While California has Luther
Burbank, who, by the process
known as ross-breeding, has pro-
duced wonderful fruits and flow
ers, Kinds county, Miss, has a citi-
zen, Mr.. Easton G. Jones, who is
developing the cotton plant and
has already performed some mar
velous feats with corn. It APP
pears that Mr.. Jones, whose farm
is three miles from Jackson, has
been experimenting with corn for
fourteen years and gets from six
to fourteen ears to the stalk and a
vie Id that runs from $50 to 200
bushels to the acre.
In recent years he has been cross
breeding okra with short staple
cotton, and it is claimed that he
has succeeded in producing long
staple of the finest texture and en-
durance. We are told that last
year he planted forty acres in the
cross-bred cotton and gathered a
crop of ninety-four bales. Mr..
Jones is quoted as saying that
sorne of the land produced three
bales to the acre, and he feels that
ne has lost money if he does not
get at least two bales off the poor
est kind of land.-Daily States.

The Iberville South says: Every
man elected to Office in Louisiana
is a ringster. That, at least, is
what the discarded and disgrunt-
led politicians say who want to get
into Office. What a funny thing
it is that the people do not elect
the patriots to Office instead of the
ringsters. These patriots ought
to step out in the open and offer
their services to the dear people,
for whom they feel SO deeply. 1t
might be little amusing to see
what the dear people really think
of them. 1t is easy for them to
demonstrate their popularity with
the people by giving the people
one whack at them.

quite SO efficient as tile, very good
results can be obtained by what is
known as pole drains. These are
constructed by digging a ditch,
such as would be needed for tile,
and about the same depth, say
from two to three feet. The deep
or the ditch the further apart they
can be for efficiency. A ditch an
average depth of three feet, would
easily drain so feet upon each side,
so these could be placed 100 feet
apart, After digging the ditch
with as much fall as possible, then
lay a continuous line ofgreen pine
poles in each side of the bottom
OF the ditch and another so as TO
partially cover, but not fill the
space between. If available, place
a few inches of dead grass or straw
on top OF these poles, then fill the
earth back in the ditch ON top of
the poles. Such drains, costing.

Seldom has this community
been SO inexpressibly shocked as
when on Sunday evening last the
word was passed around that Mr..
Will H. Woods was dead.
While Mr.. Woods had only been
a resident of Jena for a few
months, yet he had universally en-
deared himself, both as a model
citizen and business man, to every
one in the community, and in his
taking off we all feel that vacan-
cy has been occasioned, which will
indeed, be hard to fill.
Mr.. Woods had been i'll only
about ten days, and while it was
generally known that his condition
was critical, his multitude OF
friends and business acquaintan-
ces constantly hoped and believed
that he would recover; an all-wise
Creator, however, ruled otherwise.
1t would seem that this blow
falling upon the loving and de-
voted wife in the early months OF
a happy married life was all the
punishment and sorrow a most
gracious. God could, or would, in
flict, yet when the sad funeral cor
tege had arrived at Montgomery,
La, the old home of the deceased,
where interrment was to take
place, the darling. baby of the al
ready grief-stricken mother was
taken by Him who has said "suffer
little children to come unto Me-
ETC., and thus the poor wife and
mother has a double burden of loss
of loved ones to weigh her down.
The Times, in conjuntion with
the entire community, offers deep
and lasting sympathy to the heart
broken wife and mother and sor-
rowing relatives in the inconsol-
able loss which has befallen them,
and which seems too much for hn-
man frailty to bear.-Jena Timea

Sohoo:house not a Polling Place

Pierre-The county auditor IS up
against a proposition In this county,
in which he has no precedent 10 guide
him 50 far as ne can learn. The mat
ter has eve been tested oUt, and
there is nothing to Indicate what the
courts might rule. The question is the
right of using a school house as q
polling place. 1t is customary to make
such selections in the country pre-
cincts yer the state, and the Hughes
county board has followed the custom
ever since the organization of the
school board. The township of DeGrey
brought a bin to the county of five
dollars for cleaning the school house
after the election. The beard after
considerable discussion allowed three
dollars for the work, but would 90 no
higher.
After the school house in thai pre-
cinct had been selected as the polling
place this year,, the auditor was notih-
ed by the chairman of the school
board that the county could not have
the building for that purpose at the
coming election. The auditor carried
his complaint to the county superin-
tendent, who sustained the school
board. The whole proposition appears
to be a new one so far as can be
learned.
