potato crop is a very important mat-
ter to Harrison County. Probably the
largest yield in our history is in sight.
A meeting will be held at Longview
in an effort to provide a way to dis-
post of this crop. Our County Agem,
M. H.Young and several potato grow-
everything by the way of “staggering
bargains", “hurrah discounts”, “discon-
tinued lines at less” and so forth they
know what not to get.
They want a fresh, live tire. With a
good reputation. That's everything it says
it is. With the people behind it who
back it up.

THE
U. S. NOBBY TREAD
Where the going is specially heavy
with snow, mud or sand, in hilly
country where mazimum traction on
the road is a factor, no other tire tread
yet devised is quite so effective, or to
wholly approved by motoring opin-
ion, as the U. S. Nobby Tread.
Its very simplicity- three rows of
diagonal knobs, gripping the road-
ie the result of all the years of U. S.
Rubber experience with every type
at road the world over.
Perhaps it’s the experience of U. S.
Tire buyers that makes them more em-
phatic in their preference than ever this
year.

Most likely you’ll hear an inter-
esting story about his tire experi-
ments—before the answer was
found. Money wasted. Promises
unkept. Trouble on the road—hu-
morous to every one except the
man who went through it.
Finally U. S. Tires. And U. S.
Tires ever since.

Ther are some petitions being cir-
culated asking the City Commissioners
a to place the tax valuations on proper-
1 ty at the same figures they were
prior to the raises made last year.
Those raises were made to aid the
schools but it afterwards transpired
tp that the school did ont need the money
5 because of the fact that the sate gave
F unexpected aid. The increased valua-
h tion brought into the city treasury
about $33,000. Of this amount some-
3 thing over $11,000 is being held for
paving the square. The schools re-
P ‘ ceived of this $38,000 the sum of
$3,000.
The equalisation board now in ses-
sion are said to be in favor of keeping
the valuation as they were after the
raise was made last year. Mr. Her
I bert Cook. Chairman of the Commis-
sioners made the following statement

“We wish to keep the valuations
where they are but we propose to re-
duce the tax rate. The rate for 1920
was $1.94 on the hundred dollars val-
uation. We have gone carefully over
the needs of the city for the coming
year and if values are left as they sre
we can make the tax rate $1.75 for
1921. We propose to run the fire,
water and police departments at the
same figures as last year. We wish
to increase the apropriation for the
health department and also want ad
ditional funds for the streets. The
city has a floating indebtedness of
128,000. most of which was incurred
for purchasing fire house and trac-
tors. But we can take care of all
these matters and put the tax rate at
11.75 if values remain as now. It is
generally understood that the most

The following circular was given
the News by a gentlemen who was in
Carthage Monday. It was printed in
big type and scaattered all over the
city. The meeting was held and steps
taken to make a first class road from
Panola’s County seat to the oil well.
Here is the circular:
“Mass Meeting. A public Mass
Meeting is hereby called to be held at
the Courthouse at 10:30 o’clock today,
Monday, August 1st, to consider ways
and means of placing in good condi-
tion the roads and bridges leading
from Carthage to the new oil well
near DeBerry. This well is a Panola
County product, and Marshall is pre-
paring to reap what belongs to Car-
thage. This is Carthage’s opportuni-
ty, and unless we act quickly it will
be lost. I hope every business and
professional man in Carthage will
close his doors and attend this meet-
much to our town and county. T. J.
Wooten, Mayor.”

country, In the little city of Chico,
California—some 180 miles northeast
of San Franelsco, there is a giant
white-oak tree which to believed to
be tile largest of its kind in the world.
This ponderous monarch of the tor

Hooker. the noted English naturallst,
who. In 1877. after a clone examination
and considerable study, pronounced it
to be larger than any of the wondrous
oaks for which England was famed.

Scott hands the letter printed below
from the Texas Farm Bureau which
tends to throw light on the subject:
“To members of the General Com-
mittee on Organization of a Sweet Po-
tato Exchange
“Responding to requests of many
sweet potato growers that the Texas
Farm Bureau Federation undertake to
organize a marketing system for
sweet potatoes this year, we called a
meeting at Longview on July 20 to
consider the matter, and presented to
that meeting a plan of organization
and form of contract. The meeting
accepted the plan but made a material
change in the contract relating lo
membership in the Farm Bureau.

ing would make I difficult for the
Farm Bureau to undertake this work
with satisfaction to its own members
and other growers who are not now
members of the Farm Bureau. We do
not feel warranted in changing the
work of the Longview meeting without
a conference with the general commit-
tee and it would be impossible for us
to hold such a meeting earlier than the
latter part of next week, which would
mean that we could not print the con-
tract and begin actual work of organi-
zaetion until after August 1.
“This necessary delay would leave ।
a very short time in which to make
the campaign for membership, nego-
tiate contracts with a large number
of storage houses and arrange a mr.i-
keting organization to handle the
crop.
“In view of these things and the
harm that would’ come if we under-
took to do too much in too short a
time and failed, we have reluctantly
concluded that it will not be best for
the Farm Bureau to undertake to or-
ganize a Sweet Potato marketing sys-
tem to handle this season’s crop.
“We are not unmindful of the de-
sire of potato growers for assistance
this season but we all must agree that
it would be better to wait than to rush
in now and make a failure of it. Early
next spring we will take the matter up
again and proceed carefully and de-
liberately and work out plans and set
up a real marketing system.
Again assuring you of our regret
that we cannot, for these reasons stat-
ed above, undertake this work now, I

Monroe, La., August 1.—The Wsyne
Drilling and Development Company
has completed its carbon black and
gasoline manufacturing plants at
Swartz, which were begun about fif-
teen months ago. Victor Tierger-
strom, former manager of the Mon-
! roe Gas company, is connected with
1 he company as superintendent. The
I plant is said to have cost about $250,
000 and is one of the most modern
of its kind in the United States, hav-
ing new methods for the manufacture
of carbon.
The Southern Carbon Company,
which began the construction of its
branch carbon plant at Swartz last
year, expect to complete the plant
by January 1. The plant is said to
have cost about $200,000, the cost
having been reduced by the fact that
burning hounes and equipment was
brought here from West Virginia.
