This farm lies one quarter of q mile west of the school building and embraces an area of eighty acres well adapted for experimental pur- poses as well as for general farming.

the work unless provision is made for the expenditure of s6000,000'' and we submit that this is not a fair argument. or fair reason for refusing a reasonable appropriation. Nobody expects tho present Congress to make provision for all the future years. and nobody expects it to appropriate lump sum sufficient to complete the entire work. It Is work which will require years to finish. and all that is expected or asked is that an appropriation shall be made which will justify starting tho improvements on a scale commensurate with the import ance of the results. To appropriate small sum each year. barely sufficient to pay the engineers. is waste of money. Whether the work shall eventually cost six or sixteen millions of dollars it will be money we'll sptnt, and we hope the Senators and CnnSressmen from Ala bama will convince the Committee that tis chairman iS nct fu!ly informed about the Cocsa Rive:.

 The educational advantages of tht county are good. as are also facilities for the enjoyment of religious orship. The means of transportation are conve- ntent. The Louisville and Nashville hall road runs through the county,-a branch of which terminates in Wetump Sa, N k,le in the eastern end the Western Ri.ut ad Is sufficiently near to be quite acce. s,ble. The Coosa River furnishes another cheap means of transportation to Montgomery an1 Ssima upon the Alabama ii e. and the cities upon the Southern coast.
 Lands may be had from $1.50 to SIS per acre In the county. The Government owns 5000 acres of land subject to entry.
 The city government has been wisely and economically administered and that policy is to be continued by the splendid body just elected and inducted into the office as follows: Mayor, F. B. McCas- key; Couneilmen, J. R. Gamble, J. M. Jenkins. H. II. Robinson, D. D. Askew, Alex Kelly. Walter Thomas All of whom have plenty of public spirit and enterprise to make the town grow and prosper.
