LESS COTTON PLANTED
IN HENRY THIS YEAR

In the report of the cotton
crop this year of the Commercial
the following from the Paris
correspondent appeared:
The abundance of rain within
the last 10 days has been too
much for the best growth of
cotton; however, the crop is not
damaged. Only about so per
cent as much cotton was planted
this year as last year, owing to
the low price and short sales in
cotton last year, but the amount
planted has a good, sturdy start
and the sturdy soil is in better
condition for cotton than it has
been in Henry County for several
years. The plants are healthy
and the fields present general
cleanliness, due, no doubt, to the
new methods of farming and the
awakening of the farmer and
cropper to an up-to-date method
of cultivation. So far no insect
pests of any kind have been
found on the cotton and the far
mers are optimistic over this
year.

CHILD KILLED IN
STORM FRIDAY
Daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Amos
Grooms the Victim, Skull
Crushed by Limb.

The l1-year. old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Amos Grooms lost
her life Friday afternoon as a re-
suit of a storm of cyclonic proper
tions which swept narrow path
through their home neighbor-
hood. one mile south of Cottage
Grove, in this county. The lit
tie girl and her sister were in the
yard watching the approach of
the storm when the wind blew a
large bough from the oak under
which they were standing, the
limb crushing the younger girls
skull almost out of human SEM
blance and killing her instantly,
while her sister, but a few feet
away, escaped unscratched. In
that section the boards on houses
and barns were blown off, trees
RACED to the ground, the tele-
phone lines crippled and the
poles fallen. In Paris the wind
was less of a gale, but limbs
were blown from a number of
trees and a part of the terra Gotta
and iron work on the west side
of court square, topping Erwin
Bros. grocery, were blown down,
falling on the pavement, where
but a few moments before num-
bers of women had hurried past
from the Chautauqua tent, ap-
pretending the storm. In the
Chautauqua tent hundreds of
women were frightened by the
gale, hut remained surprisingly
calm.
