CENTRAL
MAY HAVE
TEST FARM
SITUATED NEAR The CITY
Investigations to Be Made
Very Soon

Notification was given yesterday to
Secretary Patterson of the Board of
Trade, that the Central of Georgia
railway would soon have Mr.. Chastain,
it's agricultural superintendent, visit
Americas with the purpose in view of
ascertaining the merits of establish
ing test farm here.
These test farms have been estab-
lished by the Central in many coun-
ties of this section, with the. result
that some helpful work is being done
in this way The railroad has worked
out a method of handling these test
farms so that they prove of practical
benefit to the counties in which they
are established.
The attention of the agricultural de-
partment of the road to an excellent
place for a test farm near here was
called by Secretary Patterson some
time ago. The letter received yes
terday contained the statement that
the visit of the agricultural superin-
tendent of the Central to Americas,
which would be some time soon, would
determine whether this place would
prove suitable one for the test
farm.

BOILS..PIMPLES--ADCE
All Evidence of Impure Blood and Il
Rundown Condition.

When the blood becomes thin, poor,
devitalized nature cries out through
such external and often painful evil
dence for help, and the safest, surest
and most helpful remedy we know IS
Vinol.
This is because it is a combina.
ton of the two most world famed
tonics-the medicinal curative ele-
ments of cod liver oil without the
oiD and tonic iron for the blood. Vi
mol strengthens the digestive organs,
creates hearty appetite, purifies and
enriches the blood, creates strength.
Mary Lang, of Altoona, Pa, say
Ever since childhood l have been
delicate and my blood poor, thin, and
devitalized. Nothing seemed to help
me until took Vinol and it has built
me up and made me strong"
We say positively there is nothing
like Vinol to purify and enrich the
blood and build up weak, rundown
people. If it should fail in your case
we will return your money. Murray

SESSION OF
COURT Will
BE OPENED
SUPERIOR COURT CONVENES
For the Fall Term Here To-
morrow

The November term of Sumter SUI
perior court convenes tomorrow morn
ing, and during the next three weeks,
at least, the courthouse will be a
centre of interest in the trial of cases,
both civil and criminal Judge 2. A.
Littiejohn will preside, while Solicitor
General j. R. Williams viii represent
the state.
The organization of the grand jury
tomorrow morning and the charge of
the court will put the legal machinery
in motion, the grand jury entering at
once upon the investigation of cases
brought before that body
The civil docket is not an unusually
heavy one at this term, and it is be-
lieved that the greater number of
civil cases will be disposed of within
the week. There are only three or
four prisoners in Jail, awaiting trial,
though the grand jury will develop
other cases of criminal nature.
Three weeks, it is believed, will suf-
fee for this session of court, although
final adjournment may not be had
until near the holiday season.

"FORTY-F,VE MINUTES
FROM BROADWAY" COMING

Local theatre-goers will receive
with pleasurable anticipation the an
nouncement that Latimore I; Leigh
will offer at the Opera House on Tues
day, Nov 26, their lavishly appoint
ed production of George M. Cohan's
popular and unique mixture of melody
and comedy "Forty-Five Minutes
From Broadway"
The play is not unlike any of the
popular actor-author's former efforts,
but it is different in theme and treat
ment from any attraction within the
memory of the present generation of
play-loyers, and by man it is claimed
to be the highest mark of quality that
Mr. Cohan has yet achieved. While
there are number of typical Cohan
song hits introduced during the three
acts and made more effective by u
well balanced chorus, a we'll thought
out story, replete with several sur
prises and some very strong dramatic
situations, is closely adhered to
throughout The new departure in
this direction was responsible in a
large measure for the tremendous
vogue the play enjoyed in New York
and Chicago, where it ran continuous
w for over n wear with practically th,,
same cast that will be seen here. Miss
Hazele Burgess will be seen in the
role of Mary" a servant girl in New
Rochelle, a town exactly three-quar>
tiers OF an hour distant, by train, from
New York's main thoroughfare, and
in which the story of the play is laid.
Bert Leigh will he seen as kid

BLACK OR WHITE IS
NOW The Thing
BrOChG and Brilliant Satin
Being Combined

New York, Nov. 23.-Happily enough
in the midst of audacious color
schemes are to be found one-tone de-
signs so simple as to prove of infinite
restfulness to eye satiated with bril-
liancy.
Now that the craze for maybe eff
fects has died down, black frocks and
white ones, all black or all white, be
it understood, are being offered. Their
smartness is one of the momentous
pieces of fashion news.
No investment could be of greater
promise now than a gown Of black
broche and satin, so supple as to be
manipulated easily in pleats closely
fitting and wei secured for such por-
lions of the design as the major part
of the corsage and skirt, but left to
fall free above the feet.
Many of the most elegant effects are
produced by block broche wrapped
around the figure a l-Indienne and
some of the most exquisite by the
use of white charmeuse or crepe de
chine treated in the same manner
In spiral device following the hem
of the material, fur enchains the wear
er, white fox or swansdown for the
white gown, and for the black one
fox dyed black, or any other pelt
preferred.
1t will be noticed that the brilliant
ly surfaced satins of old will return
to favor. The slender will receive
this information with interest and
pleasurable anticipation, but the most
robust should ponder we'll the influence
of lustrous material and especially
of black and white.
Black satin, in particular, when the
surface is brilliant, throws into re-
lief the curves of the Junoesyue ply
sique ard makes bowed or round
shoulders increase in undesira BILE
prominence. But why even suggest
warning?

COMMON LAW

There is every indication that to-
morrow night at the Opera house our
home interest in affairs theatrical will
find much that is novel and exciting
from a dramatic standpoint consider
ed, inasmuch as THE Common Law
a dramatization from Robert W. Cham
bers universally read novel, has met
with a cordial reception wherever It
has been presented since the eminently
successful production of it was made
toward the close of last season when
the general verdict of both press and
public made it absolutely clear that
the producer had not miscalculated
as regards the potency of "The Com
mon Law" as a story for stage pur-
poses, fully in tune with the popular
demand for sensational drama worked
out on entirely new lines.
"The Common Law" as may we'll
be imagined, will be offered by a COM
pany of players who can be firmly re-
lied upon for an intelligent under
standing of the authors purpose and
that the presentation is made with
due regard for all the scenic require
ments in order to accentuate the pic
turesque Importance of story re-
plete with many sided interests

PRIVATE RETREAT
FOR MATING BIRDS

Washington, d. c., Nov. ga pri-
vate retreat for nesting birds will be
maintained by the federal government
near Valentine, Neb. President Taft
has proclaimed the reservation of 613
additional acres on the Fort Niobrara
reservation, the only reserve on the
continent now maintained for the
breeding of prairie chickens, sharp
tailed grouse and quail. Citizens of
Valentine and the National AssOcia-
ton of Audubon Societies subscribed
sufficient money to put heavy wire
mesh fence around the tracts within
which there will be Immediately To-
Gated, as companions of the three spe-
cies of the grouse family, herds OF
bison, deer and antelope presented by
Nebraskan who has been breeding
these animals for years.

TAFTS TURKEY WEIGHS
OVER THIRTY POUNDS

Westerly r. l., Nov 23-The final
touches are being put on President
Taft's Thanksgiving turkey at the
farm of Horace Vose here this week.
For many years Vose has donated q
bird every November to the White
House table. The Taft turkey will
weigh about thirty pounds and is
chestnut fed, this giving a delicate
favour not found in corn fed gobblers.
One of the new refinements of train
ing which is being tried on thte Taft
Turkey is daily massage of the
fowls crop in order to facilitate di-
gestion of the contents.
