YearS-ASsoCiations
BEING ORGANIZED ALONG LINE OF
The Northeastern Exports to For.
eign Countries Expected
Special to the Daily Progress.

Jackson, Miss, Oct. 20.-There
has been general awakening of in-
terest in truck farming in Mississippi
during the past few months, and it is
probable that the next season will
show an increase of nearly fifty per
cent in the output shipped to the
northern and eastern markets from
this state.
Interest is particularly lively along
the line of the Illinois Central from
Jackson southwestward to the Louis
lana line, and at a number of the
small communities truckfarming asSo-
Citations have been organized.
McComb City, Summit and Halle
hurst are aspiring to rival Crystal
Springs, the largest tomato growing
center in the country, and they will
be actively in the field next year.
Along the line of the Northeastern
road truekfarming associations are
being organized and experienced farm
ers secured to give the association
members their first lessons in modern
fruit and vegetable farming
Next year Mississippi will have to-
matoes for export to foreign countries,
principally England and France, and
it is learned that several prominent
truckers will engage extensively in
this business. The experience of the
past several years has shwon that the
tomato is the most profitable that can
be grown III this section. The crop
| is rarely failure, and the market
prices are generally high throughout
the season, it being no uncommon Oc-
currence for farmer to make 5000
net profit from all acre of tomatoes
| III one season.
In the northern part of the state
there is some talk among the farmers
to engage in fruit and vegetable cul-
ture to supply the Memphis market,
and to put the products in the north
and east when the crop in the south
ern section is depleted. The rail
roads are offering every possible en-
couragement to the industry, and di-
versifed farming has been so con-
stantlyii.preached to- that it is COM
mencing to have the desired effect.

WARDEN PARCHMAN
Is Being Prosecuted by Political
Enemies,
Special to the Daily Progress.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, Oct. 20.-The comment Of
the press Of the state on the peniten-
tiary muddle and the recent charges
of embezzlement made against Warden
Parchman by Commissioner Kincan-
non is of a varied nature, but in gen
eral tone it indicates the political alli-
ance of the editor and confirms the
deep seated belief in the public mind
that whole lot of unsavOry politics
is mixed up in the affair. and that
the lnin, for the sensation Is some
thing more than high sense of pub
lie duty. Public sentiment is strongly
with the warden, and the belief is
widely prevalent that he is being
persecGted by his political and per-
sonal enemies, the loose bookkeeping
system being used as a lever to this
end.
The point has been reached, how
ever, when the people generally are
heartily tired Of continual round of
alleged sensations which turn out to
be more nonsense when given careful
and impartial investigation Warden
Parchman has been under the lime
light so long that the public would
like to have a new feature in the per
formance.

And Some Others Still in the Race,
But Others
ARE NATURALLY DROPPING OUT.
No State Issues in Which the Public
IS Much Interested.
Special to the Daily Progress.

jackson, Oct. 20-The guberna
torial campaign has quieted down con-
siderably during the past week and
there has been a decided clump in the
manifestation of interest so apparent
during the early part of the month.
There has been no less activity
among the candidates during the week
than heretofore, which in measure
accounts for the loss of interest. The
chief cause, however, is the deep
seated belief in the public mind that
the campaign has been launched too
early, and in many quarters it has
met with the frown of disapproval Oh
account of the fact that the premature
contests are invariably in CONNER
cial and indstrial channel.
Again, the campaign has con-
tained no issues in which the public is
interested just at present. The prop
osition to divide the school fund be-
tween the races and allow the negro
only such schools as the taxes he pays
will support has been thoroughly
threshed over until it is now thread
bare, and the conclusion is somewhat
universal that the time is not ripe III
Mississippi for such a radical innova-
tion in educational matters. AS this
is the only feature of consequence in
jected into the campaign, and the
average citizen caring little for the
personal views of the gubernatOrial
aspirant ON national topics, it is not
surprising that they should stay away
from joint debates and public speak
ings.
The state press has seemingly ex-
hausted the list of probabilities, and
forward for inspection during the
week, while many of the suggestions
heretofore made have been received
with profound silence and lack of en-
thusiasm that does not augur well for
their ambitions. The wedding out"
process is yet in the distance, but
when the time for the final lineup at
the post is reached it is not believed
that there will be over five or six act
ual entries from the list of fifteen
names that have been presented for
consideration.
KincannOn, Noel, Critz and Ward
aman are practically certain as
factors in the campaign, and the re-
manning actual entries can be deter
mined only by future developments.

DECREASE IN PERSONAL VALUES
Attributed to the Non-Performance
of Officers Duties.
Special to the Daily Progress.

Jackson, Miss, Oct 20-The de-
crease in personally values as shown
ON the assessment rolls received at
the auditors office from several
counties serves to call attention to
the fact that the assessors are not
strictly observing the law in compell-
ing property owners to sign the assess
ment blank on which they take oath
that the valuations given in are cor
rect. 1t is doubtful if a single asses
sor in Mississippi administered an
oath from property owner during
the past years, and many instances
are known where they did not even
require signature from the person
assessed. This is given as the chief
reason for the decrease in personally
valuation reported from many eoun-
ties, and if the grands juries of these
counties would take the trouble to
make an investigation of the subject
they would doubtless find much evi.
dence on which to base true bill.
