What is CASTORIA
Castoria is a harmless substitute for Castor Oil, Paregoric,
Drops and Soothing Syrups. It is pleasant. It contains
neither Opium, Morphine nor other narcotic substance. Its
age is its guarantee. For more than thirty years it has
been in constant use for the relief of Constipation, Flatulency,
Wind Colic and Diarrhoea; allaying Feverishness arising
therefrom, and by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, aids
the assimilation of Food; giving healthy and natural sleep.

(Intended for last week.)
A custom observed annually by the
local chater U. D. C., is that of clean
ing and decorating with flowers, the
place where lie so many Confederate

The weather was ideal last Fri
day, when a goodly number of loyal
Daughters went out and spent the
day, supervising the *vork being done
on the grounds. By the courtesy of
Mr. Murry C. Falkner, a substantial
table with seats attached was sent
out and given to the ladies for per
manent use there. This added great
ly to the comfort of serying a very
delightful lunch at ~ 12 o’clock.
Throughout" the day, in an informal
way, many plans were discussed for
beautifying and making attractive
;this spot, a result of which was that
a contract was let to open up a drive
jway entirely around the enclosure.

for the University, contributed gen
erously toward building a road from

Trying to Perfect
Marketing Organization
’For'the past four weeks some,
considerable missionary work in the j
interest of organizing farm pro-1
duce marketing in Mississippi has
been in progress, under the direct
auspices of the provisional .officers
of the Mississippi 'State Farm Bu- j
reau marketing exchange. The pur
pose behind this movement is to per
fect a marketing organization simi
lar to those now functioning in Ok
lahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Missouri,
and especially those pertaining to1
the standardizing of cotton market-!
ing on the growers’ and producers’
exchange basis, similar to the Texas-\
Oklahoma-Arkansas plan.
Among the hard and consistent
workers is President 0. L. Neill, or
Jones Couidy, of the State Farm
Bureau Federation, with a group or i
associates who have tiie principles1
actuating this growing and success
nil movement in other States firmly
imbued in their minds. It'is an edu
cational movement, carrying to the
minds and understanding of the pro
ducers of staple farm products in
ivlississij^fii direct information as to
! the value and the necessity of or
ganized and intelligent cd-operative
i methods; not only for producing the
! best that the soil and climate af
i lords, but disposing of their products
! in tiie best and most profitable mar
ikets, on a strictly co-operative basis,
1 • j
j supported from their own resources,
I which, when compared with the
j benefits and results in view, are
practically negligible.
Co-operating with the farm bu
reau organizers in this work are a
number of the trained workers of the
Extension Service in Mississippi, who
are operating under the official direc
tion of it. S. Wilson, head or the ex
tension forces in Mississippi. The
group of field workers Includes J.
W. Willis, state agent and assistant
director of extension; the four dis
trict agents for mens’ work: J. E.
Ituff, lor Soutii Mississippi; L. A.
Olson, for North Mississippi; M. M. I
liedenbaugh for East and Central
Mississippi, and C. M. Bose, for the :
Bella district. Associated with
these are Messrs. T. M. Patterson
and A. G. Bpinks of the market and
crops bureau, W. P. Gordon, Colion
Marketing specialist, James E. Tan
nei, state leader in boy club work,
and the county farm uemonstratiou
agents, also in their advisory ca- !
pacity.
It is a somewhat slow process, bul
reports from the field indicate that
tlie the farmers of the organized
counties are giving intelligent atten
tion to these leaders, and it is con
fidently believed that by the time
ror crop marketing in 11123, Missis
sippi will be in line with her sister
coLion stales in the business of in
telligent and profitable marketing
of farm.commodities, whether cotton,
giams, ieedsturls, dairy products,
or those commodities winch go into
the making dl products ot tne soil,
on a profitable business basis.
A round up “pep" meeting is sche
duled to be held in Jackson, Miss.,
on May 8, next, and the field work
ers are of the opinion that they will
be able to show gratifying results
of this campaign work in which they
are engaged.

HEADQUARTERS MISS. DIVI
SION U. C. VETERANS
Magnolia, Miss., April 19, 1922.
To The People of Mississippi:
On the sixth day of May, 1862,1
the tocsin of war was sounded in
every southern community - for on
that day the Congrses of the Con
federate States recognized a state of
war as being in existence.
By authority, our President, Jeff
erson Davis, that man of iron will
and dauntless courage; that man who
never hesitated, who never faltered
when dtuy demanded, called for
volunteers to repel an insolent foe,
who was invading our beautiful
Southland. The finest young men
from every walk of life answered the
call.
After four long and strenuous
years, during which they endured
many hardships; many long and
weary marches; when their rations
were exhausted and ranks. depleted,
they laid down their arms to return
to the remains of their charred
homes; ravaged fields and poverty
stricken families, many wounded and
in broken health.
After a few years when it was
learned that quite a number -of these
heroes, who had been victorious on
more than a hundred hard fought
battle fields, were languishing in
poor houses throughout the state,
The U. D. C. conceived the idea of
purchasing a home. Assisted by the
Veterans, sons of veterans, they
purchased Beauvoir, Jefferson Davis
Borne.
The present Supreintendent, Mr.
Tartt and wife, have been untiring in
their effort to make this an ideal
home.
The sad need is a hospital; that
the sick and dying old heroes may
have a comfortable and decent place
while they are passing through the
dark valley of the shadow of death.
At a meeting of the Mississippi
Division U. C. V. in Tupelo last Sep-1
tember, a resolution was unanimous
ly indorsed favoring the erection ol'
an up to date hospital*at Beauvoir.
Mr. Tartt secured the passage of
a bill by the last legislature, author
izing the Board of Supervisors in
each\county to donate funds not to
exceed $1,00(1.00 to build this hos
pital. Our generous friend Mr. W.
M. Lamp ton of Magnolia, Miss., who
has done so much for the old veter
ans at Beauvoir has kindly consent
ed to donate 10 per cent of all funds
appropriated either by State or per
sonal contribution. 1 appeal to the
U. D. C., Sons of Veterans, the U.
C. V., the W. W. Veterans, the Minis
ters of different churches and Edi
tors to use their personal influence
with their respective Board of Sup
ervisors on May 2nd to make a hand
some appropriation.
The people of the grand old State
of Mississippi have never 'failed to
endorse a commendable and laudable
enterprise.
We need this hospital, for the
many aged, sick, feeble and penni
less old veterans who are excluded
tor want of space from the present
delapidated inadequate fire trap.
W e need this hospital because it
will give room for many worthy vet
erans throughout the state who have
made application, and cannot be ad
mitted for want of space.
We need it as a monument for our
selves and for the sake of our chil
dren and grandchildren that it may
be a reminder to them of the uevotion
to duty; the struggles and sacrifices
that our people cheerfully under-1
went for the cause of righteousness
and justice.
May God bless you.

Com. Miss. Div. U- C. V.

Most of last year's wheat Is low tn
grade or weeoily and musty. Choice,
prime. Dainty quality wheat is scarce
and costs a big premium. Bui we
will use no other—we will not lower
the quality of Dainty.
Why Dair\ty Flour
is worth more
WALIER’S Dainty Flour
v is milled from only the
• creamy-white centers of
choice, prime, soft winter
wheat. Such wheat is very
scarce this year due to ad
verse weather conditions and
every bushel costs a big pre
mium. So you’d expect
Dainty to cost a few cents
more than ordinary flour
milled from ordinary wheat.
But you’d also expect it to
produce better baking. And
it certainly does—unusually
fine, even-textured, full
flavored baking—always.
