less than one-tenth of a normal crop.
/ Can such a disaster to your county b,
avoided, and if so, what steps are nee.
essary.
Such crop failure can be avoided and
without taking time to explain the neces-
sity for each step, it is going to be es-
sential that ever farmer proceed as fol-
lows:
1. Get one or more good sows and
raise his own meat; get two three
good mich cows; arrange for big gar
den; put in big oat acreage for nexr
year, and sow this fall; plant a big
acreage in corn and put the best land in
corn. We must live at home. because
no merchant can afford to issue supplies
on boil weevil cotton crop.
?. Cut the cotton acreage to FIVE or
six acres to the mule. in order that the
cultural methods necessary may be closely
followed; and plant only the warm,
quick-maturing uplands to cotton.
8. Burn ever cotton stalk by or be-
fore Nov. IS, and clean out oughly
in and around all fields.
4 Get frst-class variety of seed
and plant reasonably early.
$. Use the proper fertilizer to hasten
maturity.
g. Give plenty of distance between
rows.
T.. Keep clean, work fast, and pick
all weevils and punctured squares as they
begin to appear in June.
Years of experience have taught us
that only by following these methods
closely can the situation be successfully
NIT.
What can you as an Individual do?
Just this: you can constitute of yourself
committee of one to put the facts before
every man interested, and you can assis,
in calling and attending a meeting of
your business and professional men and
farmers to devise ways and means OF
meeting the situation.
The writer has non other than an Of
fetal interest in this matter and a de-
sire to see every county in South Missis-
sippi continue prosperous.
The real interest must lie in YOUR
farmers and business and professional
men. If this is as widespread as it should
be your success is certain. If not, then
your experience is likely to be only a
repetition of the failures that other Sec
tions have experienced.

TO THE PEOPLE OF RANKIN COUN-
TY.

The State Board of Health is now
carrying on a campaign for better health
conditions among the people and to that
end physicians of experience have been
appointed tc look after the situation and
advise with the people as to the best
methods to ward off disease. especially
those diseases that are preventable, such
as typhoid fever, tuberculosis, and the
hook worm disease.
The State Board is laying special stress
on the hook worm disease, which is very
prevalent in the south.
This disease is the cause of many
deaths and renders its victims unfit for
properly attending their duties. 1t takes
away the energies of child, man or
woman, because of the loss of blood ex-
tracted by the paTasites-causes a pale
or sallow appearance, and its victims fall
easy prey to any disease that may come
along Ground itch is very prominent
indication of hook worm disease. as well
as a pale skin and loss of energy
| am now engaged in visiting certain
sections of Rankin county making an in
spection of sanitary conditions and search
ing for the hook worm disease. | will
be glad to hear from any physician or
any other person in my district in re-
gard to the prevalence of the signs of
hook worm disease in their vicinity.
And will be glad to be present at any
gathering of people to give instructions
along the lines of better health and sani-
tary matters in general. My work, how
ever, does not extent north of the A.

-. the town will forever stick in the
mud OF what use is 1t for the local pa
per to suggest improvements and new en-
terprisss if the suggestions are never
acted upon? One man cannot boom a
town. 1t requires the concerted action OF
the citizens. When one man shoulders a
town and attempts to carry it there are
always a lot of cranky kickers ready
to jump on top of the load. Unity of &C
ton is what knocks.
