The 1860 Conservation Reserve
Program contains special incentives
for farmers to place all their eligi-
BILE land in the program of at least
five years and a priority system for
accepting conservation reserve con-
tract applications. Eligible land, in
general, is cropland which is regu-
larly used for cultivated crops or
tame hay.
AS in former years, there will be
two types of payments under the
program = a cost-share payment for
carrying out a conservation prac-
tice on the reserved land and annual
rental payments during the 3 to 10
year life of the contract.
Forms for farmers to use in re-
|questing rate determinations for
their land will be available from
IASC offices about the middle of
August. The period for filing such
requests will be August "a to Sep
TENDER 10, 1859.

Idle Acres Can Be
Used For Profit

The Yuletide thrill of decorating
a Christmas tree, a custom which
has thrilled the hearts of millions
for more than 400 years, can pos
sibly provide a thriving industry
for Mississippians. Growing trees
for Christmas decorations could be
big business with a minimum of
work. The most suitable tree would
be the Arizona cypress, a fast
growing evergreen with strong limbs
to support ornamentals. From one
acre of land unsuitable for cult
vable crops, a farmer could grow
1000 trees in four years, selling
them on the market for 81, 900. The
cost would be approximately S225.
Approximately 500, 900 trees are
used in Mississippi annually,

The Old
South
By Mrs. j.. w. Burwell

Here it seems well to say that the
purpose of this article is not so
much to entertain but to give a
brief history of a pre-Civil War
town. This town saw the height of
prosperity before it suffered its
downfall. Yet most of the details
are as completely lost to the pre-
sent generation as if it had never
existed.
In the county in which we live
are some of the oldest settlements
OF the state. In them one finds val
liable historic information relating
70 county. State, and national af-
fairs. A few of the ghost towns of
Holmes County were Vernon Mont
gomery, G~eorgeville, Richland,
and Old Rankin. All but Richland
are now extinct. Rankin was one of
the most important. Located about
flve miles from Tchula near where
Howard stands to day, Rankin was
rounded some time before 1929 and
was the hide out for all river men,
robbers, and gamblers of the South.
AT that time Tchula Lake, being
a tributary of the Yazoo River, was
used by the delta planters to ship
their cotton and other products.
The boat landing was near the
place where Tchula now stands.
The captains and the sailors of
The boats had no place in which to
spend their Sundays and other lei
sure days in drunken carousing;
therefore, they began to think of
building a town. At that time prac-
tlcally all land near Tchula Lake
was under water some season of
the year if not all the time.
Because of this they had to plan
the town on higher ground and they
:alled it Rankin, 1t was the first
town built in this section of the
state,
Among the most notorious of the
laWless men who gathered there
was the bandit, John T. Murrell,
and his gang; a man known South
wide as the most crafty and pitt
less robber of any period in Miss.
history. There was said to be a
cave at Rankin where stolen loot
was buried. Their chief prey was
fine horses and if they by chance
met a wealthy man on a lonely
country road he never reached
home,
Old Rankin was the first county
seat of Holmes county and here
Ohio Beall, in the capacity of JUS
tice of the Peace, held the first
court under the protection of guns.
With the coming of the Civil War
Rankin began to decline, leaving
one more forgotten and abandoned
place where a thriving town once
stood.

WEATHER
OUTLOOK

The outlook for the Mississippi
Delta for mid-August through mid
September calls for somewhat
warmer and drier than normal.
Temperatures will average in the
low COS in the afternoons and near
70 at night. Rainfall will total 2
to 3 inches in most sections: How
ever, there will be a good deal of
variation over the area.
Rather dry high pressure in the
upper layers of the atmosphere over
the southeastern states is expected
to dominate the mid-South's wea-
Their during the next 80 days.

Growth Of Pine In
State Exceeds CUTTING

The timber industry in Missis-
sippi is a major asset. Sixty years
ago, it was predicted that by 1890
we would have no timber, but the
tide has changed. Today, the growth
of southern pine greatly exceeds
the cutting, These statements are
significant and their hope and
meaning can be studied.
