From all reports the cotton yield in this section this fall will be extremely short. The reduction in acreage and in the use of fertilizer, the continued heavy rains, and the boll weevil have all wrought havoc with the crop. Many of the farmers say that there are millions of weevils at their destructive work in their fields now, while therp are others who state that they are not bothered with them. These latter say that in the early part of the season the weevil perched himself upon the little cotton and wait ed for the bloom to appear, but in time the pest became convinced that it was either leave or starve, so he left.

Georgetown, Aug. 7.?One day last week while going through a portion of Santee swamp, P. R. Lambert, a well known woodsman, same across a wild cat's lair. His dog gave the first alarm and as he came to the spot the dog seized an object which Mr. Lambert recognized as a baby wild cat. The little fellow had bravely shown fight, although not more than two weeks old and was soon killed by the dog. Just then Mr. Lambert saw two other little" wHd cats making away through the bushes and he and a boy 1 ' -1 J .. o-V. * Wlin mm gavy cuast: anu taugiu them. The mother wild cat had evidently slunk away at the approach of danger, leaving the little ones to their fate. Sjgns of her bed were there and the spot vras still warm where she had been with the kittens playing, about her. The baby wild cats are now in possession of Arthur Lambert, son of the finder, who says they will not be wild cats long as they are already getting, quite tame. He has them on his motor boat, where the writer saw them this afternopn. They are pretty little things, a male and a female of the species, with dull brown backs, spotted bellies and brindle faces. One would take them for sturdy kittens of a house cat until the bob tails sug- i gestive of the belligerent breed are seen standing out stiffly behind in fighting mood or stuck tight between their legs as they attempt to get away. The face is that of a tiger, striped like a tiger from the nose, % back and the paws and claws are much more formidable than those of the kitten of the tame cat. Young as they were when first caught, they were fierce feeders and would fight over a piece of raw meat, so they had to be fed apart. They seem quite domestic on the boat and run around playfully when no one is aboard ex cept uapt. L-amoeri ana uis nmie. rui safekeeping, however, they are eonfined most of the time in a soap box which is arranged neatly for their accommodation. Capt. Lambert says he expects to take them to Charleston on his next trip, where he may make some disposal of them, as it is likely the wildcat; nature may develon trouble for him on the boat when they grow larger, notwithstanding the good discipline he is now exacting of the little rascals. <1 IWI ? ?Miss Mary Francis Walker has rptjirnpfi to the eitv from St. Mat thews, where she has been the guest of Miss Vernon Hill.
