OUR HARDWOOD FORESTS.
Only Limited Area to Supply the
Constantly Growing Demand.

1t will be remembered that there
are no hardwoods on the Pacific
Coast. Except in a comparatively
small area in southeastern Missouri
and Arkansas the hardwoods are not
known west of the Mississippi River,
while in the States north of the
Ohio, where oak was formerly album
dant, there is none remaining to-
day. In cct the principal source of
supply for these woods is the very
limited area in the higher mountains
of western North Carolina, part of
Virginia, West Virginia, eastern
Tennessee and southeastern Ken
lucky, while from fifty times this
entire area in the remaining States
of the Union the demand is constant
ly increasing.
Forest conditions in the Cumber-
land Mountains are far better than
in other portions of the United
States. The rainfall is ample to Sc
cure most rapid growths. The soil
has not been eroded to such an eX-
tent as to make renewals difficult.
An abundance of low growing
shrub and heritage keep the soil
cool and moist and maintain soft fer
tility, while much of the region con-
tains fine stand of the more valua-
BILE oaks, hickories, poplar, hemlock
and walnut. The latter can be
quickly secured by supplying the
seed.

The Apple Cure for Booze Habit.

A Quotation.
DR.. Samuel Bailey, of Mount Ayr,
Iowa, says the use of apples IS an
article of diet will decrease and ulti-
mately abate the appetite for AGO
holic stimu,ants. He tells us that
the habitudl topper is rarely lover
of apples and this he attributes to
the fact that there is peculiar com
binatlon in the fruit, in the acid or
in the peculiar chemical elements of
it that allays the appetite produced
by the use of liquor. Moreover he
claims that the desire to smoke or
chew tobacco is limited by eating APP
pies. But he has no doubt whatever
about the effectiveness of apples as
an antidote in cases of alcoholism.
Il am thoroughly convinced" he
says, that any man who is lover
of whiskey and is in a condition when
he thinks he must have a drink, if he
will eat an apple before he takes the
drink, will find that his appetite for
liquor has been materially lessened,
if not entirely abated for the time. "

Good Roads Sentiment A Cheering Sign

timent strengthens and the eau e

Mans Nature Graves Society.

Meridian DAILY Star.
Ask any young man or woman why
he or she left the country for the
town and eight times out OF ten the
answer will be: 81 wanted society"
Man is a gregarious animal. He
hates solitude, and the monotony of
farm life and work and its isolation
is the explanation of the fact that so
many of the inmates of our insane
asylums, especially women, come
from country districts. We natur-
ally expect that country life should
be the most wholesome in the world,
and it is, under proper conditions;
but a large class of country people
are much more ignorant of the art of
taking care of their health than any
of the city dwelers. This ignorance
or indifference, is the explanation of
the prevalence of certain diseases in
the country of the epidemics of ty-
phold, malaria or pneumonia which
are so common. 1t is not that the
locality is unwholesome. Under
proper conditions almost all places
are hea!thful. But it is the result of
the ignorance and carelessness of the
people themselves. Indifference is
the root o Lany of the ills of rural
life. 1t affects the social and intel
lectual life of a large class CT farmers
as it does their bodily.

Alcohol and Tuberculosis.

Dr. Jacques Bertillon, the chief Of
the fingerprint department of the
French police, has published an ar
ticle on the connection between al
cohol and tuberculosis. DR.. Bertillon
says that of the causes which in
France favor the development of
tuberculosis the most important is the
alcohol in beer and spirits. He de-
clares, however, that the best enemy
of tuberculosis is wine
In the % departments which form
the northern parts of France, where
cider, beer, spirits-especially brandy
are much drunk the deaths caused
by consumption were 230 per 100000
inhabitants in 1906, while the proper.

Of France, where wine is the favorite

"ln my Judgment the fourteenth
amendment only conferred the suf-

amendment is the more troublesome
of the two, as it expressly foroids a
state from DENYING the right to vote

source of untold injury to the south
ern states, and are beginning to be
felt at some places in the north,
where the negroes arr the balance

BE careful in selecting the man TO
vote for. Induce some good man TO
run-some leveheaded and sensible
business farmer who has conducted
his own affairs successfully. Don't
be taken in with lot of promises OF
economy" as a sole issue. Econo-
my is all right and commendable, but
there is false economy which is
worse than extravaganza of the rank
est sort.
1t you never spend any money or
labor for repairs, your house will rot
down over your head. If you spend
any money for help, if you have
pitched big crop, you are not going
to gel the proper returns. If you
never spend any money for improve
ments in your county or your beat,
you are retrograding and going to
decay. Economy is the judicious ex-
penditure of money and getting the
full value of every cent expended
not in total cessation of outlay.
Watch out for the candidates for
Supervisor, and if no good represen-
tative man shows an inclination to
come out, let some of his neiyhbors
pull him out and show him that it is
his duty to answer the call and
serve. Then elect him.

Wide And Deep Reading Incumbent On
Editors.
Arlington (Tex.) journal.

Arlington (Tex,) Journal.
The making of newspapers has
not changed except to minor methods
from those OF the past. 1t is still the
highest of all professions. 1t calls
for the widest reading, the most ac-
curate scholarship, the most thor
ough culture, the intimate acquaint-
ance with the facts of science, the
deepest thinking, the profoundest
knowledge of men and measures-in
short it is, when rightly lived up to
and entered with the appreciation of
its privileges and duties, the great
est and most learned of all profess
ions, law and medicine not excepted.
And in tie making of newspaper all
of the avenues of human learning
must be traveYsed, all channels OF
human interest must be nnvlgated,
all pathways of statesman ship must
be walked. all mountains and valleys
OF public interest must be explored.
And to this effort will come the
sweetest reward that can come to
man, that of hearing his conscience
say: well done, good and faithful
servant.
For, profession as is journalism,
Marse Henry Wattcrson is right in
saying it is also an art. | pays to
be clean, to be truthful, to be accu-
rate, to be studious and give your
readers the benefit of much wide
deep close reading and study.

cal denunciatory denial and offer to
publish in the Issue by Vardaman, -
the Herald would request that THE
PEOPLE by whom Vardaman is to
be sustained or forsaken and not the
Jackson News, which is a declared
arch-enemy of his of years standing
would consider that while as Gov
ernor, Vardaman might have viola
ted the letter of the law in this par
ticular instance. (about which there
may be if really used, extenuating
circums tances that will now be de-
yeloped,) he certainly did not violate
the spirit Of the law the motive for
which was to prevent the corrupting
of the officials of Mississippi by rail
roads in the gifts of passes, for its a
matter of admitted present history
and was equally sc all during Varda-
mans administration, that he and
tie G. q S. |. in all it's qualifications
were bitterly opposed to one another,
the fight continueing to this day
with unremitting bitterness Of which
the furnishing of the Jackson News
the pass is but another move of that
infuriated railroad corporation to
encompass the defeat of a man who
has boldly stood out against them in
their program of negating the will of
the people of Mississippi. The same
law which the News publishes that
technically incriminates Ex-Gov.
Vardaman also reaches the G. & s. T.
Il. r. whose officials and conductor
were culpable in issueing and collect
ing the pass, but note that the News
says not o word in structure of the
GANDSI for their breach of the law,
which silence indicates where the
sympathies of that paper might lie
in the corporation battles now con-
vulslng the old Magnolia State.
