H. S. Doster, editor of the Prattvile Progress, one of the most progressive weekly newspapers in Alabama is an in dustrial baron.
 He is one of the early men of affairs who yielded to the 'back to the farm sentiment. or, perhaps, really he has never cut entirely away from the soil.
 He owns one of the best and largest farms in Autauga county, not far from Prattviile and spends most of his time out there supervising and managing its affairs.
 He has about 20 tenants on the place, all negroes, and Mir. Doster tells me that they all know how to grow some corn. Every tenant on my place will raise enough corn for himself and stock this year" said Mr. Doster. ''I have always insisted on my tenants growing some corn and they can do 1t successfully and 1t is really better for the landlord that they do it.
 Most of my tenants also raise their own meat and are pretty independent. They usually have some money ahead at

PapllIlon Times: Omaha received a final

to buy the plant from the private owners
at the appraised valuation Of ts,28s, 2S5. 80.

OF the water company have been, the mat

Beatrice Express: omaha. like most OF

clusion that she was expecting too much
of the census this year. Dissatisfied with
the government enumeration, the CONNER

taken, with the result that II WAS found
there were several thousand less people
In Omaha than was counted on earlier in
the year The gain over the 1900 census
will be small. Similar results in practi-
cally all the other towns Of the state lead
to the conclusion that the census ten years
ago was padded considerably.
