Zero SOUGHT
IN RACE CLASH
ESCAPES

LEESBURG, Feb. Cooper Biv-
ms, the second negro of the two who
killed Marion Bass and wounded G.
L. Cassells and II. E. Laramore Sat
urday night, has not been caught,
though vigorous search is being
made near Desoto and in the county
adjacent to Lee for him.
Ed Tison, the other negro, was
caught Sunday and lynched by the
posse in pursuit of him.
There is much bad blood existing
between the negroes of the Desoto
section and relatives of Abner Green,
who was fired upon Saturday after
noon, causing the later trouble. If
the Bivins negro is caught he will
doubtless be lynched.
BY many the trouble is regarded
as the outcome of deliberate effort
on the part of Green's friends to get
rid of Bivins and Will Webster, who
shot out Green's eyes last August and
who was acquitted in Sumter Su
perior Court on a charge of venue
from Lee County.

HIT HIGHEST MARKET PRICE
Easier Done With Grain Crops Than
With livestock-Animals Must
Go When They Are Ready.

It is much easier, generally speak.
ing, to hit the highest market price
with grain crops than It is with live
stock. There are various powerful
Iinte1ests that aim at certain seasons
OF the year to depreciate the prices
Iof meat products and grain. The
grain farmer is less at their mercy
than the stock farmer, because he
can, as a rule, hold his grain for a
few months until the market suits
him. Tie stockman cannot do this
with his cattle. sheep and swine to
anything like the same extent Cat
lie. sheep and swine must go when
they are ready for market. It Is the
best thing farmer can do to sell
when they are ready. that Is, when
they have reached q weight at which
he cannot add more weight at q
profit. The only advice that It Is safe
to give on this point Is to avoid being
q market chaser, and to sell fattened
stock when It Is at to ship. There
is large expense connected with
holding fat stock and in many In
stances the market goes the wrong
way. Every farmer knows that with
corn at. say 80 cents. he Is assuming
the role Of q speculator by holding a
bunch for a higher market, after most
Of the food Of support and the food
Of gain becomes g diminishing guam
tity, diminished to such an extent that
he cannot make a profitable increase
On his stock.

REyUyENATE AN OLD ORCHARD
increase In Size and Color Of Fruit
!s Very Largely Due TO Jud!clous
Tee Of Prune Saw.

By g. VAN SMITH. Colorado Agricul-

Our attention Is being called every
day to the example Of some farmer
with an idea, who takes a pruning
saw and goes into an old and unproft-
able orchard and makes 1t pay attrac-
i've dividends. Proper cultivation and
spraying are important factors IN
such a rejr7enation, but the increase
In size and color Of fruit Is very largo
" due to judicious pruning.
In old orchards which have been
neglected the thing most noticeable
Is the fact that the tree tops contain
too much wood; too many limbs.
Many Of these are large limbs which
should have been cut out years ago
wheH they were small and the shock
to the tree would not have been so
great, to say nothing Of the saving Of

BAMBOO AS PAPER MATERIAL
Experiments Being Made With the
Hope That This Material May
Ee Found Available.

Inventors are seeking substitute
for the wood pulp In the manufacture
Of paper. So far various methods
have been tried to produce the coarser
grades OF paper from corn husks,
grass, reeds and other forms OF veg
.etable life, but print paper has not
yet been successfully produced from
anything except wood pulp.
In the far east they are making eX-.
periments with bamboo as a possible
basis for the making Of pulp. Some
capitalists Of the Orient have gpne so
far as to establish factories IN Siam,
Burma and India, but the undertaking
has not yet been altogether successful.
The great factor against the success
OF the enterprise IN India seems to be
the question o. satisfactory and cheap
transportation.
Pulp so far manufactured has had
the fault OF being too dark In color to
bring q satisfactory price. Bambcos
most Of the time so far have cost $s.&1
geld ton. Little Of the psoduct 80
far has been sold, but samples sub
rnitted in London indicate that the
company may receive as high es $5S.N
gold ton. The maximum output Of
the factory so far has not exceeded
haf Of the original expectation Of Is
tons Of pulp q dag. but 1t Is now e1-
pected that with q small addition to
the plant normal output OF II tons
can be maintained and that this rate
may be exceeded In time. with COM
paratiye1y Little additional expense.
The critical feature OF the entire
enterprise seems to be In the matter
Of bleaching the pulp. Experts claim
for bamboo pulp certain advantages.
among which is the fact that bamboo
pulp can be had In parts Of the world
where other pulp materials are not to
be had; It produces q fine pulp which
feIts readily and produces thick
opaque paper Of greater thickness
than usual for It's weight. making It
especially suitable for particular va
rieties Of paper; the fine flexible aber
is easily digested by the ordinary bs-
snlphide process and the bamboo can
readily be banded mechanically and /!

Irrigated Orchard Near Montrose, Col.
this superfuous wood. One Of the
most valuable qualities Of market
fruit Is good, attractive color. It takes
light and plenty OF it to make good
color and the tree top with too many
branches will keep out the sunlight
and, consequently, will not produce
well-colored fruit.
In market fruit, size as well as col
or is important. The tree that tries
to produce too many apples will be
unable to bring them to good size:
Thinning the fruit will aid very ma
terially In increasing the size, but a
good deal Of work In thinning can be-
saved by taking out some Of the extra
wood this winter.
