About Pecan Culture

We continually read in the newspa-
pers OF phenomenal Yields from pecan
orchards. The profits from these
orchards are almost fabulous and PEI
can orchards undoubtedly NAY the
most handsome dividends of anything
known in horticulture. Pecans are
most valuable of commercial nuts and
the supply can never equal'the demand
The trees grow In any Southern soil
and require but little attention. ANY,
one wishing to improve his property
should write the Southern Nut Nurse
ry co. of Lafayette, Louisiana, for
their free catalogue about pecan cnl'
tare, This concern owns and operates
the largest pecan nursery in tnt
world aa1 mates a,5Gsineas Of selling
pecan trees.

Arkansas Rice Planters Profit b
Welsh Planters Experience.

Mr.. J. L. Tindel, of Stuttgart, Ar
kansas, who has been in Welsh and
vicinity for several DAYS past, depart
ed for his home Saturday, February ;
10Th. Mr.. Tindel is a very pleasant
gentleman to meet, and is an expert
machinist.
He came down here to investigate |
the various methods employed by the !
rice planters here to overcome the
trouble that comes from the sink. /
ing of their wells, for he says, the
planters in Arkansas are having a
similar experience to that which the
planters here formerly bad before
they began using the Monger Self.
Contained Pump Attachment After
thorough investigation OF the var.
ious devices used by the planters here
for overcoming the above difficulties,
Mr.. Tindel decided that there was
nothing on the market that would
compare with the Monger Seif'Con'
tanned Pump Attachment. Before
leaving he made arrangements with
Mr.. Monger to handle the Monger
Attachment in the rice district OF Ar
kansas, and in order to avoid any
delays in the beginning, he arranged
to have shipment of the Monger At
tachments by express. lie says that
this attachment will be the salvation
of the rice planters OF Arkansas, and
he expects it to greatly increase the
acreage bv lessening the expense Incl
dent to flooding rice.
The Monger equipment seems to be
the greatest boon to the rice planters
of auy similar device that has been
invented, and it is to be hoped that
Mr.. Tindel will meet with the same
gratifying success with it that the
planters in this section have expert
enced. The manufacturing OF the
Moneer Attachment is being rushed
here to the utmost, and yet the output
hardly equals the demand.
Welsh is proud OF the genius OF tht
inventor of this attachment and con-
6dently expects that Mr.. Monger vii
eventually establish a large plan
here for the manufacture OF his pro
} duct In quantities sufficient to suppl!
the ever increasing demand for them

pENROSE PRESS MUELLER.
Would Empower Postmaster General
to Exclude ANY Paper.

The Philadelphia North American
says: Feb. Ex-senator Penrose has
i,urod uced bill to provide for an
absoluteIpress censorship, in the hands
OF the postmaster general.
The bill provides: That section So
% Of the revised statutes, be, and the
same is hereby amended by adding:
sand when any issue of any periodi-
cal has been declared non-mailable by
The postofiice department, the periodl'
cal may be excluded from second
class mail privileges ct the discretion
Of the postmaster general"
The section of the revised statutes
amended by the bill, relates TO OBJ
scene books, pamphlets, papers or
other matter, But the amendment is
not confined to such publications; II
covers all publications without refer
ence to whether they contain obscene
or indecent matter. 1t gives the post
master general arbitrary power over
The public press Of the United States
Penrose will say that his purpose
was merely to give the postmaster
general power to exclude from tint
mails viscious publications. This
power, however, the postmaster gener
al already has, so that The Penros'
proposition must have deeper pur
pose.
It can be seen that with such post
master general as would be selected
by the corporations and their SENATOR
II they obtain control Of the govern
ment, law OF this character could d.
used to suppress or harrass newspa
pers which opposed their schemes.

4 Sc, 100000 stock Sale.

sale of live stock and farming imple'
nents that has ever been held in this
section Of the state, occurred at the
ranch on the 9th of Febru-
arv, when $4,000 worth Of property !
was disposed OF at prices that in |
many Instances, seemed alWost pro: /
high.
The day was an ideal one, and the
largest crowd ever seen at an auction
sale In this part of the state, assem-
i oieaa. The mos! Of them were there
for the purpose Ct buying or trying to
buy something. There were buyers
there from Welsh, Iowa, Roanoke,
Jennings, Mermentau, Crowley and
sundry other points. That the auc-
tioneer, Mr.. Richhart, worked hard,
goes without saving; it is habit he
has. The bidding was snappy from
the start, and after being refreshed by
a generous lunch, buyers forgot their
limit and bid to win regardless of
costs. Nor did the number of head
in q bunch deter bidders, one man bid.
ding off forty head at one time. Mules
sold at splendid prices, ranging as
high as 1926 span. The entire sale
lacked but $40 of reaching the ST., 600
mark, which was 81 600 more than Mr..
McBurney had expected it to amount
to.
We might mention some OF the
things that contributed to the success
of the sale: An ideal day with fair
weather, had something to do with It,,
good line of stock andIan auctioneer
who worked for the success OF the
sale. were potent factors, but what we
regard as the most potent factor that
contributed toward making this sale a
record breaker, was the thorough and
unstinted manner IN which it was ad
vertised.
! While it has been the custom hereto
fore for parties having sale, to ust
about LOCO posters, Mr.. McBurae!
used between 5000 and 1900 larg
bills to advertise his sale. Nor di'
he stop at this, but advertised to
same thoroughly in the Journal ant
also in the papers of the nearby towns
as we'll as in one Of the leading New
Orleans dailies. The printers in|
for this sale cost the owner somewher
10 the neighborhood of $45, but whe
it is considered that according to Mr.
McBurnev's own statement, the re
ceipts of the sale we're $1,000 NOR
than he had expected, it will be see
that printers ink in this instance,
!, is always the case, was good invest
Iment.
] There is another interesting aspec
to be considered in regard to this sale
shat is. that a man who began farm
] ing here on small scale some seve
! years ago, can make sale and Sc
loft 81, 900 worth of surplus stock an
still have sufficient to continue opel
d ating his large plantation withoutsan

Mr.. Lewis an Easy Winner.

The indications all point to the
overwhelming return of Congress
man Lewis to the House of Repre-
sentatives for another and last
term.
Advices from all over the dis
trict indicate that the great mass
of the people are well satisfied
with the work done by Mr.. Lewis,
feel that it is wise and proper 10
return him for another two years
IN Congress, and that the vote
that will be given him in the pri-
mary will be the largest he has
ever received.
AS far us can be learned absO-
Iutcly no enthusiasm has been
awakened for Mr.. Hughes in this
campaign. The outlook is that his
vote will be very much below
what it was in his last campaign.
While he is doing his best in the
handshakiDg way to secure votes
the tide seems to have set in very
strongly against him From vari
Gus parts of the district comes
word that men who supported Mr..
Hughes two years ago are opposed
to him now, and believe that Mr..
Lewis should have another term
to round up his work at Washing
ton.
1t is a safe prediction that the
vote of Mr.. Hughes will be much
smaller than when he ran before,
and that Mr.. Lewis will go back
to Congress with a popular en-
dorsement that will testify to the
fact that the voters of the Third
District have been satisfied with
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1908-04-23
