Although there has been little ef-

has been increasingly open none Of
the state wide prohibitionists could
be prevailed upon to file bills under

meeting Of the farmers at Kedron,

era work in Maury county, states that
he was highly pleased with the recep.
ton that was rendered him and his
associates. In the course Of con-
versation in regard to the interest
shown, he said:
IF all the meetings we are to hold
are to be as enthusiastic and well at
tended as those of Thursday in the
third district, the work in this county
is only a matter OF time When the
farmers will run away from their
fields, that certainly need their imme-
diate attention, to attend meetings at
8, l and 8 o'clock. Their interest is
aroused and their Intentions are to
help as far as they can possibly do
SO to assist In the work of graduating
the hog scourge.
"Maury county farmers are to be
congratulated in the third district,
and if the balance of the county
shows the same spirit, shall try to
hasten the work of incubation by re-
questing that the Washington Office
permit the use of the serum in the
county at an earlier date than the

turns"
