A corpulent old 'cullud lady, was
= passenger on an /. G. train one day
last week. There was no blase on
her expression, and 1t was plainly evi-
dent that she was unused to travelling.
When she arrived at her station, she
did not rise from her seat until her
train was pulling out, and by the
time she reached the door OF the car
it was under good headway OF speed.
Acting upon the impulse OF q desper-
ate moment, she jumped with all her
might, and landed upon the gravel
platform in sitting posture with a
loud but helpless kerfop. She was
speechless with modification and
anger for a few seconds; then she took
quick survey of the surroundings,
and gave vent to her feelings in the
following language: Foh Gawd! ii
dis wuz white lady, she'd sue dis
cumpney fob mawnin!" The exclama-
tion caused a ripple OF merriment
among the spectators, but it has a
serious import, bringing to mind, a.
it surely does, that railroad compa-
MES are often sued upon pretexts
about as flimsy. And the man who
pays the freight, of course, must pay
the damages when they are unfortu-
nately allowed. q

sSlx Hundred Dollan on less than Three
Acres of Cround.

We are informed by one Of our
prominent business men thatMr. Fran
els Wright, who lives in this county
planted last year about. two and one
half acres in sweet potatoes, which
yielded eight hundred .bushels. Mr..
Wright has sold six hundred bushels
Of these potatoes at from 75cts. to
$l.00 per bushel, and stwo hundred
bushels Of seed potatoes left, worth
$1.00 per bushel. The eight hundred
bushels which Mr.. Wright raised on
this small piece OF land would have
brought him, even at 75cts. per
bushel, 100000. The two and a halt
acres in cotton would have made,
under favorable conditions, about one
bale, worth about $4,000. Here is an
object lesson for Grenada county far
mers that ought to be of some value
to them. The SENTINEL has con-
tended for long time that diversified
farming is the only salvation of our
farmers. The great demand of the
world to day is for something to eat.
If the farmer has to buy his supplies
and pay for them in cotton it will
keep him in a debt-ridden condition,
while the constant raising of cotton
will wear out and impoverish his lands.
On the other hand diversified farming
and stock raising will fill his barn and
smOkehOuse, give him a surplus for
sale and constantly improve and en-
hance the value of his land. 1t takes
as much brains to successfully run a
farm as it does for almost any other
kind of business. Almost any man
can butcher up the land and raise a
little cotton, but it takes an intelli-
gent thinking man to make an up-to-
date practical farmer. We must keep
abreast of the times if we succeed in
anything, especially in this great
twentieth century of progress and
development iii the material resources
of the world.
