Tippah County Farmers
Are Selling Corn at $I.25

Blue Mountain, Miss, Nov. 1S.-
Local farmers are beginning to mar
ket their surplus corn at $1.25, some
Of it being stored here to be shipped
to the Mississippi delta.
Farm Agent w. T. Pollard is urg-
ing the growers not to sell their sur
plus, but to retain it either to be
turned into meat for the market or
to be held for better prices in the
future.
Captain Paul ]. Rainey, the cham
pion lion hunter of the world, who
has been passing some time at his
Tippah Lodge, four miles south Of
Blue Mountain, has gone to Senate
bia, Miss, to participate in the great
annual bear hunt, which will be
shared by some of the leading sports
men and flnanciers of the nation.
The girl students of Ashland Con-
sclidated School, situated several
miles west of this place, and under
the superintendency of Miss Maude
McKinstry of Blue Mountain, have
just completed the task of picking
out large field of cotton near the
school grounds, receiving 50 per hun
dred for the work and donating the
receipts of their labor to be used in
the purchase of musical instruments
ior the school.

WANTS SUGAR BOARD
ANOTHER YEAR
Says Without it Cuban Price
Will Be Is to 20 Cents
Per Pound.

Washington. - Unless Congress
continues the Sugar Equalization
Board during 1920, the price of Gu
ban sugar to American consumers
will increase to Is or 20 cents a
pound, Attorney General Palmer said
in a letter to Senator McNary, of
Oregon, which the senator made pub
lie today. Mr.. Palmer expressed the
hope that the bill offered by Sena-
tor McNary to continue the board
in existence would be enacted.
Regarding the agreement between
the attorney general and producers
for prices of II and Is cents for
Louisiana sugar, Mr.. Palmer wrote:-
1T was considered by this depart
ment advisable to establish a maxi
mum price. Understand this is not
a fixed price, and competition has
the same field as before. The same
factors that would reduce the price.
by the importation of Cuban sugars
in competition with beet and Louis
lana sugars, still exist, but these
maximum prices as now established
and agreed upon could be taken as
prima facie evidence in cases where
price in excess of these prices is
charged"
Replying to an inquiry by Senator
MeNary as to what steps were being
taken by the Sugar Board to control
prices, President Zabriskie said deal
ors were requested to confine them
selves to fair and reasonable pro-
fits" and that the Department of
Justice was prosecuting those exact
ing "inordinate profits"
