FAT HORSES ARE PREFERRED
Farmer Makes Mistake In Dj,posino
Of Animals When They Ar
Somewhat Run Down.

1t Is better for the farmer who has
horses to sell not to dispose of them
when they are somewhat run down,
following hard summers work, but
Hfatten them up. A fat horse always
brings a much better price even
though he be an inferior horse.

of you to speak for these fellows, but

take warning Mr., Mayor and Council
men, this may be only a dream, but
you had better look out, for if the

will. Just look what the City of
Birmingham did short time ago and
had a large picture in one of the pap

going to the City Market to see what
the country people had brought in.
The city of Columbus can do some
thing along this line and give us
hitching lot in Columbus. If you
want to make your city grow you
must make your country around your
city grow and then nothing can keep
you from growing and you can do this
by fixing up things convenient for the
country folks. We noticed two of our

The u. c. VS. who returned from
Tupelo last Saturday, came back
with a memory of a right royal time
to add to their storehouse Of treas
ure along with the recollection of
bivouacs and camp fires, and foot
sore marches, and brilliant victories,
and the eternal fame of a matchless
defeat that have been recalled and re-
uewed with each succeeding reunion.
There were sos of the veterans in
attendance to say nothing of the Sons
of Veterans and the U. d. C., who
were there to honor the aged sur
vivors of the memorable conflict.
Tupelo distinguished itself with a
hospitality that has always been
princely in its generosity.
Among the Columbians who attend

Rural Hill

e Our farmers are about up will

at the present time.
Mr.. Austin Stinson, Of Greenwood

another Of our Rural Hill boys that is
making his way successfully out in

Miss Christine Reeves and Miss
Ethel Franks from Mt. Vernon visited
our berg one day last week.
We noticed from a report just re-
ceived that the wheat crop is one
forth off this year and we also notice
a decrease Of 81 900 acres in the oat
crop this year in Mississippi. The
hay crop shows only 76 per cent.
April was too cold and wet and May
was too dry. We noticed that Alfalfa
is somewhat reduced on account of
wet weather. Alfalfa is 70 per cent.
The following is the condition of the
crops in Mississippi up to June LIST:
Cow peas, 80 per cent; soy and velvet
beans, 80 per cent; cabbage 80 per
cent; onions, 80 per cent; apples 81
per cent. The mellon crop is about
30 days late. 1t has been dry over the
state through the month of May and
from the old saying dry May
good crop" which we hope to have.
Now is good time for us to prepare
for our second crop of Irish potatoes.
You can sprout your potatoes by put
ting them on the ground and covering
them with straw or hay, which must
be kept damp and the potatoes should
be cut and covered deep to protect
them from the hot sun. We would adj
wise our people to try and make two
or three crops of Irish potatoes al
though they are cheap now they will
be high by the first of September.

in the welcome. II was only few
moments before the invitation was ex-
tended to come out to dinner. There
was mad rush, but useless one, for
there was dinner to feed many more
than those present. You who have
eaten these country dinners can YER
lify this statement. but those who
have failed to see Editor lines and
Notetaker Marx eat have missed half
of their life at least They eat, and
it is no joke, and they seem to en-
JOY it. This stop was one of the most
enjoyable along the route.

these boosters when they hit their
town and will show them good time,
