work up and thus uphold your repu-
tation.
There are great mutterings around
Philadelphia, which seem to say that
Deputy Mary E. Freeman is very
restless, and that we may expect
most any day to learn that this dep
uty among deputies has spoken a
number Of Folds into existence.
Plans are gradually beng lald for
our annual excursion, which will go
to Bay Shore on the 18th of July.
This excursion promises to be the
biggest in the history of our Order.
The second Sunday in June will be
the red letter day for the Shepherds
of Richmond and vicinity. The an
nnal sermon will be preached on this
date at Mosby Memorial Baptist
Church. On this date the Shepherds
and the public will see what they
have never seen in Richmond before.
A big mass meeting of the Folds
of the West End will be held on the
fifth Sunday in April at the Fifth
Baptist Church. Rev. A. D. DAILY
pastor. Every member of the Order
in Richmond is asked to attend this
meeting, especially the members of
the Folds of the West End. A pa
rade through some of the principal
streets of this section will precede
the program.
Welfare Department Honor Roll
continues. Philadelphia Zion Trav-
eler's Fold pushed Clark's Invincible
Fold in second place and now holds
for itself the honor of having re-
ported the largest amount of any
Fold to the Welfare Department.
Many congratulations, Philadelphia
Zion Travellers, for this wonderful
feat, but please bear in mind that
you have got to work to keep your
place. At the present time you hold
first place; Clark's Invincible, second
place, and st. Elizabeth, third place.
Who will have the first place next
week?
Among the one hundred percent
ers we have had the following Folds
to take their places: Liberty, Pansy,
Juvenile. We extend our sincere ap-
probation to Mrs. l.. ]. Morgan, Vice
Grand Shepherd; S. ]. Ellis and their
loyal corps of members for these
splendid reports. 1t is distinguished
honor for a Fold to say that all of
our members contributed to the We'll
fare Department.

ZOGU JHTS ALBANIAN FIANCEE
IN FAVOR OF ROYAL PRINCESS
Kings Decision Leaves Land
owners Daughter Heart
Broken.
Reasons of State Cause
Breaking of Six-Year
Engagement.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TIRANA, Albania, November 81
King zogu is understood to have broken
his troth to the daughter of wealthy
landowner and decided that he must
have a princess of royal blood to share
his throne.
zogu, who was proclaimed King on
September /, had been engaged for six
years to Leila, the 23-year daughter
of Shevket Bey Viltaz, a wealthy land
owner of Elbasson. He is now under
stood to have written her, saying that
he deeply loves her. but that reasons
of state have compelled him reluctantly
and sorrowfully to give up the idea Of
their marriage.
Leila is reported to be nearly heart
broken and unreconciled to her fate.
She is quoted as saying that she can
never love any man except the tall,
handsome 34-year-old King.
The reported breaking of Zogu'S troth
has again stirred up discussions as to
whom he will choose to share his
throne. Moslem subjects of zogu re-
fuse to believe that there is any pos
Sibility of Princess Giovanni of Italy
becoming their Queen, since she prob
ably would not be willing to abandon
the Christian faith, nor Zogu his devout
adherence to MohammedaniSm.
When Zogu first announced his plans
for turning the republic of Albania into
a kingdom there was rumor that he
intended to marry a daughter of King
Fuad of Egypt. This possibility is now
being discussed again.

pion steer, around which centers the
chief interest of the show. Other WIN
ners are of Importance chiefly to fan
Eiers of their breed, but the prize beef
steer may be of any breed. Last year
the champion was California Stamp,
1,070-pound steer owned by the Uni
yersity of California. He was a cross
bred Shorthorn-AnguS and 425 days old.
He was sold for $2.35 pound. In 1925
the champion steer brought $3.50 a

the championship.

tion again this year. A wool show, the

burden Endorses Farm
Buying Through The
Medium Cows, Cotton

Diversification of farm practice, US
ing cows and cotton as principal enter
prises, will enable the ambitious far
mer of small means to earn comfor-
table living, acquire pleasant home
and establish a prosperous business, ac-
cording to w. X. burden, vice president
of the Merchants & Farmers Bank &
Trust Co., one of the leading bankers
and business men of this section.
Mr.. burdens position is one requir-
ing intimate knowledge of the financial
standing Of the banks customers, and
his endorsement of dairying and general
live stock farming as a part Of sound
agricultural program, carries unusual
weight with the farmers of Holmes and
adjoining counties.
Continuing Mr.. burden cites as illus
trating the possibilities Of diversified
ton, the example Of 8. ]. Algood, who
| five years ago purchased a 400-acre
farm, 8 miles east of Yazoo City. This
farm was part Of the Hillary E. White
estate, of which Mr.. burden was admin
istrator. Mr.. Algood had at that time
| . sanky sns6fNeentss few hogs and some
tchickens. He had NO money with which
to rnakesa payment ON the property and
he had family dependent ON him for
support.
Mr.. Algood, during the past five years,
has made good living for his family,
made better his farm and home, and has
increased and improved his livestock
holdings. He now has 101 head of cat
tie, and between 40 and so hogs, besides
workstock and poultry. He is milking
30 cows, and for one of these, a high
grade Guernsney, he has been offered
$4,000. Mr.. Algood now feels that he
is in position to apply annually on the
payment for the farm, the proceeds
from the sale of 20 head of CATTLE. Mr..
burden, with the conservation Of wide
experience, estimates these payments on
the basis of Is head with present val
ues of both beef and dairy cattle, Mr..
Algood is finding liquidation of his in
debtedness good business at this time.
The production of feed and the i'm
provement of his stock have been defi
mite policies consistently pursued by Mr..
Algood. Corn, sorghum, soy beans and
oats are the principal feed crops which
he grows. Further Mr.. Algood is good
judge OF dairy cattle, according to Mr..
burden. He has been breeding Guernseys
and has been finding ready sale for
his products on the basis of superior
merit.
Mr.. Algood has, besides his provision
tor feed, 26 acres in cotton. With him
it is cash crop, the per-acre yield of

Gov. BilbO Was
Honor Guest Friday
Lex. Rotary Club

The Lexington Rotary Club had as
its honor guest Friday, Governor Theo-
dore G.. Bilbo, upon invitation OF Ko-
tartan Stewart Watson, who was the
main speaker on a program that held
the attention of every member and
guest present.
President Henry Johnson, the out
going official Of the Club, in few well
chosen words, stated that this was his
last day as president, and that he was
turning over the office to President
elect Lester Barr, but owing to his abb
sence in Rochester, Minnesota, Vice-
president-elect p. p. Lindholm, would
take charge under the new regime, and
in taking over the official capacity
Mr.. Lindholm in nice manner pre-
sented Theorode 6. Bilbo, governor Of
Mississippi, who was told to choose
any subject he saw tit sd to allow
himself as much time as he desired.
The Governor was in fine spirit and
as his talk progressed, his earnestness
and appeal was never more paramount.
He reviewed the accompliehments Of the
s.s g .sssi.. sass e
the people Of Mississippi. He said in
regard to proposed lekislation that had
elected him as the peoples choice, that
he was going to leave nothing undone,
in fact he had just started. He called
attention to the fact that the old Con-
federates were now receiving $1.00
day, that an eight-month school had
been accomplished, that the little van
ity cases had been removed from the
automobile, that a tick eradication bill
had been instituted that would free the
tick-infested areas, favorable incorpora-
tion laws had been written inviting OUT
side capital and protecting home cor
porations, 81 900, 100000 had been voted
to build greater University Of Missis-
sippi that would compare with any in
the South, an agricultural service de-
partment had been established to help
and create a marketing bureau to pre-
vent price-cutting and aid the farmer
in disposing of his products.
After dealing briefly with the fore-
going subjects, Governor Bilbo directed
his attention to the problems that he
said confronted the state. He called
attention to the revenue, which at the
time of converting the legislature
showed a deficit of between two and
three million dollars. He said that he
