where forty-seven Of the greatest speed

daredevil, death-defying struggle for
international supremacy. The list of

Kinds County Board Of Supervisors
Now Has the Matter Under
Consideration.

Daily News Special.
Jackson, Miss, July 6.-During the
session of the Kinds county board of
supervisors which convened here TO
day the question of establishing q
county agricultural high school will be
taken up and discussed at some length,
and one orJtwo agents of the United
States department of agriculture, Du-
reau of plant industry, will be on hand
to discuss several of the more import
ant features of 1t.
In view of the fact that the Mexican
boil weevil is rapidly approaching this
region, and with the possibility of his
actually invading this county within a
year, it is pointed out as dire neces-
sity that the people of the state ia
miliarize themselves with better meth
DDS of farming in order to minimize
the harm this pest may do in the cot
ton fields. Other insects almost as
harmful under certain conditions arc
under observation by the department
and with the farming population of this
state educated along these lines theil
ravages will be not so much a matter
of chance. and good crops can be made
in spite of the bugs.
While this is only a small portion o
are argument in favor of the agricul
tural high school, 1t is regarded a.
very important part. and is the on
thing on which Uncle Sans men ar
laying special stress at this time.

The Thomas entry for the Grand

it is the only American car entered,
but 1t is also the lowest powered car
in the race. There is little possibility,
