CORN CROP

On all sides is heard the cry Of failure in the corn
crop is going to be cut Short there is no danger Of
failure. In some few places in the state there may
perhaps, be no yield, butsuch thing failure in
any crop that grows in Mississippi (and that means
most everything is unheard of. Matters may look a
little gloomy now, but when tie harvest time comes
there will be greater returns than anticipated Some
of the western states occasionally make absolute
almost complete failure in Of the crops, but in
Mississippi, never. Another thing, this states pro-
ducts are SO varied that short crop in product
does not nure like it does those states whose produc

THE CHICKEN INDUSTRY.

The West Point Press very correctly says: Some
people look upon the asngs OF chickens as to small an
affair to engage their attention, but right here
to tell the good people of Mississippi that its the little
eaks-those too small for notce-that let out the most
milk in the long is the little odds and ends of
the farm, as well of eveay other business, that
counts farthest in the home stretch, and the best
odds are the old hen. We should be glad if every
farmer in the county would join his good wife in an
endeavo pay for all extra needs Of the coming year,
such as sugar. Coffee flour with the returns from their
chickens and believe that every home with such
motto will come out in the fall more prosperous for
having done so.

SOLVING THE PROBLEM.

Cleveland, Ohio grocer named Soeder, claims to
have discovered process whereby Illuminating gas may
be manufactured dectlyfrom the atmosphere without
the aid of machinery fuel The gas is made by dis
solving certain chemicals in tank filled with compress
sed air. and Soeder claims that the chemicals as
common as grass, and that an steamship can
carry enough in a barrel to make fuel gas for trip
across the ocean. With gas generated directly from
atmosphere and electricity drawn directly from the
ether it would seem that the lighting and heating pro-
bemS have been solved.
