NASHVILLE GLOBE VOL. VI. JNO. B. RANSOM DISMISSED JNO. B. RANSOM DISMISSED CHARGE OF FAST DRIVING NOT SUSTAINED CASE ATTRACTED A DEAL OF ATTENTION—MR. MCCUTCHEON WELL THOUGHT OF BY THE PEOPLE—MR. RANSOM PROMINENT FIGURE IN NASHVILLE—CASE CAN BE CARRIED TO GRAND JURY. The case of John B. Ransom, Jr., a wealthy white man, who was driving the automobile which ran over S. B. McCutcheon at Sixteenth avenue and Broadway, on the evening of November 15, resulting in McCutcheon's death, was called in the City Court Tuesday morning. Mr. Ransom was originally charged with fast driving of an automobile. Upon motion of Mr. Gerald, Assistant City Attorney, the charge was amended and finally read: "Fast driving of an automobile and running after dark without lights." Ransom pleaded not guilty. Witnesses were heard and testimony as to whether Mr. Ransom was driving at a high speed at the time of accident, and as to whether the evening was sufficiently dark to require the lighting of automobile lamps, differed at all angles. Some claimed positively that the evening was dark, others did not know whether it was dark or merely smoky. One witness testified that the car was going at a speed of between twenty-five and thirty miles an hour; another said it was going at about ten or twelve miles an hour. Mr. Haley, an eye-witness to the happening, testified that Mr. Ransom did not stop the car immediately after the accident, but pulled away to the right, and after that he did not see him. Mr. Cole, who was also an eye-witness, deposed that Mr. McCutcheon darted from behind a wagon directly under Mr. Ransom's car, and that in his opinion the accident was inevitable, and that the machine was stopped so promptly after McCutcheon had been struck, that the rear of the wheels was still upon the injured man. Mr. Cole also testified that the car was going at something like ten miles an hour. Judge Killen said from the evidence given he could see nothing in the case to justify the charge of fast driving, and as no one seemed to know as to whether it was light or dark, he could not determine whether the automobile required lighted lamps or not. The case was dismissed. A large crowd gathered in the city court room to hear the outcome of the case, as both men were well thought of. Mr. Ransom, because of his wealth and social standing, and Mr. McCutcheon because of his uprightness as a citizen and his faithfulness to duty. The case can be carried to the Grand Jury and an indictment had if sufficient evidence can be presented. Mr. S. B. McCutcheon was well-known in this city, and was highly respected. He had worked for M. A. S. Schardt, a successful druggist, for fifteen years. He was married and leaves a wife and two children. They had lived together happily in their cosy little home on Archer avenue since their marriage. Mrs. McCutcheon is heart-broken, and with her two babies presents a pititable scene. Her husband and the father of the two little ones left them in the morning well and cheerful and about the time the babies were accustomed to ask mamma if papa will soon be home, the startling news came that S. B. McCutcheon had been run over by an automobile and is at the point of death in the hospital. The mother is frantic, but the babies are lost in innocent wonderment. Why does mamma weep? And they are finally told the sad story. They ask the simple child question that always puzzles the wisest men. The funeral of Mr. McCutcheon was held at Kayne Avenue Baptist Church Sunday, conducted by Revs. E. M. Lawrence, W. H. Young and I. S. Davis. Over fifteen hundred were present and a large number of them were white people. Prof. I. B. McCutcheon, brother of S. B. McCutcheon, came from Atoka, Okla., to be present at his brother's funeral. He is principal NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1911 of the Dunbar High School, but will remain in Nashville until everything is settled. CIVIL SERVICE EXAMINATIONS.

Searcy and Forrest Green, white men, were called in the City Court this morning to answer the charge of assaulting Morris Lyons on the night of November 11, with alleged intent to commit murder. Lyons has been in the City Hospital with an ugly cut over his right eye and onother on his back. The assault occurred, according to evidence, upon Lyons' laughing at E. J Searcy while the latter was attacked with a spell of coughing. Witnesses convinced Judge Killen, however, that Lyons was not in fault and the three white men were fined $10 each. Lyons was dismissed. See the Nashville Globe's Foot ball Extra next Thursday. Full reports of the Fisk-Meharry game by quartors.

One of the most successful meetings ever held in the interest of the trustees' aid of Bethel A. M. E. Church, took place when Mrs. Lizzie Thomas, assistant chairman of the Board, held a meeting Tuesday evening, November 14th, at her residence, 413 Eleventh avenue, South. Beside the representative number of her own committee present there were others who are interested in the advancement of the Board. Addresses were made by the pastor, Rev. Wm. Porter, and several other visitors. Many impromptu addresses were made and a general feeling of Christianity and love prevailed. A delicious two-course menu was served at the close of the meeting. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH. Rev. W. S. Ellington will deliver the last of the series of special sermons, Sunday morning, November 26. His subject will be, "The Prodigal Son." The membership is delighted over the results of the rally last Sunday; $480 were raised and the rally continued. The twenty clubs into which the church was divided all made excellent reports. The club led by Councilman S. P. Harris and Mrs. H. S. Wright led, raising $52.20.

"Dear friends," quoth Carrick Forrest Booth, Thanksgiving Past was ne'er so pleasant, So rich in peace and cheer, forsooth, As this, our glad Thanksgiving present." From Arthur Gulterman's "A Thanksgiving Raid," in Woman's Companion. Globe Scores Another Victory Every obstacle in the way of the great football game between Fisk and Meharry was removed Thursday morning when a conference of the representatives of the two institutions and the parties who had leased the park for another entertainment met with the editor of the Globe and talked over the matter. It only required about fifteen minutes for the whole affair to be adjusted when the proper parties got together. The game will be played at Athletic Park as in former years. A rumor gained circulation that WORK BEGUN ON HUBBARD HOSPITAL ADDITION Contract for the stone work of the foundation and first story of the south wing and middle section of the Geo. W. Hubbard Hospital has been awarded to Thos. H. Ward, and the work is now rapidly progressing. At a recent meeting of the General Committee of the Freedmen's Aid Society of the M. E. Church, it was decided that $5000.00 should be raised by the Society for completing the Hubbard Hospital. Dean Hubbard has pledged himself to raise $5000.00, and of this sum he expects that $2000.00 will, within a few months be given by the Alumni of Mcharry, who have been asked to contribute. When this is done, and the donation from the Society obtained, the $10,000.00 promised by Mr. Andrew Carnegie will be available for completing the building. During the past week Meharry was visited by Dr. S. L. Carson, Assistant Surgeon-in-chief of Freedmen's Hospital, Washington, D. C. During his stay which extended from November 14th to 17th, he spent most of his time in operating at the Hubbard Hospital and successfully performed a large number of operations, including a "laparotomy," "removal of a lipoma," and several other operations of a varied character. The doctor employed the infiltration method for producing local anesthesia in most of the operations. This method, together with the various steps and details of the operations, he very ably demonstrated to the members of the Junior and Senior medical classes, who witnessed the several operations. While the doctor awaited the signal for his departure by train from the Union Station on Friday evening, 17th inst., a deputation of students, consisting of Messrs. W. Blackwell and J. T. Phillips of the junior medical class, Mr. G. W. Furlow, president of the senior medical class, and a few other young men, approached hind bearing a splendid silver-head umbrella bought with subscriptions from the two classes, for presentation to the doctor as a token of their hearty appreciation of the splendid instructions received at his hands. Mr. Furlow made the presentation, to which the doctor in very appreciable remarks replied, expressing pleasure at the very hearty welcome accorded him by the Faculty of Meharry, and the (Continued on Page 4) Mr. Frank Battle, and associates had leased the park for speculative purposes, but the rumor proved to be groundless. Mr. Battle was very busy installing his mammoth new fountain in the Palms, but he dropped everything at once and received the gentlemen most cordially. In a few minutes the whole matter was adjusted in a manner entirely satisfactory to all parties concerned. Harmony prevails on every hand now, and the prospects for a record breaking crowd at Athletic Park Thanksgiving Day are most promising. TRIPLET MASS-MEETING. Under Auspices Committee of Fifty Colored Citizens. Men and Religion Forward Movement. There will be three mass-meetings held Sunday afternoon at three o'clock for men, women and boys, respectively. These meetings are being held under the auspices of the Committee of Fifty Colored Citizens, ministers and laymen, in the interest of the Men and Religion Forward Movement that is now sweeping the country. This committee, representing some of the strongest ministers and laymen of the city, has held several very successful preliminary meetings arranging for the special Eight-Day Campaign, which will be had on December 11-17. During the campaign some of the most experienced religious and church workers of the continent will be here and the Committee of One Hundred, white citizens, has arranged to divide the time of their men with the Committee of Fifty, colored. In addition to the white men, our Committee on Evangelism, of which Rev. Dr. Ellington is Chairman, is trying to bring one of the strongest colored preachers of the south here to do special evangelistic work during the campaign. The meetings for Sunday afternoon will be held as follows: For men, Spruce Street Baptist Church, the speakers, Rev. Drs. R. T. Weatherby and W. S. Ellington; for boys, First Baptist Church, speakers, Rev. Preston Taylor and Dr. S. L. Howard; for women, St. John A. M. E. Church, and will be addressed by Revs. S. Jackson and I. H. Jones. If the Men and Religion Movement did no more than inspired these meetings as announced above it certainly would have been worth while. One of the greatest problems of the day is the "boy problem" and it is hoped that every parent will try to have his or her boy attend this meeting for boys. Boys from twelve to sixteen are invited. From sixteen up are invited to the men's meeting at Spruce Street Baptist Church, while the mothers and all women are urged to attend the women's meeting at St. John. Indeed the whole family can come to the center of the city and separate and attend each his respective meeting. It is hoped that great good will result from this effort. Good music is to be provided for each meeting. Let every body attend., WILL BE PLAYED ON THANKSGIVING. Prudential Committee Reconsiders. GREAT REJOICING IN THE CAMPS —TEAMS DOWN TO HARD WORK—COACH RANSOM ARRIVES—GOOD GAME ANTICIPATED — DR. WELKER HAS CRACK TEAM AT FISK—RELATIVE STRENGTH OF THE TWO ELEVENS. The people of Nashville, and in fact throughout the country who are lovers of the gridiron sport, will receive with elation the news that the annual foot ball game between Fisk and Meharry will be played this year as usual on Thanksgiving Day. The matter was reconsidered by the prudential committee of Fisk University after numerous appeals from the people, and at a meeting held last week it was agreed that a conference be held between Fisk and Meharry officials to see if a satisfactory agreement could be reached. The final result was the game will be played on the annual November holiday. There is great rejoicing in every nook and corner of Nashville, and the mails have been kept hot for the last week by parties here informing their friends afar of the change, and as heretofore, old Nashville will be ablaze on the 30th with the brilliant colors of gold and blue, and crimson and black floating to the breezes at every turn. The boys at the institutions are rounding up their yelling crews and whipping every fellow in line who can make a "whack" or a "quack" or a "hum." The relative strength of the two teams is about par. Coach Ransom arrived at Meharry last week, and has had the boys on the jump ever since. Everybody knows what Ransom does to a team. First of all, he drills his men into manliness, and then sets about to teach them the arts of foot ball. Dr. Welton, the new coach at Fisk, is also a Western man, as is Coach Ransom, and this game between Fisk and Meharry ought to be a hummer, for both men will use about the same style of play. Dr. Welton is a footballist of renown, and he has developed at Fisk University this year a team that can hold its own against any in the South. The heavy Atlanta Baptist College team was only able to make one touchdown against Fisk on their home grounds, and in face of the fact that Fisk had not played a single hard game this season while Atlanta Baptist College has struck up against such teams as Talladega, Morris Brown and others. Meharry beat Talladega 13 to 0, and Fisk beat the same team 16 to 0 in the first two quarters. True Talladega had played a hard game Saturday before attacking Fisk on Tuesday, but on the other hand, Fisk had played just as hard a game on Saturday and had traveled from Atlanta home. So it is a toss up as to which had the advantage in that respect. The showing made by the two teams has put the wise ones to guessing, and the bid is about even as to the outcome on Thanksgiving Day. A large crowd, probably the largest in the history of the game, will witness this contest as everybody is on nettles to see the teams play this year. DIFFICULTIES WE ENCOUNTER. At the next meeting of the Sunday-School Union, which is to be held at the Summer Street Baptist Church at 2:30 p. m. on the second Sunday in December, the subject under discussion will be "Some of the Difficulties We Encounter in Our Work in the Sunday-School." Special speakers will be assigned by the program committee to open this discussion. The Sunday-School Union has grown rapidly and the interest in these discussions is continuing to increase. The other features of the program will be announced later on, said Chairman Lewis and Mrs. Brown, in giving out the subject for publication.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1911. Negro Blamed Too. The Nashville Banner is laboring arduously to find a panacea for the disaffection in the Democratic party in Tennessee. Every kind of a suggestion is being made in the hope it seems to stumble upon one that will strike a popular chord, the most absurd blunder yet made was that in the issue of the 22nd, under the caption "Democracy's Needs." In lently editorial the following is found: "If the Democrat party in Tennessee is going to stand for and endorse the things Hilary Howse represents and endorses and expects to draw its support from the sources largely represented in the saloon, gambling and purchased Negro vote he received, then the large and better element of Tennessee citizenship is not Democratic and it is to be sincerely hoped never will be." It is known to even the casual observer that the Banner does not hope to see harmony in any party; but to the contrary is ever trying to create discord. The reference made to the Negro in the lines quoted is for no other purpose but to make enemies for him among the democrats of the state. The Banner has been as restless as a dog with the mange since the time the Negroes throughout the state broke loose from their time worn moorings and drifted out in the sea of political independence, for to this day the doleful cry of the Republican party leaders has been to non affect. The Negroes have nothing to do with the row in the Democratic party. How onearth can they? It has always been specifically stated that a democrats are only those who can participate in a primary, and no one can participate in a democratic primary except white men. The overwhelming majority of the Negroes in this state are not white, and those who are do not attempt to pass as such, so how on earth can they be democrats? And since they are not democrats how can they have anything to do with the harmony the Banner is crying about? No, the truth of the matter is, the Banner is laboring to keep the democrats apart and to prejudice the unthinking votes against the Negro and the fusionist cause. Such tactics are far from being manly and courageous and will fall short of the purpose for which they are intended. Everybody is pulling for the big game Thanksgiving Day. Will you be there? Teddy Roosevelt has cut loose from his moorings. Mr. Taft will have to "go some" now. Uncle Sam seems determined to join the warring party. The demonstrations on the Mexican border are splendid evidences of the drift of things. GLOBE IN UPPER PENINSULA. Some time last year there was visiting Nashville and Tennessee a Mr. --- NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1911. Albert Ray, who is a sleeping car conductor on the Canadian Pacific. While here he gave in a subscription for the Nashville Globe and then left on his extended vocation, which carried him from Michigan to Florida, up through the Carolinas, Virginia, into New York and across to his home at Sailte "While enjoying the good news of the Globe, your newsy paper, the lapse of time is so fleeting by the regularity of the paper, laden with so much news, that I have allowed myself to become delinquent. Yes, I am still in the land of the living enjoying splendid health. You will please find enclosed a money order for $1.50 for the renewal of my subscription, but few Tennesseeans in these parts, but the opportunity for those who care to make good is still the same which expired last month. There are notwithstanding severe snow storms, such as we are having today, occasionally visit us through the winter. The inspiration that came upon me while in my native state after an absence of thirty-five years and the impression made were both great and lasting. I have been constantly informed as to what has been going on through the columns of the Nashville Globe. Regards to Dr. R. H. Boyd, Mr. D. A. Hart and Mr. L. Landers."

Washington Principal Booker T. Washington furnished to the Associated Press, for publication last week, the statement which follows bearing upon the figures issued by Mr. Dana Durand, Director of the United States Census Bureau. The report is published in the Associated Press was necessarily somewhat abbreviated. The following review of the Census figures by Principal Washington may be of interest. He said: The Director of the Census issued on November 9th a preliminary statement of the white and Negro population in the United States as shown by the Thirteenth Census. According to the returns there were in 1910, 91, 972,266 persons in the United States subdivided as to color as follows: white, 81,732,687 or 88.9 per cent.; Negro, 9,828,294 or 10.7 per cent.; all other persons, 411,285 or 0.4 per cent. The increase of the Negro population for the ten years 1900-1910 was less than for previous decades. From 1880 to 1890 the increase was 13.5 per cent.; from 1890 to 1900 the increase was 18 per cent.; and from 1900 to 1910 the increase was 11.3 per cent. We must not, however, infer that because there is a decreasing rate of increase of the Negro population that there is a danger of the Negroes dying out i n the United States; for should the per cent. of increase fall until it was only 2 per cent, there would still be for each decade a considerable increase in the number of Negroes. The census figures also show that exclusive of immigrants there is a decreasing rate of the increase of whites. This decrease, however, is apparently not as great as for the Negroes. The natural rate of increase of whites was from 1880 to 1890, 20 per cent.; 1890 to 1900, slightly more than 16 per cent.; 1900 to 1910, 15 per cent. During the past thirty years there has been a considerabe change in the proportion of whites and Negroes in the South. In 1880 the whites constituted 63.9 per cent. of the population and the Negroes 36 per cent; in 1900 the whites constituted 67.4 per cent. and the Negroes 32.3; in 1910 the whites constituted 69.9 per cent and the Negroes 29.8. 8,749,390, or 89 per cent. of the Negroes live in the South and 1,078,904 or 10.9 per cent. outside of the South. In 1900 10.3 per cent. of the total Negro population lived outside of the South. There are at present two States in the South—South Carolina and Mississippi—where the Negroes exceed the whites. In West Virginia, Arkansas and Oklahoma the Negroes had a higher rate of increase than the whites. In Delaware and Virginia there has been only a slight increase; namely, 1.6 per cent. in each case. In Maryland, Kentucky and Tennessee there has been since 1900 an actual decrease in the number of Negroes. The number of Negroes in the so-called Southern States are as follows: Delaware, 31,181 Maryland, 2,342,249; District of Columbia, 94,446; Virginia, 671,096; West Virginia, 64,173; North Carolina, 697,843; South Carolina, 835,843; Georgia, 1,176,987; Florida, 308,669; Kentucky, 261,656; Tennessee, 473,088; Alabama, 908,275; Mississippi, 1,009,487; Arkansas, 442,891; Louisiana, 713,874; Oklahoma, 137,612; Texas, 690,020. EFFECT OF COLD STORAGE ON FOOD In Chicago recently a banquet was given for which the menu was prepared from food which hat been in cold storage for many months. The object of the banquet was to prove that food, even though stored for a long time, is both healthful and palatable. It only proved that some food may be palatable and harmless after such storage. No one has ever denied that, when properly handled and surrounded by the necessary conditions, food can be kept in cold storage in a fairly acceptable condition for comparatively long periods of time. If this banquet committee could not have found some acceptable food among the millions of dollars worth of ancient materials in the various warehouses, the cold storage of food products as a business would have been terminated long ago on account of the financial failure. Cold storage is a good thing. It has been used in a crude way, in country cellars and spring houses for generations, says The Journal of the American. Medical Association. Its modern development has added immensely to the possibilities of our tables, but like many other good things, it is frightfully abused. In order to get good results, one must have good material to store, and must be able to prevent harmful changes during storage. The condemnation by governmental authorities of millions of pounds of cold storage food shows the defects of the actual system in at least one respect. It is only by the constant vigilance of health officials that greater and more dangerous abuses are prevented. The fact that the banqueters found the food palatable and survived is beside the point. If a banquet such as this had been made an adjunct to a campaign for preventing the abuse of cold-storage methods, for limiting them to their legitimate field and for perfecting the methods of handling food products, more would have been accomplished by the cold-storage people in overcoming the prejudice of the public and in popularizing cold-storage goods. WALDEN UNIVERSITY. WALDEN UNIVERSITY. The regular monthly service of Walden University was held at Meharry Auditorium on Sunday morning, 12th inst., at 11 o'clock. The students were in their places, and quite a number of the citizens of Nashville also attended. The sermon was preached by Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, author and Secretary of the Educational Board of the National Baptist Convention, who took as a text St. John 11:25, 26: "I am the resurrection and the life," etc. As an introduction to his subject, the preacher, by a lively illustration from nature, impressed his hearers with the fact of the utter impossibility of concealing their real inward or spiritual state, affirming that a thorough test which must necessarily come, will make that condition manifest. Then taking up the subject in the text, he said that Christ was called upon to prove the truth of his profession when called to restore Lazarus. He further remarked that the three characteristics of Christ which prominently manifested themselves on this occasion were the embodiment of self-control, of self-surrender and of love. In concluding his address he said: "The virtues of Christ are received by contact, and if you will take Him into your lives, the grave will not mean death to you, but will be a portal to eternal life beyond the grave." Meharry Y. M. C. A. was addressed at 3:40 p. m. Sunday afternoon by Dr. Quillian, president of the local Missionary Training School of the M. E. Church, South. The doctor spoke of the opportunities within the grasp of the well-prepared young man, and of the great responsibilities which he must bear and expressed the wish that through Divine power these opportunities might be seized, and these responsibilities borne for the general good of mankind After Dr. Quintillian had spoken, Dr. Hubbard spoke of the opportunities for missionary work in Africa, and prayed that some of the young men of the institution would pledge themselves for Christian work in the dark Continent. After these remarks had been made, Mr. Ellis, newspaper correspondent and known in journalistic circles as the "Religious Rambler," entered the room and was asked by Dr. Hubbard to speak. In response he said that he regarded the race problem as a matter of great urgency, and expressed the opinion that individual contribution would do more towards the solution of the same than anything else.

Dr. Booker T. Washington has set April 17, 18 and 19, 1912 as the dates on which a proposed international conference will be held. To this end the following letter has been sent out, giving considerable light on the subject: "For some years past I have had in mind to inyite here from different parts of the world—Europe, Africa, the West Indies and North and South America—persons who are actively interested or directly engaged as missionaries, or otherwise in the work that is going on in Africa and elsewhere for the education and upbuilding of the Negro peoples. "For this purpose it has been determined to hold at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, April 17, 18 and 19, 1912, an international conference on the Negro. Such a conference as this will offer the opportunity for those engaged in any kind of service in Africa or the countries above mentioned to become more intimately acquainted with the work and the problems of Africa and other countries. Such a meeting will be valuable and helpful, also in so far as it will give opportunity for a general interchange of ideas in organizing and systematizing the work of education of the native peoples of Africa and elsewhere and the preparation of teachers for that work. Wider knowledge of the work that each is doing should open means of co-operation that do not now exist. "The object of calling this conference at Tuskegee Institute is to afford an opportunity for studying the methods employed in helping the Negro people of the United States, with a view of deciding to what extent Tuskegee and Hampton methods may be applied to conditions in these Wall-paper, Pictures and Picture Frames Wall-paper, from 3 Cents roll up Wall-paper Hung, plain one edge at 8c. roll Pictures of all kinds for sale.

By special arrangements with manufacturers of silverware, baptismal garments, church furniture, instruments and church supplies we have succeeded in getting, for the benefit of all Sunday-schools, churches and individuals, who will place an order between December 1 and January 1, 1912, the following: We will be personally responsible for ten per cent of the cost of any article in the supply line ordered from us during the thirty-one days in the month of December, in which one half of the cost of the article is accompanied with the order. For instance, if a person should order a library bookcase costing $15.00 and should send $7.50 of that amount in a postoffice money order, we would add $1.50 to the order, leaving the party to send in the next remittance only $6.00. Our other proposition in the way of a donation is that we will personally donate one-fourth of the cost of any article in the church supply line to any church, Sunday-school or congregation that sends in cash orders. To make ourselves more thoroughly understood, if a person should order a one hundred dollar chapel organ and should send us a postoffice money order for $75.00, we would guarantee the shipment of the organ and see that they are receipted for the $100.00, we becoming personally responsible for the remaining $25.00. In arranging this, we do so with a view to making it possible for every one of the thousands of Sunday-schools and churches dealing with us each year to receive our Christmas present without exception to the size or grade of the Sunday-school. Then, too, in a measure it attempts to show the appreciation, as well as the gratitude, we have for those churches, schools and individuals that have so loyally supported every department of our work. The National Baptist Church Supply Company is directly responsible for our being able to make such a sweeping wholesale offer at this particular season. We are grateful to them for coming to our rescue at a time when it was so much needed. We feel that those churches, schools and congregations that are contemplating the purchase of church bells, communion sets, pulpit suites, organs, pianos, sewing machines, collection plates or such other supplies that they have been writing to us about from time to time will take advantage of this offer. It will positively begin on the morning of December 1 and close January 1, 1912, at 9 a. m. All letters mailed to us during these thirty-one days, accompanied with all cash or one-half cash for articles wanted, will be honored with this proposition. This is the most sweeping donation ever offered in the history of the denomination and we feel sure it will redound to the success of the well-laid plans of many congregations.

On Wednesday and Thursday, January 17 and 18, 1912, the twenty-first annual session of the Tuskegee Negro Conference will convene at Tuskgeee Institute. Wednesday, the first day, will be devoted to a mass-meeting of the Negro people. Thursday, the second day, the annual Workers' Conference will be held. In the call for this Conference the statement is made that its purpose is "less to teach than to insure." The first day will be taken up for the most part with informal reports and personal experiences of representative men among, the farmer NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1911. and laboring classes from all over the South. The purpose of these reports is to afford a broad view of actual conditions and of what the people themselves, either as individuals or through their churches and schools, are doing to improve them. The second day will be devoted to a conference of the teachers and others who are engaged in some definite form of work to improve the masses of the colored people. The purpose of the Workers' Conference is to bring the work of the school, the churches and other institutions into closer touch with the practical and every-day life of the people. The principal topic for dis cussion at the Workers' Conference will be: "How May We Encourage the Practice of Saving among Negroes?" This subject will be divided into five sub-topics, affording opportunity for a full, free and helpful discussion WALDEN UNIVERSITY. The regular monthly service of Walden University was held at Meharry Auditorium on Sunday, the 12th inst., at 11 o'clock. The students were in their places, and quite a number of the citizens of Nashville also attended. Rev. Sutton B.

Under this subject is included the selecting of a site, the variety and purchase of trees, the laying out of the orchard, pruning, cultivating, spraying and the harvesting of the crop. It will not be possible in this brief paper to discuss all of these, and especial attention will be given to orchard beginnings. The site should be high and the soil should be deep. There are a great many ridge lands where the crest of the ridge is from one to two hundred yards wide, and occasionally broadening into a considerable area; and here the soil is of great depth. These are the best orchard locations that can be found. High piaces are chosen because they are more free from late frosts in the spring than valley lands, but it is quite as important that the trees should have a great depth of soil from which to gather moisture, as that they should be protected from late frosts. Clay loam or limestone formation is very good soil for apples. Practically the best soil for apples is that made by the disintegration of granitic rocks. The famous Albemarle Pippin region of Virginia has soil of this character. The very deep bluff soils of West Tennessee are excellent for apples, and in this location the danger of frost can be largely overcome by the use of orchard heaters. In the choice of trees or planting, especial care should be taken to secure trees with healthy roots. There are three common diseases of apple roots: the Crown Call, which causes large burls or warty growths to form on the roots; the Hairy Root, recognized by a large number of fine roots growing out from one place, usually on the main root of young trees; and the third is the result of Woody Aphis, a red brown louse, which lives in colonies and covers itself with fine, white fibres. This louse causes many bulges on the root and the upward passage of water through it is clearly retarded. It is against the law to sell trees infested by any of these troubles. If any of them are found in nursery stuff, and seller attempts to collect, the matter should be immediately reported to the State Entomologist. Manifestly, there are difficulties enough in bringing an orchard to fruitage age, without purchasing any at the start. It will often happen that trees infested with Crown Call or Hairy Root will make luxurious top growths. These diseases do not affect the trees for several years, but they have proven a very great cause of injury. Sometimes the trees will be twelve or fifteen years old, and after leafing out in the spring its leaves will turn yellow and in a few days or weeks it will die without apparent injury in the top to explain the cause. In almost all instances Crown Call or Hairy Root will have proven the cause of this. In buying peaches, June buds will make quite as good trees as one year olds. They are always smaller and the freight charges will be much less. At the Experiment Station, June budded trees, not more than eight inch's high, were set 18 to 20 feet in an orchard. They were in full bearing quite as soon as one year old trees, and five years after setting it would have been impossible to have distenuished from the larger sized trees planted in another orchard. The following is a good list of varieties for commercial planting. All are named in the order in which they mature. Apples: Yellow Transparent, Early Harvest. Red June, Duchess. These are all summer varieties and are highly recommended for Middle and West Tennessee, where it is believed they will prove more profitable than winter sorts. Delicious, Grimes, Golden, Rome Beauty, York Imperial, Ben Davis, Stayman, Winesap, Paragon, Old Fashioned Winesap. Of these the four first named require cold storage, but all can be grown with profit in the State. Peaches: Greensboro, Carmen, Belle, Elberta, for home use and near market one may add to the above list Sneed, Mountain Rose, Champion, Stump, Salway. Cherries: Mont Morenci, Ordinaire, English Morello. In some parts of the State, Early Richmond is also successful. Until a remedy for blight can be found it is not advisable to plant pears. Very steep lands should never be planted with fruit because of the difficulty of cultivation and spraying the trees on such lands. Almost all high lands, slope more or less, and if the ground has any tendency to wash, the orchard rows should follow the lay of the land. In the direction up and down the hills the rows may be equal distance apart, but on the contour of the land it will be impossible to have the distances equal, and thus contour planting will always be uneven, but the great advantage in tillage for the prevention of washing and the great ease of spraying will more than offset this. As soon as peaches and apples are planted they should be pruned. If the one year old apple tree is bought, it should be cut back to a height of two and a half feet. If two year old trees are bought the crown should be trimmed and the limbs should be cut back so as in some measure to make the top balance the roots, which have been greatly reduced in digging. In the peach, cut off all side branches and cut back the main stem to two feet. The following winter the peach should be pruned so as to have three shoots equally distant from one another. All other shoots should be cut away. These three should be cut back to about the length or two feet, and all of their side shoots cut off. The trees will thus resemble a surveyor's trunk inverted.

PRICES. the crown of the tree is to develop. Apples may be trained either with a central stem formation, the side branches radiating like the steps of a circular stairway, or with an open crown, somewhat like that recommended for peach. Cherries will require much less pruning than either apple or peach. The principal thing being to prevent branches from crossing and rubbing one another. In the cultivation of the orchard the most desirable cultivated crops are those which do not shade the trees and require tillage during the early part of the growing season. Corn and small grains should not be put in the orchard. Soy beans, cotton and any other low growing truck crop, such as potatoes, tomatoes, etc., are excellent crops for the orchard. After the first two years the strawberry is a good crop for orchard planting. Whatever the crop grown, it should be removed early enough to sow rye, winter oats or wheat with crimson clover, in time to make a good cover before winter sets in. As a rule these crops should be sown not later than the first of September. Early sowing is especially necessary for crimson clover, a crop that is of special value in orchards, because it adds to the nitrogen in the soil. The winter cover crops prevent soil from washing and the compacting of the soil, and thus enables it to absorb the winter rains, which otherwise, largely run off from the surface and would be lost to the orchard. Whatever the cover crop, it should be plowed in to as great a depth as possible in the spring. If the land is poor, the cover crop should be left to grow until the grains begin heading, when it should be plowed as deep as possible. The land should be thoroughly diseased and harrowed and then sowed broadcast with cow peas, which also should be plowed under and followed by another cover crop. Reinforced for fertilizer, this treatment should make almost any land ready for growing soy beans. Whatever the crops used they should have for their purpose the improvement of the soil during the time the orchard is getting old enough to bear. It is never wise to seed down orchards to grass. The system known as grass cultivation in the North, implies first a very perfect stand of some strong growing grass, such as orchard grass and alsike clover. The grass is to be cut two or three times during the growing season and allowed to lay where it falls, thus in time making a mulch on the soil. It is difficult and in many cases impossible, to secure a perfect stand of grass in the South; for this reason, continuous cultivation is much better in Tennessee orchards. The spraying of the orchard is a matter that will be discussed in separate paper, and the harvesting and marketing are matters largely to be learned by experience. It will be seen from the above outline, that unless a man is prepared to give good attention to an orchard, he had best not plant the trees. None of these proved that fact growing in unprofitable in this State, they are merely monuments of neglect. In every case where orchards have been given intelligent care they have proven a source of profit to the owner. NON-RESIDENT NOTICE. December Rules, 1911. Thomas Sowell vs. Alice Sowell.
