SOUND ARGUMENT.

He said he always patronized
home people first and southern peo-
pie next, because he knew them
better, and could reach them quick
err. He knows there are just as
good and stronger companies that is
companies with greater capital in
the north. And he always felt safe
in insuring in The Mississippi
Home Insurance Company because
he had never experienced any trou-
BILE with it, and if he should have a
difference with it, he could get at
the company promptly.
P. S. George, and Nardanan &
Stein are the Greenwood agents.

One Of the ridiculous arguments
being used by Vardaman support.
crs in the senatorial contest is that
Williams should stay in the house
Of representatives in the hope that a
democratic congress will be elected
and that he will be made speaker,
while if yardaman is defeated for
the senatorship there remains no Of
fee for him to hold. Such people
seem to think that Mississippi owes
a political debt to both these gen.
tlemen and both must be taken
care Of. We do not see it that way
There will be a vacancy in the sen
ate and the people of the state
should select the best mar TO fill it
regardless Of what may become O
the other.--Hernando Times-Pro
moter.

Beauvoir, the Mississippi home
for Confederates, from all the good
things that have been said Of it, has
become the ideal place for the desc
late battle Scared. Editors who
visited the home while attending the
press association at Gulfport extol it
through their sheets. 1t is a credit
to Mississippi patriotism thus tC

The esteemed Aberdeen Weekly
makes the following pointed com
ment on the Mississippi Senatorial
contest
The preference as between Gov
ernor Vardaman and John Sharp
Williams for the United States
Senate is becoming manifest all over
the State. As the campaign advan-
ces, it will become more manifest
until the minority leader will perch
victory on his banner in the election
Of 1907.

ander building, Tulsa, |. T.
Wheat.-There was no cables this
morning, but the market opened firm
and advanced \, cent above Satur-
days close on very small buying, The
nit crowd were inclined to go short
but found little offerings, the princi-
pal buying being by Rankin & Pringle,
Conditions in the Northwest were re-
ported ideal and the market there
quoted prices higher, They were
sending selling orders to Chicago in
the July option. Snow reported that
conditions in the Northwest were
never better and the crop was almost
perfect, and that the average increase
would be ten per cent increase in
acreage in the Canadian Northwest
which would point to an increase of
about ten per cent, or about 125,O0O,-
600 bushels.
The Ohio Valley reports wheat in
good condition, the tate report gave
the conditions as 05 per cent, against
1913 last year. 1t gave the statement
that the deterioration was caused by
dry weather, The visible supply de-
creased 1,152,0OO and the total is now
3O.3l1 900 bushels.
Wheat on passage showed de-
crease of 100000. Bromhall's re-
port of foreign conditions was gen
orally favorable.
The average trader is usually sell
inc wheat at this time of year on
prospects, but the crop killer is us
uaIly the busiest in July, and unless
we get more seasonabe weather he
will be here before the last Of this
month.
Receipts today were II cars in Chi
cayo. 81 in Kansas City and 23S in
the northwest, against PA last year
Corn.-Receipts were fair and while
there was no export demand, the do
nestle demand was sufficient to take
care Of the offerings.
If the receipts for this month fol-
low the previous five years average
for June, it is possible that We will
see very much lower prices. The
year of the drouth, 1901, was the only
exception. 1t is possible that we may
have another 1901 on corn and would
prefer to stay on the long side of the
market on every break.

The visible supply increased l,O6l, :

Oats decreased l,l47 900 bushels.
The Ohio state crop condition on
oats is given as 70, against 93 last
year.
Provisions-Receipts of hogs were
only 10000. The market opened
strong, Pork advanced from 10 to
Is cents but ribs were easily the
leader, especially for July delivery.
We do not look for any great change
in the market, temporarily prices may
be left at these figures, pending an
other advance in the future

MONSTER APPLE CROP.
Crop OF Apples now Coming to Market
Will be Largest Ever Known in
the State Of Missouri Twenty
Five Million Trees.
Columbia Herald.


The Missouri apple crop is coming to
market. 1t will be the largest crop
known in the states history. In 1901
the year known in state history as the
dry year, not because of the lid but be-
cause of lack OF rain, the percentage
OF the apple crop was larger than 1t
will be in 1905. But the orchard ac-
reage was not so large in 1901 as
now. Missouri leads the United Stat
es in number of apple trees. L. A.
Goodman Of Kansas City, for years
secretary Of the Missouri Horticnltu-
raj Society, states that there are now
25, 900, 900 apple trees in Missouri.
This largely exceeds the number in
any other state. New York, Oldest
apple growing region In America, is
second, illinois third Michigan fourth
in acreage Of apple orchards.
