BIG TRADE DAY WILL DRAW
THOUSANDS TO ABERDE EN-
Entire City Unites in Purpose to
Make April 18th Biggest Day
In History of the City

Aberdeen is to pull off the first
Trade Day enterprise held in this
city within the space of twenty i've
years.
This forward movement among
our business people will occur on
April 18th, and will be an occasion
long to be remembered by both the
buying and the selling public. That
is. If those who have things to sell
use the opportunity advantageous
ly and let the thousands of people
who have thin gs to buy know what
bargains they have to offer, through
the columns of the local newspapers
The force and power of newspapers
is essential to make this enterprise
a success, and If given the chance
to demonstrate their potency. by
ample use of their advertising col
umns. will settle in the minds of
every live local business man and
woman the advantages of advertis-
ing at home for home trade, just
as they expect the buying public to
buy at home. 1t will demonstrate
that advertising In the local papers
is cheaper and more effective than
any other method and that every
dollar spent at home is an example
that will be followed.
The success of the first Trade Day
in Aberdeen will depend chiefly
upon the publicity given the event
before it takes place, through the
columns of the local newspapers
and by circulars, printed in the
home job printing shops, bearing
their imprints.
The committee in charge of pub
hcity has realized the truthfulness
of the above contention. and is
sparing no effort in the matter of
advertising the event. On the eighth
page of today's Weekly will be
found a complete explanation of
the purposes of the Trade Day to
be held April 18th and what you
may be fortunate enough to obtain

SPOUTS WATER AND MUD

The Winona Times of last week
reports rumors anent the Preston
well, near Winona, where drilling
has been in progress for the past
few months. The talk is that gas
broke lose, shooting water and mud
over the derrick; that oil sand was
struck and hard formation was
found upon which to set the casing.
Indications of oil were pronounced
enough to lead the drillers to with
draw fire from the engines to avoid
ignition OF the gusher. if it should
materialize. Oil sand was first
struck in this we'll, according to re-
ports, at $500 feet.
The state geologist. after viewing
this well at this stage. advised that
paying sand might be found at
greater depth, which decided the
drillers to continue the drilling.
New sites for oil wells are being
located in various parts of the state
as the interest grows. We under
stand that a drilling outfit is on
the way to sink well near Okolo-
ma. where traces OF oil have actually

been discovered. with prospect of 8
second we'll being sunk in that ter.
ritory right away.
Within go days an oil we'll will
be sunk in Oktibbeha county
about 10 miles west of West Point
according to accounts given by
newspapers in that locality.
Asphalt has been discovered
near Shubuta. which has been an
alyzed by the state geologist and
pronounced 68 per cent pure.
Coal is being mined near Acker-
man. in paying quantities.
These things point to facts not
heretofore known to the native pop
ulation, and indicate that Missis-
sippi has mineral resources which
are now on the verge of develop
ment.
Monroe county is as rich of prom
ise, especially of oil, as any other
section of the state, but our people
do not seem concerned about
bringing it to the surface as much
as elsewhere in the state.

YOUNG MAN SUPPOSED TO
HAVE TAKEN HIS OWN LIFE
Benton MCWhOrter. Young White
Man of Hamilton NeigbOrhoOd
Dies From Pistol Wound

Alleged family differences are
thought to have accentuated the
causes that led to a deplorable
tragedy which occurred few miles
north of Hamilton, near midnight
Monday, when Benton McWhorter,
an unmarried white man, met his
death from a pistol shot.
Young McWhorter had attended
a party at a neighbor's house that
night. and returning in company
with other young men, the party
stopped at the home of Plummer
Malone, WcWhorter bade his
friends good night. as it was thought
to go to his home, saying as he
departed, Boys, if you hear my
pistol shoot, come to me at once"
A short time afterwards pistol shot
was heard, and friends going in the
direction of the report found the
body of Benton McWhorter dead,
with a bullet hole centering his
forehead,
Justice C.. T Smith summoned
coroner's jury early Tuesday morn
ing, but so far we have failed to
learn the nature of the verdict rem
dered. However. the belief seems
prevalent that the young man came
to his death at his own hand.

MONROE COUNTY NOW HAS
PART time HEALTH OFFICER
AmOry Physician Accepts Posi-
ton, and Will Be Assisted by
Miss MiIIigan. Public Nurse

Everyone is familiar with the
splendid work that has been done
by the Health Department under
the able administration of DR.. f.
J. Underwood. especially during the
last two years. The success of his
work was, of course, largely due to
his especial fitness for the duties of
the office. But it must be remem-
bered that our Board of Supervisors
made liberal appropriation,
amounting to several thousand dol
lars per year, and this was supple
mented by the State Board of
Health and the international Health
Board. But it seemed wise to the
Supervisors to discontinue their
appropriation. and as a consequence
all outside help was withdrawn.
This forced us back to the old-time
and obsolete plan of part-time
health officer" with no funds at
his disposal and an inadequate
salary. Under these circumstances
it appears to be impossible to Sc
cure a doctor who was willing to
undertake the work.
The State Board of Health, which
has the appointing power. under
took to draft my services. For some
time [ felt that could not under
take the duties of the office under
such adverse conditions. especially
since it would be at considerable
financial sacrifice. But a meeting
of patriotic and public-spirited citi-
zens of AmOry was had and funds |
were raised from private sources to |
employ a public health nurse to
work with me and under my direc-
tions. Miss Ethel Milligan. who
has done much efficient work in the
county under the auspices of the
Red Cross, has been engaged for
some months. La view of these
facts. ! feel that cannot gracefully
refuse to do the best | can to fur
ther public health interest in Mon
roe county.
OF course. when the present f.
nancial crisis is passed the public
will have the right to expect their

TYPHOID ON THE WANE

During the past ten years the
State Board of Health has waged
an aggressive campaign against ty.
phoid fever. The efforts that have
been put forth show definite results
in the reduction of this disease,
both in cases, and deaths through
out the state.
During 1914, only about so per
cent of the physicians reporte d
cases of typhoid, and in 1920 over
80 per cent made reports. This
comparative statement should be
kept in mind in noting reduction of
typhoid fever from 1914 to 1920, in
elusive.
During 1914, 6,2O3 cases and 625
deaths were reported to the State
Board of Health. From 1914 to
1920. inclusive, the disease steadily
decreased in cases and deaths. 1t
is most gratifying to state that in
1920 only 2.644 cases were reported
and 364 deaths in 1919. The number
of deaths in 1920 has not been
compiled. This shows clearly a
reduction of about so per cent in
both cases and deaths from typhoid
fever during the past seven years in
Mississippi.
1t may be safely predicted that
in the next decade typhoid fever
will become a relatively rare di-
sease in Mississippi. provided the
health work is maintained upon an
aggressive and efficient basis. This
one result will be an adequate COM
pensation to the taxpayers of Mis-
sissippi for the money that has
been expended on health work.

BUSH VELVET. BEAN FAVORED
Particularly Useful With Corn as It
Does Not Make Harvesting
Difficult Problem.

Reports from 400 cooperators of the
United States Department of Agrfcul-
ture who tested bush velvet bean in
1920 for the first time are highly
commendatory. Three-fourths of
those reporting consider the bean a
market success, and over half of them
believe it to be superior to any other
variety, everything taken into con-
sideration. Two uses Of the bean
meet with particularly enthusiastic
praise. First, is its use in corn,
where it's nontwining habit Is very
desirable, as it does not pull the corn
down and make harvesting difficult
as do the twining varieties. Second,
1t is found ideal as cover and greer.
manure crop in citrus orchards, being
far superior for this purpose to any
other legume yet found. Its use
should considerably reduce the fer
tilizer bill for citrus orchards.

and ripped 'em out of their under
clothes that she'd sewed 'em up in last
fall, and they hit the path for the

they got their faces washed. Well,
then there was grand hooraw as
they all shucked themselves and
whirled in to tying each others
clothes up in hard knots, and fighting
about it, and such as that. Round
and round and over and under they
