GET RID OF HUMORS
AND AVOID DISEASE

Humors in the blood cause inter-
nal arrangements that affect the
whole system, as well as pimples,
boils and other eruptions. They affect
all the organs and functions, mem
branes and tissues, and are directly
responsible for the readiness with
which some people contract disease.
For forty years Hoods Sarsaparilla
has been more successful than any
other medicine in expelling humors
and removing their inward and OUT
ward effects. It is distinguished for
its thoroughness in purifying the
blood, which it enriches and invigor-
ates. No other medicine acts like it,
for no other medicine is like it.
Get Hoods Sarsaparilla today.
Insist on having Hoods.

The trial OF cases began Thursday morn
ing, when the traverse jurors reported
and the two traverse juries were en-
paneled and organized as above.
The two traverse juries have been kept
busy continuously since then, and indi-
cations now are that the criminal docket
may not be reached until next week.
EDEN vs. WESLEY.
The first case tried was that OF the town
OF Eden against the town Of Wesley. This
was pauper case, the basis OF the action
being small bill for pauper supplies fur
nished to the family OF Royce Il. Coffron
by the town Of Eden, but the real impor-
lance OF the case lay in the determi-
nation OF the pauper residence OF the COT
from family.
1t was admitted that Coffron had aderiv-
alive pauper settlement in the town OF
Wesley in 1902, and that he received
pauper supplies in the town OF Eden in
1909 and later. Under the law, II person
lives in town for five consecutive years
or more without receiving pauper sup
plies, he gains pauper settlement in that
plaintiffs in this case to prove that Coffron
had received pauper supplies within each
fve-year period, and for this purpose
they relied upon bill for medical services
to the Coffron family rendered by the city
physician in 1905.
The defence set up was that the medical
attendance was not furnished as pauper
10 3 H. led - he
within the meaning of the law, but was
furnished by the physician to be paid for
in labor by Coflron. The entire case
rested on this point.
Deasy q Lyman appeared for plaintiffs
and Attorney General w. II. Pattangail
and d. E. Hurley appeared for defendants.
The case went tot the jury late Thursday
afternoon. The jury remained out until
10 o'clock, reporting sealed verdict Fri
day morning, finding for plaintiffs.
WOOSTER VS.. F1sKE.
The case OF Ernest W. Wooster against
Allen A. Fiske, an action for trespass, was
opened Thursday afternoon. The case
involved the question of right Of way
across the plaintiffs property at Washing
ton Junction.
The way was used by the defendant to
reach piece OF property owned by him,
formerly known as the Kief place, near
Simmons pond. The action for trespass
followed. Defendant failed to establish
private right Of way, and relied princi-
pally upon evidence to show that pub
lie way had been established by long and
continued use Of the way by former
owners Of the land now owned by him,
and by the public generally.
The plaintiff claimed an interruption to
any way that might have existed, that its
Common use was by consent OF the former
owners Of the Wooster land, and that
part OF the road next to the county road

The Southern herald., 1915-06-11

There are farmers in Mississippi
who are throwing away good
money because they pay no atten-
ton to the guarantees on iertil-
izer and commercial ieedings
stuffs that they are buying. |
this to be a fact from letters recen-
tly received at this Office.
For instance; there are two
grades Of cotton seed meal auth
orized by law and High" is worth
approximately So 00per ton more
than prime" How many buyers
pay any attention whatever to the
grade when they 60 to bny? Very
few indeed, and not to do so a
serious mistake.
Cotton seed meal that does not
run as high as 6.18% Of nitrogen
must not be branded cotton seed
meal, but Cotton seed feed" or
a Mixture Of cotton seed meal
and cotton seed hull" That is
what the law says and the man
ufacturers and dealers are within
the law when they offer it on the
market.
Prime" cotton seed meal must
contain not less than 6.18% nitro
gen, Of if stated in feeding value,
not leess than 1870 Of proetin.
This grade is selling at from
$500 to $4,000 per ton, possibly
retailing for something above
this figure,
A sample Of a popular Cotton
Seed" feed was sent to the State
Department some days ago that
guarnteed 20 per cent of protein
and the man who brought and
used it paid $500 per ton. If
"Prime" meal with 800 of protein
was worth $4,000, what was this
feed worth?
That feeder was paying almost
twice what the feed was worth
and all because he paid no atten-
lion to the guam teed on the tag or
or sack. 1t is possible that he
bought the feed" and though
he was getting cotton seed meal.
They look very much alike.
The manufacturer or dealer who
will sell the feed" meal for cotton
seedis sheet to, and should be,
prosecuted.
A recent bulletin by the State
Department Of Agriculture at
Jackson explains this matter and
can be had Tor the asking. The
people must wake up to the i'm
portance Of knowing what they
buy and insist on getting what
they pay for.

One of the specialists Of the de-
partment, who has been giving
attention &c the divesifcatin Of
crops in the South, recently de-
fined diversification as follows:
Few people understand what
"diversifcation" means. | had
farmer say to me not long ago,
Il want to diversity, to quit cot
ton; what crop shall ! charge to?"
| heard some time ago of a sugar
planter in Louisiana who wanted
to diversity, He quit sugar and
planted 500 acres of tomatoes
Surley, thatis diversifcation with
a yengence, Now, my friends.
we have got a good thing in the
South ii we will only go to work
and make the agriculture self sup.
porting. The departments plan
is to foster the production of home
gardens to encorage thrift by
teaching people to can fruit and
vegetables for home USE as they
do in every thrifty community.
10 have farmers grow their own
corn, oats, hay, peas, beans, po-
tatoes and some cane or sorghum
for sirup from a reasonable indust-
ry in poultry, hogs, and cattle.
OF corse this would reqnire
some reduction of the cotton
acreage unless more acres were
taken up, but under this plan we
would establish a live stock in
dustry sufficient to utilize the
waste products oE the farm and
to make productlyeits waste land.
On every farm there is waste
land winch could be made pro-
ductiye with live stock.
This is Il pure business proposit-
ion, but one Which mas been sadly
neglected in all Of our southern
territory, Bulletin.

The people do not devote enough
attention to the public schools Of
the state. After they employ teach
ers to look after their children the
matter Of responsibility ceases to
be the view entertained by the
majority Of the patrons OF the
school. This is not as it should
be. But we believe that the schools
should be operated as a business
institution, the public being the
stockholders. We do not mean
Eysthis any interference on Their
part in the management. But if
the proper interest were taken in
the schools by the patrons the
teachers from the principal
down would feel that their efforts
were more appreciated and they
would give better service.
