That the hookworm is alarmingly

STATE FAIR PLANS ON.
Mammoth Exhibit of Mississippi Pro-
ducts to Be Shown.

1t begins to look like business over
arations are ON foot for the annual
state fair. Heaped up in splendid
masses, near the main entrance, are
boulders which were quarried from
the Mississippi quarries in TishOmin-
go county. The arrival of this ex-
hibit of native stone created sensa-
ton as the long procession of floats
drew the loads up State street and
finally deposited them in the capitol
grounds in one monster pile. Just
$4,000 pounds is the weight of this
heap of blocks; and no exhibit at the
fair will be finer proof of Mississippis
undeveloped possibilities than this
mass of stone which was brought di-
rect from thine quarries of the North
Mississippi Traction Company's prop
erty. Hidden away there by the pro-
tecting bosom of Mother Earth are
untold riches, and not the least of
these, as will be demonstrated speed
lily, are the unlimited stretches of this
fine grade of stone.
Eight hundred acres owned by this
company have vast deposits of the
very finest quality of stone, which
many authorities have pronounced to
be even superior for building purposes
to that of which the magnificent new
capitol was built.
If the state fair should do nothing
more than bring Mississippi people to
a realization Of the splendid possibili-
ties of their own great state, by ex-
hibits such as this, it will easily have
indicated the faith of it's directors
who are working so hard and so 10y
ally to prove to the people of Missis-
sippi that their native state is worthy
to take the lead in great enterprises.

DIFFICULTY OF INVASION.

Whenever war is discussed invasion
Is sure to be treated as a matter to
be considered anxiously. Yet sue
cessful invasion has always been the
exception, rather than the rule. Eng
land has had fit of the shivers every
few years for centuries at the thought
of invasion, and yet it has actually been
centuries since she has suffered from
an invasion, says Manchester Union.
In the last war with England there
was a great deal of talk about inVa-
sion, both of this country and of Can
ada, yet nothing came of it all except
the taking Of York, now Toronto, by
Pike, and the capture of Washington
by Ross, neither of which had any
permanent results or even any impor-
tant influence on the course of the
war. Now and then something is
said in the newspapers and in military
circles about the invasion Of the
United States by the army of some
hostile nation. 1t is well enough to
provide suitable coast defenses, for it
would be disagreeable and expensive
for some one of our seacoast towns
to be levied upon for a heavy tribute
by hostile fleet, but as to an inva-
sion which would reach anywhere into
the interior, it is not for a moment to
be seriously entertained.

TAX SALES INVALID.
Acknowledgement Fox Delivers Opin

ion of Wide Moment.
Under ruling of the attorney-gen
erals department, through Assistant
Attorney-General Carl Fox, in an opin
ion rendered to Land Commissioner
Gillespie, there appears to be quits
muddle surrounding the sale of Ger.
tain lands to the state of Mississippi
for taxes back in 1872.
The specific sale which forms the
basis of the opinion was made in
Smith county, and it appears from the
records that the then sheriff, in ne.
gotiating the sales, included in the
amounts 10 per centum damages AS
sistant Acknowledgement Fox, in an
opinion sent the land commissioner,
holds that it appearing from the rec
ords that if the sheriff included dam
ages at that time, he had no such au-
thority. Decisions of the supreme
court have held that such action of
itself was sufficient to invalidate the
sales so made The law has been
changed since, but the sale was made
under the old statute, and conSe
quently the state has no title and the
realty must revert back to the original
owners or their heirs or assigns.

FARMING IN JAPAN.

Those who despise the power Of the
Japanese people should correct their
estimates by a study of the agricul-
tural prodigies of this most capable
race, says New York American. In
war the first victory rests with the
commissary, and the last objective OF
all military operations is the COM
mand of the wheat fields-or the rice
fields. Nations are strong not in pro-
portion to their natural resources, but
In proportion to their ability to make
much of what they have. Now,
Japan does its farming in way that
Is, from military point of view, sim
ply formidable. 1t supports a popula-
ton of 51,000,000 on an area Of ara
BILE land that could be contained In
a circle with radius of rs miles-con-
siderably less than the distance from
New York TO Philadelphia There are
more farms that are called worn
out in New England and the middle
states than would equal the whole of
the tillable surface of the Japanese
islands. Our lands are worn out,
of course, merely because our scant
skill and tickle patience are exhaust
ed, and not because they do not con-
tain under their hidebound sods the
making of the food of millions The
teeming little farms of present day
Japan were cropped a thousand years
before the Pilgrims landed on the Ply
mouth sands.

The latest public school develop
ment is the proposed establishment
of classes at Montclair, N. j., for in
struction in the prevention of tuber-
culosis. A census of the Montclair
schools shows that there are about IS
pupils who are predisposed to tuber
culosis, and to save these children
and others the authorities propose
to establish outdoor classes in each of
the schools. 1t would be good policy
to make instruction in warfare against
tuberculosis general so that the pu-
pills may guard themselves against in
lection, and avoid inclusion in the
outdoor classes. The open air school
is becoming quite general. New
York has opened one and the school
authorities of Chicago are preparing
to do likewise

UP AGAINST QUARANTINE.
Laws Interfere With Removal of Cat
tie From One County to Another.


The Peabody and Gayoso hotels of
Memphis have run up against snag
around which they will have to naVi-
gate carefully. These hotels maintain
a great dairy farm near Horn Lake,
DeSoto county, near the Tennessee
line. Here they have built magnifi-
cent quarters for the COWS, which are
to supply their guests with milk and
butter. The buildings are of concrete
the stables, silos, milk rooms, etc.,
being built with view to perma-
nency, and it is the intention of the
management to enlarge and expand
the business till it brings in milk
during the year about 500 COWS of
high grade.
Some time since this DeSoto county
enterprise purchased herd of cattle
near Grace, Issaquena county, and on
attempting to move them discovered
that quarantine lines must be crossed
and that they were up against Uncle
Sam" as we'll as the state of Missis-
sippi. Being in quandary as to what
20 do, an appeal was made to Com
missioner of Agriculture Blakeslee at
Jackson, and that gentleman has just
advised the hotels at interest that the
cattle cannot be moved from Issa-
quena to DeSoto-the cattle tick fight
having been waged there for two
years, and their pastures being free of
the pests and quarantined against all
counties that have not made the fight
against the tick.

Conserve Common Sense.

"Is not the present, as we have

course has been added-a course in
loyalty. Methodically, our children
learn how to vote, how to conduct
primaries, conventions and elections,
how to discriminate between qualifica,

to govern as well as serve. They are
taught to despise bribery and all
forms of corruption and fraud as
treason Their creed, which they are
made to know by heart, is not COM

lofty in aspiration. These are the
pledges which are craven upon their
memories:

run away from battle, SO 1t Is coward
ly for any citizen not to contribute
his share to the well-being of his
country. America is my own dear
land: she nourishes me, and I will
love her and do my duty to her,
