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. Tli-re Is Relief for Women.

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.
