How wisely do you choose
clothes? The answer lies in how
you feel about what is hanging in
your closet right now, when it is
too late to buy winter clothes and
too early to buy spring clothes. If
you can dress happily for every
occasion and go out feeling you
are looking your best, you are
probably a wise buyer.
But If you are dissatisfied with
everything you own and long to
embark on a buying spree, it's a
pretty good sign that you failed to
follow the guideposts to becoming
clothes on your last trip to the
fashion marts.

Negro Farmer Who Rose rom
Sharecropper To Owner Through
FILA Praised By Weekly

COY, Ala.-The relationship be-
tween successful farming and sue
cessful business enterprises was
emphasized recently by an Alaba-
ma white weekly newspaper in an
editorial praising the progress
made by Mallie Jackson, a former
sharecropper who is rising to full
ownership through aid from the
Farmers Home Administrator and
the Soil Conservation Service.
Seven years ago, Mr.. Jackson
was not only a penniless share
cropper, but also he owed a 500
debt. Today, however, he is buying
a 119-acre farm near here through
the supervised-credit program of
the Farmers Home, and his net
worth now totals more than $4,000.
When he made an inventory of
his farm recently, he counted 10
cows, five calves, 20 hogs, includ-
ing three brood sows, three horses,
two mules, a truck, a wagon, a
mechanical cotton buster, and sew
eral miscellaneous pillow tools. He
has sold II of his hogs and plans
to sell 10 more shortly. His family
of II is well supplied with pork,
ham, and bacon from the five hogs
he has already butchered for home
use.
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1950-01-07

Mr.. Jackson says that he has
been able to make progress largely
as result of assistance he has
received from the Farmers Home
and Soil Conservation Service. 81
am following the farming prac-
tees they recommend for my
land" says the former sharecrop-
per.
He has built terraces where
needed, plants kudzu and sericea
lespedeza as cover crops, and fol-
lows sound crop rotation system
to build up the fertility of his land.
For example, he follows cotton
with legumes and interplants corn
with crotalaria, using his full soil
building allotment from the Pro-
duction and Marketing Admins
tration. This has increased his
yield of cotton and corn markedly
and thereby further upped his in
come.
There were no fences around
Mr.. Jackson's farm when he hou-
ght it, but now the entire farm is
enclosed with stout wire. "You
have to have good fences to keep
your livestock in" he says. His
plans call for increased livestock
production. Two of his boys have
All livestock projects. One of
them won first place with a pig
last year at the Montgomery live
stock show.
Taking note of Mr.. Jackson's
farming success, the Wilcox Pro-
gressive Era, a Camden, Ala,
weekly, said in a recent editorial:
"The story about how Mallie
Jackson improved his farm and
his economic condition with the
help of the Soil Conservation Ser
vice and the Farmers Home Ad-
ADMINISTRATION is one you should
read.
at brings home to us a realiza-
ton of what golden opportunity
now exists for any farmer to avail
himself of the aid offered by our
agricultural agencies in Wilcox
county. We are all dependent on
the farmer here, in this agricul-
tural county, whatever our line of
business may be. When he pros
pers, the rest of us do; when he
has hard times, we do also.
at is easy to see that if every
farmer in Wilcox improved his
situation in proportion to the i'm
provement made by Mallie Jack
son since 1912, every merchant and
businessman in the county would
benefit in an astonishing measure

By JESSE L. MOMAN

Mary Wolfe Thomas, and her
little daughter, Dorothy Dean,
surprised husband and father,
Charlie Thomas, by coming up
from Jackson on the City of New
Orleans for the holidays.
We saw Newman and Velma
Ford, formerly of the Jackson
town, playing Santa to their lit
tie daughter Xmas eve night.
We attended a swell affair
given by Brother Hood of Sleep
ing Car Porters. The Jackson
town was well represented. Jesse
(Bloaty) Anderson and his lovely
intended wife, Caesar, and Flossie
Bowman, Jr., R. Jackson and his
wife, and Jack (The Barber)
Louisville. Big Jack was lighted
up like a Parish Street Christmas
tree.
We saw many of the good people
from the "Sippi' country boarding
the trains going home for the
holidays. Stazia Freeman was
one of the happy travellers as she
was heading for McComb.
1949 is now history, and many
years from now, along with other
years of this decade it will be re-
ferred to as the good old days"
This is simply sentiment of people
who live from one transition to
another.
Aside from our traditional
New Years resolutions, we owe it
to ourselves, our country, our
loved ones, to rededicate our de-
termination to improve our lot eco
nomically, morally, and education
billy.
One of our good friends gave
us a fair idea of what his New
Years resolution would be: 81

taker will be sorry when | die"
Brother, that's living and we adj
mire your spirit.

Chickasaw County, Mississippi,
who is reported to have "hogged
the road" and of not moving his
wagon over fast enough to permit
a group of white men, riding in a
motor car, to pass. He was beat
end to death.
The third victim was Hollis
Rifles, 53-year-old prosperous Ne
gro landowner of near cambridge,
Decatur County, Georgia, found
dead with a. number of bullet holes
in his body after an argument
with group of white men, who
had been fishing in his pond with
out permission. 1t was reported
that sometime previously Riles'
home had been riddled with buck
shots fired from an automobile.
The states in which the lynch
ings occurred and the number in
each state are as follows: Geor-
gia, 2; Mississippi, 1.
Punishment of Lynchers. Two
men jailed in connection with the
lynching of Caleb Hill, Jr., were
later freed for lack of sufficient
evidence to bring them to trial.
Lynchings Prevented. In at
least IA instances, lynchings were
prevented-4 in the north and 10
in the south. One person escaped
grom group of men bent on
lynching him by jumping into a
river: in the ID other instances,
officers of the law gave ,protec-
ton. A total of at least IL per-
sons were thus saved from mob
violence. Of these, G were white
persons and IL were Negroes.
Although there are three clear
cut cases of lynching reported for
l949 according to criteria now
used, attention should be called
to other killings which. according
to all intent and purpose. would
seem to fall into this category.
These include murders reported
as being committed by less than
three persons; killings by specially
deputized posses, who in some in
stances appear to be composed Of
irresponsible persons bent not on
upholding legal institutions but on
vengeance; prisoners meeting vio-
lent death in jails after confine-
ment; and other cases of police
brutality.
