CANNING FACTORY
MAKES TEST
RUN
PLANT WILL SOON BE IN ACTIVE
oPERATloN-7wlLL BE IMPoR-
TANT INDUSTRY.

The McInnis Canning factory started
its machinery yesterday afternoon,
the purpose being to try out the ma
chinery and get things in readiness
to take up regular and steady work.
1t was quite an interesting sight to
note the smooth running of a lot
Of machinery just installed and to
see how well properly appointed
plant performes the work for which
mechanical skill has designed it.
d. E. McInnis and E. e. Conner
were as busy as two bees looking
after the assignment of the numerous
hands necessarily employed in the
factory.
The factory is designed to become
quite a useful institution in Hatties-
burg, providing, as it will, a ready
certain, cash market, for one of the
easiest crops grown in this section
The sweet potato can be grown with
less work than any crop produced on
the lands of South Mississippi and
even at the price which the canning
factory can afford to pay, there is
more money in potatoes than in cot
ton. The success of the McInnis can
ming factory means its enlargement
and possibly over similar plants, to
encourage and develop an industry
In which even children may profitably
and pleasantly engage. The starting
of this factory doubtless means the
increase of the potato crop by thous
ands of bushels next year and the
years thereafter.

ity OF work done. AS might have
been expected from his usual tact
and ability it would seem from the
above telegram that Dr.. Martin had
succeeded in securing the hearty adop-
tion of his plans, and now with the
conference behind the movement 1t
only remains matter of time to see
what advances and progress Hargrove
is to make under his direction. DR..
Martin is a school man with both eX-
perience and ability and the very
man that Hargroye needs just now
to inaugurate this movement which
is to result in greater Hargrove.
The plans as already disclosed in
clude no less than complete all
round equipment for first class "A
grade college to be maintained and
run strictly according to college plans.
This will mean an immediate and
cimplete overheauing of the present

venient and sanitary toilet and bath
rooms as well as laboratory and GYM

is in Ardmore this week. Mr.. Wood
came to look over this country and
to invest in some of the Indian
lands which will be placed on the

Mr. Wood is the author of a re-

proposes to have introduced in the

provide for the buying of bonds by
all state and national banks. This
provision sets forth that these banks
will be allowed to invest sixty per
cent of their funds in state, county,
citv and school bonds. the same to
be deposited in the treasury of the
United States and held there as a
reserve fund for said bank, OF
banks. BY doing this it is claimed
1y the author Of the bill that, in
ease of panic the banks of the
will have this fund-these
various bonds-to check against and
not have to go to other banks for
financial assistance.

WILL BE PROVIDED.

A. Schneider and his brother-in-
law, A.C. SChlesinger from New
York are here and left this morning
Tor Woodford to visit the Schneider
asphalt mines. Mr.. Schneider has
Il thirty-year lease on $50 acres OF

delayed development work on ac-
count of lack of transportation. lie
states that he will be here several
days and that within two weeks he
will know whether he will begin ac-
tive development work or not. He is
will be built to the asphalt deposits.
If the Ringing people do not build
he feels sure the Rock Island Will
undertake the construction of the
road and the result will be the same
in either instance. Mr.. Schneider
was glad to learn that the Cleveland.
Ohio, people had entered this field
and is building a paint factory in
which asphalt will be used in the fac
tory. He says the only thing which
prohibits full developmnt is railway
connection and feels sure that this
problem will be solved within very
short time. He read with interest
the dispatch from Lawton which sta
ted that city had signed up with Mr..
Ringing and was greatly encouraged
over the outlook.
Mr.. Schneider says Ardmore is
growing nicely and the people here
ought to be proud of their city. He
says Ardmore will make busy ir-

from twenty-five to thirty thousand
