STILL HOPING FOR
 MOOERS TOREPORT

Word is expected to be received Gene McCann in a day or so as to his luck in trying to engineer the deals for Glen KiIlinger and pitcher John Quinn of the Yankees. As McCann is after an infielder KilIinger no doubt would fill in satisfactorily as he play cd third base last season for Penn. State. He is equally as fast in the out field as in the inner line of defense.
 Pitcher Quinn who is a righthander is highly thought of by Miller Huggins. He is a semi-pro and pitched for some of the strongest independent clubs ia the Dixie belt last season. He had sev-

 August is a pretty boxer He fast and keeps his opponent on the run all the time. He carries a right and left cIout, second to none. I have no hesitancy to say he will come through.

 The local club has not lost all hope that Ed. MoOers will report here to play second base. A few weeks ago McCann received a letter from the Virginian that he was satisfied with the terms offered, but that his father in-law was adverse to him playing professional ball. On the other hand Mrs. Mooers who is bride of less than a year entertains no objection to Eddie playing. Therefore Mooers is ''twiXt the devil and the deep sea-

County Agents Make Many
Cooperative Purchases.
The county agents of Mi'ssls-
sippi have purchased within the
State through farmers organiza-
tions 228,00O bushels of improves
cotton seed and delivered them
to the farmers. The most OF these
were transformed from one county
to another. The records of the
Mississippi Plant Board show
that permits were issued Tor 1922
112 bushels to be shipped into the
State. Of this amount 72,0OO
bushels were handled by county
agents, making the total handled
by county agents 100000 bushels.
Fully 100000 bushels of the total
amount were of improved staple
varieties. None of it will produce
cotton that will staple less than
ONE inch.
No correct estimate can be
made of final value that these
seed will be to the farmers OF
Mississippi. With the develop
ment of the Mississinpi Farm Bu-
reau Cotton Association, whereby
the farmers can sell their cotton,
according to staple and grade and
receive the full market value, a
very rapid Improvement in the
cotton seed of Mississippi is pre-.
dicted. This will not only be OF
inestimable value to the farmers,
but will be equally valuable. for
the business men of the State.
