Young man, you that are about en-
barking in life on your own account,
as you value your hopes of success, let
not the burden of debt ever rest on you
with its blighting curse. Resolve that
though you possess but little, it shall be
your own in truth and in deed. Re-
solve that whatever you own shall be
yours, untrammeled and free. That no
man shall hold mortgage over your
title, and that no scheming money lem
der shall have the chance to step in and
take advantage of your hard earnings.
If you can't pay for what you want,
better go without until you can.
Countenance the contracting of no debts
except in cases of sickness or other un-
avoidable causes. A little self denial
at the start often lays the foundation
for period of prosperity and affluence
in after life. Live within your means,
and grow up as your means increases.
Break free from the old ruts with their
calling chains, and institute a new de-
parture. Turn your plow into the old
field and root out the last vestige of
the detestable weed that has so long
been encroaching upon true progress.
By this we do not mean that you should
be covetous, niggardly, for this, too, is
a vice equally to be Stunned, as we
may, with the editors permission, have
occasion to speak of it in some future
number of these papers; but that you
walk up the journey of life without the
crushing burden of debt to drag you
down and darken your pathway, that
you may peacefully enjoy the fruits of
your labors, and that your chances of
ultimate success may be brighter, and
freer from risks.

general and the outlook more encour-

good shape.
Whatswill be the outcome of the cot

Upon petition of the Grenada bar,
endorsed by many citizens, Judge G. A.
Mclean has pretermitted the term
of the circuit court to conven e
here Monday except as to cases involv-
ing parties now in Jail and the case of
the State VS. c. c. Wier charged with
seduction. There will be no civil cases
tried.
The grand jury will convene, but
just how long it will be allowed to re-
main in session rests with the Judge.
The following parties are in Jail
charged with murder: E. R. Thomas,
white, Tom Hammonds and Ben Webb
and one woman, Delphi Haney. The
three last named are negroes.
The ease of Emma Adams of Elliott
and John Morehead of LeFlore, both
negroes, will no doubt receive early at
tention by the grand jury. They are
both charged with carving up one of
their negro brethren.

Our Possibilities.

The high prices of food stuffs, espec-
Tally meat IS one of the live questions of
the day. The reason is not to be found
alone IN the caprice of the packer. The
great cattle rangers of the West are no
longer available. The whole system of
pasturage has changed This has in
creased tha price Of beef products. 1t
also indicates, not that there shall be
decrease in cattle, hogs and sheep to be
produced but the methods of production
must change. The demand for such prod
ucts is naturally increasing with popuIa-
ton and more different source of SUD-
ply considered. The stock grower and
farmer has wide opportunity open to
him which it would be we'll for him not
to overlook. The South is the only sec
tion where pork can be produced at to
z IL cents and beef at from 3 to &c per
pound. For many years the national
tendency has looked to the West for
hogs and beef but the West is no long,
er equal to the demand. Armour & Co.
have, it is said, made large purchases
of land in South America anticipating
the rapidly approaching day when the
West sohuld fail. Our short mild winter
makes long continued feeding unneces-
sary, and during those three or four
months, cotton seed hulls, very yalu-
able cattle food, can be cheaply SUD-
piled by our local mills, Our native
grams supply excellent grazing until
the 1st of January and winter pastur-
age can be easiy obtained by sowing
rape, clover, rye and fetch. We have
the statement of prominent cattle
raiser IN our county that he maintained
100 head of cattle, colts and 65 hogs
throughout last winter without the cost
OF cent except for salt.
A bulletin issued by Mr.. J. w. Fox.
of the Mississippi Experiment Station

If our farmers will devote their at

TiSitOrS. EleUen
Candidates. Bic Ban
qUet Ot Hester Hail.
-Four Speeches.

The Knights TemplarS of Grenada
held an important convocation Wednes-
day afternoon and evening OF this week.
a tenplar's hospitality is uncircum-
scribed. Invitations had been sent to
many brethren and large number re-
sponded. Sir Knights, clad in white
uniforms, met every train Wednesday
and every visiting knight was given a
most cordial welcome ere he alighted
from the train.
The lodge begun work in the after
noon on giving orders to eleven tand.-
dates. A recess was taken at 7 O. clock
to partake of a banquet prepared by
the good wives and daughters of the
fraternity At 8 O'Clock a throng of
perhaps two hundred repaired to the
Hester school building where a most
elegant menu was spread. Beautiful
girls and lovely women did the honors
of the table and every one at the bar
quet table seemed to be in happy
frame of mind.
AS the last course was being served,
DR.. A. II. Bays arose. The Doctor is
always a commanding figure, but he
never appeared TO a better advantage
than on this occasion. His white suit
gave him unusual distinction. The
Doctor felicitated on the occasion and
begun to call for short talks. Each
speaker struck a fortunate key and
pleased his auditors.
The following made speeches:
Messrs. Viii Joiner of Memphis, G..
D. Brown of Water Valley, R. NJ.
Rombuger of Winona, and Hon. T. U.
Sisson of Winona Every speaker con-
graduated their Grenada brethren on
the fact that the ladies were present.
After the banquet work was resumed
in the temple. 1t was a splendid occa-
sion.

Our community has in Gods inscrut-
able providence sustained a great loss.
This splendid citizen, magnanimous,
generous, loving-hearted, public spir-
tied, is no more. There is scarcely a
man of us who will be missed, when
the summons come, more than dear
"Old Max" as we were used lovingly
to call him. Always ready with his
kind heart and purse to fly to the aid
Of the distressed and needy, full of
good, kind and encouraging words to
the disconsolate, an optimistic believer
in the good that is somewhere in every
one, he was a source of inspiration to
the poor fellow who was down, and a
staff to lean upon him would rise.
The community has lost a valued citi-
zen, his family has lost a devoted hus-
band, brother and father, and | have
lost my friend.
Rest in peace Max-you have done
well.

DAIRY INDUSTRY.
Report of Department of
Agriculture.

According to the last year book OF
the Department of Agriculture, there
are q, 72O, 900 milch cows in the United
States, ana these are worth S7O2, 945, =
100000. The magnitude of the indus
try can, perhaps, be best understood
when it is considered that these cows
produce yearly about 81, 200, 900, 900
worth of dairy products.
There is no other branch of diversi-
fled agriculture so important to the
progress of community. The fertility
of the soil can best be maintained by
the liberal use of barnyard manure and
the dairy herd not only make this pos
. sible, but dairylng is also more remun-
erative than other branches of farming
when properly carried on.
Dairying has made wonderful pro
xress since the advent of the modern
creamery and the consumer of butter
has not only been benefited by being
furnished more wholesome and palat-
able article of food, but the wife in
the farm home has been relieved of
drudgery incident to making butter on
the farm. Where formerly the cream
was ripened and churned into butter
under condition not conducive to fine
quality in the finished product and in
the majority of cases by unskilled
hands, now the most of the milk or
cream Is delivered to a modern cream
ery where conditions are suited to the
purpose of making butter. and the re-
suit has been a wonderful improve
ment in the quality Of our dairy pro-
ducts. AS the quality has improved,
consumption has increased and the pro-
gress of dairying has been remarkable
during the past decade.
The perpetuity of the country's
great ness depends upon increasing the
production of farm products from year
to year, a result which not only fur
nishes our people with food, but
maintains the prosperity Of our
farming commuHties. Increase in pro-
duction can only come through i'm
proved methods of agriculture and soil

MAX GINSBURCER
PASSES AWAY
Dies in q st. Louis Hos
pit0t. His Death q
Great Loss to the COM
nattnlty. Big Hearted.

Major Max Ginsbupger died at Jew,
ish hospital in St. Louis last Sunday
evening at O'Clock and his remains
were brought to Memphis and Inferred
Tuesday morning. Mr.. Gihsburger had
undergone an operation in which an alb
scess was removed from his bladder II
was thought at first that the operation
was going to be success but complica-
tions arose that made recovery impos-
sible.
Mr.. Ginsburger was born in Louisville,
KY. in 1S49. He came to Grenada in
1866 and for number of years was a
part of the household of Mr.. Vile, his
uncle. After Mr.. Wile's death. he was
manager for the firm of |. Vile. his
aunt Later on it was Ginsburger &
Vile (Sam Wile), which firm was sue
ceeded by Max Ginsburger. He has long
been an important business factor in the
community and it would appear that
his taking away at this time was almost
an irrsparable loss. As supply merch-
ant, he naturally came in contact with
the less favored in life but ne had the
confidence and the esteem Of his trade
TO remarkable degree. 1t has been
frequently said of him that he was nev-
er known TO press man that owed him
who would do even half way right. In
deed he will be missed by many a little
farmer and by many colored people
who regarded him as refuge when in
financial straits Besides his mercantile
business, he was vice-president and di-
rector ir the Grenada Bank and had
large holdings in real estate
He was big hearted man and loved
to do his fellows kindness He was
liberal contributor to charity and was
steadfast in his observances of the Jew
ish faith. The town will miss him and
the years to come will number him a
mong Grenada's stalwart citizens. Gen
uine sorrow is felt over his demise
which will cause the angels to record
many tear, unobserved here. When
he left Grenada, he was naturally ap-
prehensive about results. He said to
his attorney in discussing his business
affairs, that he wanted his business
continued and the people who owed
him given every opportunity and plenty |
Of time to pay. This but emphasizes
his altruistic character.
He is survived by devoted wife and |
a daughter, about fifteen years old, and
one sister, besides other relatives. The |
writer feels his loss as personal one
and mingles his tears with those of the
relatives.

The Word That Often Wins.

Here's to the unspoken word: 1t never
starts quarrel,
1t never hurts a friend, and it never
does wrong;
1t never brings unhappiness; it ever
wins the laurel
That victors wear who curb their speech
and grow through silence strong.
Here's to the unspoken word: It has

At home, in school, in business it is a

Patience walks beside it, love goes hand
in hand with it,
And brave and happy are souls that
hold to it in need.
