Creamery to Commence Operation.

The Macon Creamery Co. will com
mence operation tomorrow, Saturday,
August I'd. and every one interested il
invited to call and inspect the plant and
inform himself as to the plans on which
it is to be operated.
Mr.. Fuller, the manager. is thor.
oughly capable and experienced man,
and has had many years experience,
and be understands not only the inside
workings but the best methods In mark
ing the products of the creamery.
Nature has done much to make this
an ideal dairy country, with milder
climate and longer seasons than those
of the north and richer soil and con-
sequent more nutritious grasses than
our neighbors on the south. Noxubee.
therefore, with energy and intelligent
effort, should become the banner dairy
county south of the Ohio river.
From this date every heifer calf in
the county should be raised, as the de-
mand for the creamery's products. Mr..
Fuller thinks. will be much greater

Corn In An Abundance.

From the Jackson News.
Go out and take a peep at th'
demonstration farm. 1t will d.

listening to the tales of the Dol
weevil and other depressing sub
jects. Within walking distance
you might say, if the thermometer
were a little kinder-just about
two miles west of the city limits
on the Clinton road, is located 8
six.acre example of what can bt
done in corn raising in Kinds
county.
Under the supervision of P. P.
Garner, district agent of the U. s.
agricultural department, six acres
of the finest corn that can be found
in the United States is being pro.
duced on plot furnished by J. L.
Enochs who owns a good sized
farm in that district. While Mr..
Garner is slow to make predictions
as to yield per acre, visitors to the
farm who have a good idea of what
it should produce claim that one
hundred bushels to the acre would
not be an excessive estimate. The
corn is known as the New Era,
the same product that brought
Bennie Beeson into national prom
inence when he broke a rev rec
ords in corn raising a few years
ago.
The beauty about the demon
stration farm near Jackson is that
all the neighbors around about
have set in to show Mr.. Garner he
does not know it all when it comes
to producing pretty roasting ears.
For miles around the Kinds coun-
ty farmers are vieing with one

as the government man, and
while there is little perceptible
difference in the methods, there is

Zone of the biggest candy manufac-
turers in New York offers to buy one
hundred tons of choice pec&ns annually
for a period of ten years at the price of
rs cents per pound. This is 81 800 per
ton or $3.50, 600 per annum. This shows
that the candy business is on big
scale and also that there is fine de-
mand for pecans. Georgia is said to be
the best state for the production of
these nuts. An acre containing fifty

To Head or Boil WeeviI.

''Boll weevil to G. L. Doolittle
of Newton, is a joke. +" says th'
Meridian Star of a recent date
''He smilingly declares that thu

he says that it is because he ha:

Mr.. Doolittle said that the boil
weevil had cut his cotton crop
down to such an extent, (from "a
to So bales and last year to 13
bales), that he decided to seek
another money crop. During the
agitation for truck growers Orga-
nizations he took considerable in

his 20 acres in cabbage. Through

ber of other farmers raised cabbage
and made nice sums of money

on a cotton crop.
Mr.. DoOlittle also said that this
year he had planted fifteen acres
in cotton. He picked the boil

the weevil getting the best Of the
