INTEREST VICTORY LOAN
SOON TO BE FIXED,

Washington, April THE per cent
interest rate borne by the War Finance
Corporations new one-year bonds, ap.
proved by the treasury, it is not to be
taken as ann index of the rate on Vic
tory Liberty Loan notes.
The treasury believes that securities
which are not direct obligations of the
governmentmust bear from a half to
three-quarters of per cent higher in
terest than government notes or bonds.
Rates Of 1-2 or even IA, as car
ried by the past two issues of bonds,
have been discussed by the treasury Of
ficials much more than the higher
rates. Secretary Glass is known to be-
lieve that per cent is entirely too high
for government notes partially tax
exempt.
The rates and other terms of the loan
will be determined within the next
week or ten days and announced only
a few days before April 21, when the
selling campaign opens.

MISSISSIPPI TEACHERS TO MEET
IN MERIDIAN ON MAY I, 2, 3rd.

The Mississippi Teachers Associa.
tion is the only organization for the
teachers of the State ard it should be
the ambition of every teacher to make
the annual convention the greatest

great deal of time and energy in arrang

held in Meridian, May /, 2 and 3rd
Speakers of national reputation as
school men have been secured and the
city of Meridian has made provision
for caring for the greatest number of
teachers that has ever attended an AS
sociation. The teachers of Mississippi
owe it to themselves and to the pro-
fession to attend this convention and
l am sure they will not neglect or re-

DIPPING LAW Is VALID.

The decision of the Supreme Court on
Monday sustaining the constitutionality
of the statewide tick eradication law
is of great importance, especially to
the live stock industry of the common
wealth.
Since the enactment of this statue
there has been a stubborn opposition
shown to its enforcement, especially
in some of the southern counties, and
it was only by waging relentless
fight, and incurring many enemies,
that the Live Stock Sanitary Board
succeeded in having Mississippi de-
clared tick free territory.
The fight did not end. however, with
having the state declared tick free. It
is necessary to keep it that way if the
live stock industry is to be developed,
and now that the tribunal of last re-
sort has held that the statue is valid,
it is to be hoped that all opposition
to its provisions will speedily vanish.
An important phase of the decision
Is the ruling of the court that the
provisions Of this law are
in no way abrogated or set aside by
the open range law of 1918. This
new statue, in fact, formed the chief
basis of attack on the compulsory dip
ping law, and the Supreme Court de-
,ree holds that there is no conflict in
he provisions of the two measures
Opponents of the dipping law should
Ilso become acquainted with the fact
hat the decision upholds the authority

is employees, to criminally prosecute

In this issue Hon. D. M. Graham of
Gulfport announces his name as can

election which will be held on May
27th to fill the unexpired term of the
late Judge Neville.
Judge Graham is native Missis-

Is superfluous. He has sat on the
bench at various times in this county,
during the illness of Judge Neville,

occasions as to win the esteem and

the public generally. He was a can
didate in 1914 for the Office to which
he now aspires, and made such close
in the second primary. and in the
second race he made hard and earn
est fight, but lost out by small vote,
taking his defeat with good grace.
During that race he made the acquaint-
nance of many voters throughout the
district, and the clean fight he made
won him the admiration of even those
who did not vote for him.
Mr.. Graham is in the prime of life.
man of unimpeachable private and
public character; splendid citizen, a
good neighbor and a man of courage,
firmness and self confidence, character
istics that would enable him to make
an ideal and fearless judge. He is a
lawyer of experience and ability, and
promises if elected to throw the whole
weight of his experience, energy and
personality into the duties of the high
office which he hopes to fill with the
of the people at the polls.

NATURAL SIGNS TELL
TIME FOR FARMING

You have heard them say-the ole
farmers in the neighborhood in which
you were brought up--that when the
little, late, stunted cOcklebur weeds an
inch or two high began to mature their
burs, 1t was time to get the late crops
under cover because frost would be
along in few nights. The catkins on
maple trees had something to do with
early gardening. The women used to
watch for blackberry blossoms-had
something to do with planting beans,
didn't it? And either the opening of
the elder flowers or the ripening of the
elderberries fixed the time for some
summer operation-maybe it was SOW
ing turnip seed, or it may have been
harvesting the early onions. And there
was great deal more of the same kind
Nearly every field and garden opera
tion depended on some tree or flower
a mass of misinformation, interesting
as forelord and all that, but utterly
g.
That is what you thought perhaps.
1t is what a great many thousands of
people have hought. Allthese super
stitions"did not fit in with the little
bit of cocksure science that every boy
and girl learned in school, 1t was
merely something for welj meaning
old fogies to putter around with and
for well-informed people to smile at.
Comes, now, the United States De-
partment of Agriculture and says that
such lore is not superstition and never
was, that it is not useless and never
was, but that, on the other hand, it is
and has always been one of the most
accurate aids possible to the right sort
of agriculture. Here is the opinion, |
in the language of one of the Depart |
ment's scientists:
Property recorded and correctly in
terpreted there is nothing perhaps to
equal the records of the dates of peri
odical events in plants as indices to
the bioclimatic character of a place or
local area, because such events are in
direct response, not to one or a few,
but to all the complex elements and
facors of the environment which no
artificial instrument or set of instru-
ments yet available will record"
Wha this means, in plain language,
is that there is best ime for every
farm and garden operation, and that
some tree or shrub cr plant indicates
hat best time more accurately than
all the scientific instruments can pos
,ibly register it.
The only restriction is that this ma
ure lore with relation to crops be prop
srly recorded interpretated." The
that you smiled at
we're all the while the basis of very
lseful and very exact science-only
obody had ever systematized it.

TUBERCULOSIS IN MISSISSIPPI.

During the year 1918, there were re-
ported by the physicians of Mississippi
$500 new cases of tuberculosis. About
600 men were sent back from the army
and Navy, because of tuberculosis. And
based upon the finding of other states
there were approximately $500 men re-
jected by the local draft boards on ac-
count of this disease.
During this same period there were
between 1000 and 5000 deaths in the
State.
The above represents tremendous
economic and financial loss to say
nothing of the sorrow and distress;
and yet, it is wholly preventable.
For further information as to the pre-
vention and care of this most dreaded
disease, write The Extension Depart
ment of the State tuberculosis Sana
