Early Cotton

Mr.. M. L. Jones of Eggville
brought to the Journal office
Monday a number of cotton plants
which be stated had been gather
ed from an acre and a quarter of
cotton which was planted on Feb
ruary 24th and is now up to a
good stand. Mr.. Jones is exceed
ingly fortunate in being able to
advance with the season by get
ting stand of cotton while his
neighbors and others were afraid
to risk/their seed in the ground.
With this start ahead of the boil
Nevil, Mr.. Jones should be cer-
tain of a crop and begin to gath
err his crop before the boil weevil
gets in its most destructive work.
The seed from his crop will no
doubt be in demand next fall,
when he will realize extra prices
for them.

Notice

The delinquent poll tax list published
for the past two weeks contained the
names of number who appeared
thereon enormously. In last week 8
issue of the Journal we published a
list Of those who had paid and had
failed to be checked as far as we
were able to ascertain, but our atten-
tion has been called to the names of
Mr.. F. johnson and Mr.. H. E. Stone.
whose names appear on the list and
these gentlemen hold their receipts.
We regret these errors, but desire to
say that where there are as many as
six thousand receipts to be made out,
more than half of them in the last few
days OF January, it is almost impossible
not to overlook checking somebody s
name. We are glad to make this cor
rection in justice to these gentlemen.

Plant Delinted Cotton Seed

When the soil and air are warm
and the soil is in good condition,
the plants from delinted seed will
come up several days earlier than
the plants from ordinary seed.
When the soil is damp and cold,
dry and cold or poorly prepared,
a good stand will frequently be
secured from delinted seed where
land planted with common seed
will have to be re-planted. Re-
planting is seldom profitable; it
means failure where there is boil
weevil. One weeks difference
in earliness often means a differ
.ence Of quarter of a bale an
acre.
Delinted seed drops evenly like
corn or grain. There are no
skips. Ordinary seed mats up in
the planter and the skips are fire.
quent. This evenness of plant
ing from delinted seed increases
the yield 10 to Is per cent. When
a hard crust forms on the soil af-
ter planting, the plants from de-
Tinted seed are so thick and even
ly placed that they will usually
lift the crust and grow. The
plants from seed having short
lint generally start unevenlv and
are spaced unevenly so that they
die before they can get through a
hard crust.
Many oil mills will delint seed
for planting for the lint. Several
gins in Eastern Arkansas have
put in delinting machines.

To Entertain Club Members

The annual Rally Day for the
Lee county Club Members will
be held in the court house in
Tupelo Wednesday,, April II.
All boys and girls who are
members of the pig. baby-beef,
poultry, corn or canning clubs
will be the guests of the Lee
. County Bankers Association on
this occasion.
The object of the rally" will
be to encourage these youngsters
to aid in carrying out the slogan,
"Mississippians Must F e d
Themselves" ;" by growing not
only more live stock. but to pro-
duce a better class of cattle, hogs
and poultry.
The exercises of the day will
open at 10 a. m. with public ad-
dresses by live stock experts,
which will continue until the
noon hour, after which free en-
tertainment will be provided by
the Lee County Bankers Associ-
alton. This will include band
music. lunches and moving
picture show at the Comus the
atre. A special form of badge
will be furnished to each club
member, which will entitle the
holder to participate in all the
exercises of the day.
After all exercises have been
concluded, pigs and calves will
delivered to those club members
who have not been supplied. All
club members who have not Sc
cured their pigs and calves should
bring crates and be prepared to
take the animals home with them
on this day.
All breeders Of the county who !
aave pure-bred pigs for sale
should have their pigs on the
ground at this meeting. Exhi-
bition pens will be provided for
the breeders who bring pigs for
sale to the club members. The
bankers are having trouble in
securing baby-beef calves for
the club members. County Agent
G. C. Mingee and Superintendent
T. M. Milan are busy trying to
buy the beef calves, but the
prices are high and few animals
can be found that are for sale at
any price.
Doubtless there are few coun-
ties in Mississippi in a class with |
Lee when it comes to the club |
movement. There will be a
membership of more than 500 to
participate in this club work |
during the year 1917.

THE BIRTH OF A NATION
C0mus Theatre April 1914
Matinee Saturday.

Matinee Saturday.
D. w. Griffith has announced
a farewell tour for his spectacle,
The Birth of a Nation" and in
selecting the towns to be played
he included Tupelo. Tupelo and
Aberdeen are the only cities to be
PLAYED in Mississippi. The local
presentation will take place Fri
day and Saturday. April 1914
A matinee will be given Saturday
at popular prices.
Mr.. Griffith in withdrawing
his picture from public view has
given the reason that he wishes
to give Intolerance" his new
super-spectacle, full sway. He
does not desire to compete one
picture against the other. Then
The Birth of a Nation" has
made Mr.. Griffith over three
millions of dollars, and if given
the proper chance Intolerance"
will undoubtedly net him just as
much.
The prices haye been greatly
reduced this season. There will
be no two dollar seats as last year.
The best seats at the evening
shows may be had for from sew
enty five cents to one dollar and
half, and at the matinees the
select seats are seventy-five cents
and one dollar. The upper gal
lery seats will be sold for fifty
cents at all performances.
Everywhere THE Birth of a
Nation" has been shown. and in
some cities it has appeared two
and three times, the demand for
tickets has been create than the
supply. There is a warningthata
if you would not be disappointed,
secure your tickets early by send
ing a money order in a self-ad-
dressed. stamped envelope to the
Comus Theatre stating just what
performance you wish to attend
and what price you wish to pay.
Tickets ordered by mail will have
the prompt attention of Mr.. Hut
Gibson and will be returned prior
to the opening of the regular
sale which takes place Monday
at the st. Clair Pharmacy.
The huge symphony orchestra,
twenty in all, will come to Tupe-
10. 1t is interesting to know
that this is the same orchestra
tha accompanied the spectacle
during its long run in New York
City, and also accompanied it in
New Orleans, Mobile, Birming-
ham, Memphis and Atlanta. All
of the effects that have caused
the audiences to wonder at the
realism of the battle scenes and
the rides of the Ku Klux KIan
will come here in sixty foot
baggage car. 1t requires the SER
vices Of twenty men on the stage
to operate the various machines
that peal forth the booms of can
non. the clatter of horses hoof-
beats and the sharp stacatto re-
port of musket fire. A special
booth, housing the two motor
driven projecting machines that
flash the five thousand scenes on
the screen. will be erected on the
lower floor of the theatre, thus
insuring picture that will be
distorted in no way, and gi wing
spectators a perfect view from
any seat in the theatre. The COM
pany mechanicians. two expert
electricians, have charge of this
miniature power house.
