Jackson, September 1.-THE lumber
manufacturers of South Mississippi are
so busily engaged with preparations
to resume operations at their plants
that the regular semi-annual meeting
of the Mississippi Pine Association,
due to assemble in Gulfport today, was
postponed indefinitely.
News from the long leaf yellow pine
region during the past few days has
been of a very encouraging nature.
Among the big plants about to re-
sumo operations are the j. E. North
Lumber Company at Bond. and the
Conner Lumber company, located near
Seminary. Both of these concerns
own big timber tracts and have large
daily capacity.
Contracts will be awarded within a
few days for rebuilding the big plant
of the ]. ]. Newman Lumber COM
pany at Hattiesburg, one of the larg-
est in the South.
The market has a firmer tone at
present than at any time within the
past twelve months and marked in
crease in inquiries and orders is be-
ing shown.

Indians Long for PendletOn.

Three Indian women were in town
Saturday from their camp on Ditch
creek. says the Monument Enterprise.
Two Of them are said to be daugh-
ters Of Columbia Joe, and the third,
their sister-in-law. Maude, one of
Columbia Joe's daughters, seemed to
be unusually bright and spoke Eng
lish without a hitch, not stinting it
either. To one lady here in town
she complained about this being a
lonely country and expressed herself
as wishing to return to Pendleton
where she had friends and a sweet
heart. One Monument man of leis-
ure refused to carry a sack of flour
to her packhorse when re quested to
do so by the self-possessed Indian
maiden, who then wrapped some pa
per around the mealy sack and carried
it herself. When asking for a drink
of water, one man told her to get the
drinks at the saloon, but she scorn-
fully replied. 1--WE are not looking for

Recent Rains Help Wheat.

With the prediction of fair and
warmer weather, issued by the wealth
er bureau this morning, it looks as If
the rainy period were over, for the
present at least, says the Walla Walla
Statesman. Rain has quit falling in
the northwest and there Is every in
dication that the precipitation will be
discontinued for few days.
During the last five days, all Of
which have been more or less showery,
SO hundredths Of an inch Of rain fell,
bringing the total for the month up
to "a. or but .O2 behind normal for
the month at this time. There must be
.S5 more this month, however, to bring
the total up for the 80 days.
The rain was general through the
northwest and particularly good in the
Walla Walla valley. 1t did inestimable
good as the wheat is mostly in the
dough and the moisture and cool
weather aided It materially in filling.
Unless unexpected conditions happen,
the wheat crop is in good shape for
the rest of the summer.
