Dothan. Jan.. 12-(Special)-Dr. J. R. c. Howell. one of Dothan's most promi- nent citizens. Is critically III at his home on South St. Andrews Street, and is not expected to live through an- other night.
 He Is a prominent member of the State Medical Board and one of the most prominent business and profess sional men in the state. He Is presI- dent of the Houston County National Bank. and has always been a prime mover in every advancement of Dothan's business.
 He has been for about fifteen years secretary of the Sunday School Of the First Baptist Church. and has been e useful citizen.
 The attending i, physicians. had but little hope for his going through last night. but reported his condition today slightly improved from yesterday evening.
 A brother, pr. S. M c. Howell. of Midland City, and his son, Dr. w. c. Howell of Dothan are In constant at tendance at his bedside and all that medical skill can do to save his life will be done.
 Dothan. Houston County. and almost the entire section of southeast Ala bama Is now suffering the longest drought in the history of several years. Cotton stalks have taken on their third growth on account of delayed winter, and the farmers are complete ly at a loss to know when and now to prepare for another crop.
 They report the ground entirely too dry and hard to break up as yet, and that no semblance of season sut- ficient for making another crop seems to be at hand.
 More oats are perhaps being planted in this section this season than ever before, but without rain at an early date. not much crop can be expected.
 The weather has not been cold enough yet to justify hog killing, yet several of the farmers took chances on saving their meat last week, and sev- eral thousand pounds of meat was Killed.

IN BALDWIN
WOULD BUILD FROM FOLEY TO
 FORT MORGAN.
Captain Wiley Intreduces Bth la
 Congress for Military Road to Cost e200.o0o.

Washington, Jan. Is.-(specieL)- Capt. O. c. Wiley. Representative from the Second Alabama District, has introduced in the House . bill provid- ing for a military highway from Fort Morgan to Foley. Ala.
 The proposed highway would be twenty eight miles long and the bill carries an appropriation of s2oo.ooo. F 'T trust that may be able to se- cure authorization for the construc- ton of the highway at this session." said Captain Wiley. Its importance is patent to anyone familiar with the situation. Foley, the southern ter minus of the branch of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, Is the nearest railroad point to Fort Morgan. In fact. this is the southernmost railroad point in Baldwin County. The road from Fort Morgan to Foley Is In an almost impossible condition.
 '"The construction of macadam road between. these points would mean much for the comfort of the ofticers and soldiers uuaftered at Fort Morgan, as they have no other means of egress except by water. It would be of in- mense advantage to the people of that section in the matter of marketing their crops. etc. and would greatly facilitate the mall service. It would also contribute to the national de- fense. e .stf
 "Fort Morgan is located on the end of the lean peninsular extending out almost due west from the southern. end of Baldwin County. where 1t borders on the Gulf of Mexico, distance Of twelve or fifteen miles, separating Bon Secour Bay from the Gulf. The ex- treme end of this peninsular where Fort Morgan is situated. is scarcely a half mile wide.
 "In case of war. the enemy's craft could easily attack, the fort on three sides. Reinforcements and supplies. in that event, would have to come over land from Foley, the nearest railroad point. ~
 .'The present condition of the road from Foley to Fort Morgan would greatly retard assistance"
