BAN ON PUBLICATIONS NOT ES.
SENTIAL TO NATIONS
WELFARE,

1t is announced by the War In
dustries Board that the present
scarcity of paper calls for a retrench-
ment in the publishing of books of
kinds deemed not essential to the well
fare of the nation.
Properly administered this should
prove a wise and benefcient war
measure. There are certain brands
of literature that can we'll be spared,
and their removal from the book
counters will undoubtedly serve to
stimulate the sale of books that are
really worth reading. To print a
catalogue of those that can be dis
pensed with would make serious in
road on the country's scant supply of
paper. 1t would include ponderous
essays by scatter-brained theorists
on the rights of property, the labor
and capital problem, the redistribu-
tion of swollen fortunes, the sin of
possessing more than forty dollars
and others themes that are mastered
only through practical experience.
Among the unnecessary brands Of fic-
ton would be listed novels of mat
uralism," in which everything dis
gushing or not worth talking about
is set down with painstaking care;
society novels dealing with myths
like the monkey dinner" and de-
signed "relentlessly to expose the
shams and foibles" that do not ex-
list; mushy, tales of "cheery optim-
ism" in which black is painted white
for the ediication Of the weak-mind-
ed, and stories that contain fearless
arrangements" of somebody or other
and prove conclusively that some Of
us are rich while others are poor.
Above all, it is the duty of those
charged with the task of eliminating
improbable. literature to keep con-
slant watch and ward lest some mess
of yoked maunderings disguised as
quaint, humorous philosophy" elude
their vigilance.

WHAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION
MEANS.

When you subscribe to a Liberty
Loan you subscribe to the sentiment
that the world must be made safe for
democracy and subscribe to the fund
that is to make the world safe for
democracy.
You subscribe to the belief that
innocent women and children on I'M
armed ships shall not be sent to the
bottom Of the sea; that women and
children and old men shall not be
revisited and tortured and murdered
under the plea of military necessity;
that nurses shall not be shot for
deeds of mercy, nor hospital ships be
sunk without warning, nor hopsitals
and unfortified cities be bombed or
cannonaded with long-range guns.
You subscribe to the doctrine that
small nations have the same rights
as great and powerful ones; that
might is not right, and that Ger
many shall not force upon the world
the dominion of her military masters.
You subscribe, when you subscribe
to a Liberty, Loan, to the belief that
America entered this war for a just
and noble cause; that, our soldiers in
France and our sailors on the sea
are fighting for right and justice.
And, you subscribe to the Ameri-
can sentiment that they must and
shall be powerful, efficient, and vic

WoRKNIEN'S- COMPENSATION
BOARD MAKE A GOOD
SHOWING.

In a report on the Workmen's Com
pensation Board filed with Governor
Stanley, State Inspector and Exam
liner Nat B. Sewell says that the COM
pensation law has fully justified it's
passage, that the board has perform
ed good services, and that it's bust
ness management is worthy of COM
mendation.
The report covers a period begin
ming April 1, 1916, when the board
first began operations under the act
of 1916 creating it, and extending to
July /, 1918.
The receipts of the Office since its
creation amount to $46,052.88 and
the expenditures $26,O25.2S, leaving
a balance of $20,027.SS on hand. The
receipts accrue from per cent. tax
on employers carrying their own in
surance, 4 per cent tax on insurance
premiums and an annual appropria-
ton of $500.
Sixteen persons are on the pay
roll of the Workmen's Compensation
Board. Of the number nine, includ-
ing the members of the Board, are
employed regularly. The remaining
seven are employed at the pleasure of
the Board.
During the existence of the Board
26,318 accidents have been reported
to the Compensation Board. OF this
number, 6,067 were compensation
cases and $3.50 of these have been
settled. Only 1913 cases have been
contested, and of this number, only
seven have been appealed to the local
courts. Of the seven appealed, the
Compensation Board has been affirm
ed by the courts in two cases and the
other five have not been passed upon.

PALESTINE AS A JEWISH HOME.

NEW YORK, Sept. Con the eve
of the Jewish New Year, which be-
gins at shutdown Friday, Sept. 6, a
message from President Wilson ex-
pressing his "deep and sincere in
terest" in the progress of the develop
ment of Palestine as the Jewish home
land was made public here Wednes-
day by Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, for
mer President of the Provisional
Zionist Committee. The President
wrote to Rabbi Wise.
" I have watched with deep and
sincere interest the reconstruction
work which the Weizmann Commits
sion has down in Palestine at the in
stance of the British Government and
/ welcome an opportunity to express
the satisfaction / have felt in the pro-
gress of the Zionist movement in the
United States and in the allied coun-
tries since the declaration by Mr..
Balfour on behalf of the British Gov
eminent, of Great Britian's approval
of the establishment in Palestine of
a national home for the Jewish
people, and his. promise that the
British Government would use it's
best endeavors to facilitate the
achievement of that object, with the
understanding that nothing would be
done to prejudice the civil and reli-
gious rights of non-Jewish people in
Palestine or the rights and political
status enjoyed by the Jews in other
countries.
81 think that all Americans will be
deeply moved by the report that even
in this time of stress the Weizmann
Commission has been able to lay the
foundation of the Hebrew University
at Jersualem, with the promise that
bears of spiritual rebirth."
DIR. Chain WeiZmann, President of
the English Zionist Federation and a
noted scientist in British Government
service, was selected by that govern
ment as head of the Zionist Com
mission to Palestine to make a survey
of the Holy Land. This appointment
was made after Great Britain had
issued its Palestine declaration. The
commission includes Zionist repre-
sentatives from France, Italy and
Russia and has received the fullest
support of the Zionist organization
of America under the leadership of
Justice Louis E. Brandeis of the
United States Supreme Court and
Judge Julian W. Mack. of Chicago,
President Of the Zionist organization
of America. The cornerstone of the
Hebrew University in Jerusalem was
laid on July "a by DR.. Weizmann and
his associates.

Dear Friend Jack:
I'm resting today, SO l thought
l would drop you a line just for
old times sakes.
Well, how are things going
back there? Are you still punch
ing the keyboards, able to get
soda water and practicing (pres-

here, Jack. They have beer and
wines and champagne and every
thing imaginable: mighty cheap,
too. The little towns where we
have been stationed are all full
of cafes which are open on the
streets. They tell me that it is
the custom all over France.
THE weather here has been
fierce all winter where we we're
located but it is getting much
warmer now and really looks like
spring.
Uncle Sam certainly isn't los
ing any time over here. Every
body Is busy. In fact we have
moved seven or eight times since
we arrived here. 1t is getting a
little more exciting, too, and
things are not a bit monotonous
now.

GROW MORE WHEAT.

Reports from different parts of the
state indicate that wheat is to be.
come an important crop in Mississippi
| am sure that Grenada County
farmers are going to raise their share
this year. Thirty six thousand acres
were planted last fall, but this fall
an effort will be made to grow at
least 1OO, 900 acres. Our farmers
should plant at least two acres to
the mule. 1t a be raised sue
c~essfully here, as for example | am
giving a comparison in yields from
different parts of the county and
state:
Miss. Exp. Station, A. & NJ. College
u acres planted, yield above 20
A. Olson, Elliott, Miss, % acres
PLANTED Weld rs % bushels, R. Jones
Grenada. Miss. 5 acres planted, yield
about 26 bushels.
Every Grenada County farmer
realizes how hard it is to buy flour,
then he should be patriotic and grow
enough for his family, also a bit to
sell. In other words wheat is not
only a profitable crop but it is a
patriotic one and since the land can
be utilized for other crops after the
wheat is harvested, it is a very at
tractive proposition.
There are plenty of threshers IN
the county to handle our crop and IN
case enough wheat is grown IN the
county we can get a -four mill located
here.
Every farmer desiring to plant
wheat should make arrangements
to get seed as soon as is possible as
it might be hard to get later on. AT
present we can buy enough from oui
own farmers and | believe that if the
farmers buy a cooperative load OF
seed they can get them cheaper. Fol
that reason and for your W goot
only | am asking every man who Il
going to plant wheat this fall to write
me. stating acreage going to plant
amount of seed wanted, or amour
of seed for sale etc.
