All contestants for prizes hereto- fore designated w ill observe the fol lowing and act accordingly: It is possible for one man to ob tain all lirst or second prizes offered on corn, but to do so he must grow tight acres. To make plain: The one acre will not be allowed to make part of the live acres, neither will thr 'two acre plat be allowed to betaken 1 . .. out of the five-acre plat, The committee decides to limit the amount of commercial fertilizer to ten dollars per aire; no limit on stable or barnyard manure. A cash prize will be given to the one growing corn the cheajiest, pro vided over twenty-five bushels are grown per acre. You will therefore keep an account of all expenses, count your lalior at one dollar per day, and the same for your horse or mule. Value your stable manure at two dollars per ton and the fertilizer at the price paid for it. If cotton seed are used they should be valued at fifteen dollars per ton All contestants are required to no tify the committee by the 1st of July or before, what prize or prizes they are competing for, so that ample time may be given the committee to appoint other committee to measure the land, and corn, peas, potatoes, etc It ia the hope of the committee that fanners all over tbe county will enter the contest and ahow their in terest in the effort that are bring made for better farming. The com- mittee hope to be able to offer other prize on the cowpea, which will be announced later. T. J. W. Broom, Chm. COTTON. . , . , k, 'cumrntuik'bifjrmaf thrCitvof JitfS- Uc .1 price Unlit.

The mob led the four men to a barn a few hundred feet away aud stood them in a straight line. "Tell us what you devils know about Babbitt's murder," shouted the mob leader.
