NO DANGER TO THE APfLES
I. C. Murphy Declares, However, That
' the Crop of the Latter, Especially
Early Variety Will' Bd Very' Much
Less Than LastlYear. V
(From Tuesday's Daily Herald.)
No damage has bo far been done the
fruit of the county as a result of the
cold weather.. This positive stata
ment Is made on the author.ty of
Isaiah C. Murphy, of Lebanon' Heights
Farm, one of the largest fruit grow-'
crs and most expert orchafdists of
Maury county and the state. Mr.
Murphy has made a careful examina
tion of the fruit nnd he was very
much gratified to find that any f3ars
that he entertained as to the effects
of the freeze were without' founda
tion. ' ' ' . . 1
Mr. Murphy said that the peach
trees could have stood ""at leasl'hve
and maybo more, degrees "o'f 'void th'an
there had been, that the ice that form
ed on the buds was not severe enougn'
and did not remain long'''enougn 'ta''
do any 'damage. The b'nds are unus
ually advanced clue to the mild weath
er of the : winter and the warm clays
this month, but withiall that they
could have stood a temperature of
twenty degrees iii the judgment of
Mr. Murphy. , , . .
No harm has of course been dona
the applet, said Mr. Murphy, because
the aiiple can. always stand much se
verer cold than, ths peach unci Is noth
ing 'like as far advanced. . But he is
not optimistic about the size of the
apple crop this year. This Is not due
to the weather conditions, but to the
big yield of last year. The early ap
ple crop of 11)20 was a ccrker; the
yield wns exceptionally heavy and Mr.
Murphy has oxuniined these trees aril
estimates, UwL Ujero is not over twenty-five
per ceiB, gs many buds as tUftre
were A yeai ago(v ;;.;- ." - .
Some kt the varieties of winter, ap
ples clid not yield, so heavy and of
these, there may ' be a fairly good
y.ield, provided the weather continues
favorable. ' Tlie cold weather , will
tave a helpful effect here as it will
stop the unkcasonablo ' growth on
trees and plants. " '-' ' h !' --

(From Monday's Daily Herald.)
NEW YORK, Feb. 21 The romance
that had its beginning many years
ago in Columbia, Tenn., where Dr. Jas.
J. King was a young man at school,
and where a pretty little gbrl from
Texas was also studying, reached its
climax Saturday afternoon, February
19, in tho chapel of St. Dartholmews
church in New York City.
Dr, J. J. King, who has been for sev
eral terms president of the Tennessee
Society 'in New York, was marriet to
one of his most active assistants in
the affairs of the society, Mrs.' Virginia
Berne Lawrence was the same" pretty
Jittle girl grown up.
The wedding-ceremony was per
formed by Rt. Rev. 'Thomas F. Gaiior,"
Bishop of Tennessee and prsldent 'of
the Episcopal Council of America, who
lias been for many years an intimate
friends of the bride and groom, as
Bishop Gaiior often preached at Co
lumbia, Tenn. .
Only the family of the bride witness
ed the ceremony by reason of the
bride being in deep mouring for her
mother, who died recently and pre
vented their holding an elaborate wed
d.ng ceremony. , E. A. Kellogg was
beet man. - " . .
Mrs. Kini was born in 'Marshall,
Texas and 'went to school, in the
Athenaeum at Columbia, Tenn., the
birthplace of Dr. J. J. King.
The bride wore a simple gown of
gray and the groom aj conventional
cutaway. '
After luncheon. at the bride's" home,

Dr, J. M. Roblson, whose resignation
as pastor of the Central Presbyterian
church at Culleoka, was announced .on

terestln;; and useful career as a min
ister in this county. When he came to
his present charge at Culleoka twelve
yeai'3 ago it was without property.

as a result of the union of the Cunv

that community. '""It has extended its

of the -state, leaders in-various, lines

and speakers at this church in recent
years. '
No appeal for any good, cause, at
home or abroad, has ever been refused
by the church. Its per capita contr!
tuitions to missions and , to .benevo
lences will compare favorably with
any congregation in the" country in
this state? During the war, the church
time and again, In every drive, on ov

The pulpit was used weekly to ad

stars thereon testify to the valor of

Dr. Robison has been a leader in the

builder. He has been active in every
movement in all that section for ad
vanoement. During the last year of
the war and the year following, wjien
there was such a scarcity of teachers
Dr. Rolson consented,-jn addition tc
the heavy duties of his pastorship, to
serve ks principal of the school' at Cul
