out plans regarding the State land and
take up questions regarding general
State forestry. The State owns 700,-
900 acres of forest land, and its for
est interest are second only to those
of agriculture.
During the fall of 1907 the Forest
Service co-operated with the geOlogi-
cal survey of Mississippi in AN eXami-
nation of cut-over longleaf pine lands.
These lands are, with few exceptions.
in wretched condition because of re-
curing fires. Since they will not be
needed for agriculture for many years,
they should in the meantime be re-
producing pine 10 prolcng an industry
that means much 10 the State. In
1906 Mississippi ranked third in yell
low pine cut. This business, with It's
attendant market for farm and other
products, will soon be lost without fl c
prevention.
"As a result of cooperative forest
studies in the Ozark region Of south
ern Missouri and western Arkansas,
between the State of Missouri and lum-
Der companies on the one hand and
the Forest Service on the other, one
large lumber company which controls
in the aggregate four billion feet of
standing timber has begun the appli-
cation of forest management to lis mold
ings.
Through cooperation between the
State of Kentucky and the Forest Ser
vice, study waas made of the present
timber supply of the eastern part of
Kentucky the rate of consumption, and
other facts which would be of value
in formulating a State forest policy.
Under the Louisiana forest law
police jurors of the parishes (similar

States) are fire wardens. A campaign
of education is being conducted to EN-
phasize the necessity of preserving tn
forests"

The Best Pride.
r ORD GRANARD one afternoon

Ord GRANARD one afternoon during
l. the Newport tennis TOURNAMENTS last
month talked most entertainingly to
group of ladies about ancestral pride.
Ancestral pride is an excellent thing"
he said. but there are better things. We
have long felt in Great Britain that there
are better things. l heard the sentiment
rather neatly expressed last season by
duchess.
Hers is a great family. but she was
talking to young marquis whose family
is incomparably greater. He Is a rather
worthless. lazy. dissipated young marquis.
and he boosted to the duchess about his
people.
Il am very proud of my ancestry. you
know he ended.
Yes said the duchess. and you have
cause 10 be; but 1 wonder how your an
cestry would feel about you?

After the Cattle Tick.

Reports from North Mississippi
state that the members of the Mis-
sissippi Live Stock Sanitary Board
have been making satisfactory pro-
gress during the past week with
their campaign for the eradication
of the cattle tick. In all counties
visited the farmers have promised
active cooperation and support,
and the work of the board will be
well under way during the coming
summer.
A mass meeting was held at Holly
Springs to-day for discussion of
the subject, and all members of the
board were in attendance. The
plan of the board is to carry on the
work of determination in the north
ern counties during the present
year, gradually moving southwark,
until the tick is exterminated in all
parts of the State, and thus insure
the raising of the quarantine
against Mississippi cattle.
The members of the board do not
believe that it will become neees-
sary to resort to quarantine ordi-
nances against any farmer in order
to make effective the plans of the
board. since the plan in view does
not impose heavy expense on any
farmer-Jackson Correspondent |

The Corn Club

Supt. Rush has issued the fol.
lowing instructions to the BOYS who
have formed the corn club in Clai.
borne:
Select your SEED corn as near like
the bulletin tells as possible. Get
corn that has cob that is neither
too large nor too small but medium
size; ears of good length and almost
cylindrical; get ears with good
depth of grain but grain must not
be teo wedge shaped and all of the
germs must be of about the same
size. Do the best with the seed
that You can select this year and 1
will try to get you some improved
seed next year. Try to conduct
your patch as near like the instruc-
tions given for the breeding patch
as you can and try to learn why the
things are true that the bulletin
tells you about.
Plant yoAr corn as so Oh after April
Ist as possible, if on levelor slope;
but if OH bottom land" it might
be better to wait little later-pos-
sibly until the middle or the last Of
April. Plant on beds that have
been narrowed down until they are
almost level and if your father has
any kind of cultivator or Dixie
Side Harrow" use that to cultivate
your corn with, in preference TO a
turning plow. When your corn
begins to come up take the sharp
est tooth harrow that you can find
and run right on top of the row
over the entire field to kill the small
weeds aud grass that are coming
up. If you have planted a good
stand, don't be afraid that the har-
row will hurt 1t for it will only do
corn good by breaking the crust of
the ground. Try 1t and see for
yourself. The breaking OF the
