with the diversified farm
ing campaign being conducted through
Forrest county by well known agri-
cultural experts from the Information
al Harvester Co. and various agricul-
tural departments under the local aus
pices of the Commercial Club.
The rain has not prevented the
speakers from making the trips as
scheduled, but it has prevented q
great many Of the farmers who are
interested in learning how to grow
more than one crop year from at
tending the meetings. The trips are
by no means in vain, however, as many
farmers have braved the inclement
weather and met the speakers at the
sixten places visited during the day.
Accompanied by prominent busi-
ness men of this city the speakers
left the Commercial Club about 8
O'clock this morning in automobiles.
They carried charts and various
data concerning farming that were
used during the day in illustrating
the possibilities of agricultural prog
ress in South Mississippi. Hundreds
of pounds of literature on genera
, farming, diversifcation of crops, grow
, ing alfalfa, corn. market products, etc.
was distributed through the country
At Normal This Afternoon.
The speakers will assemble at the
Normal College this afternoon at 4:3(

is to wind up the Forrest county cam

"The farmers are not altogether +

ROW OVER SMITH
CARPENTER FIGHT
Only Another Mill VIII
Settle Controversy Over
Unsatisfactory Ending
DOUBT THAT SMITH
F0ULED HIS MAN
Bv The united Press.

LONDON, July l7.-Only another
fight between Gunboat smith and
Georges Carpenter will settle the bit
ter controversy involving all England
today as a result of the unsatisfactory
ending of the scheduled twenty round
battle for the white heavyweight
championship OF the world at Olympia
last night.
Few agree ON just what happened in
the sixth round of the fight when Car
pentier went to his knees. and an in
slant atterward the Frencnmans Sec
onds jumped into the ring and Smith
was disqualified for hitting Carpenter
while he was down.
Those at the ringside do not even
even agree as 10 whether Carpenter
was fioored by a blow from Smith or
clipped down upon missing a vicious
swing directed at the Americans jaw
Neither do they agree as TO the blow
Smith is charged with landing after
Carpenter was down. Some authorities
declare Smith caught himself and the
blow did not land at all Others say
h. struck Carpenter, but that the blow
was very light and could not possibly
Nave done any damage.
