There are many reasons why SC
many of our brightest boys leave
the farm. However. am of the
opinion that most of our intelligent
BOYS leave the farm to seek honor
They do not think 1t is possible
for a farmer to be highly honored
by his fellow men. They judge from
the amount of honor bestowed up
on the average farmer. They dc
not stop to think that the average
farmer is not we'll educated and
qualified to fill positions of honor
and trust. They do not seem to
realize the fact that the Ignorant
lawyer belongs to the down and
out club. They do not seem to re-
alize the fact that the uneducated
men in every calling are required
to 90 way back and sit down.
Hundreds of other men leave the
farm because there is little chance
of becoming wealthy on the farm. |
will admit that there is no chance
to Accumulate fortune on farm.
Very few farmers have ever accutn-
ulaied as much as $50, 900. Farm
ing is necessarially small business.
It cannot be spread out over thous.
ands of acres. The farmer must do
thing himself, or have his shad-
ow fall on the man who does 1t, 1t
be wants to succeed. The ideal
farm is small one.
A good living is all that any man
can get out of this world. The
farmer can get better living and
live a happier life than any other
professional man. He cannot hoard
up banks of gold, but he can and
his family can have comfortable
home, plenty to eat, and good cloth
ing to wear. Young men and
Young ladies, what more do you
want?
The farmer is probably more near
ly independent than any other man
He can work as he pleases, talk as
he pleases. and vote as he pleases,
1t makes no difference what opin-
ion he expresses, his land will yield
just the same.
Young men, get good agricul-
tural education and stay on the
farm. The day is not far distant
when men will be taken from be-
tween the plow handles and placed
in the legislative halls, the halls
of congress. and in the governors $
chair. The same honors will be
conferred on farmers that is confer
red on others.

Some farmers are very much ops
posed to paying say ten cents to
support a county department of
agriculture, an agricultural high
school, farmers institutes, etc.
Many of these same farmers pay
two dollars every year to have
deeds of trust recorded, a con-
siderable sum as interest on Dor.
rowed money, or largepart of
their farm produce to pay for
fifty per cent added as credit
profits. We need agricultural col
leges, agricultural high schools,
farmers institutes, county depart
ments of agriculture, farm journ-
ais and other agencies at work all
the time until the farmers of this
State make more per acre aud cul,
tivate more land per hand and get
out of debt.

DROWNED IN LICK BAYOU.
The Freshet of Last Week CIaim-
ed One Victim.

Soon after the rain storm of Mon.
day of last week Henry Robinson,
Jr., colored, residing on LaCache
plantation, attempted to ford Lick
Bayou, near Tillman. The cur
rent was SO swift that he and his
mule were carried down stream.
The mule succeeded in getting to
land, but the unfortunate rider dis
appeared, and nothing more was
seen of him until this week when
the body was found where the
stream empties into Bayou Pierre,
fully half mile below wheIe the
accident occurred.
Robinson was warned not to at
tempt to cross the swollen stream,
but having successfully done SO on
former occasions, he would not
listen to the friendly advice.

FARM IMPLEMENTS.

Labor-saving machinery is now
used In every branch of industry.
The loom, the shoe pegging outfit,
and other kinds of out-of-date ma
chinery have been discarded. Why
should many farmers continue to
use the implements used by their
grand-fathers? Human labor is the
most costly thing used in the pro-
duction of crops and we ought to
use as little as possible.
It is true that many farmers cam
not. afford to buy costly laborsaving
farm implements, They do not
take, care of their farm tools. They
let their tools remain out in the
rain and sunshine from years end
to another. The tools do not last
more than two or three years.
They. cannot afford to spend sever
al hundred dollars each year for
tools.
We boast of our common sense.
We are certainly not using any
kind Of sense when we leave our
wagons, buggies, plows, and other
farm tools out in the weather. We
are using anything but sense when
we work hard for money to pay fol
tools to decay in the fence corners
We con house our tools when not
using them and cause them to las
four or FIVE times as long as they
uowia
A small tool house can be bull
for very little money, It ought t
be SO constructed that 1t is as easy
to put the tools away as 1t Is t.
leave them out. Let us build thi'
house and turn over new leaf II

i was the chairman of the Commit.
tee OIL Diversi6cation that made the
| following report at the last meet
ing of the State Farmers Union;
Whereas, The improvement oI
rural conditions in the State oi
Mississippi depends mainly upon
the earning capacity of the agricul-
tural classes; and
Whereas, The productive capaci-
ty of the tillers of the soil depend
mainly upon the productiveness of
the soil; and
Whereas, The one crop system
means poor soil. and poor soil
means poor peopleand poor peo-
pie means a continuance of the
present ruinous credit system, and
the credit system forces the bulk
of the cotton crop Upon the mar
ket at such a time as is necessary
to force the market down and rob
the farmers of the rewards of their
honest toll:
Therefore, Be it resolved that
the State Farmers Union institute
vigorous campaign along the fol-
lowing lires, to-wit:
I. The diversifcation of crops in
order to enable us to handle about
thirty acres of land per hand in such
way as to continually increase its
productiveness instead of wearing
out about fifteen acres at time.
2. The diversifeation of crops in
order to reduce the acreage in cot
ton, and thereby lessen the num-
Der of bales and raise the price.
3. The growing of every farm
product necessary for home con-
sumption in order to almost entire
ly eliminate the credit system.

Corpse Recovered.

The Reveille stated last week
that the corpse of girl, which
was washed away last week when
the funeral procession attempted
to cross a swollen stream, was new
yer recovered. This was an error,
made by our informant. The re-
mains were recovered, though with
great difhculty. The first report
was true In all other respects.

rIrs. Clara Warren Pearson.

Died, Wednesday, May Io, 1909,
1916 p. M, in her 84th year, at
her home, Port Gibson, Miss. She
was born January the nth, 1896,
at Brymorda, Owestry, Shropshire,
England, of a good family and
afluent parentage.
On the death of her father, Mr..
Joseph Warren, the Oldest son,
Henry Warren, inherited the estate
which was entailed property. Mrs.
Warren, a highly educated and
cultured woman, with the remain
der of her family embarked for the
United States, she and her daugh-
ter taking charge of the Episcopal
School in Kittining, Pennsylvania.
Years later, also having charge of
the Episcopal Church School, Col
umbia, Tennessee, from thence
moving to Grand Gulf, Miss, be-
ing connected with the Young La
dies School at that place, where
the youngest daughter, Clara, met
and married Mr.. Clark A. Pearson,
March z6, 1876, and has remained
a citizen Of this county ever since.
A copy of a letter found among
Richard T. Archer's effects in set
Ting up his estate follows:
ANcHUcA, Sept. 18th, IS64.-
Hon. Jeff Davis, President of c.
S. of Any Dear Sir: Mr..
Charles Pearson, is an old mer.
chant and fnancier of incorrupti-
bic integrity and purity. I believe
him to be a patriot without re-
proach, mild, firm, observant, in
quiring, intelligent, and clear in
perception. emphatically what is
meant by ga man who attends to
his own business and therefore
not distrusted. l know no one
who sees and comprehends more
of passing events. He is wise
and good man. We are here with
out courts and civil authority, in a
state of anarchy and its lawless
despotism. We have disafected
and preachers of disaffection and
who are guilty of many abuses
which never reach the president.
| conjecture that no one has
fathomed these abuses more thors
oughly than Mr.. Pearson. Mr..
Pearson has requested letter of
introduction to you, and though
unwilling to intrude on your time.
Iregard it a duty when called on
to commend to the President one
whom | esteem so eminently capa-
BILE and reliable.
May God guide and sustain you
in your exalted station.
am with highest respect and
best wishes,

HUMAN NATURE.

(Hailey, Idaho, News-Mirror.)
Communicated by local poet, with
thanks to the Dry Goods Reporter.
There are some shoppers in this town
who think they know II all,
But they never buy in Hailey-oh,
no, this towns too small.
They shop and shop and on clerks
have no pity.
But when they have a cent to spend
they go to Salt Lake City.
But human natures much the same,
no matter where they go,
And while our dear friends here think
our stores SO very slow,
In Salt Lake City her sister or cousin,
to say the least,
Can't find a thing to suit her. here,
and SO goes further east.
In Chicago. that big city that Is ruled
by men from Cork,
Her sisters sister fails to find any
thing this side New York;
While in New York another sister
and there are many more than
three
Can't find thing to suit her there,
and she goes across the sea.
In London and in Paris, where still
other sisters dwell,
/ really don't know where they go,
but hope they go to hell.
