Remember that the rate on corn,
and hay in carload lots, grown in Mis-
sissippi and shipped from any one sta
ton in the state to any other station
cannot exceed Is cents per hundred
pounds. State that your corn and hay
is native grown and the road cannot
legally charge more. The rate on
native grown molasses in any guam
tity is % cents per hundred, sweet
potatoes in any quantity 25 cents per
hundred and field peas in any guam
tity 18 cents per hundred. 1t is un-
derstood that each road handling 4
shipment has the right to charge %
cents, hence, ship in lots that if go
ing over two roads the amount would
be 80 cents or more, three roads, 70
cents or more. This is done to en-
courage the raising Of these articles at
home for supplying the demand at
any point in the state. 1t is done 70
encourage the diversiilcation of crops
and is of the greatest Importance to
the people of Mississippi. Get these
matters straight and demand of the
road at shipping point the rate as here
published after complying with the
condition outlined.

The proposed law for the super
vision and inspection of commercial
feed stuffs does not mean that the
people of Mississippi will have to
pay more for what they buy. They
are already paying the price without
the protection such law would give.
Other states around us have the in
spection and condemned feeds from
those states are dumped into Missis-
sippi. 1t means that feeds must come
up to the guarantee printed upon the
label and would be worth thousands
TO the people in better feed and at
the same time place, several thousand
dollars of hard cash in the state trea-
sury each year. 1t would be the same
protection to users of feed stuffs that
the present system of inspection and
tagging is to the users of fertilizers.

Cat Island, off Gulfport, in Mis-

If there ever was anything to make
the PEBBLE sore and inclined to be
hard on the corporation if they could
get the power, it is their disregard
of the laws and order for their super
vision. The same old matter of rates
on Mississippi grown products Is the
cause of this article. Last week some
space was devoted to the duty Of in
forming the public as to the rates on
hay, corn, sweet potatoes, molasses
and field peas from any station in the
state to any other station. These
rates were ordered by the railroad
commission and agreed to by the rail
roads almost year ago and still they
are not in effect.
The matter was again brought to
the attention of the writer this week
by a letter from j. B. Bridge, Of
Buckatunna, who desired to ship some
Mississippi grown molasses to Tupelo
and the rate charged him was 48 cents
per hundred instead of % cents as
ordered by the commission. The agent
at Buckatunna had never heard Of the
rate ordered by the commission and
charged Mr.. Bridge more than twice
the rate as it should have been. What
was Mr. Bridge to do in the matter7
His customer wanted the syrup and
there was no way of getting it to him
except to pay the rate demanded. But
some is ready to say that the amount
will be refunded him. That may be
so and it may not. The writer at
tempted to get refund on this same
rate for Mr.. Mercier of Centerville
some months ago and if the refund
has ever been made Mr.. Bercier has
not said so. Yes, it may be refunded,
but too late to be of service to the
present generation.
The people of Mississippi are as
fair as can me found in the world
and only ask for The corporations the
same treatment they would expect for
an individual, and they have right
to expect that. Here are rates that
have been in force for nearly year
and still the people are being charged
twice what they should be and have
to pay it without recourse. They can't
afford to pay high-priced lawyers and
go 10 the troublsland expense of court
proceedings--to collect overcharges
that in each individual instance may
be small, but in the aggregate it
amounts to thousands to the railroads
in the course Of year.

Carr's Trade Letter

Natural dulness which always pre-
ceeds the holiday season has left the
wheat trade for a few days almost
entirely in the hands of the local
trade, AS 80 pT cent. of the trade
never raised or owned IA carload of
wheat In their lives, they naturally
take to the selling side of other peo-
pies property when there Is period
of dulness which makes 1t reasonably
safe to do so. The reaction from the
best advance OF a fortnight ago IL
less than two cents. In bringing this
about neadly all the small holders
have sold out and the more bear
sh element in the professional trade
Is sold short. 1t Is common thing
for market to drag along In dis
couraged way before the holidays

Year broaden out and show decided
strength and activity. We note tna'

secret of this Is an uneasy feeling

The Hit Of the Season.

shipments of wheat for the week
about 100000 bushels less than for
1.-THE corresponding week last year
This means th:lt Argentina, Russia
and other countries. ,ous competitors
in supplying Europe with bread
jstuffs, are furnishing much below the
average supplies and this in time
will force Europe into larger pur-
chases of American wacat. Minneap-
oplls and Duluth had 1000 cars less
receipts than for the same week last
year. Wheat stocks at Minneapolis
increased rnearly 100000 bushels for
the week. yet THAT market has to-
Ital of but 3,79b 900 bushels. January
1st to July LIST will see decreasing
stocks where they have been increas-
ing the last~sly months Any acct
dent TO the Argentine harvests. which
are now in progress. will be that
much in favo- of the American
farmer and in favor OF the people
who buy May wheat now.
We get alvices from many scr-
tions west that all railroads are un-
liable to supply the cars for the corn
which Is loaded TO move. We feel
that when the great rush of mcr-
chandise and ether freight for the
holiday season is out of the way
that better facilities will be furnished
corn shippers to get thcir property
TO market. We cannot emphasize the
point too strongly tnat the farmer
with surplus ccrn to sell shall de
mand OF his local agent ears neccs-
sary to ship the same. that he shall
load and ship didect on his own
account as promptly as possible.
Farmer shippers should know railroad
Officials have adopted a rule that ordr
ers for ears when not flied shall b.
repeated from day to day until they
are furnished. The farmer who Is
not awake TO the advantage OF mar
keting the new corn before II goes
through a long period of shrinkaga
In weight and before the whole coun.
try gets into the shipping notion
will overlook the best money pos.
sibilities of the year. Those who
undertake to market corn 80 or &C
days from now may have to do SO
at a lower price level. Present ship.
pers will get the best that there is in
the cash market and later can buy
( May corn on the decline.
All western markets had 5000. O0(
bushels oats receipts this weel
against 4,5c0so0O bushels last year
Oats prices show decided stiffness il
the face of the larger crop figures

believe that after Weakening a lit,
with the heaviness in corn. there viii
be enough fresh buying force to star
