The ceremony was performed
at 5: o'clock Bp. Marion Flake

All members oil the immediate
families were present at the
ceremony. The bride wore a
beautiful gown of white geor-
gette and crepe de chine, while
the groom was dressed in the
conventional black.
Both of these young people are
known to practically everyone
in this section. The bride, a
beautiful and accomplished dau-
ghter of John A. Freeman, is a
native of this place and has lived
here all her life. The groom is
son of Mr.. and Mrs. John Hatch

red headed.

credit for a part of which, at
least, we believe we deserve.
Among these changes the follow
lug are worthy of note.
Besides the construction of a
goodly number of beautiful new
homes, both of our magnificent
school buildings, the Academy
and the public school, have been
constructed. Bushman's store
has been built, the Bank build
ing has been increased in size,
the Snowflake Hotel building
and our new post Office have been
constructed.
Again, motor transportation
now takes the place of freight
wagons and buckboards, while
first class graded roads stand
where once mud ruts greeted the
gaze.
Moreover, our enormous tim
Der resources lying adjacent
have at last attracted sufficient
capital until we now have a rail-
road at the terminus of which
the largest saWmill in the south
west stands. Electric lights
supplant the kerosene lamps we
found here. and we have gradu-
ated from a one horse village to
a town with self government and
all its frills.
Politically, we have had but
one stand: we are A Non PAR

campaign year, we take this op-
portunity to announce that we
shall treat everybody alike and
that will be, in the language of

To Change Name of Ok
tibbeha to Jersey County

Hon. W, W. Magruder in his
introduction of Mr.. Cannon, who
put on the Jersey cattle pictures
at the Rex Theatre Saturday morn,
ing, stated that there will be an
effort made to change the name of
Oktlbbeha county to Jersey .coun-
tv. The name 'Oktihbeha" is so
clearly identified with Jersey cattle
that the change would not be nec~
essary to better advertise the couns
ty as a Jersey center. Oktibbeha
county is known nationally as the
home of the Jersey. aud Jersey
county" would have to start out
and make new reputation, and it
would take a new generation to
adapt Itself to the change. Let us
stick to old Oktibbeha, the name
given the county by our forefathers.

BOIL WEEVlLS WORK
IN WET WEATHER.
Poison WeeviIs With Calcium Arsenate.
Must Be Done in Wet and Dry
Weather

If YOU expect to whip the boil
weevil III fair fight, YOU have got
to show as much energy as he
does-Whlch means that, though
the operation may be both difficult
and unpleasant. poisoning must
be done when the plants are wet
and the ground muddy, so says the
United States Department of Agri-
culture with regard to poisoning
the weevil with calcium arEenate.
Tae department has found that.
during the critical stage. the poi-
soning should be done at inter-
walls Of about four DAYS. Two
or three applications made in good
weather, may have got the weevils
under control. Then there comes
Il rainy spell and the farmer let's
the time tor poisoning pass while
he waits for fair weather. But that
is exactly the time when the weavil
is busiest. The numbers are, hken
lY to increase 50 rapidly that the
control already gained ID lost. In
that event, the weevil inilicts about
rs much damage as if no poisoning
had been done and the farmer
loses. in addition, what he has
spent III poisoning operations.
The only way to prevent that sort
Of result is 10 let wet weather inter-
fere as little as possible with poisono
ing operations. Stick to the
schedule, the department says, re-"
gardless of weather conditions.
The department realizes, Of
curse, that poisoning cannot be
done in pouring rain, but the farm
er. the SPECIALISTS urge, should take
advantage Cf the earliest Cpportu-
nifty to get back into the field after
the rain, that he should make every
effort to get the cotton again DUST
ed regularly, even though fair
weather does not seem certain. He
can afford, they saw. to put On
poison even in unsettled weather.
1t may be washed off aRaIn shortly,
but, on the other nand, the weather,
even when it looks most threaten
ing, may stay fair long enough to
allow weevil to operate. Every
farmer, ii is pointed out, must e4s
pect to lose some position by rain.
but the operation ID sufficiently
profitable to justify it.

Why the Cat Comes Back.

The inevitability Of the cats re-
turn is traditional, But it is only
now that scientist has undertaken
to discover why. Prof, Francis
II. Herrick. of Western Reserve
University, has new theory,
reached after experiments with nu-
merous cats purposelY lost. One
was cast away eight times, and 1T
was Onlv on the last, l6 - miles
from home, that it failed to show
up. 1t may have met with an &c.
cident, so that hardly counts.
The professor took them away in
guuDy sacks and numerous other
direction def ing couyeyances. even
bIindtUlded, and III one instance
under complete auesthesla. But
they always came back, except III
the one instance. lie has, there's
fore. reached the conclusion that
cats must have "a direction con.
slant" with reference to their home
region which they retain despite
all manner Ol twisting ana turns
inps in route.
What is u direction CONSTANT !
The professor confesses he is una
bic to prove it, bat he is inclined
to believe the secret of this power
lies in a kinesthetic or muscle sense
older by far than hearing, smells
ing or seeing" Now you know
