"to keep alive the spirit of
liberty"
Mr.. McMorrough
Mr.. White then paid tribute
% Mr.. Marlborough for whom
the new $133,000 library is
named.
he said Mr.. Marlborough
came to Goodman in 1925 as a
young school teacher. Later
he went to the University of
Mississippi where he finished
in law. In 1898 he became
president of the Board o
Trustees of the school.
HE brought to this posi-
ton a great background for
this work." Mr.. White con-
tinued, land is late wife.
Cora Marlborough shared his
interest IN and affection for
this school. This devotion has
continued until this day with
their daughter, Mrs. Stanley
Allen and Mr.. Allen close
ly identified with the school,"
Mr.. White said he wished
to express his personal
thanks and appreciation for
The honor paid him in allow
ng him to be on the program.
"This is a great honor for
me-" he said, because my
father and Mr.. Marlborough
were schoolmates and his son,
G. H. Marlborough, Jr., is one
of my best friends"
Then turning to Mr.. Nc
Morrough, MIR. White said,
Mr.. Nc, this is a great honor
for me to unveil your picture
which will hang in the magni-
ficent new library. You
have been a great blessing
and a great joy. We love you
and thank you for your patri-
otto work"
Marlborough Reply
Mr.. Marlborough, whose
dry wit has made him a great
favorite with a large circle
of friends, rose and said:
We'll, now, if l met the real
G. H. Marlborough coming
down the road, / never would
recognize him."
Then he expressed his deep
appreciation for the honor:
Nov l want to say to the
young people - this library
is not for me It's for you and
we hope you use it. Those
young people out in California
who demonstrated, now if
they had been in a library
they'd never have done what
they did. Usually folks who
study in Libraries are not that
kind of people"
Mr.. Marlborough then thank
ed the board for the high
honor paid him in naming the
building for him.

Attorney Thornton, intro

He said he believes at least

have been a credit to their
own county and Holmes, he
said.
Mr.. Thornton emphasized
the vital role education has
played in the destiny of our

dom.
Abraham Lincoln is sup

Governors Address
Governor Barnett made an
interesting and informative
talk on industrial Progress
in Mississippi"
He began by saying it was
good to be in Lexington again
and congratulated the people
of Holmes County on the
great progress they are max
ing. He also thanked those
present for turning aside from
everyday duties to attend Ills
event.
Estate Welfare Department
offers a different contribution
all over county and state
It's workers come in contact
with grass root people of
Mississippi more than any
other group of working peo-
pie"
Continuing he said that
Holmes County should be
commended for such a beat
tiful new building and trying
to uplift humanity. This state
is making more progress than
most people realize - more
progress in economic develop
ment, unless it is Florida, be-
cause of the attitude of PEG
pie in the state and law
makers in Jackson. Law
makers have done a master
full job in the past three
years, the speaker said.
"The people of Mississippi
have courage and conviction
to get any job done, econo-
mically speaking" the Cover
nor said. He briefly mention
ed that Mississippi had re-
duced income tax to attract
industry here. Legislature has
passed Al economic develop
ment bills to attract industry.
He went on to say, Indus

as a possible place to locate"
Three hundred and twenty

ing expansions or additions,
have located in Mississippi in
the past two years, he con-
tinued, offering $4,000 new
jobs for the people of the
state" He also added, "there
are 14,500 more non-farm jobs
than this time last year"
"The greatest resource we
have in this state are the peo-
~
pie themselves" Governor
Barnett said, I'VE believe in
going forward"
In conclusion Governor Bar
nett named many of the
"firsts' Mississippi has and
told of the need to inform

Cotton Quality -


According to representa-
tiveS of the cotton mills that
are spinning our cotton in 1861
they state that the delta area
of Mississippi gained back
part of their reputation as
producers of good, quality
cotton. They state that the
1861 cotton crop was of eX-
cellent spinning quality. This
was brought about by good
harvesting and ginning.
Clyde Bryson, Cotton Mech
anization Specialist from the
Extension Service, points out
that farmers can protect cot
ton quality and profits by do
ing a good job of mechnical
picking during the rest of our
harvesting season. Mr.. Bryson
CaentiDned several rules to
follow in doing a top job. They
are as follows:

l. Do not operate picker in
the morning before dew has
dried off or late in the after
noon and under no circum-
stances at night.
g.. Pick when lint moisture
is so or less or when seed
cotton moisture is 1919 or less.
3. Use only enough moisture
on spindle to keep them clean.
Do not use oil as moistening
agent.
4. Keep dry and damp cotton
separated.
5. Keep clean and trashy
cotton separated.
6. Tell the ginners if the cot

Planting Winter Grazing =

Remember that we have a
short feed crop TOR our live
stock this winter. Let me urge
that if you have land available
to do SO it would be we'll to
plant winter grazing in order
that you would have some
thing for your cattle to eat
during winter and early spring
months. Oats, wheat, and rye
grass, either by their selves or
in combination with one ano-
Their will make an excellent
winter grazing crop. In order
to have early grazing during
the winter it is absolutely nee
essary to prepare and fertilize
a good seed bed before plant
ing, using at least so units
of nitrogen and so units of
phosphate. If you expect to
plant clover on this land now
or later you should add 60
Units of potash to the area you
are going to put the clover in
You cannot expect to have
grazing before next snrino r.
you are going to sow YOUR
seed on the sod.
If you do not need the graz
ing before February and Mar
Oh then you may sow rye
grass on sod in early October
and wait until January or Feb
ruary to apply your nitrogen
to this grass.
1t is too early to sow GRIM
son clover. Wait until LIS of
Holmes County herald., 1962-09-13

october before planting GRIM
son clover either with early
winter grazing or on the sod.
Timber Stand, improvement
There are millions of acres
|of Gull trees in the state that
are suppressing or preventing
the development of valuable
stands of timber.
ASC funds can be used to
pay two-thirds of the cost of
deadening tree culls, even if
cost is mostly labor by the ow-
ner. In other words, the owner
can hire himself to- work in his
own woods and two-thirds of
the cost will be paid by ASC.
There is little difference in
the effectiveness of the use of
the tree injector, whether US
ed in the dormant season or
during the growing season.
For successful use of the
tree injector remember these
points:
/. The injector bit must be
forced through the outer bark
and the herbicide placed in
contact with the living cells
of the tree.
2. The pockets formed by
the injector must be level and
placed not more than two in
ches apart.
3. The pockets should be
placed as close to the ground
line. as possible.
4. They must be filled with
an effective herbicide.
One of the best herbicides
lis 2, 4, ST. Mix 4 pounds
acid equivalent Casually l
gallon) in 10 gallons of carrier.
If you use the non-emulsifiable
ester for of 2, 4, ST, you
must use oil (deiseD as a car
rier. The emulsifiable ester
form and anime form can
be used with water. Research
shows that anime in water
gives slightly better kills. The
ester and anime cost about
the same, but by using the
anime in water, you save the
cost of the oil and the trouble
OF getting it.

. Grass Worms Or Fall Army

Worms -
We are having a severe out
break of fall army worms that
are eating the grass in pas
lures and on lawns. If you
have any winter grazing COM
ing up or coming up soon they
will certainely attack these
young plants. These worms
can be easily killed by spray
ing or busting with sewn. If
you are going to dust use 10
pounds of 1919 SEWN dust per
acre or 12A pounds of 7a%

If you plan to spray for
the worms use Ii to II pounds

of killing these worms.
