Truck Growing Industry.

The following facts and figures
will show that the truck growing
industry is a profitable business.
Here are a few figures from relia-
BILE men who had small patches.
w. NJ. Ainsworth planted three
acres in tomatoes. He estimates
that be cleared at least $3.50 or
5000. Next yeal he will plant at
least ten acres in tomatoes, be-
sides some cabbage and beans.
Dan Pitts planted four acres in
tomatoes and sold his crop for
$1,000, cleared 800, planted the
same ground in cotton and has as
good prospects as any farmer who
planted cotton alone.
John Pitts planted one and a
half acres in tomatoes and sold
$500 worth and figures that he
cleared $240. The same land was
planted in cotton.
r. E. Ainsworth planted one
and a half acres in beans and got
$184 for his crop and says he net
ted at least $125.
H. E. Strain planted a small
patch of Irish potatoes and sold
$3.50 worth and planted the same
ground in corn.
Another gentleman in Halle
hurst cleared above expenses $55
per acre on cabbage and $100 per
acre on tomatoes.
We could give many more
names of farmers who made mon
ey on truck but the above is suffi-
cient to show what can be done.
Next year several hundred acres
will be in truck around Hazlehurst
and the industry is going to be
backed and pushed by one of our
strongest mercantile firms.
Our people are beginning to
realize what they have been los
ing in the past by not taking hold
and pushing truck growing in this
vicinity.
q. j. Young bad one and half
acres in tomatoes and sold $3.50
worth. He estimated that he
cleared $3.50.
Britain & Henry put twelve
acres in tomatoes, beans and cab
bage. Mr.. Britain says he is sat
isfied beyond doubt they will net
at least $1,000. E. j. Harvey su-
perintended the growing of the
crop and J. D. Mayes shipped it.
Mr.. Mayes also shipped for sew
eral other growers and succeeded
in getting the highest market
price for all of his customers.
Last year the truck crops
amounted to one-fourth the entire
cotton crop of Copiah county,
while acreage in truck was just
one-eleventh of the acreage in
cotton. Hazlehurst Courier.

The YazOO Relief Fund.

The Relief Committee, appoint
ed after the recent. devastation of
Yazoo City by fire, has had its
final meeting and Mayor Holmes
made a statement of all receipts,
which amounted to $2S, 900, be-
sides provisions and clothing in
great quantity. OF this amount
about $4,000 has been distribut-
ed, and all provisions and cloth
ing. The Kings Daughters were
the agents for The distribution of
the clothing and the provisions,
and among other things accom-
plished, a thousand garments we're
given away.

button gave to each of the white

to the A. M. E. church and St.
Stephens M. E. church (coIored)
each 500; to the Kings Daugh-
ters, $4,000 and to the Library
Association 5000. 1t was under
stood that the churches and the
Kings Daughters we're to make
such use of the moneys placed in
their hands as would give the best
relief to losses and suffering occa-
stoned by the FIRE. This was to
be determined by the congrega-
tions to whom assistance was Civ

True Heroism.

An incident at the Second Bap-
tist church Sunday morning last
is deserving of mention. just as
DIR. B. D. Gray had read his text
for the great mission sermon he
preached from the pulpit of the
Second church Sunday, a servant
from the PASTORS home near the
church ran to the church and
beckoned the pastor, W. P. Price,
out. It was at once evident both
to the preacher, DR.. Gray, and to
the congregation that the servant
had announced fire at the pasto-
rum. Ordinarily a panic would
have followed and great service
been broken up. But the GOODNESS
first, of DR.. Price, in nRying back
to DR.. Gray to go ahead with his
sermon and DR.. Gray's GOODNESS
and tact in handling the congrega-
tion prevented anything like a
panic and completely saved the
occasion. The services proceeded
as if nothing had happened not
person beside DR.. Price leaving
The house.
But the greatest heroism, the
equal of which the writer has new
eT before. witnessed, was display
ed by the PASTORS noble wife, who
rather than have the services mar
red, kept her seat at the organ,
while she had every reason to be-
.lieve her house on fire. Is there
another woman in a thousand that
could have done that?-P B.

Cheers and Tears for Bryan.

A St. Louis correspondent of
the New York Sun, says:
Then Col. Bryan uttered a
sentence personal to himself and
which brought cheers and tears to
the audience. He said: Eight
years ago a Democratic conven-
tion placed in my hands the stand
ard of the party and gave me the
commission as its candidate.
Four years later that commission
was renewed. | come tonight to
this Democratic convention to re-
turn the commission and say to
you that you may dispute wheth-
er ] fought good fight; you may
dispute whether / finished my
course, but you may not deny
that / have kept the faith. The
tumultuous outburst which broke
over the convention at those last
words will be remembered for
many a long day. Many on the
platform shed tears, and those in
the Nebraska delegation were con-
yulsed with emotion. z
