In the Sentinel of week before last, we discussed at some
length the recent adoption of school text books by the State
Text Book Commission and showed the very unreasonable
prices that the Commission imposed upon the parents of the
children who have to have books.
We think a study of the adoption will show a greater num-
Der of supplementary books than ever before Why was this
done? Of course the book companies wanted it done for the
reason that they knew a better price could be obtained last
summer than could be obtained next summer and for the next
four years, and that the adoption would mean the use of a
greater number of new books.
Notwithstanding the high prices named in the contract, by
accident, cleverness, adriotness, s%killfulness or otherwise, a
clause, we are advised, was allowed to be inserted in the con-
tract which did not penalize the companies for failure to get
the books to the children in time for the opening of school and
as one Of the results of this liberality shown the book compan-
les, many OF the books were not in the hands of the schools I'M
til several weeks after the opening and some of them are not
yet in hand.
1t hardly looks fair, it is not in keeping with democratic
ideas to force parents TO send to school while at the same time
forcing them to buy certain books at stipulated prices and al
owing them practically nothing for books heretofore used in
exchange.
Truly does it seem that the book companies are TO be turn
ed into green pastures in Mississippi for The next five years.
This increase in prices over contract in force previous to
last summers adoption will cost the people of the State several
million dollars annually.

humanity is too careless about repeating rumors. "They
say has helped drag down the character of many good women
and has put black spots on the lives of good men. There ought
TO DE a way found to deal serevely with those who circulate
unfounded rumors which are calculated to damage character
and business.
In this hour when almost every business is stretched like a
wet shoe string, those who start reports about firms, banks and
farmers being thrown into bankruptcy or into the hands of a
receiver, should not only be punishedfor a crime, but where
they have property that is reachable, should be assessed with
heavy damages. Never before was there a time when the
business integrity OF men and of firms should be handled by the
tongues OF the public with such great care. 1t is easy enough
to hear but difficult indeed to substantiate, still wagging
tongues nave thrown thousands of banks and other concerns
into financial junk heaps
Within the last ten days, it has been repeated on the
streets OF Grenada-and on doubt what is true of Grenada can
be said OF other towns-that certain prominent business con-
Germs IN other parts or north Mississippi were in the hands of
receivers. 1t turns out that all such reports were groundless.
In truth almost everybody who can, owes heavily yet a vast
majority are solvent. Confidence is one of the bed rocks
OF business; to undermine this rock now is a crime against the
public. Let there be little talking, more thinking and increased
use OF common sense, and the end will be we'll. But stop re-
peating hurtful business rumors.

REST ON FARM DEMONSTRATORS.

State Agent and Assistant Director of Extension" j. W
Willis has made an interesting discovery which is thus com
municated to the public:
IN regard to county agent work, manifesting itself in a fight
TO do away with the work, entirely or reduce the agents salar
les, which, in many cases would mean the same, as they are to-
DAY making ends meet on their present incomes. The salaries
OF mississippi county agents cover both salary and expenses
and after deductlng the expenses of furnishing a car and keep.
ing it up, to say nothing of their travelling expenses, there is
very little left.
Our men have no other source 0. income, since they do not
nave tme Tor side lines, nor would they be allowed to engage
IN any other business if they had time, thus forcing them to de-
pend entirely on the salaries, from the standpoint of the county
since the extension work is the only agency through which the
United States Department of Agriculture or the agricultural
college has OF working directly with the people. There is not
a county In Mississippi but that could well afford to employ
Two weH-equpped county agents to look after it's agricultural
development, since agriculture is the biggest thing in any coun-
ty in Mississippi.
AS a general policy The Herald believes in the merits of
farm extension work under competent experts. At the same
time IN this period OF excessive low prices of farm products.
cheese pairing OF the costs becomes a first duty of the farmer
1t may be even required to reduce the cost of farm extension
work within the living amount of the agents. This cannot be
called false economy. Farmers who are wise will ouaifv and
adapt themselves and do the work of the agents.
tits even probable that during the high price period agents
have become wasteful or extravaganza. In such case they must
expect to be checked up and their expenses toned down.
The above from the Vicksburg Herald of Nov. 20. will an
Ply WITH equal force in Grenada county and indeed throughout
the State just now. By this we would not be understood "A

mating the splendid work that these men have done in Missis-
slppl. But the fact that there has been good work done. ia a
mighty good reason for holding up in these time of high taxes
land no money.
1t would seem that the farmers ought to have learned
enough In these years from the farm demonstrators to carry
them through at least one year. If the farmers have not learn
ed a great deal In these years, then we can hardly see how it
can be reasoned that to forego the use of a, demonstrator for
one year would hurt the farmers interests. Regardless of how
valuable a thing may be or how badly it is needed, there is
hardly any one who will be foolish enough to hold that we must
try to get all we wish, regardless of the cost.

A casual review of the school books in the lower grades
especially, leads this writer to the conclusion that the State
School Book Commission either did not know what it was do
ing or else has very poor judgment when it comes to select
ing books. Certainly the new books that the parents were
forced to buy at greatly increased costs, which was a burden
to many, are not nearly so good as the ones that they replaced.
We believe in progress but at the same time we believe also
that progress should mean a betterment instead of a burden of
expense with no imprOvement-WOOd Republican.

Where. Oh where are those who assured the people of
Mississippi a little more than a year ago, that the State Tax
Commission would make "equalize' assessments, make the big
property owner pay more, and thereby make it easier on the
small tax payer? Assessments were never before SO high
throughout the State and the tax rate is the highest In the his

Commission was to day?
