The Supreme Court of tlie United States .1. livernl the wets another ainiiehing blow yester day liea it declared the I'rohibition Knforcement Act constitutional and soused the glimmering; hope for 2.70 tier ceut beer. Step by step, tho wets have becu, pushed down. All sorts of Imrriera have been offered to tay the progress of prohibition.

Ten years ago when the ceusus was taken, the a usened valuation of oil the forms in Wilson county was a lihle over tkrco"mitlioii dollars. The aver age value of farm lands then was about thirty fivd dollars. What the value of the farms today can be told only when the census is completed or tha revaluations made known. Certainty it will be mueh higher. Good farm land in Wilson today scares nobody at two or three hundred an acre, but, if we figure on one hundred, the land on the farm of Wilson.woiild.be worth ten mil lions, Moviug the price up to a ten million dol lar valuation or doubling that on tho basis of two lauulred dollars in acre and stilt the money brought by the tobacco fold in Wilson ta 119 would pay for all the farms in the eonnty.
