FAIR PRICES FOR
NURSERY STOCK

Mr.. w. P. James, of the A. & NJ
College, who is State Friut Special
ist, writs The Dispatch under date Of
September End. 1t would be well fol
all persons who contemplate the pur.
chase of nursery stock to read the
letter of Mr.. James IN order that
they may not be swindled by dishon-
est fruit tree agents Mr. James
says: S'iFt'' i
GAS usual there are some fruit tree
iagents at large over the state who
are selling trees for fall delivery at
absurd and unjust prices, such as
$500 for peach trees. These fellows
are hurting the business of the reli-
able fruit tree agents and the fruit in
dustry as a whole. Perhaps you would
be interested IN publishing few facts
about the prices of fruit trees at this
time. Through your County Agent or
Home Demonstration Agent, if you
have one, you people can obtain the
following fruit trees delivered at
about the prices given, or less, ac-
cording to amount of freight charged
PEACHES: IS to "a inch June
Buds at II cents each. This is the
size which gives the best satisfaction.
2 to feet trees can be bought for
Ia cents.
APPLES: 2 to feet trees at Is
cents, and to a feet trees at 20 cents.
The smaller size is best for CONNER
cial planting.
PEARS: 2 to 3 feet trees at 25
cents, 3 to feet trees at 30 cents.
GRAPES: l year old at Is cents,
year old at % cents.
PECANS: 3 to 4 feet trees at 80
cents.
STRAWBERRIES: at $3.50 per
thousand.
These trees Of course, come from
reliable nurseries only and from nur-
series accredited by the Mississippi
State Plant Board.
The honest nursery agent asks no
more than a fair profit, to which he
most assuredly is entitled. The prices
quoted County Agents cover only the
actual cost of trees and the transpor-
.ation. Allow the fruit agent a good,
profit over the above
actual delivered prices and mo more

TAXING GASOLINE
TO RAISE REVENUE

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 2.-The sug-
gestion of putting tax on gasoline
and gasoline distributing stations, as
proposed by Atty Gen. Frank Rober-
son, has interested statisticians about
the capitol in the question of how
much tax would be raised by tax of,
say, cents per gallon on each dis
tributfng station. There are no sta
tistics available as a guide and an ap-
Proclamation can only be made. The
automobile bureau issued 10000 auto
tags for this year and has ordered
1000 additional tags. This covers
motor trucks and cars. There are no
figures as to the number of gasoline
engines or the amount of gasoline
used for other purposes. The total
gasoline consumption of the state per
annum is, therefore, a matter of
speculation. Besides the motor We
hicles owned in the state there are
hundreds of cars touring through the
state daily and hundreds of cars being
bought daily. Estimates vary from
$4,000 year to $4,000 a year for
the next biennial period.

Providing Scooba and Columbus
split even on the above two games,
they will toss a coin to decide which
town the third and deciding game is
played IN.
