next to a typical cowboy, with
wide white som brero, leather leg

of big siXshooters hanging low

evidently the result of a knife
wound, ran from the corner of
his eye to the angle of his jaw,
and his whole appearance was so
sinister and forbidding that l
edged instinctlvely as far away

later big, coal-black negro came
sauntering in and deliberately
seated himself on one of the stools

chances of indignation, but he
was notwithstanding fellow and

Pearl River County
Wins the Experiment
Station,
And Mcneil is the Lucky Town.

The committee appointed by
the Agricultural and Mechanical
College to locate a branch Exper-
iment station in the Southern
part of the State, met in Merid-
ian last Saturday and located the
station at Mcneil. There was
lively competition between some
of the towns along the Northeast
ern, Gulf & Ship Island and l. G..
Railroads, and liberal induce
ments were offered in the shape
of donations of land, money and
lumbe From the best infor-
nation obtainable, the citizens OF
| Mcneil made an offer of 1000
acres of land and about 100000
in cash. The committee after
careful consideration of all the
bids. considered McNeill's the
best and acted accordingly.
While there was considerabl
competition between the differ
ent towns in this county for the
station, we believe that the loca-
ton is a good one and that the re-
suits will be beneficial to the en-
tire county. 1t is the duty of ev-
cry citizen to give this enter prise
all the encouragement possible
and assist in making tia success.
The farmers should now begin
to organize and get themselves in
shape to reap harvest of knowl-
edge from the experiments of
this station and should visit it
once a month in a body and see
what virtue there is in enlighten-
ed methods of farming.
The State is putting out these
experiment stations for the ben
eft of the people and those who
fail to profit therefrom will have
only themselves to blame.
These pine lands are especial
ly adapted to truck farming, and
our people have only to do little
digging to. find pot of gold.
We congratulate our friends of
Mcneil on the progressive spirit
shown in securing this prize, and
trust that their efforts will re-
dound to the rapid development
of their town and community.
Poplarville is going to join hands
with her sister towns in all eff
forts that tend toward industrial
development and make this old
plny woods blossom like a rose.
