Flat Increase In Ceilings Allowed
Cotton Ginners

Flat Increase In Ceilings Allowed
Cotton Ginners
Cotton ginners are now permit
ted to increase their ceiling prices
for ginning; wrapping and bal
ing services by a flat six percent
over their 1850 charges, Thomas
B. Terry Director Of the Office of
Price Sterilization for Mississippi,
said today.
That flat six percent increase is
allowed over their 1850 rates,
OPS said, to offset cost increases
since last year. The increase is
allowed in Supplemental Regula-
ton 2, Ceiling Price Regulation
"a, and becomes effective Septem-
Der LIST.
Cotton ginners must report their
new prices to the District OPS
Office at Jackson within ten DAYS
after the increases are first put
into effect.
The OPS Director explained that
the flat increase was allowed be-
cause of the increase in direct
labor cost and because of the in
creased cost of bagging and ties.
Data submitted to OPS indicates
that cotton ginners generally
make commitments in early spring
when their costs and cost increases
are generally uniform.

fruits, berries, vegetables and
vegetable juices.
The vegetable amendment, CPR
SIS, places ceilings on canned lima
beans, snap beans, beets, sweet
corn, tomatoes and tomato juice.
The fruits and berries amendment,
CPR Sc, sets the prices on cam
ed fruit or berry nectars, berries,
plums, prunes, fresh figs, grapes,
freestone peaches and pears.
The ceiling prices, which are
effective this month, will mean
higher prices in some instances,
lower in other cases, but no SUD
stantial overall change in retail
prices. the District OPS Office
explained.

NOn-Agricultural Employment
At 81 Peak During july

Non-agriculturaI employment in
Mississippi reached a peak for the
year during July, according to the
Mississippi Employment Security
Commission. The total employment
was increased still further by the
large number of workers employed
in seasonal agricultural work dur
ing that month. The commission
forecast a further increase in total
employment as soon as the cotton
harvest gets underway. Non-agri-
cultural employment should in
crease considerably since a large
number of workers will be employ
ed by cotton gins and congresses,
and cotton seed oil mills, the COM
mission added.

ing sands at much greater depth
than in other states, the industry
has pushed steadily ahead. Today
there are nearly 100 wells in the
46 producing fields. AS Of June,
1851, the cumulative production
from all the fields amounted to
302, 589,195 barrels. The original
field in Yazoo County, Tinsley, had
produced 120,273,795 barrels. In
addition to the millions of dollars
paid to Mississippi landowners in
the form of royalties and lease
payments, the state and counties
have realized several million dol
lars in additional tax revenue.
Winter Grazing Tests Profitable
Four groups of steer calves were
fattened on winter pastures at the
North Mississippi Branch Expert
ment Station at Holly Springs last
winter. A fifth group was fatten-
ed on a full feed lot ration for
comparison with the winter graz
ing group. Though satisfactory
gains were made, considering the
severity Of the winter, the profits
are due in part to the spread in
the price paid for the calves in the
fall, and the price received for
them in the spring." Superinten-
dent Crockett said. Nevertheless,

fattening spring-dropped beef-type

The truth was simply that she

it? Listen to this" As he raised
the book to read aloud she could
see the title: How To Raise

by Rudolph Snork.
What do we mean when we
speak of the Superior Child?'
Art read. DO we mean mere
physical superiority? No. though
good health is most important.
Do we mean mere mental supe-
riority? No, though intelligence
is fine quality. What we really
mean by the Superior Child is the
child with a sound emotional out
look. a healthy psyche, robust
and natural personality. We mean.
in short, a child who is perfectly

years ago June %, 1915:
Time speeds on, six years have passed
Since death its gloom and shadows
cast
Within our home where all was bright
God took from us a shining light.
We miss you, Mother and always will
Your vacant place there no one can
For while we mourn you in vain
our loss is your eternal gain.
Deep in our hearts there's a picture
OF loved one gone to rest,
In memory's frame we shall keep Il
Because she was one of the best
our nerves are almost shattered
Our hearts are broken, too,
But some sweet day we will see again
Your smiling face, 'tis true.
Your pleasant way and smiling face
Are pleasure to recall:
You had a friendly word for each
And died beloved by all.
