JUSTICE BROWN TO TAKE OATH
Father of .Benlidji Attorney Con
tinues Member of Supreme Court.

On January l, Justice Calvin L.
Brown, father of Montreville E.
Brown, the Bemidji attorney, will
succeed himself as a member of the
state supreme court. At that time
Justice Charles L. Lewis leaves the
bench, giving way to Judge P. E.
Brown, who was elected at the last
general election to succeed Justice
Lewis whose term of office now ex-
pires. The new term of Justice Cal
vim L. Brown, who was reelected in
1910, will also begin January 1,
when his former term expires, and it
is probable that the two Browns will
take their oaths of office at the same
time
Justice Lewis was defeated through
the efforts of the attorneys and 9TH
ers from st. Louis county, his home.
He has served two six-year terms,
having begun his service in 1900.
He expects to return to Duluth to
engage in the practice of law. Be-
fore his election to the Supreme
Court he was one of the district
judges at Duluth.
The new justice, P. E. Brown,
comes from Luverne, where he has
been district judge since 1891, hav-
ing been appointed by Governor Mer-
riam and since then thrice elected.
He has been resident of Luverne
since 1888.
Justice Calvin L. Brown has
served on the supreme bench since
January, 1900. Before that he was
judge of the district court in the Six
teenth district for thirteen years.

er since remained at the disposal of
the students.

ST. Paul, Minn., Dec. 21--Today
marked the fiftieth anniversary Of
Archbishop Ireland's ordination to
the priesthood. In Difference to the
expressed wish of the Arch bishop no
elaborate celebration of the golden
jubilee was held, but the flood of
con gratulatory messages received
during the day from archbishops,
bishops, priests and prominent lay
men throughout America afforded
eloquent testimony of the love, re-
spect and veneration in which the
eminent St. Paul prelate is held by
the people of all classes.

All Beggars Get Something.

A priest who acted as Archbishop
1reland's secretary for some years is
authority for the statement that the
prelate never turned a beggar from
his door absolutely empty handed
He gives money to them with slight
questioning, and seldom in amounts
less than 81. the amount often being
as high as SIS or $40. 1t is related
of him that one evening in winter
a forlorn-looking man came to his
door and asked for quarter Fumb-
ling in his pockets for a minute the
Arch bishop brought up a $40 gold
piece, and, handing it to the man
with a smile, said, ''That is a little
more than you need tonight Take
it, use what you have to, and make
the remainder the nucleus for the
fortune which you have it in your
power to win.''

73 But Looks Only go.

Archbishop Ireland passed his
seventy-third birthday anniversary
on September II last, but both mem
tally and physically appears to be in
the prime of life. His hair is iron
gray, and there are burrows in his
forehead, but the casual observer
would not guess his age at more
than go.
The priests of the diocese have
presented Archbishop Ireland with a
purse of 100000 in celebration Of
his golden jubilee. That the whole
or at least the greater part of this
large sum will be distributed in
charity is regarded as certain by all
those who are familiar with the ex-
treme generosity of the Archbishop.

YAZOO is ALL RIGHT.
Cotton Crop Failing, Other Products Are
Raised.

Yazoo City.-While the cotton crop
in this county is very short, 1aZoo
county was never in as good condition
to deal with a short cotton crop as she
is this year. The large yield OF the corn
crop, hog crop, potato crop, hay crop
and molasses crop of last year has led
the farmers this year, and hence they
owe far less than ever before. The corn
and hay crops are fine this year. the
potato and molasses crops are good. ana
there are more hogs and a greater III
terest in hog raising than ever before
There are peas enough raised in Aazoo
county this year to fatten the hogs
and feed the people all winter. In addl

u,s of olives and Olive Oil.

The use of olives and olive oil "a

new uses of these articles are received
IN all quarters with an inconceivable
degree Of acclaim. The housewife a

where the olive oil Is used for frying
Of meats or vegetables If the piquant
tang is desired to be modified 1t Is
best to let the oil come to a boiling
point before putting IN the materials
which you wish to fry.
This will keep the oil from pene-

will be less of the taste which it axes
time to acquire, but which when &C
CURED will be a hard matter to dis

CUT OUT THE SPECTATOR
Governor-Elect Brewer Makes Urgent
Appeal to Spinners.

Capitalization. Earl Brewer, gov
srnor-elect of Mississippi, has just re-
turned from a trip East, during which
visit Mr.. Brewer made an address, in
which he endeavored to convince New
England cotton spinners of the desira-
billy of growing their W cotton in
the South, or at least of buying it Of
the grower, rather than of spectators.
English spinners have bought $4,000
acres of land in the Yazoo delta in the
last six months and spinners from Hol-
land have bought $4,000 acres in the
last three months. There are still AGO.
600 acres left suitable for raising the
best grade of cotton, and l am patriotic
enough to want to see it bought by
Americans, rather than by foreigners.
81 have come North to present the
situation to spinners of Boston and New
Bedford before it is too late.
after meeting the spinners face tc
face, I am convinced that the spinner il

to fight to get his rice, but that thu
spinner has to fight as hard with thu

TICK CARRIES fever
Blood Sucking Insect Fattens on
Animal on Which It Lands.
Il ls to Stop Spread Of Pest That Ma
tIonaI Quarantine Line Has Been
Established-Dipping Is the
Surest Remedy.

The cattle tick is an insect which
carries a disease peculiar to cattle.
This disease is ~variously known as
splenitic fever, tick fever, Texas fever.
or bloody murrain. The tick not only
carries this disease, but Is a blood
sucking insect which fattens at the ex-
pense Of the animal on which 1t feeds.
1t is to stop the spread Of this tick
that the national quarantine line has
been established. Cattle cannot be
moved north Of that line except under
certain strict rules which tend to re-
duce their market value. Cattle from
other sections when brought into a
tick infested region to improve the
grade Of the stock are liable to be-
come infested with the tick and die
Of tick fever. In every tick infested
country the loss of the cattle from
tick fever in one year would 60 far
to pay for the destruction Of the
tick.
Ticks on a milk COW reduce the quail
ity Of milk. They also injure the hides

from tick-free cattle. In all of thu
region south Of the national Quarau
tine line the cattle tick is the mos
serious obstacle to successful AM
profitable live stock raising and dairy
ing. The speedy destruction Of tn
cattle tick is, therefore, greatly to b
desired.

FALL. FAIRS ARE IMPORTANT
Educational Features Should Be intro.
duced and Eliminate Demoralizing
and Worthless Ones.

The farmers and business men
should realize that agricultural fairs
play a very important part In the de-
velopment of the farming interests.
Every county in the south should have
an agricultural fair in the fall. Those
In charge of the fairs should introduce
educational features into the organi-
cation of the fairs and eliminate de-
moralizing and worthless features
such as to some extent characterize
most Of Il fairs at the present time.
The mission of the fair is to tell in
the direction of larger and better
crops, more and better stock, better
| homes, and fewer young people leav'
ing the farms.
The fairs should make arrangements
| for boys classes in live stock judging
| The girls should be taught to make
butter and Judge it. Prizes should be
offered for the winners in the boys

CROP OUTLOOK is GLOOMY
Total Yield in Kinds County, It is Be.
lieved, Will Not Exceed Twenty
Thousand Bales.

Jacksonville boil weevil situation in
central and southern Mississippi is any
thing but encouraging to the cotton
planter, and the general opinion on the
possible yield of the cotton crop is pes
simistic. There are two reasons.
One lies in the high hopes that were
raised early in the season when it
seemed tlat the weevil had almost van
ished and would do little harm. The
| change to views which hold that the
crop may not reach that of last year has
been abrupt and decided. The other
reason for the depression is that the vice.
wills are now so numerous that they are
attacking the large bolls and running
the locks into which they are able to
penetrate. There are instances where
the cotton stalk is well fruited for two
thirds of its height, but a close examina-
ton shows that many of the bolls to-
ward the top which seem large and
promising have been punctured and are
oadly damaged inside. Some OF them
appear to be about to rot. Others will
only make a half outturn, owing to the
.amage to two or three of the four or
five locks of the boil. Thu is q loss not
apparent except upon close examination
of the fields.
Relatively, the best lands have the
poorest cotton. For instance, the little
creek bottoms and the low soils that
| have accumulated added richness with
the washings from the hills have grown
e a rank stalk, nave not matured fruit and
+ hence suffered heavily from weevils. On
the hill lands the crop was early and
there are some hill crops not at all bad
: If the local view of the likely yield is
to be accepted, Kinds and Copiah coun
p ties and perhaps Madison and Yazoo vii
g not equal last year. The damage tha'
weevils have done is illustrated in thu
l. production figures of Kinds county
which this season passed through tn
r third year of investation. The count.
re has made considerably in excess of SO,
i 900 bales. In 1909 the yield was $500
re bales. and last year was $1,000 bales
There are wagers offered now that thi
lie years production will not exceed 1000
IN bales. All people do not accept TIN
la view. but some do who are well II
n formed. -,
1T Along the line of the A. & V. road tn
ey heavy damage does not extend much III
is Their east than Forrest. There are we
wills further along, but not in such nur
bers. But everywhere south and west
Jackson the damage has been great
There are a few army worms, but n
es in any such numbers as in northe
parts of the state. They can do the &C
no ton little harm, for the crop is made a.
it'll the bolls are too big for worms to {
mt tack. Notwithstanding the green TO-
ing of the plant, about three-fourths OF I
md cotton is now open. Some of the mel
of are being picked the second time and
be other cases so rapid has been the rate
I'm, opening during the past week plant'
by say they will wait and get all the c
me ton the first time over. This does
ion seem an impossibility in the near
las ture. The crop is at the bottom and
ten the middle of the stalk and the grow
ity. that has been made above is ute
ear worthless.
