NEXT FOREMAN OF
GRAND JURY WILL
SERVE TWO YEARS
RADICAL CHANGE MADE BY LEG.
lSLATURE IN COURT ORGAN.
iZATlON.
WILL RECEIVE s4.OO PER DAY
During Time That Jurors Are In Ses-
sion and Is Expected to Aid in the
Enforcement of the Law During Va.
cation Time.

! At the next term of the circuit court
for this county Judge Turner will
have to appoint permanent foreman
Of the grand jury, whose term of Office
will be for two years. Provision for
this officer is made in an act passed
by the. present legislature and which
took effect on February IS, after the
present session of the court conven-
ed, so that in SO far as Maury county
is concerned the act will not apply un-
til the May term.
This act will work quite an inno-
vation, as from time immemorial, the
foreman has been selected each term
and from the regular membership of
the grand jury But under the, terms
of this act his tenure of office will be
as long as that of the sheriff. For
his services he will receive $4 per
day every day that he is on duty.
In order to be qualified for appoint
ment as foreman of the grand jury
under the act, one must be twenty-five
years of age and be "a good and law
full man" and have the other qualif-
cations already provided for jury SER
vice. That is he must householder
or freeholder, 1t is presumed Judge
Turner will determine whether or not
his appointee is a good man" The
Judge might, however, be mistaken,
but If he is, a remedy is provided, for
he has the power to remove his fore
man at any time for good and suffi-
cient cause.
1t Is made the duty of this fore
man to aid in ferreting out crime
even between court terms and to aTe.-
port to. the district attorney the names
of witnesses who might know of
something that has been done against
the peace and dignity of the state"

THIRTY DOLLARS AN
ACRE CRIMSON GLOVER
OFFER OF THAT AMOUNT FOR
SINGLE CROP REFUSED
BY OWNER.

Asf a-
That there Is big money in crimson
clover was again shown when Austin
M, Harlan, justice of the peace from
the Eighth district, and one of the
most conservative and successful
farmers of the county, offered Dawse
Frierson $1,750 for sixty acre field
of crimson clover. The offer was re-
fused, Mr.. Frierson asking $4,000 for
the field. Thirty dollars an acre for
one crop with all the risk of gathering
assumed proves the value Of this le-
gume. But that is not all, for the
land will be immensely improved by
the plant. Mr.. Harlan intended to run
several car loads of hogs on the clover
and later on cut it for seed. 1t is un-
derstood that Mr.. Frierson is now
going to carry out that plan. The field
is pronounced one of the finest of the
legume ever grown in the county.

Generally the Institutions of Maury

extravaganza in one or two cases. All
of the bonds of the county officials,

The Jail was given clean bill OF

oners were well fed and treated. The
same comment was made on the work
house, but it was added that the in
sutton should be more economically
operated as there were too many EN-
ployes in proportion to the number of
inmates. 1t was recommended that
the prisoners be kept at the Jail and
worked from that place.
Criticism was directed at the poor
house because it was stated that too
many head of horses were kept. 1t
was recommended that the county
purchase and own its work stock 1t
was reported that some of the inmates
had worked on another farm, but
this was explained by the superinten-

nouncing that they expect TO hold un-
til they can get 81. An order received
by broker here for several car loads
at prevailing market prices could not
be filled because the holders OF the
corn do not have to sell and they de-

upward tendency to the market No
decline in corn can be expected. say
observers, as long as hogs continue
anywhere near the present price level.
Farmers are becoming buyers Of corn
in order to feed hogs.
