MORE CATTLE ARRIVE.
L.. ID. Jennings Gets Carload of Angus
From Kentucky.

From The Daily Item, Aug. 20.
Mayor l.. ID. Jennings this week has
received another carload OF the blood
ed cattle which he purchased several
months ago oa tCip t. KENTUCKY.
This time carload of fourteen head
OF full blood Angus cattle came in
from Shepherdsville. Ky. The cattle
arrived in good shape and have been
placed with the heard of eighteen
shorthorns which arrived some weeks
ago. hu-
In the herd were one large bull, a
bull calf. heifer calf and all of the
others were heifers and COWS. Two
cows in the car came to H. w. Hardy,
in addition to those for Mr.. jennings.
This gives Mr.. Jennings a good start
for raising beef cattle. and a change
in agricultural methods is apt to re-
suit from farmers bringing in cattle
to commence a new industry in this
section of the State.

LAMAR WINS LAST.
In Frcc-IIitting Game the Visitors
Capture the Last of Series by "a
Score of to 3. Sumter Team Con-
sidcrabIy Weakened. White Op-
posed DuBOsc on Mound.

The sumter team went into the
game with Lamar on Saturday con-
siderably weakened. The infield had
to be patched up, and Drevenstedt was
forced to take center field, and to add
to the trouble the pitcher who was
slated to work for the locals missed
his railroad connections, and White
was sent to the mound.
The game was full Of real live sit
uations and there was an abundance
of hitting on both sides. The Sum-
ter boys landed for nine safeties, two
being three-baggers, while the boys
from Lamar smashed out eleven clean
ones one three-bagger and two dou-
bles
White pitched a remarkably good
game against team like Lamar sent,
and, with the exception Of three in
nings, he held things tight, and, from
the first looked as if he was going to
get away with a shut-out. There is no
doubt but that his work far eXcelled
that of DuBose, and it was fast work
behind the visitors pitcher that saved
him. The Sumter team was literally
shot all to pieces, and team work was
noticeabiy lacking. With better base
running and a little more life on the
coaching lines, the game most likely
would have resulted in tie.
"Old Horse Mabry" broke into the
hit column with a single and a triple,
and everyone was glad to see him
get out of his slump. He worked
hard, and held the team together as
best he could.
The game was good one 'front.'
the spectators point of view, am
there was enough excitement raped
up in the eigh innings of play to
satisfy the most enthusiastic fan.
The game was called at the end of
the eighth, by agreement, in order TO
allow the visitors to catch a train.

SECURE WEDL KNOWN JUDGE.
j. II. Drcvenstcdt of Buffalo Will Act
ut Sumter County Poultry Show.

The Sumter County Poultry and
Pigeon Fanciers' Association has been
fortunate in securing J. H. Dreven-
stedt of Buffalo, n. Y, poultry edi-
tor of the Poultry Fancier, one Of the
best poultry magazines in the coun-
try, and one of the best known and
most capable poultry judges in the
country. to act at their show which
will De held in the tobacco warehouse
on November 10th, 18th apd 18th.
Mr.. X. L. Mcleod secretary Of the
association, this morning received q
letter from Mr.. Drevenstedt in which
the latter stated that it would be
agreeable for him to come at that
time and offering to do all in his pow
er 10 make the show a success. Or
additional interest to local people Is
the fuct that .dr. prcNcnstedt besides
being IL p"ultrymau OF national rep
utation, Is the father Of II. E. Dreven-
stedt of this city, an engineer at the
Sumter Lighting Company, who IS
very we'll known for his active part
I'm baseball and basketball circles.
1t was partly to the fact that Mr..
Drcvcnstedt desired to come down to
gee his son and to come South that
he consented to act as Judge.
The committee of the poultry or
ganization state that they are already
assured Of between five and six huE-
dred fowls for exhibition and they
want TO have Il thousand fine b,rJs. if
judicious advertising and numcI Gus
prizes can induce poultry raisers
throughout the South to send that
many birds.
The plans are to have the show
in the tobacco warehouse, which will
assure plenty of light, air and room
for poultry and spectators. The com
mittee Is hard at work over the
problems. which are coming UP In
connection with the show and these
are being solved as soon as they an.
pear so as to insure everything be-
ing In readiness in plenty of time
without any rush or crowding at the
last minute.

Good tobacco is selling for fair
prices, poor tobacco brings poor prices.
That is the whole story. Those who
are disappointed with the returns
from tobacco should blame the curer
sOt the buyer. Tobacco is "a crop
that requires careful and intelligent
handling from the planting of the
secd-hed until il Is placed on the
warehouse floor and unless IA farmer
is prepared to give it the necessary at
tcntion II is an Improbable crop.
When you hear man kicking about
the price of tobacco ask him about
hc quality of his tobacco. 1t is true.
however, that tobacco prices are low
"r this year than for several years.
NJ this Is due TO general trade CON
ditions and To tho quality of tho crop
which Is not up to the average.

The Regional Banks may have all
the money necessary to finance the
cotton crop, but it will do the pro-
ducers of cotton, a majority Of whom
are small farmers and tenants, little
good, unless some scheme is devised to
deal more directly with the producers
than heretofore. If there are to be
three or four intermediary money
changers between the Regional Banks
and the producers with each one get
ting rake off the producers will have
to pay the usual high rates of interest
or sacrifice their crops to settle their
debts under pressure. s- --...--. 49, ,s

From The Daily Item, Aug. 21.

From The Daily Item, Aug. 81.
With the hits four to three in Sum-
ter's favor and with the errors bal
anced all at one each, it looked like @
shame FOR locals to lose the game with
Lamar yesterday. They lost fighting
gamely, and, even in the last inning,
1t looked as if the tide might be turn
cd, and the boys from Lamar had to
put up giltedged ball to land the VIC
tory. The game was lost to a good
team of gentlemanly players, and to
such a defeat there is no sting, only
Il little pang of regret.
1t was all over after the opening
inning. O'Neale. first up, drove a
scorcher down the third base line, and
landed on first. y. Flowers laid
down bunt to Weeks, who first
fumbled the ball, and threw too late
to second to catch O'Neale. Carter
went out on ball knocked in front
of the plate, Mabry to Boyle; but
ONeale took advantage Of the throw,
and was home like a flash with first
run. 1t was fine piece of baserun-
ming. Mabry singled, scoring Flow
ers. and the next two batters were
easy outs. leaving Mabry on second.
After the first, the Sumter boys
tigtened up. and the best that Lamar
could do was to get one hit in the
eighth inning, and that with two
down. Both pitchers worked wonder
fully, Weeks yielding only three hits,
while O'Neale gave up four, two Of
these came in a row in the sixth, but
Plummer's catch of Spann's drive cut
Off the only chance to count. "Old
Horse" Mabry did some fine head
work, and interchanged Weeks and
White on the mound, working Weeks
when right-handed batters were up,
and sending White in to pitch to the
letters. O'Neale had world of
steam. and not satisfied with pitch
ing like fury for the mines, he worked
between innings to keep his arm
right. Some iron man from Charles
ton!
The fielding honors are all with
Tupper. He accepted seven hard
chances at short without an error,
and some of them were of the diff
cult variety. Besides this, he landed
safely. on the pill once, and was rob-
bed Of another hit in the ninth,
which, however, was errored, and
left him safely at first
Dr. nuRant umpired n good game,

The winter legumes offer to the
Southern farmer opportunities that
are almost boundless, and the farm
er who uses them intelligently is go
ing to be rewarded with crops he
hardly thought possible When we
see yields Of corn and cotton being
actually doubled from one or two
clover crops plowed under, we mar
vel at the thought of the newer and
better South that is to come when
these crops are generally grown.
Don't let the "inoculation bogey"
scare you. Inoculation is really very
simple, as you will find by reading the
articles in The Progressive Farmer,
and, unless you are absolutely GER
tain your soil already has plenty of the
bacteria, as evidenced by previously
successful crops. don't neglect to in
oculate. TO do SO is an invitation to
almost certain failure.
Winter legumes not only add from
fifty TO one hundred and fifty pounds
of nitrogen to each acre on which
they are grown, but they also add
great quantities of humus or decaying
vegeta bic matter which serves to
unlock and make available a good
deal of the insoluble phosphoric acid
and potash in the soil. Farming
without humus is little like eating
bread without butter-a rather dry
sorry, unsatisfying sort Of business.
Don't forget either, that while the
! clovers are busy during the winter
adding nitrogen and humus to our
soils. they are also guarding these
soils, from washing and teaching Ev-
