not be accepted as true.
Miss Barker appeared much
stronger today than yesterday. Her
face had some of the delicate coloring
that was noticeable when she was
giving her testimony before the
grand jury last spring.
GIRL rs ATTRACTIVE
Her hair was combed much more
attractively today In place OF being
combed straight back and "plastered''
down. it was parted in the middle
and was daintily curled. She did not
wear the black silk hair ribbon that
yesterday gave her the appearance
of a schoolgirl.
Her lips were very pink. She
wore the brown skirt she appeared
in yesterday. Her waist was white
and her throat was exposed.
Although she was not the same
young woman in appearance that she
was when the grand jury's investiga-
tion began, she could still be called
attractive.
A book was produced by Keyes.
Miss Barker identified 1t as a large
book in which Mrs. Josie Rosenberg.
proprietor of the Jonquil, kept the
names of girls who frequented that
place.
Davis objected to 1t being intro

Judge Bledsoe decided that the fact
that such a book was kept might be
admitted, but the book should not be

METHOD BY WHICH FARMERS
MAY SECURE GREATER RETURN

Richmond, Va, Feb. est is we'll
known how helpless the farmer is
when he goes alone into the market
to sell his products. If the supply
happens to be large he drives a losing
bargain; if it isn't he meets a price
fixed regardless of his expense and
labor.
The uncertainty and difficulty OF
marketing is always serious draw
back. Our lettuce growers have just
had a distressing experience" writes
a friend from Florida, they could not
get their crops into the market for
enough to pay the freight SO they had
to turn their cattle on to the finest
lettuce grown at the very time when
people in the north were paying al
most prohibitiye prices"
This is but one of the numberless
instances that naturally lead the
farmer everywhere to ask: Whats
the use of diversifying crops or of
increasing yields If these cannot be
sold at fair proft?"
We have clearly reached the point
when this problem of marketing must
be studied in thorough-going way
The future of the farmer depends up
on his getting a proit-yielding price
for his products.

TUPELO MISS. FRIDAY, JANUARY "a, 1913
Basket Ball at Y. NJ. c. A.

The Y. M. G.. A. basket ball
team added new laurels when
they met and defeated the Uni
versity of Mississippi in two of
the best games ever played here.
The local boys deserve a great
deal of credit for the fast team
they have developed, and too
much praise cannot be given
them. 1t will be remembered
that the Tupelo boys had a good
team two years ago when they
played in the Mercantile build
ing. That year they met and
defeated the College of Physi-
clans and Surgeons, at that
time the champions of Memphis.
Also the A. e M. College came
and met their Waterloo. This
is the first time since then that
they have been able to get to-
gether owing to the lack of a
suitable place for playing. but
now with the fine gymnasium at
the "Y" and the gallery for
seating the spectators there is
no reason why we cannot be rep
resented by as good a team as
there is in the state. Of course
they will need the loyal support
of the town, for they cannot
bring good teams here without a
big expense. The crowds Mon
day and Tuesday nights were by
no means as large as they should
have been. Monday night it
rained and no doubt kept many
away. We should feel proud of
our BOYS and show our appreci-
alton by going out and roofing
for them.
The game Monday night was
full of spectacular goals made by
Capt. Laney of the "Y" team.
The score was 81 to Is. and
Laney scored 21 points. For the
University Capt. Haxton played
the best game. making some
long throws from the center of
the field. Lilly. for the "Y,"
loomed up like a giant over their
crack center, and out jumped
him every time. Whitesides, X.
Reese and Maynard deserve
credit for their good guarding
and passing of the ball.
The game Tuesday night was
too close to be comfortable all
the way through. 1t was nip"
and tuck" and our boys
tuck" In this game Laney
played his usual good game, and
Maynard showed up some better.
The winning goal was thrown
just a few moments before the
whistle for time up. Final score
was 25 to % in favor of the "Y. )"
The lineup for both nights
was as follows:
Y. NJ. C. A. Univ. of Miss.
