WAR SUMMARY
Continued from page IL

from the Russian front, a dispatch
from Petrograd says there is indisput-
able evidence that the Germans are
bringing up large numbers of troops
on the northern part of the line for
an effort to break through toward
Petrograd.
The spring thaws are holding the
Russo Rumanians and Teutonic allied
troops in check in Rumania. In Mace
donia, near Monastir, much artillery
activity prevails. The usual artillery
duels and small infantry actions con-
tinue in the Austro- Italian theater.
Berlin reports that the raider Moewe
which has returned to home port,
after operations in the Atlantic, has
on board 500 prisoners, taken from
vessels destroyed by the Moewe.
Whether any of these men are Amer
cans has not been stated.

SOURER AND UNHAIRER SEEK

From British Service.

The reports Of the military tribunals
In London, which are still at work
wedding out men for the army, show
that there are many ways of earning a
living which are not known to the ordi-
nary public. The list Of trades repre-
sented in a days application for mill
tary exemption frequently reads like
an extract from a nonsense rime
book. For example, the report of q, tri-
bunal in the east of London shows ap-
plications from sourer, splatcher, a
smutterman, a weller, an unhairer, a
tackler and tenterer.
A bargain letter, monkey runner
and bulldogger We're among the ex-
emptions granted the other day. A bar
gain letter, it is explained, Is the man
in quarry who arranges terms with
the quarrymen as the work develops.
A monkey runner works in a steel mill,
where he conveys the pieces from shop
to shop suspended from block and tao
kle, while the bulldogger stands by the
rollers and receives the rolled metal In
a large pair Of tongs, or dogs.
An allowance man" is not what is
known in the British colonies as q re-
mittance man, but is found In the
breweries, where he is responsible for
the allowance Of beer made to every
employee twice daily. A lack tenter''
Is employed in the cotton mills, while
employees known as "jiggers" are
found in a score Of trades as wide
apart as wooden weaving and coal min.
ing. The coal mines provide many Gu,
riosities. such as kirvers, scupplers,
thurlers, lockerers. loaderers, getters
and filters.
The "masticator" belongs to the rub.
Der industry. The "mungo sorter"
deals with the manufacture of cheap
cloth from shoddy. The bank walker"
Is not employed in financial institu-
ton, but is engaged In examining the
banks Of CANALS and rivers to guard
against accidents. A "hurrier'' comes
from the lead mines. A bobby lad" 10
employed either in the mines or the
cotton mills. A "datal man" Is an az.
ricultural laborer, but pig litter" Is
not; he is employed in steel works.

HISTORICAL NAME FOR NEW
HOTEL

A notice in a recent Tupelo paper
that the Young Mems Business Club
had decided to name the new hotel
ssColbert" in honor of the last chief
of the Chickasaw tribe in this Sec
tion prompted me to have published
letters and data giving quite an in
teresting history of Colbert. YoV
will note his fathers name was Ccl
bert (French) but he was known by
his tribe as "Itawamba-M ingo."
1t seems to me the Indian nam
''Itawamba" would be more suitable
for the beautiful building that it to
stand in a part of the state so rich
in Indian history. | merely offer this
suggestion through interest.

by the white man. Many generations
Of Chickasaws, the ashes of many
captives taken from other Indian
tribes, the steel-clad Spaniards, who
had seen the Alps and the Andes,
Frenchmen from sunny France, who
came by the way of Canada and
Louisiana, and Englishmen, Scotch
men, soldiers from the North and
the South, Africans and Americans,
all sleep side by side in the silent
dust of Lee County.
It is remarkable that Lee has been
the scene Of SO much bloody strife.
Indians, Spaniards, Frenchmen, and
Americans have all been actors here
in the bloody drama of battle. We
do not advocate war, but the lesson
of history is, the noblest civilization
has always flourished on the soil OF
the battle field. Greece, Italy, Ger
many, France, and Great Britain
furnish illustrations. The battle
fields of Lee are prophetic of her
future glory. A population distin-
guished for arts as well as arms, for
intelligent industry ard enterprise
will rejoice and make merry, will
toll and weep on our own hills, and
in our own villages. The school and
the church will flourish here. Indus
try will prosper, learning, genius and
religious will be Graded in our noble
county. The galaxy of noble
name that encircle this county viii
inspire one forth to noble deeds
Monroe will speak of the present
days of the Republic. Itawamba
the name of a distinguished Chicka-
saw patriot and sage, will whisper to
u young men, "Honor and Fame
from no. condition rise. Act wei
your part, there all the honor lies.

JUNE PLANTING.
BY r. M. COTTRELL,
lAgriculturist of the Chamber of
Commerce Farm Bureau.)

The big planting for June should
be beans, peas and corn and sweet
potatoes, for hogs. Sudan grass and
sorghum can be planted for hay and
sorghum for syrup and silage.
Where forage is short millet, Ten
nessee seed may be sown for hay and
small Planting may be made Of
pumpkins and squash for early pig
feed.
The country nr,is millions Of
bushels for food of soy beans, Cali
fornia blackeyed peas and fell peas.
Already Gamers are inquiring for
surplus of soy beans to mix with
navy beans in putting up canned
pork and beans. Oil mills will COM
pete with the Gamers for soy beans.
Enormous quantities of dried field
peas will be needed for food. Late
painting usually produces the lay
Gest yields of peas.
Where other crops have failed.
90-days corn, and June corn may be
planted. Neither Arkansas nor Mis-
sissippi have to date planted enough
corn for home needs.
An acre of thin land will produce
200 bushels of sweet potatoes. This
yield will put as much gain on hogs
as 70 bushels of corn. An acre Of
land in the delta will yield 800 to
400 bushels of sweet potatoes that
will make hogs increase in wni yht
as much as 100 to 135 bushels of
corn. We recommend that everv
farmer plant an acre of sweet pnta-
toes for each five to eight pigs he
will have to fatten next fall.
June is one o fthe best garden
months. Plant California black
eyed peas, bunch beans, pole beans,
COW peas, sweet and early field corn
for the table and for canning, pop
corn, Georgia collard, Swiss chard,
New Zealand spinach, cucumbers,
okra, parsley, radish, squash and
pumpkin.
Set out egg, pepper, sweet potato
and tomato plants.
Get the canning outfit and the
cans ready.

the finding of Europen relics, thus
identifying the site of the village,

Mrs. j. R. Jones, Tupelo, Miss.
Du Pratt says: "On the 26th of
May they marched to the enemy's
fort, across these woods; and with
water up to the waist, passed over a
revulet, which traverses a small
wood; on coming out of which. they
entered a fine plain; in this plain
stood the fort of the Chickasaws,
with a village defended by it. This
fort is situated on an eminence with
an easy ascent; around it stood sew
eral huts, and at a greater distance
towards the bottom, other huts,
which appeared to have been put in
a state of defense; quite close to the
fort a a little brook, which water
ed a part of the plain"

SECRETS OF THE
HOHENZOLLERNS.'

Millions the world over have asked
two vital questions about the wal.
One is-Who started the conflict?
The other is-When will it end?
The unfolding of events since Aug
ust, 1914, has led all the world out
side the territory controlled by Ger
many to believe that the war is the
outgrowth of a dream of imperial
madness. In other words, that Kaiser
Wilhelm, his aristocracy and his mil
itary leaders determined to conquer
the whole world and bring it under
the iron heel of ~autocracy, that they
made elaborate preparations for the
crime and then set forth with fire
and sword to do the awful deed.
Very many German people could
not approve the course their kaiser
took. Some fled Germany; others
were forced into the army. Some
were imprisoned; others shot for dis
loyalty. Among those who fled was
Count Ernst Won Heltzendorff, person
al adjutant to the crown prince. The
imperial conspiracy against civiliza-
ton was too much for him.
H~eltzendorff became an enemy of
the kaiser, but not of his beloved Ger
man people. To counterfeit as much
as he could the kaiser's war. Helt-
zendorff prepared material for a SER
les of articles revealing the intrigues
and diplomatic trickery that have long
characterized the imperial German
court. These articles were translated
into English and helped to establish
the case against the kaiser as the
worlds most notorious murderer.
The Pleasantville Press has acquir-
ed publication rights in this section
and will issue the articles under the
general title, "Secrets of the Hohon-
.zollerns." This is undoubtedly the
most important feature of the year,
is in ten installments, the first of
which appears in to-day's issue.
No one in this community should fail
to read every one of them.
