McComb City is fighting any feel
ing that might be akin to the blues
on account of unfavorable crop con-
ditions, and announces that build
ings to the amount of 100000 are
to be commenced during the present

patriotic citizens pushing all the time
and more especially in the face Of
circumstances that might discourage
those who are inclined to be timid.
McComb is good city and affords
the market for an immense amount
of farm and garden products, the

farmers in Pike county, and it still

The Importance of raising an abun-
dance of corn for all purposes has
been preached with increasing force
for years, and the greater number OF
Mississippi planters are doing that
very thing, but it appears that the
necessity for this is greater this year
than ever before. 1t looks as If
those who buy corn next winter and
spring will be compelled to pay an
exhorbitant price, not less than one
dollar per bushel if that reasonable.
The reasons given tor this are that
wheat is short something like 100,-
100000 bushels and has jumped to
more than one dollar per bushel and
the price of -four will call for q
larger consumption OF corn for
bread. Then, the season for corn in
the northwest is opening up badly.
being unpropitious in every way, and
with the narrow margin existing be-
tween planting time and the frost
in the fall, the prospects for a large
crop in the corn belt is not at all In
viting. The demand for export is
growing year by year and a consid-
cradle increase is required for that
alone. So it would seem that Is es-
pecially stands Mississippians in hand
to be sure Of enough corn at home to
care for their farms. The prospect
for an abnormally high price for cot
ton may be as good as reported, but
if the corn is not made at home,
twelve cent cotton crop would be
largely decreased in value if we have
to pay a dollar for the corn necessary
tc run the farms.

Considerable activity by the parties
interested In the new railroad from
Jackson up the Pearl river valley
has been shown recently, and those to
be benefited by the move are hopeful
that work will begin soon on its ac-
tual construction. This line will pen
citrate the largest section of the state
that is without a railroad and develop
a country that is rich both in timber
and farming lands. The section TO
be traversed is already thickly popu-
lated, some of the best communities
in the South being included, but they
are of course anxious for quicker
communications with the outside
world and means of getting to ant.
from market The prospect for this
dream to be realized seems to be ex-
cellent at this time.
Crop conditions as reported from
Louisiana and Texas are if anything,
worse than in Mississippi The ex-
cessive rains have come to those
states as well and on top of this the
boil weevil began to come out months
ago and are waiting in millions to
attack the first square To form. It
seems that the farmers in those states
face conditions far worse than in
Mississippi, and that the prospects
for even an average crop are very
slim indeed While a cotton crop is
extremely difficult to estimate, the
writer believes that nothing can hap
pen that could bring this years crop
to an unusually high figure, and that
the planter should easily secure twelve
cents or more, for what is produced

The difficulty on the main line is
caused by packed danges and not keep
ing the snow danged out from between
the rails so that engines, especially in
the cuts, can get down steel to steel

Another thing, passenger trains are
held at the terminal and intermediate
coal docks to clean fires, blow up
steam, coal up and tinder engines in
the hurry up fashion, when such
work ought to be done off the main
line, and trains kept moving. Under
good principles of government it used
to be considered disgraceful to toler-
ate such work on the main line, even
with freight trains.
