FARM BUREAU COTTON POOL.
ING ON A BOOM IN NESHO-
BA COUNTY

The past week was very successful
In Neshoba County and In other
counties in the State OF Mississippi,
there being several Thousand bales
signed up during the week. The
greatest thinking men OF the South
land and the United states, think
that this is the greatest movement
that has ever confronted the cotton
producers and the prosperity OF the
country We in this county are be-
ginning to wake up to this great op.
portunity and some OF our most pro-
gressive farmers In the county are
lining up with this great system oil
marketing the greatest commodity
we southern people produce, and 1T
being our greatest and most impor-
tand cash crop, we should produce
plenty OF food stuff and then produce
our part pf the cotton crop which Is
so necessary to clothe the people OF
the world. When we have produced
the cotton we should not stop there
for the production is only one half OF
the business; we should line up with
the Mississippi Farm Bureau Cotton
Association and market our cotton
orderly and systematically so as to
eliminate waste and lost motion be
tween the cotton producer and the
consumer.
This cotton association is open
for all men who produce or control
cotton from one bale up TO several
Thousand bales. Wenow have about
two hundred members I'm this conn
ty who have lined up with this cot
ton association with balage from
one half uf bale to one hundred bales
each. The cotton association wan ts
to help everv cQtfsla grover to se-
cure the highest possible price and
best grade for the cotton they grow.
and especially want TO market the
cotton for the producers who would
like to help themselves. Before the
campaign shall have closed in the
state we would like to see practical
ly every farmer in the county in this
Farm Bureau Cotton Association.
Had this cotton association been or
ganized To handle this falls cotton
crop, the producers could have Sc
cured from 50 to so percent OF the
money on the crop and would have

Coat Suit With Drastic Severity
BY ANNE RITTENHousE.

PARIS.-Jenny is one of the dress
makers in Paris who make it a point
to study the American figure. What
ever she may do for the French wom-
an during ten months of the year,
she attempts to please the Ameri-
cans in February and August, during
the two months they do the bulk OF
their clothes buying in France.
She makes a tailored frock. also
coat suit, with the drastic severity
the American considers correct for
her national costume. She does not
overload it with gewgaws, nor does
she inject complexities of cut and
drapery into it, as Vionnet does.
This year she has evolved a tai
lored frock of brown cloth. a weave
of wooden poplin which she offers as
a substitute for serge and kasha. The
color is chestnut brown and the jack
ct, short and youthful. is of that new
astrachan cloth that Rodier makes.
think. 1t Is sterner stuff than shaved
lamb. which many dressmakers Of
fer as a seasonal novelty.
She also makes coat suit in gray
which has it's masculine severity off
set by the coquetry of scallops These
Victorian curves finish the hem of
the jacket, also of the skirt. The
coat flares a bit at the side and fas-
tens with one button at the waist
line. There are long revers and a
high cravat of henna velvet ribbon.
1t is this cravat that causes one to
pause and think
1t is not a new trick with Jenny. to
put high choker collar about d bare
neck. She did it last February, and
one of the best American tailors
quickly copied the idea. 1t gives
them chance to offer women some
alleviation of the ugliness caused by
a hard line of rough material rest
ing against the flesh, an ugliness
that America dislikes, but has never
had the bravery to resist and over
turn.
The separate high collar was the
forerunner of fashion. All the
French dressmakers have taken il
up this year. There are cravats of
Orleans blue. of Italian terra Gotta, of
black and chestnut. 1t is considered
smarter to wear these in Paris than
a piece of fur.
The separate collar was strongly
featured at Deauville There is :,
whisper that the French are making
an effort to eliminate the necessity
Tor fur on account of its scarcity and
the impossibility of getting more
from Russia. and there seems to be
reason to believe this report 1t is
corroborated by one of the best dress
makers here. The suede jackets. the
immense cravat, the Jacket that but
tons to the chin. the high velvet and
cloth collar, are evidences of it.

Facial Message.

Most women are familiar with the

The strokes are upward and outward:

eyes. smooth out the frowning lines
across the forehead. iron over the

and come in again toward the nose.

tip with particular pressure on the
nostrils. The motion begins again
At the chin, crosses the mouth to
smooth out the ugliest wrinkles of
all, lifts the sagging muscles of the
cheek and the fingers end their stroke
in front of the ear.
This with variations is all their is
to that mysterious and often costly
rite called facial massage. In my
opinion any massage stroke which
does not pull down the muscles. or
which does not stretch the skin Is
beneficial 1t isn't the variety OF
massage as much as the fact that
there IL massage at all which counts.
