FAT EASTER LAMBS
WILL BRING AROUND
EIGHT CENTS PER LIB.
JUNE MARKET Is A RATHER
MORE UNCERTAIN PROPOSE.
TIoN ON ACCOUNT CLOVER,
CUT SHORT BY WINTER FREEZES
One Hundred Have Already Been
Shipped Out by Local Dealers-Too
Early to Make Any Certain Predlc-
tions on Lambs for Late Delivery.

Early spring lambs will bring a
good price this year, in the opinion of
one of largest stock dealers of the
county. He believes that Eeaster
lambs will bring around eight cents
per pound.
The market on the June lambs is a
rather uncertain proposition. 1t de-
ponds altogether on the amount of
grass that is grown this spring and
how fat the lambs will be. The young
clover seems to have been cut short
by the winter freezes, and there will
not be so much to feed them as there
has been in the past They grow and
fatten great deal faster on clover
than on other grasses.
This dealer has already shipped out
to the markets one hundred lambs.
Most of them were late lambs of last
fall, and so were big fellows. They
ulu hoI lu6 hCdl SO lAuCu do Cllt
early spring lambs will. There will
be great demand about Easter time
for fat, forty to fifty pound lambs for
the Easter trade In all, there will
hardly be car to 60 from this coun-
ty, as the season has been backward
on account of the weather, and there
has not been the grass on which to
fatten them. AS stated above
though, these few will bring good
prices.
The June market, however, is Of
most concern to the farmers Of this
section. That is the time at which
ninety-five per cent or more of the
lamb crop is sold and delivered. The
grasses and clovers will have to grow
very rapidly to get along enough to
fatten them properly for the market.
The latter is short this season, and
so the farmers will have to rely main
ly upon the former. to put on the fat.

church Sunday, March %, at p. m,
Immediately following the usual
church service. The church was pref
lilly decorated in ported plants and
cut flowers. To the strains Of the
wedding march, played by the organ
list, Mrs. Roxie M. Moore, the aunt of
the bride, the wedding party entered,
Miss Eddie Wantland, sister of the
groom, accompanied by Hugh Smith,
brother of the bride, came up the
right aisle. Opposite them by the
left aisle entered Miss Simmie Lee
Moore, the brides cousin, and her
friend, Flournoy Wilsford. They were
followed by the bride, leaning on the
arm of her chosen lifemate. They
met at the chancel rail by her pas
tor, Rev. B. T. Lannom, who perform
ed the ceremony in an impressive
manner.
The brides natural girlish beauty
was enhanced by lovely suit of blue
with white lace waist and gloves.
Her hat was beautiful blue and tan
chiffon, trimmed in pink velvet and
dozens of pink and cream rosebuds.
She never looked more handsome
than on this, her wedding day. The
bridesmaids wore blue suits with
black hats and gloves. With the
blinds drawn and the soft glow of the
shaded lights, they made scene not
soon to be forgotten. Immediately
after the ceremony the bridal party
repaired for short while to the
brides home near the church, where
their intimate friends gathered to con-
graduate them. On leaving for the
home of the groom's father, where a
wedding supper awaited them, they
were showered with rice and many
wishes for health, happiness and pros
perity.
The bride is the eldest daughter of
T. 2. Smith, the merchant at Neapo-
lis, and has by her sweet face and
lovely character endeared herself to
many. The groom is the youngest
character. He holds responsible
position with the Columbia Water &
Light Company. After April 1 they
