ANNOUNCEMENT

10 those who have lately asked us when we would make
Summer prices on coal, if it would be any cheaper, if we could
supply any KIND OF coal wanted, if we would advise them to buy
early, we are now pleased to answer:
we are ready now to name prices for April May delivery
from the car.
No kind of coal will be as low in price as twelve months
ago. Some grades will be cheaper than thirty days ago, some
much higher. There will hardly be at any time this season
what is usually understood by the term summer prices" mean
ing prices very considerably under those prevailing during the
Winter months. Some of the cheaper grades have declined
only a few cents per ton at the mines. The better grades adj
vanced sharply when the Government released coal, permitting
We will be able to supply any of the Goals formerly hand
led by us with possibly one exception, but the supply of Ala
bama high grade coal is limited, that field being rapidly eX-
hausted and the mines worked out"
Since it is always wise to lay in an early supply of any COM
modify essential to health and happiness, no reasonable pros
pect of lower prices, a strong probability of serious labor trou-
bles in the coal fields in the early Spring, a shortage of labor in
our own midst, a growing scarcity of available fire wood, we un-
hesitatingly say BUY EARLY.
We offer for April-May delivery, PIPER RED ASH, EN-
PRE-, BRILLIANT, BIG MUDDY, GALLOWAY, ZElGLER and
KENTUCKY Goals, at the lowest prices possible to be consist
ent with the standard of service we endeavor to render.
On lots of three tons or more, to be delivered from the car,
we offer special prices and will be glad to extend to our many
friends and customers our usual open account terms on round
lots for Summer storage.
Nj Stokes Kimbrough, lately returned from the army, will
be in our office, giving attention to orders, deliveries and ac-
counts, and in position to name our prices and terms.

iikNE OFFERED
THE PROOF.
C,-erada Feed Milling Co. Introduce.
Unimpeachable Witnesses.

Fortunately, or perhaps it should
be said unfortunately, this is a day of
"show me-" People are more and
more getting to be from Missouri"
With this premise, it is worthy of
note that the Grenada Feed Milling
Co. is ready to "show" those who
need to be shown. The Sentinel has
in mind the statement published in
these columns last week over the sig
nature of EX-Sheriff Bob West as to
the value of using Cotton Belt Hog
Feed as compared with Corn for fat
tening purposes. The test was Il
days on the same weight and kind Of
hog. The gain of the corn fed hog
was Is pounds while that of the
Cotton Belt Hog Feed was As pounds,
or 800 per cent more. The cost OF
the Cotton Belt Hog Feed was 10
cents per pound while that of the
corn was Is 2-3.
In The Sentinel of this week, SINH
lar statements are made by II. L..
Perry and A. H. Henderson, w col
ored citizens of the county.
These facts are worthy of serious
consideration. In the first place 1T is
a business proposition presented to
the farmer and stock-raiser and then
there is the sentimental part. The
Grenada Feed Milling Co., is a home
enterprise, an enterprise operated by
gentlemen of established business ca
pacity and of known integrity. 1t
was begun here because these men
thought there was a place for 1t n
It's success shows that they were cor
rect in their conclusions. This con-
Germ is selling its products not only
in Grenada and Grenada county but
ri, over this section of the state and
The Sentinel feels that it is doing
its farmer and stock raising TRENDS
a kindness by commencing 1t to their
consideration.

DOTS FROM SWEET

We we're glad to have with US, MY
O. F. Turner, the Grenada county
farm demonstration, on March "a.
Mr.. Turner was accompanied by
Prof. a. H. Henderson, the demon
strstor for the colored people.
Mr.. Turner was given a most ear
nest welcome. He had a good audi
ence and he gave us & message worth
while. We liked him. He talked to
us as n interested in the welfare OF
the whole country and as one partic-
ularly anxious to serve Grenada coun-
ty. He knows the character OF our
race. he knows our weaknesses and
our good traits. That is n hal.
thing about a Southern white man,
he may tell about what we cannot DO
and our frailties, yet he Will ever
give us credit for faithfulness to the
white and for our willingness to fol
low good, white leaders. Our peo-
Die want to do, but some of the white
folks don't seem to know how little
we know, many of US, how to chose
the right and how to follow it up
even after we are shown. Mr.. Tur-
ner gave us good advice as citizens
and he talked hog raising and farm
ing to us in a way that will do US
good. He is doing a great work and
we want the white people to know
we appreciate Mr.. Turner, and we
want them to know how we appreci-

shows what the colored mar can do
in Grenada county if he will 60 at
the Job and stick to it. He has work
ed and we have never yet heard a
white man say anything doubtful
about him. All the negroes respect
and esteem him. We've got conf
dence in him. Mr.. Turner talked to
us mainly about the September Pig
Club and getting our people<to take
part in it. We are going to do it.
1t is a good thing. The plan will
