FINE CROPS IN SUMTER
SEEM THE PROSPECT.
Outlook at Present Highly
Pleasing.
Hundreds ol Sumter’s thrifty farm
ers came to Amerlcus yesterday up
on business, and from all of them
■were heard expressions of hope and
confidence regarding the crop outlook
and farmers are getting ground
ready as never before, and every
farm is a beehive.
The acr.age in Sumter will be no
greater than last year, a fact due
to the unusually high price of meat
labor and fertilizer.
Mere corn will be planted than last
year, and many farmers will contest
for the prizes offered.
Very little planting has been done
yet, as the ground has been too
cold, but it has been a particularly
fine time for ploughing and getting
the ground in readiness.
Last year on account ol the ex
treme drought, which had preva led
all the winter, the ground was very-
hard and dry, and in some portions
'of the county it was hard to do much
ploughing especially where there was
much clay in the soil.
And while there has not been a
great deal of rain this winter there
•has been sufficient to keep the ground
moist, end there has been no trouble
in breaking it up.
In some sections of the county a
good deal of new ground has been
taken in which was ne- nr used re-
fere, land cleared by tic turpentine
and timber men. and judging from
this, many farmers are enlarging
their operations and preparing to
farm on a larger scale.
There will be a good deal of In
tensive farming, too, and a good
many .Sumter county farmers will try
for the premiums offered.

New York, February 14.—Miss
E.eanor Butler Alexander, whose en
gagement to Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.,
has just been announced, told how
she first met the son of the ex-pres-
Ident and how she came to care for
him. The interview, given at her
home, was her first, and she came
through with Hying colors.
• Why do you love Mr. Roosevelt?”
was the first question asked .Miss
Alexander.
She halted a moment, blushed pret
tily, and then said:
•We.l—well—1 guess. maybe—I
think—it’s because he’s so brilliant!
He has such a great future, I am
sure.”
"How long have you known Mr.
Roosevelt?"
• Only two years," was the answer.
"I met hint first at a house party at
the home of Mrs. Arthur Dodge m
Simsbury, Conn. Then I didn't see
him again for quite a while—until we
renewed our acquaintance at the In
auguration ball of Mr. Taft in Wash
ington.’’
“But you have seen him often
since?”
This question was answered by-
Mrs. Elisha Fulton, an aunt.
"Almost every week,” she said. "At
least ever since he has been work
ing in Hartford, for he has nearly al
ways come over Sunday so that ne
could see Eleanor.”

"Is there anything special which
you think may have drawn you and
Mr. Roosevelt together. Miss Alex
ander ”
“Music. You know he Is very fond
of it—and so am I. We talkod of it
a great deal at first, and I played
for him—”

where I was for six years—"
“And finished with honors,” adedd
Mrs. Fulton.
"You know your future father-in-
law well, of course?"
“Not very well,” said Miss Alexan
der. "But I want to know hint bet
ter—and 1 want him to like me. Ethel
has been one of my most Intimate
friends for a long time, and I am
very fond of her mother, whom I
came to know quite well when I was
their guest at Oyster Bay In Novem

hope to be among ’those present’

Some Wedding Details.
Mrs. Fulton supplied some of the
first details that have been thought
out for the wedding.
"Miss Ethel Roosevelt will be one
of the bridesmaids,” said the auni.
"and Miss Elizabeth Betron, Eleanor's
most Intimate friend, who is engaged
to Mr. Fahnestock."
Evea some of the close friends of

nouncement of the engagement whl:h
was made Suturday by Mrs. Henry
Addison Alexander, the mother of the
young woman.
Young Mr. Roosevelt, who, was at
Mrs. A'exandcr’s house in the even
