Short Crops.

The people have had three years of
short crops, and have been forced to
ecOnOmiZe as never before. They
have discovered that they can get
along with great deal less when
necessity forces them TO it than they
otherwise might do. The trouble
with some people is that they do not
begin to economiZe ut the right time
1t is not because they do not realize
the necessity for economy, or that
they are careless and indifferent; it
is from force of habit, they having
been used to plenty all their lives
making it hard for them to be seem :
ingly stingy. While there is plenty
is the time tn practice economy, and
not after the supply is nearly eX-
hausted. With the proper care and
Judgment IN feeding the stock this
winter the majority of the farmers in
this section viii manage to- pull
through without having to buy any
great Quantity of corn next year. We
earnestly hope that the year 1903
will be a favorable one for farming,
and that once more the deserving
farmers will have plenty.-Newton

A FORTUNATE DISCOVERY.

1t seems That B. c. Hemphill has
stirred up another hornets nest. 1t
seems that the covering for the pipes
in the new school building is TO be of
asbestos, a paperl like material that
will not burn. This was according to
contract. Instead of this Mr.. Hemp
hill discovered the other day that
many of the pipes were being covered
with paper and the work of covering
all the others with the same material
was III progress. He called the at
tentiOn OF the contractor or the fore
man, and this person at once ordered
the covering torn off and telegraphed
for asbestos Mr.. Hemphill thinks
that if the discovery had not been
made it would not have been but a
short time before the building would
have been burned TO the ground, as
fire passes through some of the pipes
which had already been covered with
this cheap material 1t seems that
the contractor had not noticed that
it was not genuine asbestos and ex-
pressed some surprise when he was
told that it was nothing more than

COTTAGES FOR RENT
a Big Syndicate Proposes to Erect
Some in the South.

1t is rumOred that some western
capitalists are about to send represen-
tatives to several of the towns in this
state, Natchez included, to buy up q
lot of property with the view of
building a number Of pretty, comfort
able four and five-roOm cottages to be
rented for $40 and $40 per month. This
is something much needed in Natchez,
and will beyond all shadow of doubt
prove paying investment, as the city
is constantly increasing in popula-
ton, and there is more of a demand
now than ever before for small
houses. "-Natchez Bulletin.
Vicksburg would like to have about
a million-dollar slice of this pie, and
if that much money was expended
by these capitalists i'll putting up
rentable cottages, it is more probable
that they would all be rented before
the carpenters were done with the
work. Whoever and wherever these
wonderful men are, let them show up
and invest some of their money here.

There are two John Smiths in the

at the row, but laughed when they
learned the reason. A green goods

John Smith. 1t was delivered by

OUR FOUNDRY.

Some people abroad do not know
unless they read the Progress, just
what Hattiesburg is doing III manu-
featuring way Yesterday the Wat
kins Machine Shops and Foundry
turned out a lot of chilled car wheels
and some more today. This is a piece
of work that is not done by every
foundry, in fact by only one other i'll
the state if the Progress has not been
misinfOrmed.
Hattiesburg may be designated n
way station on the Northeastern road,
but it is about the busiest one. And
this foundry is only one Of the hun
dreds of manufacturing industries we
have here and many more in sight.
1t would be an interesting page in
the history of Hattiesburg if the next
few years of its existence could be
placed before the public. 1t would
show that the city had grown more
rapidly in population and wealth than
any other city i'll the state if not in
the south for the same length of time.
Indications show every day that the
growth of the city will be wonderful
in the next decade and that already
there are preparations being made fol

CRITICISED BY ELIOT.
President of Harvard College Assai1s
the System of Educntton
in an Address.

New Haven, Conn, Oct. TO- Great
strikes and other labor troubles are a
reflection on the intelligence of the
American people and an indication OF
the failure of the modern system OF
education in the public schools, ac-
cording to Charles w. Eliot, president
of Harvard university. in an address
here Friday. That universal SUI
frage has proved failure also was in
sisted upon by President Eliot, who
told of the bad government in large
cities to prove his point. In his adj
dress, which was delivered before 5000
of the public school teachers of Con-
necticut, President Eliot denounced
the prevalence of gambling, drinking,
immoral theaters, industrial strikes,
riots, lynching and yellow journalism.
His address was at the annual state
teachers convention, and he used the
title, "Why the Present Expenditure
for the Public Schools Is Too SMALL
His attack on the evils he named was
introduced as the result of imperfect
educational facilities.
