The revolution in corn growing in- augurated by McIver Williamson. or Columbia South Carolina is spreading rapidly through the Southern StatesThe uprising has found, already. many ao- herents in Alabama The Williamson corn method will be explained to farm- CTS all over the state.

Williamson. addressing gatherings of farmers at various places.
 It is the object of these two gentle men, to explain the new corn growing method to the farmers and endeavor. to get them to adopt the new plan. whicn Is said to make the production or corn far more profitable than heretofore.
 "A course of lectures on the subject. furnished by Mir. Williamson, will be run from week to week in The Adver- tiser, the first note of instruction be- ing given here following letter rom Mir. Seymour.
 Major w. w. Screws:-
 q have to inform you that MT. E. McIver Williamson. of South Caroline, the author of the, corn method which bears his name and which has produced such marvellous results. wherever tried' in the South. has consented to come to Aalabama and spend ten days for the purpose of meeting the people of the State and discussing the method evolved by him. aroused in the State in the method and the numerous requests that nave come from every section of the state for a date for him. 1t has been exceed ingly difficult for me to make out his itinerary. Owing to the limited time be will be in the State, and my con seuuent inability to comply with all the requests made for him, I have made out his itinerary with the view oi l giving the largest number or peopie possible who are interested In the
 method an opportunity of hearing nim' | and have made the following appoint ments:

 "It is probable that among the ap
 pointments there Is none for youl
 county. It is to be hoped, however. Ii
 there is not that it will fin no wise
 deter your giving publicity to the ap pointments, and urging your people tS attend one of them, if convenient. "In the event an appointment Is mad' l for your county, 1t is hoped that yo,
 will give wide publicity to 1t. ana make special efforts in inducing youl
 people to attend.
 Tn my opinion. a new day Is dawn ing for Alabama, and 1t only a ques' | tion of a short time when our people will marvel at the many advantage' that have lain dormant at their doors
 which they have trampled upon. ant which. long ago. with little effort
 zhiIht Have been unveiled and placed fbefore sthefn.
