Mississippi National Guard Re
cruiting Continues

Greenwood, Miss, Oct. 20
Major w. C. O'Ferrall, the
senior recruiting officer of the
State of Mississippi, who has
been stationed in this city for
the past three months, advises
that since the Mississippi Regi-
ment composed of 1900 men en-
trained for the border on Oct.
18th, a false impression appears
to prevail in certain sections OF
the State that National Guard
recruiting would be discontinued
and that such reports are liable
to retard the work.
Major O'Ferrall is in personal
charge of the recruiting Station
at Greenwood and his jurisdic-
ton extends over the stations al
Hattiesburg and Tupelo, which
covers the entire State. Five
hundred $500 more men are
wanted Immediately and recruit
ing officers are being sent Out
from these stations to visit al
important towns. Major O'Fer
rell and enlisted men have re
cruited nearly one hundred (1OO)
men at Greenwood within th'
past three months all of whom
have been sent to the front.

Scarcity of Cotton Seed
For Planting Promised

Good, early planting cotton
seed promises to be scarce next
spring, especially in the large
territory where the weevils got
in their work this season. The
mill prices being high, and cot
ton scarce, not enough seed is
being held in many localities to
plant the next crop. The Cleve-
land Big Boil seed is especially
going to be in demand. This
variety has shown up well for
several years and this year has
given especially good results
as a cotton to plant under boil
weevil conditions. The State
Experiment Station places it IN
the first rank as an early variety.
On the Mississippi prison farms
it made larger yields than any
other variety this season. It has
shown up well among growers IN
nearly every part of the state.
We would suggest that all peo-
pie having this variety where II
has produced we'll, save it care
fully and if they will report to
us the quantity they have we
will be able to put them in con-
nection with those who wish te
buy. There are some inquiries
now, but there will be little trade

ed for the service regular pullman

ience of the entrained troops.
In our interview with Major
O'Ferrall he became enthusiastic
about the possibilities of soldier
life. He is emphatic in his
assertion that young men can
secure military training and
education with the army that it
would take years in college and
hundreds of dollars to secure.
"The climate conditions along
the border and in Northern
Mexico make it an ideal place to
spend the winter, " said the
Major, coming in contact with
the Mexicans and learning to
speak their language, familiarlz-
ing one self with the habits and
conditions of the people is a
great education itself" :"
The recruits are paid from the
time they are accepted, also
their transportation, board and
lodging and wearing appeare
are furnished free.
Now is the time for all young
men to enlist to see real soldier
life on the border. It is great
opportunity to see the western
country, get a military as well al
an educational training and a
the same time make money AM
start in life.

Winter Planted Fruit Trees
Give Best Results

According to reports coming
in to the Mississippi A. and M.
College. nursery stock is now
being delivered to farmers in
various parts Of the state, and a
word of warning is being sent
out by Leonard G. Heron, the
the new horticulturist who has
recently taken up his duties in
the agricultural extension work
here. Mr.. Heron states that 1t
is not advisable to set trees at
this time. A month or six weeks
from this date will be sufficiently
early to begin planting, as trees
set during December and Janua-
ry are usually the most success
full.
In issuing this caution to the
farmers, Mr.. Heron points out
that in order to place their trees
on the market at the present
time, the nurserymen have TO
strip the leaves from the plant
A stripped" tree is never as
strong as one which has lost its
| foliage naturally. Not only il

City COnveniences
Now Used in Country

City conveniences in the coun-
try may have been looked upon
as a dream at one time, but
along with other dreams OF even
such things as submarines and
aeroplanes, it has become a re-
ality.
Not only is it possible to have
city conveniences in the farm
home, but such things are now
looked upon as necessities. All
good farmers have been looking
forward to the time when they
could have hot and cold running
water in their kitchens and bath
rooms, and have only been held
back by the cost. AS this OBJ
stacle has been greatly reduced
hundreds of Mississippi farmers
are now realizing their hopes
and installing water works in
their homes.
Agricultural engineers of Miss
issippi A. and M. College have
designed four systems of farm
water works, ranging in price
from $3.50 to S128. 80, and
will supply any one of the hum
dred thousand farm homes with
complete plans and bills of mat
erial for putting in these sys-
TENS. During Mississippi Water
| Works Week, which will be from
November 18th. to 18th, meet
ings will be held in every county
in the state, and plans and ad-
vice given to all who want city
conveniences in the country.
