Rev. w. w. Mitchell

The Methodist Conference OF North
convened on Wednesday OF
this week at Sardis, which means the
changing of homes for many Methodist
preachers. The pastor of that church
here, Rev. w. w. Mitchell, the writer
regards as one of the strongest and
best prC achers In this Conference. Ills
discour. es will bear critical analysis
aDd they always contain good spiritual
food. However, if the Sentinel ever
forced to make guess it would state
taat Mr. Mitchell would not be return
ed to this charge. This the writer
would personally very much regret. He
has been very helpful to the church in
Grenada and indeed to the entire com
munty. Should he be chargei, the
Sentinel expresses the Etpi that he
will get one of the most desirable APP
pointmonts in the Conference.

Lectures on school Tm-
DrOVemCnt

Miss Susie V. Powell. who Is touring
the state under the direction of State
Superintendent Of Public Education J.
n. Powers. in the interest OF school
Improvement" was in Grenada on
Thursday and Friday OF last week. On
Thursday afternoon, by invitation of
Prof. Hall, she appeared before the
public school with th- view Of organ
izing a Mothers Club Quite a nnmber
of the mothers of the town were pres
ent to hear the speaker They were
well entertained. and at the conclusion
Of Miss Pswell's remarks Mothers
Club was organized. with Ms. 0. F.
Lawrence as president and Mrs. T. j.
Brown as secretary.
On Friday morning Miss Powell made
an address at the court house. She
was introduced by County Superintend-
ent James, who utilized the opportunity
! to throw out some wholesome sugges-
tons about school work and what the
| teachers should endeavor to do.
! MISS owen GGlEtSS CO4lSulilSL
about an hour. What she said was
practical and capable of being incorpo-
rated into the life of any school. 1t is
to be regretted that every school pa
tron in the county did not hear Miss
Powell. If they had, the Sentinel feels
sure that the failure to provide the
necessary fuel and unsanitary ways of
supplying water, as well as several
other things that belong to innocuops
desuetude, would lot long be charged
to the neglect of the parents of the
public school children of Grenada
county. The Sentinel was surprised
that there were so few of the teachers
of the county present. The county su-
perintendent had urged attendance and
showed a kesn disappointment over the
spsrsity of numbers.
Miss Powell is pleasing and effect.
i've talker and her mission can but re-
suit in great guod to the rising gener.
atien OF Mississippi.

Rev. T. W. Lewis Transferred
to ktemphis

While Grenada, with the many
friends of Rev. T. w. Lewis through
out Mississippi, regrets to see him
leave the state, yet the people here re-
joice in the demand for him and that
he goes to a larger field. He willsmeet
his enlarged duties end responsibilities
in most highly satisfactory manner.
He is strong preacher and a very at
tractive pulpit orator. He possesses,
as tew other ministers do, the qualities
of being both forceful in the pulpit and
a good pastor. He will keep in touch
with his flock and lead his people by
his magic personality as well as by his
strong religious fervor. He twas tpas-
tor of the Methodist church in Grena-
da for four years and is held in high
esteem here without regard to ..dencmi-
national lines. The Sentinel bespee. :
for Mr.. Lewis and his good wife the
most generous cor orsidsratioa of the
Meshodists Of Memphis.

THE GAZETTE as follows about the
cave-in in that city:

Lewis street, just in rear of Prof.
Wilson S brick dwelling which is
on the corner of Baldwin and Lewis
streets. Two houses are on this
lot, one brick and the other frame.
The kitchen of the brick house has
gone down. Mr. Partlow, a con
tractor, is at work propping up this
house with an arch of timbers. His
props are resting on solid rock.
saw Mr.. J. b. Shannon SITTING
on his porch and said to him that
was informed he had vacated his
house, but he said he had not. His
residence is northwest from Bald

Valuable Fertilizer Has Been Lost in
Staunton

For The Gazette
Carbon dioxide has been shown
by the Agricultural Experiment
stations to be what is known as an
-productO of bacterial decomposi-
ton of the organic matter that is
in our soil. Often this carbon
dioXide is dissolved by water in
passing through the soil, and thus
comes in contact with the mineral
matter of the soil and this water
heavily charged with carbon diox-
ide has a wonderful effect upon the
carbonate of lime Oimestone) in the
soil.
This is illustrated by the recent
cave or sink holes in Stanton.
Great masses OF limestone have been
dissolved by the carbon dioxide.
The many sink holes and cavesin
the Valley OF Virginia and the Nam
moth Cave of Kentucky have been
thus formed.
Another end-Droduct Of bacterial
decomposition of organic matter Of
the soil is nitric acid This acid
reacts with the bases in the soil to
form nitrates, as iiDe usually &C.
ours along with other bases, nitrate
of lime or calcium nitrate will be
formed This is soluble, and is a
pant food. Sulphate of ammonia is a
valuable fertilizer. but there is more
or less danger in using IL extensive
ly. Its application TO tie soil causes
a chemical change between this and
the carbonate of lime in the soil and
forms sulphate Of lime which VIC
have in the old Nova Scotia plaster
Gypsum This is more soluble
than carbonate of lime and there
fore, readily teaches through the
soil.
The Rothamstead Experiment sta
ton. England, shows that wher
phosphate and potash (minera
manures) are used, carbonate o
lime is lost at the rate Of 800 pound,
per acre annually; when minerals
and 200 pounds sulphate of am
monia were used, the loss was / II
pounds; when 400 pounds ammoni
salts only were used the loss wa
1,045 pounds; when stable manur
only was used. the loss was 50

dealing with the liquor question,
