A GOOD SELECTION

1t is probable that W. W. Ven
able of Meridian Miss. will be
the new member of Congress
from that diitrsct. Mr.. Ven
able made his race as support
er of administration policies that
means the support of Mr.. Will
sons shipping Bill.
The shipping bill is the most
important measure before the
present session of Congress. 1t
is of vast Importance to the
southern people. The cotton of
the south is now clogging he sea-
ports, and there are now no
ships to take it to the Liverpool
market. Since the outbreak of
the war there has been little free
shipping room for American
products. In the very nature OF
things ship room was first uti.
lized for ammunition and provi-
sions for the European armies.
Ammunition and provisions will
get the right OF way until th Q
end comes. The soldiers cannot
eat either lumber or cotton,
therefore lumber and cotton
must wait.
The cotton crop of the south in
1914 would have fetched many
millions more if America had
had ships. The same is true of
the cotton crop this year. The
United States must be in a po-
sition to have the cargoes of its
citizens hauled to any part of
the world. The necessity for
supporting the Wilson bill is so
apparent that we deem it useless
to discuss its merits further.
Commercial Appeal.

Cut Your Store Bill
Down One Half

Tens of thousands of farmers as well as
town and city folks cut down their store
bills one-half last year and saved money
in spite of generally short crops and re-
duced wages.
Absolutely millions of dollars were
saved and countless families lived better
than ever before in the face of the cotton
crisis and general business depression.
How were these burdensome store bills
cut down? BY the real nioney-saving
power of good home gardens, rightly
planted and kept planted and tended
through the season.
Hastings 1916 Seed Catalogue tells how
to cut store bills down; tells about gar
den and farm seeds of kinds and quail
ity that cannot be bought from your mer-
chant or druggist. It's full of garden and
farm information. It's free if you ask
for it. Write for it now. H. G. HASTINGS

lie had beaten In 4 couple of plays TO
the extent of about $50, was keeping a
wary eye on him. THAT boy is going

seemed to sidestep at exactly the right
moment.

AT the end of an hour he had
treblcd his stack and had thrown on
top of the wine he had drunk al the
banquet several drinks OF whiskey.
The effect of them were to further

Twice he paid $50 to draw TO two
small pair and each time came out
with fullhouse.
IA little later, the contractor, who
sat at my left, opened the pot on my

equaled his own. and called. fig

afraid raise would drive him out.

boy two and the third man stood pat.

come to him in the draw the contrac-
tor bet S25. The boy glanced at his
hand, counted out 500 in chips and
pushed 1t toward the center.

Let's make 1t good pot, he said.
The owner, of the pat hand, being a
foxy player, merely called. the con-
