HUMBOLDT, TENN.
The Coming Convention OF the West
Tennessee Fruit and Vegetable
Growers Association.

Special Correspondence OF the Appeal
HUMBOLDT, January 24-This is to re-
quest that you give publicity to the ap-
preaching meeting of the West Tennessee
Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association
that meets at Humboldt the first Thursday
in February-its aims, objects, etc. From a
copy of the Farmer and Fruit Gr0ucr of Jan.
uary 10Th see thatfrom one station alone in
southern Illinois (Cobden) there was ship
ped 1872 carloads of fruits and vegetables.
There is no portion of the United States
removed from the Atlantic sea coast that has
the advantages that West Tennessee pos
sesses for the production of early vegetables
and fine fruits. Our apples equal those of
Western New Yo-h; on peaches equal any
grown anywhere, and for strawberries and
the early maturity of all the vegetables our
warm, moist climate, light, quick soil is e.
pecially adapted. Millions of dollars are
paid cut every spring by our wealthy
Northern neighbors for early vegetables and
fruits. Wesp Tennessee should enjoy
monopoly of the first pick
inss of this trade. Two splendid
railroads run North and South through our
borders. Two other 6rst-class roads give us
the markets of Ohio, Indiana and the Cam
adas. The mansgers of these roads are good
business men, and as this trade would come to
them 10 their dullest season, they, no doubt,
will give favorable freight rates and other
wise aid aud encourage the fullest develop
ment of this industry. We only need TO
properly avail ourselves of our natural and
artificial advantages to add several millions
of dollars yearly 10 our income. This is
exactly reversing the usual order of things
that is, bringing the money Southwark in
stead Of sending it Northwsrd. Every sta
tion, village and town in West Tennessee
along the Louisville and Nashville railway
is well located for this business. The first
important step, organization, is accom-
plished. The ball is in motion, and the
pioneers in the traces ask the cooperation of
all others interested throughout this end of
the State. We ask that you aid the cause by
inviting through your columns the attendance
OF all interested in growing, selling or hand
ling fruits, vegetables or flowers 10 meet with
us, cooperate with US, advise with US,

RAILROAD MORTGAGE.
The Memphis and Selma Road H ypoth-
coates Its Bonds.

The Memphis and Selma road yesterday
registered mortgage to the Guarantee
Trust and Safe Deposit Company Of Phila.
delphia. In accordance with q resolution
adopted April %. 1882, by the company, the
Importance was realized of this road ex-
tending from Memphis, via Holly Springs,
Through Mississippi to the western border
OF Alabama, a distance of about It's
miles, of which seventy.6ve miles is graded.
The necessity for fully building it was also
felt, 60 as to be in running order with as
little delay as practicable. To do this it
was necessary to obtain money by the sale
or other disposal of the first mortgage
bonds, and by the sale or disposal
OF the income bonds. 1t was there
fore resolved that the road seal and
deliver to the trust company $500 first
mortgage bonds of $1,000 each, to be dated
July l, 1882; also $500 of income bonds of
$1,000. This resolution was adopted by
$4,000 shares cast in its favor. The mort.
gage was drawn up in accordance with these
provisions
