The Cotton Worm.

That one drug house in Vicksburp
should receive orders for fifteen tons.
o. $4,000 pounds. o. paris green In one
day demonstrates the extent Of the ap-
prehension felt by the cotton planters
concerning the cotton worms in the
large area of country tributary to or
trading with that city. With the cot
ton worms SO formidable in their second
generation, the third generation, which
forms vast increase over its progeni-
tors, may do very serious damage. 1t
is extremely unfortunate, il it be true.
that the available supply OF paris green
has been already exhausted. 1t is like
ly that far more than the amount al
ready used will be needed for a month
to come. Where these pests are un-
checked by poison, in their third gener-
alton, they have been known to rayage
cotton fields and leave the stalks as bare
OF foliage in the latter part of August
and September as they are in early Feb
ruary before being pulled up and
burned, preparatory to the planting of
a new crop.

Eastern Beggars.

Beggary throughout the East is a
thriving profession. There are guilds
beggars, besides the numerous co com.
munities OF dervishes who are semi
religious mendicsnts. Many families
have been beggars for generations, and
and are meDdicants from choice. Some
of these professional beggars are actu-
ally wealthy. Four. .and-twenty years
ago the writer we'll remembers a case.
The Chief Beggar (the title was not
conferred in derisionl gave bis daughter
In marriage to a substantial farmer.
The girls dowry consisted of two free
hold houses, the rooms of which were
entirely filled with dry pieces of bread.
and the sales OF these begged crnsts
subsequently, realized q considerable
sum, being disposed of as food for cat
tie. 1t must be remembered that in
the East there is no organized charity.
that most Mussulmans are exceedingly
charitable, many giving away a fifth
and some even a third of their income.
Under such circumstances it is not TO
be wondered at tie professional beggar
tbrives.

Seed Corn.

1t IS the usual rule for farmers In saw
Ing corn seed 20 select that most thor.
oughiy ripened. This. says a promi-
nent agricultural paper is wise, because
1t tends to make the crop earlier, but il
Is not necessary to make the seed grow
1hae the corn should be glazed. Unripe
corn, If thoroughly dried, will shrlyel
badly, but it will grow not only as
quickly, but possibly even more so. than
that which has fully matured. 1t is
easier TO select the frst ears early in
the season than after harvest, and by
selecting very early the corn may be SO
thoriGShly dried, before cold weather
that it will be impossible for cold to
