INQUIRIES ABOUT CATTLE.
Possibilities of Mississippi in This Line
of Industry.

Jackson.-Cattle raising III Mississippi
is attracting great deal of attention
from other states, and Indications are
there Will be considerable more develop
ment in this branch of agriculture in
the next few months than has marked
the progress of this industry in several
years.
Several letters have been received in
this city recently from st. Louis. Chi
cago and other places asking for infor-
nation on cattle and hog raising in Mis-
sissippi, the cost of land, rate of taxa
tion and other information on this sub
ject. These letters are from men who
desire to locate in the South and engage
in cattli raising, because they regard it
a good money maker.
Inquiries are also made about the cat
tie tick, which is rapidly being eradi-
Gated from the state, railroad rates, wa
ter and pasturage. The letters indicate
that the writers are interested in Mis-
sissippi as cattle raising state, and the
fact that the cattle tick is being eradi-
Gated and the entire state will, in an
other year or two, be entirely above the
federal quarantine line, viii add much to
the value OF Mississippi-raised cattle.
This work is progressing well, and in adj
dition t those counties where it is be
ing conducted at present, there are many
other counties that want it.
Good reports are being received from
those counties where the work Is being
carried on, and Gov. Noel thinks the
money appropriate for this work by the
legislature is funds well spent.

PLAN FIGHT ON wEEvIL.
Lowndes County Farmers Prepare for rhe
Coming of the Pest.

Columbus.-Tho Lowndes county anti
boil weevil convention met here Wednes-
day and was attended by throng of
farmers and business men, who heard
addresses upon how 10 meet the attack
when the pest reaches this section. Last
fall the yeevil was as far west as Mont
gomery county and as far south of this
section as Newton county. As the pest
migrate. only from the first of August
until the first frost. and then makes its
appearance in new territory when the
cotton commences blooming, it is prob
lematical as to whether this section
will be invaded this coming summer. In
the event the weevil does get as far east
as Lowndes county this summer, this
convention was called to discuss such
questions as would be necessary to ham
die the situation in the event il does.
Addresses were made by r. s. Wilson,
demonstration branch of the United
States agricultural department, with
headquarters in Columbus; Mr. Howard,
agent in the south part of the state;
j. G. Weatherly, secretary of the Column
bus Business League; w. l.. Henderson,
land and industrial agent OF the Mobile
and Ohio and Southern railway in Mis-
sssippi of Mobile, Ala; Warren c. Me-
Clure, and others who are well versed
in farming pursuits.

CITY IS BLAMED
FOR FIRE DEATHS
MASS MEETING IN NEW YORK
ADOPTS RESOLUTION.
Meeting Receives With Applause Con
demnation of City Government by
Prof. Seligman.

New York -" Administrative ineft-
cheney" as the direct cause of the Tri-
angle Shirtwaist Company fire, where the
lives of more than 40 women, girls and
men were sacrificed, was charged at the
citizens mass meeting by Prof. L. A. r.
Seligman, of Columbia University. The
tremendous throng which filled every
seat in the house interrupted this fear
less statement with braves and cheers
and continued applause. When Comp
troller William A. Prendergast, few
minutes later, spoke in support OF Prof.
Seligmans remarks. there was a second
demonstration.
This public meeting, which was called
by IA citizens committee, at the instIga-
tion of the Women's Trade Union League
and Miss Anne Morgan, daughter OF j.
T.. Morgan, was for the announced pur-
pose of devising future security for
workers and to prevent similar disasters.
With almost unanimous accord the
speakers evaded any attempt to place
the direct responsibility, but when Prof
Seligman suddenly branched out in his
discussion of the economic side of the
matter to declare that this city admin
istration lis how weltering i'll chaos,
and a moment later termed the condl-
tion that of administrative impotence,
the large audience was aroused to re-
markable demonstration of approval.
These were the first statements that had
brought them out of their seats.

PLANS FOR A CONVENTION
Land Development Association to Held
Meeting.

Jackscn.-The annual convention of
the Mississippi Land Development Asso-
citation will be held this year III South
Mississippi, probably Mt Hattiesbur9 or
Gulfport.
This l. the decision reached at meet
ing OF the executive committee.
Believing that the promotion OF the
growth and progress OF South Missis-
sippi, especially in settling the eutover
pine lands. is one of the states most inn
portant problems, the committee deemed
it advisable to have the annual eonven-
tion in that section of the state. The
gathering will be held on June 21 and
22 and the committee is now open to
proposals from the business organiza-
tions of Gulfport and Hattiesburg.
The finances of the association arc in
iirst-class shape, some good publicity
work is being accomplished through the
managers office, and a program will be
prepared for the annual meeting that
viii be OF exceptional interest.

MODEL AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL.
Expen1es of Students Less Than 81
for the Term.

Tackson.-Prot L. c. Bradford, prin-
cipal OF the Acorn County Agricultural
High School, has what is considered by
leading educators the model agricultural
high school of the state, and he is get
ting good results
This school has been conducted eco
nomically. and the expenses for each
student. includent board. will not aver
age 81 for the term. He has, through
cooperation OF the students kept the
expenses down to a low figure, while
some of the students work Saturdays for
farmers near the school, earning more
than enough money to meet their board
and other expenses each month.
The demonstration farm in connec-
tion with the school is being worked
by the students The hours are divided
between work in the field, studies in the
school room and recreation, and the
students are taking a great deal of in
terest in the work.
Twenty-Five county agricultural high
schools have been established in the
state since the legislature of 1910 en-
acted law authorizing them, which
shows the people of the state appre-
cate the value of this form of educa-
ton Not only do the students make
good progress in their studies. but they
are learning how to farm, and also
horticulture.
The principals of these schools are
TRYING to arrange a uniform course of
study, and at the close of the school
year some action will be taken along
this line. A committee was appointed
some time ago to work out a course, and
this committee will report at the State
Teachers Association, which meets here
in MAY.

CONFERENCE OF EDUCATORS.
Discussions to Be of Especial Interest to
County Superintendent.

Jackson.-State Superintendent OF
Education Powers is sending ont cir
cular letter calling attention to the four
teenth conference on education in the
South, which will meet at Jacksonville,
Fla, April 10 and 30. This conference
is one OF the most important gatherings
of Southern educators of the year, and
Mississippi will be well represented.
The theme of the conference is the
better adaptation OF education to life,
and especially to the rural life OF the
South. What is done by some other
countries will be told by the United
States ministers to Denmark and the
Danish minister to the United States,
both of whom have made special study
OF the remarkable work for the adapta-
tion of education of life in Denmark by
the Swiss minister to the United States,
who VIII tell what Switzerland has done
in three-quarters OF a century under the
inspiration of Pestalozzi.

LAND REDEMPTIONS.

pie did land office business" during
the past month, breaking the record for
land redemptions. The sum collected
during the past month on land redemp-
tions alone amounted to $3.50, and nearly
all of this sum came from the two coast
counties of Harrison and Jackson. For
the past few years a good deal of land
that has been considered yalueless in the
coast counties has been allowed to re-
vert to the state, but the people of Har-
rison county particularly seem to have
come to the conclusion that they were
making a mistake and are now Fastening
to redeem them, that county alone pay
ing in for the month of February the
sum of S517 in redemption fees.

HEAVY DEMAND FOR FERTILIZERS
Sales Far Beyond Expectations of Mill
Managers

Jackson.-Eleavy rains, the usual ac-
compartment of the vernaI equinox, have
been general over Mississippi during
the past few days, and have brought
about marked Improvement of farming
prospects.
In all sections OF the state there was
an urgent need OF rain to get fhe soil
in proper condition for spring plant
ing, and it is expected that there will
be unusual activity in the agricultural
districts during the week.
One OF the most significant features
OF the outlook is the phenomenal de-
naud Tor fertilizers. Managers Of the
principal mills say that sales have been
TAR in excess Of their expectations, and
IN some instances they are unable to fill
all orders offered
In i>cordance with their annual GUS
tom, niill managers made preparations
Tor the season IN accordance with adj
vices received from their local agents,
showing the probable acreage and char
acter Of crops 10 be planted this year.
but it now appears that all of these
estimates were exceedingly low. In
some counties sales and deliveries have
sent in excess OF last year, and the fer
tilizer plants had figured ON practically
the same consumption as in 1910.
I his gives rather conclusive evidence
that the farmers Of Mississippi are not
only planning a substantial increase Of
acreage, but that they also have plenty
oil confidence IN the general outlook;
that they are not pessmistic or despond-
ent over the boil weevil, and other new
problems with which they are CON
ironted.
Thus far there have been no com
plants OF scarcity of cotton seed for
planting purposes. The oil mills have re-
served abundant supplies for this pur
pose, and will be able to fill all orders
unless a second planting should become
necessary later in the season.
The demand for improved varieties of
corn is very general, largely due to the
campaign OF education on corn culture
that has been under way for the past

REAL BLESSING TO MANKIND
Easter Observance Means Much For
the Welfare OF the Christian
World

This is the time of Easter. the NOV
able feast of the church by which all
the other movable feasts are arranged
in the calendar, the accepted anniver-
sary of the central fact in Christianity
and Christendom, the most joyful of
all observances TO the pious heart.
To understand its spirit and the
uumberless customs and usages that
have grown up around IL notice must
be taken of it's origin and character.
The crucifixion OF Christ plunged HIS
followers into despair, and this de-
SPAR heightened their JOY when he
rose again. In like manner, ever since
the self denial OF Lent and the solem-
mites OF Good Friday. increase the
cheerfuIness and gayety OF Easter. In
some countries and at one period OF
the church's history this revulsion OF
feeling took the form Of extravaganza
and even leyity.

Not only were the ceremonials and

to recall
There were long ages In which tho
observance OF Easter was confined 10
the Catholic and Episcopal churches.
while other Christian bodies viewed IL
with dislike or on principle condemned
IL. The Puritans In particular alb
horred IL as something idolatrous and
sacrilegions. Bot little by little this

CONGRESS- MEETS
IN EXTRA SESSION
CHAMP CLARK OF MISSOURI NAMED
AS SPEAKER.
ProTressives Maintenance Own Organize
tion-Harmon and Bryant Present
at Opening Of House.

Washington.-The Sixty-seeond con-
gress met in extraordinary session to-
day. What the session will bring forth
in the way of legislation, or when il will
adjourn were matters on which no one
cared TO venture an opinion.
The Democrats took full possession of
the house and put Champ Clark of Mis-
souri, in the speakers chair. In hi,
speech accepting the honor, Mr.. Clark
warned the Democrats that the eyes OF
the country were upon them; that the
party was on trial, and that il had an
opportunity for the first time in sixteen
years to prove its worthiness for a still
higher expression of confidence on the
part of the American people.
Throughout the day the shadows of
the coming presidential fight lowered
about the capitol, and there is no ques-
ton that maneuvers for political sdran-
tage will play an important part in the
affairs of each house during the next
few months.
William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska
and Gov. Harmon of Ohio were promi-
nent figures on the floor OF the house
during the opening ceremonies and both
shared in the Democratic demonstrations
that marked the day.
The senate's opening was sedate A.
usual. And while the leadership of the
upper branch of the new congress re-
mains in Republican hands. the change
in the personnel of those assuming
command was almost a marked as in
the house.
Republican leaders of the senate have
announced that there shall be no tariff
legislation at the extra session. Tariff
revision is included in plans of the
Democrats.
This difference of opinion promises
sooE to bring the two branches into
sharp conflict. A legislative deadlock
Is freely predicted, and the length OF
the session seems now TO depend upon
how long the Democratic house will con
tinue to lombard the Republican senate
with general legislation bills.
The Republican insurgents in the
house indicated their purpose of con-
tinuing to act Independently By de-
Ginning to vote for Mr.. Mann for speaker
and by giving their support to Repre-.
sentative Cooper of Wisconsin.

MAY CUT PRICES Of

SUPREME COURT RULES ON fARK

Justice Holmes Believes There is 1Ten-
dency to Overvalue Benefits
Competition
tCopyrtght. SID

WashIngton.-Thea attempt TO put he
ban OH "cut rates" in proprietary M l.
cines received the disapproval of the
supreme court of the United States.
That tribunal declined in an opinion by
Justice Hughes TO give it aid TO Snch
an attempt on the ground that 1T Fould
afford the manufacturers of medicine ar
unlawful monopoly.
The question of the right OF a manu-
facturer to control the price of his artI
Gle to the consumer arose in a suit begun
by the DIR Miles Medical Company OF
Elkhart, Ind, against wholesale dealer
in medicines in Cincinnati, John ID. Park
q Sons Company.
The manufacturer sought to enjoin
the Cincinnati firm from inducing deal
ers who had procured medicines from
the manufacturer TO sell in violation OF
u contract with the manufactures ami
from selling medicines procured In this
way at cut rates"
Justice Lurton, then a judge in the
circuit court, announced the opinion OF
the ciruit court OF appeals OF the Sixth
circuit denying the injunction sought.
de said that while the manufacturer OF
medicines under a secret formula had
night to monopoly of manufacture
until the formula was discovered by fait
means, yet courts could not insure him
the unnecessary monopoly OF con-
trolling the price to tho consumer.
