COTTON BROADCAST
Experience OF Mr., .. NJ. Fleming al
Raising the Staple in New
Way.

Raising the staple IN new
Way.
Mr. 8. M. Fleming. whose farm is on Norris
Creek three miles south OF the city was IN
town last sale day, and We having heard that
he had been sowing cotton broadcast, we
ask ed him about ais method. He said:
~ fret put stable manure on the land al
the rate OF about fve TWO horse loads 10 the
acre. Then I broke II with two horse ptow
and then sowed the seed at rate of Two
bushels to the acre, but that was too much
and more than would SOW again. The next
work was with cut-away harrow TO cover
the seed.
After the cotton began to come up. I run
my weeder over 1t, which killed the grass
and thinned the cotton, repeated this work
with the weeder twice week until the cotton
was too big.
''Ths stalks average about five TO the square
yard, and the average bolls Is about twenty
TO the stalk-or about one hundred 'bolls 10
the square. The cotton has never stopped
growing. 1t has shed no bolls. The bolls are
as good and as heavy as In the adjoining crop
which was cultivated in the usual way.
Some OF my friends, who have seen the crop,
say that the sowed land Is producing better
results than the cultivated land.
~ wouldn't advise any body to SOW his
whole crop, but would advise all TO try b
small patch. 1t wouldn't do TO take all the
work from cotton choppers. The cotton
picker is coming, and then We will all be
happy"

Haz the Town Attained It's Growth

Has the Town Attained It's Growth
Mr.. visanska having invested 80 largely in
the cotton mill and having put SO much
money in our new hotel, feels that he must
rest q while, and does not now find 1t con-
venient or wise for him to take the lead IN
anything else. No one else having appeared
willing to take the initiative in any other
effort TO advance the interests Of the town, II
may be safely imagined that the town is nm
ished, for the present, at least.
But We have now the opportunity OF a life
time in getting the Presbyterian College
In o little while all the colleges will have
found permanent resting places, and then the
hope Of college for this town will be gone
along that line, at least.
The history Of the recent past would prove
that no enterprise pays in material advan.
tages as we'll as q college. But our people
seem to be asleep to their be-. interests, and,
as far as we are informed, no attempt at ef-
fort has been made TO secure the prize which
might now be had.
II we had college at our doors much great
or advantages for an education would be
offered TO our young men.
II $50 students spent from $500 10 $500 each,
the town would receive great advantage.
Ifa dozen educated Christian teachers were
to make their homes here, who would dare
limit their Influence for good amongst us?
e.. Ifsn endowment fund ofs5O.OOO was put in
circulation at Abbeville, who ia it among
you that would not be benefitted7
As q school or q college benefits every
citizen, and as the financial benefits are dis
tributed, the best way to get the college Is by
the issue Of bonds by the town. The presence
OF the college, with Its teachers, It's students
and its endowment would be worth TO the
the city, say s25O,OO0. Then to secure that
increaee OF material things, to say nothing OF
the spiritual and educational advantages,
$4,000 would be cheap price to pay for it.

UNCLE SAM LOSES HYDE.

New York, Dec 2S-Among the pas sengers who sailed today on the steamer Touraine from this port were James H Hyde, of Equitable fame and a number of old family servants all bound for France, which country Mir. Hyde intends 10 make his future home.
 Slowed way in the hold of the ship are hundreds of boxes and crates containing the magnificent collection of art treasures, furniture. hangings etc, which had heretofore furnished and adorned the family residence on East Fortieth street.
 Although MT. Hyde kept his inten- ton of removing to France strictly secret, it has caused but little sur prise. Recent events, especially tn Equitable Insurance company mud de and following investigation, had sorely wounded his self-respect and vanity. and the notoriety which he had gained by his connection with the insurance investigation jared upon his delicate sensibilities to such an extent that he no longer felt comfort. able amid the old surroundings. Nat he had loved and admired from his earliest boyhood. perhaps even more than his native country.
 MT. Hyde has severed his connec- tion with nearly all the industrial and commercial enterprises in which he was interested. and it is believed by his friends that he will not return to this country. except for a short visit

WARNING TO DOUGLAS.

 Now that the city election is over the municipal authorities are inter esring themselves in the legal phase of the situation. It will be remem- bered that the primary election law was not compiled with, but both par ties, acting under the arrangements made for primary elections, are pro bably estopped from taking any ad- vantage of the error However, the councilmen wish to be sure that all the acts of the body after January first are legal, especially in the event of another bond election. and it is now proposed to carry out the plan of having the three councilmen. whose terms expire, tender their res ignations 0 the mayor and to name as their successors the three men chosen at the polls
 This step is proposed in order to make the legality uf the election dou- bly sure. Bond lawyers are particu- lar and it is thought that if this ac- ton is taken there can be no ques- ton as to the legality of the council as law making body y-Tucson Citi- zen.

Later he gained control of Lows Op- era House, which he remodeled and named Keith's Opera House. making 1t the finest and most prosperous play house in the state.
 ''On to Philadelphia" now became Mir. Keith's slogan, and after purchas- ing and reconstructing at great cost a large building on North Eighth street he in 1889 opened splendid tbeater, seating 2,70O persons.
 MT. Keith purchased the Union Square theater In New York in 1898 being given just twenty minutes in which to consider an offer for the building. The unqualified success of his continuous performances in New York is stage history.
 Possibly Mir. Keith's greatest achieve ment was the building in Philadelphia of his famous S1,0O0,O00 theater in Chestnut street The luxury. safety, beauty, dignity and convenience Of this building became the subject of wide spread comment.
 The cases cited show MT. Keith's ad- vance from a small beginning, but they do not tell half the story. These are but a few of the houses he has placed to his credit, and his influence is now felt from one end of the land to the other and even extends across the sea, for he owns the Princess theater in London. In addition to booking shows for his own houses his shows have be come the standard and are used in many theaters in this country and Can ada

The success of E. F. Keith as tEe founder of a form of theatrical enter tahment will always occupy a proml- nent part in the history of the Ameri can stage.

 I'd like to be q singer a girl will say.
 Like to be singer
 If you are singer ut ali. you've al ways been one! You've been a singer since before you could remember.
 All really great singers will tell you they have always sung since earliest childhood
 T cant remember when didn't : sing"
 Then women of twenty-ive-yes, and six and seven and eight and nine make up their minds to study for opera.
 Think of it,
 If you have any future as ] singer you must have done something before you are twCSty.
 A girl often goes abroad without the slightest requirements for the task she has set herself,
 T think I'll sing in opera" she de cldes, and away she goes. An ordi- nary voice never does anything but ordinary work.
 And how very, very few exraordi- nary voices we find.
 It is more than sad, these girls who go abroad to study without any re- quirements.
 They are fooled by interruptions people and are looked upon simply as 8 source of income. and after many priYations and much hard work they find themselYes-nowhere.
 And they are unfitted for anything else
 The American girl who goes abroad to learn to sing is welcomed in one way-inancially. She pours money Into the coffers and gets laughed at in return.
 ~ If a girl has a voice and wants to go abroad she should first carefully in- vestigate the cost of all necessary ex- penses and make sure that she will be able to meet them, and then she should not go to Paris, but to Italy, both be cause living there is cheaper and be cause it presents the best chances.
 Next in importance to the voice is health The girl who Is the least bit delicate should never attempt the oper. atic stage. She must have health, the best of it, and tremendous vitality. Crowds have rushed abroad who were not in the least equipped. Few have ever been heard of. Few will ever be heard of.
