The Sentry states that John Slaney,
who resides southeast of Eillsboro, no
doubt holds the record for these parts
for getting the most wood out of one
tree. He cut from it little over twen-
ty cords of stove length wood. The
tree was so large at the bottom that
he had to leave a stump six feet high.
Mr.. Slaney says he has cut more or
less timber all his life but never found
tree that produced an equal amount

FIRST OPEN BOIL
 REACHES THIS CITY
SEVERAL HAVE BEEN SEEN IN COTTON FIELDS IN THIS
 SECTION HOWEVER.
Crop Outlook Is Good and With Fla. vOrabIe Weather Conditions Good
 Yield Expected.

The first open cotton boil received this year was mailed to the Graphic yesterday by Smith and Seymour who have the management of the Mud Lake plantation of John M. Oracle, in this county. The boil was taken from the field Tuesday and while it is the is not the first that has been found in the fields in this county. Several days ago two bolls were taken from the field on Leo NJ. Andrews planta- ton, near this city, and other plant CTS have reported finding them on their farms. The first open bOlls this season are not in advance of any previous normal cotton crop sea- son.
 Planters in this locality have the finest crops ever grown in this sec ton of the country and expect lib- eral yield of the fIeecy staple if the weather continues favorable. There have been no boil worms in the fields in this immediate section as yet and few boil weevils have been found on nearby plantations or farms. The planters in some sections will make as much as a bale to the acre, while in other localities they say they will be satisfied with half bale to the acre. Taken all in all, the outlook for a good cotton crop is most encouraging.
