Home Orchard for No"ubee.

Sometime ago Prof. A. B. Mckay,
in charge of the Horticultural depart
ment of the A. & M. college, made a
talk before the Noxubee County Live
Stock Association on the Home Orchard.
Many who heard this talk became very
much interested in growing more and
better fruit for home consumption.
Mr.. D. Cresswell, of Prairie Point,
brought in a number of app'es from his
young orchard, and had them before
the speaker. They were perfect in
formation because they were from
trees free of diseases and worms. Mr..
Cresswell sprays through the winter
and early spring. For commercial pur-
poses Noxubee county is perhaps not a
suitable section for growing fruit, but
any of the many types of land will pro-
duce an abundance of good fruits for
home use. Today there are not six
good orchards in the county; by this |
mean orchards that are inteligently
cared for all the year. Every farmer
should have an orchard of at least a
quarter of an acre in size. The trees
should be sprayed two or three times a
year; they should 'be pruned annually
and cover crops should be grown in the
orchard every winter, and some soil
building crop through the summer.
Prof. Mckay is anxious to locate one
or more demonstration orchards in
every county in Mississippi this fall.
These orchards will be put out under
his supervision about the first of Nov
ember. MIR. E. V. Yates has asked for
one to be put out at his home in Macon.

Gasoline in Jackson Same Here

If Attorney General Collins
wants to engage iii some trust
busting that will be really worth
while, we respectfully suggest that
he make some inquiries concerning
the price of gasoline in Jackson.
Several weeks ago gasoline was
selling here at twelve and one half
cents per gallon, and the various
oil companies were engaged in a
spirited competition.
Today gasoline sells at sixteen
cents per gallon, the companies
will not make contracts for future
deliveries, and a further advance
to seventeen cents per gallon is ex,
pected within the next few days.
The several hundred automo.
biles owners in Jackson annually
consume about $4,000 worth OF
gasoline. There is no reason why
they should pay more for car fuel
than other cities.
In Atlanta, for illustration, gas
oline sells at twelve cents per gal
lon. In Detroit it is sold at ten
cents per gallon
The question of freight rates
does not enter into the compari
son, for Jackson is as fayorably
situated as either Atlanta or D.
tr0it.
If Mr.. Collins will take his mind
off of alleged railroad mergers.
Sons of Plato, and similar things
for a few days, and look into thl'
gasoline question, he is likely ,
find some things that are highly
interesting. jackson News,

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

ltwas probably noticed that the
High School Notes, which appear
usually on Friday, were not pub
lished till Monday this week.
The editor was on the job all
right and the notes were written,
set, proved and dumped, but
there was no room for them
hence
The clocks stopped Sunday
night and were several hours be-
hind time all Monday. They are
running right now, though, but
the bells ring several minutes
late. The High School has an
up-to-date system of electric
clocks which are regulated by a
big clock in the office. When
they stop it is no small matter to
get them regulated again.

in his power comfort to his aging grand

along the rails, he lay sleepless in his berth

So buoyant so vital, had been the older
life that as yet Francis could not bring
himself to believe death was come, at last,
to end it.
AS the wheels beneath him clicked off
the tagging miles, he strove to recall,
word by word, his last intimate talk with
his grandfather.
