SPRING A NEW ONE

AS you walk along the streets OF
this town, what do you see! Wnat
do you think? What do you say!
Possibly there is some obstruction
In the way, some repairs that are
needed, or some improvement that
could be made.
You see the possibilities, but dc
your thoughts get beyond the con-
fines of your own brain? Do you
spring them for the benefit of your
fellow citizens?
A bottle of champagne is only an
aggrevation to a parched throat un-
til the cork is pulled.
It is so with those ideas you are
carrying around in your head but
never allow to become public.
Spring them-all of them.
Some may be impractical, and Il
so they will be cast aside and ne
one will be harmed.
But among the number there may
be one that is of inestimable value
to our community.
That is the one we want-the on
we need-but we can't benefit from
it until you pull the cork from you
! thinkery.

STATE FAIR WILL
BE OCTOBER 1921

The Mississippi State Fair will be-
gin this year on the 10th of Octber.
This is several days earlier that it
has been held for several years.
Contrary to the custom of the
previous years, the ever-popular
automobile races will be held upon
the first instead of the last day.
The first day has always been dull,
on account of the authorities not
being able to have the exhibits, etc.
on hand before then. But this
change will attract larger crowds,
and add to the excitement
In addition to automobile races on
Monday, the Rotary Club, Boy
Scouts, Daughters of the American
Revolution, Chamber of Commerce,
and League of Women Voters, all
of Jackson will be in charge of the
program. A parade in the morning,
automobile races in the afternoon,
and pageant at night by the
Daughters of the American RevOlu
ton will be among the features to
be found by visitors.

TO YOUNG MEN

The young men and boys have or
ganized,
A prayer service to help boys In their
lives.
Last meeting our attendance was 1O9.
Help us this Saturday to pass that
line.
At the Istrione Theatre every Satur-
day,
AT noon, we meet, sing, talk and
pray.
We want every Jackson boy,
To meet with us there and share
this joy.
All visitors to Jackson a welcome
awaits.
All denominations, that's what we
are,
We know not what you are, neither
do we care.
We want you boys to meet with us
every week,
And help some poor boy, whom God
does seek
request,
And all the boys will do their best
To help poor boys and save
Some one from the wretched and sin
full grave.
Pray for us and we will pray for
you,
And we will be able to carry this
battle through.
Don't forget just thirty minutes each
week of your time,
Helping some poor soul God to find.
The men of tomorrow are the boys of
today;
SO won't you help them to be trained
in the right way?
You will never find happier young
man
Than the boy who is serving Christ
the best he can.

BEEF PRICES ARE
SURE TO RISE IN
TWELVE MONTHS

An exhaustive investigation of the
cattle industry in this country, made
by some of the large farm magazines
of the east, shows an alarming short
age of all types of beef cattle. The
great stock yards of Chicago, Kansas
City and Omaha are almost bare OF
prime stock and heavy falling off
In Gamers and undersiZe stock Is
noted. The feeder pens are barren
and the corn farmers of the middle
west are having a hard time finding
feeder stock for their lots this win
ter. From every section oil the coun-
try the same report is in evidence.
The short sighter policy of the
packers and brokers and meat gambl-
ers has wiped out the surplus of the
breeding stock and it will be several
years before it can be replaced.
HerfOrd bulls are at premium IN
the middle west and in many places
not to be had.
Next year meat prices will rise
two or three times above their pres
ent levels. The Rankin county farm
er with bunch of young steers will
do well to swing on to them at all
Cost IoF tHey medH growing pIolieS'
1t is a common knowledge that cattle
raised in this section has barely paid
the freight charges when shipped to
st. Louis and Chicago. This has
probably caused an increase in the
number of cattle in this section.
Over the country generally, however
it has been just the opposite. Mil
lions of calves have been slaughter,
ed because the cattle men could moi
see where there was profit to be
made in cattle. The packers have
manipulated the price, robbing the
producer, until thousands of feeders

CRIBS SHOULD BE
CLEANED BEFORE
CORN is GATHERED

a. x NJ College. Miss, Sept. Do
Now is the time for farmers TO begin
making preparations to prevent
weevil damage to their corn this
winter, according to the State Plant
Board, which advises that all old
corn be removed. the cribs swept
out clean, and the floors and walls
made as tight as possible.
From many observations made, ii
is evident that weevil damage is
usually greatest in corn fields near
barns, consequently such corn should
be stored separately and fed as soon
as possible. Another important
measure mentioned is sorting the
weevil-infected ears from the other
corn when it is gathered This may
be done by having barrel in the
wagon to hold the infested ears,
which are emptied in separate
place at the barn for immediate feed
ing.
Weevil damage can also be great
ly reduced by selecting seed corn
with long shucks extending well out
beyond the tip of the ear and cover
ing it completely. Experiments have
shown that such ears will be un-
damaged even when exposed to the
weevils for months. Fumigation
with carbon bisulphide or High
Life" is very effective against
weevils in tight cribs and should be
used before the weevils are numerous
enough to damage the corn seriously.
A circular on fumigation with car
bon bisulphide may be obtained by
writing the State Plant Board. A. &

have quit the business; parent herds
have been shipped to the slaughter
ing pens and the great plains country
with It's millions of heads of grazing
stock is but memory so Iar as
cattle Is concerned. OF course, all
this means higher prices to the con-
sumner, but it also means that the
packers will have to bid high anoth-
er year to get cattle at all. The STU
alton has changed and Is III the
hands of the producer now. The man
with thirty or forty head OF cows
and something to feed them on TINS
fall and winter will find handsome
profit in his stock before the winter

The more the appointment Of Miss

blatant the efrontery Of the Board
Of Education in voting for her ap-
pears. In her behalf such items are
urged as that she had two full years
in high school as preparation for
teaching and once served on an
ushers' committee Of an educational
convention. Before such talk argu-
ment is absurd. There cannot be
even a pretense that anything but

Miss MeCooey 10 her new job and
salary.
Nor do we see how any hope OF
better things for the future can be
made cut. Any school board that
would make a Tsmmany appoint
ment like this to a high post would
not know how to refuse any political
demand or blush at any political job.
Plainly, Tammany has entered into
full control Of the schools. Mr..
Hylan takes the defeat Of Governor
Miller and the election Of a Tam
many Governor as full license to 20
TO it. The morale Of the teaching
force and the efficiency Of the teach
ing system are out the window.
Tammany is in the chair.
1t is not a pleasant prospect for
the parents Of the city or for the
teachers or for the children. But
chief sympathy belongs TO the chill
dren. They are the worst sufferers,
and they did not vote for Tammany'
as did the vast majority Of parents
and teachers.

Cropping

In suddenly advocating q subway
under Third Avenue, which was no
part Of the transit plan he solemnly
promulgated in August, Mayor Hy-
Ian shows how little faith even he
reposed in his ability to solve the
traction problem by drawing lines
across the map OF New York.
The Third Avenue subway scheme
is Of as little value in the existing
emergency as was the fantastic sys-
tenn the Mayor advocated in August.
II contemplates the removal Of the
Third Avenue Elevated, which is
now and will for many years be
needed to relieve the tension on the
East Side subways to the Bronx.
Mr.. Hylan issues a subway plan
whenever one has been issued by the
Transit Commission, believing that
imitation viii get him the reputation
for accomplishment. OF all the
methods he has thus far proposed
for bettering transit conditions this
Third Avenue subway plan is the
elumsiest and most impracticable.

Nothing to Shudder At

While Senator Borah declsims at
Washington against French "mili-
,arisnv a French Minister Of
Marine sadly announces in the
Paris Chamber that the French
navy is dying. It is formidable al
present. he tells as, only in the mat
ter Of adnirals. Of whom seventy
five are on the active list. There arc
only twelve French battleships, 50
that six sdmirals are available at a
pinch Tor every capital ship.
This is not the worst OF tale
which Mr. Borah would have found
instructive and corrective. By 1888,
y no new construction is under
taken. The French feet will be re-
duced 20 three battlaships, three
cruisers and two submarines. Since
1914 France has built only one de-
strover and one submarine, while
the United States has built twenty
five capital ships. 2s6 destroyers and
100 submarines. The French feet Is
10000 tons smaller than il was IN
1914. Its present military efficiency
is hardly half what it was nine
years ago.
These facts make much Of Mr.
Borah's criticism ridiculous. They
also show how academic were the
grounds on which France objected at
the Washington conference to limi-
tations on submarine and light
cruiser strength. She has not yet
ratified the Washington treaties.
But that is not because she expects
TO exceed the limit set for her capi-
tai ships or contemplates creating a
formidable feet Of light cruisers and
submarines. Her protests at Wash
ington were miseonstrued. They
were formal and theoretical only,
since she cannot afford to seek high
rank again as a naval power and
has no intention Of doing so. Not
withstanding increased salaries and
costs Of maintenance, the sppropria-
tions for the French navy will soon
sink below the 1914 figures.
Mr.. Borah enjoys shuddering at
military bogies; but in the case Of
the French naval service al that he
is really shuddering at is an over
corpulent list of Gallo adniirals.
