The many friends of Mrs. Sallie
Richards will wish her bon voyage
TO the jamestown Exposition, for
she won the trip by persistent labor,
despite the fact that her health has
not been good for several months.
The Maryland Casualty Co., which
she represents here, offered free
trip to the Exposition to the agent of
the company writing the largest
amount of business for three months
and Mrs. Richards beat everybody IN
the race. She left last Sunday for
Diamond Springs to recuperate

AFTER TWELVE YEARS.

Milford Center o., Sells Its Light and
Water Plant to BE Rid of White
Elephant.
In a recent issue the Municipal Jour
nal and Engineer announced that the
municipal light and water plant of Mil
ford Center, o., was to ,be sold at
auction. The following was received
in response to a request for further in
formation from the president of the
village:
81 beg to say that the reason for the
sale of the municipal light and water
plant is the failure of municipal own
ership to operate the plant as econom-
ically as private interests could"
J. L. Boylan of the board Of trustees
of public affairs writes more fully:
"On account Of fast increasing de-
ficiency 1t Is deemed best to dispose of
the plant. We have had twelve years
of municipal ownership and have been
fortunate in getting good business men
at the head, yet the plant has never
been on a self supporting basis and is
now in need Of q great amount Of re-
pair, without any better outlook for
sufficient income to warrant expense
We therefore wish to get rid Of q
white elephant"

familiarity with and deep interest in

discussion.
Prof. J. W. Fox, of the Greenville

merriment was occasioned bv the fact
that as soon as the name Fox" was

which were in crate on exhibition
commenced to raise hubbub necessi-

evidently thinking that their proverb-
ial enemy, Sly Reynard. was meant
instead Of the affable and urbane pro-
fessor. Prof. Fox gave the corn club
boys-and incidentally many of their
elders-valuable pointers, advice and
information in regard to the culture
of this cereal, which if followed, will
be manifest in largerly increased
yields and better grades of corn next

tural lines, and his remarks were re-
plete with valuable information and
suggestions, and were intently listen
ed to with pleasure and profit by
everybody present. Mr.. Meharg has
been a Mississippi farmer all his life,
which gives added weight to his talks.
He knows whereof he speaks, is no
mere theorist but an intensely practical
farmer of the advanced school. He
emerged from the ''rut" by individual
experimentation many years ago. long
before he became connected with the
U. S. Department of Agriculture.
Hon. w. P. Tackett, in his peerless
style, beld his auditors captivated,
not only on account of his elegant die
tion and superb delivery, but by his
cogent and logical reasoning and
earnest advocacy of an ever widening
research into the illimitable field of
agricultural possibilities and the
adoption of the most modern, advanc-
ed and scientific methods known. His
assurance of Holmes county fair for
next year was particularly gratifying
to all.
The court house clock having an
nounced the hour of high noon,
further speaking was dispensed with
and Prof. w. R. Perkins called upon
to announce the names of the winners,
a list of whom are subjoined.
A little over eighty entries were
made in the corn club contest out of a
membership exceeding two hundred.
The cold wet weather prevented ger
mination of the seed corn of some,
weevils destroyed that of others, and
some of the boys were sick and others
