THE WONDERBERRY
OR SUNBERRY
has Proved a Great Success-Thou
sands Say It's the Best Thing
They Ever Grew.

The Wonderberry or Sunberry. the
marvellous garden fruit originated by
Luther Burbank, and introduced by
John Lewis Childs, the well-known
Scotsman of Floral Park, N. Y, has
proved a great success all over the
country. Thousands Of people say it
Is the best thing they ever grew.
Mr.. John Burroughs, the well-known
author, Naturalist and bosom-friend of
Theodore Roosevelt, says it is the
most delicious pie berry he ever tasted,
and a marvellous cropper.
A Director of the New York Agricul-
fural Experiment Station says it fruits
abundantly even in pure sand. In the
short season of Northwestern Canada
1t is a godsend, and fruits long after
frost has killed most garden truck.
D. S. Hall, Wichita, Kan, says thirty
people grew it there last season with
perfect satisfaction.
X. S. Enochs, Hammond, La, says
1t yields $250 worth of fruit per
acre with him. Mrs. ]. H. Powers,
1882 Kenwood avenue, Chicago, raised
enough berries on a space 4x1O feet
20 supply herself and friends.
j. P. Swallow, Kenton, Ohio, says its
equal for all purposes does not exist.
Rev. H. B. Sheldon, Pacific Grove,
Cal, says he likes the berries served
IN any and every way.
". T. Davis, Enon, Va, says it is
true to description in every way, and
fruits in three months from seed.
Judge Morrow, of U. S. Circuit
Court, says the W%onderberry is simply
delicious raw or cooked.
Mr.. ChildS exhibited II plant five
months old bearing 1O,375 berries
which measured about eight quarts.
Mrs. Hattie Vincent, Hayden, New
Mexico, says it stands the long, hard
d%roughts of that climate and fruits
~abundantly all summer.
1t is certainly the most satisfactory
garden fruit and the greatest Novelty
ever introduced.

Bank Examiner Needtd.

In closing an opinion dealing with one
of the cases that was the outgrowth OF
the Scranton State Bank failure some
few years ago, Chief Justice Whitfield
remarked that it was a case showing
the very great need for a State bank
examiner law in Mississippi. The case
under review was that of the State VS..
Edmund Mitchell, appealed from the Cir
cult Court of jackson county, the appel
lee being one of the directors of the
Ocean Springs branch of the parent
bank which became insolvent. While the
record shows that Mitchell was not at
Ocean Springs at the time that the de-
post of money was made, II Louis
Lundy, an employee, was there, and re-
ceived the deposit, and was there with
the knowledge of Mitchell, who vas
of the insolvent condition of the
parent bank. The court, in the course
of a very elaborate opinion, held in eff
feet that the appellee, as a director, was
responsible for the act of the employee,
and that the peremptory instruction
granted the defendant by the court was
clearly The opinion quotes
copiously from the law reports of other
States, though the point raised was a
new one in Mississippi practice, and the
only course was to reverse and remand.

Contest Interferes With Court.

Because nearly all the lawyers of the
Jackson bar are too deeply interested in
the senatorial contest to attend court,
Chancellor Garland Lyell has been un-
able to transact more than half of the
business on the docket, and adjourned
court with scores of cases continued for
hearing in vacation or at the next reg
ular term. There has probably never
before been a contest in which the entire
business and professional life of a city
has been so paralyzed and demoralized
by politics, and for so long a time, as in
the present instance.

Whiskers.

A Roman poet told of the price one
of the late Caesars took in his great
whiskers. On some of the wildwood
Hill Billies l have seen boards some
feet long, a switch of the loose ends
hanging out from under the waistcoat.
Others braided the growth and tied it
around the neck, while still others
braided it around the waist, tying it
behind like apron strings. One told
me he combed and plated his every
night, and put it away into a long
linen bag or nightgown, so as to keep
it from getting all tangled up with his
wife and his feet.-New York Press.

Will Ask for Larger Appropriation.

Prof. H. L. Whitfield, president of the
Industrial Institute and College, is in
Jackson comforting with the house com
mittee on appropriations and the sen.
ate committee on finances relative to the
appropriation bill for his institution. The
Industrial Institute and College is the
only educational institution supported by
state appropriation that had an enroll
ment offered for the current term in ex-
cess of facilities for accommodations, and
its friends in the Legislature will make an
energetic effort to secure a more liberal
appropriation.

To induce the Illinois Central and va

pertinent farm of about 100 acres ia
every county in Mississippi through

extending through the delta lines. So
firmly convinced of the feasibility of
this idea is Mr.. Easum that he has al

before President J. T. Harahan.

Seek Experiment Station.

The agricultural experiment station
epidemic, which had already sprung up
in almost every other section of the
state, has now spread to the coast coun-
try, where there exists a soil and eli
mate in many respects peculiar to that
immediate vicinity and differing from
that around any of the existing stations,
although the Mcneil station, in Pearl
River county, is only a few miles from
the coast. The demand for this new
coast station comes particularly from
combining to have it established in that
vicinity.

Legislation DELAYED.

A very strong inclination to consider
no measures save revenue and appropria.
ton bills is manifesting itself among
members of the legislature, and the pre-
diction is being made that when adjourn
ment is reached the journals will show
an exceedingly small number of general
laws enacted. The legislature has been
in session three weeks, and the only bill
that has passed the two houses and re-
ceived the signature of the governor is
house bill No. 4, carrying $S7,5OO to de-
fray the per diem and contingent ex-
penses of members of the body.

Asylum Asks for a Larger Grant.

The Mississippi Insane Hospital has
asked the legislature to increase its pro
rata from 1925 to $3.50 per patient, and
the matter is now pending before the
house committee on appropriations. The
increased amount, according to the au-
thorities of the institution, is made nee
essary by the increased cost of living and
the need for better equipment at the in
stitution, the installation of more mod
ern methods of treatment, etc. The hos
pital report shows an average of nearly
500 patients treated during the past
year.
