This Cotton Is King,
EsoNDALE. MISS, Aug. %. lg

ESoNDALE MISS, Aug %, 1908.
Editor KEMPER HERALD:
"Carrye" wants to know about
"Old Bills" cotton. Well, it
would be playing into the hands
of the ''bears" to let out all the
facts about our cotton, bnt we
will just mention a few things
about it. AS to fruitage, we
will say that we undertook the
counting of the bolls on an aver
age stalk. We began at the bot
tom and counted upward, and
made it $50 bolls. To be certain
of no mistake we counted again
and was surprised to find 800
bolls. Being somewhat mysti-
fed, we stepped back and took
look and the mystery was ex-
planned. While we had been
counting the blossoms had fallen
off and hatched out so bolls.
Looking around over the patch
we could see the blossoms Jump
ing off and Matching out bolls
like popcorn in hot oven. So
you see how she is truiting.
Being spots where the stand
was not good, we planted the
skips in bush beans. When we
went to hoe the beans, we found
that the cotton had spread out,
covering skips eight feet and
covered the beans out of sight.
So you can judge of how it is
spreading itself.
Noticing that the factories up
North have been shut down for
want OF cotton, and feeling sorry
for those poor people out of a
job, we have been plowirg and
hurrying the crop forward as
much as possible. But we will
have to stop-it is getting dan.
gerous. The single tree struck
stalk and Jared down a boil,
which struck our pardner, Jim,
on top OF the head and knocked
him senseless. So you can have
some idea OF it's altitude.
Now, my dear niece, before
you tell US about your cotton, we
want you to go to meeting and
get religion. We don't think it
fair Tor a Christian man like
"Old Bill" to have to compete
with sinner.
As to the corn, it is for new
subscribers only. O. B. w.

The Meridian Press of Tues
day morning contained an an
nouncement that, pending nego-

publication of the paper would
be temporarily suspended after

regretted. The Press is one of

papers in the State, newsy and

In the race for Railroad Com

an obstacle to Mr.. Bradley's be

seems that the law requires the
