that a considerable |Mm-entage of the
cotton crop will be lost iM'fji h st? it will

not cover tlio .coat of picking ami gin

It.ss ?>r the money to tllfi farmer*, vvUti
cannot got back the cost of ] *ro<t lid ion
hut there is the economic loss of the
cbij on -itself. Tlii! logical proposition
is, of- course, for the farmers to plant
Im eOttOU during tin- coming year.
'Mu ?re is iki use in producing more tluin
the market can absorb. Many of tho
Inrgor planters luivo bound themselves
to a r>o oer cent acreage reduction, but
the sjnalh'i phithicipri cannot he de
pended upon to adopt any such policy.
Tin' probability Is that these smaller
farmers will as usual plant every nere
for which they can obtain fertiliser
ami seed. Some, of them will do It be
cause they do not know how to do any
tiling else. Others will do It froiu
greed, In the expectation of taking ad
vantage of the short crop likely to bo
caused b\ others refraining from
planting, The actual reduetlon in nere
age will In all prbahlUty be regulated
by credit coluli t ions rather than vol
notary act inn by the farmers, although
such action will nave to be taken into
consideration. I'nless the price of cot
tun 'advances rapidly within the next
two or three months, there is sure to
be a material reduction in acreage for
the coining crop.
Wlui t the farmers should real I \ do
for their own salvation is to, reduce
the acreage sown to cotton and to
plant foodstuffs. A little intelligent di
versification of crops would solve
many of the cotton farmer's problems.
There arc scientifically managed plan
tations in the South that are- practical'
ly self-containing, for the addition to
cotton they raise corn and wheat, hogs
and sheep. If the fanners can be. ed
ucated along those lines It will he
greatly to- their advantage.
Sumter Negro Murders His Wife
l.lner ( >;* vi>f. a negro of the Khiloh
nelghltorhood, was brought to Sumter
lliis morning by Uural Office r l?'rler
son and lodged in the county jail for
murdering his wife.
Tlie murder took place at the. negro
house after a quarrel between Davis
and his wife. Davis stated that he
had not been a hie. to make very much
money, however he hud brought home
soino rations to his wife, which It
seemed she did not think enough. The
two had some words which brought on
a scufflle. Wife gral*bed an axe and
struck at Davis, who dodged and then
in some way got in possession of the
axe himself, striking the woman with
the butt ??f It in the back of her head,
lie stated that he did not intend to
kill his wife qnd that he had no ideii
t hat- he had hit her so hard. The. ne
gro woman was instantly killed.
Davis hud previously served a sen
tence on the chaingang and while ser
ving his term, lost his hearing as n
result of an attack of influenza. Da
vis stated that his wife was very much
stronger than lu*. owing t<? his re<*ent
sickness'. He said that during the
fight his wife had choked him so that
he could hardly breathe.* Davis is
a dark negro of about 140 pounds,
and is about _'t> years old.? Sumter

"Freckles" ?
"Freckles" comes to the Camden
opera House February 14th. Those
who have read (Tone Stratton-l'orier's
famous novel of the same title, and
they number In the millions, will be
even more delighted with this charm
ing song play which exhales all the
fragrance and romance of the great
Indiana Limberloatt. It is not only the
light of an Inspiration, but- it is one
of the most realistic and picturesque
productions of modern stagecraft, for
the beauty of nature and the breath
of romance are found In the story.
You must know Freckles, the little
; red -headed homeless waif so mauy peo
ple all over the world have read about.

in whom nature seems to have hlend

mother and endowed him with nil the
gifts at her command. In him will l>e
