FORWARDS CHECK FROM SALE OF LAMB Harry Snow Praises Shipment From Dallas County For Cooperative Sale SELMA, May 20. -Special by Leased Wire to The A check. for $1,900 was received at farm bureau headquarters in this city Friday morning from Harry Snow, gothery, for the shipment of lambs sent manager of the on stockyards of Montfrom sheep growers of Dallas county to the cooperative lamb sale held in that city Wednesday, May 18.

In a letter enclosing the check, Mr. Snow said that the shipment from this county was by far the prettiest and choicest that had been moved at any time from the stock yards, during the present season. The sale netted shippers about $10 per head, which is considered by good judges of stock marketing to be an excellent price. The lambs were moved to the eastern markets. Checks were being sent out from farm bureau officials, Friday, to county shippers.

These were J. R. Suter, from the Walnutta Stock Farms, Mat Waugh, J. T. Henry, Dr.

J. G. Donald, R. B. Wallace and Speers Randall of the Marion Junction farming section, and L.

G. Smith, of Minter, well known successful livestock raisers who made up the carloads of Dallas lambs. An extract from the Dairymen's League News of recent date gives the following valuable suggestions as to the value lamb as a contributor to the farmer's income: "As the value of the lamb is first to be considered, let us take notice of the characteristics which tend to make good producer of lambs. While the sheep not a dairy animal, must have some of the dairy characteristics if she is grow a lamb very fast. Then, too, she must be prolific.

Some men say that they believe one good lamb 18 better than two ordinary lambs, but this is not necessarily good reasoning, for under reasonably good care a good sheep should be able to care for two lambs. Ordinarily, while 8 single lamb might sell for $10, pair of lambs would sell for $15 or $16, which is $5 or $6 in favor of the two lambs. "The second product of the sheep 18 the fleece of wool, and at the present time this is quite a consideration, and with the outlook of prosperous times ahead it should be quite a consideration for some time to come. As long as people are busy and earning good wages there will be considerable demand for woolen goods. In the production of wool we need to give rather more thought to quantity than to quality, although both are important.

"At present the difference in price between coarse and fine wool is very little, necessary to get a heavy production. This we will consider later as we take up the various breeds of sheep. "The third product, mutton, is less important, as usually when the sheep is no longer useful as a breeder the carcass is not very valuable. "The fourth value of the sheep is his usefulness as a weed exterminator and is a very Important one. On land that is pastured with sheep very few weeds will be found, except thistles.

Some farmers believe that sheep almost pay their board during the summer months by destroying weeds. "In sheep raising a great many local conditions need to be taken into consideration. The first point 18 the amount of pasture land and whether or not clover and alfalfa do well, as the legumes are very essential in the raising of the sheep. Second, fencing 18 quite important. Sheep are easy to fence it woven wire is used, but it is rather difficult to fence with other wire.

Third, In some sections destructive dogs make sheep raising almost impossible. Hawever, this problem can be overcome if the sheep can be kept near the house or have lane which leads to the house, as they will almost invariably rush toward the house when frightened. "Another consideration 1s the adaptability of the farmer to the care of sheep and his knowledge of them and fondness for them. "When prices of any product are high there is a tendency on the part of the farmers to undertake raising that product. As sheep are high at the present time, there might be some question whether it was wise to start raising now, However, To the outlook is quite favorable for continued high prices.

Of course, sheep men almost all believe that a high protective tariff tends to help prices of sheep wool. Then, too, the prospects of legislation, such as the pure fabric law, would help in keeping up the price of wool." EVERY AVAILABLE THING NEEDED FOR FLOOD RELIEF Publie Health Service Should Be Clear- ing House, Officers Say WASHINGTON, May and territorial public officers, beginning their twenty-fifth annual conference here today with Surgeon General Cumming and other of the United States public health service, participating, adopted a resolution urging all officers attending the conference, on their return home to Ascertain what, in the way of personnel and supplies can be furnished by their states for relief work in the Mississippi Valley flood area.

NEGRO IS LYNCHED BY MISSISSIPPI MOB Alleged Slayer of Young White Farmer Taken From Sheriff at Point of Gun MACON, May Anderson, 32, negro, who is alleged to have confessed that he killed T.

C. Edwards, young white farmer of clitton ville, was lynched by a mob who took him from officers Just across the Mississippi line in the Tombigbe. swamps late today, The mob followed the officers from Tuscaloosa, where Anderson was arrested last night. There were 800 or 500 men In the crowd which forced Sheriff Adams of Noxubee county to release the pris A oner at the point of a gun. They took him Into the swamps a short distance from the road where more than 200 shots were fired into his body.

Charles Richards, lawyer of Macon, who was with Sheriff T. B. Adams of Noxubee county, when the negro was seized by the mob, said tonight, there were 300 to 500 men in the mob and that the lynching took place in Mississippi, across the state line from Pickensville, Ala. The negro was arrested today at Elrod, and removed to Tuscaloosa. Sheriff Adams and his party left Tuscaloosa with Anderson this afternoon after being assured that no harm would befall the negro if taken to Macon.

FOR THE CHILDREN By BLANCHES SILVER Use of Cosmetics Detriment to Health, Speaker Tells American Medical Body WASHINGTON, May pink' cheeks and Cupid's bow lips are the modern refinement of garish markings among savages and are made possible through the tattoor's art at the risk health, Dr. Marvin D. Shie, of Cleveland, declared today at the closing sessions of the American Medical association's annual meeting.

The spread of disease through tattooers and the infection of tattooed spots by the use of non-sterile instruments and unhygienic substances for coloring, he said, have made tattooing and its removal a problem for physicians. The untoward results of the process, it was brought out, have been gangrene, tetanus, leprosy, amputation, tuberculosis and diseases of the blood. Those who attempt to enhance and preserve their comeliness by the use of cosmetics also came in for warnings, Dr. E. R.

Tauber, of Cincinnati, telling delegates that "beauty parlors have at last reached the million dollar class and as a result flappers, middle aged ingenues, and galloping grandmothers have done away with hairpins, clothes, corset and cotton stockings, and trebled the length of toilet goods counters. "Cosmetics fashion," he said, "inculcate a calm contempt for physical well-being; their only physical well-seeming. There is a wanton disregard for human health and more often fraud and deception in the use of certain cosmetics. Many of the preparations are primarily fraudulent and the cost of this kind of preparation is out of all proportion to the motual value of the ingredients."

Over near the fence on a tall weed Dotty spied something new. A great big web was carefully stretched around several of the weed's leaves and crowd of we little caterpillars Were moving around in and out of the web. "Well, of all things!" Dotty exclaimed and she was just about to destroy the web with a stick when tiny hand touched her arm. Glancing around Dotty looked Into a smiling elfin's face.

"Why, Happy Giggles! Look, some bad spider has captured those dear little butterfly children and they can't get out." "Don't you believe we can't get out." called out one little caterpillar as he carefully crawled out of the webby house and nodded his funny little head at Dotty and Happy Giggles. time a Tent Caterpillar can't ret out of his own tent, It's time for him to turn Into a butterfly. Hello there, Happy, who's your friend?" "Oh, Mr. Tent Caterpillar, this 1. Dotty," replied the elfin.

You 800 we have funny notion that we must keep the whole family together. There must be at least a hundred of us hatched out this last time.

We lived for while on the underside of the leaves then as we grew our bed became too small for us so we built ourselves this lovely tent. Now we'll all live here together until grOW too big for this tent. Then we'll bulld another one." "But do you just go in there now and stay?" questioned Dotty, "Can't you ever get out? "Of course we can," replied Mr. Tent Caterpillar, "Don't you see these little doorways? Why we go out every day to feed and come back to sleep. The other day the storm tore down one oorner of our tent and you should have seen all of us mending it.

Our mother would be proud of us if she could see us now." "Indeed I am mighty proud of you!" laughed another voice and lovely big butterfly with yellow and black wings settled on a weed beside Dotty. "How are you, Happy Giggles? Don't you think I have a lovely family?" "You surely have splendid family, Mrs. Baltimore," laughed the elfin. "This Is Dotty. She lives In the white house here." "I'm very grateful, Dotty, that you didn't destroy the tent." said Mrs.

Baltimore Butterfly, "This la the last web house they will bulld for some time now as It la just about time for them to go into their long sleep.

In another fortnight each will turn Into lovely Baltimore Butterfly, good, youngsters, and I'll see you later," and spreading her pretty yellow and black wings the proud mother sailed away. Dotty and Happy Giggles sat down and watched the happy little caterpillars until her mamma called her lunch. and al lof them walked.
