ONE-EIGHTH ACRE YIELDS

1915 BUSHELS PRODUCE.

Yazoo City, Miss. Oct. a.
What one negro did with one
eighth acre of land in Madison
County, is being told in the neigh
boring town Of Canton. The ne.
gro is Milton P. Powell. letter
carrier in that city, and the
eighth Of an acre he cultivated
was but the yard to one Of the
houses he owns in that city.
The eigth-acre yielded 80 gal
Ions of molasses, IL ibushel of
Irish potatoes, six bushels Of corn.
two bushels Of butter beans. and
he has now growing about $50
worth Of winter turnips and So
worth Of lettuce. with a second
growth of cane which bids fair to
make more molasses unless frost
catches it, in which event this new
cane will be utilized for hog feed.
In the same ratio one acre of land
would produce $40 gallons of mo-
lasses, 4 bushels of Irish potatoes,
4 bushels Of sweet potatoes, IS
bushels Of corn and 8 bushels Of
butter beans. In the cultivation
of the eighth-acre Powell had
only the aid Of . man to do his
blowing in the making Of the seed
bed. The remainder Of the work
ne did in the time he was not at

May Festival Work
Is Progressing

Anyway, mother, l get to play
in the May Festival" said a certain
Junior of Starr School, the other
evening.
And many Juniors can say the
same thing right now, for the cho-
ruses and the orchestras and the
violin class will include a great
number of boys and girls all over
the city.
The May Festival will be a series
of four concerts which will be Civ
en- on the following dates: May 9,
May II, May IA, and May 16, and
something different will happen
each evening.
The very first evening, May 8,
will be Garfield evening, and will
include some of the Grade school
students who are in the violin clas-
ses taught by Professor Hicks.
On that evening, the Garfield Or
chestra, the girls chorus of Gar
field, and class of students Sc
lected by Professor Hicks from his
three Grade School classes will
give the program.
The violin classes were begun
only short time before Christmas
but are progressing very nicely.
81 am enthusiastic about the work, 4"
said Professor Hicks.
On May II, the vocational stu
dents and the already well known
and popular sextette will give the
program for the evening. The vo-
cational students are the girls and
boys who expect to be teachers or
players in the future.
On the evening of May IA, the
Apollo chorus, selected chorus,
with some of the vocational stu
dents will have charge of the pro,
gram.
The last concert which will be
given on the 10th of May will be
given by the High School orchestra
The soloists will be announced
later.
Professor Sloane, Miss Edna
Marlatt and the students who are
in the Festival are interested and
are working verw hard for it. And
we, who are to be listeners are
eager to hear it, because we know
we shall hear some beautiful music
aren't we?

Haze You Started
Your Garden?

If not, you'd better begin to get
busy. Why? Because everyone
else, at least, great many other
Juniors are starting to plant theirs,
and one is already watching her
onion plants grow.
Cabbages and tomatoes, real
young yet, are thriving in the box
es in the school rooms of the grade
schools. The government seeds
have arrived, too and were given
out to the pupils to plant in their
own gardens. These included beets,
lettuce, onions, carrots and peas.
At Whitewater the boys and girls
of the 9Th grade have planted a
garden in their school yard. The
boys spaded and the girls raked
and both planted, and now they
are watching and waiting to see
what happens.
A new man from Purdue Univer-
sity has arrived to oversee the gar
dening in the schools. His name is
F. w. Wesler, and he is graduate
of the 1918 class of Purdue.
Oh, soon gardens will be com
ing up everywhere and every Ju
nior and Senior too, will be talking
gardens all the time!

The Two Horses

Two horses were carrying two
loads. The front horse went well,
but the rear horse was lazy. The
men began to pile the rear horses
load on the front horse. When they
had transferred it all, the rear
horse found it easy going and he
said to the front horse, "Toil is
sweet, the more you try, the more
you suffer"
When they reached the tavern,
the owner said, "Why should fod-
der two horses when / carry all on
one. I'd better give it all the food
it wants and cut the other one out.
And so he did.

Our Pet Coon

My brother once bought a pet
coon. He brought it home and it
soon became a pet. 1t learned to
do many tricks. 1t was very mis-
chievous. 1t would get all the toys
and other things it could find and
hide them in the garnet.
II would put its paw in our peck
cts and get candy or peanuts and
eat them. We had lots of fun
watching it wrestle and play with
the dog. Once it tore up a pillow
filled with feathers and scattered
them all over the room. 1t finally
got so bad that my brother had to
sell it.
After he sold it, it killed hen
who was mother to several small
chickens. For this the coon was
killed.
This ends my story.

THE EMPTY SLEEVE.

The other day on the street four
soldier boys, back from "over
there" were walking along. They
met some beautiful girls and smiled
and bowed to the soldiers. After
they had passed the girls, one Of
the boys said to the others, Come
on boys lets go talk to them" and
then another said, "Ah, gee boys, l
can't go, they won't look at me-
look at this empty sleeve" Do you
think that the girls would laugh at
his empty sleeve. No, l am sure
they would not. Would you?

A Miser

Once there was an old man who
lived all by himself. He had a
great bag full of shining gold. He
was afraid he would have to give
up some of it. So he lived far back
in the woods. One night a robber
came while the old man was
asleep, and stole all the gold.
There was a hole in the bag in
which the money had been kept.
and as the robber ran away, the
money fell out through the hole.

the outer office were pointing to ten the door opened and Marshall entered. His clothes, of indefinite blackish hue, would have disgraced an eastern man His string tie had a starboard list, and his hat was ready for rummage sale. But few would have looked at his clothes. The latent energy of the dynamic spirit that would frequently turn that quiet office into mael strom gleamed in those Indian-blacB eyes. Beneath the shabby cloth one suspected the daily polished skin; un der the old slouch hat was the mouth of purpose, the lips that no woman even his Claudia, had kissed without the thrill of fear.
 Marshall glanced back at the clock and then toward his visitor.
