CLEVER bad CHECK,
ARTIST is ARRESTED
r. E. Coleman Said to Have Operated
in Several States Under Several
Aliases-Large Amounts.

Sheriff Howell of Early county has
succeeded in catching R. E. Cole
man, who is alleged to have forged
many checks
Coleman, who had been near
Blakely in the logging business for
several months, had an account at
the Farmers State Bank. His bust
ness relations were very satisfactory
until the latter part of November,
when he forged a cashiers check on
the First National Bank of Opp, Ala.
He skipped, however, before a reply
to the check was made
Cashier Cox and Sheriff Howell
put their heads together and finally
found that Coleman was operating in
Apalachicola, Fla, supposedly en-
gagged in the traffic of hides and furs.
As was his habit he deposited q
large check from distant firm, which
the cashier placed to his credit, but
Coleman's checking ability was here
stopped by the sheriff taking him in
charge. Requisition papers were Sc
cured and Sheriff Howell now has him
lodged in the Early county Jail.
He is alleged to have operated in
Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama, and
Florida under different names.

Gathering: We gather peanuts

for gathering running peanuts. 1t is
quite a success for gathering.

made the best success with running

made and gathered 80 bushels per
acre.
stacking: Have your stack poles
about feet above the ground and
stack the same day you pillow them
up, but don't stack yhile the dew is
on. Stack your peanuts so the nuts
will be next to the pole and fill your
pole hole up over the top and cap it
off with grass or heavy vines. Your
peanuts will keep indefinitely this
way.

money this year, having sold their

GEORGIA PECAN GROWERS
SEEKING FEDERAL AID
PARK LOOKING AFTER INTER
EST OF ASSOCIATION-ASKS
APPROPRIATION.

In spite of the ability of the United
States to produce all the English wal
nuts, black walnuts and pecans which
it can consume, and more, this coun-
try is importing every year between
sixty and seventy million pounds of
nuts.
At the request of the American
Nut Growers Association, Represen-
tative Frank Park of Georgia is seek
ing a congressional appropriation of
$4,000 to further this research
work j. NJ. Patterson of Putney,
Ca, vice president Of the nut grow
ers' association, is in Washington CO.
operating to that end.
New orchards of improved varie-
ties of pecans are coming into bear
ing in Georgia, but the satisfaction
over this result is tinged with dismay
at the appearance of insect pests.
Realizing the Importance of this
growing industry, the department of
agriculture last year expended SILL
600 in experimenting with cultural
problems, diseases and insect enemies
of the pecan. Twelve diseases and
eight separate insect pests are now
worrying the orchardist. Unless
methods of relief are found this con-
dition will greatly discourage a prom

We are annually importing be-

pounds of nuts, at a cost of between
S12, 100000 and 100000; while
we export nuts worth less than a half
million dollars. Why should we
spend millions of dollars each year
in buying nuts from foreign coun-
tries when we can grow the pecan

native or foreign, in unlimited guam

Some Good Pointers on
the Culture Of Peanuts

The Hartford (Ala.) News Herald
publishes the following letter, sent
out by a business man of Ozark to
his customers, which has some valua-
blepOinters on peanut culture that
will be of interest to those who are
planning to plant peanuts on large
scale this year:
Have your land well drained as
wet sobby land will not make good
peanuts. Break your land early.
About the 18th of March lay off with
a good middle buster or 1-2 feet;
let the land stay in this condition till
about April l, then get on top of the
bed with fertilizer distributor and put
in about 200 or 800 pounds acid phos-
phate to the acre. About the 30th of
April take your Cole Chain View pea
nut planter with your peanuts shelled
and run right through the acid phos-
phate furrow and drop the peanuts
8 or II inches apart, but don't plant
too deep and plant on top of bed.
Watch your peanuts, and just as
soon as you find they are sprouting
and getting ready to come up, run a
little Joe harrow over them, don't let
your peanuts come up in weeds fo1
if you do you will have a hard time
cultivating. Run harrow over the
rows just as often as you have rain
and see little weeds and grass cor.
ing through run over them with har-
row. If you should throw some little
dirt over the peanut they will come
through any way.
after your peanuts begin to
bunch run small scrape or sweep
around; be sure and don't get them
on a bed. Cultivate shallow and fiat,
keep cultivating with scrape or sweep
until they are laid by. You ought to
be able to cultivate then without put
ting hoe in them.

by the committee yesterday afternoon
following the regular session when

Mesopotamia and Arabia.
Equally known the note adds, are
the intrigues of the Entente conducted

partition of Turkey, In spite of the
principle of nationalities, which, as a
matter of fact, is a subject of indif-

own interests are at stake. The pro-

over Egypt, where the population Is
alien to the English race; the annexa-
