Here is something some of us folks
did not Know before. Some one wrote
Prof. Massey, of the Progressive Far
mer, for an article ION termination of
seeds as affected by the age of seed. =
This person had bought garden seed
for last years planting; but the drouth
prevented his using them. Itseems he
wishes to Know how long they will keep
good. In substances Prof. Massey
says: (supposing the seed good and
fresh in 1879 Most of the seed bought
from first class house will still be
good, after years keeping onion seed
are not to be trusted, tho some of it
may terminate well, the second year.
Beans and peas, pepper, carrot, corn,
eggplant, orka, and satisfy, are sure
" good for two years, and generally
longer. Asparagus, lettuce parsely
and spinach are. good for three years or
longer. Radishes, cabbage, collard,
celery and turnips are good
for five years. Beets, cucumber. melon,
pumpkin, squash and tomatoes seed are
rood for five years and longer, beets
Sometimes ten years. The vitality of
any,seed will depend largely on the way
it is keep. Too dry place, or, hum
id place, either, will be detrimental to
the vitality OF seeds. Perhaps many of
our readers have some good seed left
over, Y like uneaten scraps, may prove
real helpful at last, this year. Give

John Henry Chambers, who
was carried to Jackson last Fri
dap on a charge of murder. has
returned home being released
on q SIS, 600 >bond. Some time
ago :. Mr.. chambers went to
| Vicksburg in his car. and q
stranger in Vicksburg asked
him to let him ride with him to
jackson. Mr.. Chambers readily
consented, and when they
reached a point near Bolton, the
automobile turned over and the
stranger was badly hurt, and
died q few days afterwards at a
| jackson sanitarium. An affida-
Wit was made against Mr.. Cham
bers charging him with murder,
lit being alleged that he beat the
man up with a pistol. Mr..
Chambers claims that he is limo

mans death resulted from the
injuries received in the accident.
Saturday was an eventful day
all over the state, the day having
been named by Director Thomas
as War Saving Stamps day. In
Brandon, the occasion was prop
erly observed, young ladies be-
ing on the streets, and among
the business men all day selling
Thrift and War Saving Stamps.
A prize was offered by Roy L.
Fox, the patriotic cashier Of the
Rankin County Bank. for the
Young lady selling the greatest
amount of stamps. The prize
went to Miss Delta Stevens, she
having sold more than $50 worth.
The days sale for the town a.
mounted to something over $500.
It was a. glorious day, indeed,
made memorable because the
fierce struggle between the con-
tending forces lin battle was be-
gun on that day, and, we trust
when a decision is reached will
mean the ultimate end.
The News understands that
the impression prevails among
some of our citizens that w. G.
Talbault & Co., the contractors
for the sidewalks. failed to give
| a maintenance bond. This is an
error, and for their information
we will say that a maintenance
bond in the Unitel States
Fidelity & Guaranty Company
for the sum of $1,000 for the
proper maintenance of the
walks and against all defects for
q period of three years from the
date of acceptance, was given
by the contractors, and is now
and has been since the complet-
ion of the work on file in the
mayors Office. Mr.. Ort. a men,
Der Of the contracting firm. has
been formally served with no.
tice of the bad defects that have
developed, and in case he fails
to correct the work within the
time specified in the bond, the
mayor and board of aldermen
will proceed against the bonding
company, which is legally bound
to put the walks in first-class
condition.
