IS PROVEN HOME OF The PECAN

That Lamar county between Lum-
berton and Purvis will be one series
of great pecan groves, is not beyond
the range of ordinary imagination.
One New Orleans man, DR.. c. c. Bass,
of the nursery firm Of Bass & Sons,
Lumbetron, thinks so, and has made
a start to bring about the transforms
tion.
DR.. Bass has 800 acres on which are
being set 10000 fine young pecans
grown by him at Columbia. Several
hundred trees have already been set
and the work will be pushed this
spring. The proposed 800 acre grove
is between Lumberton and Purvis OF
land purchased from the Pole Stool
Lumber Company.
The father of DR.. Bass, |. c. Bass
senior of the firm, has had great sue
cess at Harmon in Lamar county. Re
Gently an entire carload of youn
trees were shipped to other points.
The success of Bass & Son has lie
: others to plan grated pecan grove
: which can be brought into bearing IL
e side of 5 years. No land more adap
e ed to pecans has been found in tt
y South than that of Lamar and Fore
!, counties.

prices will fall, in which case the oe

Mrs, Grace Rustin
Sues Penn Mutual
for Small Fortune
Insurance Company Refuses to Pay
Doctors Widow $4,000 on Ground
tht Policies Lapsed.

Refusal Of the Penn Mutual Life Insur-
ance company TO pay Mrs. Grace II. Rustin
900 on policies carried by her late hus-
band. Or Frederick Rustin. resulted in the
starting Of a suit to collect the sum by
Mrs Rustin in district court Wednesday
morning.
Tho filing Of the suit is the first blow In
a legal battle on the question whether or
not the beneficiary Of a life insurance
policy that has been permitted to lapse can
secure payment Of the face Of the policy
by paying the company the amount Of the
lapsed payments plus interest. The COM
pany's refusal to pay is based on the con-
tention that at the time OF his death DIT.
Rustin had permitted one payment on each
policy to lapse. Mrs. Rustn rendered the
lapsed premiums $50 on a $1,000 policy,
and $50 on a $4,000 policy. and asked that
the policies be revived and the benefits
Of $4,000 and $4,000 paid. From c. z.
Gould. general agent OF the company, she
received letters 20 the effect that the COM
pany cannot accept the rendered premiums
nor revive the policies.
On a policy that had not been permitted
to lapse Mrs. Rustin already has received
$4,000 from the Penn Mutual.

COUNTY HAS CLAIM ON STATE
Discovery is Made Of a Bill for Two
Thousand Dollars.
FOR FEED OF STATE PRISONERS
HisunderstandinE ~ 60 the Time
when Men Convicted Of Crime
Become y charge 20 the
state.

Claim for S200o against the state ~ Ne
braska and In behalf Of Douglas county
Tor care 81 state prisoners in the pcrf las
county Jail will be filed In the Office 81 the
audltor Of state as soon as the county
auditing department can determine the eX-
act sum believed TO be due the county.
The claim will be filed by County Clerk
n. NJ Havcrly on recommendation 81
George Antilles, chief clerk in the auditing
department OF the county clerks office
The states rates Of payment for care OF
state prisoners when they are cared for In
places other than the state penitentiary
IL 81 a day. At this rate Mr. Antilles be-
Iieves the state owes the county consid-
eraDly more than s20oO.
The decision to file a claim against the
state was made shortly after It was dis
covered through a misinterpretation Of the
statute the county at It's own expense has
: cared for state prisoners for short periods
when II should have been reimbursed by
the state.
The statute which provides that the state
shall pay 81 a day for care OF it's prisoners
outside the state penitentiary also provides
that men charged with crime become state
prisoners at time OF conviction instead of
at time Of sentence The county always
has proceeded under the theory that the
convicted men do not become state pris-
oners and the state does not become liable
for their care until they actually are placed
in the penitentlary. Under the statute II a
man Is convicted on certain date, kept In
the county jail awaiting sentence for iii.
teen days, and then sentenced and taken
20 the penitentisry the state must pay the
county SIS. that is, 81 day for the tfteer
days the convicted man was cared for by
the county after the date OF his conviction
