since a straight line is the

In 1888 the Union Female College
was established in Oxford on the site
now known as the training school
grounds. This was the second insti-
tuition Of learning established within
the Chickasaw Cession, the first be-
ing the fernando Academy at Hern-
ando, Miss. This college was at one
time the oldest female school in\the
state with an unbroken history. In
1854, it passed under the control of
the Cumberland Presbyterian Church
and in 1904 was sold as a Training
School for boys. The building has
since burned.
The North Mississippi College loca-
ted at College Hill was incorporated
in 1910. A quarter-section of land
was donated for site and a tenn
porary building erected. It flourished
for awhile but was overshadowed by
the University of Mississippi and was
completely destroyed by the war. It's
property is still used as the site Of
a public school.
Two half sections of land lying
west of Oxford were purchased by
the citizens of Oxford and Lafayette
County and donated to the state for
the location of the State University.
This site was chosen in 1874. The
first session opened in 1848. During
the Civil War the buildings of the
University were occupied some times
by the Confederate soldiers and some
times by the Federal. Chancellor
Barnard, Baynton, and others who
were in the North, secured the in
terest Of General Grant in the pro-
lection of the property and apparatus
belonging to this institution while oc-
cupied by the Federal troops. These
were but little damaged.
Mount Sylvon Academy for boys,
located at Mount Syloan in Lafayette
County, was established in 1916 under
Rev. S. G. Borney, D. D. and Rev.
Robert Morris, D. D. Col. Jones
Brown was chief benefactor by his
donation of more than $1,000.
The Warren Female Institute was
located in Oxford about 1855 by Mrs.
Harper, wife of the Prof. of Agricul-
ture and Geology in the University of

1882.

|COTTON CONSUMPTION
SHOWS BIG INCREASE
Largest Monthly Total Re-
ported Since June, 1920.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1.-THE largest
monthly consumption of cotton since
June. 1920. occurred during October. a
total OF 5S3, $50 bales of lint having been
used by manufacturers. The Census
Bureau announced to-day that this was
an increase of $500 bales over septem-
Der consumption and about the same In
crease over October last year.
The consumption in cotton growing
States was almost $4,000 bales more
than, in October year ago and the num-
ber of active spindles in that region
showed an increase of almost half mil
lion. while spindles in all other States
numbered about 100000 fewer than In
October last year.
Cotton on hand October 81 was held
as follows: In consuming establish
ments. 1,379,770 bales of lint and 82,169
OF linters, compared with 1.39s.13S of
lint and 1887 of linters a year ago; in

902 bales of lint and 1852 OF linters,
compared with 4,9S4.S31 of lint and

OLD LONGS LOWER
COTTON FUTURES
Unloading Lops Prices 20 to
81 Points After Early Up
ward Movement.

Unloading OF old bull cotton, in some
prominent interests, carried yesterdays
market for the staple 90 to 81 points
net lower after II had exhibited firm
ness and advanced about that much IN
earlier dealings. Closing quotations
were around tho lowest OF the day. The
late selling movement undoubtedly was
Influenced to some extent by the action
of securities prices. It led to scattered
Wall Street liquidation of long lines
which uncovered stop loss orders. The
resistance offered on the way down
was of poor quality and aroused some
further speculation as to whether the
market was not about ready for de-
cided downward turn.
Talk of technical weakness was again
aroused, and the reaction probably
would have been much sharper had
not several bullish factors appeared
during the forenoon. The Census
Bureaus report estimated consumption
during October at 533.950 running
bales, compared with 495.344 bales in
September and 1897 bales in Octo-
Der, 1921. This, however. had been
partly discounted. Another bullish fac
tor was the firmness of Liverpool In
face of European troubles. At the
time of the local call Liverpool was 8
to 10 points better than due.
Although the early trend was upward.
a good deal of realizing came into the
ring and brought about temporary de-
preston. Initial sales were about the
best made, being up some 20 to 30
points. with trade interests. Liverpool
and Wall Street buy NC on the first call.
japanese interests. the South and local
longs sold. Up to the end of the third
hour the market displayed a fairly firm
undertone with all options somewhat
better than Mondays finals. From
then on the trend was lower.
The local spot market was quoted 35
points lower at 26 cents a pound for
middling. It's sales were 200 bales. The
New Orleans market was off 25 points
at 26.12 cents. Its sales totaled 1871
bales.

TRAIN CONTROL IS IMPROVED
Detroit Convention Hears Also of
Standardizing safety Rules.

Progress toward the extension of au-

the committee on safety of railroad
operation at the annual convention of
tho National Association of Railway
and Utilities Commissioners starting IN
Detroit yesterday. AS ordered last June
by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion. automatic train control embraces
automatic train stop and automatic
speed control. The Importance of ef-
ficient power brakes was also stressed
in the committees report.
Members of the association. which in
cludes in its personnel representatives
of the various State regulatory bodies
throughout the country. listened to a
report by the committee on roalroad
service accommodations and claims and
on public ownership and operation. In
its report the committee on safety of
operation of public utility companies
pointed out that of the forty-eight rail-
way and utility commissions in the
United States twenty-nine have adopted
safety rules relating to the construction
and operation of electrical supply and
signal lines, and of these about eight
follow the national electrical safety
code. The present work of this COM
mittee Is toward broader srandardiza-
ton of rules in the various States.

CHICAGO, Nov. 14.--Wheat tended up

Strength in Italian exchange was said
TO be particularly associated with higher
prices for November wheat at Duluth

quest than May or July. and the trade

funds is relatively large exposes the

outlook.
With the further Improvement In
business and with progressive increases
in industrial activity this danger will
be gradually eliminated through the
absorption Of funds by commercial bor-

RECORD WHEAT CROP
IN ARGENTINA FORECAST
Large Production of Oats and
Floxseed Probable Also.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 14.-Argentina's
1929 wheat crop probably will reach a
record, according to the first estimate Of
production, received to-day by the De-
partment of Agriculture from the In
ternational Institute OF Agriculture at
Rome. A harvest of 215.320,000 bushels
was forecast. compared with 1S0,641,000
last year. The acreage is l6.0S1.00O.
compared with 13,S27.000.
A large crop of oats, probably a
record one, also is being grown in Ar
gentina. The first forecast places It
at 49,600,000 bushels from 2,61S.0o0
acres. compared with production of
32.97S.000 bushels from 2.1o5,o0o acres
last year
This years fiaxseed crop In Argentina,
the worlds largest grower of that
product, is forecast at 60.270. 900 bushels,
almost double the crop of last year
and probably the largest ever grown.
