ANDALUSIA, Ala, Feb. 1S.-(Spe- al.)-Reports from local officials of Swift & Co. this week based upon the returns from hog census" that is being carried on in order to ascer- tain the approximate number of hogs throughout the spring, disclose the fact that very large percentage of the marketable hogs have already been marketed in this locality.
 Buyers for the local plant arc busy in the various districts in this sec- ton, attending hog sales and buying from all available sources and the supply will be comparatively heavy for the next few weeks at any rate.
 MORE COTTON PLANTED
 Considerably more cotton acreage is anticipated for this county this year than has ever been planted be- fore, according to advices from J. P. Wilson, county demonstration agent, and others who are in close touch with the agricultural activities in Covington county.
 Farmers are using more fertilizer this year than they have used in the past seven or eight years. it is es- tinated, judging from the fertilizer sales in all the business centers in the county, and in great many cases the farmers are mixing their fertilizers at home, thus obtaining the very best kind for their partic- ular soils.

 Warrants
ANNISTON BUREAU THE AGE-HERALD

Filing of a suit to recover for Cle- burne county approximately s17,000, which state examiners of public ac- counts have checked up against D. s. Baber, republican probate judge in that county, in the circuit court last week, was made at the instigation of Attorney General Harwell G. Davis. the suit having been filed in the circuit court of Cleburne county by Solicitor James B. Sanford.
 During the Kilby administration state examiners reported that the Cle- burne judge had paid out large sums of money on illegal warrants issued by the commissioners court of Gle burne county, but the probate judge declined to make settlement or straighten up the affairs in his coun- ty, according to the reports of the state examiners.
 In their reports to the governor the state examiners said that the pro- bate judge, county clerk and mem bers of the commissioners court were careless, indifferent and negligent. The suit will be heard before Judge A. P. Agee of this city at the spring term of the court in Cleburne county.
