Nothing has been said in this
issue in reference to stock rails
ING in this county, and yet
large quantities Of cattle, sheep
and hogs are raised here an
nually for the outside markets.
There was a time when vast
herds roamed the hills, but as
the settler crowded in and cur
tailed the range the cattle hold
ings had to be cut down. Still
quite number Of men are en-
Gagged in cattle raising, and
the bunch grass fed beef of the
Okanogan ranks as the best
that is to be found on the block
in the city markets. The breed
of cattle is being improved
steadily, and eventually those
engaged in the business will be
raising only thoroughbreds,
both for beef and dairying
purposes. Large flocks of
sheep are still owned in the
county, and the shipment OF
wool and mutton every year Is
a source of large revenue to
those engaged in the industry.
It is only of late that much at
tention has been given to the
raising of hogs, but those who
have tried it find the business
very profitable. More pork
has been shipped out OF the
county this year than ever be-
fore, and these shipments are
certain to increase from year
to year, for the conditions are
most favorable in this county
for success in hog raising.

a few years ago modern con-

Grated by the municipal col

Is paying its way. The other

MRS. WILSON BREAKS
UP SLUMS IN CAPITAL

Washington, May 19.-When bills
Transforming Goat Alley and Snow
Court, two of Washington's worst
slums, into parks, are introduced in
Congress this week, Mrs. woodrow
Wilson will have accomplished more
toward eliminating poverty, vice and
disease in the capitals slums than any
other Presidents wife has ever done.
Her recent Summing trip, on which
she was accompanied by Representa-
tives Kahn and Curry, is the reason
for the determination Of Congress to
clean up Washington, whose vile al

The killing occurred in the office of
DR.. A. S. Applewhite, prominent local
physician, who will be one of the

Although the prosecution endeavored
to show at the former hearing that
Helton had been lured to Applewhite's
office, no conclusive evidence on this
point was offered.
After his first trial at Canton six
months ago Curtis was released under

who has devoted much OF his time and
personal resources to the campaign
OF education in behalf of currency re-
form, has thus far made little Roadway
and feels rather discouraged over the
prospects. He will put the subject
squarely before the bankers at their
annual convention, and ascertain
whether they regard the movement as
OF sufficient Importance to justify
them in joining forces in the cam
paign.
The subject Of state bank inspection
will also be brought prominently be-
fore the West Point convention. The
bankers of the commonwealth realize,
in view Of the large number of bank
failures in Mississippi during the past
eight months, that law of some sort
on this subject will doubtless be enact
ed at the regular session January, and
it is probable that committee will
be appointed to appear before the
house and senate committees on bank
ing and offer suggestions.

RAISING TRUCK IN
MARION COUNTY

Columbus, Miss, May 20.-It seems
that a great majority of the farmers
of this section are still afraid to risk
any money in cotton crop, as they
say that many boll-weevils have al
ready been found on their farms.
Much truck farming is being done in
Marion county this year, and, judging
from the unusually large shipments
of cabbage from this place and the
fair price that is being received for
same, it seems that the farmers who
are raising that commodity are realiz-
ing more money from it than they for
merly made on cotton previous to the
coming of the foil weevil.
The Marion County Truck Growers
association has held number of meet
ings in order to stimulate interest in
| truck growing, and much interest and
enthusiasm are being manifested in
the work by the farmers of this coun
! ty. 1t is believed that the efforts OF
the association combined with the sue
cess of the truck growers this year
will insure much larger crop of this
sort next year than has ever before
been raised in this section.
