THESE PEOPLE WILL GET ALONG.

1t has been the writers privilege re-
Gently to visit two places down in Ainite
county, Liberty and Gloster, and it is
gratifying indeed to see the manner in
which the people are taking the coming
of the boil weevil and the preparations
they are making to get along in spite of
its ravages. There are few sour faces
or discouraged farmers down there. The
calamity that has befallen them is not
in the least underestimate, but on
the other hand these people are determined
to be prosperous and happy in spite
of what damages the pest may be able
to inhict
At both places number of farmers
were asked as to how they felt and what
was being done to counterfeit the work of
the weeyil. In almost every instance
the answer was, that they expected to grow
everything possible for home consumption
with little to spare and make cotton a
surplus cotton in every sense of the word
And the indications were, that the good
people of Amite county were going to do
this very thing.
At Liberty and Gloster both, there
was seen at the county fair
splendid chickens and hogs on the ground
for sale by people who were breeding good
stuff and had more than was enough for
their own use. At Gloster, there was a
fair display of general farm products as
we'll as stock. Only few days had been
available to get it together, but it was there
just the same. No man who saw it could
doubt the possibility of the farmers doing
we'll in spite of the weevil. They can do
it and they will do it.
A fair association has been organized
at Gloster and Amite county will in
yite Franklin and Wilkinson to join her
in making a showing of what can be
done in that section with general farm
crops and live stock. The citizens are
interested and have the determination
to make it a success. The promoters of
this fair movement are deserving of COM
mendation, for there is nothing that will
tend to bring about the development de-
sired more than well managed fair of
this character.
All three of the counties interested IN the
fair have made cotton in the past to buy
mules, feed stuff and meat, but the change
has GENE already and one or two more
years will bring about complete revolu-
ton. All of these things will be
raised at home and the cotton will be a
money crop as we'll as others that will be
made so.
The boil weevil has undertaken ire
lnendous job if it expects TO starve The
farmers of these three counties, especially
those who own small farms and live or
sn. Those people will get along and
II a few years will be more prosperous If
4 every way than they were before Mr.. Bus
came along.
