When old “buz-fuz” dirt two
miles from the Paw and Maw
aells for more than three hun-
dred dollars an acre, it is time
She owners of the long staple
farms around Clarksville get

Red River County News.
Clarksville newspapers con
tinue to talk of the buzz-fuzz cot-
ton districts, when the land that
grows it sells for more money
than the dirt which produces
long staple around Clarksville.
Has the editor of The News any
explanation to offer as to why
this is true?

Armistice Day Game
The Deport football team play
<ed their second game Armistice
Day at Paris, against the Paris
high school, and were defeated
by a score of 20 to 0. The Paris
eleven made all their scores in
the first two quarters. After
that the Deport boys settled
down to real football, and no
scores were made by either side,
in the last two quartet's. Paris
has a stronger team than the
Mt. Vernon aggregation, and the
local boys are acquiring the finer
points of the game. Thpy are
learning interference, and how
to break .it up. The Times will
tell a different story regarding
these games in November of next
year.
The first killing frost of
become as large ae horse flies.
As was stated by The Times
two weeks ago, the sweet potato
crop this year is a total loss. Not
only Is this true on the black
land, but on the aand, the real
home of this vegetable, they are
tyater logged and rotting. Potato
cureing plants will do very little
business this year. Those dug
before the long siege of wet
weather are good, but as a rule
the crop is not harvested until
after a light* frost. The last
crop of Bermuda hay, which was
fine, has also gone by the board.
On account of continuous rains
and high water, rats and mice
are being driven from the coun-
try into town. In Dallas the
County Agricultural Agent re
ports there is not a mouse or rat
trap for sale on account of the
great demand for them. A
method used to exterminate
them is to attach one end of a
rubber hose to the exhaust pipe
of an automobile and place the
other in a rat hole. This is the
cheapest and easiest method
known to kill them, and was
first practiced by a Lamar Coun-
ty farmer.

Miss Gay Zenola MacLaren, a
reader and impersonator, who
appeared in Dallas recently,
stated she had much rather pre-
sent tier talent to an audience of
men. If heU* audience is mixed
or made up entirely of women,
she spends a few minutes before
the footlights arranging chairs
and tables in order to give the
ladies time to study her dress
and coiffure and determine her
age—especially iter age. If she
did not do this she could not get
their attention centered on her
story until these things had
been given the once over.

knows nothing about the merits
of the proposed increased rates.
Those fighting the. Increased
rates held s meeting st Waco
recently and adopted resolutions
asking fora referendum vote of
the camps in Texas, sod in the
event they voted against the
raise in rates, to get them to co>
operate in a movement to insti-
tute injunction proceedings. At
this meeting none of the sover-
eign delegatee nor other mem-
bers of the head camp were al-
lowed to be present, and it is
said that one woman was torch
bly ejected from the hall. Sov-
ereign Commander W. A. Fraser
and delegates who went to Waco
to defend their actions taken at
the convention at Chicago last
summer, held a meeting in an-
other auditorium and renewed
their faith in the new laws and
iates.
Ata meeting of the Paris Camp
last week resolutions adopted
by the “insurgents” at the Waco
meeting were approved, and a
committee was appointed to visit
camps in Lamar and adjoining
counties to acquaint them with
the new rates and ask their co-
operation in instituting injunc-
tion proceeding.

and says they are necessary .to
the financial welfare of the or-
ganization,
In addition to the increase in
rates, another bone of contention
strongly etreesed by the insur-
gents is the increase in salariee
allowed head camp officers. Sov-
ereign Commander Fraser’s sal-
ary was increased from $12,000
to $25,000 per year, and more re-
muneration was allowed the
other officers. It ie said that
present salaries paid these offiy;

cents each per year. The fight .1
