icated, and hog raising will become
a staple industry in Mississippi in
future.
The cattle tick prevented the cat
tie raisers Of this State securing
good prices for their product, but
again the government, State and
Federal came to the rescue, and
Mississippi is almost free from tho
pest. A few months moro and Mis-
sissippi cattle will be as healthy
and the meat as fit as that of any
other section of the country.
With fine pasturage and mild
climate, requiring cattle to be fed
only about two months of the year,
with vast areas of uncultivated land
that can be converted into grazing
lands for large herds of cattle, this
promises to become one of the
chief industries of Mississippi in
the near future. Already there arr
numerous large herds Of cattle il
the State, and others are to be put
in just as soon as the cattle tick il
eradicated.
Grass that was allowed to go K
waste a few years ago is being Gu
and made into hay. It is an OK
cellent quality of hay and mean
many thousand dollars a year to tn
farmers of the State. This excellen
grazing for cattle is what will max
dairying a profitable industry il
Mississippi. There is always a goo
market for butter, milk and othe
dairy products. The present Pre-
duction of the diaries of the coun
try only partly supply the demand
and there is no State better equip
ped to develop this industry on
larger scale than Mississippi.

must be devised for conserving the un-

have enough to supply the plantations
and other industries. AS to whether or
not government control is the proper
system, am not yet prepared to
state"
The above statement was made yes
terday afternoon in reference to the
alleged shortage of the subterranean
waters Of the Island of Oahu. The Gov
ernor was reluctant to talk until he
should have received the report of Su.
perintendent Marston Campbell, who
has been investigating the matter.

More Rain Needed.
f. D. Tenney, president of Castle &
Cooke, the agents for Eva, does not
agree with the rather alarming stories
of any probable shortage, believing that
good rain would restore normal condi.
tions. Yesterday Mr.. Tenney gave out
the following statement:
HIt will be four years this winter
since we have had a good, soaking rain.
If we get thorough soaking or steady
rain of thirty or forty days this winter,
the artesian water level will be brought
up to its normal height.
! "The normal level of the water in
the wells at Eva plantation above sea
level, when the first wells were drilled
in May, 1890, was thirty.one feet six
inches. The height of the water in
these same wells today, when the pumps
are not running, is twenty-five feet one

late Gen. Henry A. Barnum, who was
one Of the fighting leaders of the Ar

face beamed. Then he broke out with:
"And. do you know. tho boy got into

about tho boy's receiving a congress

Nevertheless. l made up my mind
to see Prepident Garfield himself about
the matter. and went to Washington.
There I sought out the congressman
from my district and asked him II he
would go with me to the White House.
