CongratuIatiOns.

] want to congratulate the Houlka
Hardware & Furniture Company
Oh the suggestions and Propositions
as made through The Hummer for
the organization Of a rn-County
Produce Club
There sre several things in these
Suggestions and Propositions worthy
Of note,
l. The open, positive statement
There is no strings tied 70 this pro-
position, arouses the common
place question. What then are you
working for This question is an
swered by the equally positive
statement, The sole idea is to
arouse the laten spark Of enthusias-
tic Grown in Mississippi" We went
to get the people interested ia rails
ing food at home The man, or
company Of men, who accomplishes
this greatly to be desired task will
be a public benefaction.
Should the farmers Of Chickasav ,
Calhoun and Pontotoc counties be
induced to raise, within their
own bounds, food sufficient for man
and beast, the people would soon be
prosperous, contented, and happy.
This condition is worthy Of our
deepest thought, hardest work, and
greatest sacrifice.
q The "uet Together PROPOSE
ton SUGGESTS an interchange of
ideas, and mutual cooperation in
the growth and handling Of crops,
poultry and livestock.
do wish we farmers, merchants,
and bankers would realise the inn
portance of a fraternal interchange
of business ideas, m d then mutual-
ly cooperate together in the great
WORK of life each taking or giving
his proportional part Of honest toll,
and together build up our Great
southland.

Remember the Mississippi Tea1h-
ers Association at Laurel April %
80 and May /, 1915 We hope that
all our teachers can attend.
Field Day was a phenomonal
success in many respects. Over
2SOO free tickets we're given out to
teachers and pupils, and S32 adult
tickets we're sold at 25 cents each.
We want every rural teacher in
the county TO notice that there were
no contestants for two medals that
were offered to one and two teach
er schools. These medals could
have been'easily won by any boy
or girl from the smallest school in
the county if they had only enter
ed.
We desire to call special atten.
ton to the Silver Loving Cup do
mated by abb Bros, Drug Com
pany for the best team Of three
from one school in spelling This
firm believes that the Field Day
movement is the best step that has
been taken to arouse interest in
school work, and shown their ap-
probation in a substantial way
We hope that other firms in the
county viii volunteer uLeir service
in like manner. The loving cup
win become the permanent proper

Report Of the
Grand Jury.
April TERM. 1915


We the Grand Jury for this term
Of the Circuit Court beg leave TO
submit to your Honor this as our
final report
We have been in session four
days and have, to the best Of. our
ability, inquired into all matters
which we were informed it was our
duty to investigate We have sum-
moned 119 and examined 93 Of
said number. We have turned into
court z true bills of Indictment We
have referred back to the various
Justices Of the Peace of the County
8, matters for trial by them, believ-
ing these matters can be handled
by them and the County Attorney
as effectively as they could be in
this Court, and without any cost
whatever to the County We are
glad to say that we find law viola
tons in every part of the County
very much on the decrease and
practically all violations Of the
criminal law being handled in the
Justice of the Peace Courts, hence
the small number Of indictments
returned by US Is largely due to
this.
we have examined the County
Home or poorhouse and find the
inmates well pleased and kept; they
seem to be wei cared lor and to
have all the conveniences one could
expect
We have examined the County
Jad and find il kept in a neat and
clean manner The new Jail is a
credit to the county.
We have looked into the Public
Road conditions. We fnd that the
Board OF Supervisors have recently
maugurated a new plan Of worh4s
the roads by discharging all ,on-
tractors and placing the rod. ~
each beat directly under the .upef-
vision OF the supe. visors. The work
being done by the conviets seems
to be of a thorough and lasting na-
ture, such as cutting down nils,
broadening roaas, etc However
we find that some pats Of the
roads Of the county have not been
worked any for several months and
in many places tney nave gotten IN
to very bad condition We be-
heve that the roads covered by the
present work are put in a much ber-
ter condition, but we suggest to the
Board of Supervisors that some Of
the roads are getting in . very bad
condition, and while it is well to do
such work as is being done We
think they should keep an eye on
the entire district and Keep the
roads patched up in a passable con-
didon until they can be reached
with the convicts and worked in a
proper manner.
We have done such other work
and made such other inquiries as
we believe. under the courts IN
suuchons. it was our duty to do.
We heartily thank your Honor
for the instructive and helpful
charge given us; it greatly enlight-
ened US as to our duties and mater
tally assisted us in performing them.
We thank the Disuict-Attorney
for his assistance and kindness to
US in our work, likewise his counsel
and advice.
We have examined the books Of
the county officers and found same.
neatly and properly kept, and We
desire to thank the County AttoE-
ney for his valuable assistance rem.
dered us in the discharge Of our du-
ties.
Now having completed our Ia
bors, we pray your Honor that We
may be finally discharged

Opening of Scenic Highway Delayed
Two Years

County commissioner Matt Hickey
returned the first of the week from the
west side where he was in conference
with commissioners OF King and Sno-
homish counties. The six miles in
Snohomish county which remains to
be completed, the Snohomish commits
sioners say, cannot be completed this
year and quite likely not next year.
The county has no money available and
the people have refused to vote bonds.
King county voted to spend about a
quarter million dollars on her part Of
the road, of which $175,000 has al
ready been spent. The Chelan county
had intended to complete her portion
of the road but as both Snohomish and
King county have stretches to complete
and as there is no knowing when this
will be completed the Chelan county
commissioners wisely decided to ex-
pend their road money on highways
that will be of some immediate benefit
to the public.

Home Destroyed by Fire

A fire Of unknown origin broke out
in the second floor Of the old Echo
building Wednesday evening and COM
pletely destroyed the household goods
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Julian Magyar, who
have been making their home there.
The blaze was discovered about nine
o'clock and in very few minutes vol
unteer fremen had the hose connected
up and were pouring water into the
building. with the result that the fire
was quickly extinguished. 1t had
spread so rapidly, however, that prac-
tically all the contents were destroyed.
There was no fire in the range at the
time and Mr.. Magyar is at loss to un-
derstand how the blaze started. The
house had been occupied less than a
month, and only last week a piano was
moved into the rooms.
The damage to the building was all
confined to the upper floor. Both the
contents and the building were in
sured.
