Glover, April 6-V. @. Hambright,
secretary and treasurer Of the Clover
Peanut Growers Association has or
dered $50 bushels of peanuts which
members of the association will plant
this year. The peanuts ordered for
seed are the White Spanish variety
end are expected to be received here
within the next few days. The asso-
ciaticn has about twenty-five men,
bcrs all Of whom are anxious TO give
peanuts a try-out and Secretary
Hambright said that inquiries are be-
ing received daily as to whether or
not the peaAuts had been received
The secretary said that all members
of the association would be notified
as soon as the peanuts arrive IN or
der that as little delay as possible will
be had in getting them in the ground.
According to Mr.. Hambright, more
farmers than usual will devote some
acreage to the cultivation Of sweet
potatoes this year. Farmers Of the
Glover section have been in the habit
for a number Of years Of paying a
great deal Of attention to potatoes;
but the indications are that they are
going in for potatoes on a much larg-
er scale this year than formerly.
It is estimated here that farmers of
the surrounding country have bought
at least 40 per cent. less fertilizer this
year than they did last and last years
supply was reduced about 40 per cent.
as compared with the former year.
The great majority Of those farmers
who have bought fertilizer this year
have paid cash for it, the practice of
selling it on "time" having almost dis
appeared here. .r
Cotton Sales Brisk.
Much cotton has been sold on the
Glover market during the two weeks
prior to this week. In fact until about
Monday the local buyers had been
kept pretty busy. Most of the cotton
sold was in the hands of farmers Of
the community who had 1t stored on
their farms and the sales included
very little taken from the Glover
Warehouse which is still packed to
about its capacity. 'l
Glover Mill Closes.
The Glover Mill shut down Wednes-
day afternoon and will remain closed
until Monday morning, 1t is stated.
There is a probability that the mill
i will be run on half time schedule for
some time to come. The Hawthorn
Mill on the southern end Of town con-
tinues to run full day time while a
portion of the machinery Is also be-
ing operated at night. This mill, 1t
was learned Wednesday, has plenty
of orders to keep it going and at the
| present time there Is no indication
that it will be necessary to curtail
roduction-certainly not in the near
future.
Glover High Wins.
Winthrop Training school baseball
of Johnny Walker, high school pitcher
extraordinary in a game here Tuesday
afternoon and Glover found 1t an easy
matter to take the visitors in tow to
the the tune of 16 to 0. In fact, only
thirty one batters faced young John
during the sided exhibition, and Of
this number twenty-one took three
swats each at the air. Winthrop
was credited with one scratch hit.
On the other hand the Glover play
ers slammed the pill at will, bat
ting honors Of the day going to Hogue
and Maxwell who were credited with
home runs. Glover High goes to
Great Falls Saturday for a game with
team representing that town.
Coaches Rudisill and Cochran Of the
high school team took the lads to Cas-
tonia Wednesday afternoon to see an
! exhibition game played between the
Buffalo team of the International
League and the Charlotte club Of the
South Atlantic league. The game
which was described as a regular
farce was won by the New Workers.
