 Yet what has been done this year is but an inkling of the probabilities of the future. 1916 has been a wonderful year, but only in comparison with the past, and the years to come may far outstrip it.

Spears of Blevins, and S312. 82 was netted per acre on canta- loupes by Ira Brooks. of the same section, 1t is no vain hope that sees fortune in store for every active tiller of the soi! in this section of Arkansas. Or when one lone farm hand, physically weak, takes 30 acres of land, and unaided makes over $1200 worth of cotton, as was done by crop per on J. w. Silvey's farm in Taylor. sitownship, then no one need to fear the wolf if they but half try. And when a handful of farmers can use idle lands, and as a by-crop. raise 2000 bar rels of radishes, % cars of canta- loupes and 25 cars watermelons, bringing to them a netsreturn of over $50, GOO. %, as was done in this section, can you say that there. is limit to the possibili- ties of our country?
 But the money that is flowing into the hands of our people this fall,should not be....mistaken for easy money. It was hard. learned. It was made by men who worked by men who labored and by men who toiled. The idler is not sharing in the profits, nor will he ever be ableTto bring from the earth its wonderful resources.

Is 1t a violation OF law to transport
through Virginia larger amount of
spirits than the law permits one to
have in his possession?
Justice Crutchfleld decided yester-
day this was question which jury
should grapple with.
Six quarts of whiskey and a quart
OF gin found in possession of Charles
Purcell, colored. in the Main Street
erty Of e. I. Watson and o. H. Purvis.
of Cheraw, South Carolina, It was
learned yesterday. The men were en-
route to South Carolina from Balti-
moro. where they said they had been
sent to search for a negro wanted in
Chesterfield County. South Carolina,
for murder. They had taken the Pur-
cell negro with them as a spotter.
They had been unsuccessful In their
search, and had started back home
Thursday. taking the lidNor with
them.
Purvis and Watson said they came
down on a Richmond, fredericksburg
and Potomac train Thursday after
noon. and expected to leave a few
hours later for South Carolina They
left the negro at the station In charge
OF the spirits, and went for a stroll
about tho city. Policemen Brown and
Spur, making the rounds of the sta
tfon, were attracted to Purcell, and
upon investigation discovered the
liquor He was taken into custody.
and later Watson and Purvts were
arrested.
After hearing the case Justice
Crutchfield yesterday decided to hold
all three defendants for the grand
Jury. Gilbert Pollock, counsel for the
defense. insisted that the men were
within the law since they were merely
carrying the liquor through Virginia.
This is the first case of the kind since
Virginia went dry. and when it comes
up for trial will test whether or not
liquor can be carried through the
State IN larger quantity than that al
lowed by law to be kept by residents.
The men were bailed yesterday
morning for their appearance In the
Hastings Court, and last night left for
their homes In South Carolina.
