Good Results From Tobacco.


Manning Times.
One Of the best results from the to-
bacco growing that we have learned
of this season was obtained by Mr..
NJ. w. Player Of Turbeville. He and
his sons planted seven acres, and
they realized from it $1,749.76, which
is an average Of $3.50 per acre, or
more than the value of four bales OF
cotton at present high prices. If a
farmer grows two bales Of cotton to
the acre his crop is spoken Of as one
of the wonders, but here is a farmer
who makes more than the value Of
twice two bales with but little more
labor and about the same expense.

The trial OF the alleged murderers
of former sheriff Ed Callahan o.
lireathitl County was begun a,
Winchester last week. The hrs,
trial of the suspected assassins tool
place several weeks ago and result,
ed 10 a hung jury, but since tina,
iiine there have been confessions
made that il is believed will clear
up all mystery surrounding the
murder and result in the conviction
OF the guilty party or parties, for
there are a number of men accused
of the crime either as aceomplices or
accessories before the killing.
These trials OF the feudists OF the
Kentucky mountains always bring
out more or less newspaper COM
II ent und isusually in an exaggerated
form. neither adhering to the truth
nor portray ing the true condition
or character of the citizens OF the
kentucky mountain section. In an
article appearing in Sundays issue
Of the Lexington Leader purported
TO be an interview with a promin.
ent citizen OF Winchester relative to
the mountaineers the writer de-
,cribes the conditions and accounts
or them in a manner which is full
OF common sense reasoning, and we,
" no have always lived in the noun.

manner in which these thoughts are
portrayed.
