fc:..1- Ml HI . 'll'=CS? Will II Bullfrog* For Market K* Pag eland Knterpriae. Pageland, S> C.? Sept. -Since the excessive ruins have made cotton farming unprofitable and turned many hollows and depressions into lakes, the question of raising bullfrogs for market has been agitated around Pageland, and Mr. W. L. (Bill) Marze is reported to have taken steps to begin a first class bullfroggery. Not to be outdone or get behind with the times, Mr. Harney Price way in town the other day in interest of frog farm to compete with Mr. - Marze. Mr. Prke stated that he waa . about to land the grand-father frog of Clearwater lake. This frog is acknowledged to be of the purest blood, and is a direct descendant of the frog that churned the butter and escaped drowning. Clearwater Alfred Henry, es the amphibian has been named, Is a genuine South Carolina iodized frog, and has. the purest' and deepest "bass of any known frog, Nd 'doubt with this celebrated sire at the head of his herd, Mr. Price will sweep the largest fairs and shows, unless Mr. Marze, by a lucky break, has a frog that he has kept secret. This venture is being watched with great interest, and beta are about even as tc which will t.ake off the honors. At this writing the bull frog market is strong, and advanced several points last week, due to the disturbance in China. Frog legs were quoted at $1.67 on the Oharlotte market, where South Carolina iodine frogs were at a premium. Local experts claim that the market will go even higher, and predict that Mr. Price and Mr. Marze are on the road to becoming millionaires. Air Mail Pilot Killed.
