Noxubee's Vegetables.

The Yazoo City Herald devotes more
than a column tt a cabbage raised in
Yazoo county weighing II 1-2 pounds
and measuring 50 inches across. 1t
ever had a guessing contest over this
Delta cabbage.
The vegetable might have aroused
same interest here as a lettuce, but as
a cabbage would have attracted ne at
tention. A small cabbage exhibited in
Brooksville, raised on Gus McLeod's
place and gathered last week when
nearly fully grown weighed 80 pounds
and measured over 60 inches across.
Noxubee County can naturally beat
the world in growing anything that
grows in the middle temprate zone.

Don't Want Him in The Senate.

The friends of Nardaman may
make up their minds to get ready
to fight the world, the flesh and
the devil, III the contest for the
senate. 1t has been suggested
that the steel trust, the railroad
trust, the lumber trust and every
other organization of that charac-
ter, are going to do their dead lev
ell best to keep him out Of the sen
ate.
OF course the hirelings of those
interest are going to lie and ridi-
Guile the idea, but that is what
they I paid for, and the people
will find it out. The Issue.
The men who represent the
great trust don't even know Var
daman is living. He has never
been heard from to any appreciate
extent on any issue that effects
their interests, or as being a fight
er on any line except the repeal
of certain constitutional amend
mentS that are as firmly rooted as
the Andes, and to which the
trusts have never given a minutes
consideration.
On the other hand, they have
every eaSOn to fear Leroy Pearcy's
return, for in his short term of ser
vice he has shown himself a prac-
teal statesman and a powerful ally
to the congressional reform ele-
ment that now threatens the an
Inhalation of the trusts and com
bineS.
Nothing could suit the Cypress
Ors of the people better than for
every Southern state to send to
Washington its Quixotic knights
to shiver their lances against con
stitutional battlements, while the
HaAes, Lodges and Aldrches swing
agile sledges in fashioning the
fettersfOr the helpless and un-
champiOned masses.
1t is not the trurt that ''don't
want him in the Senate. "-Aber-
deem Examiner.

1t is due the people of MiSSiS
Slppi, who's votes are to decide the
contest between them. that Sena-
tor Percy and Gov. Nardaman
meet in joint debate and discuss
IN their presence the issues which
divide them. The fact that they
are nominal members of the same
party, though Nardaman'S popu-
listic, sOcialiStic anarchiStic and
anarchiStic differences leave his
democracy under the very gravtst
suspicion, are not in the present
instance sound reason for opposing
Joint discussion; for, say what you
will, Nardaman and all what it
stands for, contingent fund, BilbO
and the real issue in this cam
paign.
Nor can Gov. Nardaman's duty
to his family and creditors, great
and important as they + admit
ted to be, stand as a valid excuse
for his future to meet Senator
Percy; for the past holds no record
of any former recognition by him
of the binding force of these obi
cations.
Neither is there anything in the
suggestion that there is danger OF
a physical collision between the
principals or their followers. II
such a danger existed, or if there
ever lurked in the heart of any
scoundrel the thought or purpose
to do violence, the appearance and
bearing of Senator Percy at Lau-
derdale Springs and GOdbold
Wells has dissipated all such in
tentiOn. -Greenville Democrat.

Judge Henry in his charge to the
Kinds county grand jury last week,
said, among other things:
"Any legislature who asks or
seeks or agrees to take d bride, or
who actually accepts a bride. is
guilty of a felony, and ought to be
indicted. 1t is as much a crime
to accept q bride as to give a
bribe."
And yet the proceeding grand
jury in Kinds county that in
dicted the levee contractor Della
ney for the alledged rendering of
bride, on the testimony of the legis-
Iator Bilbo, who was drinking his
prospective victims whiskey and
tOting it away by the bOttle-full,
declining to indict this man who
confessed no seeking and taking a
bride, and having used part of the
money on the corr that call
money looked alike" to him.
No wonder the levee contractor
seeks chnge of venue and trial in
some other county, whether con
sciOus of guilt or innocent, rather

Business conditions through
out the country are good and,
apparently, based upon sound
and substantial foundations; the
July dividend distribution turned
loose large sums of money for
reinvestment or other uses in
nourishing the economic tody; a
sense of security and confidence
animates commercial and indus
trial undertakings; energy is
stimulated and enterprise quick
ened for the work of develop
ment that gives employment at
good wages to everybody that
wants to work and that is the
best kind of prosperity.
In this condition lies the OPP
portunity of the South, and,
particularly of Mississippi. No
state in the union can offer more
inviting fields for the employ
ment of capaital and enterprise
than can this, because none has
a wider range Of undeveloped
opportunity. A big movement
is now being launched to dissem-
mate information about these
opportunities that ought to be
fruitful of great good to the
state, if effort is persistent and
wise methods are employed.
Primarily, the state needs ad-
vertisement. 1t is not enough
for US to know the extent and
value of our undeveloped e
sources; we must tell the rest of
the world about them, in a way
that is convincing, and above
all, we must tell the simple
truth. Good wine needs no
hush" and Mississippi's oppor-
tunities need no eXaggeratiOn to
enlist the interest OF the lnVeS-
tor and homeseeker if they are
fairly and adequately made
known. We cannot afford to
make any claim that cannot be
realized in experience, nor should
there be any temptation to do
this when the plain and I'm
adorned truth is so potent to al
lure and convince.
The whole South is engaged,
as never before, the interest of
money and enterprise; and those
localities that are most persis-
tent and dilligent in making
known their advantages and OPP
portunities will secure the larg-
est share of this attention and
consequent investment, 1t is
Mississippi's opportunity to reap
a golden harvest for the b~enefac-
ton of all her people. The Mis-
SiSSippian.

The Dairy Industry of the United States

The Dairy Industry of the United States
According to the last year
book of the Department of Agri-
Culture, there are q, 72O, 900
mich COWS in the United States,
and these are worth STOP, 945,-
10000. The magnitude of the
industry can perhaps be best I'M
derstCod when it is considerd
that these COWS produce yearly
about 81, 900, 900, 900. 90 worth of
dairy products.
There is no other branch Of
diversified agriculture so impor-
tant to the progress of a COM
munity. The fertility of the soil
can best be maintained by the
liberal use Of barnyard manure
and the dairy herd not only
makes this possible, but dairy
ing is also more remunerative
than other branches Of farming
when properly carried on.
Dairying has made wonderful
progress since the advance of
the modern creamery and the
consumer of butter has not only
been benefited by being fur
finished a more wholesome and
palatable article of food, but the
wife in the farm home has been
relieved Of the drudgery Incl
dent to making butter on the
farm. Where formerly the
cream was ripened and churned
into butter under conditions not
conducive I'd fine quality in the
finished product and in the ma
jority of cases by unskilled
hands, now the most of the milk
or cream is delivered to a mod
ern creamery where conditions
are suited to the purpose of
making butter, and the result
has been a wonderful improve
ment in the quality of our dairy
products. AS the quality has
improved consumption has in
creased and the progress of dali
rying has been remarkable dur
ing the past Recade.
The perpetuity of the coun-
try's greatness depends upon in
creasing the production of farm
products froh year to year, a
result which not only furnishes
our people with food but main
tains the prosperity Of our farm
ing communities. Increase in
production can only come
through improved methods of
agriculture and soil improve
ment. When it is considered
that the dairy COW is the founda-
ton for soil Improvement and
farming prosperity, her impor-
lance is best understood, and in
tereSt in her should not be con
fined to her owner. She is an
important factor in the develop
ment and prosperity of our
country.
