Demonstration Ellis received in
formation last Saturday afternoon
that special train will be run from
Dresden to Jackson, via Hollow
Rock, today friday for the
benefit Of the Weakley county farm
ers who wish to spend the day at
the experiment station, this being
Weakley county day. Mr.. Ellis
did not get this information in time
to make publication last week
the letter reaching him on Satur'
day, and many farmers, therefore
who would like to 60 will not gel
the news in time. The rate is
81 so for the round trip, the train
leaving Dresden at 6 a. m.
Delegations from Weakley
Carroll and Henry will be on this
train. Special lecturers have beer
secured for the experiment station
who will make addresses to th(
visiting farmers.

Corn Club Rally

Corn club boys over the county

corn club rally, to be held at
Boyd's grove, near the fair
ground, on Saturday, July 20,
The exercises will be held in
this beautiful grove and about 2
o'clock the boys will march into
town, around the square and then
to Testers place, where it is
hoped to arrange a good show for
them, Let all bring dinner. Some
of you were mistaken last year,
thinking the Enterprise had an
nounced dinner would be prepar-
ed here for the corn club boys.
The Enterprise did not say this.
So bring a lunch this time and
you will not be disappointed. Mr..
Ellis hopes to make this most
interesting and profitable occasion
for the corn club boys. Why not
have the canning club girls meet
here, too, that day?

Fail to Pay Poll Tay.

jackson, Tenn, July 6,-Seven
thousand citizens of Madison coun.
ty will be disqualified from voting
in the state and county elections
of August 3. by their failure to
pay their poll tax thirty days be-
fore the election, according to the
records in the office Of Trustee
Pearson. Only six thousand of
the $4,000 possible poll tax re-
ceipts have been issued. OF 1000
poll tax assessments in the city OF
Jackson only $40 have been paid,
but no city election has vet been
called and the failure to pay the
city poll tax does not disqualify
the voter in the state and county
elections.

WhitlOck Not Given
A Square Deal.

AT a mass meeting in Paris last
Monday the Henry county demo.
Gratis unanimously endorsed I. ii.
Whitlock, the Candidate from
Henry county, as the floterial
candidate to represent Henry,
Carroll and Weakley counties IN
the sixth general assembly. Henry
county's twenty-five delegates were
thereupon instructed to cast their
vote accordingly at the convention
which conyenes at Mckenzie on
next Friday, July IA.
Howevery, simultaneous with
the Henry county mass meeting,
a similar meeting was held IN
Huntingdon and in Dresden and
at both these meetings the dele
gates were instructed for I. K.
Reynolds, the present incumbent.
Carroll county has eighteen dele
gates and Weakley has twenty
eight, both together having a total
of torty-six, while Henry county
has only twenty-five. Thus, un-
less there is an unusual turn of
affairs, Henry county's candidate,
ESQ. T. H. Whitlock, will miss
the nomination. According to
local democratic leaders, this is
not giving Henry county square
deal, as it is Henrysscountv's time
to furnish a Aoterial candidate in
accordance with a precedent OF
many years existence. 1t may
be, therefore, Henry county will

Local Bar Endorses
FINS ]. Garrett

At meeting OF the local bar,
held on Friday at the courthouse,
a resolution was adopted by a
unanimous vote endorsing Mr..
Garrett for reelection to congress
from this district, the primary to
be held Thursday, August 3.
The meeting was presided over
by Mr.. Herbert Jones, with At
torney John McWherter as secre-
tary. Judge Maiden, Judge Jones,
Attorneys Suddath, Harry Jones,
RI. Lewis j. R. and A. G. Thoma-
son and other attorneys all made
brief talks, pledging active support
to Mr.. CARROTS candidacy.
1t was brought out at this meet
ing that Mr.. Garrett, being q
leading member OF the democratic
delegation, is detained at Washing
ton and cannot devote his time to
a canvass Of tie district, therefore
his friends will look after his
interests in his absence. In this
connection Mr.. Garrett was COM
plimented for remaining at his
post Of duty.
A general campaign committee
for the county was appointed as
follows: W. W. House, chairman;
r. L. Suddath, Lee Bras6eld, j.
r. Welch and Geo. M. Brooks.
This meeting brought out the
further fact that Mr.. Garrett will
have his old.time strength at Dres-
den, his home town, where he is
loved and esteemed; as we'll as
over the county in general.

Good Progress Of
Cotton is Reported.

The cotton crop has made good
progress during the last fortnight,
according to reports from cores
pondents OF the Commercial APP
peal. The plant, as a rule, is
strong and healthy, and although
averaging somewhat late, is grow
ing rapidly, and in most cases is
beginning to fruit satisfactorily.
There are several complaints OF
too much rain in the eastern states,
but these are in a minority, and
even in these states good progress
was made. These reports, how
ever, were mailed before the rains
from the gulf storm visited the
country. There are also some
complaints from grassy fields and
snappy plants from practically all
states, but these are few in num-
Der and are the result OF too much
rainfall in widely scattered Sec
tons.
Boil weevil are reported from
practically all previously infested
areas, and in most sections they
are increasing rapidly. To date,
however, damage from this source
has been light.
