Jacksonville state board of health
has startedrDr. w. IL. Rowan, OF his
force, out on a cleanup campaign. He
will begin at Holly Springs, near the
Tennessee line, and will work gradually
down to the enter of the state and to
the Louisiana border.
His first effort will be toward arousing
the people to the necessity of clean eat
ing houses, hotels, bakeries, slaughter
pens, meat markets, diaries, fruit stands
and such places. While no harsh meth
DDS are contemplated, should the pro
prietors not show a disposition to rem
edy defects, the board is determined to
have the municipalities clean up. The
work will be done in conjunction with
the local authorities where possible.
An innovation will be an inspection
OF hotels ad eating houses and these
places will be graded and classified A, B,
and c and d. This classification will be
furnished the travelling public free in
official bulletins. The size and expensive
ness of the hotel will not be considered
only cleanliness and sanitary surround
ings, and thus the small hostelry will
have an equal chance with the large one.

LAMP PREVENTS WRECK.
Woman Who Waved Light May Get
Carnegie Medal.

Louisville.-That two women deserve
a Carnegie medal for heroism is evil
denced by the means employed in avoid
ing a serious wreck and possibly the
death of a train crew on the New Or
leans, Mobile and Chicago railroad. The
ladies in the incident are Mrs. Susie
johnson and Miss Hester Ross. The
switching crews in the railroad yards
in some manner allowed several cars to
get loose and start south. Mrs. johnson
fortunately observed them coming at a
moderate speed. In a moment she was
at the telephone and informed parties
in town. In the meantime Miss Ross,
being appraised of the circumstance,
seized a lamp and ran with all haste
to the railroad not far from the house,
and with the lamp tagged a freight
train which was passing at the time
under full steam, and succeeded in stop
ping the train just as the loose cars were
coming rapidly toward them.

GOVERNOR PARDONS BOY.
Chief Justice Buys the Lad a Suit Of
Clothes,

Jackson.-It is not every forlorn little
chap who has the chief justice of the
supreme court of a state to 60 to the
governor and ask that governor to par.
don the y%oungster, but that is what hap
pened to Joseph Campbell, a youth from
Westwego, La, who started out to see
the world last March. He was pulled
off the blind baggage" at Jackson and
hailed before a justice of the peace and
fined $3.50 for "vagrancy." He is be.
tween Is and 10 years of age, and in
knee pants. The lad merely said he
wanted to see Q bit of the world AMI
had run away from home. He was sent
down to the county farm, herded with a
lot of convicts.
Chief Justice Mayes of the Mississippi
supreme court happened to be down at a
health resort not far from the county
farm. He wax astounded to see tina
little boy being worked with the othef
prisoners, carrying water for them, etc.
He made inquiry and found who he was
and what he was in for, and wrote Gov.
Brewer to have the record investigated.
Gov. Brewer issued the pardon, had
the boy brought to his office, and hc
and Chief Justice Mayes had > long
talk with the lad. 1t seems that the
boy had a pretty good reason for leav'
ing home, according to his statement
and he said he wanted to work. Judge
Mayes took him out, bought him scme
nice clothes, took him home with him
to supper and to stay all night. and
until he gets some work in Jackson,
The governor and the chief justice are
now hunting a job for a bright, self.
reliant and gentlemanly youngstci OF
between Is and IL. The fact that a
boy of such years should be herded with
hardened criminals is but another argu.
ment for a reformatory for Mississippi.

CAN RAISE A CORN CROP
CONDITIONS EXAGGERATED IN
FLOOD AREA, MKAY SAYS.
With Good Seed and Proper Cultivation
Cora Planted as Late as July Is
Will Make Good.

sackson.-Speaking Of the corn plant
ing outlook Tor overtlowed lands, j.. f.
Mckay, field representative OF the de-
partment of farmers Institutes OF the
Agricultural and Mechanical College
faculty, made the following statements:
There is an idea prevailing among
many planters in the Mississippi delta
that u corn crop after the waters reeeds
from overtiowed lands is not safe.
Statements are made that this is due
to insect pests. | have taken pains to
investigate this matter among various
farmers in the bottom lands and con-
illusions reached from a number of in.
quiries are that this is a tradition not
well founded on fact or experience. We
found that no one could speak from
their W experience that it was disas-
trous to plant late corn on these flood
lands, but the almost invariable reply
was that they made corn and in most
cases they made better yields.
There may be exceptional cases
where the insect damage is very great,
but the use of a few more seed, of
good, sound corn, and of rapid c~ultiva-
ton, there is 40 doubt of splendid re-
suits and it is often attended with no
more hazard than an early spring crop,
which they very often suffers heavily
from cut-worms and other insects.
1T would be extremely hazardous ia
attempt a late cotton crop under boil.
weevil conditions, the corn proposition
being far more promising. All kinds OF
f%eedstutfs and grain are high, and
promise to remain so. Corn can be sue
cessfully planted as late as July 10 to
Is. The lands are very fertile, the
weather warm, and growth would be
rapid. If we should have an early fall
corn brought to maturity can be ripened
in the shock by cutting.
"As to variety, a good, native corn,
or some sound seed corn from the cen
trail states can be used. 1t is not strict
ly necessary to have Mexican June varie
ties. These corns have some qualities
that recommend them, as they will stand
more adverse conditions than ordinary
varieties. The fact is, there is a little
craze on for Mexican June, somewhat
like the ideas mentioned.
