QUICKLY ANSWERED CALL.
Mississippian Hurries to Washing
to to Take Job.

Washington, May pa Missis-
sippian, from Smith county, named
Burns, beats the record made by
Cincinna.us in answering the call
of his Country. The old chap, who
got fame by his fondness of stick
ing to the plow, drove his horses
to the barn before he went to Rome
to take the job offered him. Not
so with Burns OF Burns Station,
Smith county, Miss. For aught he
knows his horses are still in the
cotton field where he was working
when he received a message tell
ing him he had a $i200 year job
waiting for him. Mr. Witherspoon
was greatly astonished when young
Burns arrived here about forty hours
after the message had been Sent. To
the Congressman rapid fire of
questions the young man said he
had hiked for the railroad station,
eighteen miles away, as soon as
the message came, leaving the hors-
es in the field. He wanted to study
law in Washington at night, so he
took no chances on having some
fellow slip in ahead of him for that
lob, even if it is the humble task
of running an electric elevator.

Exports of binder twine in the
nine months ending with March
amounted to 4 million dollars worth
in value, and of other twine, one
half million. The countries of des-
tination of the twine exports are not
shown in the monthly publications.,
but the figures for the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1910, show exports
of binder twine to Canada as III
million dollars in value; Russia a
little over / million dollars; Argen..
tina little less than 1 million dol
lars, and England about one-third
of million dollars in value.
Barbed wire exports for the nine
months ending with March amount
ed to 3 f-3 million dollars in value,
while other wire amounted to 32-i
million dollars in value. The barb.
ed wire exports, which go of course
almost exclusively for the use of
agriculturists, amounted in the fis-
cal year 1910, to 41-3 million dol
lars in value, of which nearly 4 miT-
lion dollars worth went to Canada:
over one-half million dollars worth
went to Mexico; nearly 1-2 million
dollars to Argentina; nearly i-2 mil
lion dollars worth to British South
Africa; about 1-3 million to Cuba:
and about like amount to Brazil.
Of the Is million dollars worth
of oil cake and oil cake meal eA-
ported in the months ending with
March (about equally divided be-
tween cotton seed and linseed)

TOBACCO RAISING.
A Bountful Experiment Says the
CIarksdale Register.

We note that the Mississippi pen-
ttentiafy is engaged in an expert
ment on the raising of tobacco, and
that 100 acres of land have been
planted to this Crop.
Whether this will have any bet
ter results than other forms Of ag-
riculture, as a means of helping
the state pay the prison bills, is a
question.
Tobacco raising is one of the
worst CANDLES in all agriculture.
It is dependent on the weather To
far greater degree than most
crops. Dry seasons often do a great
deal of damage, and after the to-
bacco is cut and cured the wealth
er has to be just right, or it sweats
on the poles to which the fragile
plant is hung for curing.
Great care is required also In
handling the plants after they ara
cut. Or the fragile leaves are brok-
en-. When you consider the num-
erous insect pests from being sure
thing.
ANYTHING in the way Of diversl-
fication of industry is good, III SO
for for as new crops can successfully
be taken up. Mississippi had I'M
1909 only 100 acres of tobacco, and
whether it is worth while for us 10
get into the procession along at
The tail end. we hardly know.
The tobacco market is at the
mercy of the trust, and the bueyrs
have things about their own way
We understand from the tobacco
growing states that until the grow
ers can get together can combine TO
maintain prices, they can hardy
get dollar for dollar back for any
big state revenue on this peniten-
tiary proposition. but it may be
worth while as an experiment alone.

cate countries for each of the

another publication of sthe Bureau
covering the exports for the full
fiscal year periods, shows, mowers

Germany; over one-half million
dollars worth to Argentina; about
one-half million dollars worth to
the United Kingdom; nearly one
half million dollars worth to Aus
tralia: and about one-third of a
million dollars worth to Canada.
Of the 6i-2 million dollars worth
of plnws and cultivators exported
in tie fiscal year 1910, 2 million dol
lars worth went to Argentina; a lit
tie over 1 1-2 million dollars worth
went to Canada; about One-third OF
million dollars worth to Russia
in Europe: a quarter of million
dollars went to Australia and New
leland, and the remainder SCATTER
ed widely.
FertlllZefS exported amOunteu III
the nine months ending with March
to 71-2 million dollars in value;
against a little over 6 million in
the corresponding months OF last
year. Of this group of fertilizers
i amounting to 7a-2 million dollars
worth in the nine months ending
with March 1911, phosphate rock
ground, or unground, not acidulated,
amounted to 6i-2 million dollars
in value, and the "All other" group
little over one million dollars.
Germany is by far the largest taker
of this class of our exports, the
value of the exports of fertilizers
to that country being in the nine
months in question practically 2
million dollars; the United King
dom less than 1 million; and France
a little over one-half million.
