MISSISSIPPI SPENDS i $12,000,000 TO BUILD TURBERCULOSIS HOME (By Asaoclated Press) MAGEE, Mi33., Aug. 24. The state of Mississippi -will have ready for formal opening here on Jan. 1. 1923. according to present plans, one of the most modern and commodious sanitariums for tubercular patients in the United States. ; : . When completed, it will have a capacity of 960 patients, and the buildings and equipment -will represent an expenditure of something like $1,200,000. The work was Degun in 1918 and some of the buildings are already completed and in use. The entire plant, however, will not be finished for some time. . Accommodations will be provided for both white and colored patients.

The principal buildings are the white

lnnrmary, the service building, and nurses' home, power house, and laundry, negro infirmary and administra

tion building, and provision is made for offices of the field service and ex

tension department. Operate Farm.

A farm of 338 acres is operated in connection with the sanitarium to provide fresh milk, eggs and other foodstuffs for the patients. An idea of the extent of the plant may be gained from the size of the white infirmary. It is 531 feet long, 30 feet wide, with a central wing of 50

by 45 feet, which will care for 200 patients at one time, men on the south

and women on the north. The struc

ture contains 120 rooms for patients, 60 built-in bath tubs, and 58 porches.

in addition to the most modern equip

ment science has provided for the

treatment of tuberculosis. The rooms

are connected with the porches by

ioiamg glass doors.

The Farm and the Farmer By William R. Sanborn

A TOWNSHIP FAIR Some farmers in Randolph county

decided that what they needed in Jackson township was a fair A Jackson Township Fair, if you please, and

it was so ordered. It wa3 a one day;

fair and was pulled of in fine shape on Tuesday, August 22, on the town

ship school grounds. In addition to a number of exhibits of live stock and poultry in general the members of the pig and poultry clubs displayed their pets before all comers, with great pride, as well they might. Were there any horseshoe pitching contests? Certainly. And more than this there was a tractor demonstration in a field just across from the school building. And to make every one feel comfortable and optimistic

an old fashioned farm picnic dinner

was served. Yes. of course there was a ball game. Who played, sez you? Well." we haven't the names handy, but

the north and south ends of Jackson

township competed in the baseball as well as in the pitching contests, the two great events of the day. The best horse shoe pitchers, ball tossers and batters in the township were drafted to make a farmers' holiday. If was a great ball game, so 'tis said,

but the statement that the winning team made 500 runs, is wildly exag

gerated. We take no stock in euch fiction. If they made 200 runs they put in a hot and busy afternoon. The combination farm picnic and township fair was voted a success and is likely to be repeated next August, A. L. Austin of Purdue, assistant state children's club leader, was the guest of honor. Connersvtlle's Big Day Thursday was the Big Day at Connersville and although the morning dawned with a promise of rain the skies cleared during the forenoon and the expected crowd of visitors swarmed all over the place during most of the day. The people of Connersville are justly proud of their fair and so, too. is Fayette county, which supports

it liberally and covers tne snow grounds with exhibits which would be a credit at any agricultural show. Friday being the closing date of both the Greenville and Connersville fairs, the next fair to come into the local limelight is the Dublin Free Fair, a three day event, August 30 to September 1. There can be no doubt that the citizens of Dublin are plan

ning to put on a great show ana to

As a matter of fact several of our Wayne Preble, Fayete, Union and Randolph farmers were reported in this department as losers of from 15 to as high as 60 per cent of their litter. And what occurred here was duplicated in other corn belt sections, according to common report. . .. Such conditions presaged a short crop of spring pigs for the summer and fall market, at least this was the general impression speaking for Indiana. Now comes the editor of Wallaces' Farmer to the fore with a renewal of his February slogan, urging an eat more pork campaign. He reasons as follows: "The spring pig crop is evidently much larger than anyone figured on. Last February, when we began to

ly simple, said Mr. Anderson. He asserted that the reason why banks will not usually make loans on farm paper for longer than six months is that only notes for less than six months can be rediscounted at the federal reserve bank. He suggested the Creation of a rediscount bank where farm paper from one to three years would be discounted. The operation of thi3

bank would be financed by the salt of bonds to the investing public and thus the financial centers would be tapped and the money made to flow back to the farms.

Gasoline is produced by "cracking" heavier oils. The Burton process foi" this production yielded in 1921 a daily' average of some 2,000,000 gallons. . .

Sidney Anderson, congressman from Minnesota, was the principal speaker at the annual meeting of the Bartholomew county farm bureau at Columbus, on Wednesday. "The only tope of improving conditions for the American today, lies in a strong organization," said the speaker. An exhaustive study of the conditions that have brought about the agricultural crisis, which he made as chairman of a congressional committee and with the aid of a corps of experts, was the basis of 'Mr. Anderson's

talk. He quoted statistics indicating

that the percentage. of the consumers dollar received by the farmer ha

not only are the town residents at work to this end, for the farmers are lending valuable assistance and will display farm products in profusion. We are assured that a number of the exhibits at Dublin will be shown at the Wayne county fair at Glen Miller September 13, 14 and 15. The Age of a Cow. Every now and again you have seen published diagrams of a cow's mouth and teeth, and a story as to how to tell the age of a cow. A man who claims to know all about this matter says that many guessers go wrong on the age question regardless, and for this reason. They figure that the heifer gets a new pair "of permanent teeth" every year, when as a fact she gets a new outfit every nine months, counting "from the time she is a year and a half old." He concluded by saying that if the animal has horns it is easy to tell her age. "count the number of rings or wrinkles, and add two," is his method.
