a movement has been put on foot
among the farmers in that section OF
southwest mississippi infested by
the Mexican boil wee7il to point Il

and devote the major portion of till

The movement has the backing Of
the Farmers Union and is COM
meuded by the special agents Of the
United States department of agrfcul-
ture, who are employed in that sec

one Of the measures for the sup
