Profit In Potatoes.
Talked to a gentleman in Glover yes
terday about the raising Of sweet po-
tatoes.
81 raised about three hundred BUSH
els last year on little less than three
acres 1t was not good year for
sweet potatoes or should have gotten
a better crop. Saved the potatoes very
we'll in a potato house and retailed
most Of them at from 81 to sl.25
bushel.
Crop paid very well; but Of course
it would not take a great many pota-
toes to glut the Glover market to an
extent that would leave no profit in
the business"
Magnolia Gardens.
"Those Magnolia Gardens, down at
Charleston, famous the world over.
are beautiful sight Just at this time"
remarked Senator John Hart the other
day. Senator Hart has just returned
from Charleston, where he visited the
gardens. Great numbers Of people
not only from all sections Of South
Carolina, but from all sections OF the
country are visiting the gardens which
are at the height of their beauty just
now" the senator went on to say. 1.-THE
trip out to the gardens was about as
interesting to me as were the gardens
themselves. The Charleston county
chaingang is now working on that
road putting it in good shape"

Bill Rudisill, coachof the Glover
High School baseballsteafn is teaching
his team some, high moral principles
along with baseball" remarked a York
vile baseball fan this morning. Il
was struck with little Incident that
occurred during that twelve inning
game between Yorkville and Glover
here Tuesday afternoon. A Glover
player running from second to third
was called safe The field umpire
called him safe. Maybe the decision
was right and maybe it was wrong; but
the advantage was with the Glover
man because the jumps had made his
decision. Some Of the Yorkvile fans
and players raised a row about it.
Finally Coach Rudisill walked over
and had the man go back to second.
We want this game mighty bad,
boys he told his players, but we want
it fair and square and without any
doubts about it. And the Glover boys
agreed with their coach. 1t was big
thing TO do when the game was so
tight %
