some PROGRESS
IS MADE TOWARD
PLANTING CROPS
FARMERS NOW BUSY At WORK
Planting is Badly HandiCapp-
ed, However

With two or three days of working
weather the farmers of Sumter have
made some progress this week IN
planting cotton, which important work
has been much delayed by unpropit-
ious weather.
Already the cotton planting season
is from ten days to two weeks late
for this season, and the lack of land
preparation, it is believed that the
acreage in Sumter county will be re-
duced considerably as compared with
the acreage planted in cotton last
year.
Hundreds of acres of the best lands
in the county, still water-soaked and
in some place inundated, will be
thrown out this year altogether, as by
the time it dries sufficiently to be
ploughed the planting season will have
passed.
Half the corn crop of the county yet
remains to be planted when it should
have been in the ground several weeks
go. Altogether, the farmers are Sc
iously handicapped by adverse con-
litions.

TRAP SHOOTS
COUNTRY CLUB TAKES ACTION
viii Put In Traps and Tennis
Courts

AT meeting of the directors of the
Country club held Tuesday afternoon
it was decided that all trap shooting
hereafter will be confined strictly to
members of the Country club.
Last year the Country club tender
ed the use of their grounds to the
Gun club and all shoots were conduct
ed under the auspices of this Gun
club, but for various reasons it IS
now deemed best for the Country club
to take charge of this sport, and put
in traps of their own, so that only
Country club members in good stand
ing will hereafter be permitted upon
the grounds. This will put an end to
the many petty annoyances committed
by the general public and for which
the Country club was in no wise re-
sponsible.
All members of the former Gun
club are cordially invited to become
members of the Country club.
Messrs. Joe w. Hightower, chair
man; Harris Council, G. D. Wheatley.
Jr., W. A. Hawkins and E. C. Palmer
were appointed a special committee to
handle all matters pertaining to this
department.
A committee also was instructed to
install two tennis courts at once for
the use of all of the members.

SUGGESTION

Professor BaStOW, the Vocal
Teacher, Offered Suggestion

A suggestion has been made that
should prove of interest to the music
lovers of Americas who have the de-
sire to see an appreciation of local
musical talent fostered and encour-
aged 1t was made recently by Pro
fessor Bastow, who is in charge OF
large class in voice culture here anil
who believes that it could be made a
popular success.
The suggestion in brief is that a
chorus be organized here to give an
nually or oftener a musical evening
either in the opera house or else
where, so that general interest may
be stimulated in music here in the
city, not only instrumental, but also
of vocal music. The program for an
occasion of this kind may be worked
out so as to include both vocal and in
strumental numbers.
AS it would require some time to
organize and to prepare work of this
kind, especially if the first attempt
is to be entered into before the sum-
mer season arrives, it is hoped that
every one in the city who is Interested
in the work may see Mr.. Bastow In
person and let him know whether suf-
ficient support can be given to it to
make it a success. Singers in the city
