ALFALFA CAMPAIGN.

The work preparing for the al
falfa campaign to be attended here
in August has been progressing
finely. Invitations accompanied
with articles on NoXubee County
and on this alfalfa movement have
been sent to all daily papers cir.
culating in this section of the
state and most of the county pa
pers. In addition all the agricul.
tural papers in tn south and many
in the middle west have been writ
ten to and very favorable replies
received 1t is understood that
the fact Of getting up money for
the entertainment of the visitors
on the occasion has been very sue
cessful, notably in Brooksvllle,
n town by the way that a al
ways be depended on to do its
part.
1t is thought that the people of
the county, generally, however, do
not appreciate, fully the trcmcn.
dous Importance of this movement
in general and it's special value to
Noxubee county, which has been
selected as the starting point for
the campaign in the South. Other
places could and would have
raised more money and gladly
have done so for the opportunity
that this county was given on ac
count of it's character and it's pro
gressive spirit. Tn some ways this
offers to NOxubee county some of
the best opportunities it has ever
had to show it's real worth, its re
sources and its possibilities anf
it's achievements. 1t will ado
largely to the market value of our
land, it will make the county one
of the best known counties in the
South, it will make its bonds sala
BILE and it will bring to it ever,
advantage that a high reputation
aid wide spread fame could bring
to a community. Every person il
the county should take a live in
terest in this movement for it
means some advantage to every
single person living in the county.

HAY CAPS FOR ALFALFA.

Alfalfa should be raked and either
put in the barn or if it is not sufficient.
ly dry, put into hay cocks. 1t is a mat.
ter of economy to have two or three
hundred hay caps (made of six-cent
cloth one yard sQuare) to use in case
of bad weather. You may think this
is considerable bother, but Door al
falfa is poor stuff, and when we re.
member that good alfalfa brings us in
actual results nearly as great returns
as wheat bran, we can better realize
the importance of taking care of it.
If any of us had 500 hay cocks of
BRAN in the field, We would take care
of them, but with alfalfa we think of
it as Just hay"
These cloths may have wooden pegs
OF some sort of weights attached to
each corner to hold them in place; the
pegs can be pushed into the hay to
hold the corners fast. Hay caps will
soon pay for themselves In finer
quality of hay guaranteed by their
use.

Hon. Walter Clark Coming.

From a letter to a friend here the
welcome news is received that Hon.
Walter Clark will be in Noxubee county
on August nth and 18th and take par
in the alfalfa campaign to be inaugu.
rated that day. Mr.. Clark has VISITED
Noxubee once or twice before while he
was president Of the Mississippi Cottor
Association and has always been 8
warn admirer of the county. There is
not a more sensible man in the state
than Mr.. Clark and as a planter anc
economist he has few equals. His pres
ence will be a valuable factor in the
campaign.

Silo Train.

The silo train sent out by the rail
roads was in Macon Wednesday morn
ing. Quite a large size crowd went to
the depot and saw the exhibits and
heard the lectures. The train was un-
der the management of our distin-
guished Commissioner of Agriculture,
H. E. Blakeslee, who made the open
ing talk, outlining the object Of the
train and the benefits to be derived
from it. He was followed by DR., Nor
gan Of the live stock department of the
Southern Railway. He gave a very in
teresting talk on beef cattle and dairy
ing. He emphasized the Importance
of feeding dairy cattle a balanced ration
and the necessity of selling off the I'M
profitable cows from the herd.
DR.. j. ?. Bushong, attached to the
u. S. Bureau Of Animal Industry made
an interesting talk, and told of the
benefits to be derived from a county
association that will embrace both beef
and dairy cows. Mississippi has made
great progress in the eradication of the
cattle tick, and has over 5000 dipping
watts, more than any other three states
in the south.
All kinds of farm machinery and diff
ferent makes of silos and silo cutters
were exhibited, but the most interest
ing exhibit was the livestock, the Red
Polls being from the stock farm of Mr..
w. S. Turner. of Crawford, who has
made a specially of cattle raising and
breeding for a number of years. The
Shorthorns were from the Bermuda
Stock Farm, Livingston, Ala. One of
the owners of that farm is a Mr.. Lee,
of San Angelo. Texas, who has a large
ranch near that place and is n of the
most noted breeders of beef cattle in
the country. He is by the wav a SON
in-law of Noxubee, having married Miss
Allen, q daughter of Maj. b.. Allen,
several years ago.

The country store of Mrs. Johnson,
about three miles from town, and the
store of Dinsmore g. Sons were recently
fobbed, each being entered by the bur

mitted that he was the party who
robbed both stores and was then on his
way lack to Mrs. Johnson's store with
The intention of again burglarizing it.
He gave his name as Henry Moore, and
said he left Hattiesburg recently in
company with another negro who was a
professional burglar and they came to
Noxubee with the purpose of robbery.
They came to Meridian together. where
they both caught a freight train, but
became separated and when he got off
at Macon the other negro did not show
up, so he broke into a blacksmith shop
at the depot, got the necessary tools
and committed the robberies mentioned.
He says he is originally from Dancy,
Ala, but has been working at Hatties-
burg for some time. He claims that
this is his first crime and the other
negro was to "show him how" Moore

The fact is being demonstrated
this year that Noxubee county is
a corn county. You may say it
isn't, but watch the cribs this fall.
Last year only two counties in the
state gave Il higher average yield
per acre in the demonstration work
than NoXubec, and they are both
delta counties. Our average was
do bushels per acre.-Macon
Beacon.
Noxubee always was a great corn
producing county, and before the
war was one of the leading agricul.
tural and stock breeding counties
in the Union. In the census of 1900
it reported $4,000 bushels, being
seventh in the in the state, and
only being outranked by seventeen
out of Kentucky's one hundred
and nineteen counties, and by
twenty-siX out of the ninety.siX
counties in Tennessee. Its aver
