CREMATORY Will
Be PUT IN SHAPE
Lewis & kinchen, Of Chicago, Have
Authorized Mr.. A. H. Innerarity
to Do Necessary Work.

After so long time, the Hatties-
burg crematory is to be put in first
class condition, Messrs. Lewis & Kin
chen, the contractors, having advised
the city clerk that Mr.. A. H. Inner
arity, of this city, was authorized by
them to do whatever was necessary,
in his opinion, to put the plant in
good working order.
The crematory is an institution
which has probably caused the ad.
ministration more trouble than any of
the city's public institutions, the con-
tractors contending all the time that il
the plant should be run according to
instructions it would work satisfactor.
lily. while the city council was of the
opinion that such was not the case.
Several experiments have been
made, after each of which the crema
tory appeared to perform satisfactor
lily, but within a short while it would
invariably go back to its old habit ol
smoking and disseminating disagree

DIDN'T 7ARRY LONG
in HA71|ESBURG
-Irate Mothers Pursuit Caused Or.
VALLEY and Bride to Leave
Quickly.

Driven at a pace far exceeding the
speed limit, an autoombile dashed up
to the entrance of the Hotel Hatties-
burg about $3.50 O'Clock Saturday
afternoon, and from 1t alighted q
happy-looking young couple whose
looks and actions had that intangible
and indefinable quality which to even
the veriest tyro among observers pro-
claims bride and groom. On the hotel
register a moment later the young
man inscribed: David Valley and
wife, Richton, Miss" About three
minutes later the young man got a
long-distance call, and just about
three minutes after he entered the
telephone booth he emerged there
from wiping beads of perspiration
from his brow and evidently in a
hurry.
And when the c. & S. I. 6 o'clock
train left little while later for Jack
son, it bore Mr.. and Mrs. Valley
away from Hattiesburg.
This all happened in such short
order that the few spectators about
the hotel who witnessed it were left
confounded and bewildered, but news
from Richton little later on cleared
everything up.
1t appears that in Richton on Satur.

HOW TO GROW COTTON
IN SPITE 0F WEEVIL
And Diversified Methods Of Farming
Also To BE Taught-Expected
There viii Be so Agents In State

Special to The Netcs.

Special to The Netos.
jackson, Dec. 13.-The United
States department of agriculture, bu-
reau of plant industry, is perfecting
plans for the enlargement of it's scope
of work in Mississippi during the COM
ing year.
The corps of special agents assigned
to cooperative and demonstration
farm work will be almost doubled on
January 1. and by the estime the plant
ing season arrives the government
will have fully fifty agents employed
in the work of instructing farmers in
diversified forms of agriculture. and
the cultural method of growing cotton
in spite of the boil weevil.
The recruits to the corps of agents
will not be assigned entirely to the
counties where the boil weevil has
already made it's appearance. The de-
partment of agriculture deems it Of
much more importance to prepare the
farmers for the invasion of the past,
and the agents will be sent into the
counties that are in the path that the
insects will probably follow in their
march across the Mississippi.
A striking illustration of the char
acter of work that is being performed
by these special agents is shown by
the report of Special Agent c. w. Wat
son, who has been working in Madi-
son county during the past year. The
report shows that Mr.. Watson has
travelled 6,59S miles. within the
borders of the county. since the 1st
of January, and has directed the work
on sixty-four cooperative and demon
stration farms, in addition to which
he has also actively directed the work
of large number of boys corn clubs.

Jackson, Miss, Dec. 13.-The decis
ion of the special Legislative commit
tees appointed to frame new plan
of tax assessment and to equalize the
salaries of state officials not to make
public the nature of their reports un
til the legislature convenes is caus
ing some adverse criticism over the
state.
1t Is being vigorously contended
that these committees should make
public their recommendations and al
low the subjects to be thoroughly dis
cussed prior to the convening of the
lawmaking body: that the public has
right to know what will be proposed
and nothing whatever can be gained
by keeping plans secret. Furthermore
1t is asserted. to rush through legisla
ton on these important subjects is
more than likely to result in placing
immature and ill-considered laws OF

to repair the plant had been ordered,

the next day or two. The CRATES are
said to be in bad condition, but these,
Mr.. Innerarity thinks, can be easily
repaired. "The entire amount OF
work necessary to put the crematory
in good condition will not consume
more than three or four days, per

the work is finished l believe there
will be no more trouble from that
