Touch Beefsteak.

A remark was inadvertently over
heard the other day in one of the
prominent hotels, which was in sub
stance that, while the meat inspec-
ton might be all right, the beefsteak
was as tough as ever. Meat inspection
guarantees that every animal shall
be healthy, and the meat fit for food
it does not guarantee that all ami
mails killed shall furnish juicy meat.
The question is often asked: "Why
do we have so much better meat in
the east than they do in the west?"
The difference is easily explained: In
the east the range conditions do not
exist; the animals are fed and kept
growing every day from their birth.
In the west range conditions largely
prevail 1t is either feast or a fam
inc; animals thrive on the rich, nu-
tritious grasses of the western ranges
during the summer, and in the winter,
in most cases, are allowed to shrink
An animal that has once become poor
will never make good, juicy beefsteak
afterwards, no matter how fat he may
be at the time of killing This is the
secret of tender beef and the reason
why we do not get good meat in this
"OoIOiA COuuIly, WuCI0 luO i've SUCK
business is one of the cardinal in
dustries.
This complaint about tough beef
steak is as old as civilization in the
west. 1t is bound to continue more
or less until farmers learn that there
is more money in baby beef, and in
keeping the calves growing every day
from the time they are born until
they are year and half old, and
then selling them for the market In
this way the producer profits by the
growth of the early life of the animal.
The profit in feeding an animal grad
ually increases until the steer is a
year and half old. In fact, there is
very little, if any, money in the small
additional growth of the animal after
this age. The matter of tough beef is
up to the producer, and not to the
food inspector.

we'll and the stockmen grazing under
permit in the STRIPS of ranges within
the boundaries of the forests will be
saved many thousands of dollars an
nually. An indirect good coming from
the governments activities will be to
spur ranchers grazing outside of the
national forests to join in the work
of Kidding the western ranges of des-
tructive animals. Besides the great
saving through preventing the loss
of stock, further encouragement is
given the work in may states where
bounties as high in some cases as
$50 head are given for killing wolves,
and $40 to $50 a head for mountain
lions.
The eleven forest service hunters
are distributed as follows: Sawtooth
forest, Idaho, two men; Yellowstone
forest, Wind River division, Wyoming,
two men; Highwood Mountain forest,
Montana, one man; Grand Canon for
est, Northern division. Arizona one
man; Park Range forest, Colorado,
one man; Dixie forest, Utah, one man;
Trinity forest, California, one man;
Imnaha forest, Oregon, one man;
Montezuma forest, Colorado, one man
These hunters submit reports of the
results of their work through the SUI
pervisors of the forests upon which
they are employed. A large number
of applications for similar co-opera-
ton have been made by the local stock
associations, indicating their appre-
citation of the value of this part of
the forest service. These applications
are being acted upon as suitable men
are found to fill the positions and the
funds set aside for this work will
permit their employment
The forest service hunters have
many exciting experiences in thei-
work and sometimes even the Oldest
and most tried westerners have very
close calls for their lives.

Duroc Jerseys at State Fair.
NV. r. White

The Cherry Red Herd of Duroc Jer-
sey hogs, of Mabton, Wash, was rep
resented at the State fair by 26 head
of all different sizes. Whites Buster,
the herd sire, attracted the attention
of the people by the size for a pig of
Is months, Buster being the sire of
1000 pigs on foot, with an average
of about ten to the litter. Sunnyside
Belle, in the aged SOW class, will be
the dam of three filters this year.
Sunnyside Belle, the only hog in the
grand parade, carried the ribbons won
by the herd. Zoe S., with her family
of ten, was admired by all. Any per-
son or child could enter the pen and
pick up a pig without fear of being
molested by the SOW. The remainder
of the herd were pigs from eight
weeks to four and half months old.
The Duroc Jerseys outclass the other
herds in several different ways. First,
on being the most prolific; second, on
being dOcile, yielding quicker to kind
treatment than any other class. The
Durocs are very healthy class of
hog, being provided by nature with
thick skin and heavy coat of hair,
enabling them to endure intense heat
and severe cold. It. is their nature
to gather their own feed in the har-
vest field or the alfalfa, the matured
hogs breeding and living exclusively
on alfalfa.

Predatory Animals on Ranges.

Substantial evidence that the gov
eminent is determined to put forth
every effort to bring the national for
est lands to the highest point of de-
velopment is given in the activities
of Uncle Sam in planning the eradica-
ton of predatory animals which de-
stroy annually thousands of dollars
worth of stock running on the ranges
in the forests. Eleven experienced
trappers and hunters, whose knowl-
edge of conditions and training in the
great west qualities them to hunt
wolves, cougars, mountain lions, coy
oteS and wildcats successfully, have
been assigned to the work of exter-
minating these destructive range ami
mails in national forests in eight west
ern states. These men, supplied with
traps, pOisons, guns and ammunition,
are going at their work in way which
is beginning to show its useful effect
and the forest officers believe that the
losses caused by the animals which
make stock their prey have been cut
down very materially.
The most effective way to destroy
wolves and coyotes is to locate their
dens, where, in addition to the old
animals, the pups may also be killed
In the Wind River division of the
Yellowstone national forest two forest
guards, acting as hunters, killed TWEEN
ty-one pups and two old wolves in two
months work this summer. In an
other case, where two hunters were
working separately, one found a den
and killed seven pups and their mother
and the other ranger killed five pups
in another den.
The Importance of killing these
thirty-six wolves in one national for
est is realized only when the extent
of damage which is done by these ami
mails in a year is known. Vernon
Bailey, who made an investigation of
the ravages of wolves last year for
the forest service, reported that in
certain part of New Mexico a moder-
ate estimate of the stock killed by
four wolves was yearling cow or
calf every three days, or approximate
ly 100 head of cattle year to each
wolf. Counting all as calves at the
low rate of $40 a head each wolf
would cost the ranchman $1,000 a
year This would make a saving of
$4,000 a year to the ranchmen in
the Yellowstone national forest, where
the hunters mentioned accomplished
such effective work.
The work of killing off wolves and
other predatory animals in the other
national forests is going on equally

The Farmers Union Of the State

The Farmers Union Of the State
is conducting a vigorous cam
paign for the use of cotton bag
ging for wrapping this years
crop Of cotton. The Union could
not undertake anything that
would be more practical or bene-
fetal to the cotton producer than
to inaugurate such a policy in the
handling of this great southern
staple. The great waste of cot
ton after it is baled is an item
that would not be allowed any
where except in the south where
we are disposed to overlook the
leaks. The past season demon
strated the fact that we are en-
tirely too loose in our methods
of handling the heecy staple.
Around our local compress and
the cotton warehouses the waste
was enormous and although the
cotton in most instances had pass
ed from the hands Of the farmer
who raised it there was a loss to
somebody on account of poor
wrapping which was found on a
large per cent Of the bales. The
use of good, heavy cotton goods
around the entire bale would serve
as a proper protection, while the
farmer, when he bought his bag
ging and paid a little more profit
on it, would only be taking his
money out of one pocket and put
ting about the same amount in
the other. The experiment is
worth trying.

The proposition made by Bishop
Galloway for the State to pay the
old Union Bank bonds will hardly
enter as an issue in the guberna-
torial race. The bonds in ques-
ton amount to So, 500. 90 and were
issued nearly seventy years ago.
The people of the State at that
time refused to pay the bonds on
account of them having been ille-
gally issued, and as they were
familiar with all the facts in con-
nection with the issuance of the
bonds we feel sure that they felt
like they were taking the proper
course in declining to pay them.
The trainers of the present con-
stitution of the State were op-
posed to the payment of these
bonds; the question was fully
gone into by the members and
after a full investigation Of the
matter the constitutional conven-
ton inserted a clause in the con-
stitution against the payment of
them. Bishop Galloway is not
alone in his position and is entire
" honest when he takes the posi-
ton that the bonds should be
paid. A majority of the people
of the State, however, are
against the payment of them and
it is hardly to be supposed that
at any time in the future a senti-
ment favorable to their payment
will prevail in the State.

If any doubt prevailed as to
who was the favorite candidate
for governor in this city, such
doubt must have been removed
from the mind of every person
present at the Walnut street the
atre last Tuesday night where
Judge Jeff Truly addressed the
people of Vicksburg in the inter-
est of his candidacy for the high
est office within the gift of the
people of this State. Judge Truly
was greeted by a large and en-
thusiastic audience, notwithstand-
ing the unfavorable weather con-
ditions. A man less distinguished
than Judge Truly could not have
attracted so large a crowd of
people on such a bad night, and
the attendance was a tribute to
the high regard that the people
Of this community have for this
very able man. He discussed the
equitable distribution of the pub
lie school fund and none but the
most highly prejudiced partisan
can say that this plank in Judge
Truly's platform should not de-
serve the support of every honest
citizen of this State who believes
that every white child in Missis-
sippi should have equal facilities
for procuring a common school
education. Judge Truly's posi-
ton on the question of immigra-
ton must have been a grear sur
prise to many people here, as it
was to us. Upon this great ques-
ton he has been grossly misrep-
resented by his opponents and
the public press. He is opposed
to artificially stimulated immi-
grafton, and says that every man
from every cline that come to
our shore with the intention of
making his home with us, ought
to be accorded a warm and hearty
welcome, but the atheistic scum
of Continental Europe and con-
victs who are thrust upon US by
the transportation companies for
the benefit of large land holders,
should be excluded. This is a
plank of Judge Truly's platform,
when thoroughly understood by
the people of Mississippi, ought
to win for him the governorshir
of the State. Judge Truly's
speech was indeed a great speech
and it places him in line with the
greatest of all the great Missis.

Hon. LIE Roy Taylor, of Lee
county, candidate for Trustee of
the State penitentiary, was in our
city Thursday and delivered a
short address at the court house
to a large audience of our people,
both ladies and gentlemen, and
made a splendid impression upon
the citizens of Carroll county.
Mr.. Taylor comes to us with a
good endorsement from the peo-
pie of the eastern and of the
northern district, and will get a
large vote in our county. He
served the State senate from
1900 to 1904, and made for him
self a splendid record as a legis-
lator. He also made a gallant
Confederate soldier when a mere
boy, having been twice wounded,
and has always been a splendid,
conservative citizen of his native
State. We recommend him as a
safe and competent man to vote
for. Carroll County Conserva-

"Unwritten Law" Turned Down
In Macon, Ga.

IN Macon, ga.
The "unwritten law" is not
recognized in Macon, Ga!
Recently in that city Dennis
Strong, a peaceable citizen of ac-
knowledged good reputation, be-
came aware that Henry D. Smith
had dishonored and deserted his
(Strong's) sister. There being
in Georgia, apparently, no law
by which the wronged girl could
have her grievous injuries re-
dressed, it being impossible to
punish in any way the perpetra-
tor, not even to mulct him in any
pecuniary damages, but enjoying
entire impunity and virtually up
held in his wickedness by the law,
there was no other manner in
which such an outrage could be
reached or resented save by a
personal encounter. There being
no other recourse, Strong adopt
ed that and shot and killed the
destroyer of his sister.
Strong was promptly arrested,
tried and convicted and sent to
the penitentiary for a term of
years. . The Macon Telegraph,
rejoicing that the slayer has been
punished and the law indicated,
says:
1.-The court and the jury have
served notice on w~homsoeyer
may be concerned that a citizen
cannot be shot down like a dog,
without a hearing, in the streets
of Macon with impunity. He can
not with safety take the law in
his own hands and constitute
himself judge, jury and execu-
toner upon his fellow mortal.
Again we say, it is well.
1.-The law Of the State is SIM
ply the expressed will of a ma
jority of it's people. If the major
ity of the people decree that the
seducer shall be punished with
death, then let the State embody
that will in it's statutes and every
man be put on notice."
1t is not to be believed that
what is described by the Tele-
graph to be the prevailing tore
and temper of the people of Ma
con towards the seducers and
traducers of women is the rule
and general disposition of the
men of the balance of the great
State of Georgia on the subject.
But if so, a law ought to be made
requiring that outrages upon the
weaker sex should be paid for at
some assessed money value. If
in that great State any ignorant
and innocent young female may
be criminally dealt with by any
villain who may so choose with
entire impunity so far as the law
goes, and that her natural pro.
tector, who may violently resent
the outrage, becomes by such
act a felon, then such civilization
is worse than savagery where
the natural right of such protec-
ton is fully recognized.
But of course public sentiment
in Macon, as described by the
Telegraph, must be a remarkable
exception, and is not found else
where in grand old Georgia. IN,
