Admitting that he had been in the market "occasionally' as a speculator he declined to name his brokers or reveal tho lump sum of his long or short lines on any given day. He defended speculations in grain* and the marketing machinery which makos it possible because the far- . mer is afforded an opportunity to sell his produce on any day in an open market.

Really, J the score should have been 19 to 0 but Ray Sweetie fumbled in the last' quarter on the 35 yard line and Due ] West recovered making a touchdown! by the streak of luck. Several times' the Due West boys came dangerously near scoring before the last quarter, but the Abbeville boys held' them for downs at the crucial mo- j ment. Abbeville, too, had three oth-j er opportunities to score when they 3id not, the Due West lads stiffenng and holding for downs. The visitors had it all over1 the lome eleven when it came to passing, Davis for Due West being the best' sasser seen here lately ^on a high' school team.

WEATHER PROPHET TALKS OF WEATHER Says Winter Will Be a Cold One, Snow Likely to Fall:?Fro?t Due This Month. A cold winter with at least one slow is the prediction of W. P. Hou seal. Dutch weather prophet of Columbia. Mr. Houseal discusses the weathor at length in the following 1 from the Columbia State. The prolonged drought has no doubt brought an apprehension that it would continue, throughout the fall and winter, However, conditions which prevailed September 23-29 indicated precipitation during the winter to provide sufficient soil moisture for the sowing and germinatting of the grain crops. These indications have already been apparent in the abundant rain which has broken .the drought. The drought had some remarkable features It prevailed over the whole country and was broken by rainfall simultaneously in the regions of the lakes and gulf. The change was apparent Thursday at noon when the wind, which had been from the east nearly three Weeks moved to the south in the upper atmosphere, yet it still continued from the east in an exceedingly low stratum barely above the height of a three-story building. There was never any doybt at sun se<t Wednesday that this section would foe visited within 72 hours by rain. The principle in meteorology which governs these conditions is as old as the earth itsalf. The last wind had deposited a tremendous amount of moisture in the upper atmosphere and as the high pressure-changed to the lower form it met a response in a like condition coming from the Carrrbean sea and the south wind gradually absorbed the east wind by rising above it. This was clearly indicated a week before the direct change occurred as oil the clouds which were observ ed at all came from the gulf. Usually, under normal conditions such an east wind as prevailed during the latter part ofSepteanber, would rain within one-tenth of the time as was the case during the recent drought. It is ve<ry probable that about October 23 a disturbance of great in tensity will prevail in the gulf and its courso be northeastward and along the south Atlantic coast. In addition the same conditions observed September 22-29, indicate a colder winter than last year. Tho next period for lowest of the season will occur about October 15. This will be the central date, and one frncf -tirill fKroo /love A.1 V/S7W TV AAA WVWWA VAVAiVl WUJ W ahead or after this date. It will not be a killing frost. Nature is a great protector of its products and observation of certain fanna show that frost this early will prevent their full growth and bloom. So for, however as crops are concerned, the drought has had the same effect as killing frost would have produced at this period of the year. At least one heavy snow will occure during the winter south and east of the Blue Ridge, and indications are such that Columbia will be in its path While it is not easy to forecast the date of a snow than 30 days ahead of time, it has been my purpose to say that in this annual forecast snow will occur about the Jate of tho solistice, December, 20. rHE STANDARD OIL WINS IN SUIT FOR OVER A MILLION Columbia, Oct. 10.?A verdict for the defense was returned at ? o'clock Saturday night by a Richland jury in the case of Williams against the Standard Oil company, in which the father of Madeline Williams, little girl of Lexington :ounty died because of injuries revived by his daughter from the explosion of a kerosene lamp.
