 The emergency tariff bill had no effect on agrIcultural conditions.

They realized that they had heen stung. They re- moved the pressure. When time came to vote on extending the life Of the bil, no, farmer from the south asked his representative to desert his party.
 The emergency tariff bill was pre- pared to serve until the permanent tariff bill could be enacted It was put over with great flourish. lte- turn of prosperity immediately was promised. The bill went into effect without effect on conditions. It was destined to expire the middle of No-, vember. Because the republicans had not been able to enact a permanent tariff bill, it became necessary Tor them to rally to the support of their fast expiring baby. They introduced a bill extending the life of the emer- gency bill until such time as the per manent bill could be put across. This bill was successful in the House.

FARMERS PLANNING
 HOME ORCHARDS ON
 AN UNUSUAL SCALE

Auburn, october 2t.-tSpeciai) As the harvest season approaches a conclusion and the winter season draws near. reports from county agents in all sections of Alabama indicate that the farmers are pre- pairing to start record number ol home orchards this year.
 Since early in the summer the farmers have been calling on the county agents concerning the kinds of fruits, varieties and also aero ege for home orchards, and even though the first of the season for setting the trees Is just now her". results to date show that the farm- CTS are in earnest about raising fruit to meet their own needs. For me week ending Saturday, october l5, County Agent S M Day of Coosa county, reported the placing of a CO., operative order for 5000 fruit trees; while H c. Heath. Butler county agent, has been busy placing orchard demonstrations; E. +. Jamieson. county agent of Hale county. placed an order for 753 trees and H. II. Williamson. Escambia county agehs, reports that several farmers have already pooled their orders for fruit trees, and that others are being added to the list.
 To emphasize the importance of fruit and to teach the boys and girls how to raise it, John Blake, Dallas county agent, made plans for eight home orchard demonstrations m as many schools in the county, where part of the trees at each school will be properly pruned. sprayed and cultivated, and others left to grow without attention, which mas been the case with numerous orchards in Alabama.

TOURIST TRAVEL IN SEPTEMBER

New York. October 21.-(Special) During the past month number of railroads endeavored, by newspaper advertising and intensive solicita- ton, to prolong the summer tourist season to include September. The Grand Trunk railway was especially painstaking to educate tourists to appreciate the magnificent fall sea son In the Canadian Highlands Strangely enough. it has proved to be uphill work, but those fortunate ones who have lately returned from Muskoka lakes, Lake of Bays and Algonquin park are enthusiastic over tfeir autumnal outing. Generally speaking, the roads consider that their efforts have been well worth while, and that next year there will be a considerable increase In the Sep tember tourist earnings.

Outcome in Tobac-
CO is Marvellous

The loose market has been active
again this week on the street mar
kets. Practically all of the offerings
were of the low and common grades
of leaf ranging from 5 to Is cents,
very little of it going above IL
cents. The French Reggie is the prin-
cipal buying interest. At the same
time, there are other buyers COM
peting and prices are about the same
as they have been for the past two
weeks. The greater part of the to-
bacco moving is bought at the barn
doors on contract and the old stock
is fast disappearing.
There has been very little activi-
ty in the hogshead market, only few
sales having been reported. Prices
are about the same as they have
been for the past several weeks on
both new and old.
The weather has been damp, with
rather too much rain in some locali-
ties for the growing crop and some
slight damage has occurred in low
land, but not enough of this to make
it serious. The crop is growing fine
Iy and the outcome is marvellous.
The indications are that we will
have a good crop in tobacco that
planted early and has been well cul-
tivated. We have been over the dis
trict and seen quite good deal of
the growing crop and will say that
our estimate is about the same as
last week. Half of the crop proml-
SEES to be extra good and some of the
late planting may be equally as good
if weather conditions are favorable,
but there is quite good deal Of the
late planting that is not growing of
good and the indications are it will
be small and common. A great deal
of the late planting is growing
spIendidly and will make good tobac-
co if the weather is favorable until
the 18th of October.

has the peculiar hobby Of collecting
locks Of women's hair, especially bru-
nettes, according to his story to the
police This whim caused him to be
placed In prison on a charge Of va
grancy. He was held under bond Of
$1,000 after he had been followed for
more than mile by Miss Elizabeth
Williams and Miss Inice Ellis, nurses
at the Methodist hospital
According to Miss Williams, Jones
has been seen frequently around the
nurses home within the last few
weeks. She said he had asked many
Of the nurses for locks of their hair
and had caused much fright among
the young women, who had found
him at times prOwling through the
building.
Miss Williams and Miss Ellis were
walking at Illinois and Ohio streets
when they said Jones passed them and
Miss Williams recognized him. They
followed him to where Policemen
Reilly and Mullin were called. The
police say Jones admitted asking the
women for locks of hair.

of the blue ribbons at the Fulton
fair last week. In fact, Weakley
county was mighty near the whole
thing at the Fulton fair, especially
in the livestock department, where
the Shanklins, Brundiges, Jim Eth

very fine stuff that was admired by
all fair visitors.
Two of our districts were repre-
scented by district displays-Chest-
nut Glade and the First district, the
latter in charge of Mr.. and Mrs.
Gus Donoho, representing the dis
trict. In this display there were
1853 articles and it got first premi-
UNI. We did not get the number of
articles in the Chestnut Glade dis
play, but this, too, was an attraction
appreciated by all fair visitors. Both
these displays will be shown at the
Weakley county fair next month.

GARDENER DIGS UP MASTODON

within few years the skeleton Of q

city, two OF them In the last year by
one man, Anthony Fischera, an Italian
gardener living near Washington
Lake, four miles from Newburgh. He
had said nothing Of his first discovery
Of buried heap Of huge bones, but
when he recently found another on his
farm, he mentioned his dual find to a
local patron, Hugo HIrscheim, who ia

Hirscheim told Fschera of the remark

The skeleton was about three feet
under the surface, the body having ap-
parently lain on its side, so that one
Of its feet bones was first brought to
light. Although the entire skeleton
has not been secured and some of the
parts recovered are very porous and
soft, as whole they are considered
to be we'll preserved. The lower Jaw
bones, tusks, leg bones, pelvic bones,
shoulder blades and portions Of the
vertebrate are apparently In the early

ADVANTAGES OF A JUNIOR
COLLEGE

The Junior College has right to
exist, because it does a work that
the college has never done. This
work consists in giving to the stu
dents many advantages, among
which we mention the following:
Economy, a democratic atmosphere,
stage opportunities, and instruction
by ALL the faculty. Let US exam
inc these four advantages in the or
der mentioned. 1t is well known to
everybody that the actual, necessary
expenses are less in a small school
in small town than they are in a
large college in great city. Parents
are often deceived into thinking
that their children are taking high
er courses when they go to a great
city, but the fact is that HallMoody
and other Junior colleges are doing
the first two years of the work done
in the large colleges or universities.
The fees are lower, and there are
fewer worthless. side attractions
calling for money.
The democratic atmosphere in the
Junior College is most wholesome
for the production of real Ameri-
cans. Glass and caste are entirely
cast out, and there is, therefore, no
social distinction. There are no
green caps for the Freshmen, no dis
tinguished costumes for the Sophie
mores. There are no so-called Sen
Tors to haze or initiate the Fresh
men. No one is embarrassed by be-
: ing considered green, or placed in
the awkward squad. Anarchy and
Bolshevism do not thrive in the Jun
Tor college atmosphere.
There is also an advantage in
stage practice. It is we'll known
that our great speakers and orators
have come from the small ollegeS,
and not from the great universities.
There is reason for this. In the
larger college only a few are per-
mitted to appear on the stage, and
consequently only few develop into
public speakers. Whoever heard of
Freshman orator on a college plat
form?
The last reason to be mentioned
is that the students are in touch with
the heads of departments in the
class room, and not under student
teachers or assistants. This person.
al touch is entirely lacking in the
first years of the large college.
The Freshman or Sophomore is US
ually not so much as acquainted with
the heads of the departments in
which the work is done.
From these observations it is evil
dent that the path of opportunity
lies through the Junior College.
Surely this formative period is the
most important in the lives of young
people, and hence the necessity for
special attention. Add to this evi-
dence the fact that most of the men
and women in "Who's Who" re-
ceived training in small christian
colleges. George Peabody believed |
in small colleges and gave his means
to advance them. Yet there are
those who doubt.-Extract from the
Hall-Moody School Journal for

Bees he Up rown,s eusiness.

Bozeman, MOnt.-Business was par
alyzed, scores of persons ran to cover
and traffic ceased for more than an
hour for distance Of three blocks
in the business district here when
thousands of bees that apparently had
lost their queen swoOped down on that
section and filled the air. Finally a
city street foreman, with a shovel and
hammer, succeeded in attracting the
bees into the city park, a short dis
lance away, by a constant changing.

Stray Baggage Always
Has Most VaIuabIeS.

New York. - EVERY trunk
that's lost contains diamonds,

baggage man at the Grand Cen
tral terminal. "That is, they're
supposed to. Anxious passen-
gers whose trunks have been
sIdetracked tell US of all the
wonderful things they contain.
But the funny thing Is that
when the trunks are finally
located it's usually found that
dresses. shirts and things Of
that nature were about all that
were in them after all. Many
Of those who reclaim their stray
trunks tell us so themselves.
Examination proves it In other
cases. 1t Just goes to show that
the loser always exaggerates his
losses"

What Damage to Expect

1
"Boll weevils are in my cotton in
great numbers. Would you advise me
to pIow up the cotton and plant some
other crop?" - =, j.
This is the question being asked by
hundred of South Carolina farmers
in the infested counties: of the state,
says Prof. A. F. Conradi, chief of, the
entomology division, who says that
advice from any source concerning
this matter is not dependable, for
there is no man who can tell in ad
vance whether or not it would be
wise to plow up cotton and plant other
crops on account of boil weevil infes-
tation. ...
The cotton boil weevil is an insect
whose activities depend on weather
conditions. If the weather in June
and July is comparatively warm and
dry, we may expect to make cotton
crop so far as the weevil is concern
ed. In other words, abundance of
weevils at this season of the year is
no indication of the loss that may
be expected, for the reason that so
far the weevil has had every advan-
tage on the cotton and disadvan-
tage. On the other hand, if June
and July are comparatively wet, one
may expect severe loss from the boil
weevl. 1t must be remembered that
the average South Carolina. weather
conference and district officers
half of the state, are very favorable
to Weevil development. ..
