MINERALS IN kIisslsslppI.

A subject now coming in for dis
cussion in the State press is the
prospects OF developing Mississippi's
resources. It Is believed
that the State is rich in minerals,
and that little scientific. investiga-
tion will show several valuable ores
hidden under Mississippi soil. In
discussing the matter the Clarion
Ledger says:
''Two or three counties in the
north eastern portion OF the State are
beginning to attract great deal Of at
tention because Of the discovery of de-
posits OF minerals Of most every kind,
and the organization OF strong COM
pany to develop them. Representa-
tives of the Itawamba Coal and Oil
Development Company are showing
samples of coal, iron, silver, copper
and other minerals that have been
taken from their properties, and
there does not seem to be any room
for doubt that there is fortune in
those everlasting old hills for some
body. Parties from outside the State
recently purchased several Thousand
acres of lands, and it is stated that
they are backed by abundant capital
to develop them. Mississippians
have never DOUBTED that the State is
rich in mineral deposits, but they
have never had the means Of finding
out for certain, or Of pushing what
they did know.
I'm boreing an artesian well in the
city OF Jackson last wetk, the con-
tractor struck, at depth of nearly
one Thousand feet, as fine Ignite and
iron ore as was ever seen the vein
being several feet thick. Scores of
fine but small nuggets of gold have
been picked up in the branches about
Jackson but no person has ever been
able to find where they came from,
though great deal Of time has been
spent in the Search.''
The New Orleans Times Democrat
and the Vicksburg American add
their evidence to what the Clarion
Ledger states, and calls attention to
other specimens of minerals found in
different parts of the State. Missis-
stppi may yet furnish to the world
some of it's best mineral products.

KANSAS AT THE FRONT.

The women of Kansas have won
our admiration. In recent election
in that State for county school boards
they achieved a great victory over the
''lords of creation.'' AS is we'll
known, Kansas has been the subject
of much ridicule recently by reason
of the fact that the county school
boards had been forbidding their fair
teachers to receive the attention of
their gentlemen friends during the
school term. One provision of their
contracts further provided that any
teacher who marries during the school
term would thereby forfeit portion
of her salary. Naturally this did
not strike the fancy of the charming
maidens, and they began to whereas
and resolve. AS result majority
of the newly elected school boards are
women. And they will see to it that
the school mans are allowed to
marry, if they SO elect, provided Of
course, a fitting opportunity presents
itself. Another remarkable thing
about the recent election is, the
women conducted a secret campaign,
thus refuting the idea that they can
not keep a secret. Bully for the
Kansas Women.

There are some people who think,
to use q slang expression, that they
have a "cinch" on everything that 8
good. They act on the supposition
that there is nothing OF value outside
OF their own little circle. They are
impervious to any new idea or method.
Nothing is done right unless it ac-
cords exactly with their way Of doing
it. It never occurs to such sticklers
that their view is limited, and that
they are woefully bound to rut.
When we come into contact with a
man of this kind, we-well, we don t
enjoy it.

Milk is commonly spoken of as a perfect

needed for nourishment. quart of milk,
according to a bulletin of the agricultural
depa ment, contains about the same amount
of nutriment as three quarters of a pound OF
beef. Six ounces of bread would likewise
supply not far from four ounces of nutritive
substances. But while the twelve ounces of
beef and six ounces of bread supply the same
amount of nutriment as the quart of milk,
the nutritive value is not the same, and they
are not equally useful as food.
Milk contains all classes of foods needed
by the human animal; then, why not use 1t
as diet? The obstacle in the way of it is
the matter of digestibility. Some people
