Mr.. Pease has planned a house that
will be composed of glass and is going
to have 1t finished in some color that
will make it attractive, and such colors
will be permanent.
The moment this idea is started,
Mr.. Pease declared. the public will
be quick to see the value of the ma
terial. Its cheapness and reliability
are understood. Glass, he said. is the
most honest and most easily under
stood material in the world. 1t Is not
mysterious. and people win not have
to employ experts to see that the
quality is right. The glass for the
walls Of houses need not be transpar-
ent, but dense, like slate or stone. It
will. however. be hard and durable.
The roofs can be made Of the same
character OF glass. 1t withstands heat
and cold alike, and whatever patents
may interfere with the cheapness OF
the f~nateriai now are 50 nearly expired

CALL TO VETERANS.
Mississippi Would Erect a Monument
to the Women Of the confederacy.


Rosedale, Miss, May 20, 1910.
The United Confederate Veterans, at
the last reunion in Mobile, Ala, in
dorsed, without a dissenting vote, a
beautiful design, previously selected
by their committee, for monuments to
be erected throughout the Southern
states In honor of the women Of the
Confederacy.
This design is the brain work and
handwork Of a talented young woman
of the South, Miss Belle Kinney, of
Nashville, Tenn. It's chaste beauty
and simple dignity, as presented in
these imperishable monuments Of
bronze and marble, will appeal to the
minds and hearts of present and future
generations, while wildly recalling for
all time the devoted patriotism, the
steadfast courage, the intelligent and
loyal service and the tender love Of
these noble women of the Old South,
who, from first to last, were the life
and inspiration of the war-cradled ma
tion in its memorable struggle with
the armies and of a hostile
world.
The design being at last agreed on,
| each Southern state is now expected
to erect, with unnecessary delay, at
least one Of these monuments within
it's borders. We feel that Mississippi
| will be among the first to enter upon
this labor of love, and in pursuance of
our duties as members of the monu-
ment committee, we now call OF ev-
cry man in the state, old and young,
and on every Mississippi woman, born
during or since the civil war, who de-
sires to honor her Confederate mother,
/ and on the students of our colleges
and universities, and the school chill
dren of the commonwealth, to contrib
ute some sum, large or small to the
fund that must be promptly provided
for the purchase and erection of this
patriotic purpose, and we ask for that
amount, confidently believing that 1t
will be %cheerfully subscribed.

Governor Pleased With Schools.

Gov. Soel has just returned from a
visit to the 1. I. and c. at Columbus
and the A. and M. College at Stark

gratifed to find the affairs Of both
these institutions in such fine shape,
with no complaints, and no n called

Both have gone through a good sea-

Mr.. T. R. James will either have to

later commissioned a notary public.
Mrs. James cannot, under the law, hold
an elective and a~ppointive office at

have to decide whether he prefers to

MOSS ISSUES CAUTION.
TeIIa Farmers Not to PIow Up Boil
WeeviI Cotton.

TeIIq Farmers Not to PIoW Up Boil
WeeviI Cotton.
B. L. Moss, the indefatigable and
well-informed district agent of tho
United States, who is devoting all his
time to getting his farmers Of the
boil weevil territory in line with the
departmental methods of fighting the
pest, is sending out the following pre-
cautionary address:
ITO All Farmers in Boil Weevil Terri
tory:
This is the season of the veal when
the boil weevil is normally expected
to emerge from winter quarters and
appear in the cotton fields, and the
object of this letter is to warn all cot
ton planters against becoming panic
stricken and blowing up promising
fields of cotton. This has been done
in past seasons and done too often
without any logical reason.
among farmers in newly infested
weevil territory the impression is
sometimes current that the weevll
should not appear before July or Aug
ust, and any earlier appearance has
been the signal for panic and democrat
ization. Remember that it is perfectly
normal for the weevil to appear when
warm weather comes, and its appear
ance should occasion no alarm.
ION the other hand, all fields of cot
ton should be closely watched, and a
vigorous fight kept up to hold the Vice.
wills in check. The methods essential
have been repeatedly published In the
past, and 1t will only be necessary
here to state that for the remainder
of the season these must consist OF
rapid, shallow and clean cultivation,
the continual maintenance OF a dust
mulch and the careful destruction, by
picking and burning, Of all p%unctured
squares. A rigid adherence to these
methods has given good results even
in the worst seasons, and while this
years crop Is a little late, the present
good weather will enable it to largely
regain this, and in general the outlook
is fairly promising.
"In a few years the farmers OF
| Southwest Mississippi will be growing
profitable crops of cotton in spite OF
the weevil, and will then wonder just
why they became so demoralized when
it appeared.
"We can make cotton under weevil
conditions, and every man owes it, not
only to himself, but to his community,
to make the strongest possible fight
and demonstrate this fact to his own
and to his neighbors' satisfaction"

Prof. Smith Commissioned.

Prof. w. H. Smith of Durant has
been appointed as state supervisor OF
elementary rural schools. upon the
recommendation Of the state board OF
education, the appointment to date
from July 1. This signifies a new de-
parture in Mississippi, in which the
Peabody Educational Association fig
ures to the extent of defraying the
cost of this supervision, and it is
agreed on all sides that it could not be
entrusted to ADLER or better qualified
hands than those of the man who
gave the corn club system in the state
its boost toward success rs a going

ABOUT THE ORCHESTRA.

The local orchestra that is to assist
with the May festival, has a member
ship of sixty, and it's excellent ensem-
bic will undoubtedly be a source of
pride not only to the city. but to the
entire state. Its work will be one of
the most enjoyable features of this
notable musical event. The children's
chorus of $50 voices. in a work of
great beauty, Benoit's Cantata Into
the World" will be revelation to
those who have not heard this compo-
sition, which has been twice given at
the festival in Cincinnati. Ohio, and
in Indianapolis, Indiana. This canta-
ia is not trivial. childish work, but is
noble and beautiful composition, in
finitely attractive in its thought and
expression. both to those taking part
and to the audience. 1t will doubtless
make a profound impression.
