CRddO and DeSOtO Parishes.
The Shreveport Gazette furnishes us these
news items:
We are informed by planter from De-
Soto parish that the cotton worm is rapidly
stripping off the leaves in his neighbor-
hood. He stated that there was about two
hundred pounds of open cotton to the acre,
and heavy crop of bolls. There was no
prospect OF top crop.
The worm has made but little progress
in other portions of the country which
trade at Shreveport, and the prospect fer
an average crop is still good. All &C.
counts from Northern and Eastern Texas
are very cheering.
The weather during the past week has
been favorable, as very little rain has
fallen, and the weather has been clear for
several days.
The cool nights Will have tendency to
check the growth of the plant, and to has
ten the maturity Of the bolls.
The Southern Pacific railroad has taken
the contract for conveying the mails be-
tween Shreveport and Marshall, daily, for
the next twelve months.
This contract makes assurance doubly
sure that regular daily trips will be made
over the road every day. Parties from
Marshall can come to Shreveport and have
three hours in which to transact their bust
ness, and return the same day.
