stination Of a single commercial
operation
That seems even less than a
semi-recognition of the doctrine,
for the word ''unquestionably"
is a serious stumblingblock; but
it is reported on good authority
that Great Britain has studied
and digested all the facts, cor
respondence and court decisions
in the SDHngbOk case.

To Parents and Teachers.

This article is addressed to parents
and teachers instead of to the boys and
girls because the organizations of boys
and girls depend as largely on the in
terest and cooperation of the parents
and teachers as upon the willingness
and enthusiasm of the boys and girls
themselves. In most cases the atti-
tude of those in a position of control
determines whether or not the boy or
girl enlists in the campaign for a new
era of material prosperity for the farm
er. Let US glance for a moment at the
condition of the county as a self-sus-
tanning and producing community.
The cotton crop last year was less
than so per cent of normal, being be-
tween eight and nine thousand bales.
The price at which most of 1t was sold
just about equalled the cost of produc-
ton. This was practically the only
money crop planted in the county last
year; a small minority of our farmers
realized some profit from the dairy
business; but on the whole, we can, |
think, safely say that three.fourths of
the farmers of Noxubee county did not
LAKE more than half enough corn and
meat to supply their own needs, nor did
they maze enough on cotton to buy it.
Is it not true that we buy canned toma-
toes. corn, potatoes, ETC., from the
grocerymen, and use our credit to pur-
chase corn and meat from the dealer?
And is it not also true that we have
more favorable conditions for prOduc-
ing these things than those sections
from which we import them?
This situation ought not to exist in a
county blessed by almost every condi-
ton of climate soil and population.
Without taking time to deplore condi-
tons as they are, however, let us Sc.
riously consider the ways open to ar
Improvement of them.
One way, and it seems to me the
most important, is though the systema'
tic and scientific instruction of our boy:
and girls through club work. Ane
every activity of these clubs is towarC
the in~culcation of the idea Of diversified
farming, the raising of more meat
and bread, and at the least possible ex'
pense. There are three of these clubs
in this county this year: the corn clut
and pig club for boys, and the tomato
club for girls. In a number of com
munities we already have enthusiastic
|, clubs; but this is a work that SHOULD
commend itself to every right-thinking
provident parent and teacher.
: Do not then discourage the boy o.
girl who shows any desire to join thi
movement for a better county for tn
, farmer and the farmers wife. Rattle
/ furnish him, not only with the land O.
pig he or she may need. but also wit
: the moral support and enthusiasm h
t must have; and you will, in this way
t give him the chance to learn thrift
D economy, industry and more than a
else, cooperation and organization wit
his fellows for the advancement 0
some good cause.
Instruct ons will be mailed Of an cal
ly date to all teachers who have not a

.RADlUM INDUSTRY NOT
AFFECTED BY THE WAR
.,..oclntsd rcs.. corre.pondsnes.l

Vienna, Sept. 2S.-The 'radium in
dustry" Of Austria has not suffered ii
the slightest by reason Of the war, ac.
cording TO Professor Meyer head OF
the Institute for Austrian Radiun
Productions Rather, he says, the wal
has proved that Austria stands at the
head Of the world in this respect, and
win always be a big factor in the mar
ket, despite the planned commercial
war after the war
The radium coming from Colorado
and Pittsburgh, says Professor Meyer
is hardly sufficient in quantity to suf-
flee for scientific purposes through
out the world The Pittsburgh works
have in fact produced but 10 grams
since the beginning Of the war. and
now HAY ceased almost altogether.
The industry at Joachimstal Austria,
however. has gone on undisturbed.
Nor has the war resulted in any
appreciate rise in the cost Of radium
production, SO that the advanced
prices now quoted are purely the re-
suit Of speculation.
