others, thinking
he was playing a prank, allowed
him to sink twice before he was
pulled ashore.
After being got out It was
discovered that ia was peralized
from below the arms down.
Drs. Dewey and Shropshire were
Immediately called and did what
could be done for the relief OF
the young fellow.
Young Hubbard, who has
been in thorough possession of
his mental faculties, says that
he struck a log down towards
the bottom which caused the
trouble, but the fact that there
are no marks. contusions, abrasi-
ons, breaks nor scratches any
where on his person upholds the
theory that such could not have
been the cause but on the con-
trary. conclusion by striking the

Young Hubbard was conveyed
to the home Of Birley Wood
where he remained until Monday
then he was taken to the home
of his father where he is still In
practically unchanged condition.
