property was circulated and got hun
dreds of signers. This petition was
ignored and the committee of firemen
bearing the petition to the meeting of
town council, was not permitted an
audience in the matter or allowed in
the meeting room.
This brought about more trouble,
and az the taxpayers of Waynesboro
were of the opinion that the town hall
was the property of the citizens of
Waynesboro, and their sympathies
were with the men who have been
protecting the town from fire for years
they took an appeal to the Court.
Judge Gillian granted a writ of injunc-
ton directed against the Burgess and
Town Council of Waynesboro, ,enjoin-
ing them from proceeding with the
sale of Firemen's Hall.
The injunction is preliminary, to be
made perpetual on final hearing We'd
nesday, December 22, should the court
be of the opinion that the complaint
set forth in the bill justifies.

$500. Will you undertake to get
up this amount of money to be
paid for the limestone? The plan
will be as follows.
Give of the leading farmers will
be selected in the various sections
of the county. These farmers will
be the leaders and will assist in se-
lecting four young men to form
the club in that vicinity. When
each of the FIVE farmers shall have
selected four young men, this will
give us club of twenty-five for
that county, and each of the twen-
ty-fve will be furnished with four
tons of limestone dust to be used
on one acre of ground, which will
be put in alfalfa clover.
"The division of extension and
this department expect to give per-
sonal supervision to see that the
leaders and their clubs are carry
ing out the instructions. BY this
means, we hope to prove beyond
question that alfalfa can be grown
in any section of the state.
"We should also like to have your
assistance in selecting the five
leaders for your county. We should
like for these to live within a ra.
dius of three miles of the Nash
vile, Chattanooga and st. Louis
Railway stations in Benton County.
"Kindly let us hear from you at
the earliest possible moment, be-
cause Mr.. McAmis, specialist in
agronomy, and myself will be in
Benton County the first week in
May.
Yours very truly,

Some children set FIRE to the
grass in the yard of the Baptist
Church Sunday morning, aud if it
had not been for the presence of
some of the older ones the church
would have been destroyed. The
fire communicated to a pile of
shingles near and under the church
and was gaining headway rapidly.
During dry spells like the present
it is prudent to be very careful in
handling matches or fire about the
premises.
