Expected That Phosphate Fields

Owing to the stringency in the
money markets of the country and the
inability of the operators to obtain
ready currency with which to meet
their pay rolls all of the phosphate
mines in and around Mt. Pleas
ant closed down Wednesday
and will temporarily suspend
operations. The closing of the
mines will throw out Of employ
ment for a time between $500 and
5000 laborers. However, it is not
anticipated that the mines will be
closed long and comparatively little
inconvenience will result.
The closing of the mines was
deemed best by the operators because
of inability to get currency with which
to meet pay rolls. Since the New
York and Nashville banks and the
banks of practically all the financial
centers of the country have taken
steps to conserve their cash supply
business must necessarily be done
largely on the check or credit system.
While business men and people gem
orally understand the situation, It was
realized that the miners in the phos-
phate fields would demand currency
when they are paid off.

SAND DOLLARS.
Forty Acres Of High Grade Rock
And Mining Begins
Soon.

One of the most important phos-
innate deals in some months was con-
sumated Saturday when Mr. Watkins
L. Fleming sold his fine farm of 800
acres in the Zion neighborhood for
s2O5OO to syndicate OF prominent
phosphate men.
The purchasers are H. P. Ffguers,
]. A. Chapman, ]. H. Dining, 7. N.
Figuers, Jr., j. A. Shelly and r. s.
Elan. This is a very fine phos-
phate farm, and has been under option
to Mr.. T. N. Figuers, Jr., for some
months and it has recently been esti-
mated that there are from twenty
five to forty acres of high grade
phosphate rock on this place and as
soon as the purchasers get possession,
active mining operations will begin.
This property was inherited by Mr..
Fleming from his father and has been
in the Fleming family for almost a
hundred years, and thus has been SOD
another of those farms belonging TO
the Zion people, than whom there
has never been a more splendid COM
munity in this state. Mr.. Fleming, BY
a life of charity and kindness has
earned the great success that has
come to him. 1t is to be hoped that
Maury county will not lose him, but
that he will decide to remain in his
own county.
