What Ais Mississippi?

Our views in a Condensed form
are thatWe've let a lot of timber
20 to waste and are now buying
wire fences and lumber from
foreign countries, we throw
away our grease and ashes and
buy soap; we raise too many
dogs and buy too many hogs; we
raise too many weeds and buy
too many vegetables: we catch a
five cent fish with q four dollar
rod; we build q school house and
send our children off to be edu-
Gated; we send our boys out with
q forty dollar gun and a ten dol
lar dog to hunt five cent rabbits
and ten cent birds, and lastly we
mortgage our homes to buy
four priced automobiles that we
don't know how to operate or
keep up. 1t is the cost Of high
living and not the high cost Of
living. that aiIs this country.
