The farm owned by President Har-
ker is the old Williams place in the
southwest part OF Neshoba county.
Last Thursday morning President
Harker delivered an address atchap.
ell exercises in the High School Audi
torium. The subject of his address
was, go Another Year" His advice
to all the pupils was to go another
year, and from his experiences he H.
lustrated the advantages that would
come from better preparation thru a
longer school attendance. The ad-
dress was inspirational and though
the pupils profited from his remarks
it was unfortunate that all Philadel-
phia conld not have turned out to
hear this noted speaker. y
President Harker is an English
man by birth. At the~ age OF eight
cen he toiled away in the coal mines.
Moving with his parents to Illinois
he followed the same work. The
mines were not operating all the
time so he utilized his spare time in
reading and study. When the OPP
portunity come he began teaching in
u country school. AS he taught he
studied until he now holds degrees
from several colleges. For half a
century he has been eminent in edu-
cational work in Illinois. For many
years he has been President OF the
Illinois College For Womeh. q Meth
odjst schaa, which rsssNks aleng
with Vassaf and Wellesley With an
enrollment of 400 the instit9 tion has
grown under his lnsanageEntnt from
a $4,000 plant to q $lsOQo,oop es-
tablshment.
DR.. Harker takes a keen interest In
the affairs OF Jacksonville, his home
town, having acted at one time as
President OF the Board OF Trade and
serving on many Committees whose
duty it is to work for the upbuild-
ing of the city.
With father and mother who
could not write he has taken an en-
viable position among our foremost
educators.

Twenty Gallons of Beer

Sheriff M. G. Posey and u. S. DepH.

into Beat 4 last Thursday and made
a rich find. Twenty gallons OF beer
was found and a complete still with
wash pot, worm and all the fixings.
The still was carefully concealed on

reed break A winding path was
the only approach and the still was
two miles from any habitatiou,
Saplings in the vicinity were well
smoked giving every Indication that
operations here were notnew.
This carefully concealed still was
found Is miles from Philadelphia

The beer was poured out, the pot

fortune would have it there were
three gallons of moonshine in the
car and some of it was utilized. The

The only noticeable effects were that
the car made little more noise than

SOUTHERN RURAL|ST
PRAISES BOTTOMS
The following article is taken from
the current number OF the Southern
Ruralist.
a Live County Agent

BY the above heading do not
mean that you should infer that q
live county agent is rare bird. and
perhaps | should have headed this
article .'An All-round County Agent"
for that is what O.. G. Bottoms, Of
Neshoba county, Mississippi, is-but
| it takes live man to be an all
around agent. 1t also requires that
he should be tactful as well as honest.
When Mr.. Bottoms first came to
Neshoba county agent was new
thing, to be regarded with suspicion
rather than confidence: He was for
tunate, however, in winning the con :
fidence OF the farmers at once. There
was good corn crop, but the price
i'm the local market was only 80 cents
per bushel. A telegram was received
by Mr.. Bottoms from Mr.. G A Cobb
[then Assistant Director Of Exten-
sion Work. directing him to advise
farmers to hold their corn for $1.50,
which price they soon realized, and
this gave him their confidence.
His cooperative sales during the
year 1919 amounted to 100000, ef-
fecting a gain of $4,000.
He has enlisted 131 boys In the pig
club, and 316 in the corn club. Last
year the average yield OF corn was
31A bushels per acre at q cost OF 8
cents per bushel. One of the boys
whom he had trained for Judging
corn entered the contest at the State
Fair and won second prize. Next
year he won first prize incorn con.
rest, raising 121 bushels, and sold 80
bushels OF seed corn Tor $3.50 per blu.
Third year won FIRST prize on corn
aud sold 75 bushels Tor seed at 1915
lpersbusheI. fnthe first year he also
won a gilt as first prize In pig club
work. Third year won FIRST prize
with SOW and litter and shipped
eight pigs for which he received 1902,
and purchased a registered merit
Jersey bull for the community. Last
summer he attended the club rally
at the A. & M. College. where he at
tracted the attention of Mr.. Cobb,
who got him position, and he
worked his way through the short
course. He is now 10 years old and
therefore, no longer eligible for club
work. His father can neither read
nor write.
Through Mr.. Bottoms efforts
creamery was opened in February
with so patrons having an average
of five cows each. Within the past
few months 40 cows and three bulls,
registered Jerseys, have been ship
ped In. One heifer. aged 2 years and
70 days, ina merit test average AZ
pounds of butter fat, for eight
months. At present q campaign Is
being waged for permanent pasture.
By his effective work Mr.. Bottoms
has so won the confidence OF the
community that he is consulted on
all subjects and his advice followed.
