Much Interest Aroused.

There has never before been 50 much in- terest stirred up here among our farmers as was shown here today. The questions which the farmers asked showed that they were not only interested but in earnest.
 The grain car was opened up at o'clock and for hours crowds of interested farm CTS pressed through the car examining the various grains and grasses. Here Mir White was again kept busy answer ing questions and explaining the value of the many crops which the seed sam ples represented
 MT. White has spared no time or ex- pense in fitting up this car, the Frisco giving him unlimited discretion in this matter and he has on exhibition a very fine collection of grains and grasses va rieties suitable for any and all soils along the Frisco. Mir. White went away greatly pleased with the result of this meeting and with a more kindly feeling if possible for the people of Walker county and feeling that much good had been accomplished. The car leaves to- night for Guin, where Mir White will lecture again tomorrow We have new iiouring mill here and there is now great interest in wheat growing. so that this helped to male MT Whites visit here at this time with the distribution of his bulletins on improvement of grains and cultivation of soils very opportune The farmers were all supplied with a good stock of these bulletins and we can expect to see. better wheat crops here in the future The farmers are preparing to SOW a large acreage of wheat in this county this fall.

FARMERS LISTEN ID WHITES LECTURE Frisco Grain Car Visits Jasper
 and Guin GREAT INTEREST AROUSED Urges Farmers to Give More Atten- tion to Raising of Wheat, Which
 Will Thrive In North
 Alabama.
INTEREST AROUSED

Jasper June 29.-(Speeial.)-F S. White arrived in Jasper early this morning in the Frisco educational grain and exhibi- ton car At Il o'clock a mass meeting of farmers and citizens was called at the court house. where Mir. White delivered lecture of two hours. the burden of the talk was along the lines of grain growing and improvement of grains. The meeting was attended by more than one hundred representative farmers of Wal ker county. MT White showed what the farmers of Maryland were doing in building up their soils by rotation of crops, using grasses and clovers in the rotation, and how this rotation and the keeping of dairy cows had brought their lands up to where they were producing from thirty to forty bushels of wheat per acre.
 MT. White said that North Alabama could and should do as well and that he felt confident that when the farmers were educated to have more confidence in themselves and in their country that they could and would do as well in wheat growing as the farmers on the poor clay hills of Maryland are doing Mr. White said he was in earnest, in fact he said trying to improve the conditions of the farmers. He said that every business was dependent, either directly or indh N't- ly for its success upon the farm and the farmer.

Has the Work at Heart.


 He was sincere in stating that the main object of the railroad he represents was for a greater tonnage, but in addition to all this he stated that he had a patrio- tism that placed tho welfare of the peo- pie and the prosperity of his country far above any money consideration. He said that 1t was his great ambition to place the Frisco system in the lead in this great agricultural, educational campaign and stated that it was his desire to see the farmers along the Frisco system the most prosperous of all farmers in our great country. He appealed to those present to know if they were willing and if they would assist him in bringing about such results He said further If we can make the farmers along our line content ed with their homes, farms and sur roundngs and assist them in building homes where the boys will delight in remaining and cultivating the farms, that, with such rural homes as this scattered all along the line the ques- ton of tonnage for the road would be settled"
 He said that the Frisco had naugu- rated an aggressive campaign of agricul- tural education and that 1t was up to the farmers to decide as to whether they would avail themselves of it's advan- tages He also said that if any farmer on the Frisco system remained in Hitter acy on agricultural lines that it was will full neglect on his part, for said he We are not only giving these lectures free but we are editing bulletins on various agricultural subjects and these, too are free for the asking"
