Terrible Work of
an Incendiary.
On Saturday morning at 3 o'clock
the large barn and stables of Mr. H.
Z. Adams, a leading farmer of the
Hollow creek section, together with
five valuable mules, one fine mare,
two cows and a big lot of cotton seed
meal and hulls, were destroyed by
fire. When first discovered the flames
had gained such headway that it was
impossible to save anything. Mr. Adams
managed to reach the stable in
which his fine mare was inclosed, but
all efforts to get the animal out proved
futile.
The news spread rapidly and it was
not long before the people began to
gather in large numbers, but the news
did not reach Lexington until three
hours after the fire, Mr. Adams coming
down in his automobile. Sheriff
Corley was notified and the county
bloodhounds were sent for. Through
the kindness of Clerk of Court Frank
W. Shealy one of the new Schacht
automobiles was brought into use.
With Mr. Shealy at the wheel, Sheriff
Corley and Capt. Mack left Lexington
with the bloodhound, and a record
run was made, the distance of 17
miles having been made in exactly 30
minutes, four miles_of the road being
unusually rough.
Upon arriving on the scene seven

took up the trail at the end of the
building and carried it successfully
for a distance of about three-quarters
of a mile to an old barn beside the
road, where it is supposed the incendiary
got on a horse and rode away.
Mr. Adams's loss is estimated to be
between four and five thousand dollars
with no insuranoo.

SAM ROOFS FINE CORN.
Mayor Sam P. Roof ha9 the finest
field of upland corn on his farm near
town that has ever been seen in this
part of the county. There are seyen
acres in the piece. The rows are 4y2
feet wide and the corn is planted
about 12 to 18 inches apart in the drill.
It is as black as river bottom corn
and eyery ear is well developed. This
corn will make from 50 to 75 bushels
to the acre, conservatively estimated.
Ten years ago but few men believed
that such yields could be made on
sand land. In fact, 50 bushels of corn
to the acre was considered marvelous.
Every farmer who cultivates sanay
land should take a l:>ok at Mayor
Roof's corn and get his formula.
Bitten by Rattlesnake.
While cleaning out a spring at
Bethel church, near Edmund, on Saturday,
where Prof. William P. Steele
was conducting a singing school, Mr.
J. A. Lucas was severely bitten on the
Wnoo Virr Q m/-motor rattlesnake. which
U J O UAVU0WJ
sprang upon him from a bu9h nearby
without warning.
Dr. Wingard was immediately summoned
and an operation was at once
performed, and Mr. Lucas is doing as
well as could be expected.
The snake was killed by Mr. J. A.
Lewis, who happened to be nearby,
and measured 5 feet and carried nine
rattles and a button.
Tfccr annual Farmers' Union picnic
will be held August 19th at the old
picnic grounds near Piney Woods
church. Prominent men will speak.
The public are cordially invited.
