is at the rate OF little over eleven

more beans than any other state OK.

partly taken the place Of wheat as a

G. Corbett for the Department OF
Agriculture remarks, It is the beams
peculiar distinction to provide food
for both man and soil. That makes it
Invaluable in a scheme Of crop rota-
ton.
To the average American, beans
mean string or snap beans, plucked
when green from the small garden
or canned in their green state. Thus
produced they yield largely, as much
as 200 bushels to the acre, the price
ranging from 81 to IS a bushel, &C.
oording TO the season and nearness to
market. Yet the bean means some
thing more. Certain varieties, like
the cowpea, are valuable for grain,
for hay, as good as alfalfa, and for
green manuring unsurpassed. The
kidney, the marrow bean and the pea
are prime, foods in their dry state.
Like other Of the ancient crops OF
mankind, the bean requires more hand
labor than the more recent food
staples. In the advance Of farm
science. however, satisfactory harvest
ers and thrashers have been devised.
AS an item Of diet in this country
beans will figure more as meat figures
less. and the annual production is
sure to be much enlarged.-Roehes-

LAUDERDALE COURT IDLE

Meridian, Miss, July S.-J. A. Gibson acting president in the absence of Pres ident s. A. Neville of the Board of Trade this morning gave out the following signed card in denial of the charge made by Governor Vardaman that President Neville had treated him unfairly on the occasion of the Fourth of July joint de- bate between the Governor and Congress man Williams:
 President Sam Neville of the Board of Trade is in Blue Ridge Springs, Va, and will leave there for New York We'd nesday. He has ben communicated with and will no doubt make proper answer to Governor Vardaman's charges as pub lished in the cosmopolitan papers on the 7th inst.
 ''In MT. Neville's absence and in justice to him and being the vice president of the Board of Trade, l deny emphatically that any preference was shown to either MT. Williams or MT. Vardaman. It was the genuine pleasure of the Board of Trade of Meridian to entertain both of these honorable gentlemen and so far as
 
 with the intention of fair and square deal. U. A. GIBSON, Acting President Meridian Board of Trade and Cotton Exchange"
 The charge of Governor Vardaman has created no end of comment in Meridian and the consensus of opinion is that the Governors action was entirely uncalled 
 Neville is touring the east, was wired, and his friends say he will satisfy the public that the Governors charge is with out the slightest rational foundation. MT. Nevilles statement is awaited in Merl- dian with the greatest possible interest.
 The present term of the Lauderdale county criminal court has been a record breaker in so far as 1t has been without work. The court has ben merely waiting for the grand jury to produce the work, and to date very little results have fol- lowed.

family like Mr.. Harriman's and
who could win and hold, year
in and J ear out, the esteem and
regard of an entire community
should be- so viciously attacked
and abused, is more than a
shame-It is a reproach upon the
American sense of decency and
fairness.
It is not necessary for this
newspaper, or any other to come
to the defense of Mr.. Hartman,
but it is our privilege to demur
to the utterly reckless and alb
surd charges that emanate from
irresponsible sources. It is due
Mr.. Hartman that he be given
a square deal. The citizens of
Orange county are his friends
They appreciate his, worth and
give him full credit for his integ-
rity of purpose and his earnest
desire to be of real service to the
county of his choice.
We realize what the withdraw
al of his interest would mean to
Orange County, and we trust
that the day will never come
when he will be disheartened by
any lack of appreciation
The muck-rakers" should find
some other mark at which to
hurl their shafts of malice. If
all that there are of them were
piled together in one heap, they
would compare in point of real
usefulness to Mr.. Hartman
about as an ant hill in the desert
compares to Mount Olympus.

Six things a boy should know:
First, that a quiet voice, courtesy
and kind acts are essential to a
gentleman; second roughness,
clustering and foolhardiness are
not manliness; third, that mus
cular strength is not health;
fourth, that a brain crammed
with facts is not necessarily a
wise one; fifth, that the labor
impossible to the boy of fourteen
will be easy to the man of twenty;
sixth. that the best capital for
boy is not money, but a love of
work, simple tastes and a heart
loyal to his friends and his Cod
PhillipSburg Post.
