That discharged soldiers may resume
their college and school work and that
others may continue the education that
the army schools have started for them
DR.. John Y. Atchison. director Of the
national committee of northern Baptist
laymen, has issued a call TO the de-
nomination Nto complete the $4,000, 900
victory campaign fund. John d. Rookie
Teller has offered $4,000, 900 provided the
$e.000.000 Is raised by the national COM
mittee. DR.. Aitchison says that only
$500, 900 is needed to complete the main
fund.
Incidental to this appeal comes the
word Of the Rev. Charles A. McAlplne Of
the national committee that Baptist
congregations need not fear that their
underpaid pastors will fall in with the
spirit Of the times and strike. 1t was
DR.. McAlpine who announced recently
that he would not blame clergymen for
forming a union and demanding higher
wages. He contends that every clergy
man receiving less than $4,000 a year
should be increased 30 per cent immedi-
ately. However. he says, the clergymen
win not quit.

islatures cited as reason for the reform
There was no enthusiasm. That was
not merely because tho public does not
see quickly through the mathematical
evidence of the advocates Of this theory
but because the people are not ready or
willing to adopt indirect for direct rep
resentation. They also prefer the re-
sponsible party system to what loofs
like a parliamentary mixup after the
French and Germany way. Canadians,
like Americans, much prefer to be de-
cided in politics as they are in other
affairs.
The principle OF a minimum wage was
favoraDly reported and the recon-
mendation made that the Federal Gov
eminent hold a conference with the
provinces to make the law uniform.
The same fate befell the subject of labor
laws, which 1t was urged should be
unified and coordinated. At present
there is a wide divergence between the
Federal and provincial laws Of labor,
especially on compensation for injuries

DISEASE IMPORTED IN
NORTHERN SEED CORN

At the Cotton Conference in Mem
phis recently, number OF statements
were made that brought out the puz-
fling fact that many farmers Of Mis-
sissippi, particularly the Delta, per-
sist in buying seed corn from states
north of US. Considerable publicity
has been given to the fact that buy
ing foreign seed is practice that
promises all manner of disease trou-
bles, now and in the future, aside from
the reduced yield that may always be
expected when northern seed are
planted.
/ have before me bulletin 224 pre-
pared from DATA worked out by the
Indiana Experiment Station, at Pur-
due University, going into detailed
discussion of a corn-stalk disease
transmitted through seed. The bull
letin makes the following:
Indiana corn yields are greatly re-
duced by hitherto little understood
disease reproducing organism. The
planting of seed infested with these
organisms is, in a great measure, re-
sponsible for missing hills, slow-grow-
ing stalks, barren talk, downstairs,
nnbbins, early blighting of plants IN
the field, with the large reduction IN
Weld which these conditions bring
about"
How widely this disease is distribut-
ed over the north, l do not know, but
importing seed from other states,
especially the old corn states, is a
mighty sure way to import trouble
that may mean the loss of millions OF
dollars in the future. Our Missls-
sippi Experiment Stations have de-
termined the fact that these northern
grown varieties, that are imported Tor
earliness, produce about one-third less
than our good native varieties. The
earliness does not compensate for the
difference in yield, and it will be far
better to plant pure seed of our
native varieties and buy the com that
the early varieties would be supposed
to furnish. The difference IN yield
| in favor of our native kinds will more
than pay back any money saved by
the "earliness" yield of northern
grown sorts.
Your neighbor would have a serious
grievance if you should import hog
cholera in the community where ne Is
a hog grower. SO it is with the I'M
portation of any other disease. Every
farmer in Mississippi owes it to his
neighbors, and to the future corn IN
dustry Of che state to see to it that ne
does not jeopardize this great ano
necessary industry by some careless
fact.

the mound, and had the Majors COM
pletely mystified. He let them down
with one Inland they were mighty
lucky to do that we'll. Millsaps hard
ly got to see the ball, much less corr
meet with it. Ole Miss, on the other
hand, had little trouble getting ten
hits off Howorth, and scored seven
runs.
Rodney Sisk had the old ash work
ing like magician's wand, three hits
out of five times up was his quota
and two of those three were double.
He also played his usual good game on
first. "Runt" Wilson and Freshman
Barbour ranked second il the hitting,
each securing two bingles. "Runt'
also played good ball on second, ac-
cepting seven chances without an err
ror. z Freshman Woods, at short
fielded perfectly, and slapped out a
clean double in the seventh. Harry
Farmer also got a timely bingle.
"Red" Ray made his debut behind the
