when he could tighten the bur-
dens of those at home. Death
at any age is sad, but it seems
to strike the hardest blow when
it falls on young life just de-
veloping into manhood. Malone
was a noble specimen of a
promising young man. He was
called from this world while yet
in the yigor of youth, but even
at this early age he showed those
priceless traits Of character that
win the esteem Of all. He was
kind and generous to his school
mates, obedient and respectful
to his teachers, attentive to the
duties Of home. One OF the
evidences OF his nobleness of
heart was his devotion for home
and his mother,

Obituary.

Mrs. Mary Ann Baily (nee
Dawson,) was born February
II, 1840, and died January %
1911, age 70 years, Ii months,
II days. In the year 1864 she
was given in marriage to Mr.. E.
Bailey, who passed away some
years ago at a ripe old age. For
about thirty-five years she was a
consistent member Of the M. E.
Church, South, and a faithful
servant Of her Lord. In her
sickness she manifested a large
degree of patience and resigna-
ton, and her death was peaceful.
The writer conducted the funeral
service, and her body rests in
the cemetery at Guntown, Miss.
She, no doubt, fell asleep in
Jesus" to awake ION the happy
golden shore" where the
beautiful river flows from the
throne Of God" and happy
hearts culver with the melody
of peace. While she has been
taken, her beautiful Christian
life will not soon be FORGOTTEN.
and her good influence will live
on to bless others. Her going is
an irreparable loss to the chill

Letter From Florida.


Sweetwater, Fla, Jan. 16. 1911.
Editor of the Tupelo Journal and its
Many Friends;
Doubtless you will be surprised
to know that am down here on
this narrow strip of land between
the Atlantic and the Gulf; down
here where there is no winter.
will now tell you some things
about my trip and this country.
En- route / passed through sew
eral beautiful towns. the most
note worthy of which was Birnl-
ingham, Ala, Columbus, Ca,
and Jacksonville, Fla. st. Aug
ustine, Fla, is the oldest town
in the United States, having
been founded in 1900. The old
est house now in the United
States is in this city, having
been built of shells in 1916. The
beautiful rivers and lakes of this
state abound with fish Of many
yarities, and the forests with
game, in fact, it is the sports
mans paradise" After leaving
Jacksonville. I came south about
$50 miles, to near the extreme
end of the peninsula. All along
the way we gazed upon the beau
tiful green orange trees loaded
with golden fruit, and the winter
gardens full of almost every va
riety of vegetables. Beans, Eng
lish peas, cabbage and other veg
etables are now being marketed
and are bringing fancy prices.
Peaches are as large as a mans
thumb. Apples will not grow
here. Pears do extremely well.
| find many enterprising people
here. In this respect it is quite
different to whatit was several
years ago. Then they seemed to
be seeking an easy, good time,
and were contented with such
things as they had, now they are
trying to develop the many re-
sources here. The distilling of
the pine gum for turpentine, and
mining of phosphate are great
industries. Unimproved land is
cheap, both in price and quality.
LIZ any of your readers think that
the only thing to do here is to
clear the land and cultivate it,
they are very much mistaken.
It is worth in the first place,
from $25 to $50 per acre to put
it in a state of cultivation. 1t is
indeed amusing to see a fellow
dig up Palmetto all day and make
but little sign, and there is no
such thing as cultivating the land
until it is all taken up. Then in
addition to this, the pine and oak
timber must be taken off, and
the land thoroughly plowed and
fertilized before it will grow
anything to advantage. Improv-
ed land is very high. but if
man has the money to pay for it,
the oranges and other tropical
fruits and the winter garder 8
will soon pay it all back.

Notice to Subscribers.

We find it necessary to again
call the attention of our subscrib-
ers to the fact that many of
them are still in arrears for the
paper. We have carried a heavy
subscription list through the dull
months and incurred consider
able expense in doing so. The
time of the year has arrived for
settling all outstanding obliga-
tions, and in order that we may
meet ours, our friends mus.
come to our relief by paying
what is due us. We hope that
this appeal will be all that is
necessary to bring the matter to
your mind, and we expect an
early remittance from all of you.

year hence.

Industrial Agent Taylor, of the
Mobile & Ohio road was here
Tuesday and left quite a lot of
literature to be distributed among
our farmers with the hope that
the articles contained therein on
the question of how to overcome
the boil weevil may be read by
the farmers and the suggestions
of experts be favorably consid-
cred. The time for the appear
ance of the destructive little pest
in this territory is dangerously
near and we should accept the
statement of the experts that he
will surely come as a fact and
prepare to give him battle. At
Laurel a concerted effort has
been made to fight the weevil by
the business men of the place.
The government was asked to
send down an expert whose
whole time could be spent in the
immediate territory and the
merchants of the place have re-
solved not to advance any farm
err who will not agree to follow
the methods of culti-
yation prescribed by the Depart
ment of Agriculture. Cotton can
be grown in spite of the weevil,
but the question of seed, cultiva-
tisn and planting time must be
taken into consideration to sue
coed. The old slipshod way will
not do and after he arrives more
methods must be en-
ployed. We have a number of
pamphlets which we would be
glad to have our farmer friends
,all and get. Begin now to post
so that you may prof
t by the experience and investi-
ofpeople who have given
he matter a full investigation. 5.
