Sports Writer Names
Bill Schneider Among
Great Rebel Sturs

Coach Bill Schneider, former
Ole Miss Rebel football star,
hasn't been forgotten by the
sports writers. David Bloom, in
his column in the Sunday Com
mercial Appeal, recalls the 1889
gridiron classic between Ole Miss
and State, when the Rebs had
Bill Schneider and Winky Au-
trey, two ebulient spirits who en-
livened every football game" The
State Maroons won that game,
but they "had to do it the hard
way" says Bloom, "since Schnel-
Ter - an expert at swiping the
ball - intercepted a johnson pass
and made the first score for Ole
Miss" In 1889, Bloom recalls, Ole
Miss was equipped with Hapes
and Hovious, Aubrey and Hazel,
and SCHNEIDER, the guy who in
tercepted a pass against Arkan-
sas, thumhed his nose as he ran
for a touchdown and precipitated
a battle in Memphis that will scar
cely be forgotten for some years"

Best Lond Use In Holmes County

wou,d Won be interested in knowing just what light
@zpztsi in soil conservation regard ID holmes .md county ranat nros mnu
gYEuDWna as one OF MISSISSIPPI 8 largest anu -
zzdpwugressive counties?
Their findings may astound you-but personally W
mot doubt them at all.
briefly put the Soil Conservation says:
We have approximately 489, 900 acres in Holmes coun-
II. Approximately $1,000 acres of this is taken up IN roads
1Tvatrd continuously. But $1,000 acres should be in pas.
Ame and 10000 acres in trees.
The Delta
There m approximately 10000 acres IN the Deita'
ave. towns, and roads. About $1,000 acres OF this can be
rug cropped continuously, $4,000 acre should be row cropped
half of the time and in grasses and legumes one nan Oh
the time, 10000 acres should be in grasses and legumes ana
$4,000 acres should be in woods.
The Hill Section
There are approximately 1926, 900 acres in the hill
section of Holmes county. Of this 114,O00 acres is in roads,
streams, and towns. There are approximately $4,000 acres
I'm the southeast corner of the County from Ebenezer run
ming northeastward near Franklin and back east to High
way 81 north of Goodman and a strip north along Highway
81 across the County that is best adapted to grasses and
1egHmes. Of this about 10000 acres of the toughest should
be in trees, and the remaining $4,000 acres should be in
grasses and legumes. However, about $4,000 acres of this
can ne successfully row cropped If worked into a rotation
with grasses and legumes. 1t should be in row crops only
two years out of six.
There are approximately 100, 600 acres in a strip from
the south side of the County by Lexington to Acona that
rs best adapted to grasses and legumes and trees. OF this
approximately $4,000 acres should be in grasses and le-
guInes. 10000 acres in trees, and $4,000 acres in rotated row
crops
Approximately $4,000 acres located in the northeast
~ronuerof the County, a strip across the County east of High
rEzy 61 along the Big Black River and a strip across the
eCoanfy along the bluffs Just east of the Delta area that is
Ebzt adapted to trees. Of This $4,000 acres should be in
trees. 10000 acres in grasses and legumes, and 10000 acres
can De successfully row cropped If properly rotated.
From the above we have determined from the stand
point of good land use there should be approximately 1877
500 acres in row crops, ITO, 900 acres in grasses and Iegumes,
for pasture and hay, and 1861 900 acres should be kept in
~tresS.This leaves about $1,000 acres which is in towns, roads,
streams. and lakes.
Common sense tells us that only when every acre of
4ssO1 In Holmes county is put to the use for which it is best
adapted viii our county realize its ultimate possibilities.

Grow Pine Trees

There are approximately 10000 acres of land in
Holmes county which should be devoted to growing trees
and nothing else. This seems like a lot of acreage to be put
m trees out of a total of about 489, 900 acres in the whole
rounty. But our land use map indicates the best purpose to
which each acre of land in the county should be put-and
EruRlng trees should be a major industry in Holmes coun-
sy-
That our people are rapidly becoming more aware OF
ehTx fact is evident. In 1850 Holmes county landowners
planted $1,000 pine seedlings. During 1851 they will plant
I,1E@,O00 or more.
MI. Landowner, if you have land that is not suitable
far cultivation on pasture, do not let it go to waste plant
10 I'm pine trees. You may not live to receive the cash bene-
fits from it-but your children or grandchildren will.
And you will have an awful lot of fun watching them
Grsw as long as you live. aM
