ENCOURAGES FARMERS
TO GROW WHEAT

1t is our purpose to encourage
farmers to grow wheat as a money
crop, but it is hoped that farmers of
this state, especially the small farm
ers, will produce enough to supply
their home needs. Flour mills will
be in reach of practically every wheat
growing community by this fall, and
there will be no difficulty in getting
the wheat made into good quality
-four.
While wheat growing in Mississippi
is in its experimental stage there is
little risk to run in planting enough
for home use. If the seasons should
be so unfavorable as to cause the
wheat to rust badly, the farmer still
has pletny of time to plant corn,
cotton, or other crops and the land
has been benefited by having a cover
crop on it during the winter.
1t is not only good management,
with the present price Of -four, to
produce our wheat at home, but ow-
ing to the world shortage of wheat
the government is in great need, and
it is the patriotic duty of our farmers
to help increase the production. In
figuring out how to Offset the short
age, the United States government
has requested each state to grow it's
pro rata share. Mississippi's allot-
ment is 100000 acres, and with every
farm doing its part, this amount of
land can be devoted to wheat without
disturbing the balance of our regular
cropping systems. Plenty of seed can
be secured from reliable seed houses
Or from men whose names will be
furnished by the Extension Depart
ment, Agricultural College, Miss.

TWO YEARS IN BED

Mrs. Wilson Says She Had Given

"For two years l spent all my time

a rolling chair, and during that time

Wilson. Mrs. Wilson is well konwn

did. | was very weak and nervous,
and at times had those dreadful
smothering sensations to the point
| of fainting. l had dreadful head
aches. severe pains in my back and
over my kidneys, and my joints
ached all the time. For two years l
had to live entirely on boiled milk,
toast and soft boiled eggs, and even
that didn't digest well, and would
sour on my stomach. l didn't know
waht it was to get a good nights
sleep. took one kind of medicine
after another nutil our house was
almost filled with empty bottles, but
instead of improving l was getting
worse all the time. Finally they took
me to the hospital for treatment, and
l lay there for five long months, but
even that didn't make me well. 1t

husbands wages to pay my doctor
and drug bills-our drug bill alone
amounted to S14 or SIS a month,
$1O8.

failed to help me, and l had about
given up all hope when M day my
husband brought a bottle Of Tanlac
home with him and asked me to take
it. He said he had been reading and
hearing a lot of good things about it,
and didn't see any reason why it
shouldn't help me. / was confined to
my rolling chair when / began taking
it.

life. l can eat anything l want

Tanlac is sold in Grenada by the
End Class and Corner Drug Stores;
and by one established agency in
every town.

HE GOES TO FRANCE.

by Randolph Leigh, Editor and Man
ager of the Sheridan, Wyoming,
Daily Enterprise.)
You will not hold the great cause
cheap
Nor swagger to your deeds;
But where the fork of death flames
leap
And men go down like weeds
You will be steady-you will smile,
Mindful of home and right the while.
Not glibly will we speak of you
And what your going meant,
Nor prattle as the needless do
Of struggles great intent.
But in the twilight's aftergolw,
Our hearts will speak-and yours~will
know.
And if for you there's no return
And years stretch drear ahead,
Since thru you freedoms watchfres
burn
Wen count you nobly dead,
And thank God for you there in
France
Young lion-heart of the shining lance.
Let everybody boost the campaign
to make November Thrift Month"
all over the South. Begin putting
aside some money now to use on one
of the seven forms of thrift recon-
mended for every farmer. You are
asked to get ready to do one or more
of these sever things during this
month:
l.. Pay off all debts so as to go on
a cash basis next year.
2. Start a savings account in some
bank or credit union.
3. Buy a mich cow or brood sow.
4. Install home waterworks and
lights.
. s.. Paint the house.
g.. Set out an orchard.
Z. If a tenant, buy if possible a
small farm and make the first pay
ment on the purchase price.-Pro-

morning that there would probably
be another mail out on the 18th and
another on the 18th, which would

OFFICER ACCUSED OF
BRUTALITY In ARREST
Is PLACED ON TRIAL

No decision was reached in the
hearing yesterday by the Civil Service
Commission in the case Of DoneciO
Fernandez against Albert Machado.
W. T. Rawlins appeared as attorney
for the complainant and Sheriff Chas.
II. Rose acted as attorney IOI the de-
PENDANT policeman.
Evidence introduced in the testi-
mOny of two eye-WitneSses, as we'll as
by three photographs made of the COM
piainant, tended to prove that Officer
Machado must have given Fernandez
at least one heavy blow in the face.
The witnesses, F1lipe Gabriel and An
doy Morino, both of whom were al
rested at the same time, testified that
they saw the policeman strike Fer.
nandez twice in the face.
Fernandez himself testified that he
was not in the house which was raid.
ed, but that he was on his way from
the fertilizer company to the canning
company, looking for a job; that he
had been employed by the Spalding
Construction Co., but was at the tim ,
of his assault out of work; that he Giu
gamble, at times, but that he was not
gambling at the time of his assault
and arrest, but was merely passing
the place, and was caught with the
others and knocked down by the Off.
Ger, who struck him over the eye be-
fore he spoke to him.
Officer Machado held that the
bruised condition OF his arrests face
was due to a fall he had hau on the
coral.
