TRUCKING NOTES.

Two car loads Of Irish Potatoes
were graded and shipped out this
week by the Leakesviile Truckers
Association. They secured an ad-
vance price over the market from q
Mobile Commission house, account
the quality. A mixed car of Irish
Potatoes and Cabbage will go out
tomorrow and shipping continue
till the County is cleaned up of pota-
toes. Also at the meeting OF the
truckers last Saturday plans were
hit upon for cooperative planting of
crops this fall so a sufficient number
will have the same crop coming in
at the same time to strike right on
the markets and by such cooperation
secure carload shipments.

$500 Federal Relief Allowed To Family
OF Late W. [. Dunnam.


A federal appropriation of $500
has been secured for relief Of the
late w. l.. Dunnam, marshal of the
Town of Richton, slain in the famous
Piney Woods Greek Skinny Still
raid on Apr. l, 1921, Mr.. Dunnam
being possesman accompanying Ja-
cob f. Green federal prohibition Of
ficer. also killed IN such raid Mr..
Green was directly 10 the federal
service so a pension could be allow
ed his family in the regular way but
it took special legislation to get
through help for Dunnam' s family.
The amount allowed is but a mere
pittance when considering the size
of Mr.. Dunnam's family and the loss
OF his life in government service but
possibly more aid can be secured
later, and this will help some for the
present.
