The Message hears a great
many complaints that the roads in
this county are looked after less
and less each year. The money
and means for the work is always
small, and it seems, too, that there
are fewer men on the farms TO do
the work. There are no farm
hands any more, and the farmers
have need to put in all the time
they can spare in the fields. And
yet we keep talking good roads.
One solution would be to have a
requirement TO work the convicts
on the roads. They do that under
their new constitution in Oklaho-
ma and it ought to be done in Mis-
souri,.

Gov. Hadley and the State Board

See the State Agricultural ex-
hibit at the Mexico Fair. One of
the most interesting features is
that in reference to the drainage
experiments on, the farm of j. f.
Coontz, west of Vandalia. The
experiments commenced four
years ago, when the land was
planted in cowpeas. Part of the
land is drained and part is not.
The cowpeas ON the drained land
yielded S2l5 pounds to the
acre and the undrained
only 1000 pounds. The next year.
1908, corn was planted on the
same ground. The drained land
gave yield Of $40 bushels TO
the acre and the undrained PSI.
In 1909 oats was planted and the
drained section gave a yield of
oo.4 bushels to the acre and the
undrained only 49.G. In 1910
wheat was sOWn. The drained
land yielded 11.5 bushels 10 the
acre and the undrained 81 This
year, as the four year rotation
has been completed, cowpeas has
been sown again.

A COLONY OF ACTORS.
Wearied Play People VIII Seek
Rest Near Crescent City.

The Florida Development Co. was re-
Gently organized in Louisville, KY, with
Raymond Hitchcock, the well-known
comedian, as president and principle
stockholder.
This company has recently purchased
1000 acres of the company now owning
the great tract of land stretching from
Crescent City Junction and Denver TO
Lake George. One of the promoters OF
the new development company is Henry
A. Guthrie of Louisville, and another is
L. A. Gardner of Rhode Island.
On this 1000 acres of land it is pro-
posed to establish a colony of members
of the theatrical profession. A recent
issue of the Louisville Herald, in telling
of the organization of this company and
its new president, Mr.. Hitchcock, says:
Mr.. Hitchcock who probably owns
more real estate than any other man in
the theatrical profession with the excep-
ton of Nat Goodwin, purchased $1O,OOO
worth of stock in the new company, and
will, it is understood, cater exclusively
to members of the profession as patrons
of the company.
The Florida Land, Development &
Improvement Company will be incorpo
rated at $50, 900, and articles of incorpo.
ration have been prepared and will be
filed within the next few days. While
the home of the company will be in
Florida, branches will be located in
Louisville and in the new George NJ.
Cohan Theater building in New York.
The object of the company will be to
develop Florida land, and 200 acres OF
land contracted for at Crescent City,
Fla, will be made into farms and homes
for the leading members of the theatri.
cal profession, where, when tired oil
scenes behind the footlights, they may
seek rest and recreation in Florida.
When seen last night, Mr.. Hitchcock
was enthusiastic over the outlook Tor inc
new company. "While am not what
might be termed business man in its
strictest sense, must confess that | be-
come sentimental over the word Florida.
have invested good deal of my money
in real estate, but most Of ii will go into
Florida land. Real estate is always a
good investment, but | believe Florida
| land the best possible. II is quite prob
able that we shall have little colony OF
actors and actresses in the Southern
state, and if money and work will avail
anything we shall certainly have an ideal
little city,"
