OUTLOOK GOOD FOR STATE
WITH BOOMING NJ

Gov. Ross R. Barnett, in his opening
address to the joint session of the legisla-
ture, pointed u that the state has
mounted to a higher and sounder econo-
mic position than we have ever before
known. Backing this statement up, he
noted that the great promise for a
brighter future is evidenced by the fact
that all areas of our economic activity
are on the increase and support an Opt
mistic outlook for Mississippi's future.
For example, the governor said that
employment in business and industry in
October and November reached all-time
highs. In November there was a total of
503,834 people at work. This was 24,128
more jobs than a year ago and an all
time high record for Mississippi.
Our present industrial program is
building a giant reservoir of new Job OPP
p%ortunities. Since January of 1860, more
than 10000 new lob opportunities have
been made available to our people
through new and expanded industries.
All of these do not open up on a given
date but provide hundreds of new Jobs
almost every month. More people work
ing mean more pay checks. More pay
checks mean more buying power, and
more buying power means that power

FARMERS PLAY BIG ROLE

(Reprinted from the Jackson Daily News,
The basic place of agriculture in the
nations life-and economy is revealed in
a recent report by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture. American agriculture,
claims USDA, has made more progress
during the past so years than in all the
prior years of our history.
The foundation for continuing agri-
cultural advances is research, hard work
and the resourcefulness and ingenuity of
our farmers.
Research by government and industry
is constantly improving plants and anil
mails, providing better management of
soil and water, finding new uses for farm
products, d~evising new and better meth
DDS of marketing, Transporting, storing
and merchandising farm products. Edu-
cational agencies and news media quick
ly carry this information to farmers.
Farming is the nations biggest single
industry. Farming, says USDA, employs
~ million w~orkers-more than the COM
bined employment in transportation,
public utilities, the steel industry and the
automobile industry.
American farmers have nearly 200 bill
lion dollars invested in land, buildings,
machinery and livestock. Agriculture has
an average investment at 81, 300 for each
Holmes County herald., 1962-01-18

farm worker, as compared with $4,000
for each worker in manufacturing in
dustry.
The nations 100000 individual far
mers are big buyers of the products of
industry. USA farmers spend SIS to $40
billion a year for goods and services to
produce crops and livestock; another
SIS billion a year for the same things
city people buy-food, clothing, drugs,
furniture, electrical power, appliances,
and other products and services.
Agriculture furnishes raw materials
for industry and creates Jobs for city
workers. Four out of every ten Jobs in
private employment are related to agri-
culture. Ten million people have Jobs
storing, Transporting, processing, and
merchandising farm products. Six million
people hayv jobs providing supplies far
merS use.
Farmers produce a super-abundance of
food and fiber for all Americans and pile
up SURPRISES for huge exports to foreign
countries. Agriculture helps to keep the
dollar sound.
Agriculture is constantly improving.
Farmers are continually advancing. We
salute them for the good job they are do
ing.

z. Because it lowers costs it is advan-
tageous to both the advertiser and the
customer.
;. Lower costs are always reflected in
lower prices. Every advertiser wants t
be able to sell comparatively and profit
able at a lower price. Every customer
wants to buy quality at a lower price.
4. Advertising IS useful in lowering
other costs, too Advertising can lower
financing costs. 1t can lower the cost of

full stimulant is being applied in every
area of u economy. We see the results
on every hand = more money in circu-
lation."
In addition, bank deposits and bank
resources, representing a major segment
of the growing wealth of our people,
are at ar all-time high. The states bust
ness level has reached a new high, while
the agricultural economy, an important
segment of our total income, has been
enriched by an abundant harvest of cot
ton, corn, soybeans and rice. Livestock,
a recent booster of the states economy,
is also expanding and beginning to pay
real dividends.
We agree with Gov. Barnett in his OBJ
servations. Just as is the case with the
state as a whole, Holmes County is be-
ginning to show marked signs of greater
economic prosperity. Some of the in
duStries presently located in the county
are engaged in expansion programs there
by evidencing faith in the area. Other
industries are known to be eyeing the To-
cal municipalities as possible sites for
future plant location. Indeed, 1862 NAV
be a year that will go down as the most
dynamic ever for Mississippi and Holmes
COuntv.

ADVERTISING DOES A

Naturally, those connected with the
mass media contend that every merchant
and business, if prosperity is to follow,
should carry on a planned advertising
program. Representatives of the media
point to the merchants who have seen fit
to advertise, as examples of the benefits of
such action.
u S. News and World Report as part
of a promotion program has listed adj
vantages of advertising. They include:

pose and achieves one ultimate result =

Editor of the Advertiser from

Advertiser operation, that the
people of Holmes County
needed and deserved a news
paper that could truly re-
present the people of the coun-
ty as a whole. My opinion has
not changed.
jack, l have nothing to
gain : or to lose, by writing
this letter, which you have my
permission to publish. Part of
my heart will always remain
with the Herald, my friends
and relatives in my native
Holmes County, but the pre-
sent is very bright for me here
in Memphis and the future
looks even brighter.
When I was Editor of the
Herald l considered Mrs.
Smiths remarks and attacks
on me as a competitor trying
to stay in business, but when
/ have been gone for more
than a year and she still pub
fishes falsehoods about me
then | consider it a slanderous
attack on my character.
"The truth will prevail and
