GOOD WHEAT CROP
Irrelevant Farmer Makes Fine
Yield This Year

A special from Irrelevant to the
Commercial Appeal of last Tues
day says:
The biggest crop of wheat grown
by any one man in this section for
a number of wears has gust been
threshed by G. j. Wingo of near
Trezevant. Mr.. Wingo's crop yield
ed him l,2l9 bushels. He had sixty
acres in wheat and it averaged d
fraction over 90 bushels per acre.
One car of wheat has already been
shipped by Mr.. Wingo to the mills
for immediate use in making flour.
Last years corn crop was the
biggest ever grown, perhaps, in
this section, and the prospects for
another bumper crop are very ia
vorable at this time. The acreage
is large and the corn has a good
color and so far there has been
sufficient moisture to keep the
crop growing off satisfactorily.
More corn has been shipped away
from this place this spring than
ever before.

TELEGRAM LINES
President Recommends Taxi &
Over Telegraph Lines

Government control and opera
tion of the nations telegraph and
telephone systems was recon-
mended to congress Monday by
President Wilson.
In the face of an impending
strike of union operators employed
by the Western Union company,
an effort will be made to put
through, before the recess of cor
gress this week, pending legisla-
ton empowering the president to
take over these systems.
The presidents views we're COM
municated in brief note endors-
ing the legislation, but making no
reference to the strike of Western
Union operators, called for July
5 by the Commercial Telegraphers'
union after the Western Union
had refused to abide by the rul-
ings of the war board on the dis
charge of union operators.
The people are growing tired Of
the constant demands Of labor
unions and organizations and the
spirit manifested toward the coun-
try BY them. and the almost IN
bearable service being rendered
by the companies, all of which
makes change desirable. The
condition could hardly be made
worse.

HEAVY FIRE LOSS
Sunday Morning Fire Badly
Damages Yuma

Yuma, on the Paducah and
Memphis division of the Nashville,
Chattanooga & St. Louis railway,
was badly damaged by fire last
Sunday morning.
The fire was discovered just
after midnight, having originated
in the store of G. NJ. Cary, and
when discovered the smoke in the
building was so dense that the ex.
act place or origin could not tie
told.
The group of brick buildings
occupied by G. NJ. Cary, Lynn
Bolen and Lem Wall was COM
pletely destroyed and the building
of the Cotton Growers Bank was
badly damaged. The stock of
goods owned by Mr.. Cary was a
total loss. but a portion of the
goods Of Mr. Wall aud also Mr..
Bolen was saved.
The stocks, we understand, were
we'll covered by insurance, but the
buildings, owned by Lem Wall,
were only partially covered.
1t is not known how the fire or
iginated. 1t is only through the
hard fighting of the citizens, who
gathered and applied water freely,
that the bank building was not
more seriously damaged and that
the flames did not reach other
buildings.
The loss was about $4,000 and
is a severe blow to the town and
community and is greatly re-
GREETED.

Legislative Candidates

There will be two republican
candidates for the nomination for
representative from this county in
the August primary. VIC. Nc
Auley, of Trezeyant, the present
representative and g. W. Brooks,
of Atwood, have each qualified and
will seek the nomination, j. Matt
Thomas has been urged to permit
his name to 90 before the people
for this position, and his friends
have had him qualify before the
primary. In view OF the fact that
the democrats have made 40 effort
to have candidates enter for the
county offices it would be highly
the proper thing for the republi-
cans to refrain from putting out a
candidate for the legislature and
let Mr.. Thomas have a clear field

BIGGEST MONEY DAY
Enormous Appropriation Bills are
Passed by Congress

Saturday was S2l, 10000, 900
day congress the biggest mon
ey day" IN the history Of any leg
islativesbody in the worlds his
tory.
opurred on BY the fact that Che
fiscal year ended Sunday and that
this week the government would
be without funds to continue the
war unless the big supply bills
pass at once, senate and house lead
ers' whipped both bodies into top
speed action. The desire to recess
this week for six weeks contribute
ed to the acceleration.
The usual delIoerate senate set
the pace by:
Passing the $l2,0O0,OOo,OOO
army bill.
Adopting the conference report
on the 1000, 100000 sundry civil
bill.
Giving the final 0. X. to the
81 ,500.OO0,000 naval appropriation
bill.
Passing the S., 900, 900 for
ti6catlons bill.
This made effective, so far as
the senate is concerned, $2l,500,-
100000 in appropriations, the bulk
of it for the prosecution of the
war.
The house helped by adopting
the 81, 100000, 900 navy bill con-
ference report, the sundry civil
report and deciding not to let this
legislative day end until the army
bill had passed, continued its SEES
sion on into the night.
Not moments debate was re-
quired to put the Notifications bill
through the senate. Most of the
money it appropriates goes to buy
artillery and ammunition for Per-
shing's army.

JULY QUARTERLY COURT
One Of Most Important Sessions
Held Ia Years

The July term of the quarterly
court Of Carroll county was held
last Monday and it proved to be
one of the most important that has
been held in many years. The
county has such a habit Of going
over the top that the court de-
cided to treat big questions along
che same line.
The question of issuing $4,000
in bonds to supplement an equal
sum from the federal and state
governments to build two high
ways through the county. the
Memphis-to-B Bristol and one from
Henry to Henderson county, both
passing through Huntingdon, was
brought before the court for con.
sideration after the noon recess,
The resolutions authorizing the
county to issue the bonds were read
before the court and spoken to by
several members of the body. Mr..
Nelson. a member of the State
Good Roads Commission, was
present and made talk explain.
ing the law and answered a num-
Der of questions propounded by
the court. No one spoke in oppo-
sition to the proposition, and when
the vote was taken no one voted
against it.
The good roads friends had done
some faithful work in the interest
of the proposition and we're greatly
rejoiced when the action of the
court was recorded.
The court came to the help of
the coanty agricultural fair propo-
sition by appropriating $3.50 for
premiums to be offered on agricul-
tural products and poultry. The
proposition provides that this
amount will be given provided the
town Of Huntingdon defray the
other expenses Of the fair. The
fair is to be held some time this
fall.
The regular routine of business
was transacted. Several commits
sions to have road, bridges and
leyee work done were appointed
and considerable amount of work
is to be done along this line this
summer and fall.
1t was the last term OF the pres
ent court, as q new court willmbe
elected in August. 1t is presumed
that at least large per cent of the
present court will be reelected,
as they are all good men

Carroll County Boys in Thickest
of the Fight

1t has developed that three Car

dozen men returned without feel
ing the effects of the enemy's fire.

bothoof Trezevant, were wounded
and bullet passed through the
clothing of James Goodwin, of
the same place. A bullet bit
