FORT MILL BALL TEAM
TOWS IN GREAT FALLS

Baseball fans considered the unusual
amount of cheering emanating from the
park in Whiteville Saturday afternoon
very much in order. since it lent en-
couragement to the Fort Mill boys to
extend themselves to win from Great
Falls one of the hardest fought games
ever seen on the local grounds, the
score standing when the . last man
had been turned back, Fort Mill Z.
Great Falls 6. Not until the end of the
ninth did Fort Mill have the game sewed
up and salted down. Great Falls came
to Fort Mill expecting to win and
fought hard to that end, but in base
ball as in another popular pastime that
everybody's Uncle Samuel has Just
about called off since the 18th amend
ment became operative, there's many
slip 'twixt the cup and the lid. Until
the sixth inning the visitors held Fort
Mill to a series of little round digits
that, standing alone, don't help much in
paying grocer's bills. Then the home
team came to the front with rush.
putting six men across before Great
Falls walked up to what was happening.
The Chester county lads added two to
their total in the seventh, tieing the
score, and that was the best they could
do In the ninth the one run necessary
to return Fort Mill winner was forth
coming.
Great Falls has a fast team that is
not easily beaten, as the Fort Mill bows
first learned on a trip to that place a
few days ago. when they barely man.
aged to nose out, to 8, the boys that
live close to the banks of the muddy
Catawba.
In the game Saturday the batteries
were: Fort Mill, Marlborough and Haw-
kins; Great Falls, Waring and Webb.
Umpire, Capt S. w. Parks.
For Fort Mill there were in the game
three Smiths, one of the trio being
'Whacker, who caught flies in CEN
terfield with as much ease as he caught
Germans in France.
Friday afternoon at 4:45 the Fort Mill
team will take on the strong Cole Man
ufacturing company bunch from Char
lotte and at 4 o'clock Saturday after
noon has an engagement to meet Ara
gon mills that is apt to keep everybody
awake. Both games will be PLAYED in
Fort Mill.

AGENT BLAIR SAVED THE
FARMERS LOT OF MONEY

Clemson College, May 25.-An inter
esting illustration of how farmers save
money by buying supplies cooperative
~ Is given in recent report from
John r. Blair, county agent of York
county. Mr.. Blair writes as follows.
"On Tuesday | delivered car of nj
trate of soda that had been ordered CO.
operatively by farmers. This was the
last of total of Ia cars 40 ordered.
The 10 cars contained 400 tons of
soda, which was bought at saving
of Sl' average per ton compared with
local prices"
-Four hundred and sixty tons of soda
at saving of SIS per ton means 81
600 in the pockets of the cooperating
farmers. which otherwise would have
gone to middlemen dealers. This ia a
good answer to the question. "Does
cooperative buying pay!"
