between this city and Altoona today
A. E. ireland, general organizer OF

ENGLISH TO TRY TO
RAISE OUR COTTON
Buy Plantations in the Delta
for That Purpose

Jackson, Miss, May lit develop
ed today that English spinners are in
terested in the purchase of the two
Scott plantations in the delta, result
ing in the formation of two large cor
porations, and that, for the first time
in the history of cotton culture, the
spinners will begin to produce the
staple.
Two separate corporations were
formed by a group of spinners, who
have associated with them Memphis
and one Jackson capitalist. Most of
the money Invested is from London,
and the companies will engage two
experienced men to conduct the farm
ing operations for them 1t is said
that another British group is consid-
ering the purchase of some of the cut
over lands in Southwest Mississippi
for cotton purposes.
Representatives of the English fl
nanciers have been in Mississi sew
eral days looking into conditions and
| it is these same capitalists or their
associates who are looking over the
mississippi Central railroad and Unit
ed States Lumber Company. 1t is re-
ported that options have been secured
on these properties and that an ef-
fort was made to get an option on the
New Orleans Great Northern railroad
but failed.
The statement is made from re-
liable source, that foreign capitalists
are looking to Mississippi for invest
ments, and that other syndicates may
get into this state in short time
IiSome of these corporations, it is said
may take over extensive agricultural
interests, while others are looking for
investment in various lines.
Foreign spinners are going into thf
cotton producing business because
they believe that, in few years, the
price of the staple will advance to
point where it will be impossible tC
go into the open market for the pro
duct and make purchases at figures
that will ALLOW fair margin of prof
to the manufacturer. In other word
they believe it will be cheaper t.
raise their own cotton than to buy i
: through the usual channels, and tn
cotton raised on the Triumph ant
Lake Vista plantations will be ginned
S compressed and shipped direct from
these plantations to the cotton mill
in England.

WORK HAS BEGUN ON
LEE COUNTY link
Direct and Modern Roadway
Will Be Completed

Work has commenced on Lee coun-
ty road between Smithville and Lees
burg, one of the two bad links in the
Audersonville-T -Thomasville route be-
tween Fort Valley and Albany.
Thursday morning of last week the
Lee cou! ty convict squad of % mer
took up the work of Transforming this
road into one of the best and most
modern roads in this section, for that
is what the road will be, according to
reports, when it will have been com.
pleted.
The general plan of the work is &c
commence at the northern end of the
road, entirely changing the present
route by crossing the railroad at a
short distance below Smithville and
then following on the western side the
railroad to Leesburg. AS the railroad
track from Smithville to Leesburg is
almost a straight line, the directness
gained by the new route will be nota-
BILE.
The devious windings of the road
from Smithville to Leesburg, especial
ly throughout certain portions, has
proved the discomfort of many an au-
tomobilist, This unpleasant feature
will be entirely removed by the new
road. The sandbeds encountered in
several places will also be replaced by
splendidly surfaced road the equal
of any in this section.
1t is the puryose of the Lee county
commissioners to build the road for
all time, now that the matter of con-
structing it has come up for public
consideration and decision. Hardness
in taking up the matter has served to
impress upon them the necessity of
selecting the most direct route and of
making the best possible roadway.
1t is the purpose of the Lee county
AOl SC VI LICE COullIy Sd1 DS hSpI dI dp-
proXimately the present strength, the
road can be completed in about six or
seven months No doubt is entertained
but that the work will be thoroughly
and capably done and that Lee county
may feel proud of its road system
when the road under consideration is
completed.
1t is interesting to know that Oliver,
the Climax "financier," is considered
one of the most valuable men at work
upon the squad that is constructing the
new road. Oliver is serving a four
year sentence, one year of which will
be completed in May. Deducting the
time allowed for good behavior, ne
should finish his sentence in a little
less than two years.
Americus and Sumter county auto
mobilists are gratified to know that
the work of building the new road has
been commenced and that it will be
carried to completion as rapidly and
as thoroughly as possible. AS work
has already commenced on the Ma
con county link, it is hoped that the
Andersonville-T -Thomasville route will
soon be a reality.

LEE SUPERIOR COURT
is NOW in SESSION
Second Largest Murder Dock.
ct in History of Court

Leesburg, Ca, May Lee County
Superior court convened to-day with
the second largest number of murder
cases on docket in the history of the
court There are five cases of mur-
der on the criminal docket. The lar
gest number of murder cases known to
be on docket at the opening of a ses-
sion of the court is seven.
OF the five murder cases to be heard,
only one defendant is white. The 9TH
ers are negroes. The presence of so
many negro murder cases on the dock
ct is explained by the fact that what
seemed to be an epidemic of crime
swept over the negroes of Lee county
last fall, resulting in the death of four
negroes at the hands of their OWE
race.
In comparison with the crimina
docket, the civil docket is light.
Judge T. A. Littlejohn, of Ameri
Gus, was on hand to preside over the
session with his usual splendid abilit!
and excellent judicial poise and acu
men. Solicitors General ]. R. Williams
was also at his post of duty Among
the Americus attorneys in attendanc,
at the session are Messrs. E. A. Hawk
irs, Hollis Fort and ]. B. Hudson.

POCKETS IN HATS
THE LATEST FAD
Where is the pocket?

Where is the pocket.
This will be the question asked by the
woman who goes shopping to provide her
self with new autumn millinery this year.
Hat pockets are novelty about to be in
troduced into London, the Daily MIR
ror of the British capital was told re-
Gently by a representative of large
west end establishment, and they will De
worn on the autumn and winter hats.
When women were hobbled by their
skirts that paper suggested many places
in which pockets could be made without
interfering with the line of the skirt
Noticeable among these the hat was
mentioned, and it was shown that peck
cts could be made inside the lining of q
hat. hidden among flower and foliage
trimming, or behind the big ribbon bows
with which they are adorned.
Now the suggestion has become real
ity, for in Paris pockets OF different
shapes and sizes are being worn arranged
in the scheme of millinery, and the huge
handbags which have been the mode art
losing favor.
These are more especially useful for ar
ticles that are not required continually
when a woman is wearing her hat, such
as the cigarette case, manicure nipple
ments, keys, postage stamps, buttonhooA
or pencils.
Money in. small coinage. too. can be
carried in the hat and it would need
considerable ingenuity on the part Of a
mysteries of millinery to pursue his call
ing.
1--WE shall have hats with pockets on
sale when we receive our autumn mil
linery," said representative OF the firm
before mentioned.

the back. The Ninichs ID rather an au-
dacious hat and distinctly fascinating.
The opposite sex to q man are lavish in
its praise, as much so as they are the
reverse of the disfguring pudding basin
toque. into. which head and hair are
packed as though. their owner were
ashamed of both. Now the Niniche makes
a fine display of couture and exacts some
graceful disposal of coils and curls.
Precisely what the autumn holds in
store for MS mifiinerially 1t is difficult to
say at the moment. but the trend seems
all in favor of small shapes. There is no
telling in these days. though. what star
Ting and unexpected fancy some slight
zephyr may not fan into a flame OF ap-
prevail, and it cannot be asserted by any
means that We are out Of the woods With
the bizarre enveloping toque. To grant
the latter its due. nothing could meet
the exigencies of travelling better-a fact
SO obvious it seems almost superhuous
to write about it. Quite the smartest
decorative relief is provided In upright
loops Of black and white striped ribbon
placed at one side of the back, the shape,
either white or natural straw. showing
tiny piping of color at the edge OF the
brim. And the almost inevitable accom-
paniment of these small hats is the nee
dle-run lace veil drawn closely around
the face and caught in the nape or the
neck with fancy bar brooch.

DISHES INVENTED
BY NINE. R0STAND

Edmond Rostand's fame as play
wright bids fair to be eclipsed by his
wife's growing reputation as COOK.
Nine. Rostand's culinary accomplish
ments have until recently been kept a
dark secret and the recipes are now pub
lished for the first time. :
Curiously enough, whenever the great
French playwright has written a new
drama his talented wife has been insptr-
ed to invent new dish.
Nine. Rostand, who is a poetess, loves
cooking almost as much as her husband
loves writing. At Arnaga, the sumptu-
Gus estate of the Rostands at Cambo, IN
the Basses-Pyrenees, she spends many an
enchanted hour among pots and pans. en-
veloped from head to foot in white linen.
Nine. Rostand's new dishes are always
named after her husbands new plays or
characters. There are in madames red
morocco cook book wonderfully tempting
dishes by the following names: Carrots
la Cyrano.' Chicken 1vers la
Chantecler." Peach Souffie la Roxane,"
"Fromage Romanesque,' Eggs a
TAiglon and Liver a la Hen Pheasant
These are some of the secret recipes,
and to prove how delicate is the secret
art OF the lovely Nine. Rostand one has
only to try them to see. But even when
made with the greatest care after the
recipes they will not taste quite like the
same things made by madame.
This is the way she makes Carrots a
la Cyrano." But first understand. IL you
don't already know, that carrots are a
highly honored vegetable in Paris. while
in this country they are somewhat de-
spised and looked upon as only fit for the
poor mans table or to be put in stews
and soups.
The tenderest. young, sweet carrots are
chosen. These are Scraped and boiled
tender. Then they are cut lengthwise in
halves, dipped in thickest honey and
placed in a baking dish, with the bottom
thinly covered with olive OIL Then they
are thinly sprinkled with grated cheese
and salt and placed in a hot oven and
Drowned over for perhaps fifteen minutes
Chicken Livers q la Chantecler" is a
more ambitious dish and is delicious
concoction of big Italian chestnuts and
chicken livers.

THE DAILY CHlT.CHAT.
BY Ruth Cameron.

These are the things prize
And hold Of deepest worth:
Light Of the sapphire skies,
Peace OF the silent hills.
Shelter of forest; comfort Of the. grass,
Music Of the birds. mnrmur OF little riiis,
Shadow Of clouds that swiftly pass,
And. after the shower.
The smell Of flowers
And OF the good brown EARTH
And, best Of all. along the way. friendship and
mirth Van Dyke.
Do you daily open your heart as fully
as possible to the influence OF the
serenity and the loneliness OF nature?
Few people really do. l think.
OF course, almost every one nova
days admires nature. To do so is style.
But l mean more than admire.
1t Is one thing to say detachedly,
THAT is a beautiful sunset or "How
lovely that river and those meadows
look
1t is quite another to be able to feel
an actual glow Of pleasure at the love-
illness Of the sunset sky. to be actually
soothed into serenity and peace by the
tranquil aspect of the river dreaming
along through the autumn meadows.
Il have lost many things that made
me happier in my life," woman said
to me the other day. Il do not have
so much that is interesting and excit-
ing nowadays, but l find that l have
grown older and my life has become
less active and crowded. and that is the
power of finding actual happiness in
the beauty OF nature. There was
time when it took some event, some
excitement or some expectation to give
me pleasure. l admired nature but
1 didn't enjoy 1t. Today. when 1 look
out on the long golden shadows of late
afternoon on my neighbours lawn. or see
an especially magnificent cloud effect
down by the river. or pass some lovely
garden. / not only admire it, but feel
actually happy over it,
Surely such a state OF mind Is worth
a thousand a year.
In a recent magazine article moth
er Of several children rejoices because
she thinks her children are going to
find their happiness in large interests
and small pleasures" as she knows that
il they get that point of view on life
they will always find it easy to be
happy.
Among the small pleasures she
counts love of nature. Although one
might quarrel with the adjective
small" one must surely applaud her
philosophy.
He who can be happy with large in
terests and small pleasures" will al
ways be happy. since these are free to
Cultivate a real joy in nature, a real
pleasure in it's beautiful aspects. in
stead OF a detached admiration, for
this can be cultivated.
Train yourself to open your mind
wide to natures influences OF tran
quillity and serenity-for the mind can
be thus trained-and you will have a
source of happiness and peace that no
circumstances. no possible turn of the
wheel of fortune. can ever take away
from you.
