any relief can be granted the American
farmer In the form of reduced freight
rates on grain and grain products.
Arguments were completed late yes

Of grain rates instituted under the pro-

the commission TO give agricultural
roduc4S the lowest possible lawful
rates consistent with an adequate trans

Swinney Completes
Plans Electric Gin
On Fair Grounds

Lexington will soon add modern gin
plant, operated by electric power, cap
able of turning out bale of cotton ev-
cry IS minutes, according to plans an
nounced by A. E. Swinney, who is having
the plant built on his fair ground prop
erty East of the city.
The new structure will be an all steel
Hi-speed Murray gin, equipped with
pneumatic cleaners, condensers dust
flues, seed blowers, elevators and all
of the latest model machinery for de-
pendable and satisfactory turnout of the
cotton crops demands.
A concrete foundation has been COM
pleted. and all material for the building
of the housing that will contain the gin
machinery, is being placed on the plot
| and the whole structure being made
| ready for the equipment that has been
shipped from the factory.
The new industry will be designed
for the handling of both short and staple
cotton, and scales for the weighing OF
!, trucks and wagons, will also be part
of the gin equipment, cotton seed form
| ing part of the business of the new
concern that will have storage and ware
house facilities, with shipping connec-
tions of the railroad adjoining the prop
erty.
Mr.. Swinney has selected the manager
of the new gin, also the colored help
that will have charge of the machinery,
all having many years experience in
ginning demands locally and at other
| places. He plans to have them attend a
school of instruction at Memphis in
August, where they will receive first
hand information from the factory rela-
tive to efficient operation of this cleo
trio type gin, as the one he is now in
stalling on his property.
Direct motor power of 100 norse-pow-
er will be used in driving the gin, that
will utilize the high power line that
passes the fair ground property of Mr..
Swlnney. The new plant will be ready
to operate within the next go days.

Beall Planning Fine
Feed Mill Locally
For Holmes Farmers

George S. Beall, Jr., of the Lexing-
ton Gin and Trading Co., continues to
lend his efforts towards a perfection of
feed mill that will be credit to this
section of Mississippi and has engaged
the services of two of the best engineers
of Memphis and Owensboro, that are
submitting designs that will service to
the utmost in operation and finished
product.
In planning feed MILL Mr.. Beall
states that he has made trips all over
the state inspecting different units, not
ing the advantages of each plant and
disearding the factors that have proven
unworthy in practical operation and ac-
cepting the principles that have proven
worthy.
Some mills Mr.. Beall continued offer
an unusual advantage in one respect and
are unable to handle a product in an
other. combination of the good fea
lures of all have been carefully eata
| logued and submitted to the engineer
| who will embrace a plant that will no
| be surpassed anywhere.
In gathering the data for the feet
mill Mr.. Beall has not overlooked the
pfouuctS Ga tnS FARMER and has made {
survey that will include balanced ra.
tion of home grown feed, giving the
planter every advantage of his feed as
well as grinding, mixing and delivering
feed that fills every demand and at 3
saving that reduces the farm feed bill
almost one-half in cost. Analysis OF
various feed experts have also been not
ed and these will be carefully followed
at all times in giving the farmer the ut
most in food values of his products. Ii
this manner a combination of home
grown feeds can be blended in fina
product relieving the farmer of grow
ing all ingredients. One planter ma,
have surplus of one which can be dis
posed of to replace a needed part of an
other order, this giving all chance te
obtain the best and at the same time af
ford an all round market for all. As
long as feedstuffs are grown, the mil
can utilize this surplus of any farm ir
supplying a deficiency of another farm
This affords saving to the farmer anc
profit on his surplus supplies by 6
