The dairyman who is anxious to
build up his herd quickly should
spare no pains in keeping the
calves and young heifers growing.
Those that have been poorly fed
and are stunted in size are far
more apt to have trouble at calv-
ing than the ones that have been
so fed as to be in thrifty condition
and large for their age. The Illus
tration shows a thrifty Jersey calf.

Nation Gives Haven to Birds.

Savannah, Ga, Jan. 4.-lslackbeard's
island, between Savannah and Bruins

operations In the early history of the
state, is to be converted by the govern

ter and turn north again with the COM
ing Of spring.
On summer moonlight nights huge
sea turtles crawl out on the beach on
B%lackbeard's island to lay their eggs
in deep holes in the sand. On darker
nights shadowy figures land from boats
and. lanterns in hand, search through
the tangled underground for a sign of
pirate treasure that is never found.
On stormy nights, it is said, the ghost
of Blackboard walks the sand at the
edge Of the sea Should it continue the
custom in the years to come it will be
greeted with the innocent songs of
birds.
The government now owns the is
land and has already begun the pres
ervation of the wild life. But tho de-
partment upon which this work falls
is not provided with enough money to
establish the preserve that is wanted.
and SO the state of Georgia is negotiat-
ing for the control of the island and is
planning to do the work in c%o-opcra-
ton with the government. Charles $.
Arrow, state game and fish warden,
has written to Washington upon the
subject.

Petrograd. Jan. 2.-If wal has brought
u~nspeakable horror to the Russian reo-
pie it has also brought comfort to the
imperial household of the car. Prior
to the war it was no secret that the
czarina suffered from a marked form
of melancholia with other mental pc

close intimacies of court circles that
she was drifting into hopeless insanity.

White House Social PROGRAM.

Washington, Jan. 3.-The official pro-
gram Of receptions and dinners at the
White House for the season of 1916 is
as follows:
Jan. Z. Friday, pan-American reception,
$50 y. M.
Jan. II, Tuesday. cabinet dinner, 8 p. m.
Jan. Il, Friday, diplomatic dinner, 8 p. m.
Jan. rs, Tuesday, diplomatic dinner, s
p. m.
Feb. 4, Friday, judicial reception, $3.50
Feb. s, Tuesday, supreme court dinner,
s p. m.
Feb. IS, Friday, congressional reception,
$50 p. m.
Feb. y, Tuesday, speakers dinner, 8 D. m.
March 3, Friday, army and navy recep-
ton. $50 p. m.
The elimination Of the reception on
New Years morning, while expected
in view of the marriage Of the presi-
dent and Mrs. Norman Gait, was a
keen disappointment to official Wash
ington, but still greater regret is ex-
pressed at the elimination Of the dip
lomatic reception, which heretofore has
opened the series Of evening functions.
The pan-American reception is substi-
tutcd for it.
The plan of giving two diplomatic
dinners instead of one is intended TO
compliment the European ENJOYS by
inviting the representatives of the en-
tcnte allies on one date and the central
powers rn another. The fact of these
I'VE companies coming within four
days of each other does not entirely
prevent embarrassment as to who goes
first, but it is regarded as a better
plan than to have one large dinner.

Mississippi Governor Spend ing 5000 of Special Ap-
 propriatiOn on "Junket"
CONVICT FARM SELLS
 BIG LOT OF COTTON
Bar Association Pays Beautiful Tribute to Late Charles R. Scott-Many Hogs Being Shipped to
 Market
By E. E. FRANTZ

Jackson, Miss. November 25.-(Special.) Gov. Theodore G. Bilbo Is being very se- verely criticized because of his action in drawing 5000 out of the state treasury with which to make a Junketting trip through the north and east. when the act of the legislature did not designate any such use of any part of the S25.O00 set aside for the purpose of buying land, erecting buildings and equipping the Mis- sissippi Industrial and Training school"
 The governor made demand on the audi tor for state for the 5000 and got it. He stated in his voucher for the money that your authority for this is chapter 50, senate bill No. 5T. laws 1916" but failed to mention that the money was to be used for tour. of the eastern states-if he had the auditor never would

At Gum Springs, Clay county, I have found the school teachers motto printed for public guidance: Corn. wheat, oats, velvet beans, peanuts. potatoes, cane, rape, safety first and then cotton"
 I found another teacher who felt his usefulness in the county was declining; ne wanted to try his hand in the con- veniences of city-he raises beautiful flowers, roses and chrysanthemums and he had no market for what he loved,t but I asked him the question: Have you land and experience in the city-without either you would be lost? Here you have lived all of your life, you own your farm and have railroad facilities, and you have living for yourself and can ship your products to a market think of the dan gers of a new field
 This advanced market price on all com 1nodities may prove a. blessing. The laborer has been spending all he has made, has eaten his beef and white bread without a fear of the morrow. Everything has demanded more money but the wage earner, he feels the situation is too stren- uous as it is and hopes to overcome the tribulations by hls own contrlvance; thus a lesson in management may mean more money for him tomorrow,

TALKING HIGH PRICES HAS
 CEASED TO BE A JOKE
Fly MRS. J. E. REID

Buying something to eat is very serious problem" said a woman at the market a few days ago, whether it be bread or meat This is not all talk, either, this advanced price of every ar ticle one needs; indeed, it is getting to be painful. The question is not what the market affords, but what one can af-
 ford to have. The only independent per- son today is the one who has raised something to eat at home, and indepen- dence is not prevailing. We have talked more of good intentions toward diversi- fication than we have put in practice. There are miles and miles of acreage barren, which could have raised bread, potatoes and peas, and there are thou sands of people wanting because they have waited for something to turn up. A hopeless, shiftless many-the problem of living is less anxious for them than

Communal Laundries to
 Be Established in Russia

Wilma, Russia, November 1.-Because the price of soaps and such necessities for washing. as starch, boraX and the like, has increased beyond the reach of the poor people, it is proposed to estab- fish in Wilma a number of communal laundries." for patronage by those who cannot afford to pay dearly for clearH- ness.
 Just how much the local inhabitants have been able to do for themselves, through the agency of 9 "Achieser so- cieties" or institutions of brotherly help. is indicated by the six months report of the main organization, just issued.
 According to this report, the 9 branch societies in all the portions of Wilma took in during the last half year just over $15O00 and expended little more tSan s16,O00 in helping a total of h',S4) persons.

for those who have learned to work for their daily maintenance. They are to be pitied more than censured because they have been reared in a sphere of idleness, have had nothing to stir them to action and have been wanting all of their days.
 The man who works from sun to sun and brings his supper home at nghtfail is the man who calculates on the prices.
 He knows what q. dollar one time did, and feels actually the effects of the bread and meat market The provident trucker is better fixed than anybody else, he has his supplies at hand-what if eggs do advance to 50 cents dozen?- the old blue hen cackles at his door and the churn dasher spashes busily for his milk and butter. The greater hope of diversification in this country is the school teacher. I have been impressed
 with their activity in rural districts, first in the community estimation is the preacher, then the doctor and next the teacher. The neighborhood industrial progress is governed by their activities

IMPORTANT DECISIONS

At their sitting this week the supreme court handed down decisions in two or three eases of statewide importance One of these was to declare unconstitutional the law passed by the last legislative ses- sion giving coast towns and counties au- -thority to issue bonds to build sea walls with a proviso that abutting property owners could be assessed one-half the ex- pense Gulfport was enjoined from the issuance of bonds in the sum of s200, ,O00 The court holds no adequate plan of col lecting from owners was given in the law.
 Tn another case the legislature had in- posed a 20-cent an acre tax on all timber lands held by individuals over 1000 acres The court said that is unconstitutional, the equality of taxation being one of the first requirements.
 The disbarment case against F. M Bar Der was affirmed in spite of it's pathetic features" said the court. MT Barber, a former state senator. and prominent gulf coast attorney. was caught redhanded in unprofessional conduct. bringing damage suits against railroads when no injuries had been done to the plaintiffs Burns detectives set traps for him and got him. The lower court declared him guilty, for hade him ever to again practice law in the state and the high court agrees that the verdict must stand

HOG SHIPMENTS

For the first time in the history of Mississippi hogs are being shipped by the carload to the northern and other mar kets. During the past three months six carloads have been shipped out of Hinds county, and it is understood that several other lots will go out before Christmas. The farmers have discovered that there Is big money in hogs and cattle and they are getting into the business as rapidly as possible. A short corn crop has dealt something like a black eye to the indus try, but fortunately, the potato crop was something wonderful. and they are found to make fat come almost as quick ly as does corn. Hundreds of farmers hereabouts who were ruined by the boil weevil four or five years ago, have come again into their own, and better, through producing cattle and hogs, and in due course of time they will all be at it.

The governor may have a good deal of trouble explain ing to the legislature and the people of the state just why and under what au- thority of law he used any of the s25,OOO appropriated for the industrial and train ing school. and it is well within the pos abilities that the courts may be asked to look into the matter.

The farmers of Mississippi have all made an abundance of the finest molasses or syrup this year, and are finding ready sale for their surplus at satisfactory prices There is no telling how many molasses an acres of land will make un- der best conditions, but 400 gallons is by no means uncommon. At 50 cents per gallon that means s2oo per acre, but by retail none is found at so cheap a price, and the farmer who made some to sell Is getting good money. Fortunately, the crop this year was fine and none is known to have been lost on account of the cold snap and freeze of two weeks APn.
