Homegrown watermelOnS and can
UeloupeS have began to make their ap-
pearance in central and south Missis-
Slppi. The peach crop of the state is
reported to be light, it having been
much damaged by the late frost and
sleet. Last week the truck growers
of the Crystal Springs neighborhood
shipped nearly $50 Car loads of vege-
tables by freight, and 13l, ,4s5 crates
of tomatoes by express. Total ship

$50. 600 crates. Hazlehurst is credited
with shipping over 100 cars and Call

SSThe QueeU Of Sicily ~

Syracuse calls itself the capital of the
south, but it has no cause to dispute
pride of place with Palefnlo. The met
ropolitan city is superior in popula
tion, wealth and much else, but it is de-
ficient in what it's ancient and glorious

there any Hellenic town to compare
with the queen of Sicily" AS a sane
tuary, Delphi is far more impressive
than anything in Sicily, as a national
meeting place Olympia has no rival.
but nowhere except at Athens is a
Greek city to be seen today which has
the proud record of the marvellous me-

Truly Rural,

There are chunks of inspiration
In a bunch Of country air.
Take a trolley to the country
And get off most anywhere;
Or, still better. hitch up Dobbin
For a distant rural drive
Back to nature. and 1 venture
You'll be glad you are alive.
Breathing in the balmy ozone,
Gazing on the flowers Of spring.
Gladly soaking in the sunshine,
Listening to the brides sing,
Will be good for your complexion
Or for twitches In your back
And fine thing for your liver
II it's slightly out of whack.
Through your glossy whiskers play
Making music soft and soulful,
You'n be glad you came away;
Glad you left the noisy city
For the rugged rural trail,
If you do not meet a rainstorm
Mixed with chunks Of storied hail.
Charter, then. the raging trolley
Or put Dobbin in the thills;
For your health twill do more busi-
ness
Than a bunch OF doctor bills.
Get out where the grass is growing.
Donning its new hummer dress,
Where you'll feel like turning hand
springs,
And you'll sleep that night, guess.

The state supreme court rendered
a decision on Monday declaring uncon-
StitutiOnal the recent legislative act
which sought to impose a privi-
lege tax on all parties who
loaned money on personal prop
erty. The court indicated that it re-
gretted the necessity of making the
decision but stated that the act was
clearly class legislation. 1t was the
purpose of the legislature to reach
those parties who loan money at usu-
riOuS rates OF interest on furniture
and other chattelS of the kind. 1t is
to be regretted that the act was not
SO framed as to not conflict with the
constitution.

THE LABOR QUESTION.

1t is apparent that the number of
labOrerS in the South is inadequate to
the demand on the farms, in the fac
tories, for road building. etc. Some
thing must be done to relieve the Sit
uatiOn, if the present pace of progress
is to be maintained. What this some
thing shall be, is the problem.
While not Understanding the i'm
portance of material prosperity, the
people of the South have always
placed (and will continue to place, we
trust) higher estimate upon good citi-
zenShip than upon mere commercial
ism. and consequently in seeking a So
luton Of the labor problem we must
keep uppermost the idea that in add
ing to the quantity of our citizenship
the quality must not be impaired.
1t is better to need more people and
have the need unSupplied than to Gre
ate danger by an influx of an unde-
Sirable laboring element. The great
opportunities existing in the South
should and will attract people who
will make good citizens, but it will
require time to secure enough of this
sort. So let us not exercise undue
haste in the effort to meet the exist
ing demand.
At the same time let us facilitate
settlement of the question of increas-
ed population by making known the
and opportunities OF the
South to both laborerS and capital
ISIS, with full assurance that a cor
dial welcome awaits the right sort of
folks of both classes. eS.-Rural South.
