UNCLE HENNERY's SAY"

There was a man who had his say.
about the pro-campaign,
But when ne wa done, his say was 80
bum he wouldn't sign his name.
We think he thought when his pen had
wrought. Of a mother who prayed
70 save him.
And he wouldn't stain her innocent
name, a part Of which she gave MIN.
So boys If you are wrong, and your
reasoning is bum,
Doesn't make any difference how

Some Of Lee County's Prominent Citizens

Governor Smith during his first
term as Governor.
From the Governors Office Mr..
Hoyl moved to his farm in Lee
county for much needed rest and
intended remaining thereon for {
year or more, but while there he was
prevailed upon to allow his name
for the office of City Court Solicitor
of I.eesburg and was elected with.
out opposition. So acceptably has
he filled this important Office to the
satisfaction of the people that he
was again selected solicitor without
opposition, and is now serving his
second term.
Mr.. Hoyl is one of the leading
practitioners of law in the state and
besides being Solicitor of the City
Court of Leesburg enjoys a large
and lucrative practice throughout
the Southwestern Circuit, and there
is no doubt but that he is one of
the best versed among the legal tai
ent.
Mr.. Hoyl makes known no in
tention of the future in regard to
his candidacy for reelection, but as
time tells all things it is likely that
the people Of Lee will hear from him
at the proper time. He is well
for Solicitor or any other
Office to which he might consent to
aspire, and win in the future as
well as in the past serve the county
honestly and faithfully should he he
again called upon.
Mr.. Hoyl was married in Novem-
Der, 1908, to Miss Eloise Cooke, the
daughter of Mr.. ]. F. Cooke. -Four
children have been born, all girls.
Mr.. Hoyl, with his family
moved to Leesburg the beginning of
the first Of last year, and the people
Of Leesburg welcome them.

Tobacco as a Money Crop

planted as an experiment this
year four rows about thirty yards on
fairly good land with my little com
mercial fertilizer. The plants were
given to me by Mr.. Jackson of the
Central r. R. agricultural depart
ment, and it grew off nicely from
the start. 1t was only plowed twice
and hoed the same number of times
and cultivated just like corn which
makes it a very inexpensive crop to
grow. 1t is a white mans crop as
it requires constant attention during
the growing season, and about six
acres is all one man can care for.
! 1t must be wormed-topped and sue
cors kept pulled off in order to
develope large leaves at the top.
The plant is a grass feeder and guano
must be high grade and contain
considerable potash, which is hard
to get on account of the European
war as all of our potash comes from
Germany. While up in Virginia
and North Carolina in June talked
with many tobacco farmers and they
were complaining about the price
which luns from Sc to 15c per h.,
but claimed to make more money
than can be made in cotton. In 80
days from planting you can rattle
the dollars. An acre will make one
thousand to eighteen hundred
pounds and even at 10 cents it beats
cotton out of sight, being a short
and inexpensive crop to grow while
cotton requires about seven more to
grow aud lot of time together, gin
and market.
Drying houses are necessary. In
Virginia they are made of skinned
logs and all the cracks daubed up
air tight with red clay. I am not
posted as to the cost of the furnace
and fiues, but that fact can be easily
obtained. By converting a cotton
warehouse into a tobacco warehouse,
buyers would come to Leesburg and

James Bascom Hoyl, the efficient
prosecuting attorney of the City
Court Of Lessburg, was born in
Dawson, Ga, March Goth, 1875.
After receiving an education at the
Dawson Public Schools he took a
shorthand course at the Southern
University in Atlanta. His know
ledge Of shorthand fitted him to
hold down one of the best positions
and he returned home and after
five years work accumulated suffi-
Gent f6nds to defray his expenses
through college. He entered Emory
and graduated with the class Of
1900, receiving B. phi, degree.
Leaving Emory, Mr.. Hoyl ac-
cepted a government position in
Washington and while at work there
found time to attend the law de-
partment Of the National University,
receiving his LIB. degree in
1902. He resigned his government
position and returned to his home
in Dawson for the practice of law.
After one years practice in Dawson
he moved to Atlanta and was as
