Strange But True.

1t is strange how so many peo-
pie want to pretend that they are
better than they really are-that
is want people to think that they
stand higher in the community
in a social or businss way than
they really do. In other words,
people will 60 beyond their means
to keep up appearances. They
will try to dress finer than their
means will allow; will 60 to ex-
pense that their income will not
afford-and all because they want
others to think they are something
that they are not. Such conduct
does not benefit those who carry
it out; it does not make others
think more of them, for the other
people are not fooled5 it does not
bring happiness, for those who
seek to keep up appearances in
this manner are always on the
strain. People should endeavor
to be neat and to stand as they
are, but tits foolish and hypocriti-
cal to pretend to be something that
they are not, or to have greater
wealth than they p~ossess.-New-

Socialist Candidate For Congress.

The first appearance OF social
ism in Mississippi has bobbed up
in the Sixth Congressional dis
trict where q. W. Baylis of Hat
tiesburg has been nominated for
Congress on the Socialist platform.
The campaign which will be in
augurated will be watched with
interest by the people of the en-
tire state as nothing Of this kind
has ever appeared in good old
democratic Mississippi before. The
information that there was a
single socialist in the state will
be news to most of IS. Whether
or not Mr.. Baylis is a foreigner
we are not appraised, but surely
he is not a southener. Of course
his candidacy will not amount to
anything, but his campaign against
Hon. E. j. Bowers the able repre-
sentative from that district who
has been re-nominated, will be
watched with much pleasure.

Cotton Crop Outlook.

Cotton crop experts are practl-
cally agreed in the state ment that
Mississippi's cotton crop this year
will not exceed n million bales
DIS compared with 1,439,294 bales
last year. The reduction is all
the more marked on account Of
the fact that there vas an increase
of twelve per cent III the acreage
this year, as compared with last
years acreage.
The crop will undoubtedly be
the smallest for many years. In
1902 the yield was 1,421, 626 bales,
in 1901 it was 1,275,439 bales, in
1900 it was 1,055, 900 bales and in
1899 the crops was 1,264,00a bales.
In many parts of the delta the
damage of the crop within the
past six weeks is placed at from
thirty to fifty per cent, and in
some communities it is almost
total.
The weekly government crop re-
port for the State issued today is
as gloomy as usual in tone and
reiterates the reports of widespread
damage to the crop from various
sources, chiefly the boil worms
which are destroying the green
hollis IN immense quantities.
A crop of less than one million
bales for Mississippi is a rarity,
for such "a thing has happened in
but one instance during the past
dozen years-Grenada Sentinel.

One pupil present from Mont

ed to be in attendance soon from
the same state. 1t only being
known from the first of Septem-
her that the school would open
at all this year, it was not a sur
prise to the manager, that the
opening was small. However
there was an expectation OF better
representation from the town OF
Tupelo. The question has been
raised, in the minds Of some, as to
whether Tupelo really desires or
needs such a school. 1t makes
no difference what answer may be
given this question, the country
at large needs the benefit Of just
such a school as the p%roprietors
are endeavoring to build up. And
the fact that on the first day of
the school, two applicants were
made from the town, itself, for
Just such clerical service as it
proposes to furnish is evidence
that the school is needed. One
of these positions is with a lead
ing wholesale firm of the town and
will pay $40 or $50 per month,
with good prospects of increases
in wages. The other is with one
of the railroads and will pay a
salary of $50 per month, for a
good steady stenographer.

J E. Parker of Sandersville
sold $4,000 worth of Elberta
peaches from eight acres of land.
There was a net profit Of $3.50
per acre to him from his orchard.
Lee county has many thousand
of acres of land that is not at all
profitable to the owners, but if
planted in the Elberts peach would
in a few years bring very hand
some profits. With the growth of
cities all over the cauntry and the
disposition on the part of the peo-
pie to eat more fruit the growth
of fruit will become more prof
table. The northern farmer finds
it a profitable business to raise APP
piles to ship south during the
winter season when we have none.
1t would be equally as profitable
for us to produce summer fruits
to sell them at a time when they
have no fruit.
