Blessed are the dead, who die
in the Lord"
These comforting words can so
truly be applied to the dear, good
old lady who has recently left
such a host of bereaved relatives
and friends to sorrow for her pas
sing away. Mrs. c. W. Allen
departed this life at the holy twi-
light hour, on Monday, April Is,
1912.
After many weary months Of
suffering, in which her patient
trust and Christian fortitude
shone like a bright star amid the
gloom of impending death, sur
rounded by her loved ones and
sad, sympathizing friends, the
beautiful spirit of this noble lady
softly sped to it's God.
Mrs Mary Ann Allen was the
wife of C. w. Allen, deceased, a
beloved and devout minister of
the Primitive Baptist faith. She
was born in the year 1887, being
Is years of age at the time of her
death. Her maiden name was
Mary Ann Gaines, and she be-
came the wife of the Rev. c. w.
Allen at Marietta in 1856, her
husband preceding her to the
grave January 90, 1891. Since
then Mrs. Allen has spent most
of her time with her daughter,
Mrs. L. O. Carruth. in whose
home she was always the most
honored guest and recipient of
every loving attention that hu-
man hearts could dictate. Whe1
able to travel she spent part of
her time with Mrs. Horace Glib
son at Corona, Alabama, she be-
ing the only other living child.
Scarcely could a mother have
found two more lovely homes in
which to pass the declining years
than were offered by these two
daughters and their families.
Mrs. Allen possessed a Won
drously cheerful disposition,
coupled W i t h rare Christian
graces. Her sunny smile was
ever ready and her kindly words
brought blessings to all.
Her memory is like a benedic-
ton. Her death was a triumph
over the grave.
Short services were held at the
home of DIR. L. 0. Carruth, con-
dlcted by Mr.. Strain, after which
the interment took place at Hill
S i d e cemetery, Chesterville.
Many friends of the family, as
we'll as special lifelong friends of
Mrs. Allen, attended the last sad
rites. Beautiful floral tributes
were laid on the mound that
marks her last resting place.

Lice Killing Cattle.


During the past two months
there has been a fearful NOR
tally among cattle in all parts
of the country. A few weeks
ago the Herald printed a notice
from Prof. R. Gildart, in which
he mentioned that hundreds of
head had died in the eastern
part of the county. From other
sections we have heard similar
reports.
Mr.. J. S. Allgood, a practical
man, one who takes the best
care of his stock noted that his
cattle and mules were both
steadily losing flesh, and his
COWS failing rapidly in milk. He
examined them carefully and
found that both his cows and
mules were being eaten up with
lice. Wednesday of last week
he took both his mules and cows
to the dipping vat near the
Yazoo City cemetery, and had
them dipped. The dipping killed
the vermin, and at once his stock
showed a decided improvement,
his mules taking on flesh and
eating readily. Before dipping
his COWS they were giving a pint
of milk at a milking. Sunday
from the same COWS. four days
after the dipping, he got from
them more than a gallon at each
milking, and they are daily in
creasing. Two more clippings
Mr.. Allgood thinks will rid his
stock entirely of the vermin.
Now the Herald would suggest
that owners of stock, where they
show illness or lack of taking on
flesh, examine them and see if
they are not being eat up with
lice. The lice can easily be
found by looking closely about
the eyes and throat, and by rub
bling the hair backward. Get
rid of the lice by dipping the
cattle, mules, horses, hogs, etc.,
and in nine cases out of ten there
will be no fatal results. What
Allgood found to be the matter
with his stock will be fourd in
others. Don't expect your stock
to fatten and be healthy while
they are literally being devoufa
with lice and ticks, and don't
curse the dipping yats until they
have been given a trial. They
proved a blessing to Mr.. ALL
goods stock, and they will prove
the same to others if tried

Railroad Trespassers Killed.

Washington, D. c. April TO-
Statistics compiled by the Inter-
state Commerce Commission are
directing popular attention
strongly to the large numbers of
people who are annually killed
and injured while trespassing on
the property of the railways of
the United States. Referring to
this subject in an address deliv-
cred before the Railroad Club Of
Richmond, Va, President Fin
ley. of the Southern Railway
Company, said:
while speaking on the SUBJ
ject of preventable accidents, let
me call attention to the great
loss of life on American railways
by trespassers on railway proper
ty. | will make no mention of
the thousands of cases of per-
sonal injuries sustained annually
by persons trespassing on rail-
way property, in connection with
which the railways are called up
on to pay out annually large
sums, or of the great damage
done to railway property caused
by acts of trespassers. | will
simply refer to the loss of life.
THE statistics of the inter-
state Commerce Commission
show that no less than 81, O83
people were killed while tres
passing on the property of the
railways of this country during
the ten years, 19O2-1911, and
that out of the total number of
people, 1896. killed for the
year ended June 80, 1911, 1924,
or more than so per cent. were
trespassers. The railways. at
an expense of millions of dollars
for the installation of block sig
mails, have carried the preven-
ton of collisions so far that the
total number of passengers and
employees killed in such acct
dents annually is about 400.
While we should aim, through
greater efficiency of operation,
to eliminate these accidents
entirely, is it not worth while
for the governments to take
some action to stop the evil of
trespassing which costs an
average of over 5000 lives an
nually.
IF for no other reason than
for the protection of those who
participate in it, trespassing
should be abolished in some way.
| mention this in the hope that
not only those interested in the
welfare and prosperity of our
railways, but in the welfare of
the nation, will do everything
that is within their power to
aid in bringing about the en-
actment of such reasonable and
helpful legislation as will result
in a great saving of life, and, at
the same time, relieve the rail-
ways of the country of consider
able trouble and expense"

The problem of how best to add
to the fertility Of any piece of
land is a very intricate one to
which no off-hand solution can
be given; but the general rules
which govern all good farming
can be understood by any far
mer who is really in earnest
about his work. The man who
grows the cotton or corn on the
same land year after year, who
allows his soil to lie bare during
the winter, who neglects to grow
legumes, who wastes stable ma
nure, who tries to grow as much
to sell and as little to feed as pos
sible, knows, if he is Of ordinary
intelligence, that he is doing poor
farming; and continues to do it
only because he lacks energy and
pluck. The Progressive Farmer.
The farmer who is improving
his soil while making a living for
