The Field Meet

The North East Mississippi
Meet here last Friday was a sue
cess in every way. While not so
many attended as was expected,
there was a good attendance and
the competition was keen in all
lines.
The church ladies are to be
commended for the way they
handled the lunch problem, and
the committee of business men
did exceptionally well in making
preparation. The crowd was
we'll handled and no untoward
event occurred to mar the enjoy
ment of the occasion.
All schools were represented
and competed in one way and
another. but Okoiona and Tupelo
were eavily in the lead. At the
end of the day Okolona was
known to have "a points and Tu-
pelos21, with 5 events to hear
from. 1t is almost certain Oko-
Iona has defended the cup.

On account of the great inter-
est that has been taken in Vel
vet Beans by the farmers or this
territory it will be interesting to
note the results shown by exper-
iments made in cattle feeding by
Mr. B. M. Allen, who owns a
large stock farm in Alabama.
He fed his steers in three differ
ent lots. Number / was fed IA
pounds of Velvet Beans and 80
pounds Of Corn Silage a day.
Lot number 2 got 7 pounds of
Cotton Seed Meal and AZ pounds
Corn Silage. Lot number 3 got
z pounds of Cotton Seed Meal
and so pounds Of Sorghum ST.
lage. The lot number that was
fed Velvet Beans made the
cheapest gain and sold for 35
cents more than the other lots,
the prices received being 1915
for lot one, and $940 for lots
two and three.
This should be good news for
our stock men who are this year
planting Velvet Beans to feed
their stock.

Federated Club Meeting

AAN~A vi - AhHo ONii'S SiAS Ihil ~
annual meeting of the Federated
Clubs in this district. The fed
Grated club movement is a coop
erative undertaking, sublime in
its ideals, a belief that united
womanhood can accomplish great
things. Men have long ago
found out that because of feder-
ated clubs, there are better
homes, better schools, and a
broader intelligence for woman.
The Pontotoc meeting was
largely attended by enthusiastic
club members from all over the
district, and was presided over
by our very efficient district
President, Mrs. G. J. Houston.
Distinguished guests were, State
President Mrs. E. F. McGehee,
of Como, and Miss Pauline Orr,
of Columbus. The exercises of
the federation, which con sisted
of well planned and beautifully
carried out program, were held in
the Presbyterian church. Ac-
cording to reports made, the La
nier Club was one of two clubs
in the district that had done
work for the Political Committee
and was the only club in the dis
trict that had established a week.
ly story hour for children.
The adoption of the Suffrage
platform was unanimous. Great
stress was laid on the Press de-
partment. Each club is urged
to edit a column in the county
paper. The conservation of our
national resources appealed to
me, especially in the preserva-
ton of bird life. Communities
were asked to build bird houses
and bird baths in the cemeteries.
The dollar endowment fund is
to enable the federation to Sc
cure enough funds to operate on
the interest rather than the prin-
cipal, and in the event any meas
ure needs publicity, the fedora
ton need not be embarrassed as
it is now in the case of the In
junction and Abatement act, for
the safeguarding of our young
boys. This measure needs pub
licity, and certainly the interest
and cooperation of every woman
in the state. California is the
only state where this bill has
been passed, and the red light
district of California is fast be-
coming a thing of the past.
At one O'Clock the session ad-
journed to the spacious home of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Bell, where a
delicious five course luncheon
was served to fifty delegates.
Mrs. McGehee insisted that
club member attend the Council
MeetingFof the General Fedora
ton of Womens Clubs, that will
be held in New Orleans, Apri
9-14. The Council is composed
of the board of directors, past
presidents of the General FEEDER.

 Artie and Mollie Standlee write from Cotton, Calf, saying. I've like Cali fornia fine, better all the time. But it's some hot here, sometimes. Three weeks ago it was 121 in the shade. The hot weather damaged the oranges and also the vegetables. Old timers say it was the warmest weather they have had for 30 years Last summer we were in Idaho and it was the coldest summer for 30 years. So we are al ways at the wrong place at the wrong time.

My brother, Columbus, and fam fly came out here some two months ago from Fort Smith, Ark, and they were on the sick list, his two boys were chilling, but they are all getting along fine now and working every day. So you see what Northern Colorado has done for them, perhaps Carroll county, Arkansas, would have done the same for them. With best regards to all.
