and with Tuesday opposite q. The
first days Of the II months are op-
posite the initials OF this sentence:
AT Dover dwell George Brown, Esq,

For the ordinary year the initial
days of the months. as above, are

MANNING TAX ES GAME
FROM SUNNI ERTON

Manning and Summcrton ball teams
opened six game series last Mon
day, playing the first game in Sum
merton. This was one of the prct-
clcSt games we have ever witnessed
IN Clarendon. Both teams playcd
hard, and we might say, several plays
were made that would do credit to y
professional team. A large crowd of
fans from each town were in attcn
dance to root for their home PLAYERS.
Everybody was in Il good humor, and
not single bit of unplcasantncss oc-
CURED to mar the pleasure Of the
AFTERNOON. Summcrton and Manning
nave always been hot base ball rivals,
though we must concedc that Sum
merton generally comes out ahead of
us. Summcrton is known far and
WIDE as Il town that turns out good
pail players, and with Fred Lanham.

together, and at the same time plav

beat. Fred Lanham who is manager
OF Summcrton is rated as one of the
best base ball leaders in the State,
However, the best can be beat some
times. Manning is using all hired men
except Senator Widcman, this is
necessary as we have no local players
mat can pay the class of ball de

MR.. MCDOWELL dCFADDIN'S
UP-TO-DATE FARM

The fine farm of Mcdowell McFad-
din was visited by representative of
this paper recently and Mr.. McFad-
din was asked to tell us a little about
things on his farm as they stood at
the present time.
The cotton, he said, wasn't so very
good. The boil wocvil seems to have
a pretty good hold on all cotton and
his is 10 exception.
His tobacco is growing fast and he
has begun to top it and no doubt he
will have fine crop.
AS for oats, Mr.. McFaddin said he
harvested a fine crop. He also has a
nice orchard and his early peaches
were very good bat the best ones will
come later on.
1t seems that he has more corn than
usual. In among his corn he has plant
cd velvet beans and he expects to have
plenty to feed his stock on and some
to sell.
He has bout four hundred and
sevcnty-five acres Of land but only
uses about one hundred and twenty
I've acres for his own use The rest
he has rented out to two men.
Around his beautiful home will be
found all kinds of flowers in pro-
fusion. 1t was indeed pleasure to
nave the opportunity to visit this love-
ly place.

PERTINENT REMARKS
ABOUT LIVE STOCK

One of our most promising money
crops in the future is hogs, and in
some cases possibly beef cattle NAV
be made a paying proposition. With
our climatic and soil conditions MAX
ing it practical to Craze our hogs
almost the entire year we can produce
pork very economically. It is of the
utmost Importance that we use good
stock II we expect them to make the
gains that they should, but the farm
cfs generally arc realizing this fact
ana one notes great improvedcnts
along this line. When our farmers
VIII grow the grazing crops for their
ihogs as they should, and will learn
now to iced balanced grain ration
along with their pasturcs, | believe
that we can produce pork as chcaplv
as any country anywhere
But when I have mentioned these
facts to farmers many of them have
come back at me with the statement
thac they can grow the hogs but thew
can't sell them. This is true if we
depend on local markets, for the local
markets can absorb only a very limit
ed amount of meat. On the other
hand we can sell our hogs ,and we can
sell them at the market price. 1t is
not necessary for us TO dump them at
prices that arc below their valuc
South Carolina has now shipped
enough hogs to the big markets to
demonstratc beyond question of a
doubt that this plan is practical and
the prices obtained have been salts.
