MANY FARMERS TO ATTEND
LIVE STOCK MEETING.

All of the principal railway lines In
the state have announced reduced
rates for delegates to the annual con-
vention of the Mississippi Live Stock
and Dairy Association. to be held at
Starkville on Dec. 1880.
A letter from Or. Tate Butler, presi-
dent of the association, states that the
attendance will be the largest in the
history of the organization. There is
lively manifestation of interest
throughout the state in the live stock
industry caused chiefly by the advent
of the boil weevil and the necessity
for diversiication on the farm, and
hundreds of farmers are expected to
attend the convention and obtain the
benefit of the addresses on practical
topics by some of the foremost stock
men and agricultural experts in the
country.

SAYS SUPREME COURT
PEANUT MEETING
Will DRAW CROWD

jackson, Miss, Dec. 19.-The con-
ference OF all interested in the peanut
question, called by President John A.
Webb of the Mississippi Railroad Com
mission, is exciting a great deal of
interest, and indications are the meet
ing will be largely attended. The
meeting is fixed for Tuesday, Jan. g,
when railroad men, mill men, planters
and others will meet to discuss the
proposed rate on this new product.
Though in its first year, the peanut
Industry has assumed extensive pro-
portions in Mississippi, and next year
several thousand acres will be planted
in peanuts. Realizing that peanut
culture will soon become one of the
chief agricultural industries of the
state, the railroads, as we'll as the
commission and others interested
want to get together and fix an equita
~ rate,
CitatiOns were sent out to all the
railroads several days ago, and while
all of them have not been heard from
it is known they are willing to make
just rate. 1t has been suggested
that a aat tariff be made for peanuts
with 25 per cent added when handled
by two roads and SO per cent added
where handled by three roads.
Peanuts cannot be handled at the
same rate as cotton seed, because
they are lighter but it is not believed
there will be any difficulty in arriving
at a satisfactory rate.
