The Harvey farm near McComb
City is an example of what can be
accomplished by intelligent handling
Of our Mississippi lands. 1t recently
produced half q bushel of sweet po-
tatoes that contained only six of the
tubers. Mr.. Morrow, the manager,
has already picked seventeen bales of
cotton from sixteen acres of land and
will gather two or three bales more.
On this same land he raised enough
cabbage IN the spring to pay for the
entire cost of cultivation and hand
ling for the year. Over 100 hogs have
Dcen sold this year and bountiful
supply Of milk, butter and chickens
provided. Some of this land produced
as high as two and half bales of
cotton the fact being vouched for by
reliable men. This is an example of
real farming and is testimonial to
the productlveness of the lands in
Pike courty. What has been done on
The Harvey farm can be done on thou
sands Of others with the same intel
igent handling.

The truckers near Holly Springs are
getting along nicely. The Reporter
last week announced that one man
had sold $500 worth of Strawberries
from two acres Of land. Others havd
done nearly as we'll and it seems an
assured fact that the industry will
be enlarged greatly for next season
The land in that section is a warm,
sandy loan and there is every reason
why truckers should do well up there.
Mississippi offers large dividends
for thes expenditure of energy.

The Tupelo Journal and Aberdeen
Examiner have notices last week con.
cernlng cotton wrapped in material
made from low grades and comment
favorably on the feasibility of using
storm cotton and linters for such g
purpose. Yet, there are those who will
contend that such a scheme is a So.
phlstry and impracticable. 1t is 6
pity that the motives of such parties
cannot be made public. The jute
trust has run the price of ordinary bag
glng to where there are number of
fibres that could be used if the peo-
pie would stand behind the promoters
OF the project. There will always be
found those to look after the inter-
ests of big manufacturers and trusts,
but what is greatly desired right now
IS for men with backbone to assist
IN checking the scheme of these fell
lows.

department, the Farmers Union OF
Iallabusha county recently pooled
their cotton at Water Valley and in
y1ted buyers to meet them there to
eject a sale. Over 1000 bales were
Offered and the success Of the move
ment was everything that could be de-
sired. Middling cotton sold at 11.20
and the lowest storm grade brought
$50, which was fully one-half or three
quarters Of cent above the ruling
street prices for such cotton at the
time. The farmers had the situation
we'll IN hand and the success attained
further demonstrates the worth of
organization. A few bales offered
would only bring prevailing prices,
but in large lots the top'of the market
is easily obtained Estimating the in
crease in prices by pooling at one
half cent per pound on the 1900
bales sold the planters netted $4,000
Is this not convincing argument of

derstanding or agreement have made

try is overrun and it is absolutely
necessary that the farmers organize tG
