Mother! you have deprived me OF
every force save that of animal mag
netism. I can put my hand on the

little one struggling alone. The

children naturally like system and
order. and if may presume to sug>
gest an antidote for evil tendencies,
try this one. Give each child some
task to perform, and be there to en-
courage and see to its well-doing
II beg of you your sympathy, your
encouragement and support to en-
able the public school to do all in its
power for your children, directly
aiding the girls and boys; indirectly
aiding grand old Greenville.
"These boys and girls are here to-
| day, having met the necessary re-
| quirements for promotion to the
high school. I commit them to
your care, Mr.. Bass, with feelings
of regret that they are to leave us;
but with pride and hope for their
| future"
Superintendent Bass in a short
| talk complimented Miss Darling and
! her address very highly, but that he
regretted the fact that every patron
of the public school was not present
| to hear it. He then addressed the
| class on its promotion and future
| work. giving each member, inspira-
ton for higher ideals
At the close he presented the
students with their certificates.
! The parents were called upon and
made talks concerning our schools
and the work being accomplished by
them.
Rev. w. A. Borum addressed the
| the class on the subject of gradu-
alton, his talk being in the form OF
a plea to every student to make a
| firm resolution to finish the course
and to educate themselves to the
| highest possible degree.
Another song closed the exercises
of what is considered one of the best
and most successful years in the his
tory of our schools.
Don't forget the graduating exer-
cises Monday night at $3.50, at the
Grand Opera House. All are cordial
| ly invited to be present.

THE MAN FOR
GOVERNOR

Hon E. N. Thomas, Washington
county's' candidate for governor,
stands up for the Delta and its PEG
pie on every stump. He is making
a race, clean and free from person
alities, and discussing before the peo
pie only the honest issues that con-
Germ the welfare of our State.
E. n Thomas is a clean man both
IN his home and public life and the
people know it, and when the rising
dissentions among other candidates
reach the disgusting point, they will
flock by thousands to the Thongs
co1ors.

But the voters Of Mississippi will

SENATORIAL
POLITICS

1t has been stated that United
States Senator McLaurin intends
to take the stump actively in the in
terest of the candidacy of Hon John
Sharp Williams for the Money sue
cession in the Senate as against Gov.
Vardaman
To be sure he has a perfect right
to do this, but we doubt very much

this county in winning away from
Vardaman any votes, or indeed, les

would endanger them in either city

contended against the more friends

all public questions appear to be the
popular ones. and the more they are
discussed and mootcd the more i'm
pregnabIe they. seem to make him.
We do not think Senator HcLaur-

well known; certainly not as much

PETROL LEuM EMULSION.

New and Promising Fall Treatment
For San Jose Scale.
Those who have to combat the San
Jose scale will be interested in know
ing that the Connecticut experiment
station at Storrs has worked out new
formula which is very promising. 1T
can.-be applied. in the fall, when the
scale Is most susceptible to injury. and
Is easily applied and prepared. 1t has
NO Ill effect on the fesh nor does 1t
corrode spraying machinery.
This new remedy goes by the name
of petroleum emulsion. 1t is, made as
follows: Use two quarts of carbolic
acid, two and a half quarts of fish oil
and one pound of caustic potash. This
is brought to tempera ture of 800 de-
grees. The next step is to add three
and half quarts of kerosene and five
and half quarts of water. This mix
ture is a stock solution, or, as Pro
fessor Jarvis explained, IAN emulsi-
fer" Then for the next step eight
parts of this emulsifier is taken, one
part Of water, eighteen parts Of crude
petroleum and four parts Of rosin oil.
Dilute the Mixture.
To spray, dilute-thi mixture with
fifteen parts of water. The formula
sounds. q little complicated, but is not
Lin actual practice. Stock solutions are
made. tand it is little. bother to have
the mixture readyafor application. 1t
stays In suspension for days at time,
fand while an; agitator infsprayabarrel
is not necessary it is a little better to
use SUCH iArsenatee Of lead t-be

special danger in making the mixture.

Small Hsads, Properly Stored, Cos.
tinues to Develop.
One Of the simplest ways Of keeping
cabbage is to. store in an orchard or
some sheltered place. often alongside
a fence which has been made tight by
q liberal use of straw. The cabbag ges
are stored with their stems. on and
are: placed head down and dsasaelose to-
gether as possible. Two or three tiers
are often made, the heads of the sec
ond tier being placed between stems
of the lower, and so on the piles being
made of any width and length desired.
The whole is covered with leavaS,, salt
grass hay or straw and a little soil,
rails, brush or litter. Small unsala-
Bile heads when stored In. this way in
November will continue to develop dur
ing winter and frequently sell as well
as any in February.
f Packing In Burrows.
Small quantities may be. stored by
blowing out two or three burrows ten
or twelve inches deep ON well drain
ed site. and, placing the heads with
their stems up as close together az
possible. Some prefer to lay them
but one or two thick. while others win
pile them up two to two and half
: feet high; bringing 2them@to point.
The. pile is then covered with straw,
salt grass hay or thin layer Of straw
and them several inches Of soil. Hhey
are stored before freezing, and when
the soil covering them is frozen It
may be covered, with strawy manure
or yanys other litter to keep the ssh
frozen until the eabbages are needed

New Variety of Spinach.

A new variety Of spinach which has
never been listed In any of the Amer
ican catalogues is being grown at VAL
verde, near Denver, which Is creating
very favorable comment on the Denver
market. The seed was imported from
Prussia, and for the lack Of better
name it is called German spinach. Its
chief advantage lies in the thickness
and juiciness of the stems, which pre-
vent the rapid whiting of the plants
when placed on the market and also
add to its bulk when prepared for
the table.-Denver Field and Farm.

Treatment For the Removal of Black

Treatment For the Removal of eisek-
heads-Helpful Hints.
Take q. bath all over, every day,
scrubbing the whole body with
coarse washcloth or bath mitten and
a good soap, rinsing thoroughly and
rubbing hard for the drying. This
starts the blood circulating and
helps to clear the skin.
Every night take a big basin of
warm water and two soft cloths,
folded; wet them and lay first one
and then the other. on thetface until
the skin is soft and pink. This will
take half an hour at first;. then press
out as. many of the blackheads as
possible where they come easily
Have spoonful of half alcohol, half
water, and touch each pore with a
drop as its contents are pressed out,
but not before. This helps to con-
tract it. After this is done, with
the palms of the hands rub a good
lather- into the face, well, rinse in
two or three clean warm waters and
then in cold, with a dash of toilet
vinegar in it. Wipe the face dry
and rub in lot of cold cream. In
the morning wash the face in cold
water without soap and rub in more

Saving the Glover.

1t is failing of the American farm
er when a blade of grass or stem Of
clover makes a strong showing to try
to turn it into beef. mutton or pork.
In this effort to utilize it he entirely
forgets that the plant may need a lit
tie winter protection. He does not
understand how little is often sufficient
to save the plant from frost destruc-
ton. Where the clover is not pastured
It Is often allowed to perfect its seed,
which is as fatal to the crop next year
as the winter freezing. Clipping would
save the crop where it is SO forward
as to bloom and perfect seed.-Rural
