Preparations are being made at

last legislature, and located at that
place. The contest for the site was
lively one, several towns going in
TO win, but Holly Springs finally
landed the plum. It will prove of
much benefit to that section, and is
well worth the time and money ex-
pended in securing it. The hill coun.
try adjacent to Holly Springs is pecu.

would soon be one of the most pro-
ductive sections Of the State. The
station will be put in active operation

From Eastern plain to rivers shore,

One open house of bounteous store,

Here nature, with prolific zest,
Fills plenty's horn with lavish hand,
From North to South, from East to

A new and fairer Canaan-land,

Her corn-cribs, with their yellow yield,
Are Golfers filled with shining gold,
The verdure of each teaming field,
The green-backs which the people

In Mississippi
In virgin forests lie concealed, .
Far richer than Golconda's mines,
Mid snow of every cotton field,
A Klondille which a fortune shines,
In Mississippi.
In mineral springs, whose cooling
drink,
Bring healing in its sparkling foam,
We find within each crystal brink,
Our magic Carlsbad here at home,
In Mississippi.
Nor need we seek meath alien skies,
A balmy cline in foreign lands,
For, fair as Eden-fields, there lies,
Our Riviera on the sands,

To sleep beneath her verdant sod,
To heaven on soaring wings depart,

able or prettier location than he has
would be hard to dnd. His soil is

as ours in Ellis county. Mr.. Clark
devotes his time TO dairying, and
has thirty or forty fine Jersey cows,
uses a cream separator and carries
his milk from bis COW pens to the
separator, pours it up in that ma
chine, begins to turn crank and q
stream of cream begins flowing
from one spout and at the same
time the skinned milk pours from
another spout, and when this is
done, ten minutes is all the time
needed to churn that cream into
butter, and bis butter finds ready
sale at thirty cents per pound. The
skim milk he feeds to his calves
until they get old enough to turn
upon grass, and II is also fed to the
hogs, and he raises large, fine hogs
aud these he sells readily in the
market here at fancy prices. Mr..
CLARK and bis sons and son-in-law
also own 80 acres three miles from
the bay, and here they raise cabbage
and other garden truck. His land
was already nicely plowed and pull
verified deep for cabbage, which he
will sow in September. Mr.. CLARK
