A CHICKEN FARM.

What surprises us most of any
thing is the fact that there is ne
such a thing in the length ant
breadth of this county. We dare
say. then, that there is not a place
in the State where there is such a
demand for eggs and chickens as
this, and there is not another place
that has so poor a supply. Eggs
can be put down as averaging from
25 to 30 cents per dozen the year
round. AS to chickens for the ia,
bic, that is something that can be
only recollected by some of our
old time citizens. The farmers
seem to have forgotten that they
can, or should be raised on the
farm, and so when we do get one
we have to send to New Orleans or
Mobile for it. Sometimes, when an
old hen has passed her usefulness
for laying, she is put upon the
market for the small sum of fifty
cents a head, but it is very seldom
that you ever have a chance to buy
one at all. What strikes us as pc
culiar about this is the fact that
there is not a place on the CONT
nent better adapted to raising
them than right here. We are
here on a good, dry soil, just be-
tween two cities, where we can
buy cheap grain, if we are too lazy
to make it /; where meat for the
fowls could be had simply by a
throw of the cast net, where shells
for lime are abundant and only
need to be burned, and gravel in
any amount.
Every one in this county hat we
have talked to upon this subject
seem to have heard at some peri
cd Of their lives that too many
chickens would not do we'll on a
consequently they never
have any from one years end to
another.
Come, farmers, wake up! Give
this matter a trial and see if it
will not pay you, and instead of
every time you come to town
a few dollars, bring a
basket of eggs and a coop of chick
ems, and instead of leaving your
money, carry some home. If you
would eat one at home OCCASION
ally it would be no great sin, and
besides you would be in a condi.
ton to invite the preacher to call
on you occasionally. Try it.

CANDIDATES. COLUMN.

BY reference To III candidates
column onr readers will meet with
several familiar names. They were
all modest about announcing, but
they have come to the front and
here they are:

this district by an overwhelming
majority, but who has Only served

lion. Mr.. Bloomfield made a fine

but right that he should serve out
The time Tor which he was elected.

Mr.. WALTER M DENNY,
also for collection. He is so well
known 10 our people that it is use-
less TO say much, for so many of

mortal TO be.
Mr.. FRANK II. LEWIS
is again before The people for the
office Of Sheriff. When Frank was
first elected some were afraid that
he was too young for so important
an office, but since he has been in,
he has made a record as an accu-
rate, ra~instaking and efficient off.

finances of the county for some

OBITUARY.

BRO. A. ii. PHELPS was born in 1912,
and died March IL. 1891, aged 20 years.
Sister MARY PHELPS, wife of A. ii. Phelps.
died August 81, 1889, aged about 81 years.
Brother and Sister Phelps came to
Jackson comfy, Miss, about eight years
ago from Clark county, Miss, aud settled
on Fort Bayou. Sister Phelps ended her
pilgrimage at this place. Brother Phelps
moved last year to Puryis, Miss, aud end
cd his life at the house of Bro. Martin
Quaves.
These two good aud useful persons
have gone iuto eternity. Both were
members the Congregational Methodist
Church. All who knew them loved them,
and believe they have gone to the home
of the redeemed spirits, They lived god
ly, Christian lives. Wherever they lived
their influence was felt for good. They
leave behind seven children and a host of
friends to mourn their death, but they do
not mourn as those who have no hope,
but are satisfied that when they see them
again it will be among the redeemed.
Both were laid away in the new q
yard at Shiloh Church, on Fort Bayou, to
await the general resurrection, when the
second coming of Christ will be when the
sea and graves shall give mp their dead.
God grant that the bereaved children
will meet the Son Of God and their par
in peace, is the desire of the writer.

SENATOR DAN. VOORHEES,, the
Tall Sycamore of the Wabash, is
opposed to Grover Cleveland.
He thinks Hill and Gray would
lead the Democrats to victory in
1892. Perhaps the Senator is cor
rect in his views, but we doubt
the policy or propriety of going
back on Grover Cleveland. We
think he is the man to wipe up
the Republicans i'm 1892.

OUR NEXT REPRESENTATIVE.


As a representative from thi
county, and a lloater from Jackson
and Harrison is TO be elected mex
fall, it is time that we were begin
ming to look around for the mel
that will fit these places.
The coming Legislature is des-
Tined to be one of the most impor-
tant sessions that has been held
for a great many years, and we
want men that can represent us
as we should be represented. We
want no Don Quixotes or airy
Drained fy-up-the-creeks, on this
occasion-we want men, clear,
level headed men. Men who know
the wants of our section and who
are able to stand up and battle for
them.
The recent Constitutional Con,
vention has laid out in advance a
great deal of work for the next
Legislature to do besides other
legislation that will naturally
come up. 1t is more than proba-
BILE that a great many amendments
to the recently formed constitu
ton will be submitted, notwith-
standing the convention itself,sup-
posed to contain some of the best
talent in the State, wrangled over
its provisions until we began to
think it would never adjourn, but
some of its provisions are still dis
tasteful to a large portion of our
people.
Our section is perhaps moving
'aster than any portion of the
State, and we can no more be reck-
)ned among the "cow counties ;"
neither do we wish to have any
hing that smachs of an old time
COW county Representatlve-that
vas always on hand, always voted
md always drew his pay-noth-
ng more. We have brainy men
N our section, and now is the time
o bring them to the front.
There is one duty that will de-
volve upon this Legislature that
will be uncommon, and that is the
of two United States
Senators. Before the election
zones off this matter will excite a
yreat deal of interest. and the peo-
Die will very naturally want to
Know how their Representatives
tand on this as on all other ques-
ions.
This particular section needs a
nan who knows something of the
reeds of Jul commerce who val
les the worth of our bays and har-
,ors, the value of our timber, the
Vorth of our oyster beds and fish
.ries. In fact, we should have a
nan, or men that will be good
wherever you put them.
