irg at nine O'Clock. Death came as
easy as falling to sleep. He had been

ton was not considered dangerous, but
on account Of his age and weakened
condition a professional nurse was pro-
cured He seemed much better the
day Of his death, as asIight rise in tenn

for several days had not returned.
Mr.. Buck entered the ninety-first

HONE GARDENING
CUTS down BILLS
But It Must Be a Real Garden, Kept
Planted Through Season,
Says Hastings.

Atlanta, Ga. - (Special) - "The
greatest obstacle to permanent farm
prosperity in the south is the store
bill made for food and grain that
could and should be grown on every
southern farm" says H. G. Hastings,
president of the. Southeastern Fair
Association and OF the Georgia Cham
Der Of Commerce, in an interview on
agricultural conditions in this terri
tory.
"a real garden" says Mr.. Hastings.
properly prepared and planted, and
kept planted throughout the season,
will help more to decrease store bills
tsan anything else the farmer can do.
There are lots of what term one

a few struggling rows of beans, a few
dozen cabbages and tomato plants,
with some watermelon off to one cor

art. Our southern folks generally
don't take the garden seriously, when
as a matter of fact the Night kind Of
a garden, containing a full line Of
vegetables and kept busy all season,
is reasonably sure of furnishing at
least half the living Of the family.
81 have never seen a one crop sec
ton, regardless of what particular one
crop was grown, that did not have a
poverty-stricken look, with poor school
buildings, churches and homes.
81 have never seen a diversified
section that did not have the signs of
prosperity sticking out all over it.
And on practically every farm in
these prosperous diversified sections
the home garden has an honored
place.
81 haven't a thing in the world
against the supply and general mer.
chants. but if all Of our people would
take the home garden seriously, hall
of them would have to go out of bust,

The passing away Of Mr., Jesse Buck
at the ripe age Of %nine-one removes a
landmark in Noxubee. For seventy or
more years he had lived in this county,
and to the present generation he typi-
fed the far past. He came here when
the state and county were young and
conditions far different in every way
from those OF today. He saw all the
changes that the Civil War brought
about and that modern development
wrought in our daily lives, and the
changes in the habits Of thought and
views Of the people Of NoXubee since
Andrew Jacks0n's day.
In a quiet but quite an effective way
he contributed much to some Of the
changes, and always for the better.
Never mixing in politics and combining
his attention strictly to his plainly
marked lines Of duty, he was an inau-
ence Of weight in the community, In
his school work, in which he and his
devoted wife were coIIaborators, he
more directly Influenced the lives of
those who thus cama in contact with

lity his influence was that silent irAu-
