weather. Not since the first of Dec
ember away back in the distant rast,
seemingly years instead Of months
ago, has there been any time when
"out of doors" was really enjoyable.
But Sunday ushered in genuine
change. The temperature was high
er than in months, the sun shone all
day long without a feck of cloud to
mar it's brilliancy. And the grass
fairly jumped during the day. Where
two days ago the surface Of the earth
had a drab and gloomy appearance
IL is now coated with beautiful green
and the cows are once more dream
ing of browsing on the green. the
small boy is thinking Of fishing
worms and young men of love.
With the coming of the dawn this
morning the farmers of old Maury
began to take advantage Of the
weather Flows were started in
hundreds of fields and sowing oats
and clover is the order of the day.
If the weather should continue as it
is now for the remainder of the
week, by Saturday night most of the
cats will be sown, ii good deal of
Roadway will be made in the plant
ing of potatoes and gardens will be
planted.
There has not been time in years
when farm work was as far behind
al this season as it is now and the
farmers are getting ready to double
up and try to take advantage Of
what time the sun does shine. This
is the first time in years that the
latter part of March has found the
farmers without either oats or pota-
toes or gardens planted and it is 60
ing to take some lively hustling,
even with favorable weather to get
these crops in the ground before first

BARKER. CHARGES
CARS ARE SHORT
DECLARES THAT /. & NJ. RAIL
ROAD IS DISCRIMINATING
AGAINST COLUMBIA.

Discrimination against Columbia In
the matter of furnishing poultry cars
for shipments Is the charge made
against the Louisville & Nashville
railroad by William Barker, of the
Barker Produce Company. Mr.. Bar
ker was hot after cars Thursday ana
appealed to Frank Avent, of the Ten
nessee Railroad Commission, and
also to the interstate commerce COM
mission at Washington for relief. FL
nally he procured a car. However.
Mr.. Barker is very much wrought up
over the matter and is certain that
there must be some effort on the part
Of the railroad company to leave Co
iumbia out of the calculation.
In substantiation Of his charges
Mr.. Barker says that he and other
dealers were able to get cars order
ed after he sent in the order here
for delivery at other places. He says
that cars hac been obtained at West
Point and at Pulaski and other
places but his order for a car hero
given Ave days before had not beea
filled while the others had been So
cured
Mr.. Barker took, the matter up on
Thursday with Frank Avent, Of the
Tennessee Railroad Commission, and
Mr.. Avent at once communicated
with the railroad oficials and relief,
it is understood, was promised. Mr..
Barker also sent q telegram to the
interstate commerce commission. Mr..
Barker stated that the railroad ONO
ials had promised relief but had Civ
en- no satisfactory explanation Of the
delay In sending forward the cars.

PEACH CROP
IS DAMAGED
GROWERS SAY COLD WEATHER
KILLED BUDS IN DAVIDSON
COUNTY.

NASHVILLE, Mar. 15.-While
there is at present every indication
OF great crops in Middle Tennessee
this year, in such fruits as apples,
rlums and pears, the peach crop has
been almost completely, if not en-
tirely,. ruined. according to a state
ment made by James ]. Hill, Of the
Hill Produce Co., who Is one Of the
largest fruit growers in Davidson
county. Mr. Hill, who has a large
peach ordchard, states that he has
examined the buds on his trees and
found that every one that he opened
was dead.
The extreme cold weather in Feb.
ruary is the cause of the killing OF
the peach buds, according to Mr.. HILL
This weather did not affect the
harder buds Of the apple, pear and
plum trees, however.
Unless there is a long cold spell
later this year, Mr.. Hill expects that
there will be a banner crop of all
fruits except peaches. AS the peach
crop forms only very small part OF
the fruit production of Middle Ten.
nossee, Mr.. Hill states, the failure OF
the crop this year would not occasion
any general DISTRESS. 1t will proba
bly, mean, however, quite an advance
