FACTS AND
FIGURES THAT
SURPRISE YOU
BALDWIN COUNTY HAS SOME
FARM AND TRUCKING STORIES
THAT MAKE YOU "sIT UP"

When you touch on the subject of
energy and enterprise, and what the
soil will do for the people who treat
if right in Baldwin, Bay Minette peo-
pie are going to tell you about what
15-year- old girl did just this sum
mer in the way of raising cotton.
Alice Jernigan is the 15-year- old
daughter of Jno Jernigan, who lives
at Gateswood-
Not so many weeks ago Alice drove
into Bay Minette and sold two bales
CT splendid cotton which she had per-
sonaIly raised and picked, and the
financial results Of the trade which
she made in Bay. Minette are to see
her through the state normal at Daph-
ne during the coming school year.
You are going to hear Of Miss Alice
again some day, not as a struggling
girl by the way. but as remarkable
and useful and splendid woman.

BALDWIN COUNTY PROSPECTS
ARE THE FINEST IN THE
WORLD, AND GREAT RESULTS
ARE EXPECTED.

In any country where winters are
short and mild and where grasses and
forage grow in abundance cattle rails
ing becomes one of the principal lines
of the live stock farming.
One OF the essentials Of successful
cattle raising is we'll bred or high-bred
animals, not necessary all registered
animals. The COWS may be grades Or
selected scrubs to begin with but the
head Of the herd should be registered
and a we'll developed beef type bull for
developing a herd Of beef cattle or a
registered well-developed dairy type
bull for the dairy herd. Alabama is
short on registered beef herds, yet no
great difficulty will be encountered in
securing registered beef bulls to head
herds. AS to dairy bulls one can find
numbers of highly bred dairy herds in
southeast Alabama-especially Of the
Jersey breed. Holsteins, Gurnseys, otc,
are not SO numerous. Nearly all ma
tive cattle OF southeast Alabama have
more or less Jersey blood in them
While milk cows are scarce IL is pos
sible for a new man or farmer to find
sufnc1ent COWS 10 sLart q nero Let
me add here that the great demand
for milk, cream and butter is so great
in the larger cities OF Alabama that
the dairy business is a most inviting
opening for immigrants who know the
dairy and its work.
Concentrated feeds for cattle can be
produced or bought in Alabama. Corn
can be made here about as cheap as
anywhere Cotton seed meal IL also
as cheap here as In other states
Wheat bran and shorts may be rela-
lively high since they are not distinct
" Alabama products. But there are
other feeds that will take their place

Her students rank we'll at the higher
institutions of the state. Many Of the
best teachers OF this county. and some
OF state and even national reputation,
have received their secondary instruc-
ton here. Last year courses In do
nestle science and manual training
were introduced. Through the efforts
Of the School improvement AEsocia-
ton, a modern kitchen has been
equipped. This year II Is hoped that
much more can be done along that
line
One Of the best assets the school has
is the School Improvement Associa-
ton. 1t has a membership OF about
80. Last year the School Improve
ment Association alone spent about
$3.50 in identifying the grounds and
purchasing a piano The town also
new equipment The Improvement as
ISOLATION is now spending 5000 In
painting the interior walls.
Last year the dentists of the town
made a free dental examination OF the
mouths Of all the children, and a chart
showing the condition OF the teeth OF
each child was sent to the parents.
The hookworm specialist was also In
vited to make an examination OF the
school and many cases were success
fully treated.
The school also had two live tomato
and corn clubs. One boy and one girl
got a trip to Washington, besides
many other valuable prizes.
The year 1884 bids fair to be the
best in the history Of the school. The
faculty for the year 1924 Is:
S. NJ. Tharp, principal; ninth and
tenth grades.
Miss Frances L. Northcutt seventh
and eighth grades.
Miss Ella White part of hfth and
sixth grades.
Miss Lila Simmons, part of fourth
and fifth grades.
Miss Frances Fleming, third grade.
Miss Helen Holt, second grade.

The Bay Minette Graded School
B y S. M. Thorp

For the last decade or two, Baldwin
county has been making wonderful
strides along agricultural lines. Her
magnificent forests Of pine have been
cut and converted into lumber. The
lands thus left bare were thought to
be almost valueless at first, but scien-
tiflc farming has shown to the world
that there are no greater possibilities
along the lines of agriculture than in
Baldwin county.
Her schools have kept rapid pace
with her progressive farming. Under
the efficient administration Of the
present county superintendent, ]. S.
Lambert, the number of schools has
increased, the term has been length
ened considerably, better school houses
have been erected teachers salaries
have been almost doubled, better
teachers are employed, and a health
full educational spirit has been built
up.
No town or community in the coun-
ty has felt the effects of this progress
sive spirit more than Bay Minette.
Her school is considered equal to any
and excelled by none in the county.
UP to 1901, the school was conducted
in small, implanted three-room
building very poorly equipped, with no
playground. In 1901 the town pur-
chased the present site and built
thereon the building now occupied by
the school. 1t contains six very large
recitation rooms and a commodious
auditorium, all of which are we'll
equipped. Last year, on account of
the increased attendance. the town
was forced TO build an annex for the
primary and music departments
The attendance has been rapidly in
creasing. In 1909-1O the average at
tendance for the year was 1913; in
1901, $50, and in billie it was over
200. In 19O9-1o there were only six
and in 1911-12 there were
eight.
The school has an excellent curricu-
lum. 1t is recognized as an auxiliary
school of the University of Alabama.

ton farm is the one now that is at
tracing the largest attention. The
plant itself is a model one. The barn
is les feet long by Sc feet on each end
with a center so feet in width. 1t IS
modern in every respect. The floors
are of concrete, all built TO drain off
| into a drainage tank or pool in the
ground and from this tank the con-
tents will be pumped out and put upon
the soil as fertilizer. Manure carriers
hang from an overhead track and the
dry fertilizer is carried out by gravity
and dumped into a patent spreader
and then put onto the SOIL
The milk is taken out and the feed
is brought in by similar carriers (the
James patent) and the cid unsanitaTy
and wasteful method of doing all OF
this work is entirely suppianted by
the modern, sanitary, and easy method
which science and invention have pro-
vided.
The cows are MIXED by the patent

barn. the floors are of cement and the
windows and doors are perfectly
screened. No method or appliance
known to modern science for the pur-

for the accurate testing and complete
fertilization of milk has been over

In fact there is not a dairy plant,
North or South, that can excel this
modern Baldwin county dairy which
the Southern States Lumber Company
will shortly open for business.

The cultivated pecan tree is proving
a generous source Of income to all who
are undertaking the planting and care
OF pecan orchards. As to the adapt
ability OF the soil of Alabama for Pc
can culture, Prof p F. Williams. hor-
ticulturalist of the Alabama Po1yteeh-
mic Institute, has written the follow
ing:
Modern pecan planting and growing
has introduced profitable industry in
the southern states. Northern capital
lists are Investing in large paintings
and pecan orchards of hundreds OF
acres in extent are appearing through
out the South. There Is no reason why
southern capital should not be turned
this way and thus be kept at home.
The pecan Is bound to be leader
among the orchard fruits of the flu
ture. All nuts have a great food value
and for this reason alone pecan grow
ing should be profitable. There seems
TO be at present a greater interest in
pecan culture than in any other horti-
cultural pursuit. It is not the purpose
OF this bulletin to go into the detail
of the various methods of propaga-
ton, varieties. etc, but rather to give
some of the facts which have been re-
corded since the industry started.
Generally speaking the range OF the
pecan is confined to the cotton belt
However, we have records OF pecan
trees growing as far north as Niagara
Falls and in the Arnold Arboretum, at
Boston Mass. In the latter instances,
however, although the trees seem hard
~ they have not as yet fruited and It
is questionable whether they can as
far north as this.
There are records of splendid seed
ling trees in about every section of the
state and they often attain an age Of
hun6EAas @6 years and In favorable
