FORMER WAITRESS IS OUT
FOR THE big MONEY GAME

ent the marriage vows were said,
but the final break did not come un-
til last Friday, when the young wife
brought two suits which prove be-
yond question that she will never
consent to a reconciliation.
In an action against her husband
Mrs. Jennings declares that Jen-
nings deserted her on April "a last,
and has since failed to contribute to
her support. Furthermore, he caus-
ed to be inserted in a local neWspa-
per one month later a curt notice
to the effect that he would pay no
bills contracted by her For this al
legged insult and for desertion she
demands 100000.
In the second action Mrs. VIM. F.
Hill, mother of Jennings, and ma
iron in the smart set of New London
county, is sued for 100000, for aliena-
ting the affections of her son. In
the $4,000 suit Mrs Jennings charg-
ee that her husband boasted of be-
ing unfaithful, and advised her to
sue for divorce on statutory grounds.
She also alleges that he told her to
go forth and earn her own living.

Mr. Scott has never been an alarm

seems to have made up his mind tina
the situation is the most desperate
he has ever known. He is backed vi
in this opinion by every planter an;

TWO BALES OF
COTTON PER ACRE
INSTEAD OF ONE, is WHAT A GOA.
HoMA PLATNTER PRO-
POSES TO DO.

Coahoma county has planter who
proposes to make two bales of cotton
grow where one grew before. What is
more, he has virtually accomplished
this feat for last year he produced
fifteen bales of cotton on eight acres
of land and last year was not an I'M
commonly good cotton year either.
The name of this enterprising gentle
man is A. w. Whatley, and his feat
is deserving of as wide publicity as
can be given it. This year he has ten
experimental acres under cultivation,
from which he expects to gather TWEEN
| ty bales, and the prospect is said to
| be excellent for the realization of his
hopes. To be sure Mr.. Whatley has
the finest land in the United States
to work with, for there is nothing bet
ter than Delta buckshot; but he is
not satisfied with the natural richness
of the ground. He has supplemented
it with the scientific application of fer
tilizers and improved methods of cult
walton, with the result that he has in
duced the land to do exactly double
what it would do under primary cir
cumstances. There is a whole treatise
on economics in this little history II
contains the entire theory and practice
of intensive farming, and is a proof
that on ten acres of Delta land any
many can make god living. Or
twenty acres he ought to enjoy com
potency, and on forty prosperity

Phone line FOR
negro FARMERS

MOULTON, Ala. July S.-What is
perhaps the only farmers telephone
line to be used exclusively by negro
farmers, will be constructed on the
Hartselle road, extending about three
miles from Moulton and connecting
with the exchange of the Southern
Bell Telephone company at the limits
of Moulton.
The construction of this line is a
strong indication of the progressive
mes of the negro farmers in Alabama,
this being the first line of the kind to
be used exclusively by negroes that
has been constructed in the seven
southern states in which the Southern
Bell company operates. The leading
spirits of this movement are two pros
porous negro farmers; ]. w. Shack

entire neighborhood in which these
negroes live, which embraces a radius
of several miles is owned by negroes
and there is not a white family OF
the road out of Moulton for a distance
of about four miles.
BY constructing this line these negrt
farmers will be in constant touch witt
the merchants and business men o
Moulton with whom they trade exter
sively, and through the long distanc
lines of the Bell system will be abb
to reach al points in the state.

CROP CONDITION
VERY BAD IN DELTA
Hon. Chas. Scott Says They Are Worse
Than He Has Ever Known Them
in Many Years of Planting.

JACKSON, Miss, July S.-Hon.
Chas. Chas. Scott, of Bolivar county,
who is perhaps the most extensive
grower of cotton in the world, not
even excepting the Khedive of Egypt,
was in Jackson en- route to Seminary,
Covington county where he was sched
uled for an address before the Con-
federate veterans at their county re-
union.
AS stated, Mr.. Scot is large cot
ton grower. He owns and controls a
score or more of great plantations in
the delta country, and raises thou
sands of bales of cotton annually.
For that reason he is authority on the
condition of the cotton crop-the besl
perhaps, in the state, for the reason
that here is none of the pessimis
about him.
