sippi, but one spring, when times
were dull and the river needed di-
version. it changed its channel and
transferred Blue Point over into
Arkansas. If the big river had
taken such a twist between Mis-
souri, and Illinois before the war,
it could have removed slaves from
one State to another and thus set
them free.-Exchange.
The big river this year has been
kept in its crooked but narrow path
and if brains and money and dirt
will hold it there, lit will cease play
ing more of its past pranks for
which it has been noted.-Green-

THE CHAMPIONS WON.
Dheated ibe AM.Stars 10 10 4 In 4
Good Cane Wednesday.

The Champions are still cham
pions.
For awhile it looked as though,
the All-Stars were going to run
away with the game, and, but for
one inning, the game was very
even one.
The Champions made the first
run i'll the second inning. Then
the All Stars evened up and in the
next two or three INNINGS made
four scores, holding the Cham
pions down. But along about the
7th inniug few hits and few
errors, punched, allowed the Cham
pions seven runs, and after that
the result of the game was never
in doubt.
Walter Sillers, jr., and Charles
Allen, the old reliable battery were
in the points for the Champions;
and M. K. Wilson and w. P.
Pharr held him up the positions
for the All-Stars. While none of
them were in mid-season form; still
they played very good ball, and for
the first of the season, it was very
good game. Charles Clark finish
ed the game in the box for Sillers,
and not a run was made off of him,
and Joe Gill took Wilson's place
on the slab near the close of the
game and pitched good ball.

THE NURSERIES OF THE
NEW-RICH.

Elizabeth Duer, awell-known re-
preventative of the old school of
aristocracy, writes of the million
aire women Of yesterday and today
in the February Woman's Home
Companion. In describing the
modern millionaires nursery she
says;
MRS. Pluto's nursery, under
the guidance of physicians and
trained nurses. is brought to the
highest standard of modern sani-
itation. No black Nanny or Irish
Mamma clasp her babies in fond but
injudicious embrace! Perish the
thought! The infars. millionairs
lie on their little backs in comfort
able beds, or, at mealtime, on the
laps of white-capped young ladies
f.om a training school, who ad-
minister DR.. H-'s formula
through the medium of a David
son bottle, and know by weighing
machine how the baby Plutos
thrive. When the little Plutocrats
emerge from the nursery their de-
velopment is carried On with cor
responding regard to the last edicts
in scientific and hyginic pedagogy.
Oh! lonely little sheltered children
of the rich-are you any happier
any healthier-than your great
grandparents who went to danes
schools at four years old,
and found at that tender age place
in the great commonwealth we call
the world?' l am sure l cannot
answer my own question, there is
a new race in the making.
when the time for more ad-
vanced education comes, Mrs. lu-
to has definite goal-her child is
to hold its own among its peers at
home or abroad. 1t is taught to
prattle French and German as read
ily as English; its manners are
carefully found, its tones of voice

indoor grace are used to perfect its
body; everything that money and
knowledge can provide is lavished
upon its intellectual and mora
growth. 1t ought to be an idea
human being; but is any system
perfect? Are the children OF ths

FERTILIZER EXPERIMENTS
The YaZoO.Delta Station
Report.

Greenville, Miss. Feb. 23rd.
Mr.. Walter Clark, President, Mis-
sissippi Division, Southern Cot
ton Association, Clarksdale,
Miss.
Dear Sir:-Replying to yours of
this date requesting results of tertil-
izer experiments at the Delta Sta
ton during the past year, will say
that the land used in this test was
the we'll drained sandy loan so
common to the Delta. This land
has been in cotton, so far as I can
learn, for thirty years or more.
Nitrogen, phosphoric acid and
potash were used alone and in diff
ferent combinations and in differ
ent quantities. To state the re-
suits briefly, neither the phosphor-
ic nor the potash increased the yield
Of cotton.
Nitrogen. both in the form of
cotton seed meal and dried blood
made a material increase in the
Weld. Four hundred pounds of
cotton seed meal per acre made an
increase of 55Olb of seed cotton
over the adjacent plot where no
fertilizer was used. In other
words, by the use of $500 worth
of fertilizer an increase of $50. So
per acre was made. valuing the
lint at 10 cents per pound and the
seed at $12. 90 per ton.
Our results last year indicate
that this character of Delta soil is
we'll supplied with the mineral ele-
ments but lacks nitrogen. A crop
of cow peas, red clover or alfalfa
would supply all the fertilizer need
ed and all of these grow here most
luxuriously.
For lands that have not grown
an leguminous crop, cotton seed
meal or cotton seed will be suffi-
cient. When seed selling for that
$12.0 per ton it will pay you to
use the seed.
The above applies to the light
lands. Our experience last year
with commercial fertilizers on buck
shot soil was negative. Neither
element nor any combination of
the three made any increase i'll the
crop: however there were some
unfavorable condisions connected
with the trial on the black lands.
This experiment will be very care
fully repeated this year.
Twill add that the yield OF
light lint cotton on the station was
24,953 pounds on So acres. which
is satisfactory considering the los:
from the storms and the unimprov'
ed state of the land.
The Station has the following
forage crops growing satisfactorily
now: Alfalfa, red clover, wheat,
oats, barley and rye and also three
acres of Dwarf Essex Rape which
has been grazed by so head OF hog:
and pigs since Nov. 1st and which
has promises to carry them unit
red clover and wheat are ready II
March. will be very glad te
have farmers visit this station and
see what is being done,
Yours truly,
J. w. FOX.

hardly upon the incorrigable tribes.
Almost everywhere the Indians have
been urged into self reliance so gent
ly and trained for it so carefully that
many of them have became indepen-
dent citizens almost without real;
ing how it happened. Among the
tribes formerly most difficult there
has been far less trouble under the
policy than under the old.
These Utes appear to have been
treated with great consideration.
They have been fed and cared for
and paid %annuities from their own
resources and from government ap-
preparations and have received the
same training and encouragement for
self support as other tribes. But
they neglect the opportunity to work
for high wages and insist upon be-
ing fed and supported in idleness.
OF cours this must come to an
end some time and the Indian bureau
seems to have decided that it is as
good a time as any. The ultimatum
has gone out that If the Indians will
not work they shall not be fed and
enough troops have been moved
quietly to the neighborhood to pre-
vent the old-fashioned protest Of an
outbreak.
The incident is interesting chiefly
as an exception to the general rule
of acceptance by the Indians of the
new status of individual indepen-
dence.-Minneapolis Tribune.

The Turning of the Tide.

White Tuesday may be the desfg-
nation which November 5 Will carry
in the annals of the financial scare
of 1908. Owing to election Tues
day was a holiday in New York, and
the exchanges were all closed. But
IN through the bay came gladder It'd
|ings than any which the stock board
has furnished in recent years. The
Crown Princess Cecile steamed into
the lharbor yesterday with $4,000
600 in gold. Other boats are speed
ing in our direction with large sums
also. When, two or three days hence
the Lusitania arrives with $4,000
600, the rates for money will drop
to near the normal rate. By Satur-
day night of this week about $780,
100000 will have arrived in New
York out of the $50, 100000 which
has been engaged along to the pres
emit date, and by that time the ag-
Sregate gold engagements for us will
probably be above $40, OOO, 900.
Thus, yesterday was a great day
in the history of the present FURRY.
Metaphorically the New York Bank
erS gave a more uproarous welcome
to the German liner which carried i'm
its store of the yellow metal than
E%ngland's Plymouth ever gave to
brakes treasure ships laden with the
spoils of his raids on Spanish gal
Icons. Cecile will write her name in
gold letters all over the big chamber
of the New York Stock Exchange
this morning. AS head OF the PRO-
- y Il money ships which are car
rying in a stream of wealth beyond
the dreams of Midas there will be
magic in the name CT Cecile in Am
erica's financial center today.
Regardless altogether Of the re-
suit of the local elections, yesterday
vas @ day of joy for New York
bankers. They now see daylight just
ahead Of them, or think they do.
From present indications, the
worst df the money scare has passed,
Stocks will probably rise today, al
though the arrival of the gold ships
was %foreseen, and their effect to
some extent, was discounted. 1t
looks now as if the tide was turned
permanently, and that the situation
would improve from this time on
ward. That unexampled deficit in
the reserves of the New York Asso-
ciated banks last Saturday will be
reduced to very low figures during
the week. Next week money ought
to begin to become nor plentiful in
trade channels all over the United
States, for when the scare leaves New
York the whole country will feel that
the clouds have rolled by.-Globe
Democrat.
