Hope in Rural Credit

There ought to be a great hope
OF good to come from the rural
credits legislation, says an ex.
change. The bill is not perfect;
it may have to be amended again
and again; but it does propose to
put out money to the farmer at 50
cheap a rate that he can afford to
spend it upon improvements, and
in that way work himself into n
position of atliuencc. This is the
first legislation designed to heir
the borrower; and it should be of
great help. 1t holds out promise
of making farming a profitabl,
business; and the time may come
when young people, in order tc
make q living, if not indeed a for.
tune, will be seen leaving tn,
cities and tiocking to the country.
If that comes to pass, we shall be
able to say that the land is AT
last In a permanently healthy con
dition.

Legislation Suggestion

Mississippi's example in max
ing bold to lcgislatc the tick out
of existence has attracted attcn
ton the world over. This is as il
should be, for it is the first com.
mOnwealth to pass a state wild,
compulsory tick free law. In ac-
cordancc, knowing that by the
end of next year there need be no
Longer fear of bringing the finest
herds of cattle in Mississippi, the
flow of migration will be untram
meled and the farming resources
of the state will be wonderfully
increased in quick order. Mis-
sissippi will indeed find that en-.
forced tick eradication is one of the
greatest blessings ever bestowed
by legislative enactment. This.
however, Mississippi already is
well aware, for as a result of tn,
past few years vigorous exter.
mination of the tick, and those
sections of the state enjoying the
advantage of tick freedom have
progressed wondrouSly fast OF
late, with no drawback to the cat
tie industry. -Modern Farming.

CLIPPINGS
What Are We Waiting For?

Most Of Us make life a constant post
ponement Of happiness. We look upon
our toiIing. our denial, or sacrifice as a
necessary IN happiness to be undergone
in order that We may take ease and
pleasure, be happy, as we think, in the
future. W. look upon the present as a
necessary purgatory, a period of pain
ful experience, for an anticipated para
disc of enjoyment to come. We carry
this so far as even to deny ourselves
the JOY Of living today in the belief
that by doing something else today we
will have an opportunity in the future
to express our love.
But happiness is something Of an art
and like any art, requires practice for
attainment. How a we suppose that
We will be happy If we have never
practiced being happy? And, besides
from that consideration, are those
things which trouble us, which make it
difficult to be happy, so limited in their
number and scope that at some time
in the future they will cease to rise up
and trouble US. If we postpone happi.
ness we may end by never having it at
all.

Hay interests viii Organize?

AS the result of a general meet.
ing of the hay interests of north
east Mississippi held at West
Point the past week the South.
ern Hay Growers Association
will be organized. including the
states of Mississippi and Ala
lama.
After discussing the matter
thoroughly it was decided to ap-
point a steering committee whose
duty it would be to further the
plans of the movement with the
view of effecting it's organiza-
ton at the earliest possible
moment. 1t is planned to form
a stock company with a capital
stock Of $40, 900. The shares
will have a par value of $40 each
and a thousand shares will be
sold. Sixty-five shares were
contracted for at the West Point
meeting. Following is the per-
sonnet of the steering committee:
Mr.. w. h. Stokes of Macon,
president of the Mississippi Hay
Growers Association; Mr.. W. G.
Banks of Columbus; Mr.. S. L.
Beach of Tibbee; Mr.. G. H.
Brunson, A. and M. College, Mr..
". L. Donaldson, Strongs; Mr..
George Phelps, Okolona; Mr..
William Roberts, Tupelo.
The meeting was presided
over by Mr., Stokes, president of
the Mississippi association, and
Mr.. w. H. Carter of this city
oficiated as secretary. The pur-
pose of the meeting was ex-
planned by Mr.. Stokes and he
was followed by Mr.. J. F. Dug
gar, director of the experiment
station at the Alabama Poly
technic institute at Auburn,
The organization will be a COM
bination of the Alabama and Mis-
sissippi forces, including grow
ers and shippers of hays. The
purpose of the organization is to
improve marketing conditions,
prices and for the mutual pro-
lection of the shipper and
grower. Local graders, fur
nished by the National Hay
Association will grade the hay of
the members and it will be mar
keted on this official and author.
itative basis, thus protecting the
shipper in the matter of weights
and grades. The association
will sell the hay of it's members
on a commission basis; it will act
as sales agent for It's members
and collect claims, conducting
litigations and other matters
arising from transactions ii
marketing hay and supervise
the grading of hay at shipping
point, destination or en- route
when necessary.
The plan is strictly a cooper
ative one designed to widen anC
expand the hay markets, and tC
act for and protect the members
in all transactions and matters
in connection with the growing
and marketing of hay.
When the stipulated amount Of
shares are sold the association
will be formally organized with
the election of officers anc

the wal should end in its favor, it

1t is obvious of course that, if
