CLAIBORNE LEADS THE LIST.
First County to Enlist for Tomato Clubs
Next Year.

observation-disclosures county is the
first one of the Mississippi counties to
enroll in the Tomato Club list for the
girls for next year, outside of the two
original counties, Copiah and Lincoln.
The demonstration in those two coun-
ties of the work under the able leader
ship of Miss Susie v. Powell of the
school improvement work of the state
department of education has been so
successful that counties all over the
state are anxious to get in the list and
have the tomato clubs organized for
work among the girls next year. The
organization and work is carried on I'M
der Miss Powelrs direction through the
local teachers, and they in turn are
backed and stimulated by the business
organizations and public spirited indi-
viduals, who arrange for prizes and con-
test to keep up interest among the girls.
The September number of the Educa-
tional Advance will contain the plan o.
organization in detail, and those coun-
ties which want to get organized for
the work next year would do well to
communicate with Miss Powell at Jack
son, at once.
In the work in Copiah and Lincoln
counties has been all that Miss Powell
desired, and it came as a pleasant sur
prise the interest the mothers of the
girls took in the work. At every DEM
onstration nearly every mother was on
hand, and numbers of the little mex
pensive yet effectual canning apparatus
approved by the department of agri-
~
disposed of at actual cost to the inter
ested ladies'.
The display of the Girls Tomato Clubs
at the State Fair will also be an eye
opener to the people. One little miss,
fourteen years old, in Lincoln county,
planted less than a fourth of an acre
in tomatoes, tended and picked them her
self. She never saw q canning outfit
until Miss Powell came and demonstrated
it, use.
Since that time this young lady has
canned some twelve hundred cans of
tomatoes and figures that the remain
ing crop on the vines will make three
hundred additional cans. The United
States department of agriculture has
provided her with attractive labels, lith-
ographed with luscious red tomato on
EACH Also there is place on the label
for her signature. The department fur
nishes the labels free to all who desire
them.
She will be able to sell her output at
ten cents a can, the price for standard
size cans such as hers are. The can
ming outfit cost about $3.50 and the can
very little more. At that rate she will
get returns in the neighborhood of six
hundred dollars an acre.

GREAT DRAIN ON STATE:
One Small Town Sends Over 81, 900 Il
Foreign Houses.

Jackson.-As indicating the extent to
which Mississippians are addicted to the
Email order habit" of sending money
away out of the state to the big con-
Germs of the North and East for goods
which they can purchase at home prac-
tically as cheaply, and at the same time
keep the money in circulation in their
respective communities, the figures of the
postmaster, of Charleston, Tallahatchie
county, are startling.
According to Mr.. William Quarles,
Jr., who holds that office, from. June
80, 1910, to July I, 1911, the staggering
sum of $24, 800 was sent to mail order
houses. This does not include the ex-
press money orders, or the amount sent
through banks and by exchange. These
mediums would augment the amount
half as much again.
Charleston is . little town of not
much over two thousand inhabitants.
and the county surrounding it il not
thickly settled.

NO PAUPER, NO PENSION.
Webster County Board Would Change
Present Laws.

MISUNDERSTANDING that under the
present state pension law and system,
pauperism is made condition precedent
to successful application of veteran
of the Confederate States service for
the modicum of relief which the Missis-
sippi pension laws provide for these
WORTHLESS or their widows, the Webster
county pension board has come forward
with resolution declaring for change
In the law calculated to eliminate that
feature. In the preamble to the resolu-
tion proper the committee sets forth
that in order to secure consideration OF
his application, any old veteran in order
to secure favorable action by the au-
thorities higher up must prove conclu-
sively that he is pauper, which as
they declared is humiliating.
The gist of the resolution is that the
legislature be approached with . view
of inducing it to SO change or modify
the law as to place all Confederate vet
Grams with honorable records on the
same footing. They would have the law
to so read as to eliminate the present
pauper's oath system, and have the ap-
plicant simply certify to the satisfaction
Of the pension board of his county as to
his service, in the army or navy of the
Confederacy, which would be > sine
qua non as to his eligibility.

Portland, Maine-After a dav and

II appeared on the face OF the returns
from town and city clerks in all but

bitton was not DEBATED In the special
election. a. nrst returns indicated.
The votes an tabulated up to s
o'clock last evening, showed a major
ity Of 465 for prohibition, but this
morning this majority had been re-
duced to 295. The most of the towns
yet to be heard from have been un-
officially reported with small maJori-
ties favoring the retention OF the pro-
hibitory amendment in the constitu-
ton. and any change in the vote OF
these places IL likely 70 help the pro.

In addition to the 465 majority
shown by the clerks returns, there
are nifty more dry" votes known to
exist In Portland, which are not in

cause of an admitted error.
The change from an apparent VIC
tory for the wet side by 700 votes to
295 votes In favor of the "drys" came
after prohibitionists had conceded de-
feat and representatives OF those who
sought the repeal of the constitution

WILL HANDLE 100000 BALES.
Has More Than Sixty Warehouses II
the State, Which Are Widely
Scattered.

misunderstanding to President G..
r. Hightower, of the Mississippi division
of the Farmers Union, the chain OF
warehouses of that organization will
handle at least 100000 bales of the
states cotton crop during the current
season.
Granting that the Mississippi crop
does not exceed one million bales, am
confident that one-tenth of the amount
will be handled through our ware
houses" says President Hightower. I'VE
expect, of course, to handle . great deal
of cotton grown by farmers who are
not members of the organization, A.
was the case last year. Az we are now
in control of the principal warehouses
of the state, and our system is in first
class working order, there is no reason
why the volume of our receipts should
not show a heavy increase.
"The Farmers Union headquarters in
this city now occupy the entire second
floor of the Neal building, on South
State street. In order to make room
for the warehouse department, 1t was
necessary to secure additional floor
space, and the building has been fitted
up in first-class shape for sampling and
the clerical work incident to warehous-
ing and marketing the crop.
1--WE operate sixty-odd warehouses in
the state" said Mr.. Hightower, land
we have asked for careful reports from
the managers of each of them. These
warehouses are widely scattered, and
represent all sections. In addition We
get many letters from our people, and
the result will justify me in saying
that I believe the crop this year has
been mderestimated considerably, even
after estimates made of deterioration
and damage.
"In the boil weevil district, the wee
wis have been extremely active and
have inflicted extraordinary damage.
Then comes the reporting of army worms
and caterpillars. The army worms and
the caterpillars have destroyed the last
vestige of a chance for a top crop.
Practically fall the cotton that will be
gathered is that made along in July
and the early part of August, therefore.
"It occurs to me that in view of the
reports of crop shortage all over the
country, and the address of President
Charles h. Barrett, the national presi-
dent q he union; It would hSE W5s
move for the farmers to go slow on
marketing cotton for . while-but ~
to predictions as to what the Afissis-
sippi crop will be, I am not prepared
to give the figures. Suffice it to say it
is going to be a great deal shorter than
most people think"
