- That federal aid can fee obtained
to assist In building bridge
across the South - Canadian river
notlh of Ada when the ‘two coun-
ties Involved -find the money to
moot It was the assurabce given by
laul Nesbitt State Highway Com-
missioner here Saturday! evening
Mr Nesbitt came to Adg on one
of his- trips out over the state to
see what the various counties need
and to determine in Vhnt way his
department can best ' serve the
needs A number of business men
county commissioners " farmers and
professional men entertained and
were entertained by Mf Nesbitt at

ning i
Albert Chamberlain I fiwd ‘ Taylot
and J O McMlnn toliltlifse pred-
ent of the condition afli yoads-fn
the county pointing oUkrtha dam-
age that has been done by the
heavy rains! of the lagtibwi days
Hon Fred K BrydlSs introduced
'Mr Nesbitt and told jpfjhla obleot
In persuading the hlgnwdy Osommls-
sioner to come to -this county He
spoke of Mr Nesbitt In the highest
terms and predicted that A® would
niuke the best highway commission-
er the state has ever hhd ’
Problems Face State
' The commissioner pointed out
some of the problems that re fac-
ing him and the county commis-
sioners of the entire state as a re-
sult of the unprecedented floods
The great trouble is 'that 1 enough
money Is not available ‘ to do the
things In urgent need of being
done but the roads and bridges are
essential and must be replaced
Nesbitt said It may be necessary
for counties to borrow the money
but the bridges and roads must be
provided since they are the arteries
of trade and serve the same pur-
pose as the railroads nerved years
ago Nesbitt added
Commissioner Nesbitt stressed
stiessed the point that' Pontotoc
county Is In an enviable position
With a valuation of something like
118000 000 it has alirtodt no bond-
ed indebtedness he adtfCd - J
The poorer pounties are going to
get the most of the federal aid tin-
dcr th© present adittiniBtrfttiou the
commissioner assured thpae present
In the past the rich counties have
been grabbing all the federal aid
This Is to toe changed and part of
the money Is to be spent In the
counties not able to d® tor them-
selves he stated il i
Highway Bill tJeeful
'Under the highway' bill as pass-
ed by the last legislature the state
highway department will have an
estimated Income front the one
cent a gallon tax on gasoline of
$1500000 This will fee used "
eaih county in proportion to the
mileage of state roads A patrol
system of road maintenance is to
be put Into effect and the roads
kept as nearly perfect as those
funds will permit It Is estimated
this will allow about fl$10d a mile
each year" he said f w
Cooperation with ne county
commissioners Is to be thB ‘Intention
of the highway department Only
by close coope'ration can tb best
results be obtained Mr r Nesbitt
btlitves and he is wiling to give
and get that cooperation
Others who talked op the prob-
lems were J I LaughUn Orel
Busby Luther Harrison and oth-
6r The Idea was advanced that a
bond Issue should be submitted to
the people asking for unds to re-
build the destroyed bridges and
also Tontotoc county’s share of the
cost of a bridge across Qie river

The make of butter la reported
a little lighter than last year due
to the lateness In the season and
it Is expected within the next two
or three weeks the flush will be
reached and the make will either
eual or exceed that of a year ago
There Is a good demand for cur-
rent use hut the quality Is not
yet suitable i for storage
The market today on 90 score
standards in Chicago Is 38 3-4
cents as compared with 38 3-4
cents a week ago and 33 3-4 cents
a year ago
There is a difference o t 3 1-2
cents a pound between 88 and 90
score butter Only a small portioa
of the earlots arriving will score
90 which shows the importance
of better car' and attention to the
marketing of cream in order that
the manufacturer may produce
more butter that will score 90 on
the Chicago market
Better butter will mean Improved
results to the producer
SWIFT & COMPANY
No matter how much a man may
be opposed to the co-operative plan
of marketing cotton he will have
to admit that the organisation has
done much good by showing that
a groat saving ran be affected
through pioper care of the cotton
in the bale Naturally If a bale is
permitted to Jle out in the weather
two or three months be ripped open
for samples from one to three times
and have several pounds picked
out of the cut places it is going
to be damaged very materially
Somebody must pay for this loss
and naturally the farmer Is the
man who is made to foot the bill
For years protests have gone
up against the elipshod manner of
handling American cotton hut
matters went on as before Now
however when it - can he shown
that cotton properly cared for brings
a much better price the farmers
may well demand better care of
their product and also protect bet-
ter that which they may hold
over
The canning season Is with us
again and the housewives are busy
with -Vegetables and berries with
peaches and other fruit to come on
a little later A well filled pantry
or collar means some good eating
next winter In my own case my
better half fcbB been routing me
out early In the morning to help
pick dewberries since berries must
be fresh picked to give the best
results I think I have earned a
few pies anyway

Albert Chamberlain manager of
the Farmers Exchange reports that
his firm has handled 31 cars of
hogs since January 1 averaging
around 1159 per car That is more
than $35000 and the price haB been
low besides When It is remember-
ed that other shippers loaded hogs
here and at the vailous towns of
the county It will be seen that the
hog business is helping quite a
bit in the way of bringing money
into the county
Agent Hill has (been advised that

There will he no county agricul-
tural scholarships for the next two
years since no appropriations were
approved for this purpose Hereto
fore two $20000 scholarships in

J B Gray who lives three miles
west of Lula Btates that he la go-
ing to plant 6ome 20 or 25 acres
of broom corn on land where cotton
has been washed away This is a
new crop to Mr Gray and most
others In Pontotoc county but In-
dications are that It will fee of suf-
ficient size this year to be of some
Importance and It may lead to a
lino of highly profitable farming
Mrs Duvall reports a most excel
lent meeting of the Pickett club
girls at her office Saturday Thir
teen of the gills came lit and spent

In recent years producers have
found that It pays to produce In-
fertile eggs during hot weather A
fertile egg simply will not keep
while an infertile one will remain
fresh for a long time-Hence many
producers either kill or t shut up
their roosters during the warm season

Irish Potatoes
By D C Mooring -Extension
Horticulturist A and M
College
Frequently club members and
truck farmers experience difficul-
ty in keeping their spring crop of
Irish potatoes The Teason for this
most usually is on account of im-
proper harvesting The first essen
tial In the keeping of the spring
crop of Irish potatoes is to harvest
the crop earl) that is to say be-
gin to haivest the iprotatoos when
the vines begin to turn yellow Do
not idelny until the plants are all
dead
In harvesting potatoes do not ex-
pose them to the sun This may be
avoided by digging early in the
morning or late in the afternoon or
when necessary to harvest them dur-
ing the day pick them up immedi
ately as they are plowed out of the
groundz ‘
Store tho potatoes m a cool dry
place where the sun will not shine
on them which may be in the barn
or airy loft or It may be under
the house where the foundation Is
not closed One of tho main essen-
tials is to store them whore the
cool nlr will have access to them

Sweet Potato Diseases
“There are two common diseases
In this state which frequently de-
crease the yield of sweet potatoes
says D C Mooring hortiqultui 1st
with the extension division of the
A and M college "They ate black
rot and stem rot or sometimes call-
ed wilt or yellows
"The plants nffeioted by yellows
or wilt turn yellow These plants
should be dug out end burned In
order to avoid alsoased seed for
next year you should make vine
cuttings and set them in new ground
In which diseased potatoes havo
not been grown and grow your seeu
for next year The latter part of
June Is good time to make vine
cuttings"

Tolman spokesman of the dele-

harmony with those of Mr Wilson
that I could not teach In an Insti-
tution over which he is president
"furthermore I regard a man
who has less education than half ol
the student body absolutely unfit
for the presidency 1 ' also regard
his methods of obtslnng the presb
deucy thoroughly out of harmon)
with the ethics ot the teaching pro
test I on that 1 do not see how an)
self-respecting teacher could remall
on his faculty"
Several other resignations ot fac

an unofficial statement that h
plans to stump the state to "tel
