COMPLAIN OF JIM CROW CARS.
Nearoee Go To Commissio and Put in
 Objection Against System.

Wushnet9n, Oct ; Several na= 9roes of the south, oh behalf of theif race. have complained U the inter- state commerce. commission of the use by railroads of the south of Jim Crow" cars for interstate passengers, and have requested the commission to investigate the subject and on the de- yclopment of the facts to issue an or der compelling the railroads not to dis criminate against passengers on ac- count of their color.
 The petition is signed by Thomas Oliver and w. D. Johnson of Mississip- nj and about a dozen other negroes. IL says in part:
 Under present conditions colored interstate passengers are denied equal privileges With interstate passen. gers. Colored interstate passengers are compelled by the railways ill the known as jim crow cars. which are usually filthy and uncomfortable, and are denied the right to eat ill railway dining cars and occupy berths in sleeping cars because of their color all of which is a violation of the Hep burn railroad rate regulation law which invests your honorable body with power equally to force equality between colored and white interstate passengers holding interstate tickets on the railways of the country
 The petitioners say they have no funds with which to employ counSel to argue their case.

PECAN GROWING YIELDS
 x x. READY MONEY IN ALABAMA

are selling pecan trees now like they were selling LeConte pear trees twelve or fifteen years ago. A fruit tree man has estimated that the demand for pe- can trees has in four years increased 200 per cent A definite movement for the inauguration of pecan culture has been made in Baldwin County. Many of the immigrants who have come in from the northern States are planting a considerable portion of their purchase in pecan trees. Tn this they are being encouraged by the land coiu- panies. Other purchasers in the north who have not come to Alabama to take their residence have contracted to have their purchases set out In pecan trees.
 From the days of the spaniards pe- cans have flourished along the Gulf Coast From, Mobile to New (9fleans the best oceans in tho country are grown. In the State of Mississippi the industry has assured more financial importance than along the Baldwin County coast in Alabama, but Alaba- ma has began to move rapidly towards the upbuilding of this phase of it's az ricultural life.
 On some of the Alabama plantations. especially along the Alabama River theBe are many specimens of the best kinds Of pecan trees. The largest orr chard along the river is, no doubt, the one on the Bonner place in Wilcox County. which gives forth each year a great crop of oceans. ~
 Reed Orchard at Lanett.
 But beyond all doubt the largest and most important financially in the state Is the orchard of the Reed Pecan Com pany of Lanett. This orchard was planted twelve years ago by P. B. Reed and 1t has been bearing profitably for four years. This orchard is on tie outskirts of Lanett and is damned close up against the Georgia line. II is located in the obtuse angle made by the Chattahoochee River and the state line between Georgia and Alabama. IL is right in the point made sg the june tion of the river and the State line.
 In all. Mir. Reed has slightly more than 110 acres in pecan trees. At the present only 50 acres or trees, the old orchard are now bringing in returns to the far sighted founder. It was this fifty acres which MT. Reed capi- talized into The Reed Pecan Orchard. Mir Reed readily sold S1S,000 worth Of the capital stock of the company, re- taining a controlling interest in if for his own benefits
 The officers of the company are E. B. Reed of Lanett President, F. M. coker of Atlanta, Pice President, L. $. Turner. of West Point, President, T. J. Eady of Atlanta Secretary.
 "Do oceans make good money erop?" was the direct question put to Mr. Reed.

with patience. peoans make the best of money crops" he repithd. ''ln our fifty acre orchard we have 2,00V trees. At the rate they are bearing we will get an easy average of q bush el to the tree. A bushei of oceans is worth $4.20 In the orchards. So you see we can easily look for a return ot sS,000 year from the orchard. That beats cotton doesn't 1t?
 Pecan trees generally hear at eight years, although some come into bear ing a year earlier. But the man who plants oceans need not leave the land of his orchard out of cultivation that long. For the first seven years he can de as we did here. cultivate cotton in the orchard while the trees were de- veloping. The trees are all the better for tho cultivation given the cotton
 in Texas they plant the pecan trees in checks forty feet aparhs that's what we did here but we made a miss take. Trees forty feet apart may do all right for Texas, but they are too close together here in Alabama. It larger in Alabama than they do in Texas but they do. It is not neces. lsary to give care and cultivation to pecan trees but they are all the better for such care and such cultivation. An oak tree on lawn doesn't need care but it grows and does better for clf1ti vation and attention. And so 1t is with pecan trees.
 Tt pays well to feed fertilizer to the roots Of these trees although they will grow well without 1t. We found drled blood to be tho best Y9rtilizer to put at the root of our trees but we could not always get 1t. Tn it's place. as a feed for the roots, we used bone dust and cotton seed meal These fertili- fraH -ot- the trees in our orchard now dog on years old, show how we'll pecan trees can do in our climate and our soil when given sufficient attention.
 Demand iH S&endy
 There is no difficulty whatever in finding a market for the fruit of the trees. The market for oceans is as steady as the market for cotton. We receive here five times as many orders as we can fill. Practically all our crop is, shipped to wholesale merchants In New Orleans.
 The chief advantage in growing pe- cans is that there is never a crop failnre I have never known a crop failure. I don't believe there will ever be such a failure. Another great ad- vantage as compared to cotton is the small attention the trees demand anu the lack of necessity for labor We never have employed any labor except in the gathering season
 The man who grows oceans can nave the satisfaction of seeing his crop ana his money returns grow larger each wear without an-effort from him. Each year the cror grows larger as the tree grows. In the outskirts of West Polnt there is a big pecan tree about 45 years old. The splendid crops of pecans grown from this old tree first indueed me to go Into pecan growing as bus ines The crop of oceans rom that tree last year sold for $50.
