To BE CnrfaiIef.

beiiefeS crop is
To Be CurtaiIed.
w. p. A. Sherard of Iva, one of the
best known planters in Anderson
county, was in Anderson yesterday on
business and while here talked TO q
reporter for The Intelligencer con-
corning the business outlook, from the
farmers viewpoint. Mr.. Sherard says
that the colt crop will be curtailed
next year for two reasons. He beiiev-
es that the farmers have come to real
ize the necessity for raising less cot
ton and he also knows that many Of
them will not have the means next
year to purchase fertilizer with which
to raise a big cotton crop. Mr.. Sher-
ard says that he can see but little
good to result from the legislation now
underway to help the farmer, but he
believes that the war is going to be q
great thing for the farmers OF the
South and especially of the Piedmont
section and he believes there will be
more money in the South next year
than the people of this country ever
had before.

Walsenburg, Colo, April 2S.-Scven
mine guards were dead today and a
man and woman wounded as q result
of an armed clash late yesterday which
ended in the capture of the McNally
'mine, owned by the Colorado Fuel 4

strikers on the Walsen mine was ex-
pected before night.
Fifty shots were exchanged at

Ten minutes after the first volley

guards dashed from a boarding house
seeking places of safety and all escap-
ed except one. He was shot dead in
his tracks. Later lone horseman
dashed from camp and strikers sent
volley of shots in his direction. He
pitched headlong from the saddle but
the riderless horse kept going.
