Halloween Entertainment.

Thursday afternoon. Oct. 30,
Mesdames T. M. Milan and Ed
ward Burkel delightfully."- enter
tanned large number of their
friends with a Halloween party.
Mrs. Milam's home, on Jeffer-
son street. which was used for
this occasion. was beautifully
decorated in Halloween fashion.
Pumpkin jack-o-lanterns shed
their soft rays throughout the
rooms, where the black cats and
witches were free to roam at
will.
Mesdames Milan and Burkel
were assisted in receiving their
guests by Mrs. Tyson McGhee
and Misses Anna and Forrest
Milan.
Passing into the library, in an
alcove, two black witches pre-
sided over an artistic table from
which was served hot chocolate.
In the library the guests were
seated at the tables, the places
being found by the pumpkin
score card on which a miniture
boy or girl was seated. Each
table had a dainty center-piece,
which carried out the Halloween
suggestion. Fifty-two was the
diversion for the afternoon, and
a number of animated games
were thoroughly enjoyed.
While the guests fingered in
social converse, renewing old
friendships and acquaintance,
Mesdames Milan and Burkel
served a delicious salad and ice
course. The guests then gathered
in the dinning room, where the
favors for the afternoon were
drawn. These also carried out
the Halloween idea and caused
much merriment. bringing to
mind many pleasant reminis-
cences of days gone by.
Those who enjoyed the hospi-
tality of Mesdames Milan and
Burkel readily pronounced the
afternoon success and one of
the most enjoyable affairs Of the
season.

Lee County Prizes.

At Meridian this fall Lee coun-
ty took second prize, over MISS
issippi and Alabama, The contest
was so extremely close that ma
nv visitors claimed that Lee coun-
ty should have had first. Madison
county Ala. was first. j. K. Har-
ris of Shannon who exhibited MS
single farm products at Tupelo'
won second single farm prize at
Meridian. There were a number
of single products exhibited IN

Clayton and Mr.. Harris together

bons won in Meridian.
At Jackson fair, Lee county

Harris took first prize on his
farm entry. This makes a total OF

Resolutions.

| Resolutions unanimously adopt
ed at a meeting of the Lee
County Bar Association held at
the court house in the City of
Tupelo on Oct. 25, 1918:
w. d. Anderson, a member of
the bar offered the following pre-
amble and resolutions, which
were unanimously adopted:
! Whereas, The Hon. ]. G. Rob
ins, chancellor of the first chan
Gerry court district of this state,
is soon to retire from his high
office, which he will have held
for two terms Of four years each;
and.
! Whereas. We, the members of
his home bar, who are thoroughly
familiar with both his public and
private life, desire to put in
permanent form our estimate OF
the public services and character
of Chancellor Robins; and,
| Whereas, In our judgment he
is one of the ablest chancellors
the state has ever had; in his
career on the bench he has been
honest, upright, fearless, know
ing neither rich nor poor, friend
nor foe, and among the members
of the bar practicing before him,
neither kinsman nor stranger;
discharging all the duties of his
great office with distinguished
ability, but especially has he
signalized himself in protecting
the estates of minors and other
incompetents, and in that branch
of the business of his court per-
tanning to the organization of
drainage districts for the recla-
nation of overf1oWed and swamp
lands, which has been largely
done in vacation, at distant
points from his home, where he
has -ften gone at his own ax.
pense in most inclement weather,
when not required by law to do
so; and,
Whereas, Chancellor Robins,
as a private citizen, stands as
high as any, being a faithful
friend, a trpe husband and faith
er, honest, complying with all
his obligations, and extremely
charitable; therefore, be it
| Resolved, That it is with the
deepest regret we shall lose the
further services of Chancellor
Robins on the bench, and it is
with the greatest pleasure that
we testify to his splendid char
acter and abilities.
Resolved further, That a copy
of these resolutions be spread
upon the minutes of the court,
a copy furnished the press and a
copy handed Chancellor Robins.

Boil Weevil Advice.

sociated Companies, | wish to Of
fer the following suggestions to
our farmers in preparing for the
fight against the boil weevil.
In this territory, which is now
infested by the weevil, the most
important factor in winning the
fight against it's ravages in 1914,
is the cleaning and preparing the
lands. Even with the cold wealth
er as we have had, all the weevils
have not gone to their hiberna-
ting quarters. and many thous-
and yet remain in the halfopened
and unopened bolls.
| would not advocate the burn
ing of the old stalk for two rea-
sons: First: In attempting to
cut, rake and burn the stalks you
will leave thousands of bolls scat
tered over the land and the wee
vii will remain in them until a IA
yorable time some warm, sun
shiny day-when they will fly out
and hunt other quarters more IA
vorable for Winter Information.
Second:- In burning the o ! d
stalks you loose two much valu-
able fertilizer in organic matter,
and other requisites which a r e
worth to much too your land to
have them go up in flames.
1t is known fact that organic
matter and nitrogen are the most
needed of all things in the soils
of this section, and it must be ad-
mited that there has been little
done, so far, to remedy this need.
This being the fact, | do not think
it is the best thing to do when we
advise the farmer to burn the
cotton stalks if there is a possi-
BILE way of getting him to turn
them under the ground, for when
he burns the stalks many of the
wevil will warm up before the
fire strikes them and fly aWay to
another hiding place and pass the
Winter.
More than this, on one acre OF
ground that hag grown one bale
of cotton there are 1000 pounds OF
cotton stalks, on an average.
These stalks contain 81 pounds
of nitrogen, 9 pounds of phospho-
rus and 80 pounds of potash. Fig
uring nitrogen a t the present
cost at 22a cts. per. pound, phos-
phrous at 6 cts. per pound, and
potash at 6 cts. per pound, 1t
would take $12.59 wor h of COM
mercial fertilizer to return to the
soil what is taken out by the
burning of these stalks. Aside
from this we have the benefit Of
the decaying matter in our soil
and this is one of the greatest
needs, for without organic mat
ter we can not derive the benefit
from our commercial fertilizers.
To plow these stalks under 1t is
best to first run over them with
a corn stalk chopper, or disc har-
row and cut them into small
pieces. Following this with a two
horse, never smaller turning plow
and bury the stalks at least six
inches deep. A weevil covered to
this depth will never escape.
It would be well then that you
have your land prepared to put
in crop of Fall oats which W i |
prevent j t from washing and
teaching during the Winter, as
we'll as give a good crop Of much
needed grain. Corn land should
be treated the same way for the
same reasons.
= If these suggestions e fol-
lowed you will have started o n a
good fight to make cotton under
boil weevil conditions in 1914.

structions in this work in the

game, did not issue a pass.
But if Evers and Murphy expect
Bresnahan to jump in and deliver
with the bat, and also peg runners
out at second, they must give him
more chance. Coaching young pitch
ers is valuable assistance, and not
many men can do it, but it doesn't
help the batting eye.
Ruelbach should have won his
game. He oUtpitched Howard Cam
nitz, and would have held the Pirates
to one run if Zimmerman had not
made a lofty peg over Saier's dome
in the first round. His mates wal
loped the ball hard, but Wilson and
Booze made sensational catches in the
outfeld, and Vic Safer was robbed of
homer and triple.
Schulte's long lay-off seems to have
benefited him. Bud jumped back
strong yesterday with a triple and
double in four chances, and another
time boosted a fly to the right field
bleachers, on which Wilson made a
star stab. And the rifiht field bleach
ers at Forbes Field are some distance
from the home plate. Schultz will
probably get his old job back again.
Ward Miller has not been doing
enough smuggling to keep warm,
amassing the grand total of one hit in
his last As times at hat. Mike
Mitchell is doing his share and Tom
my Leach is playing better game in
center than Otis Clymer. The prob
able makeup of the outfeld in the
next few games, at least, will be
Mitchell, left; Leach, center, and
Schultz, right. Clymer played yes
terday and got one hit.
After tOmoTow's game in St. Louis
the Cubs return home for long stay.
The firstl of the Eastern teams, Bos-
ton, will blow into town Wednesday,
and after that we get the Giants,
