Donohuc Ready
To Back Roosevelt

These proposed measures, which
will be offered by Colonel Roosevelt,
aim at preventing aliens or minors
from having a voice in party CON
troll and from permitting candidates
for public office from signing their
designations in advance as pre-
requisite to receiving the party's
support.
Assemblyman Charles D. Dono-
hue, leader of the Democratic
minority in the lower house, an
nounced to-day that he stood ready
to rally to Roosevelt's standard.
This is not a question of politics,
but Of observance of the laws Of tho
land, which have been violated in un-
seating the Socialists" said Mr.
Donohue. "The Democratic minority
Of thirty five, almost to man. will
support Colonel Roosevelt in any move
he may make to reseat the Socialists.
If he is ready Monday night we will
back him then. If he believes it is op-
perfume to wait day or two longer
We, too, shall wait"
Mr.. Donohuc led the previous fight
to reseat the Socialists. He could
muster but thirty-three votes. This
was before the trial The majority.
including number of Donohue's
party, were held in check by Speaker
Sweets promise that proof Of the per
sonal guilt Of the five Socialists would
be adduced

CARELESS POISONING COSTLY
Frequent Reports Made Of Animals
Gaining Access to Paint Boxes
and Other Containers.

The danger Of animals becoming
poisoned through the careless s Of
poison material when spraying or bait
ing for insects, Is pointed out by Off
cials at the Ohio Experimental sta
ton, Wooster.
Every year reports are sent In Of
animals suddenly dying from securing
access to paint boxes and poison con-
tainers.
Sometimes paris green boxes, white
lead or arsenate Of lead containers are
thrown into the trash pile or dump and
animals get the poison from these.
Paint boxes, eve though thinly
coated. are licked by cattle because of
the sweetish taste Of the lead com
pounds.
Such boxes should be thoroughly
cleaned with gasoline before using for
farm pals, 1t Is stated.
Materials most dangerous to live
stock are paris green, london purple,
arsenate Of lead, calcium arsenate,
and any compounds of arsenic OF
zinc.

KEEPING HOGS IN CONDITION
Mixture Of Charcoal, Salt, AIr-SIaked
Lime, Wood Ashes and copperas
Is Favored.

For hogs running out the following
preparation helps to keep them in
good condition: Take Of charcoal
three bushels of salt eight pounds; Of
air-slaRed lime two quarts; Of wood
ashes one bushel dissolve one pound
Of copperas in hot water, sprinkle
with the solution the mixture Of the
other things; mix all up thoroughly
and put the mixture In the feed boxes
and set them where the hogs will have
free access to them. Every farmer
should have self-feeding boxes or
racks, so that the stock can only get
the needed supply and not waste II
nor get too heavy a supply at one time.

EC0NOMIzE IN FEEDING HOGS
Where Abundance Of Grain ls Fur

Much on Pasture.

Where too much grain Is fed the
hogs satisfy their appetites on grain
and will not eat as much pasture as
they should For that reason under
present conditions, when grain prices
are high and pork prices compare
lively low, 1t Is advisable to limit the
grain ration to two pounds OF less.

See That ownsr is satisfied.


People are buying. satisfaction now
as well as intrinsic value when they
shop for an automobile" says j. Sidney
Penn, Of the Heidelberg Auto Company,
.'and within the last couple of years the
element of satisfaction has steadily in
creased in importance until today ii
fully equals that Of Intrinsic value.
If everyone bought = car for resale,
or strictly as an investment the item
of value would predominate, but the
owner who buys car to use is finding
that the satisfaction he enjoys is not
always determined by the intrinsic val
ue of the car, and represents a con-
sideration that he cannot we'll AFFORD tc
overlook.
Included in owner satisfaction is
road dependability. comfort in use, e.
economy of operation and the character
of the cars daily performance. AL
these hinge directly upon the dealer. The
attention which he gives the owner af.
ter the sale determines the measure OF
satisfaction which the owner enjoys.
Tho day when man merely bought
car and was satisfied if he got one
with the nameplate he was looking for
has passed. Nowadays, the responsi,
bility of the man who sold it to hin
figures largely in the transaction anc
modern purchasers of automotive lines
examine the dealer as carefully as they
do the product"

The Brookhaven baseball team COM
posed Of boys from the age of IA to 1e
played a very interesting game on the
McComb diamond August 10. Several
star plays being made on both sides.
Special mention must be made Of FL
wood Nixon who knocked a home run
scoring runner ahead of him. The
McComb pitcher had some wicked
curves and shoots but our boys were
too much for him. After getting used
to the ground and the crowd they bat
ted him all over the lot. Hermon Smith
our firstbaseman deserves much credit
for the way he held the bag. He also
led the attack on the opposing pitcher
making six runs out Of six times at
the bat.
Last but not least except in stature
Robert Brown our pitcher deserves ere.
dit the way he played in the pot. He
plays up and down and no hits
His best playing being done when
men set up and he fans them as fast
as they come to bat.

We expect to play McComh on oul

C. M. Morgan Against
Interstate Rate Increase

Mr.. c. M. Red" Morgan. Railroad
Commissioner of the Southern District,
made Brookhaven one of his brief calls
on last Wednesday and while here sta
ted to Leader representative that he
expected a large crowd of shippers from
his district to be present at the hearing
Of the Railroad Commission on the in
tra-state raise in Jackson on August rs.
The hearing will be conducted in the
Senate Chamber at the Capitol
Il want every shipper in my district
to be there or have a representative
present" said Mr.. Morgan. "The dairy
business will be hard hit of the new
rate increase goes through. / have
twelve or more creameries, two of which
are located in Brookhaven, in my juris-
diction. These as well as the individual
shippers of milk. should receive encour-
agement rather than be subjected to an
unjust increase in transportation rates,
which in this case will be about rs per
cent"
Mr.. Morgan further stated that the
proposed rate increase would seriously
affect other shippers as well as consul
mers and said he was opposed to it and
intended to do everything in his power
to prevent it going into effect.
Tell the people to write me and
will do all l can to assist them" said
Mr.. Morgan. IT am working hard for
the people of Mississippi, but can al
ways do more. If the people will let
me know what they want I will try to
get 1t for them"
