Every one admits that W. P. Rid.
ley, the proprietor Of Clifton Place
is one of the best and most progress
sive farmers of the county, but few
are familiar with the fact that hif
charming wife is also an exception
ally fine gardener. However, in the
production of sweet potatoes this
year she has demonstrated that fact
and further many claim that In view
Of the record she has made that she
is even a better gardener than Mr..
Ridley is a farmer. Mrs. Ridley has
just commenced to garner her sweet
potato crop. From one hill there
were taken out no less than seven
large, well matured potatoes, weigh
ing in the aggregate fifteen pounds
Four hills make over bushel. Since
there are more than 5000 potato bills
to the acre this means yield Of 900
bushels. Potatoes are now worth SO
cents a bushel, hence on one acre
there is a yield Of $500 Of produce
And yet there are some people who
wonder at the high price OF Maury

ELOQUENT LEADER OF A. N. E.
CHURCH DELIVERS STRONG
MESSAGE. "A
EVILS OF LIQUOR TO RACE
Divine Tells His People What They
Have Suffered From Intemperance
and Advises Them to Stand With
Best Element of White Folks.

At the close Of strong and elo-
quent sermon at st. Paul's A. nj. Il.
church on Tuesday night to an audi
ence that packed the auditorium,
Bishop Jones, of Ohio, who will hold
the A. M. e. conference at Mt. Pleas
ant this week, made an earnest ap-
peal to his race to stand by the cause
of temperance and against the saloon
and lawlessness in the state. His
appeal was answered by the most en-
thusiastic applause from both the
men and women present.
The bishop is a strong speaker. He
is one of the really able men Of his
race. He has strong voice, one
that has the music so peculiar to his
race. He had preached good gos-
pei message when he stated that he
had been long time getting here and
it might be thousand years before
he came again, and while he was here
he wanted to give them a word OF az
vice touching the greatest evil that
the negro race had ever known and
then spoke Of the evil that had been
wrought upon his people by saloons
and 1awlessness. He advised them
to stand with the good people, ana
with those candidates for office who
have set their faces against this In
famous traffic.
Bishop Jones stated that he has
just finished campaign OF Ohio for
Temperance and that the same issue
was presented in Tennessee. His
people, he said, should stand by the
white people who have recognized the
evil that liquor has done to the col
ored folks. He urged them to stand
loyalty for the rigid enforcement or
the laws
Bishop Jones went to Mt. Pleasant
this morning where he will hold the
A. M. E. conference for the coming
week. He stated that when the COM
mittee on temperance reported that
he would have something more to say
on the question at issue
