|GRAPE VINES HAVE
 BIG YIELD IN 1922.
More Than 50,00O Cars Shipped Up to November Y

Buffalo, Dec. 2o.--yineyards of the United States produced bumper crop of grapes in 1922. Total carlot ship ments from all sections up to and in- cluding November 17th were 51,254 cars, an increase compared with 1921 of 14.0b3 cars. or about 36h per cent, laccording to a summary issued by the state department of farms and markets.
 i In the 51 thousand odd cars were a total of 1925. .0s0,000 pounds of grapes, which would be sufficient to supply approximately ten pounds of grapes to every individual In tho United States. They were worth, at an averave price of $70 ton, $35,- $50, ,000.
 Two causes contributed to make the season a profitable one for eastern grape growers. A car shortage in the west cut California's normal ship ments about 35 per cent, and there was an increased demand for private consumption and grape juice manu- lecturers in the east. It also was q year of unprecedented yields in east ern vineyards.
 New York, Pennsylvania and Mich Iigan, the three principal grape states, made enormous gains in carlot ship ments and there also was heavy movement by truck because of the prevailing car shortage in the east as well as in the west. Michigan figures ls.Y. i'd ,tc nf nar cent; Pennsylvania, 2SS per cent, and New York POI per cent. The crop of these three states alone brought Approximately s10.000.00O. Truck shipments in the three states, which lare not included in the department s figures, are estimated at 10000 tons. worth another million and half dollars.
 Statistics on destinations of the lMichigan New York Pennsylvania crop show that Pittsburgh took the largest number of cars for the sea- |son, with total of 1,726. Philadel- phia was second with 1,476 cars. Other large distributing points for the crop were: Chicago 1,141 cars; Bos- ton 1,032 cars; Cleveland SsS cars, and New York city 5S2 cars The city lfarthest from the productive centers to market grapes in volume was St. Louis, with 157 cars of Michigan fruit, five from Pennsylvania, and 26 cars from New York state. Milwaukee LOOK I1S6 cars from Michigan, 12 from Pennsylvania, and 21 from New York.
 The price paid by grape juice fac |tories this year averaged s65 a ton, Icompared with $130 in 1920 and s9e lin 1919. No grapes were pressed ln l1921 because of the high tax and the lpoor condition of the crop, due to early frosts. The lowest price on rec | ord at grape juice factories was iu ItS97 when s1O ton was the aver

PUBLIC ENDORSES
 NOBEL PRIZE AWARD
Swedish Institute Announces Rea-
 sons for Choice of Winners <

Stockholm, Dec. 20.-The reasons for its choice of prize winners in this years awards Of $200,0o0 have been This Swedish institution awards an- nual prizes of $40,000 each for nota- ble achievement in the fields of physics, chemistry, medicine, litera- ture, and in the cause of peace. Some times the list of names selected is more or less surprising to the pub lie at large, but in general the wisdom and insight of the judges is endorsed.
 Literature Award.
 The award in literature, which seems to arouse more popular inter- est than any other, goes this year, not to Thornas Hardy, as had been hoped by his Swedish friends, but to the Spanish playwright Jacinto Bena- vente who, though little known out side of his own country, is said to have done more than any other dra- matist to modernize, and bring. fresh stimulus to the Spanish theater He has written about so plays during the last 80 years. His comedies of so ciaI satire are directed at contempo rary life in Spain, and he is not un- like Bernard Shaw in his ability to hold up the mirror to human nature. He is original lin point of view. and refined in style.ts9
 Prize in Physics. q
 Professor Albert Einstein, of Ger many, received the 1921 prize in physics, not for his famous theories of relativity, but for his discovery and elucidation of law regarding elec- irons and the photo-electric effect of atoms. This law" said a prom -inent Swedish scientist, lis the bridge which leads from theories concerning atomatic structure to facts which can be experimentally verified"
 1922 Prize.
 The physics prize for 1922 goes to Professor Niels Bohr of Denmarks, who is only 37 years of age and the youngest person who has ever re- ceived a Nobel prize, for his discov- cry of methods by which the inner structure of atoms may be studied. He has, in fact been able to con- struct atoms artificially which corre- spond in substance and spectrum an- alysis to the natural particles, Pro- lessor Bohr is of the opinion that every scientific advance, even those which for time may seem only aca- demic and fruitleSs, will some day have a direct practical value to hu- manity. M
 This Years Awards.
 No announcement of awards of this years prizes for medicine and peace have been made. It will be remem- bered that Americans have already captured three peace prizes. Theo- dore Roosevelt, Elihu Root, and woodrow Wilson were the winners in 1908, 1912, and 1919 respectively.
 The Nobel Institute was established by the will of Alfred Nobel, Swedish scientist, best known for his inven- ton of dynamite. who bequeathed his entire fortune of 30,000,000 kronor, about $s,o00,00o for this purpose. The first annual prizes were distrib- uted in 1901.

BANKS CAN AID IN
 PROMOTING READING
President of Association Says They Can Bring Books to Public

Milwaukee. Wis. Dee. 20.--The part that banks can play in bringing to the attention of their customers the desirability. pleasure and profit to be gained by reading good books, Is shown in an article by J. H. Pue licher, president of the American Bankers Association appearing in the bulletin of the American Library association.
 "A list of books on national and international Taffairs could be placed In the pass gbook of the businessman" said MT. Yuelicher. "A list of books concerning modern accountancy, busi- ness law and practice could be given out with the accountants pass book, while q list on composition and let ter writing might be handed the ste ncgraphcr. At the savings window, lists of books on literature could be distributed and lists of miscellaneous books might be enclosed with the monthly statement.
 Illitcracy Serious.
 "Thc intelligence test during the war showed much illiteracy. It aroused many to serious thought. It made many feel that they had not properly supported the public school systems. It showed that the ills of America were largely economic.
 '"The fact that the banker and the teacher had often co-operated, the teacher in speaking before bankers conventions. the banker in serving on school boards brought forth the idea maybe the banker could further aid the teacher.
 The committee on public educa- ton of the American Bankers asso- citation had 10 lectures prepared to be delivered before seventh and

Surely this is the Garden of Eden !!
Every plant, tree and herb of the
fields good for man and beast; and
every fowl of the air is found here!
The chestnut, chinquipin, hickory
nut and scaley bark grow wild, in
abundance. The pecan, walnut,
peach, apple, pear, fig, plum and
apricot are cultivated everywhere,
and the yield is enormous. Besides
the wonderful nut and fruit crops,
as sign of Gods special 'handi-
work" is the beautiful green car
pets of alfalfa, lespedeza, clover, and
Johnson grass. To see the fields
with this wonderful covering of
green in December and January,
from which four and five cuttings of
hay is made later, is sure sign of
Gods smiles on Northeast Mississ-
ippi.
When one has seen the beautiful
hay fields, and the marvellous Or
chards, one has seen but small part
of the contents of this veritable
Eden. The strawberry, raspberry,
grape and scuppernong, each have a
very important place in this garden.

wild throughout this section. Every
