 Crop Improvement.
NEW INSURANCE FIRM

Selma, October 26.-(Special.)- order to stimulate interest in the temperance movement and to awaken the people gen. erally to the danger of the blind tiger evil after prohibition goes into effect, the Rev. Brooks Lawrence and MT. Col lins, superintendent of the Florida Anti Saloon league, addressed large audiences in the principal churches of the city yes terday. There was held last night at the First Methodist church a union meet ing which was largely attended. At this meeting MT. Lawrence made the state ment that Mir. Crockard of the Tennes- see Coal Iron and Railroad company who had contributed largely toward fight ing the prohibition movement, had said to him few days ago that conditions in his line of business had greatly improved since prohibition went into effect in Jef- ferson county and that if he, had to go over the ground again he would be in favor of prohibition. There was no effort made to organize law and order league as has been the plan in other cities. Selma has thus far observed the laws in re- gard to 9 o'clock closing and closing on Sunday rigidy and the formation of d law and order league was evidently deemed inadvisable.

the first eighteen holes in 80, and his

One hundred siXtyseven, or three
strokes above DOGGY was the highest
score that qualified, which indicates
that the company was exceedingly
