County's Oldest Best Newspaper-66 Years Old VOLUME LXVI. Boll Weevils Are Active According To Plant Board Infestation Continues To Rise In Spite of Rapid Fruiting In Most Sections of State State College, July 1-The boll weevil infestation in Mississippi continued to rise during, the past week in spite of fruiting of cotton in most sections, indicating the probability of very severe damage this season, the State Plant Board announced today. During the past week, inspectors of the board examined 93 farms in 19 counties, which 85 were infested with weevils. On 76 farms where squares were large enough to be punctured, the average infestation was 19 per cent, compared with 17 per cent last week, 8 per cent in 1937, and 1 per cent in 1936 at this date. In nine fields not yet squaring, the weevils averaged 207 per acre.

Clay Lyle, entomologist of the board, is urging that cotton growers have dusting machinery and calcium arsenate on hand ready to make applications as soon as needed. He advised that careful counts should be made before dusting, and when the infestation is 10 to 15 per cent in heavily fruiting cotton, three applications should be made at five-day intervals. information about boll weevil control may be secured from the State Plant Board at State College. Guidebook Loses Its State Backing Mississippi Advertising Commission Withdraws Its Sponsorship Jackson, July cognizance of complaints from many Mississippi communities whose local patriotism had been "stepped on" by comments in the Federal Writers, guidebook to the state, the Mississippi Advertising Commission at its regular June meeting officially withdrew its sponsorship to the recently published WPA volume. The action was taken on the ground that the volume did not "conform to the goal of advertising Mississippi which limits this Commission's functions." The text of the resolution is as follows: WHEREAS, the Mississippi Advertising Commission was requested to sponsor the publication of a Mississippi guidebook which had been compiled and edited by the Federal Writers Project; and WHEREAS.

it was the understanding that the text of the proposed book dealt with historical and other interesting facts concerning Mississippi, the Advertising Commission, seeing in it an opportunity for service to the best interests of the state, agreed to sponsor said publication, but without the expenditure of any of the funds appropriated by the Legislature for the use of the Mississippi Advertising Commission or any other funds of the State of Mississippi, the Commission lending only its name to the cause of the project; and WHEREAS, after publication of the said book there were found isolated references in the text which seemed to violate the understanding under which the Commission agreed to sponsor its publiction. and which do not conform the goal of advertising Mississippi that limits this Commisison's functions, or to the adopted policy under which we operate; NOW. THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that by a unanimous vote of the Commission on June 27, 1938, the Director be notified that the Mississippi Advertising Commission officially withdraws its name and sponsorship from the said enterprise. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that we do not intend, in taking such action, to cast discredit upon the Federal Writers Project, or upon the undoubted worth of many parts of the said book in question, our only purpose being to continue to hew to the well-defined limits within which we are expected by the people of Mississippi to operate. The sponsorship was withdraw despite the fact that high praise has been given to the book in national reviews.

"Big league" have called it "magnificent," "excellently prepared and and model for other guides to follow." The book, however, has been better received outside the state than in, many Mississippi editors complaining of the treatment given to their particular communities in the 550- page volume.

One Cent Rise In Cotton Price Biggest farm news, of the past week was the one a pound advance in the price of cotton. The importance of a rise in the price of cotton is indicated by the fact that a gain of one cent a pound would send Mississippi farm income on a normal crop up nearly $10,000,000. This sum is almost equivalent to government farm payments for one year and emphasizes the fact that the greatest farm need is higher prices for farm products.

A substantial increase in the price of raw cotton would add little to the retail price of cotton goods but it would tremendously increase farm buying power which in turn would benefit try. every kind of business in the Reports of increasing boll weevil infestation, poor stands, grassy fields, coupled with the bulge in the stock market and largest sales of cotton goods in several months stimulated cotton purchases and sent the price up 96 points during the week.

Be alive on the Soap Box Derby Entry List Growing As Boys of This Section Enroll Names Attractive Prize List Being Arranged For Event of Yazoo's Mid-Summer Festival JULY TH bang-up Fourth without a bang-up!" That appeal to the nation was issued by the National Safety Council in its campaign to reduce the huge annual toll of accidents over the Fourth of July holiday.

Emphasizing the fact that the annual July accident toll is greater than in any other month of the year and that a large part of this toll is due to the Independence Day holiday, the council asked every citizen to use greater care in driving, swimming, boating and other holiday activities, and not to use explosives or fireworks. The council suggested six general rules to avert holiday tragedy: Eligible youngsters are enrolling now in the Soap Box Derby competition which will be staged here on the morning of Wednesday, July 27. as part of the program for the Mid-Summer Festival of Yazoo merchants, sponsored by the Yazoo County Chamber of Commerce. The competition is divided into two classes: Class A for youngsters between the ages of 13 to 15 inclusive: and Class for boys between the ages of 9 to 12 inclusive. The first requirement for entry is registration at the Handwerker Motor Company.

The boy must secure the signature of his parent or guardian upon the entry blank. He must build his own racer at a cost of not exceeding ten Though he may have outside advice and assistance, he must do all of the actual construction work himself in order to be eligible. The Yazoo City Soap Box Derby will be run on July 27 as a preliminary to the Memphis Soap Box Derby, which will be run on Sunday, August 7. Yazoo winners will participate in the Tri-State finals with winners from other Soap Box Derbies run in the Memphis territory. The Yazoo City race is sponsored by The Yazoo City Herald and Alf J.

Handwerker, local Chevrolet dealer, and is part of a nationwide contest sponsored by the Chevrolet Motor Company, though set up as a separate organization under the title "All-American Soap Box Derby." Winners in the two classes at Ya200 City will be given all-expense trips to Memphis to compete in the Tri-State finals, besides a handsome assortment of valuable merchandise prizes which will be given for various events. In Memphis, the winner in the finals will be sent to Akron, by the Memphis Commercial Appeal as the Tri-State entry in the national Soap Box Derby. Many merchandise prizes will also be offered those competing there. A great many Yazoo City and County boys have already signed up to compete in this year's race, and yesterday an inquiry came from James Hudgins, who lives near Mobile, with an intimation that he will probably enter the race here. Rolling Fork, Louise, Midnight, Silver City and "Belzoni are expected to have entries and the Yazoo City race promises to draw a record-breaking entry list.

State Board Will Send Out Notices To Advise County Superintendents Amount Of State Funds Coming The State Board of Education will send out notices next Friday, July 1, to the county superintendents of education and the superintendents of separate school districts as to the amount of state funds their county or separate school district will receive for the 1938-39 school session. This will include both the per capita fund and the equalizing fund. The per capita fund for this year is $3.50 per child for all children in the county or separate school district between the ages of six and twenty-one. The total number of educables for the state on which disbursement will be made for the next two years is 843,239.

This represents an increase of 19,997 over the census used for the past two years. The equalizing fund is sent to counties and separate school districts qualifying for same according to the law and the standards set up by the State Board of Education. At the present time, only two equalizing counties in the state, Benton and Tishomingo, do not levy a ten mill county-wide tax for school purposes. However. in these counties, practically all districts qualify for full participation in the equallizing fund and less than one-half of one per cent of all the white children in the state will not have access to an eight months school term next year.

Budgets for all school districts and counties should be filed with the State Superintendent of Education on or before July 15. They are insisting that this be done so that all budgets can be approved before the first quarterly installment of the school funds is sent out on August 15. Failure to submit budgets in time for their approval before this date will result in a delay in the disbursement of funds to the county or school district. They again wish to emphasize the importance of practicing sound business principles in setting up your budgets and in financing the schools of each county and district in the state. Express Appreciation of Work Done On Monument R.

Dear Mr. Murray: We want to express to you our appreciation for your work in cleaning the monument of George P. Crump which was erected by Ya200 City to the memory of Mr. Crump. This monument had begun to look old and very much discolored.

After you had cleaned it, its appearance was entirely different. The monument was brightened and freshened and the discolorations were removed so that it was attractive in appearance. Your efforts in getting this monument in first-class condition was not only appreciated by us but by those who visit the cemetery from time to time. Very truly yours, R. J.

Patterson, administrative officer in charge, AAA, in Mississippi. Practically all cotton imported by American mills is of special quality not commonly found in cotton produced in the United States, he pointed out. Recent publicity given to a shipment of cotton from Calcutta, India, to Richmond, for delivery to a North Carolina mill has led to a great deal of misunderstanding about the importation of cotton to this country, Patterson said. Many people received the impression that the United States had suddenly started importing cheap cotton from foreign countries to compete with cotton produced here at home, and in some cases the impression has been given that the adjustment programs were responsible for the imports. This is not the case at all, Patterson said.

Manufacturers in the United States have been importing cotton of various grades and staples for many years, including especially long and fine staple cotton, such as Egyptian and Peruvian varieties, and the so-called rough varieties of very short staple cotton produced in India and China. Very, cheap foreign growths also be imported at times and sold to advantage in competition with cheaper cotton mill waste or the very low grades of American cotton. Patterson explained that in 1926 this country produced a crop of 18,000,000 bales but imported a total of 400,000 bales. The annual average of imports from 1923 to 1932 was 273,000 bales. The average dropped to 163,000 bales for the 4- year period, 1933-36.

For the first eight months of the current marketing year imports total only 000 bales, as compared with 139,000 bales for the same period in the preceding, shipment year. of Indian cotton which caused wide publicity when "spotted" in a Richmond warehouse was consigned to the Beacon Manufacturing Swannanoa, N. a blanket-manufacturing concern. The Indian cotton has a very short and the fiber is harsh and crinkly. It does not compete with ordinary cotton but is better suited for mixing with wool in cottonwool blankets and various kinds of part-wool cloth than cotton produced in the United States.

It is safe to say that imports of cotton to this country will continue to be confined to very amounts of special types not commonly produced here, and there is no ground for believing there is a trend toward increasing our cotton imports, Patterson concluded. REA Projects Of State Listed Mississippi farmers will be interested in knowing of the progress made in rural electrification in the Six projects have been approved, many miles of lines have been built and many farm homes are now using electric current for the first time. REA financed projects in operation in Mississippi include the following: Monroe County Electric Power Association, 158 miles and 769 customers; City of Holly Springs, 56 miles and 270 customers; Yazoo Valley Electric Association, 156 miles and 423 customers; Coahoma Electric Power Association, 126 miles and 442 customers; Central Electric Power Association, Carthage 121 miles and 509 customers; Hancock Power Electric Association, 60 miles and 170 customers. Woman Spends Night In Swamp Mrs. Wylie Cobb, young white woman resident of the Possum Bend section of Yazoo County, spent all of Wednesday night in Big Black swamp near her home, clad only in thin clothes, according to information from Sheriff R.

D. Warren. Residents of that section called Sheriff Warren about midnight, and a search was instituted in which Mrs. Cobb was found about half a mile from her home at around 6 o'clock Thursday morning. Mrs.

Cobb, an expectant mother, had a row with her husband early Wednesday night, and he is said to have cursed her and ordered her to leave. She went out into the night, though she said she heard calls and saw the lights of the searching party, she refused to answer until discovered early Thursday morning.

Their task was just completed yesterday, although a sufficiently large number were sold right away to re-establish the strong financial position of the club.

Cotton Seed Meal Is An Economical Feed Mississippi farmers have known for a long time that cottonseed meal is one of the most efficient and economical of all protein concentrate feeds for- cattle. But few farmers are utilizing this excellent farm-grown feed for feeding mules. Experiments conducted by the Delta experiment station at Stoneville show that cottonseed meal may be safely fed to mules along with corn and hay to provide a well-balanced ration.

Other experiments conducted in Mississippi and in other southern states indicate that much larger quantities of cottonseed meal could be profitably fed to high grade cattle..
