In denying the statement of Oov.
Hli'UHO that BOtneliody would draw out
of the race for the senate, Mr. Pollock
made a mathematical calculation. Mr.
JonningB had already declared that he
is In the nice to the. finish and Mr.
Pollock stated that lt? njld Senator
Smith had compared notes and had
learned tjjiat neither of them would
pull out of the race. "Then," said
Mr. Pollock, "there h only one left,
and that Int Governor Bleasc und If
ho doesn't quit the race he will Buroly
loose that 9300 that he paid as his
entrance fee."
Before leaving the city Lang D. Jen
nings stated lSBt night his admiration
f..~ * >. ..< ~* ?-..!?....,., Un llaolltMll
.w. X.tt.f V.? w
that what this city needs is a com
mission form of government of the
kind they have in Sumter where he is
the mayor. 1 That city employs a
manager to look after all of Its af
fairs, just as a bank employs a cash
ier. With reference to hlF race for
the senate, Mr. Jennings t'ated that
he has hopes of getting into the sec
ond race although tie admits that ut
present two other candidates ore .run
ning Btronger than ho. He urges the
people to enroll their names on the
now club rolls or they will not" get
the chance to vote. He has been In
formed that there is more laziness
about this in the cities than in the
country, end he'is Inforn*-* also that
lb the mill villages the managers^of
the mills are posting Bigns and doing
everything they, can to' remind the
operatives that.they must enroll.
, The Allen Emm er son case was
brought into the campaign yesterday
for.the first time. Mr. Jennings refer
red to. the fact that Emmerson had
killed an aged man in defense of his
home and that Emmerson had been
found guilty by a'Jury of Anderson
citizens. Mr. Jennings made the
statement that the governor had nul
lified the work of about 15,000 petit
jurors and about an etiu&l number of
grand jurors.
Mr. Pollock, in one of his heavy
prods, declared that Governor Bleasc
had started the negro question in the
campaign,'and yet Mr. Pollock is in
formed that the governor declined to
give r* job as chauffer for his car to
a white bey, a mill operative . of
Green vil le, and has made as his chauf
fer, a negro, Harrison Neoly, who
broke the speed laws in doli, aabla and
was given a pardon by tho governor
when lie was fined by the city courts
of tho Capital City, where the citizens
of the whole state go at times. "It
makes a lot of difference whose 'nig
ger* it 1b" said Mr. Pollock.
_l
During Mr. Jennings' speech some
said "You Will never get to Washing
ton." to which' he replied: "I will get
there just HMe Colle did anyway. Ho
wont thore six months ago and picked
out his seut. but he will never get
thore again."
-?
Mr. Jennlqgs' splendid open counte
nance and Mr. Pollock's flashing eyes
were points remarked upon by per
sons in the big crowd.
Senator Smith came back at Mr.
Pollock with a vengeance. The gen
tleman- from chesterfield had been
twitting Senator Smith about being
a man of one idea. The senator, in
a fine'burst of oratory declared that
he is glad to have one idea, because it
Is a big one, so big t .at if it over got
into his yoUng friend's head it would
spill open with apoplexy. 1
Handshaking Is a costly thing for
the candidates. They need all or their
r?serve force. At Abbeville- r.oL_.o four
hundred peuple crowded uronml tho
stahtl tb speak* to Mr. Pollock, who
was the laet speaker. To shako his
hand was an hour rifterwards. Sena
tor Sni'tii had ? ?iulll&r i-Xjnn ieiici:
here yesterday, the people crowded up
at the conclusion of his speech, which
was one of the most eloquent of bis
wholto life. The senator has been
very boarso and was under'treat ment
of a specialist' here yesterday.

a The general estimate of tho crowd
here yestrds/ was about 8,600. The
police of th'j city were on hand to pre
serve or dor, but their presence was
hardly needed, as everything passed
off in a,'lively manner.
Mr. Jennings Mads a great hit wltb
ode point. He declared that he had
never done my thing to elect Blease,
and yet would withdraw from the
race if even the rankest Bleasfto in
Sumter county would say anything
against Mr. Jennings. He said that

The governor yesterday followed the
lines of what lb culled his "St. Mat

circulated all over the state. It Is
very interesting reading. The gover

Among the persons occupying seats
of honor on the speaker's stand were

jAtlanta, July 13?- If a bill Inirodu
cqd^,hy0Hon, Grov?r Edmondson of
Btoo^s county, becomes a law, Geor
gia farmers will bavo protection tn the
advancement of money or suppllca to
tenants and others. The law is
very necessary one, especially since
tho government has held that "peon
ago" covers the simple matter of at-,
tempting io Torce fuyaient of juBt
debts.
Tho Edmondson bill Is lntonded to
correct the defect pointed out tn a de
cision of. tho court of appeals which
held that where a farm laborer pro-,
cures an advancement on his contract
to perform services and works only a
few days and quits, that ho crime has
been committed.
The Edmondson bill requires th?
person to whom van advance Is made,
to fulfill his entire contract. Unless
he does so criminal prosecution can be
had against him on the vtound of
fraudulent Intention to defraud- the
party advancing supplies Or. money.
Farmers who employ negro labor

many thousands of dollars have been

What'One Grower of Peaches In the
[ 'u. Hand Hills Is Doing.
(Browning Frix, in The Southern
Pines Tourist.)
The other day your, correspondent
interviewed Mr. Mcl. Kennedy, the
famous peach grower of Eagle
Springs..
This year Mr. Kennedy has sold
$14.87 worth of poaches from' one
jtr??., This tree Is 16 years old an.
has-borne'11 cropR. It began to boar
the third year and has. missed one
crop since, on account of hall. Mr.
Kennedy says that in order to bo ouc
cossful with peaches one must plant
on a high ridge and not on low
ground. Any land on a levol with,
the railroad from Candor to. Pine
hurst'ie above the "frost line" and
he prefers slightly rolling land with,
bluffs near the orchard,, so that-, there
will be "air drainage." It is said
that air will drain'down a hill just
as'wator will,..and when tho wind is
blowing there can-ho no frost.
It is necessary. too, to spray the
trees about four tunes a year-and to
fertilise and cultivate,- them. A' good
idea is to plant cotton between, tbe
rows of treeB for the first three years
as they will flourish oh the trehtmopt
that cottoh get if and . then there ~*ta
some money In raising cotton.'.
Last year Mr. Kennedy sold
$661.69 from one aero of peaches.
This acre.and tw'o others Were plant?
ed In April. 1009, all .different varie
ties'. Ho did not do,so well wlt""s.one"
acre last year; it;: g?tlng ' him only
$178. The, fourth year thlB three
acre orchard hotted Mr. Mac. ? 1,107
Ho has been chipping since the 14th
of June . and .Dis nrst shipments j
brought $3 a" crate, or $1 a . peck In
Washington. Sln?o then.be has got-J
ten. as vhigh as $4 a crate. Elber tasf
will ripen lb abbot! two weeks, and
Mr. Kennedy sayV ho always tfceit
fancy prlcea for this variety. Mr
Kennedy has planned his orchards so.
that be can handle the shipments With
p. comparatively small forco of hands
during the shipping season t-.nd keeps
the hands busy from early in June un
til the laie peaches are gone.

Clemson College, July 14.?There ^ i
aro not enough,silqs in South Carolina ?
not more than 226 in the entire state*;
while Wisconsin, for example, has 46,-1
000. iu [
Twenty of the Silo's decided ad van- i
tagea have been compiled by R. H i
Mason, .dairyman of the U. S. Bu-S
reau of Animal Industry, co-operat- j,
ing with Clemson College. Thoy.show ,,
why there should be more siloB in y
South Carolina. j ; "
1. By the uso of a silo a succulont .
feed may be provided the year round, j
keeping up the milk flow of dairy cat- ;
tie and fattening beef cattle, . >
'2. Silage Is the best, and cboapest .-;
form in which to'provide this sort of
food for winter use. ';' " ?.
5. Silage- keeps cattle In more ( ^
thrifty condition than Other feeds. ,*
4. Silage has'a b?n?ficiai effect on :
the digestlvo organs of cattle.
6. The. same acreage devoted to t
a silage crop will support more cattle ?
than it would' if devoted to hay or?"
other roughage. ' :
6. The acreagei for pasture may be ,
greatly' reduced xwhen silage, is fed ,
throughout the year,' bringing more '
land Into cultivation. v 1 < 1
7. Growing silage leaves land c?rar
early in the season for fall and winter j
crops. " r?
8. The silage system helps main- .'
tain soil fertility and build up run
down 'soils. f ,' \
r .9. On the same, acreage, two cows
can -be kept by feeding silage at the' '
cost of one cow fed on hay or other
TOiighngo. - - f - ;
, '10. Silage pay . be harvested Ih '
wet weather and when conditions are -
such that other crops could not be "
harvested without a total loss.
- IT.' Green feed In the form o'f 8il- v
age can be fed in summer to great ad-vi'
; vantage , in seasaons when pastures
jbave dried up. 1'*.: '<;
12. Feed storage In silos is much - ' \
cheaper than In hay. barns, because a ' '
ton of silago requires less than half
i the space reanired^by a ton of hay; ,
j is. An acre of corn can be placed1,
