ORGANIZATION OF
SCOUTS ASSURED
100000 Being Raised for Equipment
and Other Expenses-Kiwauians
Foster Move.

The Boy Scout Movement which has
been fostered in Brookhaven for a num-
ber of years by c. H Hamilton, busi-
ness man, DR.. R. D. Ripley and other,
received. decided impetus when the
Kiwanis Club voted to raise 100000
per year for a director and subscribed
a third of that amount at their lunch
con- An employed Director will soon
put the Scouts on their feet in per-
manent, progressive organizations; but,
in realizing the wisdom of this move
ment, we feel an expression of thanks
is due Messrs. Hamilton and Ripley for
their persistence in fostering the or
ganization so long without money and
without price.
The cause was also dear to the Ia
mented DIR. VIM. Cross; but, unfortu-
n6tely for this able and sincere leader
and ideal scout-master, there was nc
Kiwanis Club in his day to back the
boys and their organization. AS the
Club suggests these boys will be the
future Kiwanians and the community
will help to make them worthy.
The committee to raise the sum pied
ged: Messrs. M. ]. Hale, r. D. Ripley
G. B. Perkins, o. N. Arlington, Chas
Hamilton and r. B. anvil waised two
thirds of the amount needed IN about
three hours of solicitation, the Kiwanis
Club having previously raised one-third
which guarantees the employment Of q
Director for all boys between the ages
of IL and 21.
r. B. Wall was endorsed as Scout
Commissioner; c. H. Hamilton, Scout
Master and r. D. Ripley, assistant.
The invitation extended by the Lea
que of Women Voters to the Kiwanis
and their wives to meet with the League
Thursday evening, February 2S, was lac
cepted. The meeting will be held ir
the sub-story Of the M. e. Church.

FRIENDSHIP NEWS.

Our community is enjoying some Of
the best days in its history for various
reasons, with prospects of still great
er. Soon we will have the use of the
three bridges that have in way marred
the use of our newly constructed good
roads.
Last Saturday night we were favored
by an excellent recital by Misses Flow
ers, Afford, Guess and Becker of Whit
worth College. We are indeed grateful
to the young ladies' for the program
and wish to take this means Of thank
ing them for their kindness and gener-
osity, which seems to exist among all
the students of whitworth.
The boys and girls Of this eommun-
ity are very much enthused over the
idea that some day they may have the
privilege of going to a consolidated
school. They have begun to realize
just what it means for school to be
large enough to give proper attention
to each class, as well as to the indi-
viduaL For years our rural schools have
not been doing anything like what tho
leaders Of education would have them
do, but at last men and women. boys
ana girls are awakening to the oppor-
tunities that present themselves and
soon we hope to rank with the counties
Of the Northern States. who are far a.

cause we have slept on our own rights.
But soon. we hope to compare with
them more favorably than we have in
the past.

going to have a meeting this coming
week to discuss school problems and
consolidation. We are planning on hav-

HOW TO SAVE MONEY
ON FERTILIZERS
Careful Selecting and Buying Means
Saving thousands OF Dollars
to Lincoln Farmers.

Farmers of Lincoln county lose
thousands of dollars each year by not
selecting and buying their fertilizers CO.
operatiyely. We should buy fertilizers
as so many pounds of available plant
food, just like cream is bought on a
butter fat basis. Many farmers do not
know how to read a fertilizer analysis
and understand 1t. However, this is
no excuse as the Farm Bureau and
County Agent are always ready to help
formers of any community or individual
farmers with fertilizer analysis and
ready to help to buy the very best fer
tilizers for the least money.
In selecting Acid Phosphate, every
farmer should understand how to read
the analysis tag or the analysis print
ed on the side Of each tag. The Missis-
slppi Fertilizer Law requires each fac
tory to print the analysis on the bag or
on q tag. See to it that the sacks of
fertilizer you buy are properly tagged.
The following example will help to ex-
plain the reading of an Acid analysis
Example of analysis on tag or bag:-
Water Soluble Phosphoric Acid---149o
Citrate Soluble Phosphoric Acid 29o
Total available Phisphoric Acid----169 %
The Water Soluble Phosphoric Acid
is ready available for plants and the
Citrate Soluble Phosphoric Acid is less
available. Sacks of Acid bearing an
analysis of Water Soluble Phosphoric
Acid IL per cent and Citract Soluble
Fhosphoric Acid per cent is worth less
than the analysis given above. Also
the 1876 Acid is worth less than the
1874. The best grades run about 14-4.
Very few companies furnish a grade of
Acid that will test 14-4.
Learn to read the analysis Of your
mixed fertilizers too. Following is an
example which will explain the correct
reading Of the analysis of mixed fer
tilizer:-
Example of analysis on tag or bag:-
Water Soluble Phosphoric Acid 800
Citrate Soluble Phosphoric Acid---- go
Total Available Phisphoric Acid--1O%
nitrogen --------------------- 20
1oIdSn --------------------- zTo
This means that 100 pound sack of
fertilizer bearing tag with the above
analysis printed on it will contin
lbs. of water Soluble Phisphoric Acid
2 lbs. Citrate Soluble Phosphoric Acid
10 lbs. available Phosphoric Acid
2 lbs. Nitrogen
2 lbs. Potash
The ten pounds of Available Phos-
pboric Acid is the sum of the pounds
of Water Soluble" and pounds of
Citrate Soluble" Phosphoric Acid.
Then, there are three things which are
of use to the farmer-1O pounds of
Phosphoric Acid, 2 pounds Of Nitrogen
and 2 pounds of Potash. The total
number of pounds of useful materials
in a 100 pound bag Of fertilizer analyz-
ing as the above is IA. The other sc

PTOMAINE POISON
MAKES GIRLS SICK
M. S. o. w. students victims Of At.
tack Sunday-AI Are Now Re-
covering.

Columbus, Miss, Feb. 14.-Dr. c. M
Ship, representing the State Board of
Health, came to Columbus today to
make an official investigation of the
ptomaine epidemic at the Mississippi
spection issued the following state
n.ent:-
i II find the situation we'll in hand
and after a careful investigation and
personal visit with every patient in
the institution / am prepared to state
that there is absolutely no cause for
anxiety on the part of the parents OF
any girl in the college. The emergen-
ey last night was handled with mar
telous efficiency, and the remarkable
| results obtained shows the skill with
which the situation was handled and
the entire personnel of the staff at the
college is to be highly commended.
Ny theory of the trouble is that ii
was slight case Of ptomaine poison
ing which is liable to occur in the most
scrupulously kept kitchens and dining
rooms. I have made very careful and
rigid inspection Of the kitchens and
they meet every sanitary requirement
even in the minutest detail.
THE kitchens at the college here have
always come up to the most rigid san
Itary requirements. The State Board
Of Health has required it in the inter-
est of the health of the students. and
the unfortunate incident Sunday is one
that might occur in the best kept lxitch-
ems in the finest hotels and clubs in
the country.
II cannot speak too highly of the e
mergency service rendered by the col
Iege staff They employed the proper
medicinal remedies and the response
and relief seems to have been imme-
diate. Tonight. every girl is receiving
the closest medical attention. the same
attention she would receive were she
in one Of the finest hospitals in the
country, In closing I want to empha-
size that there is no cause for alarm
or anxiety on the part Of anyone, that
the critical stage has long since been
passed and everything at the institution
will be back to normal In few hours"

ISSUE no BE DECIDED.

The action Of the committee has the
effect Of transferring the fight to the
House, the committee will submit Its
report Thursday morning and the issue
as to whether legislative inquiry shall
be ordered will be fought out on the
floor.
The contest in committee revealed
the fact that the anti-Russell forces
were divided. One group favored the
resolution. while another group opposed
it. The opposition it is understood.
was mainly based on political grounds.
Members who held this view were Of the
opinion that the proposed investigation
might have the effect Of putting Gov
crnor Russell on political pedestal.
The Russell faction in committee lined
UP solidly against the resolution, and
those forces. combined with the anti
Russellites who opposed the plan for
an investigation gave the opposition q
decided majority.
