The Carolina Exposition.

Elsewhere in this issue will be
found a complete account of the
Carolina Exposition to be held al
Charlotte in September. This bids
fair to be the biggest display of pro
ducts of the two Carolinas ever held
and is causing wide spread comment
and interest because Of the diversity
of the lines of exhibits. We would
like to see Chesterfield county repre-
sented there with full line Of our
farm products and Cheraw manu-
facturers could make splendid SHOW
ing and get results from the adver-
tisement, and at the same time give
Cheraw a boost. Our Board of Trade
could line these exhibits up and maf
hit for Cheraw-why not?

The Peach Industry.

The sand hills of North Carolina
in the vicinity of Hamlet, Hoffman
and Aberdeen have leaped into prom
inence recently because of this years
abundant yield of the peach crop and
prices being paid which make you
sit up and take notice when you fig
ure out the profit per acre, The re-
port is that talk around the hotels
at the above named places resembles
conversations heard in towns locat-
ed in the oil fields where fabulous
prices are paid for lands and whe
real estates changes hands some
times twice in one day. Think of
sand hill lands, the kind that has no
bottom to it, selling freely for $40 per
acre. Yet we understand this is the
case now in this peach growing sec
tion. Chesterfield county ought to be
intensely interested in the develop
ment nf this industry as We certain
ly have acres of uncultivated sand
hill lands that would grow as fine
peaches as could be found anywhere.
We understand from one who has in
vestigated that the following is about
5 the cost of getting an orchard to the
bearing period exclusive Of the price
Of the land based on 100 acre or
chard.
Clearing land 1st yelr
Der acre 5000
Breaking land and planting
per acre 600
Cost of tree per acre 1900
Fertilizer per acre 900
Spraying per acre 1000
Total cost first year per acre $4,000
Cost of spraying, plowing, etc
End year, per acre $500
Cost of spraying, plowing etc.
3rd year, per acre 25.OO
Cost of equipment, such as
tractor, truck, sprays, etc.
and buildings, per acre $4,000
Total cost of orchard to bearing
period, per acre $4,000
or an investment of $4,000 for
100 acre orchard.
Based on this years crop the third
years yield would be a round 200
crates per acre at an average price
Of $500 per, crate or s400 per acre.
OF course the older the orchard the
bigger the yield. One orchard in \.
c., is &c years old and still produc-
ing abundantly. The most distress
part of this gold producing industry
is that it takes consta1tshcarstal arr
painstaking work 12honths in the
year. 1t also tayes a knowledge of
the business, [any failures in the
peach industry are due to the lack
of these Two essentials which are as
necessary in this as in other busi-
nIsses. However we can't live with
in a stones throw of a section that
has walked up to the possibilities of
the sand hills and not reap some
benefit from their experience SO We
predict that in few years Chester
field sand hills will come into their
own. Good roads will be the first
step and then when its possible to
market this product the peach indus
try will put us on the map in capital
letters.

of such proportions that predIc-

Both sides had put forth their ut
most strength. Every newspaper in
the city was fighting the Thompson
ticket. and the public was thor
oughly aroused. The coalition
ticket carried 80 wards. and the
city hall won FIVE. The total vote
was near 5o0.OOO-a record for a
judicial election. Mayor Thompson
lost his own ward by 1000.

BERLIN, June 6.-From a high

ed that Gen. Henniker. commanding
the British troops in upper Silesia,
Is prepared for a general offensive
to put down the Polish insurrec-
tionary whenever the politicians say
the word. Gen. Henniker informed
his superiors that a surprise attack
is necessary, inasmuch as the Polish
insurgents are entirely out of kor-
fantys control and the danger of
the Poles destroying the mines and

ing him.
British authorities expect the at

tions.

Gen. Hoefer was warned that the

that he did not have the power to
withdraw German volunteers from
German districts until those terri
tories had been freed from the in

PECCY'S PAST LIFE
TRACED in VIRGINIA
Farmerville' Barber Reputed
As Father of Famous
Stage Beauty.

CHICAGO. June 6.-Attorneys for
Stanley Joyce, for Peggy Joyce. and
incidentally for the United States
government, are digging into the
antecedents of Peggy in an effort to
determine whether she is the over
sophisticated hunter of rich men or
the pIaything of fate.
Letters from people in Virginia
say that Peggy is the daughter of
Samuel b Upton, now barber in
Farmerville, Va, and that the fam
lily came to Farmerville when
Peggy, whose real name is Mar
garet, was a slip of a girl. They
had been living around Norfolk.
1t is claimed that Peggy's mother
was divorced from Upton and re-
married. 1t Is said she is now op-
Grating a rooming house.
Another development is the Mint
that Peggy may have been the
mother of two children, both dead.
There are intimations that both
were. the children of a man named
Archibald, whom she met in Colo
rado. She left him and returned to
Richmond, Va. saying her husband
had been cruel. According to the
story, she gave birth to a child in
her mothers home at Richmond
According to Mrs. Paul Archibald,
wife of a brother of Peggys first
husband, child was born to Peggy
in Salt Lake or Denver and is buried
in Denver
When Peggy's parents were di-
vorced she lived with her Grand
mother Sutton at Berkeley, Va.
Concerning her Jewels, in which
the customs officials are interested,
1t is said they have disappeared
since the government began its in
vestisation. On her last trip to
Chicago Peggy was wearing one of
her four ropes of pearls. a 32-karat
ring and the famous diamond and
sapphire bracelet.
