Troject Under Way Which Promises Much to Unfortunates if Necessary Money Can Be secured to
 Carry Out Plan.

Captain J. A. Odom has launched a movement to secure Salvation Army Farm within six miles of the City of Montgomery. The farm will be run in accordance with the philanthroric rin- ciples which have made so successful similar farms in England and in the North.
 Where these farms have been estab- lished they are now considered a ne- cessary adjunct one of the most im- portants adjuncts of the charitable work of the Salvation Army. The charity work of the Army in Montgomery has assumed such proportions in Montgom- cry that the need of such a farm is keenly felt.
 With little, if any, capital the local post of the Army has gone bravely out to secure the land for the farm. Cap tain Cdom has found that land in Montgomery county Is most expensive He is hoping for assistance from some large land owner or from the people of the county and city in the work. Some of the land which he has found to be suitable for the Army farm Is held at price as high as $75 or $1OO an acre.
 The Army with its present resources will not be able to pay any such price for a farm4& Captain Odom is hoping that the philanthropic people of Mont gomery will become interested in the work and in hopes that some land owner may feel such an interest in the possibilities of such an institu- tion that If he does not give the Army enough land for the undertaking he will be willing to sell 1t at a sacrifice price,
 Captain Odom would be glad to call and discuss the matter with any one who feels an interest in the undertak- ing. He will move aInong those who have already shown themselves friend ly to the work of the Army and enlist their sympathy in the undertaking.
 The farm work of the Army is no longer an experiment. It has been tried throughout the country and everywhere it has met with the com mendation that attends success.
 Among the purposes served by the farm there are two of special impor- tance. first, 1t affords the applicants for charity, who are able bodied, to re- turn in labor what they are compelled to ask in charity. In the second place it affords healthy surroundings and pure atmosphere for unfortunate men and women and children who are com pelled by their needs to seek aid from poverty and illness. A Salvation Ar my Farm. moreover. removes the un- fortunates from the unfayorable sur roundings of the city and places them where they can be of use and service.
 Our charity work has been so large that we are compelled to have farm" said Captain Odom yesterday. "The work we are doing now is purely char itable. We can expect nothing in re-
