thoroughly and take bath. A few
buckets of water should also be
poured over the mule. With these
precautions we have never known
either sickness or injury to follow
the use of the poison.
Whatever plan may be adopted
for destroying the worms it should
be determined upon and prepared
for in advance; A liberal supply of
the poison should be purchased, and
the apparatus for distributing it all
for work, as "time is money" in
dealing with cotton worms, and a
delay of a day in applying the poi
son may make difference of hum
dreds of dollars in the crop. The
fields should be closely watched and
work commenced on the very day
when the worms make their first ap-
pearance. A single application Of
the poison, if not followed too soon
by rain, is usually all that is neces-
say to fully protect the crop, and
the expense of this need not be more
than fifty cents per acre.
In dealing with the worms, more
than in almost any other farm work,
promptness and care are essential
to success, and with these there
need be but little fear of loss from
what has been the most troublesome
enemy of the cotton crop.

radially from the centre to the out
side of the log. Suppose a log to be
split into four pieces, each of these
pieces is sawn diagonally so that the
grain rings run through, instead of
the circles running into, part way
through and out upon the same side
of the board.
Quarter-sawn lumber will not
warp in drying, neither will it yield
80 readily to changes of weather. It
has the disadvantage of being more
expensive, as in saving each quarter
a narrow board ia first taken off,
then one little wider. The boards
increase in width until the middle
of the quarter is reached, making
the widest board equal to half the
diameter of the tree. The narrow
boards may be glued up into wide
strips, but shows considerable sap,
and they cannot be used in some
kinds of work.
To prove that the circles or sap
rings cause curling during the sea-
soning process, it is only necessary
to take such curled boards and wet
the concave side, or apply heat to
convex side. If each or both be done,
the boards will straighten out forth
with. This method is often taken
advantage of by carpenters in work
ing twisted or warped boards. The
seasoning process is also controlled
by frequently turning boards over so
that each side may receive just
enough heat and air to keep the
boards hat.-Woodworker.

THE COTTON LEAF WORM.
(Aletia argillacea.)

BULLETIN NO. IL, MISSISSIPPI Ex-
PERTINENT STATION, s. M. TRACY,
~. a DIRECTOR.
nURING the seasons of 1888 and
1889 the Station made number
of tests in order to determine
the cheapest and most effective
method for destroying the cotton
leaf worm, and in all cases it was
found that if Paris Green was busted
over the leaves, even very lightly,
the crop was fully protected.
For small area we have found
no better method than that described
in Bulletin No. 2 of this station,
which is as follows:
Make two sacks of heavy cloth,
each about ten inches long and four
in diameter, open the whole length
OF one side and firmly sewed at the
ends. We have found "S OF. Osna-
burg" the best cloth for the purpose.
Take a strip of oak or other strong
wood about one and half by two
inches, and five feet long, and bore
. one-inch hole FIVE inches from
each end. Tack one of the sacks to
each end ofthe pole, fastening one Of
the edges of the opening to each of
the narrow sides of the pole, so that
the sacks will be in a position as
shown in the sketch.
POLE.

STARKvILLE, MISS, JULY II, 1890.

With pole and sacks as describ-
ed, one man and mule can poison
from fifteen to twenty acres per day.
Where more rapid work is desired,
we have found no other machine
equal to the "Roach Poison Dis
tributor," made by J. P. Roach &
Co., of Vicksburg, Miss. This ma
chine is made like two-wheeled
sulky, with fan attachment geared
to the wheels and connected with a
reservoir containing the poison.
With this machine seven rows can
be thoroughly busted at once, and
by changing, two teams and drivers
can dust seventy five acres per day.
The machine costs about fifty dol
lars, the price of one bale of cotton,
and is the most satisfactory machine
for thefwork we have found.
Whether the pole and sacks, or
the machine, should be used, will
depend on the number of acres to
be busted. After the worm makes
its appearance it spreads very rap
idly, and it is important that the
whole plantation be gone over at
once. If this can be done within
two days with poles and sacks, that
will be the cheaper plan, but if the
worms are likely to spread faster
than the field can be treated in this
way, then it will be better to buy
machine.
With either plan it is best to do
the work in the evening, or early in
the morning when the leaves are
wet with dew, as the poison adheres
much better at that time, and often
it will be found best to work all
night, when there is sufficient light.
It makes but little difference how
much of the poison is used, provi-
ded it is we'll distributed go as to
cover every leaf. If busted over the
leaves evenly, we have found it best
to use about two pounds per acre
with the pole and sack plan, and
one pound with the machine. In
using the machine it is best to use
three pounds of -four to one of the
poison, as the -four assists material
ly in making the poison adhere to
the leaves. When the pole and
sacks are used the workman should
be careful to keep the poison from
blowing over himself more than can
be avoided, and when the work is
done he should shake his clothing

The 500 cross-cut on the Cumberland. at
Castle, has not yet reached the vein. This
cross-cut is looked upon as the crucial test
of the camp. If the vein is found to be as
good at the depth of 500 feet as above, then
Castle will probably boom more than ever.
There was considerable activity in o. r.

ceived from the superintendent at the mine
that the lead was found to be fully az wide

and for the purpose of prospecting the
vein.
A gentleman just in from the Logging
creek mining camp, near Barker. states
that they have some very good carbonate
ores there. An assay of ore from one of
the most promising prospects gave returns
of $3.50 in silver and thirty-five per cent

It is rumored that there will be further
developments as to the proceedings of the
jury in the jackson case when the board of
pardons gives hearing on July s. Thus
far little has been heard from the members
of the jury, but it is said that several state
ments will appear at the hearing. Yester-
day Governor Toole received the following
letter, dated Minot, N. D., June Is, 1880:
Hon. Governor Toole, of Montana:
Dear sir: We, the undersigned, respect
fully petition you to commute the death
sentence of Albert jackson. who is now in
the county Jail at Helena, Montana, under
sentence of death. to be hanged on the 2lst
instant. to that of life imprisonment. We,
the undersigned, have known Albert Jack
son for a number of years, and have always
found him to be a straightforward, honest
and upright in his dealings, and we sin
cerely hope and trust that you will kindly
commute his sentence to life imprisonment.
for which we will ever pray.

Here is another letter received in this city
some time ago. 1t is given exactly as re-

is writ" it is rather unique:
Three years ago jackson no is now troided

If this statement is true it indicates that
Jackson has a very bad temper. Thus far
it is the only letter presented showing the
bad character of the defendant.

OTHERS WHO SHOULD Be REACHED, TOO

From the Ne1uGTk Journal.
The sentence of one year in jail of the
repeater convicted in Jersey City is a
f~oretaste for other scoundrels who have
debauched elections in Jersey City OF
what they will get when they are brought
before Judge Lippincott for their de.
serts.
In sentencing this criminal yesterday
Judge Liprsacatt said.-..It has come to
pass, and the knowledge is now the com
mon property of all. that the path of po-
county leads through a cor
rupted and stuffed ballot box. 1t is
the interest of those so preferred and
elected to office, to aid those who commit
these ~dastard1y outrages against the
elective franchise. y y 4 \ You, Dean,
are but the tool of others, but you know
the wrong you did-you were, perhaps, a
weak. but a willing, tool. Others, higher
in social and political positions, gave you
the method by which you were to com
nit the offences you are charged with.
Your masters, if all could be reached,
would be subject to greater punishment
than can be imposed upon you.
Repeating is only n method of out
raging the elective franchise in which
such tools as Deane are used by .sothers
higher in social and political positions"
Bribery, SO common everywhere, is a far
more dangerous and a lnore detestable
crime. The ten thousand dollars placed
in this county last November within
t~wenty-four hours of the election was in
tended for the purposes of bribery. and
the men who contributed the money knew
it. The briDing was to be done by tools
like Deane, who came in direct contact
with purchasable voters. Unfortunately,
while the law can reach and punish the
repeaters and ballot box suffers, the men
nish the DOODLE" without which there
could be no bribing, go scot free.
