ESTABLISH STOCK FARM
INDUSTRY is GROWING In IMP0R.
TANCE IN THIS STATE.
Farmers Sending Buyers to Other States
to Get Cattle for Breeding Pur.
poses-some Raised Cattle
Bring Fancy Prices.

Jackson.-Many farmers In South Mis-
sissippi, especially those with extensive
land holdings, are busily engaged with
preparations to enter the stock raising
industry on a large scale. They have
sent buyers 10 the large stock farms
of the West and North in quest Of blood.
ed cattle for breeding purposes, and
crop preparations for the eomiSg year
are based on the needs they will en-
counter in the new industry.
The fact that cattle raising can be
made to pay in Mississippi has been
strikingly illustrated by the fancy prices
recently obtained for cattle raised in
this state in the st. Louis market. One
recent instance of its remunerative
feature can be cited from Copiah coun-
ty where j. NJ. Mathis shipped a herd
OF ten Devon cattle to the New Orleans
market, and obtained the top price of
Z Ia cents per pound, the herd netting
over $50 Pc head.

COTTON CROP REDUCTION.
Farmers Will Plant Smaller Acreage
Next Year,

Jackson.-State and federal agricul-
tural experts employed in Mississippi
are unanimous in the conclusion that
there will be a decided reduction in cot
ton acreage during the coming crop
year, som of the estimates OF reduc-
ton being as high az ten per cent.
The steady spread of the boil weeyil
is of course responsible for the contin-
uance of Mississippfs agricultural evolu-
ton, and the heaviest acreage reduction
during the next crop year will be in the
central and eastern counties where the
farmers were hard nit by the ravages
Of the pest during the past year. Many
Of the farmers in these counties would
not believe that it was impossible Cor
them to raise cotton in accordance with
old methods, and paid no attention to
the advice so freely given by the crop
experts. Statistics from interior towns
in this territory, showing cotton receipts
far below those Of former years elo-
quently tell the story of their perverse.
ness.
In a number of the southern counties
farmers are making preparations to go
in for truck farming OF a much larger
scale than in former seasons

IT IS 4 SERIOUS SITUATION
INSANE HOSPITAL is FILLED To
OVERLOOKING.
Legislative Refusal to Recognize Prevail
ing Conditions Is Responsible-l,5oo
Patients Being Cared For.

Jackson,-For the past year the n
saue hospital has been filled to over
flowing, and it Is estimated that there
are now nearly 100 insane persons con
fined in the various county jails of the
state because they cannOt be admitted
at the hospital.
The lawmakers were advised at their
last session of this condition of affairs,
and that the o~vercrowded condition
would doubtless become more acute be-
fore the next session was held, but the
urgent recommendation of DR.. Stewart
for an appropriation to use in the con
struction of additional ward buildings
was not fayorably acted upon. The ex-
cuse offered was that appropriations al
ready made were in excess OF prospective
revenues for the ensuing two years.
The allowance for the current BIENNIAL
period is $4,000 per annam, based on
a per capita of st4o, with 1850 patients
as tie basis. At present more than 1900
patients are being cared for.

WOODROW WILSON
DOES HONOR TO EIGHTH SON
CHOSEN PRESIDENT.

Celebrates seth Anniversary Of His Birth
-Bou6res Blazed the Way as
Train Passed.

Stanton, Va.-Virginia welcomed
home Gov. Woodrow Wilson, the eighth
OF her native sons to be chosen president
OF the United States.
From the moment the prcsident-elect
crossed the state line at AlcNandria until
be reached the little parsonage here
where he was born So years ago, the re
ception given him was n Of great en-.
thusiGsm, noisy demonstration and spec
t]acular display. Escorted by troops CT
cavalry military companies and a loren
light procession in which practically the
whole town participated, the governor
and Mrs. Wilson motored through the
streets Of Stanton to the home Of the
Rev. DR.. A. n. Frazer, pastor OF the
Presbyterian Church, where the Rev. Jos.
R. Wilson, father Of the president-elee
lived in 1886.
With Mrs. Wilson, the president-elec
paused for a minute on the illuminated
portico Of the house and greeted Dt.
Frazer. The band struck up Dixie"
ITS fine to be back again" exclaimed
the president-elect as he stepped indoors.
Suffering still from the effect OF his cold,
he retired Immediately to tho room in
which he was born, where the chief pro,
gram Of the jubilee vas carried out.
Outside the crowds surged the streets,
which were alive with color and flags
and electrical display. From far and
wide, native children Of Stanton hod
come to greet their fellow-townsman.
Except for az informal visit a year ago,
Mr.. Wilson had not been here since lie
was three years old.
St&mton was not alone in celebrating
the arrival in Virginia Of tie distin-
gyishcd visitor. Bondres blazed he way,
fireworks shot across the skies and red
lights threw a festive glare at all sta
tions along the route, though the train
glided by most Of them without stopping,
