SECRETARY OF AGRI-
 CULTURE HOUSTON
 APPEALS TO FARMERS

1n an appeal to the farmers to put their savings into Government War Savings Certificates, Secretary of Agriculture Houston today said:
 Ut is the patriotic duty of every citizen who is in a position to do so, to invest in War Savings and Thrift Stamps and thereby help the Nation to win this wal. The purchase of ev- en twenty-five cent Thrift Stamp, is definite contribution to this end.
 "War Savings and Thrift Stamps foster the habit of thrift in small ex- penditures, make it possible for near ly every one to purchase what are in reality small government bonds, and offer a unique opportunity to the people at once to help their govern ment and to economize conveniently for the purchase of the best invest ment securities in the world.
 ''To win this war, we must have both men and money. know that every farmer wants to do everything in his power for the Nation, in this day of trial. He will not only labor to produce the necessary foodstuffs but will also generously contribute o1 his means to make it possible for the men at the front to achieve victory I am confident that the farmers ot the land will not permit any other class to take the leadership in sup porting the government in this crisis financially or otherwise"

WHAT YOUR QUARTERS WILL DO

If you have an idea that your quar- ters won't help win the war and do lots of service when invested in War Savings and Thrift Stamps, just look over this table. The little bonds are translated into terms of soldiers equipment. Here's how they stack up:
 1 Thrift Stamp Five bullets l War Savings Stamp, pair of shoes War Savings Stamp Two woolen
 shirts.
 War Saving Stamp, 4 winter under
 shirts.
 War Saving Stamp, steel helmet
 and $1.14 over.
 1 War Savings Stamp, 1 shelter tent
 and part payment on overcoat.
 Those quarters will do the govern ment lots of good. And remember you are not giving them away, but lending them at 4.27 per cent interest

TUPELO

Cotton picking is about over and the farmers are getting quite busy preparing for another crop. The roads are getting in fine con- dition again and the numerous cars raise cloud of dust. Bud Ferguson and family were wei come visitors of MT. and Mrs. R. M Marian Saturday night and Sunday. Ed Morris and wife welcomed an- other 10 pound baby boy at their home on the 3rd. The little fellow bears his fathers name in full. Miss Sina Posey continues very low.
 Mrs. Pritchett, of near Jonesboro, is visiting her daughter, Mrs. Idell Cole, this week. Tom Marian and wife spent Sunday afternoon at his brothers. Mrs. Marian will leave for Little Rock in few days to visit her daughter.
 Seed potatoes are very scarce in our little town-in fact there are none to be had. A good many people are losing hogs from cholera. Better get busy and vaccinate.
 Eggs are plentiful, hence the price has dropped, but the farmers are reaping benefit by eating eggs and saving meat.
 Walter Ferguson of Simmons Switch took dinner with Mir. and Mrs. Richard Marian Sunday. B. F. Simmons and wife entertained the young folks Saturday night with dance.
 The speaking Saturday was well attended and $4,800 worth of war savings stamps were bought by our patriotic people. Mrs. Banks talk was fine on the conserving of food Emmett Taylor was here in his new car Sunday.
 Chester Corley, of Auvergne passed through Tupelo Sunday, go-
 ing across Cache river. Mrs. Corley
 and children accompanied him as fai
 as her mothers, where she spent the
 day.
 l Miss Bernice Taylor, of Grays
 came up Saturday and spent the
 night with her sister, Mrs. B. F. Sim. mons.
 We were requested to ascertain tht sentiments of the people here in re gard to the candidate speaking. Af ter talking with some of the men or
 the subject we think the majorit. would favor it.
 We hear good deal of talk of th' light seen in the north on the night O
 the 9th. Some say the stars an'
 stripes could be seen; others say i looked like blood. Suppose those wh'
 saw the light tell us through the In dependent just how it looked. l L. E. Phant, of Diaz, we miss you

WORK IN CoLoRED SCHOOLS

Miss Ellen M. Young, supervisor of the colored rural schools of Jack son county, put in two very busy days here Wednesday and Thursday of last week. The work that is being done by her is worth while. She goes about her work in very quiet man. ner, trait that is peculiar to all Tuskegens.
 While here the organized boys agricultural club, a girls agricultur- al club, and a mothers home making club. No doubt, all of these backed by the industrial atmosphere of Dlaz, will make good.
 The question that should concern us now. most of all, is how to make early and efficient bread winners. We see all about us men who are learned in the lore and history of Ancient Greece and Rome and famll- far with the characters of mythology, while lamentably ignorant of Amerl- can history, unfamiliar with Ameri- can statesmen and more ignorant still of the agricultural possibilities about them.
 If I could, I would teach more of the beautiful lessons of the flag, less, perhaps of Ancient lore, certainly more thorough knowledge of Amer ican history and agriculture. J. w. Leggett.

KEEP THE DAIRY COW CLEAN

Clean milk is impossible if the cows
are not kept clean. Dirty udders and
thighs cause direct contamination of
the milk, for clinging dirt particles are
rubbed Off into the milk by the mixer.
The tail in switching will brush off
particles from the thighs and flanks
into the pail. The udder should be
brushed clean with brush of clean
cloth previous to milking. 1t is advisa
BILE to wash off the flanks and thighs
occasionally with soap and water and
it is recommended to wash the udder
off every time previous to milking and
dry thoroughly with clean cloth Some
dairymen keep the hindquarters clipped,
which is a good practice, for then these
