The National Editorial Association
which met IN July at Minneapolis,
Mimi, was compelled on account OF
draft dodgers jumping over tie
Canadian line having made the U. S.
Government hard in respect to get
ting a party out of the United States
into our sister country, to give up
the Western Canada trip for this
year. It's presumed that such trip
trip will be taken next year right
after the regular meeting of such
body which is TO be held in the cities
jointly of Hot Springs and Little
Rock, Ark. 1t will prove an interest
piece of travel to editors living in
this part OF the country, who have
never done SO, TO take in such session
and see the famous springs at Hot
Springs. This editor has long wished
to make trip there but has deferred
it believing an opportunity would
come just 10 this way through our
National Associa ton. The cost from
Mississippi will be about like trip
to Memphis, possibly little more,
and we hope 20 see large represen
tation in the national body from the
Magnolia state. which Is something
that has not been seen in years.
Then those who are able can go on
with the party and take 10 the Ca
madam trip If war conditions permit.
There are educational advantages of
hign worth to the profession or call
ing, afforded at these conventions to
the newspapermen, and such advan-
tages should be appropriated by a
larger number of the men who com
pose the newspaper world 10 this
part of the nation, as the North and
West and East are very keen in that
respect and it looks bad for the South
to be so slimlv represented year after
year. However, we believe the at
tendance from Dixieland is growing,
but very slowly. A meeting in the
South is calculated purposely TO
stimulate 1t and let see if 1t can't be
made to bear proper fruit in that
way.

THE CATTLE TICK CAMPAIGN.
Progress Made In Mississippi This Year

u. S. BUREAU OF ANIMAL INDUSTRY.
Jackson, Miss, Aug. IL, 1917 =
Toe rapid decrease of the number
of cattle ticks found during the
month of July as compared with the
previous months indicates that SUB
stantlal progress is being made to-
ward the permanent eradication of
that pest IN this state At the present
writing there are IL counties in the
State that are absolutely free of ticks
and from which cattle are shipped
without an inspector permit.
There are more than 30 counties in
the State ia which less than 10 ticky
herds have been found during the
last months; these few ticky herds
ticky herds are being regularly disin-
fected and there is little doubt that
thess counties will be absolutely free
of ticks at the close of this year and
the services of the inspectors dlscon-
tinued
In addition to the above, the couu-
ties which took up the work for the
first time at the beginning of this
year are doing very effective work

Everything Is Sky High To Editor

Starksviile News.
When you have read through this
issue of the paper Just take time
nough to let one fact sink into your
active brain. The paper on which
this Issue was printed has cost us
approximately double what it cost us
two years ago The ink we used is
away up in price The oil that keeps
the press revolving IS up in price.
The power that moves the machinery
already high. In fact, every item of
expense is up 10 the clouds and many
are away above them, and every dol
lar of expense means just that a.
mount of money right out of our
pocket. A greet many Of our sub
icribers are in arrears on subscrlp-
ton, and we need that money in or
der to meet the rapidly increasing
cost of producing this paper. 1t is
simply thoughtlessness on your part,
we know, but our own creditors do
not recognize that word 1t don +
go with them for an instant.

EDITORIAL

With no unforeseen calamltles des-
cendiug upon the land, Mississippi
bids fair to harvest the greatest crop
this fall in her history. Estimates
show that practically everything is
in excess except oats. Corn produc
tion is going TO present a problem
that is already giving concern. The
U. S. Dept of Agriculture; the Ag-
ricultural editors and Agricultural
experts which the stale has are tigur-
ing on how to handle it to best assist
the people. In great many couu-
ties the county agent wilt arrange
for the shipping of cooperative cars
of corn on the same plan that they
have been shipping, cattle and hogs,
Irish Potatoes, Tomatoes, turkeys
etc. The corn will have to be shelled
and sacked and graded and they pro
pose TO furnish expert graders to IN
sure tan dard izat o n
thas will make the marketing
continue steady. Poor cd Greene
county has no County Agent. We
have editoriahzed upon this great
need, foreseelng this and similar de
mabds However. to make the best
practical out of a bad situation,
many of our farmers can arrange to
sell the mill and logging people what
corn their teams consume, from the
surplus sure to go into their barns.
Then the local merchants can help in
various WAYS. The editor is eating
home made new crop meal this week,
so we can see that our county wil
soon be off this market of high breaC
and can feed herself on that for the
next several months and have somt
to sell, besides other things, among
which maybe velvet bean meal if any
are enterprising enough to have ii
ground. It's bringing 81 hundred
pound sack now in Mobile as a steady
market commodity.

Outlook Now Good For BOuntIfal Crop.


A berdeen Examiner.
The outlook at this time for a
large corn and other food crops is
very promising. This will mean
good business and better times later
on. While it has been unusually dry
in some sections, the farmers have
kept the ground stirred and in good
condition by frequent ard thorough
cultivation The result has been
highly satisfactory and our people
are all smiling The crop has prac-
tica.ly been made on grass; corn and
other feeds were too high to procure.
We have had two good object les
sons, one is that stock can be work
ed successfully without so much corn
and the otner that good crops can
be made in dry weather provided
you keep working. y good dust
mulch is a. most as good as rain,
and good well cured hay is almost as
good for feed as corn.

THRIFT TALKS.
No. 80 THRIFT AND RELATION TO THE
SOIL


BY G Il Howerton. Mississippi &M Coliegi
So who loves life must next learn
soil, for soil is the nursery of life.
II this State of Mississippi ever en-
Joys the the thrift to which 1t is en-
titled we muse teach our children at
least two things Biology and Soil
love our life and knowledge of it's
nursery If we do those things we
shall live The educated farmer will
no more permit the abuse or neglect
of his soil than he wiil of his jersey
COW, and he wlll no more permit the
abuse or neglect of his rsev COW
than he will Of his wife and children
all are life to him. This is the KIND
of agricultural sentiment which was
found in the heart of great farmers
ike Washington and Jefferson.
Tits is why Jefferson could gladly
spend months working on pillow.
This is why Washington would brave
the storm to see if it was blowing
down his corn The very beginnings
OF thrift, the very fundamentals of
happiness, the very foundations of
wealth, are to be found in the soil,
and ia the union of the soil with the
true farmer-heart, as in the true
statesman mentioned above
And speaking of statesman and
the SOIL allow me to remark that our
wealth can never be conserved, our
interests protected our rights as cit
liens of the land respected, until a
goodly portion of our Legislators,
nations and state, have the above
paint of masters of industry like
like Washington and Jeffer-
son
We have come to a place, economi-
callv and politically, where the VOICE
of Commerce and Industry must be
the more often card in the halls
where our love are made-the real
patriotic today mUe than ever are
the busy men of the marts, the
workers IN the shops, the tilIers oil
the lovers OF lie and of nature
What world of wealth and mint
of money lie before US IN our ia
touchen soils of the South. Who
win see it and seize it, laugh over il
and love it, collect it aud conserve

Make Your Own Meat These Hard
Times.

Farm Il Ranch, Dallas, Texas.
Fortunate are those who looked a.
head some time ago and now have
fat hogs for he home meat supply.
This will save more expense than
many realize. But saving the high
cost OF cure meats, which would
have to be bought at stores, perhaps
some of it at credit prices, is not the
only reason for raising and curing
meat on the farm The convenience
of having supply of fresh and cured
meat saves the housekeeper much
worry and trouble When unexpect-
ed company arrives or when it is
necessary to provide meats for a
'thresher crow the keeper of the
farm home may 90 to the smokehouse
and get what she needs. instead Of
asking the farm manager to take a
team and hand from the field The
satisfaction of having meat that was
produced and cured on the farm is no
small consideration. That the meats
will be enjoyed and that every mem
Der of the family will have greater
confidence In the farm when the
home-cured meats are served need
hardly be argued. Such provisions
for better living doubtless will be
the begin ming of greater thrift and
more independence as farmers and
citizens of the state. Surely such
provisions for better living are well
worth making.

NIlle RECORD.
Owing to the great advance in the
price OF paper, we are compelled to
eXpunge from our list those who are
so far in arrears, so that we may
save the loss to us if possible. The
cost of paper now makes il an expen-
slve thing to issue, even a small pa
per, and if we continue to carry
those who are so far behind, it will be
a great loss to us. We regret to
drop any but it seems that we have
given them plenty of time to adjust
the matter if they desire.
