CARING FOR TOMATOES

The chief advantages Of prun-
ing and stalking tomatoes are:
l. A larger number of plants
can be set on the given area.
2. The tomatoes will ripen
little earlier when plants are
pruned and staked.
3. The fruit is kept of the
ground, IL clean, easy to gather,
and less likely to decay.
4. The quality OF the fruit Ia
usually better on plants that are
pruned and stnked.

Lexington Postomce
Broken Into

The people of Lexington were shocked and
surprised Tuesday morning to learn that
during the night professional cracksmen
or yeggmen had entered the local post
Office. 1t appears that they had broken
open door with the aid of chisel or
like instrument. Paul Stein, having
rooms at the Arlington Hotel was awak
ened at Is minutes to o'clock Tuesday
morning by loud explosion or detona-
ton. Hastily putting on clothes he
rushed out on the street and walked
around the square, peeping into the banks
and stores Seeing nothing untoward
and hearing no furthre noise he went
to bed again Just twenty minutes after
the first report there came another con-
cussion. This time he remained in bed
but intenty listened, Hearing nothing
further, he dismissed the matter from
his mind, thinking that perhaps some
mischievously or iokosely inclined person
was shooting off giant irecrackers or
the like, and went to sleep. About six
o'clock Frank Morgan, colored, janitor
at the school house in passing discovered
a front window at the postoffice shattered
and door of safe on the sidewalk,
hurried to Pope's stable and informed
Dave Red, colored, Of his discovery. The
latter Immediately called up the telephone
exchange and requested that the officers
be notified. The young ladies at the ex-
change promptly called up the officers and
postofiice personnel. On arriving at the
scene, it was found that the big safe
door had been blown with terrific force
from its hinges and through the window
and out on the street The inner door
of the safe was still in position, but bent
inward Acting Postmaster ]. Kennard
Young promptly telegraphed for post
office inspector and left the safe unopened
until the next day in the hope that the
inspector might arrive and make thor
ough inspection. However, on Wednes-
day he opened the safe and was gratifed
to find all the contents, money and reve-
nue. and savings stamps intact and un-
touched About $3.50 in cash from Mon
days money order business was in the
safe, besides large quantities of revenue
and savings stamps The yeggs must
have gotten a scare and made q quick
get away, In leaving the city they stole
Section Foreman W. P. Yoemans hand
car, which they rode to Durant, leaving
the car at Humphries Stock Farm, on the
outskirts Of the city. Mr.. Yoeman went

Consecrated Preacher

The splendid citizenship Of the Emory
neighborhood did a very graceful thing
last Christmas. They "chipped in" and
purchased fine automobile and presented
it to the pastor of the Baptist church at
that place, Rev. A. H. Miller. There is
no more consecrated or Jealous worker
in the vineyard. of the Lord anywhere
than Rev. Miller, and his worth is be-
ing realized by all who ever come in con-
tact with him, irrespective of denomi-
national affiliations. The congregation
at Mt Pleasant presented him with an
elegant overcoat and other congregations
gave him varying sums of money in
token of their high appreciation Of his
faithful and effective work. Rev. Miller
serves a goodly number of congregations,
all of whom are highly pleased to have
him as their pastor and evidence their
appreciation in various ways.

Dear Sirs:--We should have a law
passed to impose heavy fine on man
ayers for failing to return ballot boxes
after elections. We had an election on
Saturday, January 3rd, for election of
chancery judge The last box was re-
turned on January 9th; votes could not
be counted until next day-one week after
election Our circuit clerk and myself
had to phone and work all the time to get
them sent in at all. The boxes could
have been sent in on Monday after the
eection-seven to come by express.
1t is hardship, after appointing man
ayers each time, to be put to the trouble
of hunting up some one to carry out and
return the boxes.
