FARM LABOR SCARCE.

AS was to have been expected:
there is now grea scarcity Of farm
labor in Lexington County. We
know number Of farmers who have
been forced to keep their favorite
mules and horses in the stable for the
reason that there is no one to work
them in harness. We know in some
instances, too, where the women are
going out into the fields to help their
husbands till the soil-women who
heretofore have remained in the home
and cared for their Children and look
ed after their domestic affairs. But
the great war is being felt and the
devoted women on the farm are do
ing splendid service.

ROBINS WILL HAVE
 PLENTY MATERIAL

Whether they train on the banks of the Gowanus Canal, the pictures que hills of Prospect Park or in Grupp's gymnasium where many fighters got in shape for ring battles, Manager 'Wilbert Robinson of the Robins will not be handicapped by lack of playing material. At present on the Brooklyns reserve list there are the names of no less than fl
 athletes, some boasting of more fame than others in diamond deeds.
 If all the members of the club were to assemble at the same time and place Manager Robbie would
 find himself in the midst of seven- teen pitchers, an abundant supply of
 righthanders and more than enough
 who throw from the wrong side;
 fourteen inf1elders, many of whom are unfamiliar with big league
 ways; five outfelders and the same
 number of backstOps.
 However, Manager Robbie may have no fears of being surrounded by the army of forty-one, as several ot the men whose names appear on the list are not going to return to the diamond next spring, at least not ir | Brooklyn uniforms. A few of these
 players are Jimmy Archer, Al Ma l mauX, Jack Snyder and Jake Dau. i bert. Archer announced a few days

WILDE MAY
 COME TO AMERICA

Jimmy Wilde, the most sensational of all English boxers, expects to cross the Atlantic within the next few months. The British hyweight cham pion wants to reach out his gloved mitts for rich purses that can be cor ralled in this country. Most of all he desires a return engagement with Pal Moore, who won from him on points in the recent Kings Cup tournament in London.
 Wilde has been a mystery to Brit ish boxing authorities, and especially to his opponents. In appearance and style he is everything fighters should not be. Eugene Corri, noted London referee and sportsman, describes Wilde as g. puny youngster whose
 ring methods invite disaster. The | Marquis of Queensbury, who laid down modern rules for boxing, cer- | tainJy never contemplated his regu- Iations for any one in the makeup of Q Jimmy Wilde.
 | Yet the British title holder has top pied over every kind of opposition, even when it weighed much more than his bare 100 pounds. Really, Wilde is more of a mystery to medi- eos than to boxing judges, for scores
 of doctors have marvelled how he commands strength and endurance to withstand not one but many hard ring
 battles.
 Wilde with his peculiar boxing tac- I'tics went through the British ranks
 like Q reaper through & wheat field. Invariably he went out of his class
 for victims. This record didn't i'm
 press American rings followers to any
 great extent, because 1t was excused on the ground that English boxers } lacked class in late years.
 The British champion, however, eff ; fectively dispelled this belief when he disposed of Joe Lynch, a rugged New York scrapper, in the Kings Cup , Lynch, with everything but experi.
 ence in his favor, failed to cope witt
 Wilde's system of coaxing the other l fellow into danger with a wide-oper , defense.
 After winning from Lynch, the lit
 tie Briton continued his ability tC Y puzzle ring experts when he lost tl ' Pal Moore of New Orleans. The mar :, | gin of victory was so narrow, though
 that Wilde already Is asking for a re ' turn match. Moore is now on tn ; way back to the United States. It l ' reasonably certain that Wilde wi
 follow within a short time.
