ASKS If THE FIGURES ARE NOT
WRONG.

A postal card from Mr.. A. G. Leigh,
valued friend of The Sentinel and
a former Grenada citizen. brings an
inquiry from his far-away California
home about the figures recently pub
lished in these columns showing thar
hut Is bales of cotton had been ginned
in the county UP to September 20.
whereas, for the same period last year
the figures showed 6S7 bales. The
Sentinel gave the figures as shown BY
the census department.
This paper feels sure that Mr.. Leigh
will be concerned to know that the
cotton crop of this immediate section
is even shorter than contemplated.
There will hardly be more than 70
per cent Of crop. The crop is prac-
tically picked Some farmers are
holding back on ginning because OF
the very low price and others who
have ginned are refusing to sell. II
is the worst shortage of cotton that.
this section ever experienced.

WHAT SIX BUSHELS OF LkSFE
DEZA DID

Rhodes brothers. three miles west or
Grenada, can furnish an object lesson
ON farming which. if it had been more
universally learned and followed, the
farmers and indeed everybody else
would not be in the slough of financial
despond today.
These gentlemen planted eight acres
in lespedeza and used six bushels or
seed in the planting which ccst them
s3s From the crop they reaped 81
wagon loads of hay which was worth
s31O Besides the hay, they saved
rs bushels of lespedeza seed which
is worth $3.50. Thus it will be. seen
that the crop yielded returns of. $3.50.
It required practically little labor I"

as compared to cotton, hardly any ia
,or at all. There are not twenty-five
acres in cotton in Grenada county that
will yield $3.50. Then why keep or
repeating the folly of raising all cot

HARDING AND COOLIDGE
ELECTED TUESDAY
REPUBLICANS GET MAJORITIES
ALSO IN BOTH HOUSES Of .
CONGRESS.

The election held Tuesday through
out the country resulted in the cleo
tion of Harding for President and
Coolidge for Vice President. The
Democrats went down under German,
Irish and Italian votes AMI the votes
of the dissatisfied ones throu ghout the
country. Cox and Roosevelt made a
game fight but the odds and condi-
tions were too much to overcome
The returns also indicate that the
Republicans have working ma ajorities
in both the Senate and the House of
Representatives.
In Mississippi, there were more
Socialist and Republican votes than
one had a right to expect. Those
who voted against the Democrats wilt
find trouble in getting into the next
State primary election. At this writ
ing, the returns on the proposed con-
stitutional amendments are incom-
plete, however, it appears that the
first amendment on the ticket was
defeated and the others carried.
In this county the vote on the
was as follows:
1st amendment, for 1I3, against $50.
End amendment for 282, against $50
3rd amendment for 319, against 1856.
4th amendment for 32s, against 112.
5th amendment for 338, against 76.

The Federation made a fine impress
sion on Grenada not only for what the
ladies stand for but for the dignity
and the cleaness with which they dis
cussed the matters brought before
them. There was a commendabie
spirit Of conservatism, yet the conver-
ton gave unmistakable evidence OF
well digested ideas about public mat
ters When political Issues were re-
ferTed to, and the women were urged
to post themselves on public matters,
it was rather amusingly stated that
they would not have TO do a very
great deal OF informing TO learn these
matters about as well as the average
man.
The Federation expressed the very
greatest satisfaction With the enter
tainment given them by Grenada and
like everybody who visits the City
Beautiful" the visitors were indeed
complimentary OF the beauty and
sOf the town.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS DIS
CONTINUE HEALTH WORK

By a vote of to 2. the board OF
supervisors on Tuesday afternoon dis
continued for another year the health
work begun in Grenada County jan
'uary /, last. Messrs. Cunningham
and Anderson voted to continue the
work while Messrs. James, Rounsa-
vile and Mattingly voted to discen-
tinuc. The members of the board
spoke very highly of the work and
those who voted to discontinue it
stated that they did so only because
of the distressing condition Of the
County's finances. A delegation of
ladies appeared before the supervisors
and earnestly plead with the board to
continue the work. The ladies said
they were making the plea not for
those doing the work but for those
for whom the work was being done,
the unfortunate children of the Coun-
ty and the motherhood of the Coun-
ty, but the plea of the women fell
upon deaf ears so far as the three
objecting members were concerned.

ARCHBISHOP OF CASHEL SAYS
GOVERNMENT is FAILURE in !
IRELAND.

In his pastoral letter read in all
Churches in the archdiocese of Cashel,
Archbishop Harry says:
I'VE are living under a government

the nation, nor working for the good
Of the community as whole, it has
trampled on the will of the people and
upheld the ascendancy of the pamper.
ed minority. History tells us that
where such a system reigns the laws
of God are set aside. coercion and
crime go hand in hand, and peaceful
citizens are made the victims of the
vicious circle.
'The remedy. for the Irish upheaval
is obvious, since freedom is the best
solvent of political disorder. The ira
ditional loyalty of the Irish people te
the laws Of God will prevail in the
full when the days of oppression have
passed away forever, and when oul
people have in their own hands the
making of the administration and theil
