During the week just past the
Kingstree Baseball team has undergone
a considerable shaking up. as
a result of which several of the men
who were with the organization
since its inception have been released
and several new players engaged.
Those suspended were MessrB Biel,
manager; Betsill and Gordon, pitchers,
and Ehrman, catcher. The new
additions to the team are Messrs
Earl Cook, pitcher, and James of
Summerton, who hslds down first
base. The management of the team
was placed in the hands of "Heinia"
Hewell, the Red Sox short stop.
The trouble came about over the
playing of too many class C and D
nsen ?that is, men who have played
professional ball. The rules of the
Pee Dee association allow only three
such nsen to a team and it developed
recently that the Red Sox were
nlavinc more than that number.
On account of this disregard of the
rules sf the association about all of
the games won by the Kingstree
club were thrown out by the president
and board of directors, thus
placing the Red Ssx percentage at
the wind up of the first half of the
series at just a fraction above nothing.
The "shake-up" took place
last Friday while the team was away
playing at Lamar, as at that time
the local managers were informed
of the action of the board of directors
at Florence on the previous
Thursday.
At Lamar the Red Sox were defeated
two out of three games.
Monday a series of three games
opened on the home grounds against
Big Bens of Bennettsville, which re
suited in favor of the latter, the
Red Sox dropping the first game by
a score of one to three. Tuesday it
rained and yesterday adoubls header
was played, said to be the prettiest
games played on the home diamond
during the season, the first game resulting
in a score of one to nothing,
the visitors making a run in the ninth
inning. The second game, seven innings
by agreement, stood one to
nothing, the visitors scoring in the
fifth inning.
The Red Sox are playing at Florence
today.
An Attractive Plantation.
Last week we had the pleasure of
a trip to the farm ofMrF W Fairer
about four miles southeast of Kingstree.
We made the trip in his handsome
new Hudson super-six and at
times clipped off the distance at the
rate of 55 miles per hour, and this
without the least jar or jolt and the
engine making no more noiae than a
high-claaa sewing mathine. As to the
big farm, one eat see at a glance
that out of a wilderness a veritable
garden of Eden has sprung. To accomplish
this has taken brains, energy
and money, the liberal ase of
which is to some extent to be remunerated
by the raatfields of corn,
cottoa,tobacco, peanuts,relret l>eans
and field peas, all rich in color and
growth and free from graso and
wefrds. In addition to the apleadid
cropa, coming beautifully to natu-ii~

we watched the pigs and hcgs scamper
back to the woods when they
; found there was no food for them,
' that they had only been called for
mere inspection.
Mr Fairey has realized the impor- j
tance of ditching his vast plantation, \
and this invaluable work is at regular i
intervals, just as the work of clear-j
i ing off and opening up new areas is j
carried on, and in this way hundreds |
: of acres of apparently worthless!
swamp land have been converted into
fertile fialda. The farm ia well
