BLACkLEG PREVALENT.

Jackson, Miss, Aug IS. - Among
other services performed by the coun-
ty demonstration agents, employed
by county boards of supervisors
in cooperation with the federal
farm demonstration service, other
than advertising and consulting
in regard to soils, soil preparation,
fertilization and drainage, is in the
care and preservation of live stock.
There is scarcely a week that passes
that reports are not heard of county
agents being called to different parts
of their territory, for Lnoculation or
vaccination of stock. This is done
where a veterinarian may not be east
ly accessible, and where it is impor-
tant that situation be rnet promptly.
1t is understood there is consider
able of this kind of servic in demand
at this time for preventive the spread
of blackleg among cattle. The disc
ease has appeared at a. number of
points in the state, and the prompt
work and readily given advice of the
county demonstration agents has help
ed very materially in preventing a
spread of the malady.
Z, According to the men who have
made study of this disease, cures
are rarely, if ever, effected, and the
fight of the veterinarians and owners
is to curb the spread by vaccination
of cattle exposed to infes ton. The
only cost attendant is til at for the
pellets or vaccine to be sed, which
averages about Is cents per head.
Speaking of cattle diseases, cases
of anthrax are reported from the Ter
ry neighborhood, in lower Kinds. and
today President J. d. Gordon of the
Board of Supervisors, With parties in
terested, were in conference with
Commissioner Blakeslee, ex-offieio
head of the live stock sanitary board.
1t was decided that the only action
possible was to institute effective
quarantine, inoculate expose animals
and segregate those suspected of be-
ing exposed to Infection 1t is be-
lieved that the situation can be easily
handled

LOVERS DOOMED TO THE
ELECTRIC CHAIR.

WinstOn-Salem, n. c., Aug. 49,
Mrs. Ida Bell Warren and her former
sweetheart, S. P. Christy, must face
death in the electric chair next month
for the murder of the woman's hus-
band. The murder, which occurred
just a year ago today, was long con-
cealed. Last April the body of War
rem was found in Muddy Creek. His
wife in a confession implicated Chris
ty, who had returned to Texas. A
counter-confession by Christy impli-
Gated Mrs. Warren in the plot to do
away with her husband.
Mrs. Warren will be the first white
woman to pay the death penalty in the
history of this state. The story Of her
love affairs, her power over men, was
told in detail at the trial which ended
early this month. Not only was Chris
ty a plant tool in her hands, but it
was shown that her influence extended
to her own son-in-law, Clifford Stone
street. Hardly of age, this youth was
implicated in the murder through his
aid to Mrs Warren in disposing of the
body. Three years Imprisonment is
the punishment meted out to him.
Mrs. Warren made a final attempt
to clear her skirts of the murder when
she took the witness stand in her own
behalf. She testified that G. ]. War
rem, her husband, had been killed in a
fight with Christy at the boarding
house which she was running last Au-
gust. She denied having any part in
the murder. Young and progresses
ing, she faced the court fearlessly.
Ida Bell Warren first met Christy
at Grand Saline, Tex There they
lived as man and wife until Warren
came along. Warren and she eloped
to Winston-Salem and were married
She was conducting a boarding house,
when Christy appeared in Winston
Salem a year ago last July. He
stayed in town a month. On the night
of August 18th, the husband found
Christy with his wife, and fight en-
sued, according to her story.
All three of the defendants have en-
tered appeals, claiming that the evil
dence introduced did not justify the
verdict Meanwhile, Mrs. Warren and
Christy are facing the death sentence,
which will be carried out September

CORN EXHIBIT is PROPOSED.

NatcheZ, Miss, Aug. 1S.-Believing
that the Natchez district will compare
favorably with any section OF the
country in the raising of corn, and be-
lieving further that the wonderful
strides being made in this direction
should be brought to the attention OF
the outside world, and in a manner
to bring the best results to the sec
ton.
The Alfalfa Land and Realty Com
pany proposes to secure as strong
corn exhibit as possible of this years
crop, and forward same to San Fran
cisco to be placed upon exhibition
during the progress of the great eX-
position where it may tell its own
story in no uncertain manner of the
wonderful possibilities of the lands
in both Louisiana and Mississippi.
Every planter throughout MISSISSIPPI
pi and Louisiana is proud of the prog
ress being made by his state and sec
ton, and there is not one single plan
ter no matter how small an acreage
he cultivates who will hesitate to
send three ears of corn, to help swell
the exhibit and show to the world
that our people in Louisiana and Mis-
sisSippi are in the agricultural game
to win.
In order to increase interest in the
matter and give the planter some
chance to realize something for their
cooperation the Alfalfa Land and
Realty Company is offering prize of
$50 for the best six ears of corn.
A first prize of ten dollars will be
given to the planter sending in to the
Alfalfa office the best three ears of
corn grown in Louisiana and five dol
lars will be given for the second best
three ears of corn sent in from the
same state.
Ten dollars will be given as first
prize for the best three ears sent in
from Mississippi and five dollars for
the second best three ears sent in
from the same state.
The decision and award of prizes
will be announced the latter part OF
October, and every effort will be
made to get this display of corn into
San Francisco by the middle of DC
tober.
The effort if successful will give a
tremendous boost TO the lands in both
Louisiana and Mississippi and will
show the outside world that these
two states have not only the lands
but likewise the planters.
1t is safe to assume that every
planter in each OF these two states
will do his full part in making the
display creditable, even though he
may not be interested in the prize
money itself.
The proposition to boost the corn
growing possibilities oDthe two states
only become known today and numer
Gus planters throughout the county
have declared that they will cooper

GERMANS TAKE
LAST OF TOWNS

LONDON, England, Nov. 30.--
Not one important town in all
Serbia now remains in possession
Of the people Of that country. The
tide of war has swept away every
garrison in any town of consider
able size and wherever the invad-
ers have gone, they have occupied
the countryside.
The Germans have taken Pri-
send, according to today's des-
patches. This is the last import
ant Serbian town in their path to
Bulgaria and Turkey.
Monastir, the principal town of
southern Serbia, which for some
time has been menaced by the
Bulgarians, has been evacuated
by the scanty Serb garrison which
held it. It's occupation by Bull
garian troops is now only a mat
ter Of hours.
The Teutons claim that the Ser
bian campaign is completed, as
they hold practically all Serbia
with their allies, the Bulgarians.
