WATER VALLEY, YALoBusHA COUNTY.
PERRY COUNTY WINS FIRST
PRIZE AT STATE FAIR.

The first prize for an agricultural
exhibit from Mississippi county at
the recent state fair was awarded to
Perry Cunty.
According to Prof. r. H. Pate, who
judged the exhibits at the county
fair, the Perry County display carried
out in truest sense the real fair idea,
in that the exhibit represented pro-
ducts grown by as many as 200 farm
ers' wives in the county.
The material in the exhibit was
first displayed in community fairs.
From these local meetings the most
attractive activities were sent on to
the county fair. Then the entire
agricultural exhibit of the county
fair was carefully checked over and
the best forwarded to the state fair.
Since this is the first time that
Perry has ventured in competition
with the other great agricultural
counties, her triumph is source of
real pride on the part of the citizens
of that progressive county.

NO WONDER COAL
MINERS BALKED
McAdoo Attacks Mine Owners
AS Getting "Indefensible"
Returns.

New York, Nov. 24.-Soft coal
mine owners made Shocking and in
defensible" profits in 1917, and there
is grave doubt" that they are en-
titled to increased prices because of
the proposed 81 per cent incresase in
miners wages, William G. McAdoo,
former secretary of the treasury, de-
elared today in telegram to Federal
Fuel Administrator Garfield. The
owners profits as shown by their in
come tax returns examined by him as
secretary of the treasury in 1918, he
said, showed earnings on capital stock
ranging from 10 to 1000 per cent.
II am convinced that the wage in
creases proposed for the mine workers
are just as reasonable" he stated.
Before deduction of excess profits
taxes-which weresless in 1917 than
now-these income tax returns show
ed that earnings of 100 to 800 per
cent on capital stock were not un-
common" Mr.. McAdoo's telegram
asserted.
Referring to the bituminous mine
owners income tax returns for 1918,
which he said he had not seen, the
telegram said:
''If they disclose any such profits
as earned by the bituminous coal op-
orators in 1917, it would be grave
wrong to permit the operators to take
from the public additional profits in
the form of increased rates for
hituminous coal"
Mr.. McAdoo urged that no increase
in prices of soft coal to consumers be
allowed and that the income tax re-
turns of the soft coal mine owners be
made public,
