And throw their arms out wide, In sheltering the place they guard, Which we look 011 with pride.

Three days of last week Elberton and Abbeville crossed bats on the Abbeville diamond and at the wind up the scores stood as follows: Tuesday afternoon two and two; Wednesday 0 to 2 favor Abbeville; Thursday 7 to 0 favor Elberton. From the above, it seems to us, the odds fire III liivorui Wit; vmilliiK lvuiii, nv/nviu, there was till round good playing by both teams and the crowds who witnessed the games were under great excitement as cheer after cheer rent the air.

Mr. Andrew Penney litis enjoyed his fifteen days off and is back on route one serving his patrons as faithfully as ever. Mr. Eugene McMillan, the polite and attentive carrier on route two, is now enjoying his fifteen days holiday and Mr. Jack Ferguson is doing the trick on route two. Jack is a hustler and makes a splendid carrier. Head the "cut sale" prices now offered by our merchants and you will know where to get bargains and stive money. There's nothing like "printer's ink" to help out dull times, especially in the mercantile business. If you Are sitting around fanning and lighting Hies, just take a dip and try it. The many friends of our townsman, J. Fraser Lyon, Attorney General of South Carolina, are. proud of lus "clean" record and those well informed appreciate* fully his savings to the State, his tracking down "grafts" and running to the wall the liquor business; and tire now jubilant over the manner and up-to-date style he is doing up II B.

Major Parker was a welcome visitor in the city last Monday. On last Saturday afternoon the colored ^people were enjoying a ball game in Watson's pasture, and were getting on nicely and having a pleasant time when suddenly their pleasure was turned into sadness by a quarrel between Robert Hovey and Harry Carson over the cursing of Robert Hovey, and .most abusive language to Carson, in the presence of their wives and daughters, whereupon Carson remonstrated kindly and received in return vile epithets resulting in Carson's death by a blow from a rock thrown by Robert Hovey, who gave himself up and is now in jail. 'Tis said Hovey was drinking at the time. Crops along route 3 are looking fine, being well worked and generally clean of grass. Corn is very line and everything is flourishing. All through the Sharon section and down to tho Charleston road was visited last Sunday afternoon by a line rain. r A curiosity?a freak of nature?not in "Atlanta" this time, but at Lebanon, S. C., was shown us last Saturday by Mr. Zig Edwards, who farms on the Gibert plantation. It was a perfect- "right hand" with "four lingers and one thumb" formed in a roasting ear, with hand slightly closed, and a well rounded arm back to the elbow. It was a "perfect hand" and fore arm as , could 1.K5 traced by an artist and was indeed a "curio" worth saving. Ice cream will oe served at tlie iiome 01 Mr. James Gilliam on next Friday night.

To the Editor of thf Press and Banner; Dear Sir: There are lots of things here that strike the ordinary American as remarkable. Of these I think''the first is . the .remarkable regularity in the appearance of the fields and forests. The lines t are as clear cut an J as straight as those of an inlaid checkerboard, Here is a f quadrangle of wheat; next to it is a quad- ^ rangle of barley, then one of clover, and and then one of potatoes, and so on, each c plot being the same shape and size, usually containing about a half acre. This part of Germany (Hesse) is quite hillv: and to ouote 1'rom a German profes ser, there is hardly any sight to be" imag-! ined more beautiful than these emergingfrom-behind-one-another-like-the-slde-cur t tains-of-a-theater hills. They are all for- a est dad. Fir trees are predominant, but C there are some pines and cedars and a few oaks. And dense? it would be saying \ little to assert that a crow couldn't fly a through some of these forests. I don't believe a small boy could fallout of one of \ these trees, even on the Seventh day. so 1 thick are the boughs. I believe the Germans have written more fairy talcs and f stories of goblins and witches and gnomes t and dwarfs and giants than any other people. It is the natural thing. It would p make anyone think of this elfland folk to t walk through one of these forests. Wljen you come out from between two n walls of "trees into an opening there is in o sight on the top of every prominent hill the ruins of some old robber baron's cas- S tie, with walls four, five, eight feet thick ii^piaces. There is usually a long climb I to make before you get to one of the ruins, v but you may be sure that the view is always best from here. The robber barons C knew their business, and they chose v places for their castles where no one could look down 011 them, From# one of these h castles an express train seems hardly to move so great is the distance they com- h maud. On the hills are always the forests, the cutting of which i? regulated by gov- s ernment supervision. Iu the valleys and s] 011 the gentle slopes are grain and pota4-s? /.rnnc Thflrn ic nnf nnv wocf-a offiillnu,' tt land. The Germans seem to know how to make the most of all the square feet of fi soil they have. There is no "brag-patch" c; that makes better wheat than the field ii around it. but the heads go up all togeth- 1 er. It is like a garden. . If there is anything more pleasant than to walk along one of these macadam roads among such fields and forests, it is to stop T and rest. Thp best place to stop is at one of the wayside inns. The wayside inn like tmost of the houses you see, is a peculiar <y construction of which we do not see much at home. The building is framed of stout beams just the thickness intended for the b walls and the interstices filled in with ^ brick, or mortar work of different kinds; 0( so that you see the framing from the outside. Frequently the mortar is plastered a over and the smooth surface thus present- ? od offers an irresistible temptation to the _ artistically inclined builder, who sketches _ thereon all sorts of scenes. For example n the kitchen wall may have a plate of pota- j, toes painted here, a few links of sausage ^ there and a stein of beer between. All of r which, however delightfully picturesque it may be. is entirely unnecessary/ from the 8 point of view of advertising; for when you u are closo enough to appreciate this art, v the sound of moving-kitchen-furniture in- v 1 ,1 4 I. A .r-9 ' blUU Uliu Lllo UUUi tilings UUUHU1K V* III U draw out any man's six or seven cents for a cup of coffee and some bread and butter, or cake. You eat out of doors of course if the .weather is not bad. This is one of the most pleasant features of the inn. The Germans have more poetry in them than any people in the world. You agree to this statement when vou see that they are so full of it they write it on the wails. Thus you see amoug the exterisr decorations "a sentiment like this copied from the walls of an inn: Its beauty is its cleanliness, Your pleasure is its happiness, Its piety its blessing. Of course it looks better in German, and sounds better too. Let's make one other trial. This is a sentiment which some moralizing architect put up under the eaves of his ltouse : If this house should chance to stand Till hate and envy leave the land, Then it will last till Judgment's blast. And so with numbers of these houses, especially the ones more or less old fashioned. lours truly, Th? Ordinary American. W. A.

Six Thousand Deaths and Six Millit Dallars of Expense Monthly Chai^ab With, Utile Pest?Every Door ai Every Wimdow Should be Screened. (Anderson Mail.) Tho little germ that is murdering1 abo COO people annually in South (Jarolin causing about 6,000 to l>e seriously ill, th is causing much study, anil costing ti state per year, in loss of life, loss of tim burial expenses, medicines, doctor's bil and other incidentals, more than $?,00( 000, to say nothing of the misery, sadnei and worry, is very instructively discuss* in a bulletin recently issued by the sta board of health. The germ is the typhoid fever germ ar its most valuable assistant is the commc house fiy. "One of the greatest agencies in tl spread of typhoid fever is the fly," saj tlie bulletin, "and so well established i this fact, that the fly is frequedtly calk the typhoid fly." Discussing the spread of the disease < typhoid fever it is stated that in the lai icw ycurs liihl il hus ueeu iuuuu uiat i; phoid fever may bo and, in fact is, spreii by what is known as the "typhoid carriei ?the carrier being a person who has hs typhoid fever and apparently regains his health, though still harbors the gern in an active state in his intestinal auc. ur nary tract. It is stated that several epid mics have been traced to this soarce. "From the foregoing," says the bulieti] "it requires no imagination to see thi there are many ways in which the typhoi baccillus, when at large, may get into 01 bodies, and yet it would not seem &z. in possible task to prevent him from gettin at large." The following rules are askod by th state board of health to be remembered That typhoid is a catching disease. That it is a preventable disease. That it is caught by taking somethin ntothe mouth. That it is prevented by not allowing foo md drink to become poisoned. That the only way to stomp out typhoi ever and prevent its spread is to destro he ererms as they leave the bodv. That the fly is responsible for many cast >f typhoid fever. WARRENTON. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Pope and children rt urned to their home in Greenville Monda iter a weeks visit to Mr. and Mrs. B. ft Cheatham.

Th lagnitude of the industry can perhaps b est understood when it is. considered tha hose cows produce yearly about $1,000, 00,000.00 worth of dairy products.
