The only thing the matter with the foregoing article is the fact that the Standard Oil Company has not. as yet, struck oil in the Cold Bay district in Alaska. but it is as cer- tain as anything can be that it will, eventually, penetrate the oil-bering sands and bring in production. The World is likewise generous with it's figures. An oil claim con- tains approximately 2,560 acres, in- stead of 25,660 acres. Also instead of there being 100000 claims loca- ted. as stated. there may be possibly two hundred locations. On the bas- is of the Worlds figures, the Cold Bay oil fields would approximate over five billion acres, or about eight times as much as the total acreage of the territory of Alaska, big as it is.

DAIRY COW LEADS RACE

T can pay my fine for bootleg ging just as soon as I sell my cow" said a young man recently to Judge Williams in the federal court for the eastern district of Oklahoma.
 You sell that COW and I will send you to jail for six months" replied the judge. Keep the COW and drink it's milk instead of corn whiskey. That COW is worth more than all the whiskey in Johnston county"

NOTED JEW ON PROHIBITION
Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, Free Syna
 gogue, New York.


 For many years I have been in fa- vor of prohibition. l believed before it was enacted into a law that it would work out beneSicently in the life of America. I believe that pro- hibition is doing much of what it's advocates hoped for it and from it. It is making for health. It makes thrift more easily possible. It makes for efficiency and it is sure to pro- yoke cleaner, decenter, finer home life.
 Having said all this, must add that l can think of nothing more un- fair and unjust than all this outcry about the evil effects os non-enforce- ment. Much as deplore-and there is much to deplore-the present par tial, rather than impartial enforce ment of the prohibition laws, the evils that now obtain are perhaps nothing more than an inevitable to- ken of the transition stage from the era of alcohol to the era of prohibit tion of its use. The ultimate values of prohibition are not to be judged by five or ten years of the transition al stage.
 The important thing is that, al- though those who have all their lives used alcohol, may persist in the use thereof, and some foolish young men and women indulge therein who are moved to do so by a spirit of fool hardness, the masses of the young people of America are being reared without the use and without acquir- ing the hurtful habit of alcohol.
 have believed in prohibition and l believe in it still. I wish we might have had from the very beginning a decenter, fairer. fuller trial thereof. But one thing is certain, that the prohibition laws ought not to be re- pealed. and that they will not be re- pealed. They are in the interest of America and of Americas future.

SUGAR CANE AND
POTATO DISEASES
FOUND IN STATE

A. & NJ. College, Miss, Jan. B
The recent finding of two new plant
diseases in Mississippi has just been
reported by ID. c. Neal, Plant Patho-
logist of the State Plant Board and
Mississippi Experiment Station.
Soil Rot of sweet potatoes, rather
serious disease in New Jersey, Mary
land, and Delaware, was discovered
i'm Lee County. This disease causes
pits or peck marks on the surface
of the potatoes, makig them ill-shap-
ed and unmarketable. 1t spreads
very slowly in the soil, and unless
transferred in other ways, may re-
quire long time to become serious
in Mississippi.
Foot Rot of sugar cane was report
ed on farm near Embry, in Webster
County. This disease is prevalent
in many parts of Louisiana, but has
never been found in Mississippi be-
fore. About 10 per cent of the plants
were infected in the field examined,
though it frequently causes greater
loss in Louisiana. Both seed cane
and the growing stalks are attacked.
Buds or eyes on seed cane are
often killed or the young plants die
after sprouting.
Both these diseases are being in
vestigated by the Plant Board and
measures will be considered for con-
trolling them and preventing their
spread to other farms.

The wool from South Mississippi
is said to class very fine, as the
sheep have the open range, noted
for its fertility, abundantly watered
by the purest streams and practically
free from cookie burrs. Before the
DAYS of railroads in South Missis-

year, both for sheep and cattle. In

the designation as a badge, not only
of thrift, but of honor.
Visitors to the southern section
of the state say that not only more
sheep, but better sheep and better
cattle. as well as better hogs have
taken the place of those of former
days.

likely that the rate of consumption
prevailing during the last five

However, the financial and eco
nomic conditions in Europe are very
unsettled and should not be over
looked i'm considering the 1923 cotton
market as America needs European
markets for its raw cotton and TO a
lesser degree for its cotton goods.
"At present there seems to be
some inclination among cotton pro-
ducers to increase the cotton acre
age during 1928 and to put forth
special efforts in combating the Doll
weevil and other insect pests. No
doubt the relatively high prices OF
cotton will stimulate such efforts.
The feeling seems TO be more cot
ION for clothes and less for the boil
weevil.
-sThe beginning of the new year
found the cotton growers in the
United States in much better fl

considerably and it was reported
more land would have been devoted
TO cotton mt the beginning OF the
planting season had it not been for
the unfavorable planting. The con
-tinuation of rains was also respons-
ible for the abandonment later OF
a considerable area.
THE crops of both 1927 and 1872
though small. were of relatively
high grade cotton, due principally TO
the favorable weather during the
picking and the absence of killing
frosts until late in the year"
