Corn has had to contend, in the belt
from northern Iowa to the Gulf, with
TWO extremes Of weather. In the
Southwest high temperature and
drought has prevailed which ended
with the storm that swept over Gal
weston this week. Along the Mississip
pi and in the lowlands there have
been some excessively heavy rains
and in some sections this caused the
omission of the final blowing. Even
these conditions have not affected the
crop seriously or in any way caused
the farmer to feel that the early pre-
dictions that the biggest crop for
years would not come true, and the
railroads are counting on corn as the
best prospect for utilizing their roll
ing stock during later in the year.
Throughout the cotton belt the crop
is making good progress and Texas
now promises a better yield than was
expected earlier in the season. The
drought has killed many of the boil
weevil in some parts of the state and
with the advance in price the farmers
are JuDlant. Cotton textile goods
are advancing in the realization of
higher prices for the raw material than
ranged last year.
Little attention has been paid to the
progress of the hay crop this season,
owing to the markets preoccupation
with corn, wheat and cotton, but last
year the value of hay alone was esti-
mated by the secetary of agriculture
at 1921, 100000 dollars. This month
conditions are not quite so good as in
1908 but are still above the ten-year

Circulation Double That of Any
Other South Mississippi Paper
THE HATTIEsBURG IDEA.

Just now the "Hattiesburg Idea is
receiving much attention.
The ''Hattiesburg Idea" contem-
plates settling up the cut-over lands
of South Mississippi, in. alternate
quarter sections, by offering them to
actual settlers at low price in order
to get good people to come here
and improve these waste lands and
make the adjoining quarter section
four times more valuable because of
these Improvements.
In order to make the movement a
success we must have a large amount
of the lands available and for such
time as will enable those who are
handling them to properly advertise
them in order that we may get the
best class of people who want homes.
The "Hattiesburg Idea" is getting
to the practical stage. Three gentle
men have indicated their willingness
to put in lands and all that is needed
now is for other land owners to follow
their example. Messrs Camp, McClan-
ahan and Wilder realize that in the
next five years there will be so many
saw mills go out of business that -
is imperative that something be done
to take the place of the mills or there
will be no progress in Hattiesburg
and Southeast Mississippi 1t must
be borne mind however that these
gentlemen must have the cooperation
of all the land owners if there is to
be a successful movement. 1t might
also be kept in mind that it is useless
for any land owner to imagine that
he can profit indefinitely by keeping
his lands idle. If they are not settled
up or sold to settlers the taxes will
eat them up so that it is the best pol

icy to sell part Of them so that the
taxable wealth may be distributed
In other words there is a change COM
ing to this section and the people who
own the land might as we'll wake up
to the fact. The cattle man thought
he could keep the vast areas of Texas
for the long horn steer but he found
out that the man who wanted home
would not be kept out. Southeast
Mississippi is provided with those
bounties of nature which marks it for
the home of the man who wants to
earn a competency by his labor. 1t is
country which will provide all the
necessities of life and it cannot long
be kept as Wilderness. There are
more ways than one of loosening up
the hold of those who are unprogres
sive and another fact that we wish to
impress on every man in South Mis-
sissippi is that the "Hattiesburg Idea
| is as broad as the acres of cut-over
lands. 1t is just as much in the in
| terest of Lumberton and Virgins as
| it is in the interest of Hattiesburg
The men who are leading this move
ment know that every man in Hatties
burg will reap an indirect benefit, by
the settlement of all these lands. So
will the men in other towns. The de-
velopment of this country will broaden
the opportunities for every energetic
man who wants chance to push his
business. 1t means a better chance
for the boys Of this state. 1t means
more opportunities in every field of
endeavor 1t is therefore a matter of
interest to every business man in South
east Mississippi and he should do all
he can to get the lands so that they
may be sold at low price to the act
ual settler and the result will be that
every village, town and city will feel
the effect and it will stimulate the
people to new efforts in every direc-
ton.
The 'Hattiesburg Idea" stands for
development Boost it for it means
the development of the whole section.
Talk for it for it means more oppor-
tunities for every man. Let there be
no hating until the work is accomp-
lished.

CROP CONDITIONS VERY EN-
COURAGING

(FrOm Southern Lumberman, July 24)
The condition of grain crops re-
mains a most encouraging feature of
the present business situation. The
winter wheat crop, the acreage con-
sidered, gave a good yield, while the
spring wheat throughout the United
States and Canada was never in a
more promising condition. Rains dam
aged the winter wheat in the shock
in some sections; for instance, in
Middle Tennessee the bad weather
interfered greatly with the harvesting
but farther to the West, even in West
Tennessee, this was not the case. The
prevailing price for the wheat has
caused a prompt marketing by nearly
every farmer and on Wednesday of
this week the market slumped off to

BETTER EXPRESS FACILITIES.

Now that the Northeastern station
is nearing completion, the people OF
Hattiesburg may look forward to bet
ter conveniences from the Southern
Express Company, as it will be neces-
sary for that company to establish an
uptown office and it is time that one
is provided that is in keeping with the
needs of the city. The distance of
the new station from the business
center makes this imperative and we
think that it is safe to say that the
Southern Express Company must real
ize that there will be no excuse for
failing to maintain an uptown office.
We think too that it will be wise for
the Northeastern to have an uptown
ticket office. 1t is a well known fact
that the people Of this day and age
want the most conveniences possible
and it will no doubt be profitable for
that road to maintain a city office.

of the evil spell

ransa is alleged to c-sIern World, III
md IN parliament of England AND
lot the congress of the United States
would have been holding its sessions
at Washington.
We have sometimes wondered what
would have been the historical story
if the federal convention, which con
vened in the city of Philadelphia OF
Friday, May &c, 1887, professedly for
the purpose of reforming the articles
of confederation. but as it turned out,
framing a new constitution, had faileL
and the same had been rejected?
The proceedings of that convention
were not at all harmonious, and it sat
from May 25 until September II, and
after its adjournment it was long
| time before the constitution it framed
| two-thirds vote of the states.
| Telling of the animosities engen-
dered by the slavery discussion in
said convention, Mr. Luther Martin,
member of the convention from
Maryland, in an address before the
legislature of his state said:
81 believe near a fortnight, per-
haps more, was spent in the discus
sion of this business the representa-
ton based On slavery, during which
we were on the verge of dissolution,
scarce held together by hair, though
the public papers were announcing
our extreme unanimity."
At that TIM Virginia had a larger
population and a greater number Of
manufacturing industries than any
state Of the then confederation, and
II the constitution had been rejected
by her, and the other southern states
had clustered around her, what to-
| day, would have been the story re-
corded in the annals of history?
Patrick Henry, George Mason, and
many others Of the most popular
statesmen Of Virginia and other south.
ern states, bitterly opposed the adop-
ton of the constitution because they
foresaw, in the then agitation of slav-
cry, what it would bring about.
The value of a slave at that time
was fixed at a hogshead of tobacco,
and this plant was then cultivated
solely in the south, and the cutiva-
ton of cotton followed quickly in its
wake.
If the southern states had formed a
confederation to themselves its ex.
ports would have been made from its
own ports and it would have esta5,
lished it's own manufactures. How
different would have been the story
of commercial empire.
Or suppose Grant, and not Lee, had
surrendered at Appomattox, or Sey.
mour, and not Grant, had been elected
president in 1868!
The reconstruction acts would have
been avoided, and all this hostile feel
| ing of section against section would
never have been engendered, and the
scars of war would have been quickly
healed and forgotten. There would
have been no resumption of specie
payments, the greenback issue would
not have been called in, there would
have been no money stringency, and
hence no panics, and a floodtide of
prosperity would have overspread the
whole country.
Suppose that Bryan, instead of Nc.
Kinley had been elected president in
1896, the silver mines would not
have been closed down, money would
have been abundant, there would have
been no Roosevelt panic, and the coun.
try would have been saved the calam-
ity of the Dingley and Aldrich tariff
bills, and the south would have been
members.-Ocala Banner.

The Episcopal Christmas tree
given last Saturday evening by
the eastern friends of Fred. w.
Dickle, who contributed many of
the presents, was a very pleas
ant affair. The hall was filled to
overlooking, and after the rem
dition of an interesting program.
the young folks present were re-
membered by the distribution Of
candy. nuts and toys of various
sorts. The tree was beautifully
decorated by Mr.. Dickle, who
exercised every effort to see that
all had a good time.
The lateness in holding the
function was due to the failure
of two boxes of toys to reach
here earlier. 1t is estimated
that about two hundred people
were in attendance. Addresses
were made by District Attorney
J. M. Breeze and former District
Attorney Chas. Lee Horsey.
